The next day, when Lin Mengya came to visit again, she was very relaxed.
Anyway, she could be considered to have a clear path with Zhao Yixuan. No matter what trouble she caused, at least she would have a guarantee with Elder Zhao.
As long as the Zhao family didn't do anything, no one in the Fang family could do anything to her.
Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the inner courtyard where Aunt Fang lived, she saw Elder Zhao glaring at Aunt Fang with a livid face.
Aunt Lan, on the other hand, was in a sorry state. She was tied up, and her face was full of tears.
"Zhao Yixuan, get out! I don't want to see you again. Get out! "
Fang Rao was so angry that she pointed at the door and told him to get out.
Elder Zhao's face became more and more ugly. He clenched his fists and walked out of the inner courtyard with a dark look in his eyes.
He didn't see Fang Rao's eyes immediately become red and she stumbled back into the room.
The whole courtyard was shrouded in a low pressure.
Seeing this, Lin Mengya hurried to untie Aunt Lan.
"Aunt Lan, why is your mouth so badly scalded?"
She didn't see it clearly just now. She only saw that Aunt Lan's lips were full of blisters.
"Miss, Miss …"
She struggled to say two words, but Lin Mengya saw that her tongue and the inside of her mouth were also seriously scalded.
"Get some ice! And get some cold water. Don't talk, I'll help you stop the pain. "
In addition to the scalding, she also smelled an unpleasant medicine in Aunt Lan's mouth.
It was a medicine specially used to treat women's menstrual problems. But if a woman took a large amount of it during menstruation, it was very likely to cause bleeding and even life-threatening.
Aunt Lan was much older than Aunt Fang, and judging from her physical condition, she shouldn't have taken this medicine.
Moreover, she had scalded herself like this.
While she was thinking, the servants had already brought her what she wanted.
Lin Mengya first asked Aunt Lan to shout for ice, then took out the burn ointment she made and applied it evenly on Aunt Lan's wound.
"It may be a little bitter, but it will soon stop hurting. Don't talk first. We'll talk when you feel better. "
According to her estimates, Aunt Lan's throat and gastrointestinal mucosa would be damaged to a certain extent.
Fortunately, she was there. Otherwise, even if Aunt Lan could recover, she would definitely suffer from side effects or be unable to speak for the rest of her life.
Aunt Lan looked at her gratefully, but her eyes still unconsciously wandered inside.
She knew that he was worried about Auntie Fang.
"Go and recuperate. Leave this to me."
Only then did Aunt Lan enter with the help of the servants with the medicine she had given her.
As soon as she stepped through the door, she heard muffled cries.
But soon, the crying stopped.
Lin Mengya hesitated for a moment and gave Aunt Fang some time to tidy herself up before walking over.
"You're here. Take a seat."
Auntie Fang tried her best to make it look like there was nothing wrong with her, but how could she fool her?
"Aunt Fang, what happened? Why was Aunt Lan scalded?"
At the mention of this matter, Aunt Fang's expression was a little stiff. It was obvious that she did not want to mention it again.
But Lin Mengya felt that it was not that simple.
From Elder Zhao's dark face, she could guess that there must have been an argument between them.
After thinking for a moment, she said in a low voice, "Elder Zhao found out last night. He already knew that I'm a woman and that Huo Yunsi was taken away by us. "
”
"What?" Aunt Fang exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Mengya nodded at her, indicating for her to calm down.
"But Elder Zhao did not make things difficult for us. He asked me to continue to relieve your boredom. So no matter what happened between you and him, I think it might be a misunderstanding. "
"Misunderstanding? He never trusted me. How could it be a misunderstanding? "
At the mention of this matter, Aunt Fang's expression became even more aggrieved.
She had never been a person who would use dirty tricks.
Although she hated the Fang family and the Zhao family, she had a clear conscience all these years.
Who knew that heartless bastard Zhao Yixuan would wrongly accuse her!
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows. This was strange.
"What happened to Elder Zhao?"
"It was Madam Jing. Madam Jing had been feeling unwell since morning. Later, she went to see a doctor. Unexpectedly, she was bleeding profusely. They said that she had taken some medicine during her monthly delivery and almost died. Zhao Yixuan, that bastard, insisted that it was Aunt Lan who did it! Aunt Lan had been by my side for more than 20 years. How could I not know what kind of person she was? Unexpectedly, they really found the medicine in the small kitchen in my courtyard. In order to protect me, Aunt Lan admitted to the crime and drank the scalding medicine as punishment. "
At this point, she suddenly cried out in surprise and bounced up from her seat.
"I've forgotten about it. Someone, go and get a doctor!"
She was so angry that she forgot to get a doctor to treat Aunt Lan.
Lin Mengya held her back.
"Don't worry, I've already examined Aunt Lan. She should be fine. But how did the medicine come to be in your small kitchen? "
Fang Rao was also full of questions.
