"Miss Ya, forgive me for being presumptuous, but you're not from the aboriginals, right?"
Although Jiang Yishui was asking her, his tone was already full of certainty.
Lin Mengya didn't want to continue hiding it and nodded slightly.
Everyone thought that if she was from the aboriginals, she wouldn't have the courage and boldness.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, there are still so many hidden talents outside. In comparison, the aboriginals are still like frogs at the bottom of a well. It won't be long before we are left far behind. "
Jiang Yishui sighed.
When they were young, the aboriginals weren't so closed off.
Who didn't yearn for the prosperous outside world?
Take himself for example. After he became an adult, he followed the elders in the clan to see the outside world.
Unfortunately, they had no choice but to return to their clans in the end and waste their lives away in this tiny world.
"Uncles, do you have any difficulties?"
She wasn't stupid. She could naturally tell that her suggestion was very tempting to these people.
Jiang Yishui sighed and exchanged a helpless look with Elder Zhao, indicating for him to speak.
Zhao Yixuan was also frowning.
"Lass, it's not that we can't bear to leave this place. It's that the aboriginals can't leave the land of the aboriginals forever. "
"Why is that so?" It was her turn to be confused.
"It's a long story. In short, unless the aboriginals betray the clan and are expelled, they can't stay in the clan forever."
She could hear the unwillingness in Elder Zhao's words.
Just as he was about to ask about it, he heard a commotion outside.
"You can't come in! Get out! Without Miss Ya's permission, you can't barge in! "
Who was this?
Lin Mengya gestured for everyone to calm down and wait for her to come back before discussing.
The originally quiet and leisurely old people in the courtyard had now surrounded the entrance.
She could only faintly see that there were people inside.
Cai Ru raised her voice and asked, "What's going on?"
The noisy crowd finally quietened down. Then, someone ran over to report the situation.
"Miss Ya, they insisted on coming in! We stopped them, but they still attacked! "
"Nonsense! When did we make a move? "The person who was stopped retorted.
She narrowed her eyes and saw clearly that the people who were surrounded were Madam Duan, her son, and Zhao Xun.
She asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Hearing this, Zhao Kuang revealed a cold smile at her.
"If it wasn't for the fact that I didn't come, I really wouldn't have known that you were so daring!"
"What do you mean?"
Zhao Xun surveyed the crowd. In the end, her gaze landed on the pregnant women who were being protected by their family members.
His face immediately revealed an irrepressible excitement.
"Still alive, hahahaha!"
He looked at Lin Mengya with greed in his eyes.
"Hand over the formula and I can spare your life. If you don't appreciate my kindness, I'll … "
"What will you do?"
Unexpectedly, Elder Zhao's impatient voice sounded from behind her.
Zhao Xun was stunned. After that, she evaded his gaze.
But a moment later, he became complacent again, no longer feeling guilty.
"So it's uncle."
It was no wonder that this girl was so confident. But uncle, don't forget that the Elders have ordered that anyone who can solve the secret of 'Winter Snow Pain' must immediately report it to the Elders. No one is allowed to keep it to themselves.
As an Elder in the clan, you can't violate the rules knowingly. "
"Are you threatening me?" Elder Zhao's expression didn't change.
But Zhao Xun already felt that victory was in her hands.
"I dare not. I just want to help you correct your mistake."
His eyes were full of benefits that were at his fingertips.
If he handed this matter over to the Elders, wouldn't the position of an Elder be at his fingertips?
At the thought of this, he couldn't suppress his excitement.
Looking at her, she was like a vicious dog looking at its prey.
Unfortunately, Lin Mengya was not a fish that could be slaughtered by others.
"Even if I have the solution, I won't hand it over to you."
She rejected flatly, but Zhao Xun looked like he had a card up his sleeve.
"You have to give it to me now, even if you don't want to. Zifei, tell her. "
Zhao Zifei walked out and looked at her with a gloating expression.
"You're not a member of the Fang family, and you're not one of the aboriginals! And you're the murderer of Zhao Jian from the Zhao family! "
No one had expected it to be like this.
Lin Mengya was also quite surprised.
But she wasn't afraid of her true identity being exposed. She was just puzzled. How did they know?
"Zhao Jian? Isn't that the young master of the Fang family who died some time ago? "
Most of the people present were from the Zhao family.
Back then, Zhao Jian's incident had caused quite a stir, so they had heard about it.
But didn't Zhao Jian die in the hands of an outsider?
Oh, right, Zhao Zifei just said that Miss Ya was also an outsider.
