For some reason, Lu Ran suddenly trembled when he heard this.
After he made up his mind to seize the credit of others, he led his men to keep an eye on the entrance and exit of the town.
He did this so that he could take over the hostages brought back by the team as soon as possible.
As the captain and the immediate superior of the team leader here, he had to listen to him no matter how unwilling he was.
Lu Ran thought for a while and felt that there should be no oversight in what he had done.
What was more, this master had been taken away. As long as he killed him, all the credit would be his.
At the moment, he calmed down and pretended to be very respectful and modest.
"I dare not. It was my negligence that gave the thief a chance. Please punish me, Master."
His shamelessness was beyond Lin Mengya's expectation.
She wanted to give him a chance, but she didn't expect that he would come to court death.
It was good that such a person was a black sheep.
She raised her eyebrows and restrained the coldness on her face. It seemed that she believed what he said.
"The thief is cunning. Captain Lu has tried his best. I forgive you."
"Thank you, Master."
Lu Ran was delighted and couldn't help feeling proud.
He heard that the master was very clear about rewards and punishments. This time, he would not only be rewarded greatly, but also get rid of the team leader for him.
Just as he was happily thinking about the reward that the family head would give him, he heard the family head say, "Since you were the one who saved them, you'll be responsible for sending them back to the academy."
Lu Ran hurriedly agreed to it. He patted his chest and promised that he would send her safely to her place. Only then did he leave in satisfaction.
As soon as he left, Cai Ru frowned and poured a cup of tea for her master.
"Master, he was obviously talking nonsense. Why didn't you expose him on the spot?"
She had never seen Lu Ran before.
If the second young master hadn't happened to be nearby, it would have been difficult for them to rescue her master.
Gu Pan also held his little face and looked at her in confusion.
Lin Mengya took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Do you think I'm the kind of naive girl who can be deceived at will?"
They shook their heads without hesitation.
"That's right." She raised her head and said coldly, "You eat and drink from me, but in the end, you still want to play me like a fool. If I let him go so easily, wouldn't I be letting him off easy? "
Only then did the two of them relax and wait to watch the show.
After everyone rested for a while, they set off for Feiye the next day.
But before leaving, Lin Mengya asked someone to bring along the team leader.
As Lu Ran looked at the cowardly wretch with his head lowered in silence, his heart was filled with the joy of having succeeded in his scheme.
In high spirits, he ordered his men to protect the rescued students and ordered loudly, "Let's go!"
Lin Mengya did not leave with Lu Ran and the others. Instead, she left with her second elder brother.
As for the real students, she hid them in the carriage and brought them back with her.
It would take at least a few days to travel from Border Town to Feiye City.
Along the way, Lu Ran tried to please Baisu and Cai Ru many times, but Baisu and Cai Ru turned him down.
At the same time, she also sent people to collect information about Shi Tuo and his group.
Then, there was the thing that Shi Tuo told her.
She did not expect that there were really people who chose to kill those innocent slaves in order to please the Gong family or cheat the Gong family of their reward.
Although the information in her hands showed that this was only a small part of it.
But Lin Mengya was very clear that the real situation must be much more serious than this.
Thanks to Shi Tuo's words, otherwise when she found out by herself, the situation would probably be irreversible.
After reading these things, she rubbed her eyebrows.
The policy was good, but when it was implemented, there were always loopholes.
In the long run, no matter what kind of strategy, it would become a hotbed for some people to make profits.
However, fortunately, she had been prepared before.
She had selected a group of people, led by Song Di, who now had a little fame and prestige in the fief, to set up a monitoring organization.
In this way, all the rules in the fief would be supervised.
If there was any unreasonable thing, they would be able to give feedback and solve it as soon as possible.
In this way, fairness and justice could be guaranteed.
It seemed that this matter had to be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
Finally, Feiye City was right in front of her eyes.
The news of her return was not widely announced, but her family was inevitably a little excited.
Especially the two babies, they couldn't sleep the first night. Before dawn, they had to ride their ponies and wait outside the city to welcome their mother.
The two little babies were so good-looking that they were the focus of attention wherever they went.
However, the residents of Feiye City all knew these two little childes, so no matter how much they liked and were curious about them, they just took a look from a distance and didn't dare to stay too long.
"Brother, why hasn't mother come yet?"
Ning 'er leaned against his brother's arms, looking a little listless.
Moyan's eyes kept looking into the distance, and he had to patiently comfort his younger brother.
"Soon. Second Uncle went to pick up mother. They must have come back together."
