She had thought that after the fight between Gong Er and Gong Wu, she would be able to find out the reason behind their fight.
But she didn't expect that Gong Ping, who was guarding the door, caught up with her after sitting in the room for a while.
"First Miss, someone from the auction house told me that First Master and Third Master had a dispute with someone else. You'd better go and have a look."
Lin Mengya covered her head, which hurt a little.
It was probably because she was incompatible with this auction house. Otherwise, how could the Gong family's steady people become muddle-headed here?
"Got it. I'll be right there."
She needed someone to guard the house. She told Gong Ping to look after the house when Gong Si came back.
She was very ostentatious in the morning, so she couldn't be too shabby in the afternoon.
After washing up with Shang 'er, she changed into a dark purple dress.
The dress was not simple. The collar and cuffs were decorated with white plum patterns made of extremely light white jade shells.
Her ink-like hair was combed into a meticulous high bun, and there were gold hairpins and jade ornaments in her hair.
The exquisite makeup on her face added a lot to her aura. Compared to light and crisp colors, the darker the color, the more seductive she was.
Even though that color would look tacky on others, when it was worn by her, it was only beautiful and not tacky.
Gong Er and Gong Wu stopped when they heard the news. Especially when they saw their little sister's cold face, the two men couldn't help being as timid as two quails.
"Stop fighting?"
She raised her eyebrows and asked coldly.
The two brothers took a deep breath, looked at her timidly, and finally nodded in unison.
"Since you don't want to fight, come with me to see how Eldest Brother and Third Brother are doing."
After that, she walked away as if nothing had happened.
Gong Er and Gong Wu looked at each other. They knew they were wrong and were ready to be ridiculed by their little sister.
But now …
They didn't have time to think about it. The three of them went to Jincang Harbor in a small sedan chair.
They hurried, and by the time they arrived outside the auction house, the curtain of night had already fallen.
The auction house at night was a paradise for revelers.
Both men and women could find their own happiness here.
However, many of their happiness was built on the pain of others.
The three small palanquins, which only the VIPs of the auction house could ride, were not disturbed at all along the way.
As soon as he arrived at the door, a steward came to greet him.
However, when he saw the people from the Gong Family, he frowned.
"Second Young Master, Third Young Master."
In the end, the steward knew how to read people's expressions. Moreover, with the instructions from above, at least on the surface, he did not dare to be negligent.
Smiling, he went up to greet them as if everything was normal.
Second Master Gong had never liked people who fawned on him, so he only replied with a 'En'.
The steward could also see the other party's attitude, but he didn't take it to heart. He cupped his fists, turned around, and led them up.
The auction house at night was even livelier than during the day.
Especially the men who had been repressed for the whole day, their fiery gazes were looking for their prey.
Lin Mengya, who was walking at the back, knew that she was very eye-catching.
Firstly, it was because of her identity. Secondly, her outfit today really gave people a sense of distance.
Therefore, no matter how dirty those gazes were, when it came to her, they had to restrain themselves.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the box of the Gong Family.
The atmosphere inside was very low. Third Elder Brother and Eldest Brother were sitting inside, whispering something.
"What's wrong?"
Second Master Gong and Fifth Master Gong did not dare to speak, so they could only entrust this important task to Lin Mengya.
She asked calmly while looking at the two cowards in disdain.
"That damned Gong Zhe! I, Gong Bin, swear that I will tear him into pieces in my lifetime and let him die a horrible death! "
Gong Bin was really angry. With a pair of red eyes, he clenched his fists and hit the table hard.
Lin Mengya shifted her gaze to Gong San. The latter sighed, and his face was full of suppressed anger.
"You know the horse carriage that our master was in, right? Gong Zhe, that shameless man, stole it. Moreover, just now, he came in that horse carriage. Eldest Brother really couldn't stand it and argued with him. Who knew that guy was so shameless that he said he would directly auction the horse carriage! "
Now, she understood the reason why Gong Bin and Gong San were angry.
To be honest, this horse carriage was not only the symbol of the master of the Gong Family, but to a certain extent, it was equivalent to the memorial tablets of the Gong Family's ancestors.
No matter how bad a person was, he would not sell his ancestors' memorial tablets, because it was not only unfilial, but also a great insult to the ancestors.
Was this Gong Zhe trying to deceive and destroy the ancestors?
When Gong Er and Gong Wu heard this, they wanted to turn around and leave without saying anything.
But they stopped when Lin Mengya said something.
"If you go now, they will laugh at you even more!"
"Then what should we do? Are we just going to watch Gong Zhe sell our horse carriage? "
Although Gong Er had a fiery temper, he was much steadier than Gong Wu.
