She was excited to see Mrs. Lian and Sister Hui, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
But soon, she calmed herself down.
Even though Aunt Lian and Sister Hui were reliable, she couldn't take the risk.
The tea in the teacup gradually cooled down, but no one came.
She wondered if something was bothering her. Just when she was about to get up and ask, she heard footsteps coming from outside.
"Mrs. Lian, Miss Yue, she's inside."
Soon, a few figures came in through the door.
Lin Mengya suppressed the excitement in her heart and greeted them with a sweet smile.
"Su Mei greets Mrs. Lian and Miss Yue."
Mrs. Lian and Shangguan Hui were slightly surprised to see the girl in front of them.
Before they came, they had heard about this girl who caused a stir in Ye City.
They had thought that she would be difficult to get along with because of her reckless and flamboyant character.
Madam Lian was worried that this young lady might be another ungrateful wretch, so she dawdled for so long just to see what kind of person this young lady was.
She liked Gong Ya like her own daughter, so she naturally had a lot of plans.
But when she saw this girl, she felt that she was very pleasing to the eye.
Looking at this girl, her eyes were gentle, her figure was thin, and her voice was gentle. She didn't look like a vixen at all.
At that moment, the doubts in her heart were somewhat relieved.
"You're welcome. I received a letter from Ya 'er. She said that you're her adopted sister?"
Of course, the letter was sent by her. She didn't say much, but simply introduced the current situation of the Gong family and told them to be careful on the road.
She lowered her head and spoke very softly.
"Yes."
Mrs. Lian was even more satisfied with her response.
Although Madam Lian had long suspected that all these things might have been caused by those troublemakers from the Gong Family.
But before seeing this girl, she still had some doubts.
After seeing her, she was a little relieved.
After exchanging a look with Lian Yue, the latter nodded at her.
"Okay, then we're a family from now on."
Mrs. Lian's tone became much warmer.
It was then that Lin Mengya realized that Aunt Lian had been testing her.
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she felt a faint warmth in her heart.
The feeling of being favored was really good.
The three of them sat down, and Aunt Lian called for fresh tea to be served.
This tea was different from the previous ones. It actually had a refreshing sweet and sour fruit taste.
Carefully tasting it, there were actually a few kinds of fruits in it.
"This is the new tea that Yue'er made for me. Does it suit your taste?"
Madam Lian asked with a smile. Lin Mengya immediately nodded and took another sip.
"Miss Yue is indeed dexterous. The Patriarch will definitely like this tea. Master doesn't like to drink bitter tea. "
Madam Lian's eyes flashed. As expected, he was close to Ya 'er.
Otherwise, how could he have known that she didn't like bitter tea?
Lin Mengya lowered her head and drank her tea, hiding the smile on her face.
This time, even his aunt would not suspect him anymore, right?
"We've been eating and sleeping in the open for the entire journey. I wonder if Madam is used to this place?"
Actually, she had only come to see if Aunt Lian and Sister Hui needed any help.
Madam Lian took it as Gong Ya's kind intentions and said with a smile.
"Everything is fine here. Tell Ya 'er not to worry. But, where did this lass run off to? Why didn't she send me a letter after so long? "
"Oh, in fact, the Patriarch has other matters to attend to, so it's not convenient for him to contact us. However, he has a presumptuous request, and he hopes that Madam can agree to it. "
She made up her mind vaguely.
Fortunately, Aunt Lian was a sensible person and knew that Gong Ya was different from the other housewives, so she did not ask any more questions.
She was just curious about what Ya 'er would ask of her.
"Tell me about it."
"It's like this. As you can see, there are many distinguished guests in Feiye for the opening ceremony on the eighth of August. You know the Gong Family. The male guests are fine. Although the Elder Ancestor is sick, the Fourth Young Master is there to support him. But the female guests are different. I'm not a member of the Gong Family and have no qualifications. I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the situation under control. "
She said it with sincerity, but if Baisu and the others heard it, they would definitely roll their eyes and despise her.
This person was obviously trying to be lazy.
But when Madam Lian heard it, she felt even more sorry for Gong Ya.
She frowned and struggled in her heart.
"This is not appropriate. After all, I'm a member of the Lian Family. If I go to your family, I'm afraid that it's not right, and I might even steal the host's place. "
"No!" Lin Mengya immediately explained, "Everyone knows the relationship between Madam Lian and the Patriarch of the Lian Family. Since she calls you Auntie, and our families are so close, she can't help but think. Moreover, who else in the entire Wei State has such a reputation like you? "
After praising her, she began to act pitiful.
She lowered her eyes and pretended to be a pitiful little girl who had been wronged.
