"Open the door." She said in a low voice.
Cai Ru wanted to stop her but she knew her Master's temper too well.
She secretly decided that if this group of people dared to act rashly, she would definitely not be polite.
Under the wave of questioning and insults from the group of people outside, the door of the small courtyard slowly opened.
When everyone saw the figure of the master and servant, they suddenly fell silent for a moment.
Then, they rushed in and surrounded them in the middle.
"You finally dare to come out and see people! Let me ask you, why did you plot to harm my Master! "
The man who rushed at the front had a face full of grief and indignation as he pointed at her and questioned.
Lin Mengya did not know him but there were many people like him.
Almost half of the group of people who surrounded her were accusing her of harming people.
The remaining small group were some stewards and servants in the residence.
It seemed that they were dissuading those agitated people but in fact, they were just watching the show.
Lin Mengya glanced at a few unfamiliar faces and understood what was going on.
It seemed that it was these people who added fuel to the fire.
Otherwise, she lived in such a secluded place and it was not something that a few outsiders who had just arrived at the Zhao Family could find.
"Everyone be quiet, our Miss still doesn't know what happened?"
To outsiders, Cai Ru had always been dressed as an old granny.
She had just opened her mouth when a few unfriendly looking people took the lead to speak ill of her.
"You old fart, scram to the side!"
"Maybe it was you, old thing, who poisoned our master together with your master!"
"Right! Take this old thing down, we might be able to get some information out of him! "
As they said that, a few hands actually reached out to grab Cai Ru.
Cai Ru laughed coldly in her heart, thinking that they came at the right time!
She was just thinking of finding a chance to teach this group of people a lesson.
But unexpectedly, at this moment, she only felt a grey shadow attacking her eyes.
Fortunately, she was a martial artist and her reaction speed was fast. She dodged it without batting an eyelid.
Lin Mengya also noticed it.
She secretly pulled Cai Ru's sleeve and asked if she was alright.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Cai Ru's forehead.
No matter what it was that sneak attacked her, if she was really an unprepared ordinary person, she would have long been in trouble.
She gently shook her head at her master.
At this moment, Lin Mengya was enraged by Cai Ru's plot.
"You're really capable. You're all able-bodied, but you can only attack an old and weak woman."
She borrowed Cai Ru's mouth to directly mock her.
Actually, not all of these people were shameless.
Immediately, the expressions of a few people who felt that something was wrong changed.
The three fellows who wanted to capture Cai Ru didn't agree.
"If she didn't help the evildoer, we wouldn't have made things difficult for her."
The way they looked at Lin Mengya became more and more malicious.
"If you confess to your crimes and hand over the antidote, we can let her live."
They had been yelling about "poison" and "antidote" since a while ago.
"What poison? I can't understand what you're saying. Besides, if you want to pin a crime on someone, you can always find a pretext. You all said that I was the one who poisoned him. Alright, then let me ask you, what kind of poison did I use? Where am I now? How did you find out? "
The crowd was stunned. Then, a middle-aged man who looked more mature walked out.
Although he was not as radical as the other three, his brows were tightly knitted and his face was full of worry.
"Miss, I am Jiang Yiming. May I ask where my master is?
Was the mutton pot prepared by Miss? "
The Jiang Family?
Thinking of the lovely Uncle Jiang, Lin Mengya's expression softened and she nodded.
"Indeed. The weather is cold, and I'm afraid that all of you will catch a cold, so I've ordered people to prepare a pot of mutton. "
When the surrounding people heard this, they immediately shouted angrily.
Jiang Yiming looked a little disappointed.
However, he still suppressed his anger and said to her, "It's this pot that has a problem! If you really didn't do it, then you should find a way to prove your innocence. "
Although he wasn't optimistic about it.
Lin Mengya's heart sank and she became more confused.
How did a small pot of mutton become poison?
Lin Mengya felt that she had been framed. She, Lin Mengya, had never been in the habit of being pushed around by others.
The most urgent thing now was to figure out the whole story of the poisoning.
"Since it's my doing that has a problem, I certainly won't sit back and do nothing. It's useless for you to quarrel with me here. I didn't poison it, so I didn't. However, since this matter has something to do with me, I'll find out the truth. Now, let's go to the front together. "
Even under the covetous eyes of the crowd, she didn't show the slightest timidity.
In the eyes of some people, she was "stubborn", but it added some credibility to her.
Jiang Yiming was also experienced in judging people.
The girl in front of him had a pair of clear eyes. Her attitude was neither servile nor overbearing, and her words were powerful.
She really didn't look like a despicable person who would poison people's food.
"Since you said so, then please."
With him setting an example, there were naturally people in the crowd who followed him.
Although there were a few people who were indignant, their concern for their master was more important than anything else.
