Chapter 162 Nanny Cuihua

When the Shangguan siblings heard Lao Ding's doubts, they also came forward to observe Mei Ling'er's appearance.

After reading it, they shook their heads. Neither of them knew this young woman who appeared out of nowhere.

"Hehe!" Mei Ling'er pulled the mask on her face embarrassedly.

Suddenly, she saw the cloth bag on her right and quickly raised it:

"My grandparents were good friends with the Shangguan grandparents when they were young. They are old now and have difficulty walking, so they asked me to come and pay my respects on their behalf."

"This is the cloth bag you left behind in the hotel lobby, Grandpa Ding. I brought it to you."

Old Ding took the cloth bag from Mei Ling'er, and most of his doubts disappeared.

At this time, the old woman beside him smiled and said:

"Thank you, little girl."

"Old Ding is just like that. He gets angry quickly and hastily. If you hadn't helped to stop him just now, Xiao Rui would have been beaten to a pulp by him..."

After the old woman finished speaking, she looked at Lao Ding deliberately.

Old Ding already felt that he was a bit impulsive, and being looked at by the old woman like that made him feel even more uncomfortable, but he was too embarrassed to show it on his face, so he immediately turned around and faced away from everyone.

Shangguan Rui saw that Old Ding had calmed down, and he felt a little grateful to Mei Ling'er, and he quickly greeted her:

"So she's the granddaughter of my parents' good friend. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you just now. Uncle Ding was also angry. He's usually a very kind person."

"Besides, it's normal for him to feel bad after losing two close friends at the same time. But Uncle Ding..." Shangguan Rui changed the subject, "I really don't know what you meant by that in the Great Hall."

"I know my parents' health condition because my wife accompanies them to their annual checkups, and I'm the one who gets the reports. They do have some minor ailments, but they're old, so it's normal for them to have some minor ailments and pains."

"But as I said in the Great Hall, they really haven't had any serious illnesses. If there were any serious illnesses, the nanny we found for them would tell us."

Lao Ding turned around and asked doubtfully:

"Babysitter? What babysitter?"

Shangguan Wen glanced at her brother and answered quickly, "It's Cuihua, the sister-in-law of my second aunt's eldest aunt's family, whom my brother and I found from our hometown. They all say Cuihua is very hardworking and seems honest. My brother and I were very satisfied when we met her. Since we are all relatives, we give her a sum of money every month so that she can cook for our parents and take care of their daily lives."

The old woman seemed to have heard a huge joke. Her mouth opened wide, she took a few steps back, and sat on a chair on the side of the mourning hall.

Seeing that she looked unwell, Lao Ding quickly walked over to her, squatted down, and asked her if she was feeling unwell.

The old woman patted the back of Lao Ding's hand and smiled gently:

"Old Ding, I'm fine. I just find it incredible. Do you think Cuihua is the Shangguan family's nanny?"

Old Ding shook his head and said sarcastically, "She's a nanny? She's just a scoundrel who does nothing but eat for free."

"What is going on?" Shangguan Wen asked.

The old woman took a few deep breaths, her breathing gradually calmed down, and she continued:

"During the time Cuihua was at your house, when Lao Ding and I visited your home, we never heard your parents say that she was the nanny you hired for them."

"When we went there, she was just lying on the sofa playing with her phone. She didn't even say hello when we came, and I never saw her do any housework or cook. The few times we went there, we always ate out. There was a time when Old Ding wouldn't let us come to your house, saying the kitchen roof was exposed and they had to wait for a repairman to come and fix it. We always gathered at my house or your Uncle Ding's house, or just found a place to sit outside and chat, play chess, or something like that."

"Speaking of Cuihua, I think I once saw her selling the cardboard your parents had worked so hard to collect. I wonder if she gave your parents the money. I even asked her about it, and she was really mad! She told me to stay out of her business!"

Shangguan Rui was completely confused and couldn't understand the current situation. Cuihua was clearly invited from their hometown to be a nanny for their parents, but from what Uncle Ding and the old lady said, it seemed like they had invited a relative.

No, he had to find out what was going on, so he picked up his phone and started calling his second aunt.

"Hey! Second aunt!"

"Xiao Rui? Why haven't you returned to the hotel yet? Your wife is almost overwhelmed, and all of us relatives are helping!"

"Second Aunt, could you please help keep an eye on the hotel? I called to ask about Cuihua."

"Cuihua? Cuihua has only been at your house for less than three months, and your parents didn't let her continue working there. Cuihua even had a huge fight with my aunt over it! I'm in a very difficult position."

Shangguan Rui's brows knitted together, his doubts growing heavier. He walked around the mourning hall with his phone in hand:

"I'm sorry, Second Aunt, I'm causing you trouble! Do you have Cuihua's contact information? If so, please send it to me. I want to apologize to Cuihua as well. I also have something I want to ask her."

"Okay, I'll send you a WeChat message, just wait..."

After Shangguan Rui hung up the phone, he opened the chat room with his second aunt on WeChat.

After waiting for less than a minute, my second aunt sent me Cuihua's contact information.

Without hesitation, he dialed the number immediately.

"Hello, I'm Shangguan Rui. Is this Ms. Cuihua? I have something to ask you about my parents. Is it convenient for you now?"

The person on the other end of the phone seemed a little impatient, and Shangguan Rui pleaded sincerely:

"I just have something I want to ask you about money. Once I've investigated it thoroughly, I'll give you nothing."

After Shangguan Rui finished speaking, he began to listen quietly to the voice on the other end of the phone.

Mei Ling'er and a group of people stood by, not daring to make a sound. The air was filled with the rustling sound of fallen leaves in the wind outside the door.

After a long time, the person on the other end of the phone should have finished talking. Shangguan Rui put his other hand on his forehead and sighed heavily:

"Okay, I've taken note of what you said. I'll contact you if I have any questions. I'm hanging up now."

When Shangguan Wen saw Shangguan Rui hang up the phone, she immediately went over to him.

"Brother, what did Cuihua say? Why do you look so unhappy?"

Shangguan Rui did not answer Shangguan Wen's question, but went straight to the bedroom on the first floor. Everyone followed him silently, wanting to see what he was going to do.

After arriving at the bedroom, Shangguan Rui began to rummage through the drawers, as if he was looking for something.

At this time, Lao Ding finally couldn't help it:

"What are you looking for? Tell us and we can help you find it!"
