Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

Ye Chongde’s face turned pale.

"When the aunt fell into the water, somehow, the eldest lady was dragged down with her." As soon as Yulan said this, everyone in the yard changed their expressions.

Ye Chongde was stunned for a long time, unable to speak, and pointed at Yulan and asked: "Why didn't you explain it clearly at that time?"

Why did the Third Aunt say that it was Ye Yunzi who pushed her?

Ye Chongde's thoughts were in a mess and his face became increasingly gloomy.

Yulan fell to her knees with a plop, her body trembling: "Your servant..."

Su Huan's face was calm and his eyes were deep, making it hard to guess what he was thinking: "It seems that Master Ye has wronged Yun Zi. She didn't push anyone, but you falsely accused her like this."

"This..." Ye Chongde was speechless, "Go and invite Third Aunt over quickly, I want to ask her in person!"

The third aunt was recuperating in Wenmayuan. Although she also fell into the water, she was not seriously affected because she knew how to swim. She recovered quickly and the fetus in her belly was also safe and sound.

In contrast, Ye Yunzi lay in bed for two days before waking up, and almost lost half her life.

These days, the supplements and high-quality medicinal materials sent by Ye Chongde have nourished Third Aunt to a fair and tender complexion. Her cheeks have a healthy blush and she looks a hundred times more energetic than before she fell into the water.

She was reclining comfortably on the chaise longue, enjoying the maid peeling grapes for her and fanning herself leisurely to cool off.

Suddenly, Zi Yi rushed in, her face changed drastically, and reported: "Aunt, the master wants you to go to Zijin Courtyard immediately!"

"Zijinyuan?" The third concubine's heart tightened. Why go to Zijinyuan? She was still recuperating. Didn't the master promise to take care of everything?

"Mom!" Ye Ziru also frowned, her eyes full of worry.

"What happened in Zijinyuan?" The third concubine asked, staring at Ziyi.

Zi Yi shook her head, indicating that she didn't know the details, she only knew that the master urged her aunt to go there as soon as possible.

……

The Third Aunt and Ye Ziru walked towards Zijin Courtyard and found it unusually lively. In the backyard that was rarely visited by outsiders, there was a dashing man standing at the door today.

He exudes an aristocratic temperament, has a handsome appearance, and his deep purple eyes reveal a cold and calmness.

Ye Ziru couldn't help but take a few more glances and felt that this man was more attractive than Mr. Pei.

When the third concubine approached, she deliberately acted weak and needed the support of a maid to walk.

"Master, is there something urgent? Why did you suddenly call me over?" asked the third aunt.

Ye Chongde stared at the Third Aunt, his face uncertain, and asked coldly: "Tell me, what happened on the day you fell into the water? Did you fall into the water by yourself?"

When Third Aunt heard this question, her heart tightened. Why did they bring up the matter of falling into the water again?

She has already pushed all the responsibility onto Ye Yunzi, and Ye Chongde has also punished Zijinyuan. Logically, the matter should have ended there.

"..." The third aunt hesitated and was speechless for a moment.

Ye Chongde's expression became increasingly ugly, and he ordered, "Tell the truth!"

His cold shout made Third Aunt's heart beat fast.

She had never seen Ye Chongde with such a gloomy expression, and was at a loss for words. She had no choice but to follow the previous statement: "It was the eldest lady who pushed me into the water."

"Was it really Yunzi who pushed you down?" Ye Chongde confirmed again.

The third aunt was worried, but she was determined.

She knew that all the servants by the pond that day had been sent away by her, and only she and Ye Yunzi were left at the scene. As long as she insisted that it was Ye Yunzi who did it, no one else would know the truth.

So, she said firmly: "Yes, it was the young lady who pushed me. When I was struggling, I accidentally dragged the young lady into the water..."

The servants of Zijin Court had different expressions when they heard this. Su Huan narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Ye Chongde's expression became unpredictable, and the whole courtyard was filled with an indescribable strange atmosphere. The Third Aunt was wondering in her heart, could something have gone wrong?

"Yulan, you tell us about it." Ye Chongde said lightly.

Trembling, Yulan described the scene of that day again, and Third Aunt's face turned pale.

How is it possible... How is it possible that there are still people who haven't left that place?

She had clearly arranged for all the servants to leave, so how could one of them slip through the net?

The Third Aunt stared at Yulan in disbelief, while Yulan lowered her head, not daring to meet the gazes that were shooting at her like arrows from all directions.

"What else do you have to say? You said that it was Yunzi who pushed you into the water. Is that true?" Ye Chongde was still skeptical. Compared to the words of a servant, he was more inclined to believe the Third Aunt. Deep in his heart, he had already leaned towards her.

"Yes, yes..." The third aunt looked anxious.

Ye Ziru, who was standing by, secretly clenched her fists, then stood up and defended herself, "It must be that this servant was standing too far away and saw it wrongly. How could Auntie wrongly accuse Second Sister!"

"Yes, even if I had the courage of heaven, I would not dare to attack the eldest lady." The third concubine quickly agreed.

Ye Chongde's expression began to waver, and he looked at Yulan with suspicion.

Yulan simply knelt on the ground and insisted: "Every word I say is true and I never lie."

……

Inside the house, even though the door was closed, the conversation outside could still be heard faintly. Ye Yunzi had no expression on her face. She had long given up hope that Ye Chongde would side with the Third Aunt even in the face of irrefutable evidence, so naturally she was not disappointed.

Su Yongyu frowned, feeling so angry that he had no place to vent.

How had Su Shi wronged him that he would do such a ridiculous thing as favoring his concubine over his wife? Yunzi was his own flesh and blood, but because of a concubine, he made Yunzi suffer all kinds of grievances.

Now that someone has come forward to prove that what happened that day had nothing to do with Yun Zi, he doesn't even have the heart to investigate.

This is so stupid! This is the most outrageous thing in the world!

Su Yongyu stood up suddenly, opened the door and walked out, saying coldly: "Is this how Master Ye judges things? He only believes one side of the story."

Su Yongyu looked around and his eyes finally fell on the third aunt.

The Third Aunt has been well maintained and still looks as young as a girl, but it is this woman who makes life miserable for everyone in Zijin Courtyard.

Ye Chongde really believed what the Third Aunt said. He firmly believed that Wan'er would not lie. What benefit would it bring to her if she harmed Ye Yunzi?

"How about this, let's ask all the maids and servants in the mansion. The pond is so spacious, there will always be people passing by. If one person sees it, there will probably be a second one." Su Yongyu said coldly.

He gave a look, signaling the servants of Zijin Courtyard to retreat first and look for the people who witnessed the scene of Third Aunt falling into the water that day.

The Third Aunt looked at the man with sharp eyes, feeling that her thoughts were being seen through. She called out softly with grievance, "Master!"

She held her belly and swayed slightly.

Seeing this, Ye Chongde hurried forward to help: "What's wrong?"
