"However, no matter how the prince declines, he will not be supported by the Yu family, right? Or should I say, does the Yu family have any special abilities?"
It's not that Lin Mengya looked down on Yu Jia, in fact, when she came to ask for a house at that time, she made two plans.
If the Yu family is weak, then she will take the opportunity to take back the house.
But if the Yu family is a very powerful family, then she must give up as soon as she sees fit.
Facts have proved that a group of people in the Yu family are nothing more than paper tigers.
"It is true that the Yu family will not support her, but Yu Mingzhu's skills are very powerful. She has a close relationship with the most favored concubine daughter of Prince Xiao among the three kings. In the past three years, she even lived in Prince Xiao's mansion.
.However, King Xiao’s legitimate daughter recently returned from training, and the concubine was also suppressed, so she returned to her family.”
Surprisingly, there is still such a relationship.
Lin Mengya understood that with such a background, Yu Mingzhu could survive until now, and he was considered a formidable opponent.
It seems that there are some things that she needs to consider in the long term.
"That brother, where is he now?"
After hearing her words, Gong Si's face turned slightly gloomy.
There was some hesitation in her eyes, and Lin Mengya understood that she had touched someone's wound.
"Sorry, forget it, why should I mention him-"
"He, he is missing."
Lin Mengya said "Oh" and didn't dare to study it further.
If we go by the ranking, that person is the real Gong Si. However, if we can't even mention it now, I'm afraid that person also committed a lot of evil in the beginning.
"Speaking of which, I have met several uncles and uncles."
Although she recognized the Gong family's surname, she must not forget the proper etiquette.
The sadness on Gong Si's face did not diminish, and Lin Mengya realized later that she seemed to have asked some questions that she shouldn't have asked.
"Anyway, I'm sorry."
Could it be that you ate too much tonight and your brain started to shut down?
Why didn't she think of such an obvious problem?
If the elders of the Gong family were still there, why would the great-grandfather have to hold on, and the five sons of the Gong family would not have to suffer such grievances anymore.
"Fifteen years ago, my father and uncles died in battle."
His tone was soft and soft. Fifteen years had passed, but the sadness had not weakened at all with the passage of time.
When her father and brother were stationed at the border, she should have felt the same way.
"The situation of the Gong family was not good at that time. Except for the An family, all the families wanted a share of the pie. At this time, the vassal country that had always surrendered began to cause rebellion, and the emperor wanted to send elite soldiers and strong generals to go there. Suppression. In order to give the Gong family a chance to breathe, my father and others volunteered. I think they also felt that they deserved to die."
Lin Mengya blinked her eyes. To be honest, even now, she still can't understand why they can sacrifice themselves to this extent for their family.
But if it was for her family, maybe she would make such a choice.
The Gong family is everything to them.
Although she disagreed, she couldn't just say they were wrong.
"The Gong family will never forget their efforts. In fact, I didn't want the position of head of the family in the first place."
"Little sister, you can't leave us!"
"Listen to me."
Seeing that the fourth brother was about to get excited, Lin Mengya immediately comforted him and said.
"When my grandmother left, there must be a reason. But the fourth brother, the head of the Gong family, why can he only pass on daughters and not men? Don't rush to talk about the old rules. The rules are made by people.
, it can naturally be changed by others. Why haven't you had this thought in the past fifty years?"
When the Gong family couldn't give birth to a daughter, others thought it was a warning, but Lin Mengya felt that it was more like a reminder from God.
If a woman can be the head of the household, why can’t a man?
Men and women should be equal, otherwise sooner or later, the Gong family will suffer a more fatal blow due to the incompetence of the head of the family.
Therefore, whether it is a man or a woman, a capable person can live in it. This is the secret of a family's long-lasting prosperity.
But there is no banquet in the world that never lasts. Sooner or later, the Gong family will disappear in the long river of history, but it is definitely not now.
"This was decided by the first-generation head of the family. Little sister, you better not worry about this matter. In short, we are all happy when you are the head of the family."
Looking at her fourth brother's silly face, Lin Mengya felt a little headache.
Well, for them, this idea of equality between men and women is probably a bit ahead of their time.
Even so, she is still subtle.
"They shouldn't give up so easily on the Yu family's affairs. But I guess the Baili family won't stand up for them easily. The most important thing now is to seize the time and conquer all the forces we can control. Fourth brother
,What is the current situation of the Gong family like?"
In fact, it is most appropriate to ask the boss Gong Bin about these matters.
But Gong Bin still has a lot of things to do. It seems that her fourth brother will finally
suitable.
