Uncle Zhao raised his eyelids, his face dark with a faint smile.
"I didn't do anything evil, so of course I can sleep. But Zhao Laosi, you have to be careful. You're old and weak. Who knows when a vengeful spirit will come to claim your life. "
"You!"
Uncle Zhao was angered to death by her. He stared at her as if he wanted to eat her alive.
"You only know how to boast a little, that's all."
She had always been indifferent when facing Uncle Zhao's threats.
"Unless I'm dead, I won't listen to anyone with this mouth of mine. But you're old now. Who knows when you'll make me die of anger. So you'd better be polite to me, or you'll lose your life. "
Lin Mengya's mouth was used to teach Uncle Zhao a lesson.
As soon as she finished speaking, the man's face darkened a few degrees.
But Uncle Zhao quickly controlled his emotions. Lin Mengya naturally knew that this man was much more difficult to deal with than Zhao Xun.
Both of them were wary of each other. At the same time, they were thinking about how to make the other party fall into their own trap.
"It's meaningless for the two of us to bicker here. I know that your Gong Clan is a big clan and has a lot of assets. Naturally, you have the qualifications to look down on us. However, our aboriginals have also stood tall for a thousand years and have our own uniqueness. I think we don't have to be so hostile. It's better for us to live in harmony. "
Lin Mengya snorted.
"Then why don't you tell me how to live in harmony between us?"
Uncle Zhao thought for a moment and said, "No matter who killed Zhao Jian, in the eyes of the Zhao family, Master Gong has something to do with it. How about this, Master Gong just needs to give us a satisfactory explanation. As for the others, I'll deal with them. How about that? "
Lin Mengya thought that this old man was really cunning.
To put it bluntly, he wanted to use the prescription in her hands in exchange for the Zhao family not to pursue the matter.
Not to mention that Zhao Jian's death had nothing to do with her.
Even if she really did kill him, saying so was tantamount to admitting her guilt and giving others something to use against her.
Lin Mengya had never made such a losing deal in her life.
"No."
She flatly refused, and her attitude was firm.
"I didn't kill him at all. If you want to cooperate with me, you have to investigate the true cause of his death and prove my innocence."
"You're making things difficult for me." Uncle Zhao's frown deepened.
"Gong Family Head, you have to recognize your current situation. If this matter is reported to the Elders Guild, no matter what the reason is, the Elders Guild will not negotiate with you. "
But Lin Mengya smiled nonchalantly.
"If they find out, it'll just be one more person plotting against my Gong family. My Gong family is rich, but we are not fools. Anyone who wants to take advantage of us will have to first see if they have the ability to do so. "
She was completely impervious to everything.
Uncle Zhao gradually lost his patience.
This Gong Family was really too arrogant. Did she really think that he had no way to deal with her?
His face turned cold, and there was a hint of coldness in it.
"There's no room for negotiation?"
It was like an ultimatum. Lin Mengya felt that there was something wrong with this person, but she still did not relent.
"Unless you find out the truth and make it public, that will be the basis of our cooperation."
This time, Uncle Zhao was not angered by her and walked away.
He looked at her strangely, and the way he looked at her made her very uncomfortable. It was as if she was not a person, but an inanimate object.
An inanimate object.
"Gong Family Head, do you know that excessive rigidity is easy to break? This old man's words are completely out of consideration for you. If you don't appreciate my kindness, then there's no room for negotiation. "
She could tell that this was not just a warning.
His attitude was arrogant, but also a little disdainful.
It was as if he was laughing at her for overestimating herself, as if he could easily decide her life or death.
She was not used to this kind of feeling.
But she was not familiar with the methods of the aboriginals. It seemed that he was really going to use some extreme methods.
Countless thoughts spun in her mind. Finally, she chose to be stubborn to the end.
"If that's the case, then you can wait for the Gong family to meet in arms."
Her eyes were firm and fearless.
This time, Uncle Zhao did not continue to bicker with her in exasperation. Instead, he let out a cold sigh.
"Forget it. This is your own choice. You can't blame others."
She was sensitive enough to smell a hint of danger from Uncle Zhao's tone.
But she believed in herself, and she believed in her husband and Elder Zhao even more.
They would never let her come to any harm.
The next day, Zhao Yixuan thought about it and felt that he still had to see Lin Mengya.
But to his surprise, when he went to the backyard, he was told that Uncle Zhao had taken her away early in the morning.
