Chapter 138: About Mom
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Old Master Yun had just drank some wine and was now swaying around in the car. He immediately felt a little nauseous. He closed his eyes and took a moment to compose himself before saying, “Old Tang is the only one who can be trusted.”
Su Yan was still waiting for Old Master Yun to continue. Unexpectedly, Old Master Yun closed his eyes and fell asleep. After all, he was old. Although he was not drunk, his stamina was still weak.
Assistant Liu looked at Old Master Yun through the rearview mirror and saw him sleeping on his seat. After a while, he felt that he should give Su Yan a reminder. “Old Master Yun wasn’t like this when he was young. It’s just that he suffered at the hands of some so-called friends. After that, Old Master Yun became much more cautious.”
Assistant Liu’s words piqued Su Yan’s curiosity. However, Assistant Liu kept his mouth shut. No matter how Su Yan asked, he refused to say a word.
Su Yan, whose curiosity was piqued, touched the back of her molars. “So, Assistant Liu, you did it on purpose, right? You said it on purpose to make me curious, yet you didn’t tell me everything.”
Assistant Liu, who was driving steadily, slowly curved his lips. He actually did not feel that he had done anything wrong.
Before the sky turned dark, the car finally entered the Yun family’s old residence. Because Su Yan had gone to university and didn’t usually come back, Yun Tian thought about it and packed her things to move to the school. At that moment, there was only a butler and some nannies in the Yun family’s old residence.
Hearing the sound of a car coming back, Uncle Wu straightened his clothes and ran out. When he saw that it was Assistant Liu who was driving, Uncle Wu was shocked. When he saw that it was Su Yan who helped Old Master Yun out of the car, he was shocked again.
After staying in a daze for a while, Uncle Wu finally came back to his senses and asked with a hint of flattery, “Why did Miss come back today?”
“Grandpa misses me, so I came back to take a look. He’s an old man after all.”
Naturally, Su Yan noticed that something was wrong with Uncle Wu. However, when she thought of Old Master Yun and Yun Chang, she felt that keeping a nail like Uncle Wu in the Yun family that everyone knew was better than having someone secretly plant someone in the Yun family.
It would be fine as long as they paid more attention.
As she and Uncle Wu worked hard to help Old Master Yun to the bedroom, Su Yan thought about it slowly. Uncle Wu’s guilty conscience was too obvious. She did not know what Uncle Wu was up to behind their backs. The fawning look on Uncle Wu’s face earlier was more like an attempt to hide his guilty conscience.
What was Uncle Wu doing behind their backs?
After putting Old Master Yun on the bed, Uncle Wu asked Su Yan softly, “Miss, it’s time to eat now. Do you need me to prepare food for you?”
After Su Yan nodded in agreement, she asked gently, “Uncle Wu, how many years have you been working for the Yun family?”
Uncle Wu’s heart skipped a beat. He could not help but wonder if Su Yan had discovered what he had done. However, Uncle Wu was experienced and did not show it on his face. “It’s been almost forty years. What happened, Miss?”
Although Uncle Wu did not reveal anything on the surface, Uncle Wu’s small eyes revealed the panic in his heart almost immediately.
Su Yan shook her head and smiled. “I just want to know some things about my father. You know, when I was taken away by the Su family, I wasn’t very old. My memories of my father are almost gone. I only remember that my father seemed to be a refined, handsome man. He was very tall and loved to smile.”
These words were said sincerely by Su Yan. She really did not have many memories of Yun Yi. Yun Yi had left too early.
Seeing that it wasn’t something related to him, the housekeeper let out a light sigh of relief. He returned to his original obedient and amiable butler Wu, slowly recounting the time he spent with Yun Yi. However, when he mentioned Yun Yi’s death, Butler Wu couldn’t help but sigh.
“So I still don’t know. What about my mom?”
From everyone’s introduction, Su Yan suddenly realized that something was not right. Everyone only said how good her father was to her. In her dream, Su Yan had indeed seen how Yun Yi treated her, to the point of holding her in his hands, afraid that she would fall. However, Su Yan did not understand why no one mentioned her mother to her.
Hearing Su Yan’s words, Uncle Wu actually fell silent. After a long while, he seemed to have weighed his options and said in a low voice, “Miss’s mother is a kind person. Miss shouldn’t ask too many questions, especially not in front of the Old Master.”
Why?
Without waiting for Su Yan’s question, Uncle Wu continued, “Old Master is very good to Madam. When Madam and the Second Young Master were quarreling, the Old Master was always on Madam’s side. However, something happened later that was hard to explain.”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows.?It was hard to explain? What kind of adjective was that?
Looking at Su Yan’s expression, Uncle Wu paused for a moment and coughed lightly. “The whole matter is quite difficult to explain in a few words.. From the beginning to the end.”