Seeing his younger brother shouting at his little sister in a rough voice, he knew that this guy must be venting his anger on his little sister.
He couldn't help but reach out his hand to slap the back of his head.
The latter widened his eyes with a stubborn look on his face. However, the Gong Family's brothers could feel the grievance in his eyes.
"We must get this horse carriage back. But we can't bid for it. How dare we buy it back? If this gets out, the Gong Family will not be able to face the world. Gong Zhe has hidden it for so long, and now he suddenly took it out. I'm afraid he is trying to provoke us. Ha, the other aristocratic families may not be clean. In this case, let's play with them! "
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and her eyes shone with a brilliant light.
Lin Mengya's mind was as clear as a mirror, and her mind worked faster than anyone else.
If Gong Zhe auctioned the horse carriage, the Rong Family and the Xu Family would not be able to escape.
And the other aristocratic families must have received the news in advance. Otherwise, how could Gong Bin and Gong San, who were so steady, suddenly lose control?
Playing with her? Then she would show these country bumpkins what it meant to be rich and capricious!
On the first day of the auction, no one from the Gong Family bid.
This was not rare among the other aristocratic families, but because of their past image, many people regarded this behavior as a sign of weakness.
Even if they sat among the aristocratic families, the Gong Family had declined.
Moreover, the horse carriage that the master of the Gong Family rode in was going to be sold, so they must be an arrow at the end of its flight.
Who would have thought that the Gong Family would return to everyone's sight the next day?
On the second day of the auction, slaves not only had to be strong, but also had to have something extraordinary.
Moreover, there would also be some raw gemstones of jewelry being auctioned.
In short, this auction was a treasure hunting ground.
Whether it was a person or an object, it might be worth thousands of gold after being bought, as if it was a treasure.
But it might also be a mediocre person or a stubborn stone after being bought back.
This auction not only tested the buyer's financial resources, but also tested the buyer's judgment.
The few aristocratic families that had come would also start bidding from this round.
Today, the five sons of the Gong Family and an extremely beautiful young lady of the Gong Family, just like the other aristocratic families, all came to the auction.
After what happened yesterday, there were more and more people who were not optimistic about the Gong Family. Even the steward who led the way looked a little arrogant.
There was no other way. This was the way it was.
Those who had money and power were the masters.
The strange thing was that the Gong Family did not start a dispute with them. They did not seem to care about the various gazes directed at them.
However, before entering the private room, they met a group of "acquaintances".
"I was wondering who it was. It's you guys. How is it? You're not used to this place, are you? "
Lin Mengya recognized this person immediately. She remembered clearly how he was chased out of the old house of the Gong Family by her.
Yu Kui's face was gloomy, and his eyes shone with a vicious light.
It was not easy for him to climb to where he was today, but he did not expect to be chased out by a little girl.
Therefore, he was ridiculed by many people.
Especially yesterday, Rong Luyi came in person and asked him to vacate the private room for the Gong Family.
The Gong Family, the Gong Family, should have belonged to him.
Gong Wu was in a bad mood. He was about to rush up, but was stopped by Lin Mengya.
"Brother Wu, it's just a dog. Why are you angry?"
She had a beautiful face, and her clothes were extremely elegant and noble.
However, the words that came out of her cherry lips made Yu Kui's old face almost fall off.
However, when he thought about how the insufferably arrogant Gong Family would soon become the laughingstock of everyone, Yu Kui narrowed his eyes. The thin flesh hanging on his cheeks revealed extremely vicious wrinkles.
"What a sharp-tongued girl. I heard that the carriage of the Gong Family could only be used by the head of the family. I don't know if the soul of the former head of the family is still there now. If I have the chance, I really want to see it with my own eyes. "
Yu Kui's words were harsh and vicious. Everyone knew that even the emperor did not dare to force the head of the Gong Family in the past.
Now, even a villain like Yu Kui could covet the carriage she was in. It was almost an insult to the whole Gong Family.
But Lin Mengya was not angry. Her eyes fell on Yu Kui, and she did not hide her disdain.
"I'm afraid that the head of the Yu Family is not so lucky. If you go up there, you will definitely be killed. At that time, even if you sell the Yu Family, you may not be able to afford it. Oh, by the way, I forgot that the Yu Family is used to selling, and you like to take the initiative to sell. Head of the Yu Family, how is the market now? "
Lin Mengya's mouth could even make a dead person jump in anger.
Yu Kui insulted the ancestors of the Gong Family, so she said that Yu Kui's daughter was sold.
Indeed, Yu Mingzhu looked famous now, but whether it was with the Gong Family in the past or with other families now, it was Yu Mingzhu who took the initiative to sell herself.
