It was said that one should look at the master before beating a dog. With Gong Zhe's courage and ability, if there was no one behind him, how could he dare to make trouble in the Gong family?
Gong Zhe was dragged away.
Everyone had different expressions on their faces, but it was undeniable that Gong Zhe's fate did make the Gong family feel very happy.
But after the happiness, they couldn't help feeling sad.
If the Gong family hadn't been in dire straits before, how could they have allowed such a despicable person to be so rampant?
Only by being strong could they never be insulted by people like Gong Zhe!
Lin Mengya knew this and felt a little relieved.
Only in this way could the Gong family prosper day by day.
An Jiarong and Gong Zhe were locked up separately. Lin Mengya didn't rush to interrogate them, but left them alone for a night.
The next morning, when she had breakfast unhurriedly and wandered around the yard with the baby, Li Xian rushed over.
"First Miss, the An family has sent someone here."
They had arrived earlier than she had expected.
Lin Mengya didn't take it seriously and just focused on playing with the baby in her arms.
"Just treat them well. Go back and tell them that I'm busy with other things and can't see them until later."
Ever since yesterday's incident, Li Xian treated Gong Ya with more respect.
After giving her order, he turned around and ran outside.
After Lin Mengya took the baby to wander around, she handed him over to Xiao Yixin, who came to teach.
After that, she returned to her room, changed her clothes, and walked slowly to the front hall this time.
"First Miss."
There were few people in the front hall, so when they saw her coming, they all stared at her curiously.
Yesterday's incident was still fresh in their minds. Today, the An family came to visit, and everyone knew that they were probably here to denounce them.
So they were also curious about how their First Miss would respond.
"Greetings, Miss Gong."
A polite male voice came from inside the hall.
Lin Mengya looked up. It turned out to be her "old acquaintance".
"Childe An, how have you been?"
An Ruchu smiled at her. His gentle and handsome face looked much thinner than before.
However, he was more and more energetic, like a sharp blade that had been sharpened.
"Thanks to Miss, everything is still passable."
It was unknown if he did it on purpose, but there was a hint of melancholy in his tone, as if he had experienced something.
But Lin Mengya had no time to guess. She had always been impatient with people she didn't care about.
"That's good. Who doesn't live a hard life? Nowadays, the ways of the world are not good. Every family is like this. "
She raised her eyebrows and took a sip of the tea beside her. Her tone was calm as if she was talking about family matters.
An Ruchu nodded with a bitter smile, but after hesitating for a while, she opened her mouth.
"Miss Gong, actually, I came here this time to discuss something with you."
She opened her eyes slightly and looked at him with a faint smile.
"What is it?"
"I know that my family was insensible yesterday and offended you. When they returned, the Patriarch had already reprimanded them. Today, the Patriarch wanted them to apologize to you. But I'm afraid that after you see them, you'll recall the bad memories of yesterday. Therefore, he sent me here to apologize to you. "
The corners of her mouth curled up, revealing a smile that could be considered kind.
"Oh? That matter, I have long since forgotten about it. Speaking of which, I have to thank the An Family for sending Gong Zhe back to me. The An Family has done me such a big favor, so it's reasonable for me to thank you. "
Her tone was indifferent, and it was obvious that she was not sincere.
As for the gratitude she mentioned …
An Ruchu didn't even dare to think about it. This Miss Gong sometimes acted like a lunatic.
"No, no, it's okay."
He waved his hand repeatedly, as if he was afraid that Lin Mengya wouldn't believe him. He shook his head like a rattle drum.
"Before coming here, the Patriarch repeatedly warned me to calm down, Miss Gong. You're already magnanimous that you don't care about it. How can we be insatiable? "
This sentence sounded like something a human would say.
But Lin Mengya didn't understand why the An Family dared to send An Jiarong and Gong Zhe here.
This kind of spirit of seeking death really made her feel admiration.
"Don't worry, I'm not that petty. If you're here to apologize today, you can go back and tell the Patriarch that I'm young, but I'm also a man of manners. If people respect me, I'll respect them tenfold. You can rest assured. "
Just as the eldest brother had said, the Gong Family and the An Family couldn't completely fall out with each other now.
Therefore, even if she wanted to take revenge, she couldn't do it now.
"Of course, Miss Gong has an extraordinary temperament, so she naturally won't argue with these people. But the Patriarch has a presumptuous request. "
He lowered his voice, and his eyes were secretly observing her.
"Since it's a presumptuous request, the Patriarch shouldn't deliberately make things difficult for others, right?"
