When Nanny Sun asked someone to check the scriptures, she also felt that Ye Jintang was lying. Even if the scriptures were copied with a black silk pen, it would be almost impossible to finish copying them within a few days.

There is only one possibility, Ye Jintang is lying.

Humph! She dared to lie to the old lady in front of so many people. She probably didn't know how powerful the old lady was. She would be in trouble soon.

Several ladies and noble girls who were watching nearby were also whispering to each other.

They were not familiar with Ye Jintang, and just looking at the matter of copying scriptures, they felt that it was almost impossible.

"Sixth sister is young and ignorant, grandma, please don't be angry."

Ye Yanran walked out of the crowd, bowed to Old Madam Ye, and continued, "There are so many scriptures that we can't check them all at once. It won't be too late to check them after the birthday banquet."

"Grandmother understands your love for your sister, but I must get to the bottom of this matter today in front of all our relatives and friends."

"Girls can be a little stupid, but they must not lie. If you can deceive me, your grandmother, today, and then you marry someone else and tell lies, I'm afraid people will criticize me and say I didn't raise my granddaughter well."

Old Madam Ye looked very sad, and those who didn't know would think that Ye Jintang was really lying.

"Sister, grandmother, don't worry. It won't be too late to make a conclusion after Nanny Sun has finished checking everything."

Watching the two of them acting, Ye Jintang just felt funny, especially Ye Yanran. With so many ladies around, how could it be the turn of a junior like her to point fingers here? She was just trying to make a name for herself in the name of protecting her younger sister.

Ye Yanran is the heroine in the original novel, so she is naturally not a fool. She has suddenly become so aggressive. Could it be that she is angry and embarrassed because she failed to get any information from her last time and is now causing trouble for her?

She is so narrow-minded. How can she be the heroine? It seems that the aura of the heroine in the original novel is a bit too strong.

"Sixth sister, don't be angry with grandma. Grandma is doing this for your own good. That's why she asked you to copy scriptures for your parents."

"Now if you admit your mistake to grandma, she won't let Grandma Sun embarrass you by checking the scriptures again."

Ye Yanran seemed to be helping Ye Jintang in every way she said, but in fact she wanted to prove that Ye Jintang had forged the scriptures.

If an unmarried girl is full of lies and even dares to lie about something as important as copying scriptures, then her reputation will be completely ruined and she will have trouble getting married in the future.

Thinking of this, Ye Jintang felt cold in his heart. Ye Yanran was really vicious. She wanted to destroy her life.

"Thank you for your kindness, elder sister. I don't quite understand. If you are kind to me, you shouldn't be so low-key instead of being so ostentatious. You've been nagging for so long, I don't know if you would think I'm lying. Be careful with your words, elder sister."

With just a few words, Ye Jintang tore apart all of Ye Yanran's disguise in front of everyone.

It's simply wishful thinking for her to use her to elevate herself.

"you you."

Ye Yanran didn't expect Ye Jintang to speak to her so directly. She hesitated for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

After a long while, she blushed and said, "I mean well. Since Sixth Sister doesn't appreciate it, just pretend that I didn't say anything."

As she spoke, Ye Yanran stood beside Madam Gan with tears in her eyes, looking as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Mrs. Gan glared at Ye Jintang fiercely and whispered to comfort Ye Yanran.

Can’t you pretend to cry and sleep?

Ye Jintang bit his lips slightly and looked at Ye Yanran with tears in his eyes.

Other people have mothers to take care of them, but she is an orphan and has nothing. She is really pitiful.

Ye Jintang's eyes also turned red, and she tried hard not to let the tears fall.

Such a stubborn orphan girl makes her even more lovable.

The ladies and noble girls who were watching the scene were all so soft-hearted when they saw Ye Jintang like this, some even had tears in their eyes.

A quarter of an hour later, most of the scriptures had been checked. All the scriptures in them were copied by Ye Jintang stroke by stroke, without any falsehood. Nanny Sun began to panic.

"Check everything carefully, don't miss anything."

Nanny Sun couldn't help but give a few instructions.

Old Madam Ye, who was sitting in the seat of honor, picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip. She was not in a hurry and had even begun to think in her mind about how to deal with Ye Jintang.

Just then, the voices of several men were heard not far away.

"This plum garden is my grandmother's favorite. There are more than a dozen varieties of precious plum blossoms planted in it. One of them is called Green Beauty. The plum blossoms it blooms are as beautiful as jade balls."

The person who spoke was Ye Dong, the eldest grandson of the Ye family.

"Then my prince will appreciate it carefully."

"Your Highness the Fourth Prince, please."

"I am also honored by His Majesty the Fourth Prince to be able to see the beauty of Green Beauty."

"Lord Jiang, you've gone too far. Today, I am grateful to you. If I didn't know that you helped the Marquis of Danyang, how could Master Ye bring us to see such precious plum blossoms?"

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Ye was shocked. She didn't expect that the Fourth Prince and Jiang Zhi would come together at this time.

Seeing that Nanny Sun and others had spread out a pile of scriptures, it was too late to put them away.

Old Madam Ye gritted her teeth secretly. Was she going to agree to bury that bitch's son in the Ye family's ancestral tomb today?

No, she quickly thought of a way to get away with this.

She wanted Ye Li and his wife to be buried in the Ye family’s ancestral tomb, unless she died.

The other ladies and noble girls present did not expect to meet foreign men here.

Some girls whose families have strict rules have already put on hoods or veils.

"Madame Sun, hurry over and see if you can stop them."

As soon as Madam Ye finished speaking, Ye Song came over with his men.

Ye Song didn't expect that Merlin's banquet had not yet ended. Now that the two sides met, he could only bite the bullet and move forward.

"Hey, grandma, your plum blossom viewing party hasn't ended yet. I'm sorry for being abrupt."

Having said that, Ye Song bowed and apologized to the other ladies and girls.

Ye Dong, the Fourth Prince, and Jiang Zhi, who were following behind him, did not expect that there would be so many female relatives in the Plum Garden.

It was definitely too late to leave now, so they could only move forward.

When Old Madam Ye saw the Fourth Prince, she immediately stood up and led the other female relatives forward to pay their respects.

"Madam, please stand up quickly. Today is your birthday and we, the younger generation, should be the ones to pay you respects and congratulate you."

"National etiquette is the greatest, I dare not go beyond it."

The Fourth Prince pretended to support Madam Ye and accepted a half-bow from her.

However, Jiang Zhi, who was standing on the side, walked forward with a smile and saluted to Old Madam Ye, and said several auspicious words.

"Master Jiang is too polite. I have to thank you for helping my son's case. If it weren't for you, my son would have died in vain."

As she spoke, Old Madam Ye gently wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

"Mom, today is a happy day, let's not talk about these sad things anymore."

Madam Gan took the initiative to step forward and hold Madam Ye's arm. I didn't know if she thought Madam Ye was very sad.

As the few people were chatting, Jiang Zhi had already seen Ye Jintang standing not far away, looking like a little quail.

She quietly picked up several books from the stone table and held them in her arms. Her big eyes rolled around and she looked in the direction of the old lady and the fourth prince from time to time.

Based on his understanding of her, he had a vague feeling that she might be planning something bad.

The smile on Jiang Zhi's face couldn't help but deepen. He might as well help her.
