"Oh? Brother Feng, why don't you tell us about it so that we can refer to it? "
Gong Bin suggested with great interest.
Feng Qi told him about the customs of his hometown without reservation.
"Usually, an old man like Old Master Gong is loved and respected by the entire clan where I come from. On the day of his birthday, everyone in our clan will hold a candle and hold a prayer ceremony. On one hand, it is to pray for the longevity of the old man, and on the other hand, it is to hope that we can live as long as him. Later, the prayer ceremony became a day for everyone to have fun. On this day, people in the family will light long candles all night, and others will hold candles outside, singing and dancing around the fire. "
Lin Mengya didn't know if it was an illusion.
She always felt that the scene and the game were inexplicably scary.
Perhaps they were just used to it?
"It's like guessing the lantern riddles here. But it's my great-grandfather's birthday, not the Chinese Valentine's Day or the 15th of January. It's not appropriate to watch the lanterns, is it?"
Gong Bin didn't make a fuss, but Feng Qi's words made him think of something.
He had thought of almost everything he could think of during the day.
That was all he could do to hold a birthday banquet, invite the vaudeville troupe, and gather everyone together.
But at night, he could use his brain.
It would be best to let everyone participate, as Feng Qi said.
In this way, those aristocratic families who were persuaded by him to come could also enjoy it.
Sometimes, such entertainment was needed in the business world.
"If it's at night, we can only watch the lanterns and the fireworks. Sister, you usually have the most ideas. Why don't you think about it? "
Being suddenly mentioned by Gong Bin, Lin Mengya thought for a while and then shook her head.
"I can't think of any good ideas for now. Besides, time is tight. What if it's too late? "
At this time, Feng Qi naturally took over the topic.
"When I was at home, I once helped my grandfather to hold a birthday banquet. If Brother Gong trusts me, please leave this matter to me. "
Would he be so kind?
Lin Mengya didn't quite believe it and immediately said, "Forget it. Childe Feng is a guest. How can I trouble you?"
"Miss Gong, we have been here for a long time, and Old Master Gong treats us very well. I was wondering how I could repay him. Since there's an opportunity this time, I'll definitely do my best to handle this matter well. Please rest assured, Miss Gong. "
She wanted to continue to refuse, but Dear Brother suddenly lost his mind.
"Since Brother Feng insists, then you can rest assured for the time being."
Lin Mengya really wanted to give him a good beating.
He clearly harbored ill intentions towards her. Why couldn't this big brother see it at all?
But now that things had come to this, she was in no hurry to stop it.
Looking at the gentle and harmless Feng siblings, Lin Mengya felt a little uneasy.
What were the Feng siblings plotting?
The birthday banquet was only five days away.
Apart from those small and medium-sized families, some of the more powerful families had also arrived.
Lin Mengya, who had been idle for a long time, finally came in handy.
However, if she had to put on airs all day and deal with those old men, she would also be mentally tired.
Moreover, her enemies had been rather quiet recently.
She knew that the calmer it was now, the more intense the undercurrent would be when it came.
She was also secretly tensing up every single one of her nerves.
"Miss, someone outside said that Madam Lian and Miss Lian have arrived!"
Baizhi came to report the news, panting.
Lin Mengya immediately smiled. She had gone in a hurry last time and didn't even have time to say goodbye to Aunt Lian and Sister Hui.
She quickly looked at herself in the mirror to see if she looked dignified, and then said to Baisu, "Go and invite my brother over. Tell him that I have a surprise for him."
Although her brother had never taken the initiative to ask about Sister Hui, she had seen him staring at an old pouch several times.
The small word "Hui" on it was enough to explain everything.
But at the same time, she couldn't help but be a little worried.
Although she had given Sister Hui the antidote to cure her madness last time, she didn't know how effective it was.
There was also the skinny monkey who pretended to be her brother.
No one could directly kill him before the poison was cured.
So if Sister Hui still didn't accept the reality and treated the skinny monkey as her brother's substitute, what should her brother do?
Suddenly, she was a little annoyed.
She should have written to her and hoped that the antidote would work.
Lin Mengya was dressed in a dark red robe and looked graceful.
Lin Nansheng, who was next to her, was dressed in a silver-gray light armor and looked heroic.
This pair of brother and sister were also very good-looking.
If they appeared alone, they would be stunning enough. Now standing together, there was a kind of superimposed impact.
In contrast, the gentle and elegant brother and sister a few days ago seemed a little dull.
After all, although the green bamboo and water lotus were warm, the beautiful and majestic scenery was especially memorable.
