Chương 71: Offense is the best defense 2

The Duke's mansion

Just as Zhu Fengyin predicted, the next day during the routine early morning visits to her mother-in-law, Madam Lu announced that they would be attending the commander's mansions garden party.

Just like the first day of her marriage, Su Liya was woken by her maid Rong Rong at daybreak to prepare to visit her mother-in-law. She had gone to bed a little late, so she felt a little drowsy on waking. She allowed Baozhai and Rong Rong to doll her up, she was too weak to struggle. It was during days like today that she appreciated her change in station.

She had a light breakfast before leaving for Madam Lu's Courtyard at the other side of the compound. Unlike the last time she paid her respects to her mother-in-law, Lu Yaozhu didn't come with her instead she went alone.
