Zhao Yixuan hesitated for a moment and then said in a low voice, "They went after the people who ambushed me. But from the looks of the two young men, they seem to have a grudge against them. "
"Who ambushed you?" Lin Mengya wrote again.
When it came to this matter, Zhao Yixuan was completely confused.
"I don't know them, but I saw the shape of a Red Spider Lily on their sleeves."
Red Spider Lily?
Wasn't that the pattern used by Huo Xiao's enemies?
Why did they ambush Elder Zhao?
She was sure that before today, there was no such people in her and Yu's list of enemies.
Could it be that Long Tianhao wanted to avenge Huo Xiao?
But it didn't seem right.
If it was really because of Huo Xiao, Yu would not have decided to do it himself.
For a moment, Lin Mengya felt more and more puzzled.
"Oh yes, who wanted to harm you?" Elder Zhao asked in a low voice.
Lin Mengya took a deep breath and suppressed the doubts in her heart.
"It was a steward named Zhao Ting. I heard from Aunt Fang that he used to work for the Zhao family. Although this person didn't admit that he did it, the poison was indeed found on his body. Also, the thing that can awaken Zhao Ziyan was found with him. "
Elder Zhao knitted his brows tightly when he saw Zhao Ting's name.
Aunt Fang was right. Zhao Ting's betrayal was something neither of them had expected.
"Zhao Ting … Where is he now?"
Lin Mengya wrote, "We hid him before we decided to fake our deaths. But the most important thing now is to find out who wanted to harm Aunt Fang. "
Zhao Yixuan nodded and agreed with her.
The two of them continued to discuss in their little notebooks.
In the end, Elder Zhao decided to cooperate with them and deceive the demons and ghosts hiding in the mansion.
But Lin Mengya couldn't resist the urge to kick Zhao Yixuan.
It was just that the other party dilly-dallied and asked if they could only write her name at the time of the funeral.
His reason was that he was afraid that his wife would be affected by bad luck and her life would be shortened.
Lin Mengya almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
"They want to harm your wife!!! What's the point of writing my name!!! Also, am I not afraid of shortening my lifespan? "
Lin Mengya used three big exclamation marks at the end of every sentence to express her anger.
Who is this Love Brain? He was definitely not the ruthless character who seemed difficult to deal with when they first met.
In the end, under her coercion and temptation, Zhao Yixuan reluctantly agreed.
Even so, he still very craftily left out the dot at the top of the word "Fang".
Fortunately, not many people in the Zhao Family truly cared about Auntie Fang's funeral.
When Elder Zhao proposed to give his wife a grand funeral, Old Madam didn't dare to object too much even though she wasn't satisfied.
However, she came up with an idea and pushed Madam Duan to the front.
"I'm old, I can't do these trivial things well. After all, Madam Duan is a woman from a large family. I think we should let her help you with these matters. "
However, Madam Duan, who had been standing to the side, shook her head and declined the old madam's recommendation.
In the end, it was Zhao Yixuan who made the final decision.
"Madam Duan, I'll have to trouble you with this matter. I just want my wife to rest in peace as soon as possible."
Madam Duan looked at him in surprise.
However, Elder Zhao's face was full of sadness and haggard.
She gritted her teeth, nodded, and said, "Please rest assured, Elder. I will definitely take good care of Madam's funeral."
In Old Madam's smile, Zhao Yixuan temporarily handed the key to the head of the family to Madam Duan.
In the yard, Lin Mengya, who no longer needed to go out to inquire about the news in person, also learned from Elder Zhao that Madam Duan would be in charge of the family.
On the night when she and Elder Zhao discussed it, Elder Zhao transported most of the people in the yard in the name of collecting the corpses.
Aunt Fang, Aunt Lan, and a few people who knew kung fu and could protect themselves were left behind.
They had now met up with Moyan and Huo Yunsi, who had been smuggled out in advance.
Until the matter was settled, they would be safe.
"What's the background of this Madam Duan?" Lin Mengya changed a small notebook.
She had no choice. It had been used too frequently recently. Fortunately, she had stock.
There was not much expression on Zhao Yixuan's face.
"She should be a mistake I made when I was young and frivolous."
"Should?" Lin Mengya wanted to kick him again.
What kind of scumbag was this? He already had a child. How could he not be sure?
But Elder Zhao obviously had the right to speak.
"I was schemed by others and met her by accident when I was recuperating. At that time, we were young and inexperienced, so I couldn't control myself. "
Lin Mengya felt that she couldn't control her legs.
