"Resurrection Hall?"
After hearing Su Xuerou's words, Old Madam Jiang's expression changed slightly.
He changed his mind and then asked, "That's not the Ye family's clinic."
"What's wrong? Did something happen there?"
Because of the reward, Madam Jiang's attitude towards Ye Jintang has clearly improved.
As long as Ye Jintang behaves himself, she doesn't want to dwell too much on the past.
No matter what, Ye Jintang is the mistress of the Marquis's mansion. If some things really escalate, it might implicate the entire mansion.
Madam Jiang still only knew about these things.
While speaking, Su Xuerou kept observing Madam Jiang's expression. She found it strange that in the past, her mother-in-law would get angry as soon as she heard Ye Jintang's name, but now it was different.
They even calmly asked her questions. Mu Bai was like this before, so why is Old Madam Jiang the same?
After all that groundwork, Su Xuerou was unwilling to give up so easily.
When faced with Madam Jiang's doubts, Su Xuerou feigned concern and winked at the maid beside her.
Upon receiving the signal, the maid immediately said, "Madam, you must already know that the Huishengtang Pharmacy you run has been shut down by the government. I heard that this matter has even alarmed the Dali Temple."
"What?"
Madam Jiang was startled, seemingly not expecting things to escalate to such a serious degree.
"Why would they seal it up when everything was fine? What about the Ye family? Go and bring them here!"
"Madam, Madam hasn't returned to the manor for several days since the incident at Huishengtang. She only suddenly returned yesterday. This servant..."
I heard that the lady had a conflict with the Marquis as soon as she returned to the manor.
"Cui'er, shut up."
Su Xuerou saw that things had been discussed enough before she spoke.
“Mother-in-law, Cui’er didn’t mean anything by it just now, please don’t take offense.”
Su Xuerou put on an understanding and considerate act once again.
"What do you mean by 'unintentional'? Xue Rou, you tell me, is this really true or not?"
Madam Jiang was clearly angered by the maid's words and questioned Su Xuerou.
This situation was exactly what Su Xuerou wanted. She had come here to make Old Madam Jiang angry because of Ye Jintang.
“Mother-in-law, I think there must be something going on with my sister.”
Madam Jiang frowned. "You mean to say that Madam Ye is in the manor right now?"
"yes."
“You guys come with me. I’m going to get to the bottom of this with the Ye family.”
Other things are one thing, but now the shop has been sealed off, and even the Dali Temple has been alerted. Who knows if Mu Bai will be implicated because of Ye Jintang's matter?
As a mother, she would never tolerate anything related to Jiang Mubai's career.
After saying that, Madam Jiang headed towards Ye Jintang's courtyard.
At this moment, Green Lotus discovered the note left by Ye Jintang there. She wondered why she hadn't seen her mistress in the house, realizing that she wasn't in the mansion.
What could make a young lady leave so late at night is certainly no small matter.
Just as Green Lotus was pondering this, she heard hurried footsteps outside.
Green Lotus paused, wondering if it was Miss returning.
No, she realized something was wrong just as she was about to go out. Her young mistress would never be in such a hurry. Who was the person outside?
"Ye family member, come out here!"
Old Madam Jiang's voice came through, accompanied by Su Xuerou's voice.
Upon hearing this, Lühe's heart skipped a beat. Why was the old lady here at this time, and with the second wife as well?
Normally, Green Lotus would not be afraid, but the young lady is not in the manor at the moment. If she discovers anything amiss, things will be terrible.
However, since Madam Jiang has come, it would be unacceptable to remain silent. We must find a way to buy time for Miss to return.
Thinking of this, Lühe strode out. As soon as she stepped out of the courtyard, she saw Su Xuerou with Old Madam Jiang by her side, and two old women following behind them.
"This servant greets the old lady." Green Lotus stepped forward and bowed to Old Madam Jiang.
Su Xuerou was waiting for Lühe to bow to her, but after Lühe bowed to Old Madam Jiang, she did not make any other movements, as if she was deliberately ignoring her.
Realizing this possibility, Su Xuerou was furious. When she looked at Lühe, she felt strange, knowing that she had whipped this brat several times and even made her swallow pills.
Her rapid recovery was entirely due to the tonics sent by the Minister's Mansion. But what did Lühe have? She was just a maid. Could it be that Ye Jintang did something?
Su Xuerou found it increasingly strange, just then Old Madam Jiang spoke up.
"Go and call Ye Shi out here!"
With a stern face, Madam Jiang gave Green Lotus a command.
"Madam, my wife is still resting."
Before Lühe could answer, Su Xuerou angrily scolded, "You ill-mannered maid! Didn't you hear your mother-in-law say to call your sister out?"
"What, you're going to disobey these words too?"
"Yes, in principle, as the mistress of the house, Madam should pay her respects to the old lady every day. Although the old lady was exempted from these duties later, she was not yet fully awake at the time and was really lacking in manners."
The old woman's maidservant embellished the story.
Hearing this, Su Xuerou became even more furious.
She wondered why, since she entered the mansion, she was the only one who got up early every day to pay her respects to the old woman. Logically, Ye Jintang, as the mistress of the house, should have done so.
There's actually a trick to this.
"Madam, is Madam truly resting now? How about I tell Madam about your visit later when she wakes up?"
"presumptuous!"
Su Xuerou was about to step forward and slap Lühe across the face.
But after what had happened before, when Su Xuerou approached, Lühe was already on guard and moved to the other side of Old Madam Jiang.
This way, even if Su Xuerou really wanted to take action, she would have to think twice.
Su Xuerou's plan failed, and her gaze turned sinister. She never expected this lowly maid to be so cunning.
If she weren't currently forced to feign docility in front of this old woman, this brat wouldn't have been able to escape under any other circumstances.
Thinking of the consequences of taking action, Su Xuerou held back her anger no matter how furious she was.
As if struck by a thought, Su Xuerou asked Lühe, "Lühe, why are you being so secretive, not calling your sister out? Could it be that something unusual has happened inside, or perhaps..."
Su Xuerou feigned surprise, leaving much to the imagination.
Madam Jiang's expression darkened further, especially after hearing Su Xuerou's words, she became even more determined to go inside.
Green Lotus instinctively tried to stop her, but Su Xue Rou wouldn't give her that chance again, and ordered the two old women behind her.
The two old women blocked Lühe's way, allowing her and Old Madam Jiang to enter Ye Jintang's room together.
Green Lotus was startled, and soon Old Madam Jiang came out from inside.
