Ye JinSu suddenly raised her head and saw the old lady leaning on her walking stick as she slowly said, "There are words carved into Si Xiang's bell …"
Aunt Kong was overjoyed. "Old lady, may I ask, what characters are carved into Master Si Xiang's bell?"
The old lady sat down again and looked at the bell in a daze. "This bell was one that I went to the temple to beg for. The words' one hundred years of longevity 'are carved on it."
As she spoke, the old lady was filled with grief. The old lady couldn't help but wipe her tears when she was brought to grief.
Hearing that, Aunt Kong grabbed the bell in Xiao Hong's hand and inspected it under the candle flame. Through a small opening, a dim light shone in, and Aunt Kong examined it meticulously.
Suddenly, the light avoided the copper pearl and illuminated one side of the inner wall.
"Old lady!" There were words! They are the words' hundred years of longevity '! " Aunt Kong said loudly, holding the bell in the old lady's hand.
The old lady took the bell and held it close to the candle. However, the old lady was too old and blind. He could only pass it to the person beside him, "Quickly, check if it's true or not."
Ye Jinsu's breathing stagnated as she clenched her fists.
Damn it!
The bell was held up to the flame again, and this time it was soon seen. He even saw the blood inside the bell.
"Old lady, this is the bell Master Si Xiang had hung around her body when she was still alive!" The old servant beside the old lady bent his knees and kneeled.
The bell rang loudly.
Xiao Hong became anxious and shook its head, "No!"
"This doesn't belong to our young mistress!"
Ye Jinsu lowered her eyes and fiercely pulled Little Red's hand. What was the use of saying all these now, it would only increase his suspicions.
In this courtyard where no one knew what was happening outside, he didn't know if anyone would come to save Meng Lan.
All she could do was try her best to get rid of her suspicions.
Ye Zheng ferociously flicked his sleeve and pointed at the bell. "What else do you have to say?"
"Aunt Kong, may I ask where you found this bell?" Ye Jinsu raised her head and asked, staring at Aunt Kong with a fiery gaze.
She had prepared an excuse long ago.
"Under Miss's bed." Aunt Kong added, "At that time, everyone else was watching as I was taken out from under the First Miss's bed."
Aunt Kong spread out the cloth in her hands and said, "Master, please take a look. There's even dust under the bed on this cloth."
Ye Jinsu sneered and suddenly asked about something else, "From what Aunt Kong saw, I was the one who killed Miss Si Xiang and the one who caused a ghost in the old lady's room?"
"Of course it's eldest miss, we've already caught them all." Aunt Kong accepted it without hesitation.
As soon as she said that, the Xie Clan's complexion turned pale.
Ye Jinsu suddenly turned around and took the cloth from Aunt Kong's hand. There was indeed a thick layer of dust under the cloth. "The old lady's room was filled with the ghosts from last night. Miss Si Xiang's death won't last for more than a few days."
"If it's like you said, I should have taken this cloth bag out frequently and put it inside. There shouldn't have been any dust on it."
Ye Jinsu's words were sharp and pointed straight at Aunt Kong.
Aunt Kong could not answer for a while, so she stood rooted to the spot.
"Why aren't you speaking?" Ye Jinxiu asked frivolously as she threw the cloth in front of her, "Don't tell me that this is your fault?"
"No!" Aunt Kong was so frightened that she kneeled down, unable to answer. She could only desperately deny it. "That's not it. I found this under the bed. They all saw it. As for the dust …"
"This servant doesn't know either."
Seeing the situation turn around, Huaiyu, who was standing beside the Xie Clan, suddenly spoke, "Perhaps … "Maybe when he took it out, he rubbed it against some dust …"
Someone gave her a flight of stairs, and Aunt Kong followed it down, nodding her head. "That's right, that must be it."
"There is always dust under the bed, and it is narrow, and when you take it out there is dust everywhere. It's not impossible. " Aunt Kong then kowtowed to the ground, afraid that Ye Shisui would not believe her. "Please explain, my lord!"
Little Red gritted her teeth in anger, "What nonsense are you spouting? You're obviously framing us!"
No matter whether it was true or false, Ye Shisui was still very angry at this disrespectful Servant Qu. He pointed at Xiao Hong and scolded, "Where did the rules come from!? Before Master can say anything, it's your turn to interrupt! "
After all, Ye Zhonglou was the Lord. Xiao Hong bit its lips angrily and lowered its head to shut up.
"Then may I interrupt?" Ye Jinsu did not show any weakness as she looked over and did not forget to add, "Lord Father."
With the coldest gaze, he said the most respectful title.
Ye Zhonglou didn't feel the slightest bit of respect for her. He only felt that her eyes were as cold as her dead mother's. Twisting his head to the side, Ye Shisui didn't want to take another look.
He decided to settle this matter quickly. He couldn't let the Xie Clan remain frozen in place, nor could he give Ye Jinsu the chance to wallow in calamity.
"What else do you have to say?" Ye Shisui bit his lips. He did not give Ye Jinsu any chance to refute his words. "The stolen goods are all taken!"
"Why is the bell that is attached to Si Xiang's body in your hands?" "Why do you have a haunted bell in the old lady's room?"
Ye Shou sneered. "You really are my good daughter, a schemer at such a young age."
"Killed Si Xiang!" I want to frame my mother again! " Ye Shisui raised his voice. "I think you deserve to be beaten to death and expelled from the manor!"
Ye Jinsu clenched her fists tightly and lowered her head to cover the anger in her eyes. She couldn't help but feel her chest rising and falling.
What face did he have to say that the Xie Clan was her mother? Was she worthy?
Ye Jinsu wanted nothing more than to punch Ye Zheng's fake and disgusting face, to tear apart the Xie Clan's fake and fake face, and to smash this rotten fish that was the Ye Residence.
It was better to make these disgusting people rot and graze one by one in the huge and stinky fish pond in the House of Ye!
Only after a long while did Ye Jinsu finally calm down and confirm that she wouldn't do something irreparable impulsively.
"If I really am the one who harmed Si Xiang, why would I leave such an important piece of evidence in my courtyard?"
These words were directed towards the old lady.
The old lady was no longer able to distinguish, but the Old Master was rather calm, sitting to the side without saying a word.
Ye Jinsu looked at the Xie family again, "Second Mother said earlier that the people in my courtyard are colluding with Hong Yun."
"But speaking of this, Hong Yun's mother has been serving her second sister since she was young."
"Is this relationship even deeper?"
Ye Jinxiu spoke quickly and in a flash, a question was thrown over. The Xie Clan was momentarily at a loss as to how to answer it.
Before she could reply, Ye Jinsu spoke again, "Second Mother secretly brought people to search my courtyard. The people who tied me up have never been watched by the old lady or the old master before."
"Who knows what you did behind the scenes, Second Mother?"
Ye Jinxiu's words were sharp. Mrs Xie's eyes were wide open, and after staring for a long while, she could only cry.
Xiao Hong also stepped forward and looked at Cui Er, "Cui Er, in all honesty, this was given to my family's young miss by the madam."
