Huaiyu was speechless.
The rain got heavier as bean-sized raindrops fell down, and the eaves of the house made a crackling sound. Ye Jin Su looked at the sky, then looked at Lady Xie and Ye Jin Ru who were in the rain. She then said to Xiao Hong, "Go and get someone to bring some umbrellas over."
Xiao Hong blinked its eyes and ran out like a wisp of smoke.
The gate to the courtyard had long since been closed, and the people here now were all the trusted aides of the various courtyards. Only the few high monks who had been invited into the inner room were left.
Ye Jinsu walked over and said, "It's late today. Please stay at the mansion for the time being."
Taking advantage of the servants' time to bring the servants away, Ye Jinsu methodically dealt with the chaos in the courtyard. After settling down the high monks, he sent a few more people away, leaving behind some of his trusted aides who were still calm.
The scene gradually regained its tranquility.
The Old Master said nothing, but his expression eased a lot.
After settling everything, Ye Jinsu rubbed her head as if she had a headache. At that moment, there was a clap of thunder in the sky and a bolt of lightning split open the sky. Ye Jinxiu was so shocked that she staggered and fell on the ground.
Fortunately, there was a little girl beside the old lady who helped Ye Jinsu up. Otherwise, looking at how weak Ye Jinsu was, he probably wouldn't even be able to stand up.
Ye Jinxiu tilted her head, clutching her chest and frowned, "Grandfather, I'm not completely recovered yet. I'm afraid I haven't done my best to treat you. I'm afraid I've missed out on this."
Her pair of beautiful eyes were filled with water as she leaned against the servant's shoulder, half covering her face with worry. The corners of her eyes flickered as if she was about to cry, causing anyone who looked at her to feel pity.
Ye Jinsu held her head and looked at the old lady, "Dare granddaughter. Please help granddaughter."
As she said that, she covered her chest and panted, looking extremely weak.
The old lady was slightly unhappy, but seeing how Ye Jinsu was acting, she could not say anything more. She chided him, "Since you're still sick, just stay in the yard and rest. You don't have to come here. If you're bad, you can see what you do."
She looked at the Old Master and said, "My granddaughter knows that she is very ill, but it is useless for Second Mother to say that this will be a major occasion. She must come."
With that, Ye Jinsu shook his head, "Grandfather, don't worry. There's nothing serious about your granddaughter's illness. The doctor said she's weak, so it'll be alright if you go back to recuperate."
The Old Master didn't have much of an expression on his face. He glanced at Ye Jinsu and said, "Since that's the case, let's do as you say."
The old lady was somewhat shocked. She turned her head to the Old Master in an attempt to find out his intentions. This did not resemble his usual style.
However, the Old Master didn't look at her, so the Old Granny could only give up. "Since that's the case, you can watch from the side and learn this control skill."
Just as they were talking, Little Red and a few others ran over with umbrellas in their hands. With a few oil-paper umbrellas propped up, Lady Xie was able to avoid being drenched to the ground and looking even more miserable. The old lady did not say anything and silently agreed with Ye Jinsu's actions. However, she still turned her head away, obviously still not liking the Xie family.
Ye Jinsu looked at the sky and heard several thunderclaps. The rain was not that heavy, and it would not be for long.
Thus, he didn't ask her to kneel on the balcony.
On the other hand, Little Red was holding an umbrella reluctantly behind Lady Xie's back.
Ye Jinsu looked at her with a probing look.
Xiao Hong only shook its head slightly.
Ye Jinsu's heart sank. It seemed like the situation wasn't so good.
Calling Xiao Hong to fetch the umbrella was just a pretense. The goal was to let Xiao Hong go out and take a look at the situation outside, as well as what was going on with Twilight Garden.
But now it seemed that there wasn't any good news.
Ye JinSu was a bit worried. She didn't even need to pretend. With the dim candle light showing off her pale face, she made people worry if she was going to fall down in the next moment.
The old lady's men moved quickly, bringing more than a dozen people with them. Ye Jinshu coughed lightly and turned to look at the old lady.
With the old lady here, she naturally had to let the old lady speak up and not take away the power of the old lady.
The old lady could tell at a glance that there were at least twenty servants serving in the large courtyard of the Xie Clan, and almost half of them had been brought here by now.
"Why are there only so many?" the old lady asked.
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, Huaiyu immediately knelt down, lifted her head, and was about to say something.
Ye JinSu glanced over and kicked Huaiyu at Xiao Hong's feet, which was holding up the umbrella behind them. The words were swallowed up.
"In reply to the old lady, does the Madam have any foresight? She has already brought people to our Twilight Garden a long time ago." Little Red spoke while holding up his umbrella.
Little Red was indeed worthy of being her follower for so many years. Little Red could even guess what she was thinking.
Pretending to be scared, Ye Jinsu covered her mouth, "Is that true?"
Xiao Hong nodded, "It's true, I saw it all just now. A large group of people from the Madam's Courtyard are in our late spring garden."
Ye Jinsu was puzzled. "What is Second Mother doing?"
"What else can I do? I merely suspect you." Little Red answered.
"Talking too much!" How can you say that about Second Mother! " Ye Jinsu pretended to be angry and scolded Xiao Hong. Xiao Hong immediately shut her mouth.
As he spoke, he looked towards the old lady for help.
The old lady's expression turned ugly as she looked unhappily at Madame Xie. "Speak, what are you trying to do?"
Lady Xie's expression didn't look too good either. Firstly, everything that happened before was outside of her expectations, and it gave her quite a bit of a shock. Secondly, this Ye Jinsu didn't seem to be in a hurry. Could he have some tricks up his sleeves?
With a stomach full of uncertainty and questions, Madam Xie choked on her words and said, "Earlier, when little sister Si Xiang died in vain, this servant felt that there was something else behind it. However, this servant is the mother of a family, I can't possibly punish someone for their crimes without evidence. "
"Send people to investigate this matter secretly …"
"Oh." The old lady didn't seem to be moved by his words and instead sneered. "I just plucked your melon teeth not too long ago, and now there's a new one?"
Lady Xie was greatly alarmed and quickly waved her hands in denial, "That's not it, my wife doesn't dare."
"My wife ordered it, it's all the people that the old master arranged for me in the courtyard." "They are all loyal people. It is my fault that I ordered them to do this."
Madam Xie's words were flawless, so the Old Granny could only continue asking coldly, "Then what did you find out?"
At this point, Lady Xie hesitated. She stared at Ye Jinsu evasively before lowering her head again.
"Before, when Granny's room was haunted, Master sent someone to investigate the Eldest Miss's yard."
"Although it means that on the surface, there were no problems, but the wife found out that Hong Yun did …" It's connected to the Sunset Spring Garden. "
As they talked, the Xie Clan's voice got smaller and smaller. After a few rounds of discussion, they finally got to the main point. However, her words still shocked many people.
"Although Second Mother has doubts in her heart, she doesn't dare to be sure. She doesn't dare to act rashly in fear of alarming the snake by hitting the grass." "So you used the special ceremony tonight to send me away, and then Second Mother sent people to check up on my Twilight Garden."
"Is that so?" Ye Jinsu smiled.
