"Brother, why is it so quiet at home today?"
Not only Shangguan Qing and Lin Mengwu, but also the servants who served beside them had changed their faces. Those servants who surrounded Shangguan Qing to help the tyrant were all gone now.
"Father was angry, so he grounded Shangguan Qing and Lin Mengwu. He also changed the servants in the house, so that you won't be wronged anymore."
Lin Nansheng looked at his sister with pity and self-blame in his eyes.
Lin Mengya lowered her head and took a sip of honey tea. She still had some complaints in her heart.
At that time, she didn't know what her father was thinking. Although he loved her very much, in the end, she almost lost her life.
To be honest, although her father really cared about her, if he wanted to protect her, she wouldn't have been blamed so much.
Maybe it was because she was ignorant and didn't know how to fight back. Every time her father came back, she would never tell on him, nor would she say anything unfavorable to Shangguan Qing and Lin Mengwu. That was why they had the opportunity to take advantage of her.
After all, she couldn't understand her father's helplessness at that time.
Lin Mengya pondered for a while and said,
"Now, there are a lot of spies outside. Brother, aren't you afraid that someone will sneak in and steal the news?"
Lin Mengya's worry was reasonable. But Lin Nansheng smiled and said,
"You don't have to worry about this. These people are carefully selected by my father and me outside. Every one of them is a trusted follower of our Lin family. Those old people have been driven to the backyard. And my father doesn't allow them to go out, so what you worry about will never happen. "
Lin Nansheng's promise made Lin Mengya feel relieved for the time being.
Anyway, Shangguan Qing and Lin Mengwu were the masters of this mansion. Her father and brother's actions were a little too aggressive, so it was inevitable that they would have a rebellious mentality.
After thinking about it again and again, she comforted,
"In fact, my father's method is foolproof in the military camp. But here in the capital city, these people are very cunning, and honest soldiers can't resist them. You might as well tell the gatekeepers not to let them send anything out. Their methods are much better than those spies. "
Lin Mengya's worries were not unreasonable. Although the spies in the military camp had been carefully trained, they could only use limited materials.
Everything in the barracks was simple, so if something special appeared, it would be easy for others to recognize it.
However, things were different in the capital. Anything could become a medium for transmitting information. Although Shangguan Qing had temporarily fallen out of favor, she was still the legitimate daughter of the Shangguan family. Given the domineering character of the Shangguan family, they would certainly not allow their daughter to be treated like this.
In the end, her father still lacked some experience in dealing with women.
"You mean, let them out? Xiao Ya, have you forgotten how they treated you? "
Lin Nansheng couldn't believe it. He had thought that his younger sister would be the happiest to ground those two women.
He didn't expect her to say that.
"I haven't forgotten about this matter, but brother, the muddy waters of Jingdou aren't something you and father should get involved in. The Shangguan family has always been eyeing us covetously. You should understand the reason why Second Mother married me to Long Tianhao. "
Lin Mengya tried her best to make her brother understand her painstaking efforts.
It didn't matter if she suffered some grievances. Now the rain had passed. But her father and brother must never get involved in the fight between women.
One must know that although her father had led millions of troops and was unstoppable on the battlefield, he had never been so simple when it came to women.
"Well, you don't have to say anything. Xiao Ya, I know you're doing this for the good of me and father, but father has his own considerations. You don't have to worry so much. "
She wanted to say something more, but seeing that Lin Nansheng was so insistent, she could only swallow the unfinished words into her stomach.
Hopefully, she was thinking too much.
"Ya 'er, why are you back? Are you frozen? "
A deep voice came from outside the curtain, and then a gray figure appeared in Lin Mengya's sight.
"Father, I'm here to see you."
In front of her father, she was willing to be a lovely and obedient daughter forever. She immediately went up to her father, hugged his arm, and said coquettishly.
"Okay, then stay for dinner before leaving. We, father and daughter, have not seen each other for many years. There are some things that I have to tell you. "
He looked at his daughter lovingly. The timid little girl back then had already grown into a beautiful and sensible young lady.
Her black hair was tied up. In a situation that he did not expect, she had already become a married woman. If her mother knew about this in the afterlife, she would definitely be at ease.
"Well, I want to eat something delicious."
She smiled sweetly. Perhaps only in front of her father could she be so unguarded.
