It seemed like this useless elder brother of his wasn't completely clueless.
"It's a pity that Bai Jing fought and killed for you all these years. Heh, elder brother, Bai Jing has long realized this."
"Our father, the heir he wanted, was never one of us."
"So, you view me with hostility and trample on me with all your might. It's because you feel indignant in your heart, but you don't dare to offend our father and find trouble with him."
Zhao Xun's eyes gradually turned crimson red.
His breathing became more and more hurried. His body was raised to the extreme, but he had no way to leave the sedan.
"You shut up! I order you to shut up immediately. Do you hear me?! "
Zhao Jue looked at him seriously. After that, he suddenly smiled.
"You are really pitiful, Zhao Xun."
He turned and couldn't be bothered to take another look at this coward.
In the past, he was trampled on by Bai Jing and his mother. At that time, he also swore that one day, he would definitely snatch back everything they had.
He wanted to let them taste the pain and grievances he had suffered.
But now, he did it.
It was a pity that Bai Jing and Zhao Xun were so weak that he was a little disappointed.
Zhao Xun kept cursing Zhao Jue like a madman.
What qualifications did Zhao Jue have?
He was merely a dog under his feet.
But now, this dog had climbed onto his head.
This made Zhao Xun even more unable to accept it.
In fact, he already couldn't care about his own future. He was only thinking about how to use the most vicious method to drag Zhao Jue back to hell.
He wanted Zhao Jue to be a dog under his feet for the rest of his life!
In the end, Zhao Xun still sent someone to bring him back.
It was just that from that day onwards, his personality became increasingly erratic. He was gloomy and irritable, but he was also strangely silent, not saying a single word for a long time.
Such a Zhao Xun would cause people to unknowingly hate him and want to distance themselves from him.
It was just that because of the Bai Clan's face, he still had food to eat.
But Zhao Xun's days grew increasingly difficult. It was a pity that other than his mother, no one else would care if he was warm or not.
Even the two women who were pregnant with his child were busy fighting for power and didn't come to visit him.
He was like a piece of rotten meat, quietly rotting in a corner.
.....
Lin Mengya rushed all the way.
She didn't know that because the Zhao brothers were on bad terms with each other, no one had discovered her arrangements in the Zhao mansion.
Based on their current speed, they would be able to reach the location of the clan meeting in another day — Yuehu City.
According to Uncle Huo and the others, this Yuehu City was the location of the Crescent City that had suddenly dried up.
Although the lake had dried up, it did not prevent this place from becoming a sacred land for the Ancient Race.
Every time the clan meeting was held, all the aristocratic families in the ancient clan, big and small, would send people to attend the meeting.
Apart from that, they had to do two very important things.
"Since this clan meeting is so important, why did they invite me? Sigh, I really don't understand. "
After coaxing the kids to sleep, Lin Mengya leaned against the window and chatted with Baisu.
"I don't know."
Baisu was an honest child.
If it had been someone else, this cold and aloof Ice Queen might have coldly replied, "How would I know?"
"Sigh, I really don't understand. Why did our ancestor's fate have so many twists and turns? Looking at all these incidents, it was clear that they were being targeted at them. It's also thanks to their prowess that we can have generations of descendants. Sigh, it's not easy! "
She sighed.
Baisu nodded. Yes, Master's words really made sense.
The few of them complained about the posthouse along the way.
Generally speaking, those aristocratic families who were in a hurry to attend the clan meeting would choose to leave a few days in advance.
On the way, they would also choose to stay in the posthouse for the night.
In fact, there was not much difference between this place and the outside world. It was always easier for the rich and powerful to get preferential treatment than others.
They had easily obtained the last few rooms because of Uncle Huo's status as an elder.
However, in reality, the conditions of the posthouse were really not very good.
Whether it was the size of the rooms, the decoration, or the level of comfort, they were completely incomparable to the Gong family's chain of inns.
Ah! That's right!
She suddenly remembered that in the letter sent by her great-grandfather during the New Year, he mentioned that her fourth elder brother was preparing to open a chain of restaurants.
The rooms were all ready-made and could even be matched with their inns.
Moreover, they would also specialize in the seafood produced in the Gong family's fief!
Seafood!
Whether it was the lively shrimp and crab that tasted fresh and sweet after steaming, or the fleshy, fat, and tender scallops and oysters that tasted delicious no matter if they were steamed or roasted with garlic sauce, or the fiery, fresh, and spicy fried clams!
