In fact, she did not go that far. The reason why she did not let Fifth Elder Brother go out was that his Gu caused a huge wave in the Gong Family.
Now was a troubled time. If Fifth Elder Brother appeared less, at least there would be less chaos.
As for the rumors, she believed that the housekeeper had already ordered them to keep quiet.
But how could there be an impenetrable wall in the world?
She believed that it would not be long before someone made a big fuss about it.
"Miss."
The housekeeper who had been waiting at the door had a lot of bruises on his face. He must have tried his best to stop Fifth Elder Brother when he went crazy.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"No, it's not hard at all. I was born in the Gong Family and grew up in the Gong Family. I can do anything for the Gong Family. What's more, Miss is my savior. Even if I die, I will repay Miss's kindness. "
"Savior?"
The housekeeper raised his head slightly and looked at her. The gratitude in his eyes was not fake.
"Yes, I am not lucky enough to have only one son. It was Miss who asked someone to buy him back. Miss has given my family a new lease on life. "
She remembered that when she bought back the Gong Family who had become slaves, she also bought back many of the Gong Family's slaves who had been abducted by Gong Zhe.
They were sold because of Gong Zhe, so she asked someone to buy them back together.
Unexpectedly, the housekeeper's son was among them.
"That's because you are lucky. I just did you a favor at little cost. By the way, how is my great-grandfather now? "
Great-grandfather was not hurt by Fifth Elder Brother. He was just anxious and frightened, so he could not hold on and fainted.
The housekeeper immediately stopped being sentimental and reported neatly.
"Elder Ancestor is fine. But when you were dealing with Fifth Young Master, someone came over there."
"Over there?"
"Yes, the one outside."
"What are they doing here?"
Speaking of which, she did not like the external branch of the Gong Family very much.
Moreover, they were in cahoots with Lin Mengwu, which made her even more annoyed.
"They said they were here to visit Elder Ancestor, but I stopped them from going back."
"Well, you did a good job. Xiu, ask the housekeeper to pick a few capable people to sneak out from the back door and bring my teacher in. "
"Alright."
Xiu nodded with a serious look on her face.
The weasel paid a New Year's call to the chicken. Those people from the outer branch definitely didn't have any good intentions.
After the butler left with Xiu, she also went to her great-grandfather's courtyard.
Inside, many old servants were worriedly looking into the room, obviously worried about their great-grandfather's health.
After seeing her come in, those people also saluted.
Although they did not know her real identity, almost everyone in the Gong family knew that Mr. Su Mei was someone the master trusted.
Therefore, he treated her with more respect.
At this time, Lin Mengya did not feel that her prestige in the Gong family was getting stronger day by day.
Lifting the curtain, she caught a whiff of the bitter scent of medicine.
When he reached the inner chamber, he saw someone feeding his great-grandfather medicine.
However, Zeng Zu clenched his teeth tightly. This medicine couldn't be forcefully fed.
"Let me do it."
She spoke softly, and the person who was feeding the medicine looked up. When he saw that it was her, he let out a sigh of relief.
"Yes, Miss."
Unexpectedly, it was an acquaintance.
Lin Mengya took the medicine bowl from Gong Ping's hand. This medicine was just some ordinary tonic. For her great-grandfather, it was better than nothing.
She put two fingers on his pulse. After a while, she understood.
In fact, her great-grandfather was suffocated.
"Help Great-grandfather up."
Gong Ping immediately did as she said, with complete trust in her eyes.
She often saw such a look on her brothers' faces, so she had long been used to it.
She clenched her small fist, aimed at a certain part of her great-grandfather's body, and slightly hammered it.
With a "burp", her great-grandfather instantly sat up straight and gave a loud burp.
Then, his tightly closed eyes slowly opened.
"Great-grandfather, how do you feel now?"
She lowered her head and asked softly.
Zeng Zu had just woken up from a coma, and his eyes were full of confusion.
However, after seeing her, he gradually regained consciousness, but it was replaced by anxiety.
"Ya 'er, your fifth brother didn't mean to be disrespectful to me. The child was controlled by someone. He, he didn't want to hurt me! In fact, he rushed over several times, and his fist almost fell on me, but in the end, he missed. You know, your fifth brother's martial arts are superb, and an old man like me is no match for him … "
"Alright, great-grandfather, I know. Take good care of yourself, and I'll take care of my fifth brother. "
Her gentle promise was more effective than any consolation.
Zeng Zu suddenly calmed down, but in his eyes, there was still concern and worry for his children.
This was the reason why his five brothers were so respectful to each other because he had tried his best to love them.
"Alright, I know you'll be able to handle it properly. Ya 'er, how do you want me to thank you? "
"We're a family, don't say those words."
Zeng Zu looked at her with distress, but also with relief.
