Chapter 184 Covering Mouth
After Old Madam Shen arrived at the room upstairs, she just lay down on the chaise longue, and the next second, she said to the young lady who came to her side: "Go find a servant."
Xijie didn't quite understand: "Servant?"
"Ask about the situation here."
When Xijie heard this, she understood what it meant.
She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go find it right away."
After Xijie finished speaking, she left the room, and Old Madam Shen leaned on the couch, naturally with her eyes closed to rest.
After a while, Xijie called a servant from the villa over, and Old Madam Shen asked, "Has anything happened here recently?"
There was no need to explain what Madam Shen was asking.
After hearing this, the servant trembled and did not answer.
Madam Shen's gaze fell on the servant: "Why? Is this question difficult to answer?"
When the servant heard this, he dared not raise his head to speak.
Madam Shen frowned and said coldly, "I asked you to speak."
Seeing the old lady getting angry, the servant quickly lowered her voice and said, "Nothing happened. The mistress stayed in the room all day to recuperate, and Mr. Shen also had things to do every day. Everything is fine."
Obviously, this was not what Madam Shen wanted to hear. She frowned and looked at the servant's face for a long while. Then she asked, "Are you sure?"
The servant quickly replied, "I'm sure, old lady."
Old Madam Shen stared at the servant in front of her for a long time.
She originally wanted to ask something, but now she saw that the servants here seemed to have been silenced, so it would be difficult for her to get anything out of them.
She had a cold face and didn't say anything else.
The servant's expression was obviously becoming more and more nervous.
She looked at him for a long time, then said to the servant, "You can leave now."
When the servant heard her order, she was barely able to suppress her nervousness. She didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear that the person opposite would ask more questions. Soon, she retreated from the room.
Xijie watched the servant leave, then looked at the person on the couch: "Why don't you ask in detail?"
"It's obvious that her mouth is covered. What else is there to ask?"
Mrs. Shen said this, thought for a moment, and then said, "It seems that something really happened during this period of time. Otherwise, how could the servant be so scared?"
Xijie didn't expect this to happen. She looked at the face of the person on the couch for a long time.
"What do you think happened?"
Madam Shen's face darkened. She took a deep breath and then sighed, "I don't know why, but I always feel that it's not so good for her to stay with Yue Huai. I always feel uneasy."
"We've watched this person grow up, so we know her quite well."
Madam Shen said, "It's because I understand him that I'm worried. He has changed so much now, so much that I'm starting to feel doubtful."
Xijie comforted her: "Don't worry too much, there will be no problem."
Madam Shen added, "Go and find out what happened during this period. I'm very worried about her now and I have to keep an eye on her all the time."
Xijie nodded and said, "Okay, I'll find a chance to check and ask in the next few days."
"Yeah." Old Madam Shen closed her eyes, placed her hands on her brows, and rubbed the wrinkles on her brows with her fingertips.
…
The next morning, Su Nanxue came to the villa early.
Naturally, we are also preparing things for the trip at the villa.
As soon as Su Nanxue appeared in the hall, Mrs. Shen, who was sitting on the sofa, smiled and said, "Nanxue, it's been a long time since I last saw you."
When Su Nanxue saw Old Madam Shen, she immediately walked over quickly and reached out to hug Old Madam Shen on the sofa: "It's really been a long time since I saw you. I didn't expect you to be here."
Su Nanxue was very close to Old Madam Shen, and Old Madam Shen was even more affectionate. When she saw Su Nanxue, her eyes were full of smiles.
After about a minute, the two let go of each other, but Mrs. Shen still held Su Nanxue's hand.
"Have you lost weight?"
Old Madam Shen looked at Su Nanxue with heartache.
When Su Nanxue heard what Su Nanxue said, her expression froze for a few seconds.
She obviously hadn't paid much attention to her weight during this period. Under the old lady's gaze, she thought for a few seconds and whispered, "It's very hot here, so maybe I need to lose some weight."
Old Madam Shen didn't notice the disappointment between Su Nanxue's brows. She just said happily, "I heard that Yue Huai recruited you to work here. He must have made you tired, so you accepted it."
Su Nanxue had a smile on her face, but the happiness in her eyes was somewhat tinged with loneliness. She said softly, "How could that be? I'm not particularly busy at work right now."
After she finished speaking, she shook the old lady's hand and said, "You, on the other hand, should take good care of yourself."
Just as the two were talking in the hall, Shen Yuehuai came down from upstairs.
When Su Nanxue heard footsteps, she turned around immediately. After seeing the person coming down, the smile on her face unconsciously faded.
Shen Yuehuai took the initiative to say hello: "I'm really sorry to bother you today. I asked you to take some time to accompany the old lady out."
His words sounded too polite and distant.
After hearing this, Old Lady Shen felt a little unhappy and said, "What is the relationship between Nanxue and our family? Why is there any need to be so polite? Saying thank you makes you seem polite."
Shen Yuehuai didn't say much about the old lady's words. She just looked at a servant busy beside her and asked, "Have you packed everything for the trip?"
Su Nanxue could naturally feel his alienation, so she didn't say anything.
When the servant heard the question, he stopped what he was doing and hurriedly replied, "It's all packed, sir."
Shen Yuehuai hummed.
…
Shen Sangsang was staying in the room upstairs when there was a knock on the door.
When Shen Sangsang heard the knock on the door, she subconsciously looked towards the door. Of course, she just looked and didn't say anything.
At this time, the servant's voice came from outside: "Madam, the master said you should go down."
Shen Sangsang didn't know why she was asked to go down. Weren't they going out for fun?
Shen Sangsang sat there motionless, and still did not answer the servant's words.
After a while, the servant said again: "The master said you should change into light and comfortable clothes and go downstairs."
What does this sentence mean?
Shen Sangsang looked towards the door, and at this moment, the servant just left from the door, and the sound of the servant's footsteps was heard outside the door.
Does this mean that you want her to go with you?
Shen Sangsang’s face turned pale when she thought of this.
After about ten minutes, she came down from the stairs.
