Old Madame Ye had been living a peaceful life these past few days. Ever since she had opened her heart to him, the atmosphere between her and her granddaughter had become more harmonious. It was as if they had returned to the past.

It looks like Jin Lan had followed the old master this entire time. He would rather eat the soft than the strong!

"Old lady." When Miao Ning who had just become a servant entered the room, she saw that Old Madame Ye looked to be in a trance, the words that were about to reach her mouth immediately started to come out.

Old Madame Ye regained her senses. When she saw Miao Ning's cowardly look, she was instantly displeased. She furrowed her brows and asked, "What's so noisy about?"

Miao Ning was so scared that she didn't even dare to breathe, "Reporting to the old granny, the Second Miss is here."

"The Girl Lan is here?" Old Madame Ye's eyes lit up, but when she came into contact with Miao Ning, she immediately waved her hands in annoyance, "Then why didn't you invite Second Miss in!?

Miao Ning had always supported Yan Rong, so the servants who were in a hurry had never served him in the main rooms before. Therefore, they were not clear about the Old Madame Ye's temperament, and upon being scolded like that, they became even more flustered. Their hearts thumped as they knelt on the ground, and stammered: "Other than you, who left the Second Miss, my wife is also here."

Madame SHen also came? Old Madame Ye's eyes suddenly became stern, didn't they say that she was ill and was running out of time?

Miao Ning did not know what she said wrongly, but she saw that Old Madame Ye's face was as black as ink, causing her to immediately lower her head and tremble in fear.

He originally thought that this girl looked smart, and was useful, but he never expected her to be so timid. Old Madame Ye turned her head in disgust and shouted: "Since Madam has come, let us enter together." As a result, she looked at Miao Ning who was still stuck on the ground like a log and became angry, "What are you still standing there for? Could it be that you want me to personally invite him? "

Miao Ning shivered, she quickly got up and retreated, but immediately picked up the curtains and locked it on Pin Yue who was leading them in.

Pin Yue had sharp eyes, and instantly saw Miao Ning's reddened eyes, and immediately understood what was going on, so she revealed a comforting smile to her.

Miao Ning smiled gratefully before hurriedly bowing her head to Madame SHen and Jin Lan. Only after everyone had entered the house did she hurriedly leave.

Although Jin Lan felt that this servant looked unfamiliar, she wasn't too interested in the matter of Jiayu Hall. She thought about it briefly in her heart before putting it aside and respectfully bowed to Old Madame Ye together with Madame SHen.

"Old lady."

"Grandmother."

"Alright, alright. All of you, get up." Old Madame Ye still did not have a good expression towards Madame SHen, and did not even want to look at him once, so she casually said a few words to pass.

Jin Lan's smile was tranquil. He immediately grabbed Old Madame Ye's hand and snuggled into Old Madame Ye's embrace like a snake and gently called out: "Grandmother."

Seeing her granddaughter being so dependent, Old Madame Ye's expression became even more amiable. She patted her petite body and asked: "Why aren't you here today to accompany Grandmother for breakfast?" There was a hint of complaint in his voice.

After serving the tea, Pin Yue retreated to a corner and scanned the entire hall quickly. The old lady seemed to view Second Miss more and more seriously.

When the topic of breakfast was brought up, the smile on Jin Lan's face froze. He quickly lowered his head, as if he was unwilling to say more.

The Old Madame Ye had always been looking at her, so how could she miss a single detail? Her face immediately darkened. "What?" But you were wronged by your mother? Speak of it, and listen to Grandmother. Grandmother will make the decision for you! " As she spoke, she glared fiercely at Madame SHen, who was seated below her.

Only now did he realize that even though Madame SHen's mental fortitude was not bad, his face was still pale and he looked like someone who was ready to fight at any moment.

Only then did Old Madame Ye feel better.

Jin Lan didn't dare to let the old lady turn her gaze to her mother. If she revealed any flaws, it would be a waste of time. She immediately sat up and rubbed her eyes with the handkerchief. Her dry eyes quickly reddened, and two drops of tears fell down.

"What the hell is going on? Girl Lan won't cry, with Grandmother here, no one will be able to bully you today! " Old Madame Ye had never seen Jin Lan like this, she was even more certain that Madame SHen was the culprit, while she coaxed Jin Lan's sharp sword like gaze to poke at her body, she wanted to pierce thousands of holes on her body to vent her anger.

He slowly moved the handkerchief away and the tears that were falling gradually stopped, as he told her everything that had happened. Of course, he omitted many details that the old lady should not know, and only heavily pointed out the matter of Man Ping and Little Xiu poisoning him. As for what had happened previously, he did not mention anything.

"What?" Poison!? " Old Madame Ye was furious, she wanted to order Pin Yue to call him over, but when her eyes met Madame SHen, they immediately lit up, "The Ye Mansion have always been strict, could it be that there is some misunderstanding?"

"Grandmother, this matter has been investigated." Jin Lan sniffed, then shook his head: "There's no misunderstanding, it's true. Man Ping and Little Xiu admitted to it."

Confession? Old Madame Ye scoffed in her heart, not to mention the fact that the two maids were both people of Shuixie Pavilion, the one called Man Ping was also a servant girl beside Madame SHen, so there was no way she could possibly have anything to do with Madame SHen.

Thinking about Concubine Shao's bulging stomach, Old Madame Ye felt even more certain that she was right. It must be because Madame SHen was afraid of Concubine Shao threatening her position as the baby, that she spent so much effort to make this play!

While thinking about it, she looked at Jin Lan. Although this girl was intelligent, she was still young in the end. She might be kept in the dark by others.

