While being escorted by the city guards out of Minshun Boulevard, Elderly Lady looked back unresignedly at the marquis's estate's tightly shut main door.
On the contrary, Xu Jiao didn't say anything, but her eyes were flickering with avarice as she stared back scorchingly at the marquis's estate.
She understood the eldest branch couple too well. They were people who simply couldn't harden their hearts.
She reckoned that it wouldn't even take three days for the Qiao Zhongbang couple to give in and call on them to visit!
Ultimately, the old hag was a bargaining chip in her hands. As long as she had the old hag in hand, she could assure that the eldest branch couple would be submissive and docile.
Thus, how could she allow the old lady to continue lingering at the marquis's estate?
Even if she had to forcibly seize her, she definitely had to wrest control over the old lady!
