Ye Jintang's words made He Xiang dumbfounded.

She could never have imagined that Ye Jintang was not a person who played by the rules.

If she were an ordinary girl in the back house, even if she didn't like He Xiang, she would still look up to her for the sake of the old lady's face.

As a result, Ye Jintang didn't buy it at all and sent the person back directly.

He Xiang was very clear about the purpose of her coming here. If she was sent back like this, she would be badly injured even if she didn't die.

"Sixth Miss, please spare me. I have not been disrespectful to you. I just spoke a little bluntly. Please don't send me back."

"If this servant is sent back, she will definitely be punished by the old lady."

He Xiang was so scared that her eyes turned red and she knelt on the ground with a thud.

"A maid should have her duties as a maid. I'll forgive you this time. If you let me hear something I don't like, I won't just send you back to the old lady."

"Yes, I will remember what the young lady said."

Ye Jintang waved his hand, signaling the two to go out.

"Madam Zhang, please look at them and see what their purpose is. I don't believe that Madam Ye is so kind as to suddenly send two maids to me."

"Yes, I will keep an eye on them."

Nanny Zhang is also a veteran in the backyard, so she naturally knows how to keep an eye on Yunshuang and Hexiang.

Ye Jintang will go to pay his respects to Old Madam Ye tomorrow, and has already chosen a set of tea-white clothes, which is whiter than jade.

Didn't the old lady like her to pay her respects? Then don't blame her for making things difficult for her.

The next morning, Ye Jintang, who was half asleep, was dug out of bed by Luzhu.

After washing and changing clothes, Ye Jintang came out of the house and was finally awakened by the cold wind.

"You are so cruel, old woman. I got up so early to greet you. Aren't you afraid of shortening your life?"

Ye Jintang came to Fushou Garden in a bad mood. Just after passing the Moon Gate, he saw Ye Yanran and other girls coming out of Madam Ye's room.

She wondered in her heart, why did they come to pay their respects to the old lady so long in advance today?

"Sixth sister is here, go and pay your respects to grandma. Grandma has already had breakfast and is preparing to go to the Buddhist temple to chant sutras."

"Yes, I'll be right there."

Ye Jintang nodded to the other sisters and walked quickly towards Old Madam Ye's room.

As soon as he reached the corridor, Nanny Sun stopped Ye Jintang.

"Sixth Miss, please wait a moment. The old lady has already entered the Buddhist hall. Miss, you need to pay your respects to the old lady. I'm afraid you will have to wait for a while."

"Okay, then I'll go wait for grandma outside."

Ye Jintang smiled indifferently at Nanny Sun, and before she could react, he had already walked into the house.

"Sixth Miss?"

Originally, Sun wanted to make Ye Jintang stand in the corridor for two hours to dampen her enthusiasm.

Who would have thought that Ye Jintang would not play by the rules at all. She went straight into the house to wait for the old lady.

The house where Old Madam Ye lived was very big. Entering from the main house, the three middle rooms on the east side were the old lady's living room, and the three rooms on the west side were the reception hall and additional rooms where maids and old women stayed.

After entering the room, Ye Jintang calmly sat down beside the small table. Lu Zhu, who was serving him, immediately handed him a hand warmer.

Looking at Nanny Sun's ugly expression, Ye Jintang felt amused. It was simply a pipe dream to want to punish her by making her stand.

Old Madam Ye lit a stick of incense in the small Buddhist temple in the inner room. She no longer had the heart to recite scriptures. She was almost pissed off to death by Ye Jintang.

"Let that unruly girl in."

Old Madam Ye, with a sullen face, sat upright on the Arhat bed, holding a string of prayer beads in her hand, rolling them continuously.

"Granddaughter pays her respects to her grandmother."

Ye Jintang's crisp voice made Old Madam Ye even more annoyed.

"Sixth girl, when you were in Yuezhou City, did your mother hire a nanny to take care of you?"

"Of course there are, but unfortunately my foster nanny was unlucky and died with my mother."

"I see. The rules in our mansion are naturally much stricter than those in Yuezhou City."

"I think your behavior is really unbecoming. You don't have any rules for a legitimate daughter of a marquisate. I will choose a nanny for you and have her teach you the rules of the marquisate and the rules of the capital."

"In the future, when you go out, you won't lose face for the Marquis's Mansion."

"Grandma is right. When I was at my grandma's house, my grandpa said the same thing. Aunt Zhang is the nanny that my grandpa hired for his granddaughter. She used to be the nanny for the little princess in Princess Rongping's mansion."

As soon as Ye Jintang said this, Old Madam Ye could only feel the blood vessels in her head bulging.

What she said implicitly was telling Madam Ye that if she were to find a nanny for her, she had to be better than Nanny Zhang.

The county princess's nanny has been invited by Ye Jintang, so can she invite the princess's nanny?

"In that case, I will select an old maid from the mansion to tell you the rules of the mansion."

"Yes, I will follow Grandmother's instructions."

Ye Jintang's reply was so straightforward, and there was no sign of disrespect towards Old Madam Ye at all.

After the two of them exchanged a few words, Old Madam Ye began to have a headache. Ye Jintang's tea-white clothes were really eye-catching.

On the first day of setting the rules, Ye Jintang won, and Mrs. Ye was so angry that she didn't even eat lunch.

The next day, Ye Jintang woke up half an hour earlier on purpose. This time she came earlier than the other sisters. Several ladies in the room greeted the old lady good night and did not even leave.

"Madam, the Sixth Miss is here."

Madam Ye, who had just finished breakfast, frowned instantly.

Last night, she and Nanny Sun came up with a new way to deal with Ye Jintang.

"Let her in."

Ye Jintang entered the room and saw several ladies sitting inside.

She had been in the Danyang Marquis's Mansion for quite some time, but the aunts had never met her formally.

"Sixth girl, Nanny Sun said that you have started copying scriptures. Grandma thought that when you copy scriptures, you will definitely be able to be influenced by Buddhism. Grandma has not been able to sleep well at night these days. Why don't you go to the small Buddhist temple and recite scriptures for grandma. Maybe, grandma will sleep well at night."

Madam Ye's words sounded very reasonable, and everyone present knew very well that if Ye Jintang went to the small Buddhist temple to chant, he would probably have to kneel in there for several hours before being released.

Mrs. Gan, who was sitting next to Old Madam Ye, looked at Ye Jintang with gloating eyes.

So what if she is pretty? The old lady still dislikes her.

"Grandma, I only copied half a page of the sutra. I don't think I have any knowledge of Buddhism. I'm afraid I can't help you chant the sutra."

Ye Jintang looked at Old Madam Ye a little embarrassedly. She was not lying. She had been asking Zhou Cong to help her find a suitable pen these days, but she was not in a hurry to copy the scriptures before she found one.

"Sixth girl, I think you are deliberately not wanting to help your grandmother chant the sutras. This is just an excuse for yourself."

"Grandma, don't be angry. In fact, when you have a headache, you can go directly to the doctor and ask the doctor to prescribe some medicine, and it will be relieved soon."

"Reciting scriptures cannot cure pain. I am weak and have taken a lot of medicine since I was a child. I will have a headache and fever at the slightest sign of trouble. At this time, my mother will find a doctor to help me, not recite scriptures."

Ye Jintang spoke so righteously that Old Madam Ye was so angry that she almost fainted on the spot.

She just didn't understand why Ye Jintang was so different from other noble ladies in the marquis's mansion.
