Lin Mengya thought for the whole night, but before she could come up with a better idea, the wind outside changed quietly.
"Oh, isn't this Miss Song? How can I let you do the work? Come on, sit down and eat. "
She was just helping sister-in-law Zhu to carry some bowls and chopsticks like yesterday, but sister-in-law Zhu took it from her with a smile and winked at her.
"I told you that our boss has high standards. He will never fall for those who insist on coming to him!"
Lin Mengya suddenly felt a little speechless. She wanted to change the topic, but she heard someone smashing a bowl on the table.
"What did you say? Say it again! "
Xiaoju, who came to get breakfast for her mistress, exploded almost immediately. She shouted at sister-in-law Zhu angrily.
Sister-in-law Zhu's words were meant for her, so she had nothing to worry about.
"I'll say it again. Do you think I'm afraid of you? Your old master is indeed a hero, and our boss is indebted to him.
But when we brothers were saving your family's Young Miss, we lost eight lives! Can't we make up for your old master's kindness?
After you and your mistress came up the mountain, you were so disrespectful, and you even ordered my sisters around. Why? Is your mistress the most respected person in the world, and the others are worse than pigs and dogs? "
Sister-in-law Zhu and Miss Tao had a deep grudge.
Those who went with their boss to save their mistress were all brothers in the village.
Although they said that they were willing to repay their boss's kindness before they left, they were all living people to sister-in-law Zhu. They were her brothers and sisters.
How could she not be sad when they died?
She did not have such a big grudge, but since Miss Tao came up the mountain, she always claimed to be Master Huo's benefactor.
She even took the kindness of her brothers for granted.
Not only that, but the two of them even treated the people in the stronghold like slaves.
This caused the dissatisfaction of all the people in Black Tiger Village.
Especially sister-in-law Zhu.
Even Master Huo had to give her some face, and sister-in-law Zhu also treated Master Huo as her own brother, so she did not expect him to find such a wife.
Little Chrysanthemum's face turned red.
She pointed angrily at Lin Mengya and sister-in-law Zhu and said sternly, "Well, I know that you mountain bandits have bad intentions towards my Miss.
Since that's the case, my Young Miss and I don't need to talk nonsense with you ungrateful people.
Today, we'll go down the mountain so that our young mistress won't be bullied by you! "
Mrs. Zhu sneered and said, "Take care. I won't see you out."
"You!"
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Lin Mengya, who had been watching from the sidelines, could not help but frown and said, "Your name is Xiaoju, right? Let me ask you, do you listen to your Miss, or does your Miss listen to you?
It's no wonder that your family's Young Miss isn't well-liked. With an evil slave like you around, she can forget about ever getting married again in this life. "
"What do you mean? I'm doing this for the good of our family's Young Miss. Don't talk nonsense! "
Lin Mengya looked at her coldly and said, "If you're really doing this for your Young Miss, then why are you being so domineering and making enemies for her everywhere?
From what I know, your Young Miss is timid and often stays in the house.
Usually, you're the one who brings things to the room, and at least half the time, you spend at least half the time with the people in the village.
Since you're living under someone else's roof, as a maidservant, you should always think about your Young Miss and put in good words for her.
But why do I feel that most of the conflicts between your Young Miss and sister-in-law Zhu are caused by you?
What's your motive for urging your Young Miss to do this? "
In the village, people like sister-in-law Zhu were definitely not as meticulous as you.
People like Wu Ying, who had a high status, had never had any contact with Miss Tao because they wanted to avoid arousing suspicion.
In this way, such a simple and obvious problem was ignored.
When Xiaoju heard this, her eyes flashed with uneasiness.
"Of course I have to listen to my Young Miss!"
Seeing that it was not easy to fool the woman in front of her, she argued irrationally, "It's you who didn't take my Young Miss seriously, and now you want to put the blame on me. How can you bandits be reasonable!"
Lin Mengya looked at the indignant Xiaoju and said with a frown, "You keep saying bandits here and there. To put it bluntly, aren't you despising the people here?
In this case, it's better for you to leave the mountain as soon as possible. You should know that the food and drinks that you and your Young Miss eat and drink now are given to you by these bandits. No wonder they don't treat you as a family. "
Unexpectedly, Xiaoju said agitatedly, "How rare do you think we are? How noble is my Young Miss's background? Is she going to spend the rest of her life in this bandit's den? What Master Huo? You make it sound nice, but he's just a bandit leader. How can he be worthy of my Young Miss! "
His words had truly provoked the anger of the crowd.
Sister-in-law Zhu directly picked up the butcher's knife in the kitchen and stared at the little girl in front of her with an unfriendly expression. She could not wait to chop her into pieces the next moment.
