Looking at the longsword like a treasure, the Bai Family Head's eyes suddenly turned red.
Bai Huaan didn't expect his irascible father to have such a reaction. He was flustered and didn't know how to react.
"Great! Great! I didn't expect the Gong family to understand me the most in this world. Old man, your great-granddaughter is not bad! "
The word "not bad" was filled with the most sincere affirmation.
Before this, the head of the Bai family only thought that Gong Ya was the great-granddaughter of an old friend and treated her as a junior.
But now, he felt that she was the real soulmate.
Gong Qianfeng also raised his head proudly and praised without hesitation, "That's only natural. This child of mine is the best person in the world."
Master Bai couldn't help but spit at him.
"You old man! I think this child is good because she grew up outside. If she grew up with you, she might be buried. "
"Humph, you're just jealous that I have a good descendant."
Lin Mengya shook her head secretly. This was probably the way they got along.
Because of the two of them, neither of them would touch the scar on the other's heart that was truly hidden.
"Alright, I'm very satisfied with this gift. Second Brother, put it away. Remember to put it in my study. No one is allowed to touch it. "
"Yes."
Seeing his second son send the serpent away, Master Bai couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
After his wife passed away, he stood his ground and even expelled many members of the Bai family before he succeeded as the head of the family.
Those people thought that he wanted to take over the Bai family's business. But they didn't know that he just wanted to fulfill his wife's wish to protect the Bai family's business.
Later, he managed the family business and never had another woman by his side.
Those members of the family gradually understood his intention.
But in the end, he still felt that it was a pity that no one understood his painstaking efforts.
But now, his heartstrings were touched by a junior. It was really a complicated feeling.
"As long as you like it."
Lin Mengya obediently returned to her seat and secretly smiled in the direction of Long Tianhao.
It was true that she had paid for it, but it was her husband who had retrieved it.
The latter was still expressionless and cold, but she could read the smile in his eyes.
When a husband and wife are united, their sharpness can cut through metal.
With this gift, the atmosphere became even more harmonious.
The head of the Bai Family was not worried that the old man from the Gong Family was giving the younger generation a chance.
Firstly, with their friendship, there was no need for that.
Secondly, this old fellow didn't know how to wield a saber or a spear. Perhaps he didn't even know what the Suppressing Flood Dragon was.
Therefore, his favorable impression of Gong Ya, the young Patriarch, increased by quite a bit.
"Have a seat, everyone."
The head of the Bai family sat on the main seat, and the others also sat down.
After asking someone to change the tea, the Bai Family Head said, "Since there are no outsiders here, I will speak the truth. That old thing has already told me a little about your purpose for coming here. To be honest, the Bai Family has indeed spent a lot of money on these hanger-ons over the years. If you can make the best use of them and give them a good future, it will be better than staying here with me. But there is one thing. Everyone knows about what you have done before. Even if we show up, those hanger-ons may not be completely obedient to us. "
Lin Mengya nodded. In fact, she had already thought about this.
The reason why the Bai Family supported such a large group of people was not only to uphold justice, but also to educate the people in their feudal lands.
If this had happened in other countries, perhaps the Bai Family would have become a source of education, just like the Qilu Empire.
But it was ruined because the feudal lands of each family were relatively closed, and even the emphasis of each family was different. Therefore, the scholars of the Bai Family could only stay in the Bai Family's feudal lands, and did not have much space to display their talents.
In addition, the strict system of the aristocratic families made the small aristocratic families, and even the scholars of ordinary birth, tightly trapped.
They could only choose to stay in their own families for the rest of their lives, or come to the Bai Family and seize this only opportunity.
As a result, although there were many talents here, the limited opportunities became a disadvantage.
Fortunately, there was no need to worry about food or clothing here, and there was a relatively relaxed and free academic atmosphere.
But it also put a lot of pressure on the Bai Family.
Therefore, the Gong Family's request for talents at this time could be said to have solved the Bai Family's urgent problem.
Who knew that such a thing would happen.
Not only was the Gong Family depressed, but the Bai Family was also depressed.
She thought about it and felt that it was better to ask.
"Previously, there was one thing that puzzled me. Since the Bai Family welcomed this cooperation, why did someone obstruct it?"
"Girl Su, what do you mean by this?"
She looked at the Bai Family Patriarch and Second Elder Bai, and found that the two of them looked like they really did not know anything.
He chose his words carefully and told her everything that he could.
After listening, the Bai Family Patriarch fell silent.
After a while, he shook his head in confusion.
"If what you said is true, then the person who poisoned Sir Xunyang must have something to do with our family."
Yes, because if Sir Xunyang died, it would only affect the Bai Family and the Gong Family.
