Lin Mengya was speechless when she heard the arrogant tone of the other party, whose eyes were almost on the roof.
Who gave Bai Jing such confidence?
Or was it because she was so ignorant that she didn't know what was going on?
But before she could speak, Aunt Fang retorted unhappily, "Bai Jing, this is not your South Courtyard, but my Zhao's Mansion.
Who gave you the right to reprimand my guest?
If you want to show off and put on airs, go back to your South Courtyard! "
"You!"
Bai Jing was so angry that her face almost twisted.
She had always despised Fang Rao's arrogant and virtuous look.
Didn't she look down on her sisters-in-law just because her man had some tricks up his sleeve?
But now, she had completely offended the Pei Family for the sake of that woman from the Gong Family.
Even if her man came back, he wouldn't be able to protect her this time.
Since that was the case, there was no need for her to pretend to be a snake in front of Fang Rao.
She snorted and said sarcastically, "Fang Rao, do you think you can escape unscathed after offending the Master of the Pei Family and disrespecting his relatives?
No matter how much Zhao Yixuan values you, he can't protect you this time. "
Speaking of this, Bai Jing's mood suddenly improved a lot.
She curled her lips and looked around the courtyard proudly.
Although she tried her best to look picky, she couldn't help but feel jealous.
Zhao Yixuan's favoritism for Fang Rao had made many sisters-in-law in the family jealous and hateful.
But now, everything would no longer belong to Fang Rao!
"And everything you've meticulously arranged will become the property of my son. Come to think of it, although you have eyes but fail to see, and the way you act is also quite condescending.
But seeing that you have meticulously arranged everything in this mansion for my son, I will still reward you with a few taels of silver so that you can linger at death's door in the future, crying and begging for my forgiveness. "
But in the eyes of Lin Mengya and Fang Rao, it was just stupid swagger.
But in the eyes of Lin Mengya and Fang Rao, it was just stupid swagger.
It wasn't wrong to be stupid.
After all, stupid people didn't know themselves.
But it was wrong of her to use her stupidity to disgust others.
Lin Mengya found it hard to understand Bai Jing's assumption.
Or perhaps this was the unique local customs of the aboriginals?
In fact, Lin Mengya could not be blamed for complaining like this.
The current Aboriginals were like Yelang back then.
He was trapped in a small world, but he didn't know it.
Because of their shallow knowledge, they thought that they were the center of the world.
Perhaps in their eyes, no matter how big of a storm the Gong Family stirred up, they were still an abandoned clan of the aboriginals. Of course, they would still be under the jurisdiction and exploitation of the aboriginals.
However, they didn't understand that from the moment the Gong Family left the Gu Clan, or perhaps even earlier, the Gong Family had already shifted their focus to the vast world and not the small Gu Clan.
Especially for someone like her who had grown up outside, those rotten, backward, and even somewhat stupid clan rules were simply a fool's dream.
However, the Ancient Race took it as a matter of course, and continued to use it generation after generation.
After several attempts, she had completely given up on the idea of using words to communicate with the other party.
Since they refused to listen to reason, she had nothing to fear.

Alright.
At most, she could just fight back.
"Madam Zhao of the South Courtyard, right?"
Lin Mengya patted Aunt Fang's shoulder lightly, using her eyes to indicate that there was no need to get angry with this kind of person.
Lin Mengya raised the corner of her mouth. She was dressed very simply today. After all, it was a worship ceremony, and she didn't want to steal the limelight.
Therefore, she seemed especially gentle and amiable.
Her smile was even more amiable, as if a spring breeze had washed over people.
"I have to thank Madam on behalf of Aunt Fang for her appreciation of her foresight."
Bai Jing was stunned. Then, she felt that it was ridiculous and irritating.
She didn't come here just to praise that bitch Fang Rao!
However, Lin Mengya continued, "Speaking of which, I have seen the young master of your family a few times. Although he is good-looking, his character is really not satisfactory.
Today, after seeing Madam, I finally understand that like mother, like son. "
Bai Jing had never suffered such humiliation.
Among the female members of the Zhao Family, she had enjoyed decades of glory because of her husband's high status, her family's power, and her good son.
Even though she had a favor to ask from Fang Rao, she had merely restrained her arrogant and domineering nature.
Now, she was being ridiculed by a junior.
This was simply intolerable!
With a cold face, she waved her hand to teach Lin Mengya a lesson.
However, her wrist was caught by Lin Mengya.
"Madam, although I am young, I am also a guest of the Zhao Family. It turns out that the Zhao Family's way of treating guests is to beat and scold distinguished guests.
Oh, I'm afraid that next time, no one will come to the Zhao Family as a guest, right? "
When Lin Mengya spoke, her attitude was still the same, understated.
If one didn't see Bai Jing's flustered and exasperated face, and only saw Lin Mengya's words, they would even think that they were chatting and greeting each other.
