Tonight, the Zhao family was particularly lively.
If it weren't for the wrong timing, Lin Mengya and Aunt Fang would like to each grab a handful of melon seeds and listen to Cai Ru's vivid broadcast of the Fang family's war.
"Master, you didn't see it. Zhao Yongcai's mother was someone who would not shed a tear until she saw the coffin. Zhao Yongcai had already overturned her, but she still refused to admit it. She even said that all of this was planned by Zhao Xiaodie and her.
I've been with you for so many years, and I've seen the world. But this is the first time I've seen such a shameless person! "
Lin Mengya felt a little regretful.
If she had known that the Zhao family was so strong, she would have packed up all the things she had investigated and thrown them to them.
At that time, the Zhao family must have argued even more fiercely.
But Aunt Fang still felt angry.
"Didn't you say that you found something interesting before? Why don't you tell them so that the evil woman of the Zhao family will suffer? "
Lin Mengya gently patted the pastry crumbs off her fingertips.
"How can I let her get away with it this time? But don't worry, the evil things that the woman of the Zhao family has done are not only against Zhao Xiaodie. "
To be honest, Lin Mengya sometimes felt that Zhao Yongcai's mother was really a talent in some aspects.
But her current purpose was not just to vent Zhao Xiaodie's anger.
"By the way, is there any news from Uncle Huo?" She asked.
Aunt Fang muttered discontentedly, "It's better if there is no news. I think it's better for him to die outside!"
Oh, was this the mutual love of a middle-aged couple?
It was a little hard for her to accept!
"But before Uncle Huo left, didn't he say that the Elders would send someone here soon? Anyway, we've been waiting for so long, and we don't know when they will arrive. "
Aunt Fang, on the other hand, was confident. "Maybe their people have already snuck in. I know the style of those old guys too well. Humph! They think they can control the whole situation and play everyone in the palm of their hands.
Sooner or later, I'll make them pay! "
Aunt Fang had a grudge against the Elders.
Uncle Huo replaced Zhao Yixuan.
Such a big matter, if it was just Zhao Laosi, how could it be hidden for so many years?
If it weren't for Lin Mengya and Uncle Huo, Aunt Fang and Uncle Huo wouldn't acknowledge each other until they died.
Moreover, Uncle Huo had been in charge of the Merchant Union of the Elders Guild all these years. How many benefits had he created for the Elders Guild?
It would be a lie if they said they didn't know anything!
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes and picked up the cup of hot milk beside her.
"Oh? I just don't know if they've managed to find out what they're looking for. "
If they were to come, then they should come openly. If they were to be so sneaky, then she would be the one to blame!
At this moment, many unfamiliar faces had suddenly appeared in the small city where the Zhao Mansion resided.
Judging from their attire, they looked like traveling merchants.
This was very common in the ancient race. After all, although the ancient race was generally closed off to the outside world, it was impossible for them to not need the things of the outside world.
Moreover, they couldn't be self-sufficient in some things, so they needed caravans to sell them to the outside world and then sell them in the territories of the various families.
Towards such traveling merchants, the various clans would usually turn a blind eye.
After all, no one would reject good things that could improve their quality of life.
These people were very good at pretending and had indeed brought a lot of things with them.
However, the moment they appeared, they were targeted.
"It can't be? They just swaggered in like that? Do they think we're all blind? "
Lin Mengya asked from the depths of her soul.
The people under her command were also hiding.
They were experts in tracking and gathering information.
If these people were to make a move, they wouldn't be able to leave any traces behind. At the very least, they wouldn't be easily seen through.
However, these aboriginals had really broadened her horizons.
Could it be that they thought she was blind?
Lin Mengya felt that her eyesight in version 1.0 had been insulted!
"It could also be that they want to hide the real spies. I've already instructed people to keep a close eye on their whereabouts. This time, I'm afraid they won't be able to return! "
The look in Aunt Fang's eyes was ice-cold.
Anyone who had been fooled for so many years would definitely be filled with fear and even want to take revenge.
Lin Mengya didn't stop Aunt Fang, but she wanted to know who was coming.
If it was the Elders Guild, she wouldn't be polite.
However, if it was just a few cannon fodder who were here to spy on the military, she didn't even want to show up.
She wanted to preserve her strength. It would be best if she could firmly occupy a position of power in the confrontation with the Elders Guild.
Otherwise, the Elders Guild would definitely take the opportunity to demand an exorbitant price. Even a small Zhang Laosi was thinking about how to annex the Gong family's wealth, let alone others.
She had this problem. She couldn't afford to be at a disadvantage, especially when it came to this kind of unnecessary loss. She didn't want to suffer at all!
Very soon, these traveling merchants filled the streets and alleys of the city.
In addition to doing business, they would chat and gather information about the Zhao family.
Of course, Lin Mengya didn't deliberately ask them to keep their mouths shut.
Moreover, the things that she had done were all good things that could be made public. Even the most demanding person wouldn't be able to find any fault with her.
In the face of the Zhao family's crisis, she had contributed both manpower and effort.