Although she had wanted to stay out of the relationship between Aunt Fang and him before, now she felt that she should raise the hammer of justice and hammer this old scumbag to death.
"But —"
The hammer hovered in the air.
She only saw Elder Zhao rubbing his forehead with a puzzled look on his face.
"I remember her, but I feel that she is very strange to me. And the child she gave birth to, don't you think that he is not like me at all? "
Bah! Obviously, the two-faced man's change of attitude was exactly the same as his.
Lin Mengya clenched her pen, for fear that she would stab the scumbag to death in anger.
"So you secretly raised the mother and son? Elder Zhao, I have always thought that you are a responsible man. Now it seems that you really let me down. "
After writing, she showed it to him with a look of disdain.
However, Elder Zhao denied it. "I didn't abandon them. In fact, I don't remember why they left me. However, I am sure that I did not abandon her, nor did I sever ties with her.
In fact, yesterday was the first time I saw them again. I went to find them and left them a large sum of money, which was enough for them to live the rest of their lives without worrying about food or clothing.
I can swear that when I married Madam, I never carried such a sin. "
As a person who had learned to read minds, Lin Mengya could easily tell whether a person was lying from his eyes, expressions, and movements.
Although Zhao Yixuan looked a little unreasonable, in fact, after spending a long time with him, one would find that his heart was completely different from his appearance and temperament.
Especially when it came to the relationship with Aunt Fang in the car, he was an out-and-out love brain.
What he said just now, she was sure that he was not lying.
In this case, it should be Madam Duan who left Elder Zhao first.
Could it be that this was another drama where she abandoned her husband for wealth and glory, and when her husband became rich, she wanted to reconcile with him again?
？
But Madam Duan and Zhao Zifei were different from Old Grandma.
The two of them had a lot of secrets on them.
"Anyway, I don't think it is a coincidence that they appeared. In particular, they seemed to know the mansion like the back of their hand, and they seemed to be looking for something. "She wrote down her doubts.
Elder Zhao furrowed his brows as well.
"I don't know what it is, but I know that they will definitely show their fox tail."
Both of them thought so.
Following the funeral, Lin Mengya became a servant girl of the Zhao Family with the identity of a newly bought maidservant by Elder Zhao.
Because she was born with a "disability", she could not speak, so she was arranged to guard the mourning hall.
According to her observation, Madam Duan was indeed a good housekeeper.
Everything was in order under her arrangement.
Everyone had their own duties, and the arrangement was clear.
And Lin Mengya's job was to guard the mourning hall and keep the incense burning.
It was a relatively easy job, but 30 minutes was very fast. Even if she wanted to be lazy, she could not be away for too long.
Fortunately, she had the system to remind her, so she was more diligent than others.
And Madam Duan finally arrived at the mourning hall at dusk.
"You can leave now."
She dismissed the people around her.
Lin Mengya also followed them out, but was stopped by Madam Duan halfway.
"You stay."
She was curious about what Madam Duan was going to do.
But now she suspected that Madam Duan was suspicious about her identity.
Fortunately, she was good at pretending. Even if she had thousands of guesses in her heart, she still looked calm and composed.
Madam Duan first burned incense on the tablet, and then her eyes fell on her face.
"You just came to the mansion, right?"
Lin Mengya nodded, and she was more sure that Madam Duan must have been to the Zhao Family.
Otherwise, how could she know that she was a newcomer at a glance?
"I heard from the steward that you are diligent and responsible. I was thinking that if you are really as good as he said, when the funeral is over, I will let you serve me. Are you willing? "
Madam Duan's words were like a pie falling from the sky to an ordinary servant.
Everyone in the mansion was talking about it now. It was said that the Zhao Family's backyard would be surnamed Duan in the future.
Therefore, some people wanted to flatter Madam Duan.
Therefore, Lin Mengya pretended to be flattered, and she was so excited that she did not know what to do.
Madam Duan was not surprised at all. Instead, she showed a tolerant and kind smile.
"I know that you can't speak, and it may be a defect in others' eyes. But I think it's important to speak like this. I don't have any other requirements. The most important thing to do is to stay with me and not talk nonsense. I believe you can do this very well. "
Madam Duan's kind face could easily buy people's hearts.
If it were a real mute servant today, these words alone would be enough to move people, and then they would work hard for Madam Duan.
Tears welled up in Lin Mengya's eyes at the right time. Then she lowered her head and wiped her eyes. She had enough scenes.
Madam Duan was very satisfied with her performance, and timely said, "But now, I have an important thing that needs a suitable person to do."
She thought in her heart, "Finally, the main topic!"