At this moment, Lin Mengya also smiled.
"It seems that your purpose is to stop your Young Miss from marrying Master Huo, right?"
Xiaoju also realized that she had actually told the truth.
In this case, she simply had nothing to worry about. She gathered her courage and said, "Yes! I won't let my Young Miss suffer in this bandit's den! "
Lin Mengya's eyes turned cold, and there was a chill in her voice.
"Then why do you keep saying that your Young Miss and Master Huo will be a couple? Last night, you even encouraged your Young Miss to look for Master Huo in the middle of the night. Tell me, what's your purpose? "
Everyone was stunned. No one expected her to suddenly change the topic and mention what happened last night.
Sister-in-law Zhu was the first to be dissatisfied. She instantly stabbed the butcher's knife into the table and glared at Xiaoju.
"Miss Song is asking you a question. Hurry up and tell this old lady the truth!"
This time, Xiaoju was really afraid.
Her eyes were evasive, and she was obviously not as confident as before.
"I, I don't understand what you're saying …"
"You don't understand?"
Lin Mengya glanced at her, and calmly sat at the side, peeling off Xiaoju's skin.
"If you really want to protect your Young Miss like you said, and not let her suffer here, then the most important thing you should do is to clarify the relationship between your Young Miss and Master Huo.
Your Young Miss is not familiar with the ways of the world. One look and you can tell that she has been brought up at home all year round. If such a Young Miss really has a relationship with Master Huo, do you think she will leave with you again?
Unless you're using your Young Miss's trust for your own personal gain!
You're using your Young Miss's trust for your own personal gain! "
"I'm not!"
Xiaoju suddenly denied anxiously. "I'm Young Miss's woman when I'm alive, and I'm Young Miss's ghost when I die! I'll never harm Young Miss! "
"If that's the case, then why did you deliberately use your Young Miss's name to clash with the people from Black Tiger Bastion?
Aren't you afraid that when your Young Miss marries them in the future, they will make your Young Miss suffer because of what happened before? "
"They won't have the chance!"
In a moment of desperation, Little Chrysanthemum suddenly shouted such a sentence.
Then, she covered her mouth with her hand, looking a little panicked.
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes and asked coldly, "What do you mean by 'won't have the chance'? What are you planning? "
Xiaoju had already realized that something was wrong, but it was too late.
Even sister-in-law Zhu had already understood Xiaoju's abnormality through the conversation between the two of them. She immediately grabbed the back of Xiaoju's collar and dragged her away angrily.
"I didn't expect a little slut like you to be so malicious! Let's go, let's go see Master Huo now and clear your stomach of all the dirty water! "
Xiaoju fought with all her might, but she was no match for sister-in-law Zhu.
Lin Mengya did not follow her.
What happened next was Master Huo's own matter. She could only remind him to return the favor of sending people to protect the Song couple.
She deliberately hid in the courtyard for a day.
In the evening, it was Wu Ying who knocked on her door.
"Mr. Wu, what can I do for you?"
This time, Wu Ying's attitude towards her was much more polite.
He bowed deeply to her and said, "I'm here to express my gratitude to you on behalf of our boss."
"Thank me for what?" She was puzzled.
Wu Ying said guiltily, "Thank you, Miss Song, for finding a hidden danger for us. To be honest, Xiaoju has been bribed by our enemy.
If it weren't for your wisdom, I'm afraid that she would have leaked our information. "
Sure enough, things were not far from what she had guessed.
However, Lin Mengya did not take credit for it. Instead, she said, "Mr. Wu, you're exaggerating. I just want to return a favor.
Since the matter has been resolved, I won't disturb you any longer. Please send me away, Mr. Wu. "
She thought about it a lot.
Although there were many benefits to joining the Black Tiger Stockade, they also had their own enemies.
If the Black Tiger Stockade lost to their enemies one day, wouldn't the Song couple be like sheep in a tiger's mouth?
However, Wu Ying said with some surprise, "Miss, you don't want to stay in the stockade anymore. Is it because they didn't treat you well? Or did someone offend you? "
Lin Mengya quickly shook her head and explained, "No, sister-in-law Zhu is cheerful and warm. She takes good care of me.
However, I'm afraid that my uncle and aunt will worry about me. "
"I see."
Wu Ying let out a long sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Miss Song, don't worry. Master Huo has decided to let Master Song and his wife move to the mountain."
"What?"
Lin Mengya was stunned.
"Didn't Master Huo say that he needs to think about it?"
She could not help but complain that Master Huo was a bandit leader. Was it really good to let outsiders in so easily?
