[Grammar] `d have to / should have to

[lille82]

The test book says only the first sentence is correct. Could anybody please explain why?

1. She said we`d have to follow her instructions.
2. She said we should have to follow her instructions.

Well, I don't know how your test book presented the statements or question about the statements. But the contraction in #1, "we'd" is not for "we should", rather it represents "we would". There is no valid contraction for "we should".

Thank you.

The second is possible for those speakers of BrE who observe the shall/will difference. It's a reporting of the words, "You will have to follow my instructions".
