The Young Matriarch

Chapter 325: Chapter 325 Are You Pregnant?
 

Liu Man sat opposite, her face cold.

The Bai Family’s villa had an open kitchen, so they could see into it while sitting in the dining room.

Liu Man stared at the nanny, Auntie Chen, who was bustling about inside, with an unfriendly gaze.

Perhaps it was a woman’s intuition, but even without evidence, Liu Man always felt that something was not quite right between the nanny, Auntie Chen, and her husband, Bai Hongguang.

But Liu Man was not ready to make a scene just yet, especially since the college entrance examination was only two days away.

No matter what, she wanted to wait until her precious daughter had taken the exam, to avoid upsetting Yinyin’s mental state.

However, that didn’t matter, as she had just asked a servant—who she was on good terms with—to sneak up to the second floor hallway and other hidden areas to secretly install surveillance cameras while every master of the house was dining; in a few days, she would find out if there had been any mischief!

Liu Man’s tone was harsh, “Xiaomiao, hurry up, Yinyin is waiting for her chicken soup!”

Bai Hongguang defended from the side, “What’s the rush? You’re acting like it’s life or death.”

Liu Man looked suspicious, while Bai Chuwei sat on the side, resting her chin in her hand, watching the drama unfold.

Auntie Chen came over with a handkerchief holding a big soup bowl, placing it at the center of the glass dining table.

The black chicken had stewed until it was incredibly flavorful, and a layer of golden bubbles of oil were floating on the chicken soup, which was pleasing to the eye.

Bai Yinyin, unable to wait, picked up a soup spoon next to her and started stirring in the big soup bowl, instantly enhancing the aroma.

Delicious!

Truly delicious!

Auntie Chen had not yet had the chance to leave when the rich aroma of the chicken soup instantly filled her nostrils, causing her to uncontrollably prop herself up against the dining table and start retching, “Ugh—ugh—sorry, I didn’t mean to… ugh—”

Bai Chuwei curled the corners of her lips, her eyes filled with mirth.

It looked like the chicken soup wouldn’t be enjoyed tonight.

Bai Guofu’s brow furrowed slightly, but he asked with concern, “Xiaochen, have you not been feeling well recently?”

Bai Yinyin glanced at the chicken soup and then at Auntie Chen’s pale face. Suddenly, her mind went blank, almost at the same time as Bai Guofu, she exclaimed, “Are you pregnant?”

Bai Guofu was just about to say to remove this bowl of chicken soup and bring a new one when he was stunned by Bai Yinyin’s words.

Pregnant?

Liu Man felt something was off about that remark…

“Yinyin, what do you mean by that?!” Liu Man abruptly stood up, the chair scraping the floor with a harsh noise as she pushed it.

“Do you know something?”

The reaction from Bai Yinyin just now was unusual!

Everyone in the Bai Family knew that the nanny, Auntie Chen, was a widow, her husband had been dead for many years, and she spent her days working at the Bai family, even staying in the nanny’s room at night—where could she find the time to meet a man?

So… the normal reaction would be like that of Old Master Bai, expressing concern if Xiaomiao had been feeling unwell lately.

Who would blurt out asking if Auntie Chen was pregnant?

Liu Man wasn’t a clever person, but when it came to catching a mistress, she could turn into Sherlock Holmes.

Bai Chuwei watched them with interest, leisurely picking up her chopsticks to grab some of the clean dishes, eating them with relish.

The taste was quite good.

Bai Yinyin subconsciously looked over at Bai Hongguang; Liu Man sharply questioned from the side, “Bai Yinyin, why are you looking at your father when your mother is talking to you?”

Bai Yinyin’s voice trembled as she spoke, “I… I… I don’t know anything, I’ve lost my appetite…”

Bai Chuwei almost laughed out loud. Bai Yinyin, this little fool, looked so guilty she couldn’t even pretend properly; no wonder she was only fit to be a low-intelligence supporting character in the original story.

“I’m going back to my room to review.” Bai Yinyin quickly got up, ready to make a run for it.

She had barely taken a few steps when she collided into a servant coming down the stairs—the impact full and hard!