"I'm also puzzled! Aunt Lan stayed in the courtyard and never went out. She has always been very strict with the small kitchen. Even the people in the mansion are not allowed to enter. "
Aunt Fang's words seemed to give Lin Mengya some clues.
"What about now?"
Fang Rao said matter-of-factly, "Of course … no one is watching!"
The two of them looked at each other, obviously realizing the loophole in her words.
Lin Mengya immediately whispered to Aunt Fang, "From now on, you, Zhao Ziyan, and Huo Xiao don't eat or drink. We'll talk about it when I come back!"
After that, she quickly walked out of the room.
The courtyard was in a mess. Everyone had been affected by the argument between Elder Zhao and Fang Rao.
She had been to the small kitchen several times to brew medicine, so she naturally remembered the way.
She walked through the veranda and did not expect to be bumped into the next moment.
"Ouch, ah, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, Little Taoist!"
Her clothes were soaked by a cup of tea. Then, a faint fragrance rose into the air.
Lin Mengya's expression changed. She immediately grabbed the small hand that was about to wipe her clothes.
"Where did this tea come from?" she questioned.
The little servant girl was so frightened that she almost cried. She pointed to the small kitchen behind her.
Lin Mengya threw her hand away and ran inside to check.
The small kitchen was very clean. Only the tea stove was still in use, and the charcoal had not been extinguished.
But the lid of the teapot that was used to boil tea was open.
She leaned on it and sniffed it. Her expression suddenly changed.
Then, she ran to the front yard as fast as she could.
Damn it! She better not let her know who did it. Otherwise, she would twist her head off!
Seeing that the door was right in front of her, she shouted before she entered.
"Don't drink the tea. Hold your breath!"
Suddenly, there was a loud bang. Lin Mengya was so anxious that her eyes turned red. She jumped into the room like a rabbit.
"Aunt Fang, are you okay?"
In the inner room, Aunt Fang looked at Zhao Ziyan in front of her with a shocked expression.
Lin Mengya went forward and pulled Zhao Ziyan away. Fortunately, the tea on the table was covered by the teacup. She breathed a sigh of relief.
"Miss Gong, did you see a ghost?"
It was the first time that Fang Rao saw her in such a panic.
Lin Mengya did not have time to explain. She just carefully covered the teacup and took it out.
"Go and get me a few buckets of water. The more the better."
The servants immediately went to the backyard to get water. Then, she turned around and went back to the room to ask Aunt Fang for a coat to wear.
At this moment, Zhao Yixuan and Madam Jing appeared outside the yard.
"I told you to take care of yourself. Why did you have to come here?"
Elder Zhao's face was still a little pale.
It was not that he did not believe Madam. But there were witnesses and material evidence, and Madam did not allow him to argue. That was why the matter had become like this.
Madam Jing leaned on the servant girl's shoulder and smiled weakly.
"I'm fine. But you and Elder Sister quarreled because of me. In my heart, I really feel apologetic. Elder Sister is straightforward and she can't stand being wronged. What's more, this might be an accident. Why did you make such a big fuss? "
She lowered her eyes. Coupled with her pale face, she looked especially weak.
Seeing her like this, the people around her could not bear to see her like this.
"What's more, I'm going to leave soon. Before I leave, I just hope to see you and Madam get along well."
Her voice was soft and her attitude was humble.
It was as if she really wanted to see them reconcile, just like what she had said.
Zhao Yixuan rubbed his brows.
He subconsciously felt that this was not the best time.
But he did feel guilty to Ah Jing, so he could only do it reluctantly.
At most, he would put in a few good words for Madam.
Looking at the door in front of him, he could only brace himself and go in.
Unexpectedly, there was not a single person in the huge courtyard at this moment.
"Where are the servants? Why aren't they serving in the yard? "Madam Jing looked around and asked in confusion.
Zhao Yixuan's face was a little stiff.
It seemed that he had really angered Madam. Otherwise, she would not have chased everyone away.
"Old Master, Madam Jing, please allow me to go and inform them, lest we disturb Madam."
The maid standing beside Madam Jing volunteered.
"Old Master?" Madam Jing did not make the decision on her own. Instead, she looked at Zhao Yixuan.
Seeing that the latter nodded, the maid walked in quickly.
But the moment she reached the door, she seemed to have heard something and was slightly surprised.
Then, she leaned against the curtain and paused for a moment. In the next moment, she staggered and almost knelt down, as if she had been frightened.
"This lass, why can't she do such a simple thing?"
Madam Jing was still talking with a smile.
Who knew that the lass would stumble to Zhao Yixuan and kneel down.
"There's a, a man's voice in Madam's room."
These words could not be said carelessly.
Madam Jing's expression changed and she immediately said, "You must have heard wrongly. Or maybe it's Young Master Ziyan's voice?"
