Chapter 28: PH Test Paper Demonstrates Its Power

Tang Henian was so excited that he wanted to slap his thigh. These two daughters were enough to give him a hard time. Now with another one, he felt like he was going crazy!

As soon as she entered the door, Tang Yilan stepped forward and bowed, saying, "I heard that Daddy has something to ask my personal maid? I brought her here! Xiangming, say hello to the master!"

Xiang Ming immediately bowed and said, "Master."

Ru Yihuan was also very surprised. She thought that this was just an inconspicuous maid. As long as this maid confessed her guilt, Luo Lan would be able to escape successfully. However, she didn't know... she didn't know that this was actually Tang Yilan's personal maid!

Tang Yiran said, "Dad, feel free to ask anything you want to ask. It's best to ask clearly and don't miss any details."

Tang Yiran reminded Xiang Ming who was kneeling on the ground: "When the master and the lady ask questions, you must tell the truth without any mistakes or concealment. If you have a problem, I will be the first one to not forgive you! If you have no problem, I will let those who slander you give you justice! Understand?" Tang Yiran glanced at everyone around him, then stood next to Tang Henian.

Xiang Ming had an idea after hearing this. She knew that the young lady was backing her up, and she definitely couldn't let the young lady down, so Xiang Ming replied, "I understand, young lady!"

Seeing this, Tang Henian had no choice but to ask, "On the day of Miss Zhilan's engagement, she sent you to deliver a secret letter to the other ladies. Is this true?"

"My lord, it is true. I was assigned to the eldest lady's room as a fire-making maid. There happened to be no one available in the room that day, so the lady sent me there. As the lady repeatedly emphasized the importance of the matter, I immediately put down my work and rushed to deliver the letter to the ladies." Xiang Ming replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Oh? Have you been to Luoshuiju too?" Tang Henian asked again.

"My lord, the second place I went to was Luoshuiju. When I got there, the Fourth Miss was playing with something, so I didn't see clearly. But the Fourth Miss took it herself and didn't ask anyone else to do it for her!" Xiang Ming said again.

"You bold and cunning slave! What nonsense! When have I ever seen you? You said I received it with my own hands? Do you have any evidence?" Tang Luolan stood up and pointed at Xiang Ming and cursed.

"I don't have any evidence, but I heard the young lady calling out 'Yuanzi' at that time. As I was concentrating on the secret letter, I didn't dare to listen carefully." Xiang Ming said in the direction of Tang Luolan. She spoke slowly and calmly, which was in sharp contrast to Tang Luolan's rage.

Seeing that her daughter lost her temper again, Ru Yihuan quickly winked at Tang Luolan, and Tang Luolan knelt down again with a pout.

Tang Zhilan grasped the crux of the matter and said, "'Yuanzai' should be the Marshal, right? This is the name of Luo Lan's favorite cricket. Could it be that you were playing with a cricket at that time?"

"The Tang family is so small, so what's so strange about knowing my cricket's name? She just made it up! So that she can put the blame on me!" Tang Luolan said, her tone was firm, and she was determined to bite Xiang Ming to death!

"It's unfair! Master! I really delivered it to the Fourth Young Lady. If I told a lie..."

Xiang Ming pointed two fingers at the sky and swore: "I will be struck by five thunderbolts and die a miserable death!"

Tang Henian said, "Both Luo Lan and you have sworn. You have no witnesses or evidence! Who should I trust? I naturally trust my own daughter! Come on! Take this sneaky, cunning, and lying slave away! Give him thirty strokes of the cane and take him out to be sold!"

"Wait! Dad!" Tang Yiran was very upset when he saw the gourd case judged by his father. He also understood that Tang Henian didn't care about the truth at all. He only cared about whether his daughter could be saved!

Tang Henian started to have a headache again. How could he forget about the ancestor while painting the gourd?

"Yilan, do you have any questions?" Tang Henian asked with a smile.

"If swearing can get rid of suspicion, then there is no need to investigate the case! Dad can't insist that he is innocent just because Sister Luo Lan swore!"

"Then what do you think we should do?" Tang Henian asked with a frown.

"Sister Zhilan, do you still have the envelope in which you wrote the secret letter? Can I take a look at it?" Tang Yilan asked.

"Yes! I'll have my servants pick it up right away. To show my importance, I've used a special envelope!"