But no one believed him completely.
Some even spoke up to defend her, "Nonsense! Miss Ya saved the lives of those children, how could she be a murderer? "
"Yes! And the Elders said that she's the niece of the late madam, not an outsider at all. I don't think you're good people! "
Zhao Zifei shouted at them angrily, "You've all been deceived by her! She's buying people's hearts! "
But no one believed it.
After all, they had seen Lin Mengya's behavior. Such a person was clearly the best person in the world, with a heart like Buddha. How could she be a murderer?
Under the condemnation of the crowd, Madam Duan began to put on her weak and pitiful look again.
"I know how you're feeling now. In fact, when we first heard the news, we didn't believe it either."
Her attitude always made it easier for her to win the favor of others.
The crowd's attitude also softened, while Madam Duan looked at her with a sad face.
"Although I didn't have the chance to meet the late madam, I have heard some things about her family over the years. I heard that the late madam has no other siblings except for her two elder brothers.
And I also heard that the eldest daughter of the late madam's second brother is about the same age as Zhao Ziyan. And Miss Ya should be at least in her early twenties this year, right? "
Lin Mengya didn't expect that Madam Duan knew so much about Aunt Fang's family.
Such a person would never give her a chance to refute.
But the crowd didn't know, and instead defended her, "Didn't the late madam have an elder brother? Maybe Miss Ya is the daughter of the late madam's elder brother? "
"That's what I thought at first, but …"
Madam Duan deliberately dragged out the last word, and looked at Lin Mengya with a teasing look.
"The late madam's elder brother died of illness when he was in his teens. At that time, he didn't have a wife and children, so he didn't have any offspring. All the elders who are familiar with the Fang family know about this. "
"Miss Ya, which branch of the Fang family are you related to? Why don't you tell us, lest we misunderstand you? "
The people around didn't know that this was Madam Duan's trick, and they even tried to persuade her.
"Yes, Miss Ya, just tell us. We believe you. They must have framed you!"
Facing the ardent and trusting eyes of the crowd, Lin Mengya couldn't say anything.
Since they came to her, it was obvious that they already had some solid evidence.
He was afraid that they really did have some evidence on the Fang Clan.
Or it might be someone who was familiar with the Fang family.
So no matter what excuse she used, they could expose her lie at any time.
"What? Your glib tongue doesn't work now? That's right, a sneaky guy like you who doesn't dare to show your real face must have evil intentions, and you want to take the opportunity to harm the Zhao family! "
Zhao Xun felt that her life was in her hands, and her smile became more savage.
In the face of the three people's aggression, Lin Mengya didn't retreat, nor did she let Elder Zhao stand up for her.
She curled her lips, smiled, and then took off the veil on her face.
"It seems that I have to tell you the truth now."
She didn't ask Cai Ru to tell the truth when she was facing the Zhao family members and those uncles.
Because they didn't hear her voice before, and they didn't know that she had disguised herself.
But the three people in front of her were different.
"You, you're a mute slave!" Zhao Zifei pointed at her and said in surprise.
Lin Mengya glanced at him disdainfully.
"I'm not a mute slave. No one in this world is qualified to make me a slave."
Since she had been exposed, there was no need for her to pretend.
In the past, although she was not easy to approach, she was not as sharp and arrogant as she was now.
Madam Duan's eyes darkened.
She remembered that she had sent her there before.
"Did she escape?"
"Men, arrest this murderer!"
Zhao Xun shouted, and the people behind him were about to step forward.
Unexpectedly, after a while, they were knocked down to the ground by a group of well-dressed guards who seemed to have descended from the sky.
"You, you really want to harm us! I'm warning you, if you dare to hurt me, the Zhao family will make you die a horrible death! "
Zhao Xun panicked and tried to threaten her with the Zhao family.
But Lin Mengya felt that this person was either too childish, or his brain had been eaten by a dog.
"Didn't you say that I've already killed a young master of the Zhao family? Even if I were to kill you today, I would still be guilty, wouldn't I? "" That's right. Don't you think so? "
Her arrogance, which was no longer concealed, overwhelmed the three people in an instant.
They secretly gritted their teeth, and at this moment, they couldn't wait to get rid of her.
Madam Duan was more scheming than they were.
"Everyone heard it. She admitted that she is a murderer! Everyone, keep your eyes open, and don't be fooled by her again! "
The onlookers couldn't accept the reality for a while.
They couldn't understand how the miracle-working doctor who had saved them from trouble had become a murderer wanted by the Zhao family in the blink of an eye.
