Chapter 281 - Abnormal An Ning
Chapter 281: Abnormal An Ning
“Stop!”
The voice behind them interrupted the two of them from entering. When they turned around, it was actually An Ning. Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she had seen through something?
It shouldn’t be, right? How could this ordinary chef’s face be so easily recognized? This An Ning was not a scanner.
“Did Second Grandpa ask you to deliver supper to Grandpa? Give it to me. I’ll send it in.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned? ‘Give it to you? Are you trying to make all my previous efforts go to waste?’
How could this be?
Shen Xiaoxiao shook her head and took a step back. She did not know if this action had angered An Ning, but her expression immediately changed. She looked at Shen Xiaoxiao seriously and said, “You kitchen girl, you must have grown bold. You actually dare not listen to me. If I ask you to give it to me, then give it to me.”
Shen Xiaoxiao put on a troubled look as she looked at An Ning. At this time, the Dark 1 in front turned around and gestured at An Ning. He probably meant that this was for the Old Master. According to the rules, if they did not hand it over to the housekeeper personally, it would be a violation of the rules. They would be punished. Please understand, Miss.
How could An Ning care about whether you were punished or not? She had just received news that her grandfather was going to meet a guest tonight. It was likely that Yan Kuan had already arrived. She had to find an opportunity to sneak in. If there were no guests here normally… Ouyang Tian would not say anything if she barged in.
However, if she barged in during a discussion for no reason, then she would be in big trouble. No matter how much Ouyang Tian doted on her, she would not be able to do it!
“We are already at the door. You have already completed the task. No one will criticize you. Now, give me the thing. You have already completed the task.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was naturally unwilling. Dark 1 was also unwilling. The three of them were in a stalemate for a moment. Shen Xiaoxiao’s position and An Ning were facing away from each other. She could see the situation in the inner courtyard at a glance.
The three of them had long drawn the butler’s attention, but the butler had no intention of coming forward to resolve it. Shen Xiaoxiao and Dark 1 knew very well that he wanted to see if they, the cook and the servant, were qualified or not. If they complied with the Ouyang family’s rules, then they could continue to serve in the Ouyang family. If they broke the rules tonight, then go ahead. Of course, they had to leave their hands behind before they could get out of the Ouyang family.
This was the rule, the Ouyang family’s rule for all servants.
“Fourth Miss, you’re here! The Master is discussing something. It’s probably not convenient for him to see the Miss.”
After pulling for a while, the housekeeper saw that the cook and the kitchen girl did not let go of Ouyang Ning’s grip on them. He had an idea in his mind, so he spoke out to interrupt the three people.
Shen Xiaoxiao secretly heaved a sigh of relief. As long as An Ning did not cause trouble here, she would be fine. She could not afford to offend them, but she could hide from them.
“You two go in.”
She did not know who the housekeeper was, and she did not need to know because this matter had nothing to do with her. She did not need to look for the housekeeper.
An Ning was very well-behaved in front of the housekeeper. He said that it was not convenient to go in, so she stood in the courtyard obediently and said, “Then I’ll wait here. I got an excellent ring yesterday to give to Grandfather. Sixth Butler, when Grandfather is done with work, please help me inform him!”
“This, then Fourth Miss, go wait in the room. After all, it’s more revealing.”
Sixth Butler understood that this An Ning was the youngest generation that the old man doted on the most. She was also one of the few juniors that had been treated with sincerity, so he naturally knew how to treat her.
Shen Xiaoxiao knew that the Sixth Butler was responsible for Ouyang Tian’s food, clothing, and transportation. Under Dark 1’s instructions, she personally handed it over to the Sixth Butler. Then, she obediently stood at the cloister and bowed her head respectfully, not saying a word.
The Sixth Butler glanced at Shen Xiaoxiao and nodded to Dark 1. He meant that the two of them should wait. After Ouyang Tian finished the food, the two of them could leave.
When the Sixth Butler entered the house, An Ning stood obediently in the courtyard and watched the Sixth Butler enter the house. Then, she took a step forward and prepared to enter Ouyang Tian’s bedroom.
You didn’t see wrongly. It was indeed the bedroom. Even though Ouyang Tian’s bedroom was extremely large and had a few rooms inside and outside, letting his granddaughter into the bedroom was still a little too far-fetched. The Ouyang family, which valued rules so much, was actually so relaxed in this aspect. This made Shen Xiaoxiao a little puzzled.
Was this Ouyang Tian spoiling An Ning too much? It really made people feel strange.
However, no one knew what An Ning was thinking. Halfway through, she actually walked towards Shen Xiaoxiao.
It seemed that no matter whether Shen Xiaoxiao wore a mask or not, she and An Ning were not compatible.
“Hey, you, come in with me!”
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned. Go in? Go in where? Ouyang Tian’s bedroom? Could it be that she was dozing off and met a pillow?
“Alright, stop waving your hands. If I tell you to go in, then go in. What are you dancing for?”
What do you mean you can’t go in? What do you mean you can’t refuse? What a joke. If she didn’t go in, how could she teach this disobedient servant a lesson?
Did she really think that An Ning’s reputation was not as good as before because she had been shelved by the outside company? Hmph, don’t even think about it!
Shen Xiaoxiao discreetly sent a secret signal to Dark 1. Shen Xiaoxiao pretended to be extremely unwilling and pitiful. Step by step, she entered Ouyang Tian’s room with An Ning.
This room was extremely large. As the Master of the house, the furnishings in the room were not only antique, but all of the white items were from the Ming Dynasty. Shen Xiaoxiao had only seen many things on television.
Outsiders were absolutely not allowed to enter Ouyang Tian’s courtyard. Even ordinary servants were not allowed to enter at will. Of course, the butler was the only exception, as well as An Ning.
The moment Shen Xiaoxiao entered the room, she heard An Ning say: “Shut the door.”
Shut the door?
Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned. She was secretly happy. Shut the door. It was good to shut the door. Once the door was closed, she would be able to quickly check and see where this so-called situation was?
Dark 1 said that it was behind the bookcase. To open the bookcase, one had to approach the bedroom, because one had to twist the vase on the bedside table.
This mechanism looked extremely ordinary, but this seemingly ordinary thing, Dark 1 said that this vase had to be opened with gloves. Otherwise, once the lights were turned off, the fluorescent fingerprints on the vase would be visible at night.
Shen Xiaoxiao closed the door and slowly turned around. Then, she took the opportunity to carefully examine everything in the room.
“Take off your clothes!”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s sizing eyes paused. What? What did she mean? Take off her clothes?
Was she sick?
Was An Ning crazy?
“I asked you to take off your clothes? Why? Are you not only mute, but also deaf?”
“Why?”
With a sign, An Ning looked at her with disdain and said mockingly, “I like to see you running around the courtyard without clothes on. Can’t I? If I want you to take off, then so be it. Otherwise, I’ll make you get out of the Ouyang family with your arms and legs broken!”
An Ning’s threat was particularly angry in Shen Xiaoxiao’s eyes. After staying in the Ouyang family for so long, could it be that An Ning had become so abnormal?