Fortunately, the Gong family didn't let Ya 'er down.
"Miss! Ancestor, you're awake! That's great! "
The housekeeper ran over hurriedly, but when he saw that Zeng Zu had woken up, he immediately became happy.
"What's wrong?"
"Miss, they sent someone here, saying that they want to visit Ancestor and show filial piety in front of his bed. I stopped them for a long time, but they refused to leave. It's really annoying! "
Oh, they came so fast.
Lin Mengya sneered coldly. Today was really a lively day. Those who should come and those who shouldn't come, all came in a flash.
This good show was really full of twists and turns. It was extremely exciting.
"I don't think they came to visit me, but to see if I'm dead or not? Humph, what a pity, I can't let them get what they want. "
Zeng Zu was also angry. For the sake of the same clan, he had been patient with them again and again.
However, he didn't expect that these people would climb all over him and have such wishful thinking!
"Don't worry, great-grandfather, I'll go with you to meet them."
She smiled mysteriously. Her great-grandfather and the others didn't know what kind of move she had arranged.
Those people wanted to take advantage of the chaos to get a share of the benefits, but they didn't know how strong they were.
The hall, which had been restored to tidiness, was now filled with many people.
Although the servants of the Gong family tried their best to cover it up, some traces were still revealed.
Lin Mengwu sat in this group of people, with her face always lowered.
Occasionally, she raised her head, and her eyes were full of worry and infinite melancholy, as if she was worried about something.
But some people didn't have such good acting skills. From time to time, some people looked out of the door, and the gloating expression on their faces could hardly be concealed.
Gong Tu cleared his throat, raised his eyelids, and glanced at the servant beside him.
"Ahem, didn't you say that you went to invite them? Why hasn't anyone come out after so long? "
This time, Gong Tu came prepared.
As an elder of the Gong family, he was suppressed by those brats.
Now that he finally had a chance to turn things around, how could he let it go?
The servant in charge of serving dared not neglect him, and had to answer politely.
"In reply to Master Tu, there were some guests in the house, and the young masters were busy with other things, so they couldn't receive them. Ancestor is old, and after talking with the guests for a while, he was a little sleepy. The butler has gone to invite them, and they should be up by now, right? "
Gong Tu snorted coldly, and glanced at the servant maliciously.
"What guests?"
"Well, I don't know …"
"Pah!" Gong Tu raised his hand and gave the servant a slap.
With a fierce look on his face, he stared coldly at the servant, who was stunned by the slap.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you gossip in front of me! Let me ask you, what's wrong with Ancestor? If you dare to lie again, I'll pull out your tongue! "
"Master Tu, I don't dare, I don't dare!"
The servant was frightened, and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy.
But Gong Tu didn't feel relieved, so he kicked the servant hard in the heart.
"What a wicked servant! In the future, the Gong family won't tolerate you! "
That old guy was about to die, but they still didn't know what was good for them.
Thinking that he would be in charge of such a big family business in the future, Gong Tu naturally felt a little smug.
Looking at the disobedient servant, he became even more tyrannical.
"Today, I'll let you know the rules of the Gong family!"
Gong Tu sneered and lifted his foot to stamp on the servant.
However, he did not expect that a furious voice would suddenly come from behind him.
"I really don't know when it's your turn to be in charge of the Gong family!"
Gong Tu trembled slightly, opened his eyes wide, and looked at the door in disbelief.
He saw the old guy, who was supposed to be lying on the bed, struggling at death's door, at this moment, appeared in front of him, unscathed. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes, hoping that he had seen wrong.
"Ancestor, your body …"
"Thanks to the blessing of my ancestor, I can live for a few more years. In case someone wants to usurp the power and take over the position when the master is not here! "
Following behind the Ancestor, Lin Mengya looked at Gong Tu's behavior coldly.
What an arrogant rat. Did he really think that there was no one in the Gong family?
But this was not the place for her to speak.
She walked quickly to the boy who was kicked by Gong Tu, helped him up, and helped him to clean his clothes.
"Does it still hurt?"
The boy was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and he looked weak and delicate. How could he be a match for Gong Tu?
"No, it doesn't hurt anymore …"
After looking at her timidly, Lin Mengya saw the red fingerprints on his face, and she was even more furious.
What a bullsh * t elder!
From today on, he, Gong Tu, would say goodbye to the power center of the Gong family completely!
"Follow me, I'll go back and apply some medicine for you later."
The boy had no one to rely on and was trembling with fear.
Now, with her words, he immediately became like an obedient little lamb, nodding gratefully.
She put the child behind her, and she would see who dared to bully him again!
Gong Tu knew that what he had done just now was probably seen by the old guy.
But he was only a little nervous, and then he did not care.
