"It's okay, we can't force others to do anything."
Looking through Mr. Bai He's resume, she always felt something strange.
"Master, the people at Qingwei Guild Hall asked if you could come over if you are free. They have something they want to discuss with you."
Lin Mengya raised her head and glanced at Bai Su. When they reached an agreement before, Qingwei Guild had mentioned it and hoped that she could do a favor.
It seems that this is what should be said.
"Tell them that I won't be free the year before, and I will visit again after the first day of the new year."
Bai Su nodded and left, while Lin Mengya continued to read.
She found that the students Mr. Bai He accepted basically had nothing in common.
In addition to female students, she will also accept some younger male students.
If we have to say they have something in common, I'm afraid they are all children of the same family.
Very rarely, there are those children from collateral lines.
The same is true for Gu Pan. She and Qi Ranxin are both the prince's daughters. Even if they were not born to the same mother, Mr. Bai He accepted them.
Is it possible that these people are also from ancient tribes?
However, there was no way for Qingwei Guild Hall to continue investigating this matter for her.
After all, if Gu Pan hadn't had a close relationship with Mrs. Lian, I'm afraid she wouldn't have known about it.
After all, I’d better write down these lists first.
Maybe it can be used for other purposes in the future.
After having the connection that she accidentally saw before, Lin Mengya asked the people who were staring at Mo Xiangxuan to make a note of those Mo Xiangxuan's customers.
What I didn't expect was that most of these people appeared on the list of students that Mr. Bai He had taught or was currently teaching.
It seems that this is really not a coincidence.
In the past few days, Murong Xi also sent people to help her, but those people were all staring at Lusheng Courtyard.
Ailian went there again, but found no trace of Mr. Bai He.
But Mr. Bai He accepted students again a few years ago, and the families he accepted happened to be the same families who went shopping in Moxiangxuan in the first few days.
It seems that Mo Xiangxuan should be the place that really decides which students Mr. Bai He will accept.
As for why no one has discovered this scale, it must be because Ailian is very popular in Longdu, and almost all women from aristocratic families will patronize Mo Xiangxuan.
Sometimes, the more obvious something is, the harder it is to be discovered.
Lin Mengya couldn't help but think of the medicine hidden in the sachet.
Although she could tell the ingredients inside with Pan Pan, such a trace amount of poison would not cause much damage to the human body.
What kind of secret does this medicine hide?
Although a lot of things have happened this year, New Year's Eve is still the same The past has come.
The New Year in Longdu is quite lively.
In addition, there are snow sculptures to add to the fun this year. Even though there was a tragedy on the winter solstice, people still want to celebrate the arrival of the new year.
Lin Mengya felt something strange in her heart as she saw everyone in the palace family busy with their day.
This is the first year she has lived in Weiguo, and the third year she has lived since returning here.
"Miss, your highness Liangyu is here!"
Last night, the baby didn't come back.
The fourth brother said that it was Murong Xi's wish to keep him one more night and then send him back to the Gong family for the New Year.
She didn't sleep much all night. After hearing Jun'er's voice, she immediately put on her shoes and ran out.
Her baby, that little soft little guy, was raising his head and saluting his great-grandfather with a smile on his face.
"Miss Gong."
A middle-aged man who looked like a butler spoke to her politely.
"My Highness entered the palace early in the morning. Today is New Year's Eve. He was afraid of wronging His Highness, so he wanted Miss Gong to take care of it on his behalf."
Lin Mengya suppressed the joy in her heart and nodded gently.
The housekeeper brought in a lot of gifts and said apologetically.
"My Royal Highness said that we really shouldn't trouble Miss Gong on New Year's Eve. So I apologize for these things."
Lin Mengya knew that the man was not afraid of troubling her, but felt that he could not come to accompany her, so she felt sorry.
But there is nothing that can be done about it, after all, the current Murong Xi is no longer the Long Tianyu of the past.
"Thank you, sorry for bothering you."
The housekeeper put down his things and left, but Lin Mengya could no longer hold back, picked up Ning'er, and quickly returned to her yard.
After kissing his little face hard several times, she felt a real feeling when she saw that little guy smiling so hard that he couldn't even see his eyebrows.
"mother"
An extremely clear word came out of Ning'er's mouth.
Even though it was just small, weak, and soft and sweet, it was enough to make her burst into tears.
"My baby"
Bai Su and Jun'er looked into their eyes and felt distressed.
"Miss, really, now that the baby can come back, it is the best thing. It's Chinese New Year, why are we crying? We should be laughing!"
Lin Mengya wiped away her tears twice and felt that what Jun'er said made sense.
"Okay, let's put up Spring Festival couplets and the word "Fu"!"
she is in high spirits
I posted the Spring Festival couplets with the word "Fu" written by my third brother who has the best calligraphy in the family a few days ago.