She guessed what the Patriarch of the An Family wanted.
In his heart, flames of anger burned fiercely.
The An Family had repeatedly tested her bottom line. They were so shameless.
Did they really think that the Gong Family would be afraid of them and dare not to do anything to them?
If so, they would be very wrong.
The Gong Family would be afraid to take action, but she wouldn't!
"I also know that this is a little difficult for Miss Gong. But after all, aunt is a member of the An Family. Of course, we have no right to say how you deal with Gong Zhe, but the An Family can't be a laughing stock, right? "
An Ruchu said how the An Family had to compromise, but Lin Mengya sneered in her heart.
"It's really difficult for you. For the sake of face, you have to humble yourself and beg me. But An Ruchu, I might as well make it clear today. If it was in the past, your An family would still have some face here. But now, not a single one was left. An Jiarong said that she was the daughter-in-law of the Gong Family. I accepted it. But when I want to go back, is the An Family qualified? "
She was so angry that she smiled, but her smile was colder than the Sacred City.
An Ruchu wanted to say something, but after seeing the anger in her eyes, he could only swallow his words.
"I know that the An Family made a mistake this time. But Miss Gong, the An Family also has its difficulties. "
He looked at Lin Mengya hesitantly, and several times he wanted to continue to explain, but in the end, he could only sigh.
"In this case, I'll take my leave."
He already knew the attitude of the Gong Family. If he continued to stay, he would only humiliate himself.
Lin Mengya watched him walk out, but a little doubt arose in her heart.
An Ruchu did not look like the kind of person who would hesitate.
But he was quite scheming. Maybe he wanted to lead her to delve into the things that he deliberately hid.
To investigate or not to investigate became a rather difficult choice in front of her.
"Li Xian, help me do something."
She thought for a while and called Li Xian.
After giving him a few detailed instructions, she got up and went to the backyard.
She heard that Gong Zhe howled all night and only stopped in the morning when he had no strength.
The room where An Jiarong was locked up was directly opposite to Gong Zhe's room.
At this moment, her appearance caused the people inside to be at a loss, as if they were frightened wild rabbits.
"Aunt An, how did you sleep last night? No, I should call you Third Aunt now, right? "
The mockery in her eyes made An Jiarong tremble with fear.
If she hadn't lost her head yesterday and thought that she could take advantage of Gong Ya like this, she wouldn't have been locked up here now.
For the whole night, she listened to that person's wailing, as if she was in hell.
She only regretted that she did not have more hands to cover her ears.
So when Gong Ya came, she was already in a trance and was panicking.
"Gong Ya, I … I don't dare to do it again!"
She said hurriedly, admitting her mistake.
"If you let me go this time, I promise not to go against you again. Can you spare my life? "
People were always like this. At the moment of danger, they would realize that what they had done was just courting death.
Unfortunately, they had no way to stop her.
What else could she do? Of course, she would kill the chicken to warn the monkey, so that they would remember.
"What are you talking about, Third Aunt? We are a family, why do you have to do this? "
She stared at her with her big watery eyes and said with an innocent smile.
"No, it's all my fault! I was vain and abandoned my husband and son. I was also whimsical and tried again and again to get what doesn't belong to me. It's all my fault. I'll admit my mistake, I'll kowtow to you, and I'll apologize to you. Please be magnanimous and let me go! "
With that, he was about to kneel down.
However, Lin Mengya gently turned her body away and avoided his kowtow.
"Third Aunt, don't you want to kill Gong Ya by doing this? Get up, it's so cold on the ground. Don't let anything happen to your legs. "
Just one sentence from her made An Jiarong on the verge of breaking down.
"No! Please, Gong Ya, don't break my legs! I'll agree to whatever you say, please don't break my legs! "
An Jiarong was so scared that he could not speak coherently. Lin Mengya sneered in her heart.
He was merely a weakling on the inside. What made the An family so confident that this person could stir up a storm in the Gong family?
"Of course I won't. But since Third Aunt has married into the Gong Family, shouldn't she always think about the Gong Family?" Lin Mengya asked.
Her eyes fell on An Jiarong.
The latter trembled slightly for a moment, then nodded and asked carefully.
"What do you want to know, First Miss?"
"What I want to know is very simple. For example, who asked you and Gong Zhe to come back to the Gong family to make trouble."
Out of her expectation, An Jiarong did not say anything.
Instead, she hesitated for a long time with an ugly expression. When she looked a little impatient, the man opened his mouth.
