What does Mrs mean?
Missus (Mrs. or Mrs) is a title that comes before a married woman's name.
Mrs originated as a contraction for Mistress, the feminine form of Mister or Master. At the time, “mistress” didn’t popularly have the negative connotation it often does today, namely referring to a woman other than a man’s wife with who he has an affair.
Today the only accepted full form of Mrs. is “missus”, one’s wife.
