Nanncy Sun added with a smile, “That’s right. Miss, feel free to tell us anything. We are at your service as always.”

Su Qiong looked at the two of them and the smile on her face disappeared. “Do you still remember the day I gave birth to Ranran?”

Su Qiong stared at the two old nannies. As expected, she saw a look of shock flashing across their faces. Her heart skipped a beat and she looked away. After a moment, she took a deep breath and tried not to make her voice tremble. “You have worked for my family for more than fifty years, right?”

Nanny Sun and Nanny Xiao looked at each other, their hands sweating as they gripped their walking sticks. They paused for a moment before answering. “Yes, more than fifty years.”

When they were in their teens, they were bought and brought to the Su family as maidservants and became head maidservants step by step. When Su Qiong was born, they were entrusted to take care of her.

They indeed had always been loyal, except for one thing.

The two of them panicked. They knew what would happen if the matter was exposed, so no matter how flustered they were, they suppressed it.

They lowered their heads to conceal their emotions while stealing glances at Su Qiong from the corner of their eyes, trying to figure out what was going on from her expression.

Su Qiong stared at the two nannies coldly. When she saw them secretly peeping at her, she said coldly, “Now, speak honestly. Tell me where my son is!”

Su Qiong gritted her teeth and asked without any warning.

Nanny Sun and Nanny Xiao panicked. If Su Qiong beat about the bush a little, they might not have freaked out. However, Su Qiong went straight to the point, which caught Nanny Xiao and Nanny Sun off guard.

When Su Qiong saw this, she understood it without needing an answer. Her eyes turned red and she gritted her teeth. “Great, great. What amazing servants I have!”

The old nannies she trusted the most had betrayed her and how!

In the face of the truth, she almost died from a heart-wrenching pain.

Nanny Sun and Nanny Xiao came back to their senses and immediately knelt down. “Madam, we didn’t betray you. You gave birth to a daughter back then, not a son.”

How could they admit it? Admitting it would surely get them executed.

Su Qiong did not expect the two nannies to refuse to admit it. She was extremely disappointed. “Nannies, how long do you want to lie to me for?”

Nanny Sun kowtowed. “My lady, how would I dare to lie to you? This is pure slander. Get the accuser to come and confront us. We are old and will go to see your parents soon. Before we die, we must clear our names.”

Nanny Xiao added. “That’s right. We could never betray you. Miss, please don’t be deceived by others.”

Su Qiong closed her eyes. She felt like her mind was about to explode. She did not dare to open her eyes, afraid that she would not be able to resist the urge to skin the two nannies alive.

Nanny Sun and Nanny Xiao cried with tears streaming down their faces. “Madam, we’re willing to die to prove our innocence.”

Su Qiong shouted. “Enough. If you don’t want to tell me, someone else will.”

Nanny Sun and Nanny Xiao both shut their mouths. Although they refused to admit it, they could not help but tremble.

Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan soon arrived. When the nannies heard footsteps, they couldn’t help but look up.

They exchanged a look and understood what each other meant.

No matter what, they would refuse to admit it even if a knife was put at their throats.

Su Qiong felt weak all over her body. She looked at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, please.”

Liu Sanniang nodded. She looked at the two old nannies. Before she could speak, Nanny Xiao spoke first. “Madam, I don’t know this girl at all. She must be deliberately slandering me.”

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “I haven’t said anything yet. How do you know it’s slander?”

Nanny Sun’s eyes darkened. “Young girl, you spout nonsense or you will be punished by heaven.”

Liu Sanniang’s expression was calm. She looked at the two old women and smiled. “Let me introduce myself. My name is Sanniang. I’m a psychic.”

Nanny Xiao interrupted Liu Sanniang and sneered. “How funny. How can a little girl like you be a psychic? God is watching everything. How dare you lie?”

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “God is indeed watching. Aren’t you afraid?”

Nanny Sun gritted her teeth. “Young girl, you are so sharp-tongued.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “You flatter me.”

Nanny Sun and Nanny Xiao were furious. They ignored Liu Sanniang and crawled to Su Qiong’s feet on their knees. “Madam, we both don’t have long to live. Our loyalty to you has stood the test of time and will continue to be so. We won’t betray you.”

When Su Qiong heard this, she felt like a knife was stabbing her heart. She looked at Liu Sanniang for help. “Miss Liu, what do you want me to do?”

Liu Sanniang said, “Madam, please prepare a table and two stools.”

Su Qiong instructed. “Follow Miss Liu’s instructions and close the courtyard door. No one is allowed to enter.”

The servants went out and soon came back with a table and two stools.

Liu Sanniang walked over and sat down. “Who wants to go first?”

Nanny Sun and Nanny Xiao looked at each other. They obviously did not take Liu Sanniang’s words seriously. Over the course of their entire life, they had never seen a psychic so young. What could a young girl like her do?

If they wanted Su Qiong to stop suspecting them, they had to bite the bullet and do it.

Nanny Sun stood up with her walking stick. “I’ll go first.”

She went over and sat down. She glared at Liu Sanniang with her turbid eyes, wanting to intimidate her. However, Liu Sanniang remained perfectly composed as she said, “Put out your hand.”

Nanny Sun reached out and Liu Sanniang grabbed her wrist. She then closed her eyes as if she was trying to sense something.

Nanny Sun, who was originally nervous, heaved a sigh of relief. She thought that Liu Sanniang might really be capable, but she didn’t feel anything at all. Clearly, this little girl was just a swindler.

Not only was she no longer nervous, but she even felt quite cozy. After a while, Nanny Sun looked at Liu Sanniang, whose eyes were still closed, and said coldly, “Miss, say something. Let me see what kind of a funny story you can come up with.”
