Chapter 338

338 Waiting for his return

Song ran held aunt Wu’s arm. you said that you often run into aunt Cao at the market, right? ”

yes, second Madam doesn’t live far from us. She lives in Shuangyu alley, so we often meet Nanny Cao.

Song ran touched her chin. I heard that aunt Cao is Shen mengfang’s distant relative. Is that true? ”

“Distant relatives, very distant relatives,” mother Wu replied.

then, is Qianqian Cao loyal to Shen mengfang? ”

Mother Wu smiled meaningfully. when I was living in the mansion, I’ve seen mother Cao give false prices twice. What do you think? ”

Song ran’s lips curled into a smile. She loved people who had weaknesses.

Greedy for money? Then he would have to find the right solution.

The two of them went to the market together. Aunt Wu’s eyes were glued to the various stalls. She haggled, checked if the vegetables were fresh, and chatted with the familiar stall owners. She was completely at home.

Song ran was looking for nanny Cao in the crowd.

Suddenly, she saw aunt Cao haggling in front of a poultry stall and quickly said to aunt Wu, ” “I’ll go over and say a few words to her.”

Mother Wu waved her hand. go on, go on. We’ll meet at the entrance of the market later.

Mother Wu had always been clear-headed.

Song ran walked through the crowd and stood behind aunt Cao. She patted her on the shoulder. When aunt Cao turned around and saw her, she immediately greeted her warmly, ” ran, I haven’t seen you in a while. Happy Spring Festival.

Song ran exchanged some pleasantries and asked,”how has mother Cao been?” You didn’t go home for the new year?”

Mother Cao lived in the countryside of Haicheng. It was only the fifth day of the new year, so she probably didn’t go home for the new year.

At the mention of this, mother Cao seemed to have an inexplicable grievance and nagged, “That’s because mengfang’s health isn’t too good and she can’t leave her. Then, how can I not stay to take care of her?”

Song ran gave a perfunctory smile. so, is it my dad or Shen mengfang who’s paying your salary now? ”

Mother Cao sighed. after that incident, your father has stopped caring about her. She doesn’t have much money on hand, but I’m her relative. If I don’t care about her now, people will gossip about me.

Mother Cao had long been unable to hold back the urge to leave. Shen mengfang was giving her very little money now, and she could not earn much from buying groceries and household expenses. She also had children to take care of. She could not go on like this.

Song ran naturally saw through the thoughts in Iwai’s heart. She went straight to the point and said, ” mother Cao, you should know that Shen mengfang tried to frame me for her miscarriage. She and I have already fallen out on the surface. I really don’t like being her stepmother.

“She really shouldn’t have done that,” mother Cao smiled apologetically.

Song ran continued. I suspect that she is having an affair behind my dad’s back. Did you notice anything unusual? ”

“I really don’t know,” mother Cao did not dare to speak blindly.

Song ran nodded. how about this? I’ll ask you to help me keep an eye on Shen mengfang. I’ll pay you 50 yuan every month. Are you willing to do it? ”

At the mention of 50 yuan, aunt Cao’s eyes lit up. Shen mengfang only gave her 30 yuan a month, which was not enough. With song ran’s 50 yuan, she would be more well-off.

Mother Cao hesitated. ran, I don’t know what you want me to do. What if mengfang finds out? ”

Song ran raised her eyebrows and asked,’aunt Cao, are you not willing? Then forget it. ”