The envelope was quickly taken out. Tang Yiran held the envelope up to the sunlight, looked at it, and sniffed it. He said, "This envelope is indeed a special envelope. There is a layer of gold powder on the surface of this envelope. There is nothing wrong with that..."

Tang Yiran sniffed the finger that had touched the envelope and said:

"But the most important thing is the glue used to stick the gold powder! It is a special glue with a faint fragrance. Once it sticks, it cannot be completely washed off within a month. It is acidic. If it melts in water and touches the paper in my hand, it will change color!"

As he spoke, Tang Yiran was inspired, and sure enough, a few PH test papers appeared in his hand.

Tang Yiran ordered: "Bring a few bowls of water!"

Soon the servants brought over a few bowls of water. Tang Yiran put the envelope into one of the bowls of water. A layer of gold powder quickly emerged, and some of the glue melted into the water. Tang Yiran took out a PH test paper and tested it. Sure enough, the test paper soon changed from yellow-green to orange! Tang Yiran picked it up and showed it to everyone.

Tang Yiran used another piece of PH test paper to test the water directly. Sure enough, the test paper did not change color for a long time. Tang Yiran showed the test paper around again.

"See? If Sister Luo Lan touched the envelope and put her hand into the water, I would use this to test it and it would be obvious who lied!"

"Luolan! Come up!" Tang Yiran said to Tang Luolan. In fact, she was also trying to stop him. The glue could be washed clean in just a week. She was trying to stop Tang Luolan's mentality!

Tang Luolan's psychological defenses had collapsed at this time. She cried dejectedly, "No need! I said it! I was having fun at the time, and I put the envelope aside after receiving it. Later... later I forgot about it!"

Hearing this, Tang Yiran let out a sigh of relief: As expected! I won the bet!

"I'm sorry! Sister Zhilan! I accept the punishment!" Tang Luolan said to Tang Zhilan.

"How can I hit you! I only have one request! Let Brother Qingsu take back his words of breaking off the engagement and accept me, Tang Zhilan, again!" Tang Zhilan said word by word.

Tang Luolan cried even harder when she heard this! She naturally couldn't agree!

Tang Zhilan started crying again!

Xiang Ronghua saw this and stopped pretending. He tore Ru Yihuan's hair and said, "Is this the good daughter you taught? Compensate me for your son-in-law! Compensate me!" Then the two of them started fighting.

Tang Yiran just found this farce funny. He bowed and said, "Father! Since my daughter's personal maid has proven innocent, I will leave first!"

After saying that, he left without looking back!

Tang Henian was so angry at Tang Luolan, the culprit, that he angrily accused her, "Fool! Foolish! Your sister will be upset if I don't punish you! Ground you for a year and deduct your salary for a year! The people around you are not helpful at all! All you do is fight those two crickets every day! Throw those broken crickets away! Sell all the people in the yard and replace them!"

"You two, stop fighting! Aren't you afraid that the younger generation will laugh at you?"

"Zhilan! I have punished your sister! Daddy will find a way to make Yu Qingsu change his mind, how about that?"

After much persuasion, the farce finally came to an end. Tang Henian felt like he had aged two years! So he went to Yiranxuan to see the child again.

As soon as they entered Yiranxuan, the two children giggled and stretched out their hands. After a while, Tang Henian seemed to forget all his worries, and his heart was melted by the two children.

"Dad, there's something I want to tell you but I don't know whether I should tell you or not." Tang Yiran saw that his father was so happy and didn't have the heart to cause him more trouble, so he spoke hesitantly.

"Tell me! What's the matter!" Tang Henian said while hugging Jingyan.

"Daddy! Today, the servant named Xiangming who came to my yard was disrespectful to me and said... he also said that I was not the master. My daughter felt a little sad when she heard that. Does Daddy think so too?"

Tang Henian pointed his finger at Jing Shu and said, "A servant? Just give him fifty lashes and sell him off! You don't need to discuss this with me, just ask the housekeeper to do it! I'll tell the housekeeper later and give you the power."

"My daughter understands!" said Tang Yiran.

Tang Henian continued to tease the two little guys, and everyone was laughing so hard that they couldn't stop.

Tang Yiran looked at the heartwarming scene in front of him and thought of Zong'er who stayed in Chenjia Village.

"I don't know how the child is doing."

The servant who offended Tang Yiran saw that Tang Yiran didn't mention him at all and thought that Tang Yiran was just talking, so he was happy. As a result, he was beaten with fifty sticks by the housekeeper and sold out that day. Although he regretted it, there was nothing he could do.