Bai Jing was so angry that her face turned red.
However, she had no choice but to stop.
Behind her, the two elders of the Zhao Family, who seemed to be careless but had actually been paying attention to this side, also spoke belatedly.
"People of the south courtyard, don't be rude to Master Gong."
The old fox, Great Grandpa Zhao, said with a straight face.
Bai Jing turned around and glared at Great Grandpa Zhao angrily, but had to grit her teeth and take a few steps back.
Great Grandpa Zhao was very afraid of Lin Mengya.
Although he still harbored evil intentions towards the Gong Family, at least on the surface, he didn't dare to offend them too much.
Especially his third brother's injury, which had not yet recovered.
Even if he asked for help from the Pei Family, he had to dig out the rotten flesh on his wound to save his life.
Therefore, he could let Bai Jing test Lin Mengya, but he didn't dare to have a falling out with her.
Lin Mengya also didn't want to have a conflict with them during the New Year.
She just nodded at Grandpa Zhao coldly, and then stood by Aunt Fang's side more firmly to show her stance and attitude.
Great Grandpa Zhao looked down and could only suppress his dissatisfaction with her for the time being.
But when he thought of the insider information, he felt that his tolerance today was worth it.
Ha, Gong Ya, you won't be so arrogant for long!
Everyone had their own thoughts and began the ceremony to worship the God.
Although Lin Mengya's mood was disturbed, when the ceremony began, everyone returned to their solemn and dignified appearance.
Even the two old men of the Zhao Family and Bai Jing looked solemn, as if they were really afraid of offending their God.
(This chapter is not finished, please continue to the next page.)
As if God.
She couldn't help but respect this God of the Ancient Clan a little more.
After that, she invited the most respected member of the clan to bring out the statue of this God.
Aunt Fang whispered in Lin Mengya's ear.
"This statue was brought over from the Elder Council when he was dividing the manor. It is usually placed in the shrine, and only on the day of the end of the year, he will take it out to worship. "
The "him" that Aunt Fang was talking about was naturally Uncle Huo.
Actually, Lin Mengya felt a little strange.
Uncle Huo was not a member of the Zhao Family, and he wasn't even an aboriginal.
In that case, could the God that he invited really protect the Zhao Family?
Lin Mengya felt as if she had discovered some incredible truth.
The statue was sitting in the shrine, which was half the height of a person.
However, it was covered with a piece of red cloth, so people couldn't see what the statue looked like. They could only vaguely see that it was a sitting statue of a person dressed in ancient clothes.
After inviting the statue out, it was a rather complicated ritual to worship.
Lin Mengya vaguely felt that this scene was a little familiar.
After knocking her head, she suddenly remembered the sacrificial ceremony that she had participated in when she was in the Lieyun Kingdom.
It was just as devout and solemn. Even if they were fighting for life and death just a moment ago, they had to temporarily restrain their claws and teeth and sincerely worship for their God.
And what was most familiar to her was the ritual gesture that the Zhao Family used to worship the God.
She had seen it in the palace of the Lieyun Kingdom.
That was the gesture that the royal family and nobles used when worshiping the statue of the Witch Queen.
Although there were some differences in the details, it was roughly the same.
However, this place was thousands of miles away from the Lieyun Kingdom, and there was even a vast ocean between them.
Could there really be such a coincidence in the world?
"Aunt Fang, when did this special worship ceremony start?" she asked Aunt Fang in a low voice.
Aunt Fang thought for a while and answered her in a low voice.
"I don't remember. But I heard from my father that the Aboriginals are the people of this God, and it was the God who gave the Aboriginals a place, so the Aboriginals have been worshiping the God for generations. "
Lin Mengya frowned slightly.
She found that as the ceremony went on, the expressions of the Aboriginals became more and more devout.
Even the faces of Bai Jing and the two elders of the Zhao Family were the same.
They seemed to worship their God from the bottom of their hearts, and the way they looked at the statue became more and more fanatical, as if they were the most loyal believers.
Lin Mengya suddenly felt that her nose was very itchy, and she couldn't help but sneeze.
Something unexpected happened.
The people who were born to worship the God suddenly turned their heads together and stared at her with extremely gloomy eyes!
Aunt Fang suddenly grabbed her sleeves and subconsciously wanted to stand in front of her.
Lin Mengya was also stunned by this scene.
She suddenly realized something. Although she didn't look too good, she still chose to bow to the statue.
After doing all this, why did the Zhao clansmen turn their heads and continue to worship their God fanatically?
If Aunt Fang's palms weren't wet with sweat, the two of them would probably think that what they saw just now was an illusion.
"This …"
Aunt Fang also didn't expect to encounter such a thing, and she couldn't help but look a little frightened.
But Lin Mengya thoughtfully looked at the way they worshiped the God until the ceremony ended.
