"Gong Ya, how dare you —!"
Lin Mengya snorted and looked at the shouting Yu Kui with disdain.
"Why wouldn't I dare? Your Yu Family dares to sell, but you dare not let others talk about it? Haha, our Gong Family has indeed been down for a period of time, but our daughters have never been sent to us since ancient times. They are not as well-educated as your Yu Family! Why don't we hold an audition for your family to see all the good men in the world? Oh, I didn't know that you, Master Yu, have the potential to be a pimp! "
"Nonsense!"
Master Yu's face turned green, and his lips began to tremble.
Unfortunately, Lin Mengya became bolder and bolder, and her eyes and movements followed.
She put one hand on her waist and took out a silk handkerchief, covering her mouth and laughing.
"I'm talking nonsense. You can ask around. Everyone in Dawei Country knows that your daughter was rejected by our Gong Family. Now you are still playing the game of waiting for a good price. I say, with your Yu Family's conduct, why don't you come here to sell? I will definitely support you. Do you know how much the first sale in the brothel is worth? I will give you double! "
She stretched out two fingers and was so arrogant that she deserved a beating.
On the other side, Yu Kui was obviously showing signs of rolling his eyes. He covered his chest with his hands and fainted with anger.
In the end, it was Gong Bin, who couldn't bear to watch or listen anymore, who ended this one-sided battle.
Although Yu Kui was quite shrewd, his cursing vocabulary was limited to just a few words.
After listening to it for a long time, it didn't hurt or itch anymore, unlike his little sister who didn't care about meat or vegetables and even started to interact with the onlookers.
Therefore, Gong Bin, who was afraid that Yu Kui would really die on the spot, had to give a wink to the second son of the Gong Family.
The second son immediately understood. He carried his little sister's slender waist and went into the box without saying anything.
There was a noise outside.
"Master! Master, hold on, Master! "
Well, it seemed that Master Yu was really angry.
Turning around and looking at their little sister, the five sons of the Gong Family secretly swore that in the future, no one could provoke her. They must remember this!
"How was it? Was I handsome just now?"
Lin Mengya winked at her brothers proudly, but none of them dared to answer her.
But if they all turned their eyes away, it would put their little sister in an awkward position.
In the end, it was Lao Si, who had a good temper and was on good terms with her, who accepted the order in the face of danger and walked up to her with a dry smile.
"Little sister, Fourth Brother felt that you were very brave just now. But, as a girl, shouldn't you be a little more careful? "
Gong Si swore that his tone was extremely tactful. He absolutely did not reveal the slightest bit of criticism towards his little sister.
However, the other party coldly glanced at him and snorted.
"You're just being straightforward. Why do you care so much?"
Unbeknownst to him, when she turned around, a smile of success flashed across her eyes.
As the next head of the Gong family, she would become famous sooner or later.
However, in order to reduce trouble for herself, she had decided to make herself notorious from the very beginning.
It's not easy to be a good person, but is it hard to be a bad person?
The five sons of the Gong family did not know that their little sister actually had such a creepy idea in her mind.
However, even if they knew, what could they do?
Apart from helping the evildoer, it was estimated that these five brothers would not have any good ideas.
Soon, the voice of the steward in charge of the auction came from outside.
Because several big families would participate in today's auction, the auction house would also pay attention to it.
Although the small and medium-sized buyers knew that the chances of them getting a bargain today were very small, they could still meet people from several big families, so they did not come in vain this time.
Soon, the silk curtains and bead curtains of the boxes were opened by the servants in each box. This was the first time for the families to meet.
Soon, Lin Mengya found that many people were looking at her.
There were curiosity, disgust, and disdain in those eyes.
But what kind of person was Miss Lin? Not only was she not afraid at all, she even leaned back in her chair in an extremely lazy posture.
She didn't know that with her beauty, this kind of posture was very seductive.
After a while, those eyes were quietly stared at her.
The five sons of the Gong family had a tacit understanding. They stared at each other.
Under the protection of their strong murderous eyes, those people more or less restrained themselves.
However, there were quite a number of people who began to secretly plot against her.
"I'm Lu Feng. On behalf of my boss, thank you for your support!"
The steward in charge of the auction was called Lu Feng. He was of medium build and did not look outstanding.
However, he looked very kind. When he smiled, his eyes were slightly squinted, making people unconsciously get close to him.
But this person was extremely shrewd and was best at reading the expressions of the guests.
As long as he went out, there was no guest that he could not handle.
In previous years, he would not go out in person until the last round. It seemed that the Rong family attached great importance to this time.
As usual, Lu Feng cupped his hands and bowed to the people outside.
