After agitating Wu Shaoyin, Shen Hua did not stay for long either. She allowed herself to be pushed back by Xue Shuyue.
However, on her way passing the rockery, she overheard the whispering of maids from the residence.
"Has the Marchioness of Marquis Chengbo actually come?"
"How could it be fake? Although she sent over a greeting card, Madam had already ordered that no outside visitors be seen these days. Yet there she was, stubbornly not leaving outside, with intentions unknown. Unfortunately, given her noble status, she couldn't be sent away, so Madam had no choice but to invite her in."
"Wasn't she supposedly sick? After Princess You Ning's affair, as her mother-in-law, she even had to go to the palace to ask for her return, and then the Princess got scolded by the Empress Dowager. How could she just casually pay a visit to our residence?"
Xue Shuyue, well accustomed to such oddities, pursed her lips and pushed Shen Hua away.
Shen Hua hadn't heard enough!
