This time, even Aunt Fang was confused.
As the saying goes, every debt has its debtor.
The Pei Family would never spend so much effort to deal with the Zhao Family, which had nothing to do with them.
There must be some inside story that they didn't know.
She was thinking about how to find a suitable opportunity to trick the Master of the Pei Family.
Unexpectedly, they were even more impatient than she was.
The two Old Masters of the Zhao Family, who didn't dare to come to the door, came again after a long time.
But this time, they were obviously in the right.
"Fang Rao, for the sake of your husband, we took the trouble to deal with the Master of the Pei Family for so many days.
No matter what, you have to give us and the Pei Family an explanation today. Otherwise, we can't protect you even if we want to. "
Fang Rao snorted at their words.
"I'm afraid that my two uncles are mistaken, right? Even if Zhao Xiaodie has to give an explanation, it has nothing to do with the Pei Family.
Anyway, Xiaodie is a member of the Zhao Family. Uncles, you really have a heart of stone. You can't wait to punish your family! "
How could the two old geezers not understand that Fang Rao was mocking them?
Immediately, both of their expressions darkened.
In their eyes, Fang Rao was just a junior, and an outsider.
Since their nephew was not here, they should support the Zhao Mansion for him instead of listening to a woman's words.
After thinking this through, the two of them immediately straightened their backs, clearly not putting Fang Rao in their eyes.
"You're so old, but you're still so immature. Forget it, we're magnanimous and won't argue with you. We must take Zhao Xiaodie away today.
Men, go and bring him out. "
Old Master Zhao was about to bring people forward when Fang Rao took a step back and blocked the door.
"No, no one is allowed to take her away today!"
Who would have thought that Third Elder Zhao's character would be so bad that he would directly push Fang Rao?
It happened so suddenly that Fang Rao didn't have time to react. She fell backward instantly.
Just as she was about to fall to the ground, a pair of hands held her firmly.
"The actions of the elders of the Zhao Family have really broadened my horizons. As an uncle, he personally taught his niece-in-law a lesson. If word of this gets out, I want to see if the Zhao Family still has any face left."
The low, hoarse voice was clear and cold. The woman who answered the voice had a picturesque appearance. Her figure was delicate, but her aura was extremely strong.
Even the two elders of the Zhao Family couldn't help but feel apprehensive. In the blink of an eye, Lin Mengran had already instructed Cai Ru to help Aunt Fang up.
"It's not difficult for the two of you to take Zhao Xiaodie away, but she's my patient now. I care about my reputation the most in my life. If something happens to her because of the two of you, others will think that I, Gong Ya, am not good at medicine.
Wasn't Patriarch Pei anxious to see Zhao Xiaodie? Then I'll go with her. In the future, if people ask, you can be a witness to prove that I, Gong Ya, am not lacking in medical skills. Are the two of you satisfied? "
The two old masters were stunned. They did not expect that Lin Mengya would take the initiative to stand up for an unknown Zhao Xiaodie.
But from the bottom of their hearts, they did not want Lin Mengya to get involved.
After all, even the Pei Family would be tempted by the Gong Family's big piece of meat.
But they did not dare to hide it.
Pei Qianji, that old fellow, was very slippery. In the past, every time he visited the aboriginals, he was just going through the motions.
But this time, not only did he come personally, but he also used Xue Lanfang's name to make things difficult for the Zhao Family.
The cause and effect of this must have something to do with Gong Ya.
Relationship.
The two of them quickly communicated with their eyes.
In the end, it was Grandpa Zhao who spoke reluctantly.
"If Patriarch Gong is willing to go with us, that's exactly what we want. But …"
"But what?"
Lin Mengya frowned slightly, looking very impatient.
"Get this straight. I saved Zhao Xiaodie's life. Now that I've saved someone from the Zhao Family, not only are you not grateful to me, but you also want to make demands of me. Don't you think that you're pushing your luck?"
Grandpa Zhao was a little annoyed.
He wanted to say, "Who asked me to save her?"
But he did not dare to. Because once he said that, the Zhao Family would definitely be embarrassed.
People outside would definitely say that he was ungrateful and so on.
After holding it in for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said shamelessly, "After all, Patriarch Gong still owes the Zhao Family a life. I'm not asking for much. As long as Patriarch Gong agrees, no matter how much you give Patriarch Pei, you will only give us one-tenth … no, one-hundredth!"
In the face of the Pei Family, Grandpa Zhao had no choice but to give in.
But he was not willing to get nothing, so he could only use the incident with Zhao Jian to make such a shameless demand.
Lin Mengya was a little angry, but her smile became brighter.
"Are you sure you only want one-hundredth? After working so hard, are you willing to let someone else cut you off halfway? "
Shameless to the extreme!