Currently, there is no such custom in Weiguo.
But every household will put some New Year pictures on the door.
The vigorous and powerful font carries hope for the new year.
Even my great-grandfather kept praising her for her creativity after seeing it.
After posting the Spring Festival couplets, great-grandfather would take his family members to greet the ancestors of the Gong family.
Lin Mengya knelt at the front, looking at the delicate yet tough names on the tablet, she felt a little emotional.
If these female heads of the Gong family hadn't shouldered important responsibilities with their weak demeanor, and used their gentle policies to appease and confuse the wolves outside, I'm afraid the Gong family would have declined long ago.
She did it today for no other reason than to express her respect for these women.
The female head of the Gong family has real power, not just an empty show.
No matter what, she must continue to pass on this tradition.
From now on in the Gong family, regardless of whether they are men or women, they will only be judged based on their talents and abilities!
"Miss, that annoying Aunt An is here again."
After the priest finished paying his respects, before Lin Mengya went out, she heard Jun'er whisper.
"What is she here for?"
He raised his eyebrows. Isn't this guy much more honest these days?
"She said she hoped to pay tribute to her ancestors and hope that they could forgive her past mistakes."
There is quite a reason for saying this.
Turning her head, Lin Mengya glanced at Gong San.
The latter obviously heard Jun'er's words, but he was not too excited.
After thinking for a while, he nodded in agreement.
After all, An Jiarong was once the daughter-in-law of the Gong family.
This time, An Jiarong was obviously not as arrogant as last time.
She was wearing a very plain gown, and her hair was neatly arranged, with only a sandalwood hairpin.
He looks like a layman who eats fast and chants Buddha's name.
It is said that after being punished by Lin Mengya last time, she was abandoned by the world of mortals. She stayed in her room all day long, planning to be with the Ancient Buddha of the Green Lantern.
Regarding An Jiarong's changes, Lin Mengya had a wait-and-see attitude.
No matter what her plan was, at least for now, An Jiarong couldn't escape her grasp.
After bowing politely, An Jiarong unexpectedly stood up and knelt in front of her great-grandfather again.
"Grandpa, it was Jiarong who was not sensible in the past and let down my husband. Please forgive me, grandpa."
Gong Qianfeng looked complicated. At first, he saw those children. Growing up.
When something like that happened, besides feeling sad, he also felt a little hatred towards his grandson's wife.
But the Gong family members were never willing to trap themselves with hatred.
"Forget it, what happened in the past is in the past. From now on, you should take good care of the third child. If there is a suitable person, don't waste your life."
Not close, but not too indifferent or distant.
Lin Mengya sneered silently in her heart, An Jiarong really learned well.
She knew that even she had to respect her great-grandfather's opinion.
Moreover, my great-grandfather was very open-minded and would not care about a woman.
As long as great-grandfather accepts An Jiarong, it means that the Gong family accepts An Jiarong.
This guy seems to be upgrading his tricks.
"Yes, Jiarong knows. This is a Buddhist scripture that Jiarong has copied in the past few days. She also asked her grandfather to tell her whether to send it to Xianggong. Over the past few nights, Jiarong has been dreaming about Xianggong's shackles, which makes him miserable.
So Jiarong thinks that this Buddhist scripture should make Xianggong feel better."
An Jiarong lowered her eyebrows and her voice sounded a little more sad.
Lin Mengya felt that this person had really improved.
A soft knife cut my great-grandfather's heart into pieces.
"Oh, it's just the third child. You are husband and wife after all. Maybe it was the third child who really entrusted you with your dream. In that case, I'll trouble you to copy more Buddhist scriptures."
"Yes, Jiarong understands."
After saying that, An Jiarong exited the ancestral hall.
Lin Mengya glanced at her back, with a cold smile on her lips.
"Little sister, when did you say that tigers stopped eating meat and started eating grass?"
Several people walked out of the ancestral hall, but Gong Si slowed down, deliberately stopped in front of her, and whispered.
"Tiger? I think it's just a tabby cat that wants to play tricks at best. Just watch, it won't last long."
She squinted her eyes and didn't care at all.
"That's right. An Jiarong's temperament has been strong for a lifetime. Even if she pretends to be humble and submissive, I'm afraid she won't be able to pretend for long."
The two of them looked at each other with a tacit understanding, and they both understood that this year would probably not be boring anymore.
After comforting the ancestors, the rule of the Gong family is to have a very sumptuous reunion dinner at noon.
Today, there is no distinction between master and servant, high or low.
Some are just families getting together and having a comfortable reunion dinner.
The Gong family, who had already found a wife in Longdu, also brought their wives and children over.
The whole family sat at six large tables, which was very lively.
