Chapter 40: Crying All Night

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Nanny Li was a little angry. If not for the fact that Liu Sanniang was not a servant, she would have slapped her.

With obvious displeasure, Nanny Li said, “Miss Liu, it’s our madam who wants to see her daughter. Please move aside.”

After a while, Li Yazhi came out with her servants to look for her daughter.

Li Yazhi smiled. “Miss Liu, I just want to hug my own child. Don’t be so nervous. Butler Zhou told me that this courtyard is tightly guarded. That criminal can’t even get in. Even if she does, she won’t be able to take my daughter away in front of everyone.”

Nanny Li pushed Liu Sanniang away and the servant immediately carried the child towards Li Yazhi.

Li Yazhi reached out to hug Zhou Yanshu with a gentle expression. “Oh my dear, I missed you so much.”

Li Yazhi lowered her head and kissed Zhou Yanshu with an extremely loving expression. Li Yazhi smiled and said, “Alright, alright. You guys can leave. It’s almost bedtime.”

As Li Yazhi spoke, she hugged Zhou Yanshu and kissed her face. Zhou Yanshu opened her mouth, pouted, and started crying.

Li Yazhi frowned. “Where’s the nanny? Is my daughter hungry?”

The nanny replied immediately. “Madam, I just fed her. Miss must be throwing a tantrum because she hasn’t seen you for a day.”

Hearing that, Li Yazhi smiled and the servant girl beside her added. “I think so. Miss must have missed Madam.”

Li Yazhi carried Zhou Yanshu back into the house.

Soon, Li Yazhi got the servants to prepare the food.

Liu Sanniang stopped a third-class servant and asked. “Does your madam carry her daughter often?”

With a nod, the third-class servant answered honestly. “Yes, our madam loves Miss a lot. Other than feeding and sleeping, she spends all her time with Miss. Miss also likes Madam to hug her. Today, Miss cried probably because she hasn’t seen her mother for a day.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “That makes sense. Children will always miss their mother.”

Liu Sanniang had never had any children of her own, but her two sisters-in-law did. She had seen her nephews and nieces grow up.

In her previous life, Liu Sanniang had even asked Madam Wei why children would stick to their mother more than their father.

Madam Wei told her that it was because the smell on the mother’s body could make the child feel at ease.

At dinner time, Liu Sanniang and the servants ate together.

The food was very good.

Every two hours, all the servants had to register their code word.

Many times, Liu Sanniang heard the child crying and the sound of the nanny coaxing the child.

When it was almost dawn and Liu Sanniang went out to register, she heard Zhou Yanshu’s heart-wrenching cries again. The servants were very anxious.

“Miss, what’s wrong? Why do you keep crying?”

“Where’s the nanny? Come and feed her!” Li Yazhi sounded like she was about to break down.

Nanny said in a low voice, “I just fed her…”

However, she had to obey Madam’s orders and feed Miss again.

Liu Sanniang went to register her code word.

Wei Shilai was looking at the registration book. Beside him was Constable Lin. Wei Shilai smiled at Liu Sanniang, and said, “Miss Liu, is there anything different in the courtyard?”

His men waited for the entire night, but there was nothing unusual. If the criminal really meant it, she must have already done something. But nothing happened so far.

Liu Sanniang shook her head. “Nothing unusual. I just have a suspicion, but I don’t know if I should tell you about it or not.”

Hearing that, Wei Shilai became excited. “Miss Liu, tell me. Tell us your suspicions.”

Liu Sanniang frowned and stood up to close the door.

Only Wei Shilai, Lin Zheng, and Liu Sanniang were left in the room.

Liu Sanniang said, “I suspect First Madam Zhou.”

Wei Shilai gasped. “Miss Liu, give me a second…”

Only Liu Sanniang would dare to voice her suspicions about First Madam Zhou being swapped. No one else would dare to say that.

Wei Shilai calmed down after a moment and asked. “Miss Liu, why do you think it’s First Madam Zhou?”

If it was really First Madam Zhou, it would be very easy for her to take the child away.

If it was in the past, Wei Shilai would definitely not believe it. However, Liu Sanniang had also said that the criminal could change her appearance at will, so it was not impossible for her to look like First Madam Zhou.

If that was the case, then where was the real First Madam Zhou now!

Wei Shilai felt a headache coming on.

Liu Sanniang added seriously. “Sir, I’m just speculating right now. First Madam Zhou brought her daughter to her room in the night. I’ve also asked the servant in the courtyard and was told that other than feeding and sleeping, First Madam Zhou spends all her time with her daughter. Her daughter is very close to her, but tonight, the child cried many times.”

Children didn’t know how to lie. If the smell on Li Yazhi’s body made her feel at ease, she probably wouldn’t cry so many times. Even if Li Yazhi rarely slept with her daughter, she shouldn’t react so strongly, crying all night.

Unless the smell on Li Yazhi’s body was not familiar to the child and made her feel unsafe. Children often communicated discomfort through crying.

Wei Shilai’s expression was a little solemn. He felt that the matter was very tricky. After a moment of silence, he said to Liu Sanniang truthfully, “Miss Liu, to be honest, I believe you, but Old Master Zhou won’t. If we insist, we might get kicked out by First Madam Zhou.”

If First Madam Zhou was the criminal, it would be a piece of cake for her to take the child away.

Liu Sanniang was also worried. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

After a while, Wei Shilai looked at Liu Sanniang and said in a low voice, “Miss Liu, you’re the only one who can help me now. Other than you, no one else can do it.”

Wei Shilai felt very helpless. He could find evidence and investigate the case, but there was not enough time now. Moreover, the criminal could change her appearance at will!

Liu Sanniang looked at Wei Shilai and said, “Sir, if you have any ideas, just tell me.”

Wei Shilai said, “Find a chance to read First Madam Zhou’s mind. We have to save the real First Madam Zhou as soon as possible.”

If the one in the mansion was fake, then the most urgent thing was to find the real one. As long as the real Madam Zhou was found, all the difficulties would be solved.