He immediately threw himself into the old lady's embrace, taking the chance to block her view. Quickly, he wiped his eyes with the handkerchief, and the tears that he had stopped flowed down once again, "Grandmother, Lan Er originally wanted to hide it from Grandmother, he didn't want to let Grandmother worry, but as matters are now, Lan Er cannot do it anymore."

"Why?" Old Madame Ye frowned, she stared straight at her, and said in a serious tone: "There's actually something you're hiding from me? Hurry up and say it! "

At this moment, Jin Lan said the words that he had heard from the Lingji Temple and Buddhist Abbot Hui Wu, "Lan Er is thinking, Mother's noble residence has people secretly harming the Eldest Wife, if that person had evil intentions towards Grandmother and Father, then, what will Lan Er do!?"

At the beginning, Jin Lan had used a method to make himself cry, but the more he spoke, the more he felt wronged. Everything that happened in the past, as well as this life, he had never experienced the pain of losing his mother.

However, she could not say anything, she could not do anything. Otherwise, if she caused the old lady to feel disgusted, with the old lady's strong personality, she would most likely call a deer horse, and admit that she had sinned!

She lowered her head and bit her lower lip. Despite the fishy taste in her mouth, she did not notice it at all.

The Old Madame Ye let Jin Lan hug him, one hand gently patting her slender back, her originally kind eyes became stern, and her anger that was dispelled by suspicion rose again. The actions of the Girl Lan did not seem to be fake, if the matter of Lingji Temple was really true …

Jin Lan could feel the anger of the Old Madame Ye. He leaned into her embrace and sobbed for a while, then slowly raised his head and looked at the old lady firmly with his wet eyes, "Grandmother, the Buddhist Abbot Hui Wu is willing to testify for Lan Er."

Buddhist Abbot Hui Wu had long wandered around the world and disappeared without a trace, it was simply impossible for her to testify to her words. However, no matter how Jin Lan gambled, the old lady wouldn't be able to wait any longer.

Of course, if one were to say that the old lady valued the person she cherished the most, it would be her own fault!

Knowing that there was such a method and poison in this manor, how could she remain calm?

Sure enough, the Old Madame Ye hugged Jin Lan as she slightly narrowed her eyes. The expression on her face was unfathomable, and after a moment, he suddenly said to Pin Yue in a heavy voice: "Go and Bright Autumn Pavilion bring the Concubine Shao here!"

Pin Yue's heart moved slightly, and she quickly replied and left.

She had been serving the old lady since she was young. Although she did not receive much attention from Yan Rong, her thoughts were extremely sharp, and what Second Miss had said just now clearly caught the old lady's attention, so she did not dare to say much about it in the Bright Autumn Pavilion. The only explanation was that the old lady had asked the aunt to go there.

Concubine Shao slapped Pin Yue's face and told her to wait outside, while she herself slowly went in to dress up.

She didn't dare to disobey the old lady's orders, but Concubine Shao believed that Ye Jinwei was about to return home. If the old lady wanted to bring her to welcome her daughter, she had to dress up first before she could leave.

Looking at the noble and graceful face in the water caltrop mirror, the Concubine Shao nodded her head in satisfaction. Then, with a big belly, she supported Su Xin and went out of the door, only to discover that Pin Yue did not arrange any Soft Palanquin s.

With this twist, Old Madame Ye had to wait for more than half an hour. The anger in her heart, which was originally just a fiery spark, had already been ignited into a raging prairie fire!

"Greetings to the old lady." Concubine Shao caressed her stomach, and then stood up with her knees bent indiscernibly. Her gaze turned to look at Madame SHen, who was sitting at the side, and Man Ping and Little Xiu who were kneeling on the ground with their mouths tightly tied up. Her heart skipped a beat, but her face revealed a perfect smile: So big sister was also with the old lady, but, look at the situation, did something happen to the servant girl from Shuixie Pavilion?

Madame SHen had already regained her senses, the blood on her lips had been wiped away, but there was still a red mark left, which was not too obvious when matched with the color of her lips.

She raised her head and looked at Concubine Shao, who was beaming with happiness, and suddenly let out a rare smile, "There's no helping it, there are always some greedy servants in this world."

Concubine Shao's expression immediately became unsightly. She glared at Madame SHen hatefully, and smiled when she turned towards him, trying to curry favor with him. "Did the old lady summon me here for First Miss? I wonder where First Miss's carriage is? "

The Old Madame Ye was furious, but after sweeping a glance at sher fat stomach, he could only suppress his anger and gloomily stared at the exquisite face, "Do you recognize the maidservants kneeling below?"

Concubine Shao laughed, "Seems familiar, the one on the left is the servant girl in elder sister's room, she is called Man Ping right? I often come here to collect my monthly reports, so I've seen you a few times. "

Hearing that this matter was unrelated to him, Man Ping's face changed. He could no longer care about the hemp rope tied tightly around his body, and struggled towards her with all his might, shaking his head while shouting.

Concubine Shao acted as though she was scared, holding her stomach, she leaned on Su Xin and retreated a few steps, and said anxiously: "This, this servant girl, she can't have lost her mind, right? "Old Granny, quickly pry her out. If she really hurts you, that would not be good!"

Jin Lan did not say anything, and just laid in Old Madame Ye's embrace. Everything had already been arranged, and she only needed to watch.

Man Ping shook her head fiercely a few times, and the rag in her mouth was actually flung out by her, as miserable wails instantly gushed out: "Old granny, everything this servant has done was done with the knowledge of the Concubine Shao, she caused people to break down and jump into the great god's schemes, tricking this servant's parents and siblings, forcing this slave to poison her wife, if not, then this servant's entire family would have been sold off to a place that no one can see! This servant is the real thing, the real thing … I beg the old lady to enlighten me, I beg the old lady to enlighten me! "

As he spoke, he slammed the green brick floor, causing a blood-red flower to bloom!
