After a busy day, as soon as she got home, she immediately went to her great-grandfather's yard.
The lights were still on in the room, but she deliberately asked the housekeeper at the door.
"This damn girl is still pretending to inquire about something. Come in if you want."
Inside the door, great-grandfather’s laughter and curses could be heard.
Lin Mengya smiled slyly, and then handed some scattered silver to the house slave who looked after the door.
These people are used to following their great-grandfather and cannot do other things, but they can still do their job of guarding the gates and courtyards.
Compared with those young people who were freed from slavery, all they wanted was to have enough food and clothing to spend the rest of their lives.
Lin Mengya opened the door curtain and walked in with a sweet smile.
At this time, great-grandfather was sitting at his desk, reading something unknown.
Seeing her come in, I let go.
"Great-grandfather, I heard that a dim sum master came to the city. His skillful hands are really rare. I bought a few cold cakes. You can eat them with hot tea. Be careful not to be greedy."
Great-grandfather was used to her filial piety.
Speaking of which, none of the top five men in the family can match this girl's thoughtfulness.
Whether it is medicinal meals or snacks and desserts, they are all prepared properly, taking into account both his taste and his body.
No matter how busy I am these days, I always send him some wonderful gadgets to please him.
Therefore, Gong Qianfeng always indulged this precious girl.
Even, to some extent, more so than her five brothers.
"Okay, you have your heart set on it. Things in the academy aren't bothering you, are they?"
She frowned quickly, but quickly shook her head.
"It's okay. Third brother is very powerful. With him here, I don't have to worry so much. Even if some problems are difficult to solve for a while, I believe there will always be a way."
Gong Qianfeng took a bite of the cake and felt that it was soft, smooth and sweet, which was indeed the most suitable for his taste.
Just for this piece of cake, he had to put an end to his great-granddaughter's troubles.
"That's good, but if you encounter any trouble that is difficult to solve, don't forget that the entire Gong family has your backing. If anything happens, don't bear it alone."
For a moment, Lin Mengya thought she had been seen through.
She looked at her great-grandfather with a little surprise, but he still looked kind and kind.
No matter how she looked, she couldn't see any other emotions.
It seems that she is really too worried.
Nodding, Lin Mengya was thinking about how to speak.
That's how she is.
When you lie to your enemy, you can tell a big lie without blinking an eye.
Faceable She was somewhat unable to speak to her relatives.
Or? Come back another day?
After hesitating for a moment, she decided to bite the bullet and speak.
"Great-grandfather, in the past few days, there have been many people celebrating the establishment of our college. I discussed with my eldest brother that since everyone is here, we should have a good time."
Great-grandfather nodded in agreement.
"There is also a marriage recognition ceremony. Big brother said that everyone is here for the academy. If we do it together, it will seem unceremonious. How about inviting a few aristocratic families who have good relations with our family, which is both grand and unceremonious.
It would seem too abrupt, what do you think?"
Great-grandfather hesitated for a moment, but Su Mei's identity would eventually disappear one day.
They have even thought about their retreat.
When the time comes, just tell Su Mei to marry far away and everything will be solved.
Therefore, the request she made now, my great-grandfather felt, was acceptable.
"That's fine. Anyway, I just want to make it easier for you. Just do whatever you want."
"Thank you, great-grandfather. I think this time is also a good opportunity to connect with old relationships. Needless to say, the An family is unkind, so don't blame us for being unjust. However, if none of the previous relationships between the Gong family and the Gong family are gone, then I'm afraid
, outsiders will think that our Gong family is snobbish and ungrateful."
Her words spoke to her great-grandfather's heart.
As people get older, they miss the past.
It’s time to sort out those old relationships from the past.
After all, not everyone is as happy as Anjia. Seeing them in distress, they want to take the opportunity to step on them.
"Well, you girl has thought it over carefully, so we've settled on it."
Lin Mengya was overjoyed to see her great-grandfather agree easily.
But what comes next is the highlight.
"Since my great-grandfather agreed, my eldest brother and I will go ahead and do it. But although my eldest brother has been in charge of the family for many years, he is still a junior after all. If our family has any special relationship with other people's families, my eldest brother may not know it clearly.
"
She secretly observed her great-grandfather's expression, testing him a little bit.
"How about great-grandfather help us think about it, so as not to miss anyone or offend anyone without even knowing it."
As soon as she finished speaking, her heart felt anxious.
If we talk about old relationships, then the old affairs between the Bai family and the Gong family are probably unavoidable.
So she came here today to see her great-grandfather's reaction.
In the meantime, great-grandfather pinched another piece of cake, looking thoughtful, but did not agree immediately.
"My great-grandfather had
Is it any inconvenience? If so, forget it."
