Su Jinyue bowed respectfully and replied calmly, "Grandma, once the matter is investigated, my granddaughter will not feel wronged."

Seeing that Lan Shao had confessed her guilt, Lu Wu also cried beside her, "I was forced to do this, please forgive me, old lady!"

Old Lady Su thought for a moment and said slowly, "If that's the case, let's just forget about it."

When Liu heard that the matter was going to be dropped, she said unhappily, "If we just drop it like this, what about Qiaoshan and those fakes?!"

Su Jinyue also looked at Old Lady Su with concern, "Grandma, although this girl can be saved, this fake is indeed a problem."

"Forget about the others, these are all gifts from His Majesty and the Empress in the Palace, and they were given to my colleagues in the Palace as if they were genuine items."

"If this matter gets out of hand, and someone dares to exchange the things bestowed by His Majesty, not only Lan Shaoyao will be sentenced to death, but our Marquisate will not be able to escape either!"

"In this case, my father is already at the border, and it may be a long time before he returns to the court."

Su Jinyue's words made Old Madam Su hesitate.

"So what do you think we should do?"

Su Zhiyao felt something was wrong and she really understood the significance of Su Jinyue's words.

She didn't want to get involved in the misfortune of the Marquis' Mansion, but if this happened to her, it would be a different story!

Su Zhiyao rolled her eyes and suggested to the old lady, "Since my sister is so selfless, why not donate her own dowry and buy those things back?"

Jiang Caiping frowned slightly, thinking that this method was inappropriate.

The eyes of Mrs. Liu and Old Madam Su suddenly brightened up, and it was not impossible.

Su Jinyue had expected that Su Zhiyao would use this trick to disgust her, so she smiled faintly and said, "I don't care. For the sake of the Marquis' Mansion, I can also give up my share of the dowry."

"But grandma, I'm going to marry the legitimate son of the Duke of Zhenguo. By then, my granddaughter won't even have a dowry. I wonder what the people in the capital will say about our mansion?"

Just when everyone's eyes were focused on Su Jinyue, hurried footsteps were heard at the door again.

A servant came in hurriedly, panting and said, "Old Madam, the Duke of Zhenguo is here!"

There was a sudden uproar in the hall!

"The Mansion of the Duke of Zhenguo?! This matter actually alarmed them?" Liu exclaimed in a low voice.

Liu's expression changed slightly, "What should I do?"

Old Lady Su slammed the table and said, "What are you yelling about? You look like you have never experienced anything!"

After saying that, Old Lady Su looked at the boy and asked, "Who is coming from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?"

"Reporting to the old lady, it's the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo."

Old Lady Su's eyes were stern, "Hurry up and ask someone to come in!"

Her expression turned cold, and she glanced at the maids on the ground, "Madame Song, quickly take these maids to the woodshed and lock them up!"

"Wait until they leave before making any decisions!"

"yes!"

After everyone was taken away, the hall regained its calm for a moment.

The footsteps at the door were getting closer and closer. As the door curtain was lifted, a lady in gorgeous clothes walked in.

"Madam Su, long time no see." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo smiled slightly.

His eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one, finally stopping on Su Jinyue, and he nodded slightly to her.

"The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo has arrived. I'm sorry for not coming to greet you in person." Old Madam Su stood up, a trace of kindness returned to her face, and she bowed slightly.

"I just came to visit you on the way, there's no need to be so polite, old lady." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo spoke in a gentle voice, but her majesty could not be ignored.

Su Jinyue also stepped forward and saluted, "Meet the Madam."

"Jin Yue, no need to be so polite. I came here to discuss something with you." Lady Zhenguo said bluntly.

When they heard that they were not here for the matter of the Marquis' Mansion, the others in the hall immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Zhiyao's eyes were fixed in the direction of the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, and jealousy was rising in her heart!

"What's the matter?" Su Jinyue was a little confused, but her face remained calm.

"I wonder if I could invite you to my house for a chat?" The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo's words were calm, but full of profound meaning.

When everyone in the hall heard this, they had different thoughts.

Lady Zhenguo, the Duke of Zhenguo, didn't want to tell them the purpose of this trip in front of them.

Su Jinyue silently clenched the handkerchief in her hand. She was extremely jealous but did not dare to show it!

"There are still some things in the mansion that I'm afraid I need grandma's approval." Su Jinyue smiled brightly and said humbly.

"Jin Yue, you kid..." Lady Zhenguo sighed softly and turned to Old Lady Su, "Would you be willing to let Jin Yue visit my house?"

"It is Jin Yue's honor to be appreciated by the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo!" Old Madam Su was overjoyed and readily agreed.

As for the troubles in the mansion, Old Madam Su wished that Su Jinyue was not there.

Old Lady Su said to Su Jinyue, "When you go to the Duke of Zhenguo's residence, you must abide by the rules!"

Su Jinyue nodded obediently, "Jinyue saves that."

"That's great. You can follow the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo today."

"Yes, grandma." Su Jinyue agreed obediently.

After Su Jinyue left, everyone in the hall dispersed, and Old Madam Su immediately sent someone to call Su Jingnian over.

"Grandma is calling me?" Su Jingnian rushed in, his eyes dark.

Old Lady Su frowned, "What have you been doing these days? Why do you look so haggard?"

Su Jingnian lowered his head slightly, feeling somewhat guilty, "Grandson... Grandson has not slept well these past few days because of Su Jinyue's matter."

"Um."

Old Lady Su did not doubt and asked, "Have you found out anything?"

"We did find out something." Su Jingnian told him about Su Zhiyao and Su Jinyue leaving the house in the middle of the night.

"She said she was working for His Majesty, but I think she might be lying!"

Su Jingnian said, "It's a big deal for a woman to sneak out of the house in the middle of the night. My mother knew about it but didn't discipline her. I think it's up to my grandmother to make the decision."

Old Lady Su frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Do you know where she went?"

"This grandson is still unclear. Please give him some more time so that he can be sent up for investigation."

Old Madam Su waved her hand and asked Su Jingnian to leave first.

Seeing that he had gotten away with it, Su Jingnian came out of the front hall and headed straight for Su Zhiyao's yard.

Seeing Su Jingnian, Su Zhiyao's Chun'er consciously retreated and stood outside the door to guard the two of them.

The two of them hugged each other for a while, then rolled into the bed together.

Su Zhiyao raised her hand and gently pushed Su Jingnian's chin, pouting and saying, "Don't mess with me, I'm already annoyed."

Seeing Su Zhiyao's coquettish look, Su Jingnian couldn't help but peck her on the face, "Who has made Jiaojiao angry again?"

Now in front of Su Jingnian, Su Zhiyao no longer pretended and snorted.

"It's all Su Jinyue's fault!"

"I could have taken her down with the things in her yard, but I didn't expect it would be those idiots who did it!"

Su Jingnian hugged Su Zhiyao, his eyes sinister, "There's no need to rush."

"How can you not be anxious!"

Su Zhiyao turned around in Su Jingnian's arms, faced the man in front of her, raised her hand and gently punched his chest.

"She is about to marry into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. How can we have any chance to deal with her in the future?"
