For example, among the servants in the former residence, other than the slaves they bought from various places, there were actually some Zhao family members who volunteered to work in the residence.
Firstly, Auntie Fang couldn't completely trust this group of people. Secondly, after they left, this group of people would still stay here.
Therefore, no matter what their relationship was before, from now on, Aunt Fang would treat them as outsiders.
Although some people might find it strange, this was a good way to protect both sides.
As for the remaining people, except for a few who were loyal and devoted, they would remain loyal no matter how Aunt Fang and Uncle Huo's identities changed.
The remaining people were the slaves who had signed contracts to sell themselves.
Strictly speaking, although they belonged to the aboriginals, for various reasons, they were also Aunt Fang's personal property.
Aunt Fang might be tolerant and loving to her, but deep down, she was still a traditional person.
At the very least, she wouldn't treat these people as her employees like Lin Mengya.
Therefore, if these people were traitors, she definitely wouldn't let them off.
Lin Mengya didn't need to worry about the follow-up of this matter.
She had already been delayed for some time, so when she left, she hurriedly left through the back door.
However, she didn't expect to meet a "kindred spirit" as soon as she slipped out.
That person skillfully climbed out from the back wall just as she opened the back door and poked her head out to look around.
Their eyes met, and they awkwardly looked at each other.
One was standing inside the door, while the other was straddling the wall.
Although the way they went out was different, their actions were equally sneaky.
Lin Mengya frowned and wondered if her luck was really so good that she could meet a thief twice.
However, the one on the wall was obviously more daring.
"Hey, so the back door was open! If I had known, I wouldn't have spent so much effort climbing the wall! "
Lin Mengya held the door bolt tightly.
She didn't want him to treat her as one of them.
Just as she was about to call for help, the other party had already landed lightly.
Judging from his skills, he was most likely a habitual thief!
"Miss, don't misunderstand. I'm not a bad person."
The person probably knew what she was planning to do, so he lowered his voice and explained to her.
"Don't come any closer. If you come any closer, I'll call for help!"
"Hey! Don't shout! I'm really not a bad person. I just don't want to be locked up anymore. "
Lin Mengya didn't see his face clearly because he was at a high place with his back to the light.
Now, the person was right in front of him. Although his looks were not bad, the smile on the corner of his mouth instantly softened his sense of distance.
Unfortunately, the person standing in front of him was Lin Mengya.
She was a woman who fell into a pile of handsome men and suffered from beauty attacks every day.
Ordinary beauty had long lost its allure in her eyes.
If even a roadside wildflower could bewitch her eyes, not to mention her man, even her brothers would be so angry that they would say that she was blind.
"Stay where you are and don't take another step!"
The man was very obedient, but his eyes were full of curiosity as he looked at her.
"Alright, alright, I won't go over. Miss, to be honest, we are both people who have fallen into the same predicament. To be able to meet you under such circumstances, it can be considered fate.
I think we're quite fated, don't you think? "
Pooh!
She would never be fated with a thief!
"Don't flatter yourself. I'm not like you who comes to someone's house to steal things in broad daylight.
You'd better not have any crooked ideas. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't have a good time! "
The man wasn't afraid at all.
The smile on his face became brighter.
"So you're not a thief!"
"Of course I'm not a thief! Yes, have you ever seen a thief who could come out from the back door openly? "
Lin Mengya kept looking inside as she dealt with the man.
She was not afraid of him.
After a while, the people who were waiting for her would definitely notice that something was wrong, and those who had been sent away by her in the backyard would also come back.
At that time, this guy would never be able to escape.
"So you're a member of this family?"
Unexpectedly, not only was the man not scared, but he was also interested.
He bent down and tried to get closer to her, but his voice was full of excitement.
"Then have you seen the master of the Gong family? What does she look like? Is she really as beautiful as the rumors say? "
Ou Huo!
Lin Mengya's heart skipped a beat. She didn't expect to be able to eat melon seeds.
"Why are you asking this? Don't tell me that you want to harm her? "
All the more she couldn't expose her identity!
Really, if she had known earlier, she wouldn't have kept the people in the backyard so clean.
The man squinted his long eyes and said as if he was familiar with her, "Sigh, I'm just curious!
You know, we don't see many outsiders in the entire year. I'm sick of looking at those old faces every day.
I heard that the master of the Gong family is so beautiful that even the most beautiful girl in the aboriginals can't compare to her. So, I'm itching to see something new.
Miss, since we're fated to meet, why don't you tell me about it? "
See something new?
Did he think she was a panda?
Her face immediately darkened, and she rejected him dryly.
"I don't know!"
"Tell me, tell me!"
The man pestered her persistently. "Could it be that she's actually very ugly? That's bad! "
Looking at the man's pure expression, Lin Mengya felt a little angry.