Gong Si had nothing to hide, so he thought about it and answered her.
"Originally, our fiefdom had twelve state capitals. However, four were forcibly occupied by several surrounding families. The remaining eight, except for Beiling State, were still under our control. The rest were all
Each one works independently. Only a small part of our stores and land are still in the hands of our own people. The rest are either doing it illegally or simply playing dirty tricks, which is really hateful."
Lin Mengya had already anticipated this situation. The Gong family was once extremely prosperous, so those people had not been exposed so completely.
Now that the Gong family has become a sick tiger, those people have already had different intentions and will definitely jump out and become clowns.
Gong Si also reported the remaining matters to Lin Mengya in detail.
On the first night at Gong's house, Lin Mengya barely slept.
She discussed some countermeasures with Gong Si all night long. Only when the sky got brighter did she remember to stretch her aching limbs.
"It's all my fault, why did I forget that you just came back. It's still early, so you should go and get some sleep first."
Gong Si looked at his sister's face, which looked a little haggard, with a look of self-blame.
"I'm fine. Let's forget it. I'll go to sleep for a while. If there's something important, you can call me again."
Rubbing her swollen eyes, Lin Mengya entered the owner's inner room.
All the bedding here is new, and the things brought from the small courtyard have also been properly placed.
The bedroom is very spacious, and every item used here has been carefully selected.
The huanghuali chairs, red sandalwood tables, gilt incense burners, and even the teacups placed on them are all crystal clear sapphire.
It's a pity that she doesn't have the time or mood to appreciate and play with it.
After taking off his coat, he threw himself into the soft quilt and fell into a deep sleep.
Lin Mengya woke up under the wet bite of a small mouth. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Mo Yan's cute little face magnified in her sight.
"Haha, boy, how dare you attack my aunt!"
He held the boy in his arms and pinched his little face which felt so good.
Mo Yan was never annoyed or angry towards Lin Mengya, and he wasn't angry when he was pinched. He just chuckled, but his little body leaned into her arms.
Probably because he was abducted before, although this kid doesn't understand anything, he knows who is closest to him.
I haven't seen my aunt for only one day and one night, and I'm already thinking about it so much that I can't eat or sleep.
In this moment, before Lin Mengya could coax him, the little guy Leaning in her arms, he fell asleep sweetly.
Lin Mengya carefully withdrew her hand, stuffed Mo Yan into the quilt and continued to sleep comfortably.
After getting up and sorting out her clothes, Lin Mengya walked out of the door of her room.
"master."
She was startled by Bai Su's familiar voice. When she came back to her senses, she saw that her loyal little Bai Su was guarding her door like a green pine.
"Bai Su, you're finally here? Did An Zichen make things difficult for you? Have you left for lunch?"
Lin Mengya, who had just woken up, was relatively slow to react.
Apart from anything else, the murderous look of her icy beauty Bai Su is not the standard state after a reunion.
"Little sister, this maid of yours is too arrogant!"
A few steps away, Gong Yu, the fifth young master of the Gong family, looked angry.
He just wanted to wake up his little sister for dinner, but was blocked by this guy.
What's even more outrageous is that this little maid actually dares to draw a sword against him.
It's not that he can't beat her, it's just that the fourth brother told her that he heard that this maid was brought back from there and they are very close to her.
If he wasn't afraid that his little sister would be sad, he would have taught that girl a lesson.
Seeing the aggrieved look on Gong Wu's face, Lin Mengya probably guessed what happened.
However, Bai Su is her good sister, so she naturally wants to be closer to Bai Su.
She looked at her fifth brother with a smile. It was a new arrival and she didn't want Bai Su to make enemies.
"Fifth brother, you have wronged my girl Bai Su. I used to be in poor health and had a weak constitution. If I didn't sleep well, I would get dizzy easily when I got up. Bai Su didn't let you in because he was afraid that I would feel uncomfortable.
Blame me for not explaining things clearly."
None of these reasons mattered. Lin Mengya's sweet call to Fifth Brother immediately made Gong Wu feel no longer complaining at all.
"So that's it, I remember it. Girl, I'm sorry, I was reckless."
Bai Su was stunned. She didn't expect that the young master of the Gong family, who was also from an aristocratic family, would be so polite.
"It doesn't matter."
However, Bai Su was used to being aloof, especially in an unfamiliar environment.
Lin Mengya knew this girl's temperament, and after asking Gong Wu if there was anything important, she took Bai Su to the bedroom.
"Master, they didn't do anything to you, right?"
The hedgehog that was covered in thorns just now turned into a soft little sheep in front of Lin Mengya.
