But good memories were always short-lived.
Fang Rao still remembered that after she got married, every time her father and mother came to visit her, her father would throw her mother aside and say that he would look for Huo Lang or her father-in-law.
But every time, Huo Lang would say that her father came very late. Even the servants of the Huo family complained that her father would barge into the Huo family's courtyards.
At first, she didn't believe it. She thought that her father didn't know the way and even quarreled with Huo Lang.
From then on, Huo Lang would accompany her father in person whenever he came.
However, his father came less often than before.
Then, the Elders suddenly wanted to expel the foreigners. Her father asked her mother to persuade her to go back to her parents' home to lie low, and then …
When Lin Mengya saw the confusion on Aunt Fang's face, she knew that she must have remembered something.
"Huo Lang … Huo Lang was the one who persuaded me to come back. I refused to leave, and he told me that I must go back to the Fang family so that he could protect me."
Some neglected details had now become the key to unlock the key.
Lin Mengya smelled something unusual.
But she didn't want Aunt Fang to work too hard, so she asked gently, "After that, did you notice anything unusual around you?"
There was no doubt that Huo Xiao's father and Aunt Fang were close.
But according to Aunt Fang, the Huo family could even exchange most of their ancestral property for this marriage. Logically speaking, Huo Xiao's father would never give up his wife so easily.
Unless the Huo family was already facing some threats at that time.
If his wife continued to stay, then Aunt Fang would be in danger.
"After that, after that, I was depressed for a period of time. Until two months later, my father suddenly relented and promised me that I could see Huo Lang, but I couldn't go back. He also forced Huo Lang to sign the divorce agreement. "
That meant that during the two months when Aunt Fang returned to her parents' home, Huo Xiao's father must have been dealing with the crisis.
But for many years after that, Huo Xiao's father was willing to endure the pain of being separated from his wife, but he still didn't bring her back.
Of course, Old Master Fang must have interfered, but she felt that the Huo family shouldn't have given in like that.
Also, why did the Elders' Council suddenly expel the foreigners?
Unfortunately, too much time had passed, causing all of this to become a mystery.
"I actually hate him! I hate him for not bringing me along. I told him a long time ago that if I were to be with him, I could give up the position of Miss Fang, the wealth, and the status, but he refused! "
However, Fang Rao was clearly dominated by pain. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. In the end, she covered her face and cried bitterly.
Realizing that something was wrong, Lin Mengya pressed hard on the acupuncture point on the top of her head.
"Ahhh —"
Fang Rao suddenly screamed. Then, her entire body fell into Ji Yunshu's arms. Her eyes were tightly shut. Clearly, she had fainted.
But before she could call for help, she heard a "bang" sound, and the door was kicked open.
Then, a figure leaped over like the wind and hugged Aunt Fang in his arms.
"What's going on? Madam! Madam! What did you do? What happened to my wife? "
Zhao Yixuan couldn't wake Madam up, so he vented his anger on Lin Mengya.
However, the latter was frowning at this moment, and he had even grabbed Fang Rao's wrist.
"Who has Madam seen these past few days? Has she ever gone out? "
Zhao Yixuan answered her question without hesitation.
"She hasn't gone out. But a few days ago, the butler brought a few people over and said that they wanted to repair Madam's garden."
"Among these people, is there anyone with a bell on their ear?" She asked again.
Zhao Yixuan shook his head with a straight face. "I didn't notice. What happened to my wife?"
Lin Mengya thought for a moment and then explained, "When I was chatting with Madam just now, I noticed that she suddenly lost control of her emotions. But before this, Madam didn't have this tendency. So I suspect that someone did something to Madam. Someone might have deliberately guided or hinted at Madam. "
In fact, many people had probably heard of people who used to be normal, but suddenly went crazy one day or because of something.
But it wasn't sudden. Mental breakdowns were often accompanied by many triggers.
It could be said that in Aunt Fang's life, other than the matters related to the Huo family, nothing else would cause such a huge emotional fluctuation.
The strange thing was that just a moment ago, Aunt Fang said that she was tired and wanted to leave the Zhao family to live a new life. Obviously, she had already let go of the past.
The next moment, she suddenly lost control of her emotions because of the past.
No matter how she looked at it, it felt wrong.
Zhao Yixuan's face was cold and he hugged Madam even tighter.
"No matter who he is, since he dared to plot against my wife, I must find out who he is!"
"Elder Zhao, I advise you not to act rashly. This person is strange and unpredictable. I have encountered him before and almost fell into his trap. Elder Zhao, you should put Madam down first. Let me examine her, in case there is any future trouble. "
Zhao Yixuan's gaze was like a knife, shooting at her.
