Aunt Chen looked at Madam Lan innocently and shook her head: "Madam Lan, I didn't see it. I would check the pockets of each piece of clothing before washing it. If there were any tissues, I would take them out and throw them away. If there were any valuables, I would take them out and put them in the storage cabinet next to the washing machine."

Aunt Chen is in charge of doing the laundry.

Some clothes are made of silk and cannot be machine washed, so they have to be washed by hand.

Although Aunt Chen has only been here for a short time, she is diligent and efficient at work. The clothes she washes are clean and do not deform. Mrs. Lan is very satisfied with her.

When she heard that she didn't see what was in Mrs. Lan's pocket, Mrs. Lan believed her for the time being.

She asked again: "Who gave you this dress?"

Generally speaking, it was Lin's mother who helped her take out the clean clothes in the room and took them to the laundry room for Aunt Chen to wash, or she would give them to other people to take over.

However, today when Lin's mother took out the clothes, she happened to meet Li Yu. Li Yu was greedy and said he wanted to eat popcorn, so Lin's mother gave the clothes to someone else.

"It's Xiao Wang."

Mother Lin called Xiao Wang again. When she heard that something was missing from Mrs. Lan's pocket, she said she didn't know.

She said: "Mother Lin handed the clothes to me, and I gave them directly to Aunt Chen. As for what was in the pocket, I really don't know."

"Mrs. Lan, did you lose something valuable?"

Mrs. Lan didn't say anything, so Xiao Wang continued, "Mrs. Lan, I'm an old man here, and you know that I've always been diligent and serious, and I'm also honest.

I won't take your things.

There is one person who is more suspicious, and that is Aunt Chen.

She is new here, and her family is short of money, so it is normal for her to do such a thing."

Aunt Chen's eyes turned red with grievance. She said, "Xiao Wang, please don't spit blood at me. Although I am poor, I am also an ambitious person. I will not steal anything!"

She is not that stupid. If she steals something, she will not be able to work here anymore. She will get a little money but lose such a good job. It is not worth it!

Aunt Chen looked at Xiao Wang and said, "I know you. I heard that you introduced your relatives to work here before, but your relatives worked slowly and not well enough. Madam Lan was not satisfied, so she drove your relatives away and then found me.

You think I took away your relative's job and you are not happy with me. I know it in my heart, but I just don't say it out loud. "

I didn't expect that these two people who usually seem to be in harmony would have such little frictions.

But it's normal. There will be friction wherever there are people.

"Don't spit blood on me! I have never done these things to you. Madam Lan's things must be very valuable. It's normal for you to take them because your family is in financial difficulty."

The husband says he is right and the wife says she is right, as if no one is wrong.

Mrs. Lan frowned slightly and said, "You all have a point. Since the things are missing, let's call the police and let them find them."

When talking about calling the police, Xiao Wang immediately said, "Just call the police and let them arrest you!"

Aunt Chen also said angrily: "Call the police if you want. I'm not afraid."

She suddenly thought of something and looked sharply in the direction of Lin Ma.

If it wasn't the two of them who took the things in Mrs. Lan's pocket, could it be Mother Lin?

Mother Lin also felt Aunt Chen's gaze. Aunt Chen had only been here for a short time and she was not familiar with the family situation, so it was normal for her to be suspicious of Mother Lin.

But Lin's mother is the least likely.

Because in the eyes of Mrs. Lan and Shuxi, Mother Lin is not an outsider at all, she is a relative!

Mother Lin said: "Originally, I would check the pockets to see if there is anything wrong, but when I just took out the clothes today, Xiaoyu pestered me and asked me to make popcorn for her, so I didn't pay attention."

Shu Xi asked Mrs. Lan: "Grandma, is it something important?"

Mrs. Lan nodded and said, "Yes, these are the jade earrings your grandfather gave me. I really like them. I took them out of the jewelry box and wanted to wear them to see your grandfather tomorrow, but I couldn't find them today."

Suddenly, she felt the atmosphere around her became strange.

She looked at Shu Xi and the others in confusion: "What's the matter?"

Shu Xi said, "Grandma, have you been feeling unwell lately, or have you become forgetful?"

Mrs. Lan was stunned for a moment, and she suddenly became nervous.

She said, "What do you mean? I'm sick?"

Shu Xi said: "No, just a preliminary suspicion."

She paused, then continued, "Did you really forget that you put the emerald earrings on your ears?"

"Ah? Is there any?"

Mrs. Lan raised her hand to touch her ear and really touched the earring.

She was very surprised and quickly ran to the bathroom where there was a mirror.

When she saw herself in the mirror, she was stunned.

She actually has earrings in her ears!

How strange, she has no recollection of this incident at all!

She only remembered taking out the earrings and putting them in her pocket, but she had no recollection of how she put them on!

She was happy to see that the earring was not lost, but she was also a little flustered.

She had an uneasy feeling in her heart. Could it be that she was... suffering from Alzheimer's disease?

She had been in the bathroom for a long time and hadn't come out. Shu Xi came to the door worriedly and knocked on it: "Grandma, are you okay?"

Mrs. Lan suddenly came back to her senses and said, "I'm fine."

She washed her face and walked out pretending to be calm.

Shu Xi said: "Let's eat first."

"it is good."

During the meal, Mrs. Lan was a little careless. Shu Xi picked up some food for her, all of which were light dishes.

Ever since Mrs. Lan's health was healed by Shu Xi, she began to like eating fatty foods. Seeing that she liked them, Mother Lin spoiled her and secretly made them for her when Shu Xi was not around.

But she is old, and previous examinations found that her cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems are relatively thin and easily blocked. Once blocked, it can easily lead to high blood pressure and other problems.

This is also why Mrs. Lan often felt dizzy before.

Mrs. Lan saw the bland celery in the bowl and said unhappily, "I don't really like it. Can I not eat it?"

"Celery is healthy, so you can eat some at any time."

"OK then."

After dinner, Mrs. Lan looked at Shu Xi and asked cautiously, "Xi Xi, do I have Alzheimer's disease?"

Shu Xi patted Madam Lan's hand and said, "Let me help you take a look first."

Shu Xi was taking Mrs. Lan's pulse. Mrs. Lan didn't dare to breathe, for fear that if she was not careful and breathed loudly, it would affect Shu Xi's pulse diagnosis.

After a while, Shu Xi finally stopped.
