As soon as she said that, the room quietened down instantly.
Yue Zhengzixiu glared at his annoying younger brother, and then smiled apologetically at Lin Mengya, "It's all Zitan's fault. What did Master Gong want to say just now?"
Yue Zhengzixiu didn't notice that Yue Zhengzixiu's body suddenly tensed up when he finished speaking.
He clenched his fingers so tightly that it was difficult for him to breathe.
Finding someone to impersonate her was the last resort.
He didn't have a choice. He didn't dare tell his elder brother that Gong Ya might be Aunt Qing's daughter.
Otherwise, his brother would know that he had turned a blind eye to her death.
But he was also muttering in his heart.
He was too late when he arrived, and he had personally confirmed that she had died of poison.
Although he had thought of taking her body away.
He had tried his best to sneak in, but he didn't have the ability to steal her body away.
He had always thought that he had kept it a secret. After all, she was dead and no one would know the truth.
But he didn't expect that the person he thought was dead was still alive!
Or was it because he was in a hurry that he didn't know the truth about her? So the person he thought was dead came back to life!
No one knew how flustered he was.
Aunt Qing had once been a great benefactor to the two of them, but he had let her down, as well as his brother's trust in him.
Could it be that Gong Ya knew what had happened, so she came to complain to his brother?
At this moment, Yue Zhengzixiu felt like he was on a stake.
Gong Ya's words were like a torch to his death.
He swallowed his saliva with great difficulty, but he didn't even have the courage to stop the other party from speaking. He could only listen to the other party and say, "It's nothing important. Since Patriarch Yue Zheng has a guest, then I'll take my leave first."
His heart, which had been hanging in the air, instantly fell back into his chest.
Yue Zhengzixiu even felt weak, as if he had just escaped from death.
On the other side, Yue Zhengzixiu felt that since she came here at this time, it must be something important.
After repeatedly asking her to stay, Lin Mengya rejected him and left.
"This Gong Family Head's temper is really unique."
Yue Zhengzixiu could not help but shake his head and sigh as he watched the other party's departing figure.
Actually, he really wanted to repay her for saving his life. However, ever since the last confrontation, Gong Ya had been very polite to him.
Come to think of it, he really treated him as an outsider.
Yue Zhengzitan was lost in his thoughts when he felt someone patting his shoulder.
Then, he saw his brother's smiling face.
"That's enough. You brat, you brought him here in such a hurry, but you didn't introduce him to us?"
Hearing the expectation in his brother's tone, Yue Zhengzitan felt extremely guilty.
He began to regret it.
It was fine before, but why did he still choose to lie now that Aunt Qing's daughter was right in front of them?
The truth was on the tip of his tongue.
But before he could speak, he heard a gentle woman's voice ring out.
"Are you Big Brother Zixiu?"
The woman lifted the bamboo hat on her head, revealing a delicate face.
Her eyes curved into crescents as she smiled. Although she was a little nervous, she still bowed graciously to Yue Zheng Zixiu.
"Your eyes look a little like Aunt Qing's."
Yue Zhengzixiu only took one look at her and was sure that she was Aunt Qing's daughter.
When the woman heard this, she tilted her head slightly and said, "I've only seen my mother's portrait. I didn't expect to be so lucky to have such a resemblance to her."
At the mention of Aunt Qing, Yue Zhengzixiu's attitude became increasingly gentle.
He felt that she would definitely be like Aunt Qing, possessing an unforgettable charm.
Looking at her, he felt as if he was looking at Aunt Qing.
"Aunt Qing told us many things about you in the past. I think if she could see you now, she would be very happy. "
"Is that so?" The woman opened her eyes slightly, as if she was very interested in what he was talking about. She could not help but say with some nostalgia, "I really want to know something about my mother. I wonder if Big Brother Zixiu would be willing to tell me?"
Yue Zhengzixiu readily agreed.
However, when he looked at her, there was no hint of affection between a man and a woman.
In his eyes, this girl was like Zitan. She was his younger sister.
As for the future, it was better to leave it for later.
After all, he just did not want to mistreat Aunt Qing's daughter.
From the beginning to the end, Yue Zhengzixiu's mouth was filled with bitterness.
He was wrong. He was really wrong!
He did not dare to lie to his elder brother just to cover up his lie.
The more his elder brother treated the girl he had replaced, the more uneasy and guilty he felt.
This was because all of this was built on Aunt Qing's sacrifice for the two brothers.
But now, he had to watch helplessly as his elder brother gave everything to that imposter.
Even though he was the one who found the imposter, he still could not eat or sleep in peace.
