Du Shan glared fiercely at Xu Keke and the second concubine, eating the rice in her bowl grain by grain. She watched them leave.

Xu Keke called the second concubine to the sycamore tree in the courtyard. Looking at the windows upstairs, coincidentally, the third concubine seemed to be doing much better; she was standing by the window, watching them, just like last time.

I don't know if she can see it clearly, but Xu Keke smiled at her.

Xu Keke called out her second concubine to ask about Xibao. When she learned that Xibao had simply been sent home, hadn't been beaten, and had even received her wages, Xu Keke felt somewhat relieved.

Seeing Xu Keke about to leave, the second concubine whispered, "The person the third young lady found didn't just go to the ancestral home. I heard he also went to other places in the countryside to bring back messages. That person came to see the third young lady this morning, and the steward told me about it."

Xu Keke laughed. The manager Du Bingtian found was not as good as Manager Liu; he had a big mouth.

"Grandmother is here, and you're still helping me. Why?" Xu Keke asked directly, not wanting to beat around the bush.

The second concubine quickly said, "If the fourth young lady can marry Mr. Jin, I will do anything you ask."

"It's not up to me to decide who someone wants to marry."

The second concubine looked around and said, "I know, but just don't get too close to Commissioner Li."

Xu Keke stared at the second concubine for a long time, unable to understand what the second concubine was thinking.

Not just anywhere in the world, but even in this city, the Du family isn't the only one with girls of marriageable age. Why would she assume that someone would definitely marry a daughter from the Du family?