"You little greedy cat, Ya 'er, did you not eat well in the mansion? I think you seem to have lost a lot of weight. "
Although the daughter in front of him was born with a beautiful face, her chin was pointed, and she was not as cute as when she was a child.
Moreover, he always felt that his daughter's breath was not stable, and it seemed that she was not very healthy.
Was it because she was not used to the food cooked by the chef in the mansion?
Lin Mengya immediately shifted her attention when she saw her father's scrutinizing eyes. If her father knew that she had been poisoned and injured, he would definitely stir up a storm.
The Lin family could not afford it, and she could not afford it either.
"It's okay, maybe it's because I've grown taller recently. By the way, Father, let me introduce someone to you. Xiaoyu, come here and meet me and my brother. "
Lin Muzhi and Lin Nansheng more or less noticed the handsome young man sitting quietly in the corner.
The young man was only fourteen or fifteen years old, but he was very handsome, and did not look like a son of an ordinary family at all. He bowed gracefully, and his eyes were calm without any avoidance. Obviously, he was a person who had seen big scenes.
"Greetings, General and Young General."
When the father and son of the Lin family were admiring the calm attitude of the little guy, they saw Lin Mengya pull the little guy up with a proud smile on her face.
"I'm here today to ask a favor of you, Father."
Then she told them how she met Xiaoyu, and how she wanted her father to give Xiaoyu a legal identity.
Of course, Lin Mengya was very wise to keep the matter of how she punished those scoundrels a secret.
After all, in the eyes of her father, she was still a sweet and lovely child.
"It's not difficult. In our family, there are a few people of the same generation as your uncles, and they need a son to continue the family line. But I think this young man is very handsome, and I'm afraid that the identity of the Lin family will be a disgrace to him. "
Lin Muzhi was not sure, but he did not refuse. After all, it was a small request from his daughter, and he had no reason to refuse.
But he could tell at a glance that this young man was not from an ordinary family. If he accidentally got involved in some karma, the Lin family would be in trouble again.
"General Lin, you have a good eye. In fact, I'm from an aristocratic family in the State of Lieyun, but the treacherous officials broke up my family. There are only a few loyal old servants to take care of me. If you find it difficult, you can forget what I said. "
Lin Mengya did not expect that Xiaoyu would be so frank about his identity.
But in her heart, she felt that this little guy had become much more mature.
Yes, with the power of her father, he would definitely find out that he was from the State of Lieyun. If she told him everything now, her father would feel that she was upright.
"I see. I've heard of the State of Lieyun. However, I want to know what your relationship with the Xin Clan is. "
Although Lin Zhongyu was well-prepared, he was still a little surprised.
Lin Muzhi, who stood in front of him, was calm and composed, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, making it impossible for him to hide.
Lin Zhongyu did not evade. Instead, he smiled sadly, and his clear eyes were full of sorrow.
"You're indeed the famous General Lin. The Xin family … the Xin family is my enemy. I have an irreconcilable feud with the Xin family! "
Lin Mengya was shocked. The ruthlessness and coldness in Xiaoyu's tone were far from what a young boy should have.
Could it be that all her previous guesses were wrong? But if he was not a child of the Xin family, why did Xin Li specially come here to warn her?
What on earth had happened in the past that she did not know?
In the spacious warm room, the slender boy clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were full of hatred. His taut spine gave off a sense of arrogance and stubbornness.
"Father, Xiao Yu saved my life before. I believe that he will not do anything to hurt me or the Lin family. "
Her light and gentle tone inexplicably comforted Lin Zhongyu's heart.
A pair of soft and warm little hands gently caressed his shoulders, bringing him warmth, comfort, and infinite strength.
He turned around and looked at the girl standing beside him. No matter what happened, she would rush in front of him, protect him, support him, and trust him unconditionally.
"Father, since Xiaoya trusts him so much, why don't you do as she says?"
As a senior sister-con, Lin Nansheng naturally supported his sister unconditionally. Even if Lin Mengya wanted to poke a hole in the sky, he would naturally learn from Goddess Nvywa and mend the sky with stones.
"Alas, forget it. I'll arrange it. From now on, you're a man of the Lin family. I hope you can be a good man and don't bring shame to the Lin family. "
