Lord Guan was afraid she would cause trouble.

Before she could speak, he quickly explained to the old lady, "It's like this, a few days ago our Shuli said she was coming to the north of the city to see her sister."

"She said she would return to Chengnan that day, but three or four days have passed now, and we don't know where she has gone."

"Oh?" The old lady was startled. "You mean Miss Guan hasn't returned to the south of the city yet?"

"Yes," said Master Guan, his face full of worry.

Behind her, the second concubine walked up with a sour face and said irritably, "Where is Guan Shuqing?"

The old lady frowned. "And who is this?"

"She is me..."

Before Master Guan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the second concubine, "I am Guan Shuqing's mother."

Upon hearing this, the old lady quickly greeted her with a smile, "So you're my in-laws."

She didn't appreciate it, saying, "Don't give me that, I'm looking for Guan Shuqing."

this……

Seeing that her attitude was not good, the old lady thought to herself, "This person is Guan Shuli's biological mother. She probably shares the same views as her."

hehe.

Since that's the case, the old lady decided not to stand on ceremony with her.

She walked over and simply invited Master Guan to sit down.

As for that second concubine of Guan...

The old lady turned her face away and said calmly, "Shuqing is still not awake."

"Not awake?" No one greeted her, so the second concubine went over and sat down next to Master Guan.

At that time, Master Guan told her not to say anything, but she wouldn't listen.

“My daughter is missing, and this must be related to Guan Shuqing.”

Originally, the second concubine was determined to have her daughter marry into the Shen family.

But now the plan has fallen through.

The second concubine no longer needed to be polite to the Shen family.

Upon hearing this, the old lady's expression changed drastically.

Suddenly, she slammed her hand on the table. "Shuqing, Shuqing, I think you're all ganging up on the Shen family."

The Guan couple were startled.

"Madam." Master Guan didn't want to offend her; it was this wretched woman who kept making a scene.

Now that things have come to this, the old lady feels that if she continues to ignore it...

I'm afraid that if you feel wronged while expressing your feelings, you'll have nowhere to turn for help.

“A few days ago, your youngest daughter suddenly came to my Shen family and kept saying that my daughter-in-law was having an affair with another man.”

"I forgave her for the sake of her sentimentality."

"But that night, she put poisonous snakes in my son and daughter-in-law's room."

"What?" Master Guan's heart skipped a beat.

"I can't tolerate this."

The old lady snorted coldly. If she had known her mother would come looking for trouble at this time, she should have called the police to arrest her that night.

The second concubine didn't believe it, saying, "Where would a poisonous snake come from in this place?"

She turned her head away, her face sour, and said, "In my opinion, this whole thing was orchestrated by Guan Shuqing alone."

"She's trying to frame my daughter."

"Heh." The old lady narrowed her eyes, expressionless. "No wonder your daughter is so different from Shuqing."

"What do you mean?" The second concubine slammed her hand on the table and stood up.

Beside her, Master Guan stood up angrily and pointed at her, yelling, "Shut up!"

Early in the morning, she started making a ruckus at the Shen family home without considering the circumstances.

This is outrageous!

That shout chilled the second concubine's heart.

"You, Guan Yi, now that you have this wonderful daughter Guan Shuqing, you're neglecting us, mother and daughter, huh?"

"I……"

"Shuli has disappeared. We don't even know if she's alive or dead. As her father, how can you not be worried at all?"

“I’m anxious.” How could he not be anxious? “I just want you to be able to distinguish right from wrong. This matter, this matter has no evidence, how can you wrongly accuse Shuqing?”