"Taken away? Why didn't you stop him? "
A deep furrow appeared between his brows.
The housekeeper felt strange.
"You said that Fourth Elder Zhao is not an outsider and asked us to serve him carefully. So I didn't stop him. "
"That was in the past!" Zhao Yixuan stared at the housekeeper with dissatisfaction.
"From now on, in this mansion, except for my words, no one else counts."
The housekeeper agreed. But it was too late.
Zhao Yixuan had no time to argue with them. He got on his horse and planned to chase after them.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Fang Rao.
"It's useless for you to go now. They won't let her go."
Elder Zhao also knew this, but he was still suppressing his anger in his heart.
He explained to his wife in a gentle voice, "No matter what, she is the savior of those children. Not to mention that she has many lives in her hands. If I go, those guys won't take action for fear of harming the innocent. "
But Fang Rao still did not let him go.
"That girl has her own ideas. I have a feeling that she let them take her away on purpose."
Compared to the guilty Zhao Yixuan, Fang Rao obviously knew Lin Mengya's temper better.
That girl had many masters around her. If she really did not want to go, no one would be able to take her away.
Zhao Yixuan was not as confident as she was.
After comforting her, he still insisted on going.
Fang Rao was helpless. Finally, she got on her horse and wanted to go with him.
"Madam, what are you doing?"
Zhao Yixuan was a little surprised.
"I'm afraid that your impulsiveness will ruin Miss Ya's plan."
Although Fang Rao was dressed in a dusty outfit and was not as elegant as before, Zhao Yixuan still could not take his eyes off her.
"Are you worried about me, Madam?"
"I just don't want Miss Ya's efforts to go to waste." Fang Rao said calmly.
A smile crept up Zhao Yixuan's mouth uncontrollably.
Even the heavy worries in his heart seemed to have lightened a lot.
"Well, if that's the case, let's go together!"
He patted the horse hard and the two rushed out of the back door.
But not long after, another figure came out of the stable which should be empty. He stared gloomily at the two people who had gone far away.
Just as Lady Ya left, another woman with an ordinary appearance but very powerful methods came in.
He was too far away just now, so he didn't hear what the two of them said.
However, that woman was able to share a horse with Zhao Yixuan, and it was likely that his mother could no longer be the mistress of the Zhao family.
Zhao Zifei kicked the fodder irritably.
He had to get everything from the Zhao Family!
Lin Mengya closed her eyes gently and the swaying horse carriage finally stopped.
The map in her mind showed that she had been brought by Uncle Zhao and his men to the farm where Long Tianhao had recuperated.
But this time, they did not enter from the back door, but from the front door which was a little further away.
Outside, there were rustling footsteps and the sound of people talking in low voices.
Finally, like a sack, she was carried to a house.
Fortunately, this group of people were afraid of startling her, so they carried her gently.
She could feel the soft bedding under her body and smell the lingering smell of medicine in the air.
This smell, isn't it a medicine for women?
Just when she was puzzled, she suddenly heard someone talking in a low voice.
"Is this the newcomer that Master brought back? She looks okay, but she's a little too skinny. She's not easy to give birth to. "
Lin Mengya was speechless.
Could the disgust in their tone be any more obvious?
And what did they mean by she was not easy to give birth to?
She didn't live just to give birth. Besides, she not only gave birth to one, but also had another in her belly.
"Don't touch her first. Master has other uses for her."
The other voice was much more authoritative. It sounded like the voice of someone in charge.
The previous one immediately agreed.
Then, she felt people going in and out of the room to take things.
It took about half an hour before they stopped.
After making sure that there was no one else in the room except her, she opened her eyes.
She was in a fairly spacious room.
Although the decoration was simple, she could tell that it was for a woman to live in.
She even saw a half-old cradle beside the bed.
What was going on?
That old guy used knockout incense on her in the early morning and then brought her here with a horse carriage. In the end, he just let her be imprisoned in another place?
She couldn't believe that that person would be so kind.
She was afraid that he wanted to bring her to his territory so that he could think of a way to deal with her.
Not long after, the door was opened again.
She immediately squinted her eyes and adjusted her breathing, pretending that she was still unconscious.
"Put the incense here. Remember to use more this time. Master said that he wanted her to be obedient."
It was a young woman dressed like a married woman.
Behind her were two women who were about the same age as her, but dressed more plainly.
They deftly placed a dragon head incense burner on the round table not far from her. Then, they took out a small black round box.
