Mrs Xie never expected Ye Jinsu to be so calm, even to the point of saying the words she had prepared a long time ago.

Since Ye Jinsu had said so, she didn't know how to respond.

He could only say dryly, "Yes ?" "Yes."

Ye Jinsu nodded, expressing her understanding. She did not even try to defend herself, "I believe Second Mother did not wrongly accuse me. I wonder what kind of clues Second Mother's people found?"

Ye Jinsu's words sounded weird, and Lady Xie's expression didn't look too good, but she held it in.

When the old lady heard this, she turned her head to the side and saw Ye Jinsu's face. The old lady narrowed her eyes. Her little granddaughter's words were rather interesting.

Obviously, she believed in Ye Jinsu even more.

He looked at the expressionless Old Master again, but the old lady simply put her hands in her pockets and stopped talking.

Ye Jinsu looked at the old lady's unfazed expression and understood what was going on. He turned to Huaiyu, who was standing beside Lady Xie, and pointed at her. "You speak."

For a moment, she could not think of any good way to deal with it. She could only follow her previous performance and cried a few times towards Ye Zhenzi, "Yes, before we found out that Madam was poisoned, Hongyun often appeared in the vicinity of Sunset Spring Garden, and was on good terms with the people there."

Ye Jinsu raised her eyebrows and stretched her voice, "So that's how it is ? ?"

"I don't know who Miss Huaiyu found out, but who is Hong Yun on good terms with in my yard?"

Huaiyu was stunned.

He had been in too much of a hurry today. This trap should have been ready for another two days, until the day that Si Xiangtou Seven was buried. Everything should have been ready. When the time came, it would naturally be a fatal blow to Ye Jinsu, but the Xie Clan did not expect her to cause a ghost in advance.

Being forced into a corner, the Xie Clan could only think of a way to suppress Ye Jinsu.

Otherwise, on the first seven days, the Xie Clan would have no chance of winning.

At this point, Huai Yu gripped her sleeves and tried to think. She couldn't say anything wrong. Ye Jinsu's calm demeanor clearly meant that she had some tricks up her sleeve.

If she said anything wrong, she would be digging holes for herself and the Xie Clan.

After some thought, Huai Yu finally said: "Yes ?" "It's Cui Er."

Ye Jinxiu was controlling the people in the courtyard so tightly that it was almost impossible to break through them in just a few days. They had known this Cui Er from a long time ago. She had gotten into an average position in the late spring garden and had appeared in front of Ye Jinsu a few times. There were certain conditions.

This Cui Er's personality was also very perverted. After getting a little bit of power, he began to show off his strength, secretly making profits for himself. His appetite was not small, but his brain wasn't that good.

In short, it was not pleasing.

The most important thing was that before Cui Er had been transferred into the Twilight Garden, she had indeed befriended Hong Yun.

That was enough.

After Huaiyu finished, she glanced at the Xie family nervously. Only after seeing that Lady Xie had no objections to her words did she dare to relax.

In another two days, in Cui'er's room, all sorts of evidence in the late spring garden would be arranged without a hitch. But now, she could only act accordingly. At worst, she could just take care of everything by herself.

She must not let her mistress be troubled. Huaiyu made up her mind.

All of this naturally fell into Ye Jinsu's eyes.

She vaguely remembered this Cui Er, but she did not understand her. However, those chosen by the Xie Clan must have already figured it out beforehand.

"Xiao Hong, go bring Cui Er and Er Niang's people over." Ye Jinsu indifferently spoke to Little Red.

From beginning to end, she had been terrifyingly calm.

Madam Xie's eyes were fixed on Ye Jinsu. Everyone could tell that she was being targeted. Why was she still able to remain so calm and collected?

Could it be that she had already discovered his intentions? Mrs Xie could not help but guess.

However, very quickly, the Xie Clan denied their existence. That was impossible.

Countless fiery gazes were fixated on Ye Jinsu, as if they wanted to prick a hole in her body.

Even the Old Granny and Old Master couldn't help but look at Ye Jinsu. Her performance was simply too unfathomable.

In addition to these two naked eyes, there were also the dagger-like gazes of Ye Zhenzi and Ye Jinru. Ye Jinsu took them one by one. He didn't even need to look at Ye Jinsu to guess that Ye Zhenzu was definitely furious.

Because of the old lady and the Old Master, he did not speak.

As for Ye Jingru, she didn't even bother to look at her.

He really couldn't ignore the old lady and the Old Master's searching gazes. Ye Jinsu turned around and said, "Grandmother, please believe in my granddaughter. My granddaughter definitely has to find a clear reason for her death."

The old lady did not say anything, admitting it.

The Old Master still could not tell what he was thinking. On the other hand, Ye Jinsu revealed an unexpected smile and glanced at the Old Master.

This short exchange of glances was concealed under the light of the summer night's candle, and did not escape the eyes of the Xie Clan.

The Xie Clan instantly became nervous. Could it be that at some point in time, her relationship with the Old Master had improved?

Speaking of which, Ye Jinsu had taken control of the situation from the beginning, was this what they had discussed before? Mrs Xie couldn't help but ponder deeply.

Under the dim candlelight, Madam Xie wasn't sure if she had seen clearly, but she couldn't help but think in this direction.

Although this old man was taciturn and did not like to get involved with the family matters, the Xie Clan knew that he was not someone who was easy to deal with.

There was no time to think any further about it, Xiao Hong had already returned with Cui Er and the Xie Clan's men.

Cui Er was brought here tied up by all sorts of things. Seeing this big battle, she did not have much courage to begin with. He was so frightened that he could no longer speak. All he could do was beg for forgiveness.

Ye Jinsu looked at her and softly asked her, "Cui'er, you are from my courtyard. Second Mother said you bestowed this upon me by colluding with Hong Yun and poisoning Second Mother to frame Miss Si Xiang."

"Is that true?"

With these words, even Ye Jinsu felt that she had been thrown into a panic.

Cui'er was unable to calm down for a while, and only after a while did she manage to make sense of the situation. She shook her head in realization, "No, this servant did not. This servant has never done such a thing."

Hearing Cui'er's words, Ye Jinsu raised her head to look at the Xie Clan's men.

"I wonder, aunts, what did you find in my courtyard?"

Although a few of them were older than her, she was still the direct daughter of the Ye Residence. She lowered her status and called everyone 'aunt'. It could be said that she had made enough of her reputation.

The leader of the group had been full of energy and was prepared to give Ye Jinsu a blow, but now that he was called 'aunt', he could no longer shout at her anymore.

If they did, they would have taken off their slovenly hats.

The leading aunt Kong cleared her throat, took out a bulging bag of cloth from her bosom and handed it to Ye Zhenzi. "Master, we found this in Miss's yard."