The Gong Family would naturally not do something like shooting themselves in the foot, so the only one left was the Bai Family.
The person behind the scenes was probably not a member of the Bai Family, but an enemy of the Bai Family.
"Also, if the other party's goal is to turn our two families against each other, I don't think they will let this matter go."
"You don't have to worry about this. I will send people to guard Sir Xunyang's mansion to prevent any accidents."
Bai Huaan promised. Lin Mengya continued, "I think that we should find out the truth as soon as possible. It would be best if we do it in front of everyone. "
The father and son of the Bai Family nodded. After all, if it really was done by an enemy of the Bai Family.
In that case, the spearhead of this matter could be turned to the Bai Family.
The Bai Family Patriarch thought about it over and over again, a serious expression on his face.
"In my opinion, this matter should be done sooner rather than later. Girl Su, stay here for the time being. Give me two days and I will make the arrangements. "
"Okay, then we'll have to trouble Patriarch Bai."
"There's no need for such pleasantries between our two families."
Although the Bai Family Patriarch didn't seem serious when he quarreled with her great-grandfather, when it came to handling matters, he was swift and decisive.
On the second day after they entered the Bai Family, the Bai Family officially put up a notice outside saying that the Gong Family was using the family's reputation as an excuse to request a thorough investigation of what happened that day.
It had to be known that the family's reputation was equivalent to the foundation of the family's survival.
No family, even those small families in the Zheng Family's fiefdom, dared to joke about this sort of matter.
In a flash, the discussions in Fengyuan City began to lean towards the Gong Family.
At the same time, those who wanted to act against Sir Xunyang would have to think thrice before acting.
Because if Sir Xunyang died now, it would be very difficult for them to throw the dirty water at the Gong Family.
Moreover, the Gong Family would very likely retaliate, claiming that Sir Xunyang had committed suicide to escape punishment.
In short, they would be open and aboveboard this time. At the very least, those who wanted to cause trouble in the dark wouldn't be able to succeed so easily.
Lin Mengya was very satisfied with the notice.
To deal with this kind of sinister and despicable person, she needed to use some thunderous methods.
Before this matter was concluded, they would peacefully stay in the Bai Family and go out as little as possible, so as to reduce the amount of trouble they might encounter.
But some trouble could very easily come knocking on their door.
The Bai Family had arranged for them to stay in a courtyard that was neither too large nor too small.
Furthermore, there was a direct door that opened onto the street. There was no need to use the main door to enter or exit, making it extremely convenient.
While she was reading with the children, she heard someone talking outside the room.
"Excuse me, is Sir Su Yan in?"
It was easy to tell who the owner of that soft and weak voice belonged to.
Lin Mengya didn't even raise her head. She only had someone close the door to the inner room.
Long Tianhao, who was drinking tea outside and leisurely looking at his wife and children, immediately had his face darken.
But his wife's attitude was very firm. Whoever caused the trouble should be dealt with.
He reluctantly looked at the tightly shut door and instantly lost his good temper.
"Son-in-law, it's a young lady outside looking for you."
The servants in charge of serving had all been taught by Uncle Lian. Whenever a young lady came to the door, they would call him "son-in-law" and "son-in-law" without hesitation.
Long Tianhao narrowed his eyes, and his tone had long lost patience.
"Throw her out."
"This, this is not very appropriate. After all, this is the Bai Family … "
That was why it was troublesome.
Except for his wife, he was too lazy to deal with any other woman.
Just when he was about to continue to ignore it, the door of the inner room opened.
His wife, who was dressed as a family, came out with a smile.
"It's hard to refuse such hospitality. Why don't I go with you to see what's going on?"
Long Tianhao fixed his eyes on her and wondered why his fiancée had suddenly changed her temperament today.
But Lin Mengya didn't care and said, "Aren't you curious why this lady from a prestigious family would put aside her reservations and come to see you again and again?"
So, did his wife mean that she was sick?
"What you said makes sense. Then let's go and have a look first."
There must be something wrong when things were abnormal. First it was Gong San, and then it was him.
Could it be that the Bai Family was at odds with them?
The two of them walked out of the guest room together, and in the courtyard, there was a graceful voice that hurriedly walked in front of them and bowed.
"This servant, Shui Yi, greets the two sirs."
Compared to the previous few times, Shui Yi today was more well-behaved.
But if she really knew the rules, she shouldn't have come here to look for a married man.
"Miss Shui Yi, why did you come to find us?"
Shui Yi raised her head and looked at her. She wanted to say something but hesitated to do so.
Today was strange, could it be that they were here to look for her?
"May I know if miss can move?"
"It's here."
Long Tianhao said resolutely.
