When Mrs. He came in, He Xue had already sat up.

Mother Ji was serving her at the side, her eyebrows lowered and she looked like a loyal old servant.

Mrs. He stared at her, an unknown meaning flashed in her eyes, and then turned to look at He Xue.

He Xue forced out a smile: "Mom, why are you back?"

She didn't know that when He Xinning wrote the letter, she just thought that Mrs. He had other times to return home early.

Mrs. He did not answer the words, but said: "Xue'er, how are you feeling now? You have always been in good health. How come you are so good and you suddenly become ill?"

From childhood to adulthood, He Xue was raised carefully at home, and everything he ate and used was the best.

Over the years, He Xue's body has always been in good health. Even after giving birth to He Xinning, there was no problem at all.

Mrs. He really couldn't figure out what other things besides Shen Jianbai's incident could make He Xue become like this.

He Xue's face froze, and she felt a little lucky in her heart, thinking that her mother didn't know about that matter yet.

She looked aggrieved and said, "Mom, I don't know what to do. My chest is blocked and I feel uncomfortable."

"Mom, you don't have to worry about me. Maybe I'll think about it in two days and it'll be fine."

He Xue tried to lead the reason to Shen Jianbai's incident, but she had a clear idea of ​​who Mrs. He was, and she could see all the subtle changes in He Xue's face.

Mrs. He said: "Well, that's good."

Then, he comforted He Xue a few words, and then carefully told Mother Ji to take good care of He Xue.

Seeing that He Xue's face was not very good, she asked her to lie down and rest more, and then left with Mama Wang.

After returning to her own courtyard, Mrs. He's face suddenly darkened, and she lost all the kindness she showed in front of He Xue.

She ordered: "Mother Wang, go out and find someone to investigate now and see what Xueer is hiding?"

According to her many years of experience in running a house, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong between Ji's mother and He Xue.

She didn't allow that there were things in the house that were beyond her control, especially He Xue's.

Mother Wang quickly agreed and went out to do errands.

Mrs. He was leaning on the soft couch, her eyes closed, her mind racing rapidly.

Two hours later, Mrs. Wang walked in with a panic look on her face and took away all the maids serving in the house.

Mrs. He was leaning on the couch with her eyes closed tightly. When she heard the movement, she opened her eyes and asked, "How is it? Did you find out?"

Mother Wang looked gloomy, leaned over to Mrs. He, and whispered a few words.

The more Mrs. He listened, the uglier her face became. This matter was really beyond her expectation.

She never thought that this was what He Xue was checking!

"Is this serious?"

Mrs. Wang nodded sharply, and Mrs. He stopped talking.

Mother Wang, on the other hand, was already in a state of turmoil. She had no idea that what the eldest lady was looking for was the nanny who had been serving the second lady back then.

That nanny had disappeared as early as when the second young lady disappeared.

At this time, it is said that the master is investigating the disappearance of the second young lady. The master and his wife want to know the truth. This makes sense, but the eldest lady...

The eldest lady gave the impression that she was not close to the second lady. In fact, the eldest lady was vaguely hostile to the second lady.

However, Mother Wang did not dare to say this in front of Mrs. He.

Mrs. He opened her eyes, wondering what she was thinking, and Mrs. Wang didn't say a word. Just like that, the room was quiet.

After a while, Mrs. He finally said: "Mother Wang, tell the truth, what do you think of the relationship between the two sisters Xue'er and Feng'er?"

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and said she didn't dare.

Mrs. He's face became even uglier. She sighed and helped Mrs. Wang up.

"Get up, Mother Wang, you have been by my side for decades. I want to hear the truth."

Mother Wang was crying in her heart, stumbling and stumbling to express her true thoughts.

"Husband, madam, this is how I feel. The eldest lady has been treating the second lady like this since she was a child."

Mrs. He said "hmm". For so many years, she had never noticed that Xue'er had such hostility towards Feng'er.

Obviously, Xue'er and Feng'er are twins, and they should be close sisters. Why would Xue'er have such thoughts and be hostile to Feng'er?

Mrs. He really couldn't understand: "Mother Wang, who did you ask to investigate this matter?"

Mother Wang lowered her eyes and said, "Madam, this is Xu Er."

When the wife married the master, she brought two families from the capital to have children, Xu Yi and Xu Er. They are brothers. Xu Yi is the elder brother and is good at doing business and dealing with people.

Xu Er is the younger brother. He is silent and rarely talks, but he has a lot of skills. When Mrs. He goes out, he will secretly follow her to protect her.

Except for Mr. He and Mrs. He's mother Wang, everyone in the He Mansion only knew Xu Yi but not Xu Er.

Therefore, Mother Wang realized that this matter was not trivial, so she went directly to Xu Er and asked him to investigate in secret.

Hearing this, Mrs. He also nodded. It would be difficult for others to handle this matter, but Xu Er was the most suitable candidate.

She thought about it again and felt that she still had to discuss this matter with Mr. He.

At night, when the couple were in the house and the servants had retreated, Mrs. He started talking about it.

"Master, I came back this time. Firstly, I wanted to take Feng'er back for a visit and meet the clan members. Secondly, Xinning wrote to tell me that something happened over Xue'er."

Hearing this, Mr. He also said, "Well, I know Xue'er's side. Not long after you went to Feng'er's side, she said she felt unwell."

After saying that, Mr. He looked at Mrs. He's serious expression, realized something was wrong, and asked, "What, is there something fishy about Xue'er's illness?"

Mrs. He shook her head, sighed, and told Mr. He about Xu Er's investigation.

"Master, did you tell Xue'er about what happened during your investigation?"

Mr. He's heart skipped a beat. Looking at Mrs. He's serious look, he shook his head: "Only you and the people around me know about this matter. I didn't mention it to Xue'er."

This time, the couple looked at each other, both stunned.

Then why did Xue'er look for the nanny who served Feng'er back then?

Moreover, the master himself has been looking for it and can't find it. How can Xue'er find it?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Mrs. He suppressed a suspicion in her heart and discussed countermeasures with Mr. He.

Mrs. He: "Master, there is still no news from your side?"

Mr. He shook his head: "I don't know why, but as soon as our people found some clues, the clues were broken again."

It seemed as if someone was deliberately trying to stop them secretly.
