In the Lianfu Garden, Old Mrs. Xia was reclining on the Arhat Bed for a nap.
Mrs. Zhen lifted the curtain and entered with her two daughters.
Hearing the noise, Old Mrs. Xia slowly opened her eyes. When her gaze fell on Mrs. Zhen's furrowed brows, some of the irritation in her heart dissipated.
Mrs. Zhen had always been mindful of the rules. Today, coming in a hurry and even disturbing her afternoon nap, there must be a reason.
Old Mrs. Xia gestured for the three to sit down and sent Lanzhi to guard the outer room.
"Speak." Old Mrs. Xia said.
Mrs. Zhen lowered her voice, detailing Mu Lianxiao's reassignment and Du Yunluo's suspicions.
Old Mrs. Xia's expression darkened.
The head of the household cannot help but think broadly. Old Mrs. Xia had already suspected that the second room of the Marquis Mansion would give Du Yunluo a hard time, but she hadn't expected they would be so bold.
"Yunluo, do you remember what I told you before?" Old Mrs. Xia said in a somber tone.