Lin Mengya could only brace herself and fake a cough. She said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Elder Zhao, I am a woman. Have you forgotten again?"
Oh, the Taoist priest in front of him was indeed a woman.
Only then did Elder Zhao retract his dagger-like gaze. However, the hands that were hugging his wife did not move in the slightest.
Lin Mengya could only sigh.
Why were all of them so jealous?
However, Elder Zhao only put her gently on the bed and didn't stop her from getting close.
Lin Mengya gently rubbed Aunt Fang's chest.
Soon, he let out a breath and slowly woke up.
"Phew … Why did I fall asleep?"
Fang Rao, who had just woken up, was still in a daze.
She felt as though her emotions had fallen into a huge whirlpool. The intense sorrow pulled at her, causing her to sink involuntarily into the whirlpool.
It was a strange feeling. Now that she thought about it, she felt a lingering fear.
"Madam, you are awake. Do you feel uncomfortable?"
She turned her head and saw Lin Mengya and Zhao Yixuan standing in front of her bed.
She immediately lowered her eyes, and her attitude was still cold and distant.
"Much better. Why are you here?"
Zhao Yixuan hid his distress in his eyes. He knew that Madam didn't want to see him, but he still felt a dull pain in his heart.
"I …"
"I asked someone to invite Elder Zhao here. The situation just now was too frightening. I was afraid that I couldn't handle it alone."
At the critical moment, it was Lin Mengya who took the initiative to help Elder Zhao out.
Perhaps because she was still emotionally unstable, Aunt Fang didn't continue to chase her out. Instead, she rubbed her head and asked in confusion.
"What, what happened to me just now?
”
Lin Mengya carefully observed Aunt Fang's expression.
Fortunately, she didn't find anything unusual.
"You almost broke down just now, but I don't think it's your fault. Someone might have deliberately led you."
"Led me?" Fang Rao looked at her in surprise.
"Yes, it's the same situation as Zhao Ziyan. But your hint is different from his. There must be some kind of language or action that triggered it. " Lin Mengya hinted at Aunt Fang. After all, it wasn't appropriate to discuss what they had just discussed in front of Elder Zhao.
Fang Rao nodded, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
She just wanted to keep a little bit of the best memories, but someone used it as a sharp sword to hurt her.
Could it be that she would never be able to think of Huo Lang again in the future, as well as all the little things that had happened between them?
"Madam, don't worry." Zhao Yixuan's voice was low and gentle, which Lin Mengya had never heard before.
"I won't let anyone hurt you."
This was a promise, and it was something he had to keep.
Fang Rao raised her head and when she looked at Zhao Yixuan, a flash of hope flashed across her eyes.
But then, like a shooting star, it disappeared in the blink of an eye without a trace.
"I'm a little tired, you can leave first."
After saying that, she turned over and lay back down.
Zhao Yixuan felt empty in his heart.
Previously, Madam scolded him and chased him away, but at least in her eyes, she still let him be.
But just now, he saw the emptiness in her eyes.
This made Elder Zhao very worried.
He tilted his head and gave Lin Mengya a look.
She knew that she couldn't escape this sentence, so she nodded and gestured for Elder Zhao to leave first, and she would follow later.
In the living room, she had just closed the door when Elder Zhao pulled her to the door anxiously.
"Is my wife hiding something from me?"
Lin Mengya thought that his wife was probably going to run away.
But she couldn't say anything about this.
She could only shake her head and kick the question back.
"Even if there's something, how would I know? Elder Zhao, you spend every day with Madam, don't you know anything? "
Zhao Yixuan was very upset.
He was already in his forties and fifties, but now he was like a young man, deeply uneasy because of Madam.
"How would I know? Madam doesn't want to talk to me at all. If I had known this, I would have waited for Madam to scold me every day. At least I can know what she is thinking. "
Lin Mengya …
She didn't know whether to sympathize with him or to scold him.
He was the one who used his wife as bait. Later, he broke up the couple and forced her to remarry. Now, his wife was disheartened and he was the one who was anxious.
What was this called?
Yes, it was good to abuse his wife for a while, but to chase her, he would be cremated.
Moreover, he seemed to have a blood feud with the Huo family!
Lin Mengya really wanted to ask him directly if he was one of the people who had killed the Huo Family.
But she also knew that even if he was involved, Elder Zhao wouldn't tell her the truth, and the truth couldn't be changed.
It would be more practical for her to persuade Elder Zhao to let go of him.
"Madam has been overworked recently, and her mood is fluctuating because of the matter between Zhao Ziyan and Miss Huo. As for the hint, I will try my best to help Madam get rid of it. But you still need to be more careful. "