It was not easy to endure until the evening. Because his elder brother had other matters to attend to, he allowed the girl named 'Xiao Ya' to be alone with Yue Zhengzixiu.
That's right.
Back then, in those letters, they all used nicknames like "Xiao Ya" and "Ya 'er".
Perhaps Aunt Qing was afraid that someone would find these letters and trace it back to her daughter, so she had never mentioned her daughter's full name.
Yue Zhengzixiu had gone through a lot of trouble to find Lin Mengya, but his elder brother did not know the truth.
At this moment, Yue Zhengzixiu could not help but feel lucky.
If 'Gong Ya' was really 'Lin Mengya', then his lie would not be able to last even a day.
Seeing that there was no one around, he said to the imposter, "Tomorrow, tell my elder brother that you are not used to living here and want to go back. Do you understand?"
Xiao Ya nodded her head slowly.
She was just a little orphan girl who had no home to go back to.
About three years ago, she was accidentally rescued by Yue Zhengzixiu. Then, she was randomly placed in one of his residences as a maidservant.
In fact, she was not as calm and composed as she looked. Now, she was eager to leave as soon as possible.
Seeing that she was so obedient, Yue Zhengzixiu could not help but reflect on himself.
He was the one who found her, and he was the one who came up with this rotten idea.
Speaking of which, this girl was innocent and was implicated.
He could not help but soften his attitude. "I will not forget what I promised you. You don't have to be a maidservant anymore. I will give that residence to you. When you get married in the future, I will also send you off as your sworn brother."
Xiao Ya was pleasantly surprised and hurriedly thanked the Second Master.
"Thank you, Second Master! I will definitely do what you want me to do. Don't worry, Second Master! "
Yue Zhengzixiu nodded and then walked out with a heart full of worries.
The imposter was fine, but what should he do to make up for his mistake on the real one?
Just thinking about it gave him a headache.
.....
Lin Mengya had originally planned to visit him the next day to discuss the matter. Who knew that the peaceful Yuehu City would be in chaos again.
This time, she was forced to not even step out of the door.
This was all because someone was crazy enough to poison a large area of Yuehu City!
Speaking of which, Lin Mengya was quite vigilant.
The other party's method of poisoning was quite crafty.
They actually got a large swarm of hornets from nowhere and stung the pedestrians in the city like crazy.
Coincidentally, after everyone thought that the Pei family was annihilated, they also relaxed their vigilance. There were many people on the streets.
Most importantly, these hornets were very mobile and small targets.
Even if the doors and windows were tightly shut, it was very likely that they would come in through some inconspicuous hole.
Hornet stings were very powerful, and in serious cases, they could even be fatal.
This time, when the bee venom mixed with other poisons, the toxicity became even stronger.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya's body was special, and she and her teacher had the habit of sprinkling insect repellent in their residences.
They were the only ones who did not suffer any losses.
But this was only limited to within the residence. Once they stepped out, they would still be stung like the pedestrians on the streets.
Lin Mengya did not dare to let down her guard. Not only did she let the blood poison circulate throughout her body, but she also did not allow the two babies to leave her side for even a moment.
Even the adults could not bear this, let alone the two children.
"This is really strange!" Qian Jinzi looked as if she had seen a ghost. Under Zheng Yuan's cover, she rushed into the best sealed house.
As soon as she entered, he started grumbling about the situation outside.
"You didn't see it just now, but those hornets are like crazy, stinging anyone they see!
"The sky is so dark that I have goosebumps all over my body. I don't know which immoral person poked all the hornets' nests in this area to get revenge like this!"
Lin Mengya glanced at him.
This fellow relied on the special effect of the insect repellent at home and volunteered to go out and gather information.
But everyone knew that this fellow could not stay still and was a wanderer.
If Ma Feng was tormented by bumps all over his head, he would be obedient.
Fortunately, Zheng Yuan was a reliable person.
He took out a small bamboo tube.
The bamboo tube was half the length of a forearm, and it was quite airtight. But at this moment, there was a heavy sound of impact coming from inside.
Fortunately, he was holding it in his hand, or else it would have been sent flying.
"Are there live hornets inside?" Aunt Fang hesitated for a moment and asked curiously.
Zheng Yuan nodded.
With his martial arts, he could only catch two hornets with great difficulty under the condition that he would not be stung by the hornets.
The hornets were too aggressive. If it was not for the fact that this bamboo tube was specially made by Lin Mengya to contain poisonous insects, he might not have been able to control those damned hornets.
Aunt Fang saw his affirmation and immediately shrank back to Uncle Huo's side.
She was not afraid, she just felt that it was disgusting to take something out.
Yes, that's right!
Uncle Huo did not expose his wife. He patted her hand to comfort her.
