Lin Mengya looked at her Fifth Elder Brother, who was smiling foolishly, and took out a jade bracelet without batting an eyelid.
The jade bracelet was emerald green, translucent and without a single blemish.
Lin Mengya did not know how it looked like in Wei State, but it was definitely a priceless treasure in Dajin and the other four countries.
However, the design was old-fashioned and did not look like new jade.
"Fifth Elder Brother, this bracelet is so beautiful. Who prepared it for me?"
Gong Yu was delighted to see that she liked it.
He touched his head and asked in embarrassment.
"This was left by your Fourth Elder Brother's mother. We don't have extra money, so we could only find these for you. Don't worry, little sister. We won't allow anyone to bully you while you're here! "
Gong Yu patted his chest and looked as if he did not need to worry about anything.
Lin Mengya clearly saw that under his decent clothes, his underwear had been rolled up into a rough edge.
She felt as if something had hit her heart.
The smile on her face became more sincere.
"My Fifth Elder Brother is wise and powerful, so no one dares to bully me. Did Fifth Brother prepare something for me here as well? "
The young man smiled embarrassedly.
He rubbed his hands guiltily and said in a low voice.
"My … my mother was born in a humble family, so she did not leave anything good for me. But when my father was still alive, he gave me a few jadeite grasshoppers. I, I asked someone to make them into headwear for you. I don't know if you like it. "
After saying that, he slowly took out a small box from his bosom.
It was an ordinary wooden box with only a thin layer of paint on the outside.
Lin Mengya immediately took it and opened the box.
"It's so beautiful. Can I wear it now?"
Gong Yu looked up at her in surprise.
"You, you really like it? Of course, I prepared it for a long time. I was afraid that you wouldn't like it! "
Lin Mengya took the box and sat in front of the bronze mirror in the room. Looking at the mirror, she solemnly put the two adorable hairpins on her hair.
"You look good in anything, little sister. I will buy you better things in the future. I won't let you suffer any grievances!"
Gong Yu said excitedly, but Lin Mengya's heart was filled with something that could not be dispelled.
In fact, when she was in the carriage just now, she still had some doubts in her heart. Was this a test by the Gong family to see if she was a greedy person?
But now, she felt extremely moved.
Everything could be faked, but Gong Yu's sibling love for her was more real than real gold.
Although they were on different sides of the world and had never met each other before, some feelings could not be severed.
That was how she was. Regardless of whether it was familial love or other emotions, it would be fine if she didn't make a move, but once she did, she would definitely do it with all her might.
Since the Gong family had treated her so well, she would do her best to help them.
Everything in the world could be cheated, but not true love.
"Fifth Young Master, Old Ancestor invites you to bring Young Miss over."
An aged voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Gong Yu immediately sobered up from the joy. She hurriedly grabbed Lin Mengya's wrist and led her outside.
"Let's go! Great-grandfather must be waiting anxiously! "
"Slow down, let me tidy up my things."
After tidying up her appearance in front of the mirror, Lin Mengya followed Gong Yu into the depths of the house.
Just as they entered the door of a side courtyard, they heard someone speaking loudly inside.
"Old Ancestor, I really don't know what you're thinking. How can a bastard who has wandered outside for so many years be worthy of being treasured like a pearl and jade by you? You'd better hand over the official seal of the Master before you go senile, lest we shed all pretenses of cordiality, and you'll be embarrassed! "
The unceremonious and mean voice should belong to a woman.
Gong Yu clenched his fists and was about to rush in aggressively, but was held back by Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya shook her head at Gong Yu. She knew that this person was probably coming for her.
Instead of being so rash, she might as well listen to what they had up their sleeves.
"You're no longer a member of the Gong family. What are you doing here?"
An angry shout came. Lin Mengya could hear the suppressed anger in the voice. It should be Third Brother of the Gong family.
"Third Brother Gong, who do you think you are? Our Gong family has always been headed by a woman. If you're sensible, we might give you some errands after our lady takes over the family. Otherwise, hmph, get out of here and be a beggar! "
The voice became more and more arrogant, as if the huge Gong family was already in her hands.
Lin Mengya was also a little angry. The face of a villain who was intoxicated by success must be disgusting.
"You! Cough, cough, cough … "
The old voice inside was accompanied by a series of heart-wrenching coughs. It seemed that he was very angry.
"Oh, Old Ancestor, you have to take it easy. If you die, it will be difficult to get the official seal of the Master. "
What he said was simply inhumane!
Lin Mengya was so angry that she naturally let go of her hand that was holding Gong Yu.