He said some auspicious words to make everyone happy. After what he did, the atmosphere became a lot more lively.
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes and looked at the register in her hand.
There were many things to be auctioned today, but she could not find anything that caught her eye.
Outside the door, she heard someone talking. Not long after, Gong Yang, who was in charge of guarding the door, entered.
"Third young master."
Gong Yang was Gong San's personal servant. He was around twenty-three or twenty-four years old. He was quick-witted, and his words and actions were rather smooth.
Now that he entered, he held a lacquered wooden tray with an exquisite embroidered box on it.
"What's the matter?"
"The first young master of the Ma family of Qingyang has given our first young lady a gift."
The Ma family of Qingyang? She had some impression of this Ma family.
As one of the ten great clans as well, the Ma family's influence had always been stable in the middle.
The Ma family was a scholarly clan, but the first young master of this generation was an idle person who liked to fool around.
Almost as soon as Gong Yang entered, someone from the auction house reported that someone had bought the west sea pearls on the list.
Lin Mengya gestured for Gong Yang to open the embroidered box. Sure enough, a box of round, plump pearls with a milky-white luster appeared before her eyes.
Oh, was he trying to woo her?
The corner of Lin Mengya's lips twitched. She was not interested.
"Second elder brother, I need to trouble you with something."
Second Elder Gong listened carefully. Before long, Gong Yang came out with the embroidered box.
"How is it? Your young lady is not willing to accept it? "
The servant of the Ma family was surprised to see the embroidered box come out in its original state.
He thought to himself that the Gong family was only a declining clan, yet they were putting on airs as the young lady.
He showed some displeasure on his face.
"This is a gift from our young lady to you, Young Master Ma."
Gong Yang lowered his eyes and continued to act like he was doing his job.
The servant immediately beamed. He knew that no one could escape from his young master's attentiveness.
"Alright, I'll send it back immediately!"
The servant was in a good mood. He returned to the box of the Ma family as if he was walking on wind.
As soon as he entered the box, a young man who was surrounded by beauties jumped up.
"How is it? How is it? Did the young lady of the Gong family accept it? "
"That's natural. This little one congratulates Young Master in advance for being able to hug the beauty! This is a gift from the young lady of the Gong family to you. "
The servant immediately handed the embroidered box to his young master.
Ma Beichen picked it up as if he was afraid that someone would take it away from him.
He opened the box with a clap.
Unexpectedly, there was a box of white powder inside.
"What, what is this?"
There was an elegant young man sitting in Ma Beichen's room.
The man looked like a pink peach blossom and was extremely likable.
After seeing the thing in Ma Beichen's hand, he raised his eyebrows slightly as if he had understood it.
"Isn't there a note? Young Master Ma, why don't you take a look? "
Ma Beichen only saw it after he reminded him.
He immediately picked it up and opened it. When he saw a line of words on it, he muttered.
"Pearl powder can brighten the eyes and make skin beautiful. What does this mean? Could it be that she is worried about my health? "
"Pfft!" The Young Master laughed out loud.
"Xue Hua, what are you laughing at? Don't tell me you're jealous because you see a beauty in love with me? That's not right. I saw the beauty first. You can't snatch her from me! "
Xue Hua looked at him tightly guarding the box containing the pearl powder, but he was laughing at the stupidity of this stupid horse in his heart.
Young Master Ma sent a box of pearls, but the girl didn't appreciate it at all. She even made the pearls and gave them back to him.
In addition, the sentence on the note was clearly telling him to keep his eyes open in the future. She didn't like his face.
Moreover, in such a short time, the pearl powder was probably not ground, but smashed by someone.
Alas, Ma Beichen, he claimed to be a general who always wins in love, but now he didn't understand the girl's mind at all.
Ignoring Ma Beichen, who was still nagging him not to make a move, Xue Hua's eyes fell on the stand not far away.
The purple color was particularly conspicuous. Judging from the woman's posture and the way she scolded Yu Kui just now, this woman was very likely to be an empty shell apart from her appearance.
As for this return gift, it was probably the idea of the Gong family.
But …
His eyes fell vaguely on a place where the gauze curtain was not opened.
Why would that person leave everything behind just to come here?
Could it be that 'he' was also interested in the Gong family?
He withdrew his eyes calmly. Of course, he remembered what 'he' had said to him.
However, he was getting more and more curious now.
Why on earth did 'he' come here?
After getting rid of the pursuer who was not very sincere and only wanted to be with her, Lin Mengya's mood was neither good nor bad.
'How should I put it …' She changed her posture and was almost sitting upright.
