Chapter 884: Catching Adultery
Editor: Henyee Translations
The next moment, Nanny Xu made a prompt decision and said to the old woman beside her, “Call those two groups back. There’s no need to search.”
“W-why is that?”
Nanny Xu did not explain further. She only hurriedly said, “I’ll go back to the residence first.”
Then, she returned to the Zhou Mansion and did not dare to stop for a moment to look for Mrs. Zhou in the main courtyard.
She handed the note to Mrs. Zhou. The latter took a look and was equally shocked. “Is what this says true?”
“We’ll know once we take a look.”
Mrs. Zhou suddenly stood up. There was anger on her face, but there was also a faint joy.
She took a deep breath and asked Nanny Xu, “The butler is back?”
“He’s back.”
“Alright, let’s go. Bring him along.”
Then, Mrs. Zhou came in with Nanny Xu and the butler.
Other than them, there were also a few people who came in.
The waiter of the inn saw that they were coming aggressively and was about to ask when Nanny Xu stuffed silver into his hands. Then, she said that the servants in the residence had stolen the property of the residence and hid here. They were here to arrest them.
The waiter looked at the silver and did not ask further.
Mrs. Xu said to an unfamiliar old woman, “Go up and take a look. Is Mrs. Ren here?”
The old woman nodded and came down after a while.
She nodded at Mrs. Zhou. “She’s indeed here.”
Mrs. Zhou said to the housekeeper, “I am right. Concubine Gu and Mrs. Ren have done something shameful. Master might have been harmed by them.”
The butler asked, “Then what does Madam plan to do?”
Mrs. Zhou had a cold smile on her face. She raised her hand and pointed at the two of them, whispering a few words.
Gu Yundong and Tong Shuitao were sitting a little further away. Even though Tong Shuitao had stretched her ears, she still could not hear clearly.