Bah! Did he think that she would care about the Pei Family? That was why she couldn't wait to share the benefits?
Did he think that the Gong Family was dead?
However, Great Grandfather Zhao took it seriously and even confided in her with sincerity and earnestness.
"I don't want to either. But who asked us to be suppressed by the Pei Family?
Don't worry, since I've gotten benefits from you, we're on the same side. I'll definitely speak up for you. "
She didn't care!
Let them dream about it!
Lin Mengya's face suddenly turned cold.
"Baisu, invite Zhao Xiaodie over. Aunt Fang can rest at home.
I'll bring her back the way I brought her out. "
As for the Pei Family?
Ha! They were nothing in her eyes.
Two carriages stopped at the temporary shelter of the Pei Family.
The two old masters of the Zhao Family hurriedly got off the carriage and went to Patriarch Pei to curry favor.
In the carriage behind them, Zhao Xiaodie kept trembling.
"Don't be afraid. When we get there, just tell the truth."
Lin Mengya patted her hand and comforted her.
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaodie, who had her head lowered, trembled even more.
Lin Mengya and Aunt Fang had told her the whole story.
She thought that she was afraid, but who knew that the first thing Zhao Xiaodie said was — "She's lying! How could I do such an inhumane thing! I'm going to confront her and ask her why she's slandering me! "
Seeing that she was so agitated that her eyes were red with anger, Lin Mengya felt half relieved.
At least, Zhao Xiaodie was angry and not just afraid.
There was still hope.
"We all know that Xue Lanfang's matter has nothing to do with you, so you can confidently tell everyone that you didn't do it."
"But, but will they believe it?"
Zhao Xiaodie showed a sad and bitter smile.
"Once upon a time,
When I was at home, Grandma … His mother had been incited by Xue Lanfang time and time again, and she had poured all the dirty water on me.
I've said countless times that I didn't do it. I'm innocent. But every time, whether it's him or his parents, they all believe Xue Lanfang's words. I'm afraid … "
To be honest, Lin Mengya guessed that Master Pei should know the truth.
In other words, he would not believe Zhao Xiaodie's words.
But she didn't want to discourage Zhao Xiaodie.
"It doesn't matter whether others believe it or not. The most important thing is that you know you didn't do it and that you're innocent.
Leave the rest to me. I'll prove that she's lying and slandering you. "
Zhao Xiaodie's eyes lit up, revealing a precious hope.
But the light was so little, like a spark that was about to go out, flickering. It was in danger of completely extinguishing at any time and falling into darkness.
"Ya, Miss Ya, do you really, really believe me?"
"I believe you."
She answered with finality.
"Don't think too much. I'm here for everything."
She patted Zhao Xiaodie's hand again, and the latter's mood had eased a lot.
At this time, a voice came from outside.
"My family head invites you in. Gong family head, please alight from the carriage."
Lin Mengya raised the corner of her mouth and jumped off the carriage with a sneer.
Master Pei, right?
She wanted to see what this old fox was going to do today!
The Pei Family's temporary residence was a house specially built for guests in the Zhao Mansion.
Although it was not very luxurious, it was better than comfort and tranquility.
Someone led Lin Mengya, Zhao Xiaodie, and her two maids across the yard to the main hall, but did not directly invite them in.
"Please wait here for a while, I'll inform my master."
Lin Mengya looked at the door coldly.
How arrogant he was! Did he think that she was a junior who could be bossed around?
Sure enough, the guy she disliked would always do things that made her more disgusted.
She glanced at the two maids guarding the house, turned around and left.
"Let's go. Since Master Pei has no time, we'll meet another day."
Baisu and Cai Ru naturally followed her. Only Zhao Xiaodie was stunned, but then she hurried to keep up with them.
Just when they were about to walk to the door, the servant who was responsible for welcoming them ran out, panting.
"Master Gong, please wait! Please wait! My master said that we must not neglect Gong Family Head, and I hope Gong Family Head can forgive us. It's all my fault.
Please don't leave, my master is still waiting for you! "
Lin Mengya stopped and glanced at the servant who was busy apologizing to her.
The people of the Pei Family were really slick and flexible. They were also very powerful.
"Really?"
She looked at him with a faint smile.
The servant immediately apologized and said a series of good words, and tried to persuade them to go back.
This time, they went in directly, and no one dared to say anything to make her wait.
As soon as she entered the room, the first thing Lin Mengya saw was the two elders of the Zhao Family sitting on one side, looking very pale.
After glancing at them, she looked at the main seat.
"Young people nowadays are really impatient. Hahaha, Master Gong, although it's the first time we meet, I've heard a lot about you.
It's just a small misunderstanding, please don't take it to heart. Please sit down and enjoy the tea. "