Who could say anything about her?
Could they say that she had sacrificed herself for others? Therefore, they wanted to punish her for her sins?
Haha, then she would be scolded to death by those who had benefited from her before!
That was what Pei Qianji was thinking now.
"Master, this is what we found out. Everyone in the Zhao family said that Master Gong is a good person and almost no one said anything bad about her.
However, one family said that she had abducted their cousin-in-law and that she was using Master Gong's power to bully their family. "
Pei Qianji's face was gloomy.
He had thought that this matter would be very simple.
Therefore, he didn't bring the Pei family's elites. Instead, he had people casually ask around so that he could catch them.
But what did he hear?
Let's not talk about living Bodhisattva and true Guanyin.
She was an outsider. How did she win people's hearts?
Could it be that the Zhao family already had ulterior motives and wanted to be expelled from the aboriginals like the Gong family?
"Tell me in detail what exactly happened."
His expression wasn't very good. The person who came to report this time wasn't a quick-witted person. He immediately revealed the dirty linen of Zhao Yongcai's family.
The more he listened, the worse Pei Qianji's expression became.
"You shut up! I asked you to find out what they did wrong, but you used these trivial matters to fool me!
Besides, are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid? Zhao Yongcai's family is clearly in the wrong. Gong Ya has gained the upper hand because of this and won people's hearts! "
He felt like he was going to die from anger.
Where did this idiot come from? Hurry up and get lost!
Fortunately, although his subordinate was stupid, he was still smart for once when he was on the verge of being chased away.
"Master, I feel that there is still room for us to make use of this matter!"
This time, Pei Qianji couldn't even be bothered to look at him.
That subordinate was also afraid of death. He quickly said in a flattering manner, "No matter what, this is an internal matter of the aboriginals. She is an outsider and she wants to interfere.
That's not right!
Maybe she has ulterior motives. That's why she stirred up a small matter to this extent.
Besides, even if the Zhao family wants to seek justice, with you around, how can an outsider like her have a chance? "
It had to be said that being unemployed made people witty.
He was so close to kicking this small fry out of the Pei family's master's door.
But the unexpected turn of events had provided Pei Qianji with an entry point.
"There is still room for maneuver in this matter."
Pei Qianji stroked his beard and thought for a while.
"Go and bring this Zhao family member back to me. I want to investigate this personally."
"Yes, I'll go right now!"
Heh, the Zhao family, the Gong family, anyone who wanted to stop Pei Qianji from dominating the aboriginals would be eliminated by him!
The aboriginals belonged to the Pei family!
Just as night fell, Xue Lanfang quietly slipped out from the back door.
"Big Brother, where are you?"
She lowered her voice and looked around.
A hand reached out from behind her, covered her mouth, and dragged her to the back alley.
"Don't shout! It's me. "
She didn't know what the man's hand was holding, but the fishy smell almost made her faint.
Fortunately, in her panic, she recognized that person's voice.
It was the person who had secretly said that he could help her in the morning!
Xue Lanfang immediately softened her body and broke free from the man's hand. She sobbed and said, "I knew that Big Brother would definitely help us. Sob sob, Big Brother, my second aunt is about to be beaten to death by them. Also, I heard that they were discussing selling me out. I'm a lady from a good family. I can't stand such humiliation! "
Xue Lanfang wanted to portray herself as a pitiful little girl.
But the fact that she could sneak out meant that the Zhao family didn't restrict her freedom.
Moreover, a lady from a good family would never come out in the middle of the night to have a private rendezvous with a man she had only known for less than a day.
Only a fool would believe her words.
"Miss, don't be afraid! To tell you the truth, my master will definitely be able to help you! Come with me now, I'll bring you to see my master! "
A fool, no, a foolish subordinate of the Pei family was just short of patting his chest and assuring her.
Fortunately, Xue Lanfang still had some brains.
She was a young lady, so she couldn't really leave with someone without knowing the reason behind it.
But she still didn't want to give up. She could only sob and ask, "Really? Big Brother, you're not lying to me right? "
Saying that, she shook her head again.
"No! I can't go with you. I can't give you any trouble. You don't know that the evil person is in cahoots with the Zhao family. I heard that the Zhao family's Elder and Madam have been bewitched by her. How would anyone believe the words of a weak lady like me? "
Pei family's foolish subordinate didn't seem to mind at all.
Looking left and right, he lowered his voice to reveal the situation to Xue Lanfang.
"You don't need to be afraid! My master is a big shot. Even Elder Zhao can only listen obediently in front of my master. Don't worry and follow me. This matter, my master will definitely be able to help you. "
"What? Your master isn't even afraid of Elder Zhao? "
Xue Lanfang's eyes widened.
Was this person bragging?
The reason why she wanted to marry her cousin so desperately was because she knew that this place was different from her home.
What kind of person was Elder Zhao? That was an Elder with a bright future in the Elder's Association. She came here because she wanted to live a better life!
Now, why was her luck so good that she could actually meet someone who was even more powerful than Elder Zhao?
For a moment, her mind started to work again.