Every one of them was her favorite. Just thinking about it made tears of longing flow uncontrollably from the corners of her mouth.
Sob sob sob … I want to go home!
Baisu was gently covering the little masters with blankets.
Unexpectedly, when she looked up, she saw her clever and intelligent master drooling at the moon outside.
Hmm? The moon?
She scratched her forehead in confusion.
It was not easy to be greedy for the moon!
However, when she thought of her master's strange taste when she was pregnant with the two little masters, she thought of another important question.
What did the moon taste like? What could she use to replace it?
Sigh, what a headache!
Their thoughts were obviously not on the same frequency.
But soon, they were interrupted by a knock on the door.
Lin Mengya hurriedly wiped the corners of her mouth and put on her veil.
After she was properly dressed, Baisu went to open the door.
However, it was a young waiter who came in with a fawning smile.
"What's the matter?" Baisu frowned and asked.
The waiter smiled dryly at Baisu, but in his heart, he was cursing his sneaky boss.
The girl who opened the door was not someone to be trifled with, but when he thought of his reward, he had to be brave enough to speak.
"Well, I'm really sorry, the room you are staying in has actually been booked by our boss."
"So?" Baisu's voice was cold and indifferent.
The waiter gritted his teeth and hurriedly snorted to his heart's content.
"Our boss also knows that this is our fault, but we can't afford to offend the guest. Please, for the sake of our hard work, make an exception for us! Don't worry, our boss will definitely refund you the money you paid for the room. Please give up your room to us. "
Baisu looked as if she wanted to eat someone.
The waiter's voice became softer and softer, and finally, it was like a mosquito buzzing.
Hearing that they were asked to give up the room, Baisu immediately became angry and grabbed the waiter's collar.
"What do you mean by giving up the room? It's your fault that you booked the wrong room, why should we bear the consequences? "
"Also, since we have already given you the money, we are already settled. How can you refund it just because you say so?"
"Where do you want my master to stay in the middle of the night? Do you want her to sleep in the wilderness? If anything happens to my master, your hostel can't even pay her a strand of hair! "
The waiter felt bitter in his mouth.
Pfft! He had said that it was not so easy to get the reward.
He could only beg for mercy, hoping that the boss would come quickly, lest he was eaten by this tigress.
Lin Mengya sat by the bed and gently patted her son and daughter, who were almost woken up.
Her face was hidden under the veil, so no one could see her expression clearly.
But from her actions, people would mistakenly think that she was a soft-hearted and easy-going person.
Obviously, the shopkeeper thought so as well.
When he heard the commotion above, he rushed over, only to see his partner almost strangled to death by someone else.
He hurriedly scolded, "Let go of me, where do you think this is? How dare you behave atrociously here?"
Baisu ignored him and gave him a cold look.
How dare they speak so loudly. If they woke up her young masters, these two bastards would die!
The boss was also very slippery.
He hurriedly came up to hold Baisu's hand.
But what Baisu hated most was being touched by strangers.
What's more, this person had been making a ruckus just now. He dodged the attack in a flash, and at the same time, he sent the boss flying with a kick.
"Oh my god!"
The boss with a mustache was thrown out horizontally.
He was dizzy from the fall and saw stars.
"That's enough."
Seeing that both of them had been taught a lesson, Lin Mengya stopped Baisu.
Baisu immediately let go of her hand and then stood behind her with her arms crossed, intimidating the two.
"I'm afraid that you will disturb the rest of the guests by making so much noise."
Lin Mengya stood at the door and said in an impolite tone.
"I said I won't give up this room. You will have to make up for your mistake. It has nothing to do with me."
"I also advise you to be more considerate and not disturb us in the middle of the night. Otherwise, next time it will not be such a light lesson. "
The boss and the waiter had to support each other to stand up.
But when they looked at Lin Mengya and Baisu again, there was fear in their eyes.
However, the shopkeeper touched the two ingots in his arms and made up his mind.
One had to know that the ancient clans were extremely stingy.
Besides, they did not have much business here except for the clan meeting.
After all, they did not allow outsiders to enter. Because the aboriginals were relatively isolated and intermarried, they had three to five relatives.
Even if they did not have time to go back, they would rarely choose to spend the night here.
As a result, their business was too bleak.
If it were not for the funding from the Elders, they would have quit long ago.
But now, there was a hundred taels in front of him!
God, a hundred taels!
It would be worth it even if he died!
He straightened his back and pointed at Lin Mengya, saying, "I told you to leave, so leave! This is my shop. I can do business with whoever I want! "