"The Gong Family does have women of high seniority. But they don't care about the Patriarch and me. A while ago, when I was framed by them, they even wanted to sell me to a brothel … "
She even choked with sobs when she said the last sentence.
Aunt Lian immediately frowned. Apart from anger, there was also a hint of heartache in her eyes.
"These people are filthy to the extreme! You're right. Now that there are so many people, the backyard should be more guarded, in case some shameless people sneak in. Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter. With me around, there won't be any mistakes. "
"Really? Madam, you've agreed? "
She immediately raised her head and asked in surprise.
Madam Lian nodded even more firmly. But Lin Mengya was afraid that she would change her mind, so she wiped her face and took out the object that she had been keeping in her arms.
It was a set of 16 green jade tokens, each the size of a palm, with the same pattern. On the lifelike green plum pattern, there was a protruding ancient Chinese character "Gong".
"The Patriarch asked me to give these to you. Each of these 16 jade tokens can be divided into two. With this jade token, you can use all the people in the Gong Family. Apart from the small storehouses, you can use everything in the big storehouse. "
Madam Lian was shocked.
She had thought that she was just going to supervise the servants and keep a tight watch on the family.
Unexpectedly, Gong Ya trusted her so much.
Madam Lian sighed, but there was a smile on her face.
She didn't love this child wrongly, and this child also treated her sincerely.
Madam Lian carefully received the jade tokens and handed them to Lian Yue for safekeeping.
She turned to look at Su Mei and felt that this child didn't hide anything. She liked her very much.
The three of them talked for a while, and then Lin Mengya got up and left.
However, Lian Yue offered to send her off.
They walked slowly, and Lin Mengya couldn't help but ask when she saw Sister Hui who wanted to say something.
"Miss Yue, do you have something to say?"
Shangguan Hui looked at her, hesitated for a while, and then said softly.
"Please pass a message to Ya 'er. Tell her that I remember what happened in the past! There are some things I want to tell her in person! "
There was some urgency in Sister Hui's tone.
Lin Mengya knew that Sister Hui must have remembered something important.
After looking around, she lowered her voice and said.
"To tell you the truth, the Patriarch really can't leave now. However, if Miss has anything to say, you can write to me. I promise, this letter will never be seen by a third person except the Patriarch. "
When Shangguan Hui heard this, she bit her lips, and there was still some hesitation in her eyes.
However, at this time, the two of them had already walked to the door. She couldn't delay for too long, so she could only take the initiative to leave.
"Okay, I will trouble you then."
Sister Hui quickly whispered in her ear, and then said some polite words.
After the two people looked at each other with a tacit understanding, Lin Mengya left.
In the end, what did Sister Hui remember?
Lin Mengya was delayed by Aunt Lian. When she arrived at the courtyard where Xiao Wangfu temporarily lived, it was just in time for lunch.
This time, Xiao Wangfei came with her people. But in addition to Pang 'er, Infanta Fanghua, there were a few more daughters.
But among them, there was also her old acquaintance, Qi Ranxin, who had a good relationship with Yu Mingzhu.
She heard that in the past six months, Qi Ranxin relied on Xiao Wangye's favor and was very restless.
She even dared not to put Xiao Wangfei, her official mother, in her eyes.
It was easy to change mountains and rivers, but hard to change a person's nature.
But she heard that the person she dared not to provoke the most was Pang 'er.
She didn't know how Pang 'er had changed after such a long time.
While she was thinking about this, when she just entered the door, a few people came over angrily.
"Get out of my way, don't block my way!"
Oh, what a big temper.
The food and accommodation were all hers, but they still dared to ask her to get out of the way.
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes and looked at the girl in front of her, who was only 14 or 15 years old.
She looked bright and lovely, but unfortunately, her arrogant appearance made people unable to like her.
The maidservant next to her was also very overbearing.
Seeing that she didn't move, she couldn't help but scold her again.
"What about you? Who dares to come to our house and behave atrociously? Men, chase her out for me! "
As soon as her voice fell, she heard a slightly dissatisfied voice coming from behind the woman.
"Sir, so you are here? Let Ning Liang find you in our house. There are a lot of things waiting for you in our house! "
When she came out, Long Tianhao was naturally worried, so Ning Liang must follow her.
Previously, Ning Liang was responsible for arranging these people. Ning Liang also told them that if there was anything, they could come to him.
So when these maidservants saw that the chief butler of the Gong family was so respectful to the woman in front of him, they were all dumbfounded.
Lin Mengya glanced at Ning Liang. This guy was really determined to carry out Long Tianhao's orders and refused to let himself suffer a little loss.
But those maidservants and the lady in the middle were embarrassed.