Before Lin Mengya left, she looked back at the room.
She knew that Yu was watching everything here.
She gave him a "calm down" gesture. She didn't want to make Yu worry because of such a small thing.
"Hurry up, don't dawdle!"
She looked back at the crowd coldly and walked out with her head held high.
Long Tianhao quietly watched his wife leave through the window.
"Guards."
He ordered in a low voice.
Immediately, a personal guard appeared in front of him.
"Protect my wife. If anyone dares to harm my wife, kill him directly."
The coldness in his deep and long eyes was even colder than the cold snow outside.
He restrained his gentleness in front of his wife and children. Now, he was even more ferocious than before.
She touched her legs.
It seemed that some things had to be put on the agenda earlier.
The front yard was in a mess.
When Lin Mengya arrived at the front hall, she saw that the windows inside were closed.
People kept coming in and out. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Mrs. Duan instructing the servants to give water and medicine to the distinguished guests.
Compared with her, who was the target of public criticism, the scene in front of them was orderly.
"Mrs. Zhao, we've brought them here!" Someone shouted.
Mrs. Duan frowned slightly and looked at her with eyes full of disappointment.
Lin Mengya sneered in her heart.
No wonder she suddenly became a sinner. It turned out that Mrs. Duan was involved in it.
She didn't scold Lin Mengya. Instead, she walked in front of her and suddenly raised her hand.
"What are you doing?"
Cai Ru pinched Mrs. Duan's wrist.
Mrs. Duan's eyes were slightly red and she questioned her with a trembling voice.
"Old Master is not good to you.
Even if you are dissatisfied with me, you shouldn't hurt him too. Do you know that Old Master treats you as his daughter and trusts you so much? Do you feel sorry for him? "
What! She was acting now?
But she was in a bad mood today and didn't want to act with her.
"Get out of my way."
Mrs. Duan's eyes flashed and she struggled to withdraw her hand.
"If you still have a little conscience, hand over the antidote. I will plead with Master to let him off the hook. "
How "generous" she was!
Lin Mengya glanced at Mrs. Duan.
"Do you have that qualification?" She just said lightly, which was enough to make Mrs. Duan gnash her teeth in anger.
In front of everyone, she had to pretend to be a victim, so she could only bury her hatred in the bottom of her heart.
Lin Mengya directly walked past her.
Everyone was temporarily placed in the front hall.
She went forward to check and found that the most serious one was already unconscious.
"Carry them out and open all the doors and windows. Now, immediately, immediately!"
But no one around was obedient.
Especially Mrs. Duan, who seized the opportunity to stir up trouble.
"No way! Everyone has just been poisoned and it's so cold outside. What if they freeze? "
But Lin Mengya just turned around and stared at her coldly.
"I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong! If you don't want to see your master get sick, just listen to me! "
After that, Cai Ru had already started to open the nearest window.
But the group of people were still stunned, as if they were still hesitating about who to listen to.
At this time, Jiang Yiming was the first to act.
He hurriedly ran to his master's seat and directly led his men to carry Jiang Yishui out.
As the doors and windows were opened, the biting cold wind blew in, and at the same time, it also carried away the air in the room which was mixed with various smells.
A few people had already moved out, but a few still refused to listen.
Lin Mengya also did not want to quarrel with them, so she directly went with Cai Ru to move Elder Zhao who had already fainted.
Unexpectedly, she was stopped by Zhao Zifei.
"You are not allowed to touch my father!"
He came up to her like a filial son, looking at her as if she was his enemy.
Lin Mengya's face darkened.
She did not know why Elder Zhao's illness was the most serious.
If it was not ventilated in time, she was afraid that there would be sequelae.
"Don't worry about him, move."
She whispered to Cai Ru.
The latter had been waiting for this opportunity. She walked over, pushed Zhao Zifei away, and directly carried Elder Zhao on her shoulder like a dead dog.
"Let go of my father! Mother, come quickly! She is going to murder my father! "
Zhao Zifei went forward to grab her.
Unfortunately, Cai Ru was much faster than him.
With a turn of her body, Elder Zhao, who was carried on her shoulder, became a big human pendulum.
She directly kicked Zhao Zifei's chest.
"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, is Young Master Zifei alright?"
Cai Ru pretended to have just seen it and asked a few words without much sincerity.
Zhao Zifei clutched his chest and only felt like vomiting blood.
Why was this old woman with strange strength?
How could she carry an unconscious person and still be able to walk as if she was flying?
Lin Mengya signaled Cai Ru to quickly take him away.
Very soon, a row of seven or eight middle-aged and old men in brocade clothes were lying at the door.
"Get out of the way, no one is allowed to come near! Clean their mouths and noses, let them breathe smoothly, remember, don't give them anything to eat or drink. "
Her voice then came from inside the room.