The young man rushed in hastily, and in an instant, there was a great commotion inside.
"Gong Yu! You have no manners. Today, I'll ask someone to teach you a lesson! Two of you, break his legs for me! "
Inside the room, a burly woman in red and green had her hands on her waist, pointing at Gong Yu and scolding him in exasperation.
Just a moment ago, that lad had barged in without any reason and almost knocked her to pieces.
The woman must have finally found an opportunity. She shouted at her subordinates and glared at Gong Yu fiercely.
The evil slaves were also approaching Gong Yu with a cold smile on their faces.
Gong Yu's eyes were wide open, and he clenched his fists so hard that they made cracking sounds. However, he did not dare to move.
The evil slaves knew that he was afraid. Just as they were about to teach Gong Yu a lesson, an arrogant shout came from outside.
"Fifth Brother, remove their hands and feet for me. I'll be the one in charge today! "
Gong Yu's eyes lit up. He must have been suppressing his anger for a long time, and now he finally had a chance to vent it.
In just a few moves, the evil slaves were all knocked to the ground.
"You … Gong Yu, are you rebelling?"
The woman seemed to be in a daze. She pointed her scarlet nails at Gong Yu and did not notice that someone had come in from behind her.
"Fifth Brother, did you not understand what I said?"
The woman's face was expressionless, as if she did not care about the chaos in front of her at all.
She slowly walked up to the servant closest to her, lifted her small foot, which was wearing a cloth shoe, and stomped hard on him.
Crack! The man's five knuckles were completely broken by her stomp.
The servant let out a cry. Everyone in the room was startled. No one would have thought that a girl who looked so delicate could be so powerful.
"Since you dare to come here, you'll have to pay the price. Today, I'll only take one of your hands and one of your legs as interest. If you dare to come here and make noise again, I'll take your lives the next time. "
The young girl stood at the door. Although there was no wind or rain on her beautiful face, it was filled with a chill that made people's hearts tremble.
"Who … Who are you?"
A stout middle-aged woman with a face so thick that the powder on her face could be shaken off looked at her in horror.
"Slap her in the face. You don't know your place and offend your superiors. You deserve to be beaten to death. "
The woman did not answer her question. She just glanced at her and walked up to the old ancestor of the Gong family.
"Greetings, great-grandfather. I'm the acting head of the family. Please don't blame me."
She bowed slightly. Although she was dressed in plain clothes, she had an extraordinary bearing.
She was afraid that even the girls from the aristocratic families who had been brought up in their families could not compare to her.
"Good, good! Gong Qianfeng greets the head of the family. Since you've returned, I'll be in charge of everything in the Gong family. We'll definitely follow your orders. "
Gong Qianfeng, who was over 70 years old, stood up with the help of Gong Bin and wanted to bow to Lin Mengya.
However, he was stopped by the latter.
"Great-grandfather, please take a seat."
She looked at the gratified face of Gong Qianfeng and could not help tearing up.
Indeed, she had no feelings for the Gong family.
But when she saw an old man guarding the family for half a century, she could not help but be moved.
"What head of the family! He's just a little bastard who came out of nowhere. Gong Qianfeng, do you think you can fool us with your little tricks? "
The woman scolded again, as if she was sure that they would not dare to do anything to her.
Lin Mengya turned around and narrowed her eyes.
"Guards!"
The five sons of the Gong family stood behind her firmly.
"Cut off her tongue and throw her out of the door, along with these useless people. From today onwards, whoever dares to bark in the Gong family will be exterminated! "
A serious illness must be treated with strong medicine.
Her return would definitely affect the interests of many people.
Therefore, the first move must be decisive! Only then could those people be deterred and not dare to act rashly.
The five sons of the Gong family had had enough of these greedy people. But when the previous head of the family was not around, if they fought back, they would definitely be criticized. This would give those people an opportunity to take advantage of. Now that the head of the family was so domineering, they naturally would not tolerate it anymore.
The five sons went into action together. In a short while, they broke an arm and a leg of those people and threw them out of the door.
"You can't do this! My girl will not let you off … Oh … "
The most shrill cry of pain resounded through the whole Gong family.
Lin Mengya stood in front of Gong Qianfeng calmly and looked at the five sons of the Gong family outside. She cut off the tongue of the woman.
"Head of the family, isn't it a little too much to do this?"
After all, Gong Qianfeng was old. His previous arrogance had been worn away by the compromises he had made over the years.
"Great-grandfather, do you think Mengya is too cruel?"
Gong Qianfeng did think so, but he could not bear to say it directly, so he could only nod helplessly.