"Okay, there's nothing inconvenient about this. It's just that I'm old now and have a bad memory. If I remember something wrong in a moment of confusion, don't blame me."
"How can we blame our great-grandfather? In fact, we are a little helpless about this matter. After all, among the older generations of the Gong family, you are the only one with this experience and ability. Look at the elders of those branches, they are not crooked.
I can't speak a complete sentence, I just throw things here and there, and my words are confusing. Our great-grandfather is still very powerful, not only knowledgeable, but also clear-minded, but he is completely unfamiliar with young people."
After drinking such a bowl of ecstasy soup, my great-grandfather was already so light that he didn't know where to go from east to west.
"You girl, you are the best at coaxing people."
Great-grandfather gently tapped her forehead, with a smile on his face that showed his doting on her.
Lin Mengya smiled sheepishly, still feeling a little guilty for her great-grandfather.
But she swore that even if Mr. Bai had to ask her great-grandfather to come and apologize in person, as long as Mr. Bai dared to embarrass her great-grandfather, no matter what deadly thing he held in his hand, she would immediately turn over it and let that person know how powerful she was!
"Let me think about it carefully. By the way, Uncle Lian, go to the warehouse and get all the gift accounts from decades ago."
"yes."
She finally breathed a sigh of relief after her great-grandfather agreed and started to sort it out.
Next, it depends on whether great-grandfather will mention the Bai family.
If great-grandfather takes the initiative to mention the Bai family, it means that things will turn around.
At least in my great-grandfather's impression, the two families had not reached the point where they would never interact with each other until death.
But if her great-grandfather didn't even mention it, then she couldn't persuade her if she wanted to.
You can't tell your great-grandfather directly that the old man from the Bai family has said that as long as you bow your head, he will be their teacher, right?
Great-grandfather also has his own pride, which has not been damaged after many years of adversity.
Now, how could she bear to let her great-grandfather bow down because of this matter?
She had already prepared for the worst for many things.
She didn't believe it anymore. Could the old gentleman from the Bai family really be able to cover the sky with just one hand?
She did not rush her great-grandfather. On the contrary, she hoped to leave her great-grandfather enough time.
After all, if the Gong family wants to jump back to the top of the top ten aristocratic families, the support of its old allies is essential.
What's more, there are new disturbances in the academy.
The whole thing happened because of Mr. Liang’s three family members.
The two in-laws of the Liang family are both reasonable people. Knowing that Mr. Liang fell ill this time, they specifically asked their daughter-in-law to take good care of him and wait until Mr. Liang gets better before going back.
Therefore, there are many more people in the college Few people.
But troubles also came one after another.
The first problem they faced was that they didn't have enough room to live in.
Originally, Mr. Liang's yard was very spacious. Because Mr. Liang didn't like to be served by others, in addition to a little book boy who took care of his food and daily life, there were only two or three men who did menial work.
Although Liang Yue is a girl, due to Mr. Liang's discipline, there are only one or two more maids than Mr. Liang, including personal maids.
But this time it was different. The Liang family, mother and daughter, plus the people who served them, had more than a dozen children.
Now, the small courtyard seems to be stretched thin.
But the third brother cannot kick people out to live there. After all, Mr. Liang still needs to recuperate, and these women also need to be taken care of nearby.
I don’t know how the third brother handled it. When the matter reached her, it was the third brother who sent someone to invite her to discuss the matter.
"Third brother can arrange whatever he wants. What do you want me to do?"
She was busy with other things. After seeing her third brother following her, she asked with some confusion.
"The little one doesn't know either. Mr. Su Mei should go with the little one."
Except for a very few people in the Gong family who knew her identity, the rest of them regarded her as a distinguished guest of the eldest lady of the Gong family, so they respected her very much.
"All right."
After getting up, she took it as an activity and took a walk.
But when she arrived at her third brother's study, she saw Mrs. Liang and the three young ladies of the Liang family there.
And although the third brother looked normal, she always felt that he was not happy.
"Su Mei has met the dean."
"Well, sit down."
There was a gentle smile on Gong San's face.
Although he was easy-going towards others and rarely spoke harshly, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was different only towards Su Mei.
Regarding this, several women present knew this.
So some people are becoming more jealous, while others are full of doubts.
"Mr. Su Mei, I invited you here today because I have something to ask you."
She nodded, doubts growing in her heart.
But the third brother's tone was an understatement, and he obviously didn't take this matter too seriously.
"I just heard from Mrs. Liang that you want to let them live in Luoyuezhai. Is this possible?"
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows, this really didn't happen.
But before she could deny it, she heard Mrs. Liang say politely.
"Mr. Su Mei is reasonable and knows that there are many of us, so he temporarily let us live in the courtyard. I would like to thank Mr. Su Mei in advance."