What did it have to do with him whether she was beautiful or not?
She rolled her eyes unhappily. "She's not going to marry you, so why are you worrying? I'm warning you, you'd better obediently surrender. Otherwise, my madam will definitely punish you severely! "
Lin Mengya's extraordinary hearing had already heard the sound of a carriage coming from the entrance of the alley.
The person who was waiting for her had arrived!
That person's reaction wasn't slow either. Although he was one step behind her, when he appeared at the entrance of the alley, he also understood that this lass was just stalling for time.
"You're a good lass! You're quite smart! "
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya instantly jumped back into the courtyard and closed the door.
"Lass your sister! I'm your grandaunt! "
Her actions always took the initiative.
If she had been a few seconds late, the other party's next move would have been to grab her.
However, she was too fast. That person's actions missed, but he didn't continue fighting. He didn't even look at his pursuers and rushed forward.
The commotion outside wasn't loud, but it was enough for her to hear clearly.
That person must have run away, and the person who was waiting for her immediately chased after her.
She quietly stuck to the door until the commotion outside completely disappeared, then she opened the door and slipped out.
Fortunately, she had changed her face to cover her tracks today. Otherwise, if the person recognized her as Gong Ya, she would be in big trouble.
Lin Mengya arrived at the rice shop as fast as she could.
To be honest, she was also very puzzled.
She had never seen this person before, but he had been concerned about how she looked like, as if he was very concerned about this matter.
She touched her face. It wasn't that she was narcissistic, but she felt that with her identity as the head of the Gong family, there would be many people who would come forward to marry her.
Even if she looked like she didn't have any money, there would still be many people who would come forward to marry her.
Those people would only care about whether she had enough money in her pocket, and not whether her purse was exquisite or not.
What a strange person!
She shook her head and forgot about this little episode at the back of her mind.
Today, she had to continue to observe the patients who had regained consciousness, and at the same time, she had to investigate the differences between these people.
If she really wanted to help these people, then she should at least let them have the right to choose.
Instead of being used as a tool, living without dignity.

"Tut, so troublesome!"
Yue Zhengzitan shook his hands and hid in a shabby empty house.
He really had a bad start.
Last night, he really couldn't suppress his curiosity, and wanted to sneak into the Zhao Mansion to see his future sister-in-law's face.
Unexpectedly, he met the Zhao Family guards who were chasing the thief on the way.
At that time, he also had a plan, which was to pretend to be the thief's accomplice and be taken into the mansion.
This actually saved him a lot of trouble.
Moreover, although Zhao Yixuan and his wife were not particularly reasonable, at least they were not that unreasonable.
At that time, as long as he told the truth, he could be released — after all, he was really not the thief's accomplice.
But unexpectedly, something went wrong in the middle of the plan.
The hidden traitor in the Zhao Mansion actually wanted to kill him in the middle of the night.
He casually killed the man and ran out to look for him without anyone noticing.
He didn't expect that the master of the Gong Family was really cautious, and there were many top masters around him.
He didn't want to alert the enemy, so he wanted to leave before others found the body of the traitor.
But he didn't expect to meet such a little girl.
Tut, thinking back, although the other party's appearance was not bad, she had developed quite well. With just one look, he knew that the other party was probably a "big girl".
It was just that this big girl was a bit tricky, just meeting face to face, she already schemed against him.
It seemed that, he really underestimated the enemy.
Yue Zhengzitan struggled to get rid of the pursuers.
After returning to his residence, Lin Feng, who was close to him, came to greet him.
"Second Young Master, why are you injured? I will immediately go get medicine for you, you should go rest first! "
Lin Feng frowned slightly, although he was worried, the expression on his face was just that.
Yue Zhengzitan still had the mood to tease him.
"You say, why did my big brother want to give you to me? I wonder when you'll be able to show more expressions on that face of yours.
You say, on the day I die, will you still be frowning?
Ouch — — it hurts! "
Lin Feng raised his head and glanced at his young master.
"Young Master can live to a hundred years old, it's Lin Feng's incompetence, please punish me."
Yue Zhengzitan was just joking.
"I didn't say anything else, do you think I will punish you because you don't know how to laugh or cry?"
His wound was on his left arm.
It wasn't serious, he was just accidentally scratched by the other party's weapon, even if he didn't need to use medicine.
But Lin Feng was like facing a great enemy.
"Young Master, there's poison on this wound!"
Yue Zhengzitan frowned, and turned his head to look at the wound as if nothing had happened.
The wound didn't change color, but the strange thing was that from the time he was injured until now, the wound should at least stop bleeding.
But now, the little finger sized wound was still gushing blood.
"Oh, interesting!"
He curled his lips and smiled playfully.
