92 Pa Pa, I Need You to Help Me Do Something
It was not until the evening that Shen Yaowei returned to the small courtyard.
As soon as she got out of the carriage, Nuan Ying, who was guarding the courtyard, welcomed her. “Miss, Third Young Master Shen is here. He’s been waiting for you in the front hall for a long time.”
Hearing this, Shen Yaowei’s eyes lit up, and she quickly ran towards the courtyard.
In the front hall.
!!
Shen Yuyan sat at the tea table, sipping tea. Beside him was an old woman with gray sideburns.
The moment Shen Yaowei stepped into the front hall and saw the old woman, she shouted excitedly, “Granny Yuan!”
Hearing the girl’s anxious voice, Granny Yuan looked up at Shen Yaowei anxiously. “Miss…”
Shen Yaowei saw Granny Yuan stand up to kneel and bow to her. She rushed to Granny Yuan in three steps and supported her.
“Granny Yuan, Yaoyao missed you so much!” Shen Yaowei hugged Granny Yuan.
With this hug, she realized that Granny Yuan had really lost a lot of weight. Her body was not as straight as before and was a little hunched.
“I miss you too,” Granny Yuan said with a trembling voice. She had never thought that she would be able to return to the capital one day to see the Eldest Lady she doted the most.
“Granny, Yaoyao was wrong. I shouldn’t have chased you out. Can you forgive Yaoyao?” Shen Yaoyao let go of Granny Yuan slightly and said in a very serious tone.
Granny Yuan almost cried and hurriedly said, “Miss, you’ve really misunderstood me. I’ve never blamed you.”
She knew very well that her lady was as innocent as a child and was just deceived by an evil person.
“Granny, have you not returned to the Shen residence to take a look?” Shen Yaowei asked with a smile.
Granny Yuan nodded.
“Then I’ll bring Granny back to take a look. My father will definitely be very happy to see you.”
“Yaoyao,” Shen Yuyan suddenly said, “Granny hasn’t been in good health for the past few years. She rushed here all night yesterday, let her rest first.”
Shen Yaowei looked at Granny Yuan’s haggard expression and immediately said, with heartache, “Then Granny, rest here first. When you’re done resting, I’ll bring you back to the Shen residence.”
Seeing this, Nuan Ying, who was guarding not far away, wanted to remind Shen Yaowei that no one was allowed to stay in this courtyard without permission. However, when she thought of her master’s attitude towards Shen Yaowei, she chose to remain silent.
“Yaoyao, let Granny stay with you for the next few days,” Shen Yuyan said to Shen Yaowei. “In a few days, you can go home with Granny.”
Only then did Shen Yaowei feel that something was wrong. She turned to look at Shen Yuyan. “Third Brother, why can’t you go home these few days?”
Shen Yuyan had never been good at lying in front of Shen Yaowei. He pretended to be calm and picked up his teacup to take a sip. “Father hasn’t been in the residence for the past few days. Even if you go back, you won’t be able to see him.”
“I see.” Shen Yaowei nodded in realization.
Seeing that Shen Yaowei believed him, Shen Yuyan heaved a sigh of relief.
Next, Shen Yaowei pulled Granny Yuan and Shen Yuyan aside to chat for a while. It was not until the sky turned completely dark and Shen Yuyan bade farewell and left that she reluctantly let Nuan Ying bring Granny Yuan down to rest.
After returning to her room after dinner, Shen Yaowei sent Nuan Ying away and called her out.
“Pa Pa, I need you to help me do something,” Shen Yaowei said to her worriedly as she held Pa Pa in her palm.
