After dinner, Granny Ning and Ning Ruiyu had something to do at home, so they left. Si Zhanbei and Sheng Fenghua were left behind to chat with Elder Si.
As they talked, they talked about the Mei family, so they got up and went to the study, leaving Sheng Fenghua alone in the living room to read the newspaper.
Originally, Elder Si had asked Housekeeper Wang to show her around, but Sheng Fenghua had rejected him.
To be honest, although the Si Clan was huge, she did not have any good intentions. Therefore, she quietly sat in the living room and waited for Si Zhanbei to come down.
Housekeeper Wang saw that Sheng Fenghua would rather sit and read the newspaper than go out for a walk. His gaze was a little complicated. He was Old Master Si's confidant and the person who understood him the best.
He could tell that Old Master Si's attitude towards Sheng Fenghua had changed. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked the two of them to stay for dinner. Although he did not acknowledge Sheng Fenghua as his granddaughter-in-law, he had already tacitly acknowledged her in his heart.
Butler Wang couldn't accept this result.
He could not understand why the old man had changed his attitude in the blink of an eye.
Sheng Fenghua ignored Steward Wang's gaze. He was just a servant. So what if he was the Si family's housekeeper? It wasn't like she was begging him.
Sheng Fenghua's calmness and indifference made Housekeeper Wang even more upset. He thought to himself, 'If you are not a family, you will not enter the same door.' In the past, Si Zhanbei had treated him like this, and now, Sheng Fenghua was doing the same. It was no wonder that the two of them could become husband and wife.
Housekeeper Wang stood in the living room for a while. When he didn't see Sheng Fenghua trying to get close to him, he left with an unhappy look.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked into the courtyard, he saw Si Muyuan walking toward him. Si Muyuan was the best at pleasing Housekeeper Wang because she knew that if she wanted to leave a good impression in front of Elder Si, she had to ask Housekeeper Wang to put in a good word for her in front of Elder Si.
After all, he was the one who had accompanied Master the longest.
Seeing Housekeeper Wang, Si Muyuan put on a smile and went forward to greet him. However, before she could speak, she saw that Housekeeper Wang's complexion was not good. She could not help but ask with concern, "Housekeeper Wang, what's wrong? You don't look too good."
"Miss Mu Yuan, you're here." Steward Wang put away his expression and smiled faintly as he greeted Si Muyuan.
He knew Si Muyuan's character very well. He was definitely someone who wouldn't visit without a reason. She had obviously heard that Elder Si had asked Si Zhanbei and Sheng Fenghua to stay for a meal. She was probably here to find out more information.
Sure enough, Housekeeper Wang's guess was right. Si Muyuan looked into the room and vaguely saw Sheng Fenghua's figure. She pulled him to the side.
"Miss Mu Yuan, what's wrong?" Butler Wang pretended to be confused and asked.
"Let me ask you something!"
"What's the matter, Miss Mu Yuan? Please speak frankly."
"Let me ask you, did the old man really ask them to stay for dinner?"
Steward Wang thought to himself. Sure enough.
However, he didn't show it on his face at all. He smiled and said, "Miss Muyuan, are you talking about Eldest Young Master and Eldest Young Mistress?"
Unexpectedly, Si Muyuan's face darkened when she heard how Steward Wang addressed Sheng Fenghua. She spat and said, "What Young Mistress? She's just a village girl from the countryside. I don't know what Father was thinking to ask that village girl to stay for dinner. "
Hearing Si Muyuan's disdainful words about Sheng Fenghua, Steward Wang's eyes flickered, but he said, "Don't say that, Miss Mu Yuan. She's Young Master's wife, so she must be the Si family's Young Mistress."