The two little babies were so eager that they even ate two mouthfuls of breakfast on the ponies.
Fortunately, they saw Gong Er's tall figure at a glance.
The two little ones immediately urged their little ponies to gallop over in a joyful manner.
"Mother!"
The childish call made Lin Mengya, who was in the carriage, unable to sit still any longer.
She immediately got out of the car and looked at her two little babies with a smile on her face. They quickly ran towards her.
"Hahaha, two little brats!"
Gong Er narrowed his eyes, but he was a little proud in his heart.
He had asked someone to get these two ponies. They were both fine horses that could travel thousands of miles a day. He got them when they were young, so they could cultivate their relationship with their masters.
The maroon pony and the white pony ran almost side by side to Lin Mengya.
Then, the two of them quickly separated, one on the left and the other on the right.
"Little Childe, be careful!"
Seeing the two little babies pouncing on her, the servant behind them was almost scared to death.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya reacted quickly and immediately hugged her two little babies from both sides.
And she almost fell into the carriage because of such a strong impact.
But it didn't matter.
The two little babies were like two clingy little rice cakes, rubbing against her body.
"Mother, we missed you so much!"
Mo Yan lay in his mother's arms and tried to smell the unique medicinal fragrance on his mother's body.
Little Ning clung to her neck and pressed his tender face tightly against hers.
She gently patted her sons' little buttocks and then …
She kissed each of the two babies' little cheeks.
"I missed you so much too. Let's go home!"
The family returned to the old house of the Gong family in a lively manner.
Compared with before she left, the old house seemed to be quieter.
She knew the reason for the change.
Because of the special nature of the old house, she didn't intend to settle everyone in the old house.
After getting used to it for a period of time, she built the streets next to the old house one after another.
According to the closeness and the status of the family, all the members of the Gong family were moved to those houses.
But no one had any objection.
After all, no matter how big the old house was, it was inconvenient to live because of the large number of people.
It was not like they could have their own independent yard when they came out.
And the size of the yard was divided according to the number of people in the family.
As long as they didn't betray the family, they would always have the right to use the house. They couldn't buy or sell it, but they could rent it. However, they had to pay a part of the rent to the family every month.
Naturally, they had no complaints about getting a good yard for free.
In this way, the old house was like a core, protected by a lot of yards in the center.
Lin Mengya looked at the current situation with satisfaction. She knew that the big guys in Karghalik would never let her down.
When she arrived at the door, people who had nothing to do today were waiting for her.
Especially Aunt Lian and her mother-in-law, two equally noble and elegant madams, asked her to step over the brazier and burn away all the bad luck.
She did so one by one. The two mothers sandwiched her in the middle, one on the left and one on the right, and kept asking about her well-being.
Finally, she arrived at the main hall. Her great-grandfather, father, and several brothers were all looking at her with smiles.
Lin Mengya formally saluted her great-grandfather and father.
The two of them deliberately asked a lot of questions, and after she answered them one by one, it was considered a temporary end, and they let her go to talk about some intimate things with the womenfolk.
Aunt Lian and Madam Jiang had the highest seniority among the womenfolk here.
One of them treated her like her own daughter, while the other was her mother-in-law. When they met, they felt like they had met in-laws.
But because Madam Jiang had been deceived in the past, she had done some bad things.
Aunt Lian was naturally worried that her daughter would be wronged. She had planned everything in her mind to help her daughter get back at her.
But when the two of them met, they felt like they regretted not meeting each other earlier.
After the misunderstanding was resolved, the two of them got along like real sisters.
Now that she was back, the two mothers-in-law immediately surrounded her and kept asking her about what had happened.
She chose some unimportant truths to tell, but it also made the two mothers feel distressed.
"Now that you're back, you should just stay at home for a while. Look at you, you've lost weight. "Aunt Lian held her hand and said reluctantly.
Lin Mengya didn't dare to agree.
One had to know that she was about to go to the Aboriginals soon, and the situation there was still uncertain.
She had no choice but to say a few sweet words to make the mothers happy.
"Oh yes, why don't I see Sister Hui?"
Lin Mengya looked around curiously.
She knew that Sister Hui had a deep relationship with her. If she knew that she was back, she would definitely not fall behind.
As soon as she finished asking the question, she saw a happy smile on the faces of Aunt Lian and her mother-in-law.
She recalled the letter that her brother had sent her a few days ago. He mentioned that there was going to be a happy event at home. She immediately reacted and asked in surprise, "Sister Hui is pregnant?"