"Madam Lian and Miss Lian are here —"
Seeing them at the door, Lin Mengya hurried to greet them.
They hadn't seen each other for only a month, but Lin Mengya had a special feeling for Madam Lian. They immediately greeted each other and chatted warmly like a mother and daughter.
Shangguan Hui, who came in with her adoptive mother, didn't feel anything special before.
Until she felt a scorching gaze fall on her body.
She used to be very familiar with that gaze and looked forward to it. It seemed that it had exhausted all her enthusiasm and vitality to finally become hers.
She was stunned and her whole body was stiff. She even didn't dare to look at it, for fear that it was the lingering dream from last night.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Next to her, the maid's call made her return to the world.
She was at a loss and her eyes were unfocused. Like a child, she stood there and didn't know what to do.
"Hui 'er? Is that you? "
She heard that person call her as usual.
Everything was proving one thing crazily. It was not a dream! It was not an illusion of nothingness, let alone that disgusting substitute.
It was him, it was really him!
Shangguan Hui could hardly control her hands. She began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? "
The maid said in surprise.
Lin Nansheng only felt like a knife was twisting in his heart. He walked firmly to her side step by step, ignoring everyone present.
"Hui 'er, it's me."
He said softly, for fear of disturbing the woman in front of him.
They had been separated for too long, missed each other for too long, and suffered for too long.
Now, the clouds finally dispersed, and the sky was clear after the rain.
On the other side, Mrs. Lian couldn't help but feel a little confused when she saw her adopted daughter suddenly stop and the very handsome young man.
But after seeing her adopted daughter's reaction, as an experienced person, she also guessed a thing or two.
But Shangguan Hui's behavior was so strange that she thought her daughter was frightened. When she was about to go over, she was stopped by Lin Mengya.
"Well, they have been separated for a long time. Let's not get involved."
Lin Mengya dragged away her lovely and amiable Aunt Lian without hesitation. Aunt Lian was worried and looked back at every step, for fear that her baby adopted daughter would be bullied.
"Ya 'er, who is this man?"
"My brother."
"Your brother? He is also a member of the Gong family, but I have never seen him before. Is he a member of the Gong family? "
Seeing the puzzled look on Aunt Lian's face, Lin Mengya hugged her arm affectionately and explained, "He is my biological brother. This is a very, very long story. Come on, let me tell you. "
From Sister Yue Ting, who died for love, to Shangguan Hui, who was brave for love.
Her brother's love history seemed simple, but what he had experienced was already beyond that of an ordinary person.
By the time she finished telling the story of how Sister Hui had been tortured to insanity in order to protect her son, how she had brought her home, and how she had successfully recovered under the careful care of Aunt Lian, her mouth was dry, and Aunt Lian had cried a few times along with her.
Her eyes were red, and there was love in her eyes for the two girls.
"It's not easy. Yue Ting is also a good girl. Why can't good people be rewarded? Those people are too abominable. If I were to encounter them, I would definitely skin them alive! "
Lin Mengya smiled, but she didn't dare to tell Aunt Lian that she had skinned them, really.
From this point of view, she and Aunt Lian could be considered to have a telepathic connection.
"No wonder, when we went back a while ago, this girl was always depressed. At first, I thought she was hurt by that swindler. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid she was disappointed, and that's why she was so sad. "
Lin Mengya nodded repeatedly.
"But I'm also very happy that Sister Yue could cure the poison safely. By the way, how did you deal with the fake one? "
Speaking of this, Aunt Lian's face turned ugly.
"That shameless scum! Back then, he was so stubborn that he insisted on coming with us. I discussed it with your uncle, and before Yue 'er's poison is cured, we'll leave that bastard alive. Later, he tried to take advantage of Yue 'er. I didn't spare him, and asked someone to break his legs. Unexpectedly, when your Sister Yue saw it, she spat out a mouthful of blood. We thought that she was feeling sorry for him. Unexpectedly, when she woke up, she suddenly became sober. As for that swindler, your uncle seemed to have found out something else. Now he is being kept in our private prison. "
Lin Mengya didn't expect this method of curing the poison.
It must be the antidote that worked. When Shangguan Hui saw the fake being beaten, she must have mistakenly believed her heart and realized that the man was an imposter.
It was no wonder that the swindler was a coward who couldn't stand the punishment.
When Elder Sister Hui was imprisoned with Elder Brother, she had seen Elder Brother's face when he resisted those threats and temptations.
In fact, everything in front of her made her disillusioned.
As for the truth, it naturally came to the surface.
