Thinking of what Zhu sister-in-law and Wang Yan said this morning, Wu Ying's attitude softened a lot.
"Girl, don't look at the crowds on the mountain. If Mr. Song and his family can come, at least they will be safe.
Besides, the girl only has this kind of relatives, so after coming here, she also wants to see them often, right?"
Lin Mengya's brows almost twisted into a knot.
The more she heard this, the more strange it became, and she couldn't help but interrupt Wu Ying.
"Did Mr. Wu misunderstand something? Although I wanted to entrust my uncle and aunt to Master Huo before, I now feel that maybe this is not a good choice."
She said sincerely, "I didn't think carefully before. I only thought about Mr. Huo's reputation in the neighborhood, but I forgot that Mr. Huo also has his own enemies."
Seeing Wu Jing's expression change, she immediately explained, "It's not that I dislike the brothers in Black Tiger Village, but I'm afraid that they will become a drag on Mr. Huo."
In fact, before, she also wanted to donate some materials and money to Black Tiger Village in the name of the Song family old couple, so that the Song family old couple could have a relationship with Black Tiger Village.
However, Miss Tao's incident sounded the alarm for her.
Although Mr. Huo is now in charge of Black Tiger Village, it is not his sole responsibility.
If she takes Li Wushuang and the others away in the future, what should she do if someone has evil intentions towards the old couple of the Song family?
Wu Ying's face looked a little uncomfortable, but then he asked in a low voice, "Girl, do you mind Miss Tao?"
Lin Mengya nodded, then shook her head.
"It's not all because of her. To be honest, my uncle and aunt have nothing else but some family property.
Even if these extraneous things were given to Mr. Huo and the brothers in Black Tiger Village, my uncle and aunt would not care.
But I am really afraid that one day they will get into trouble because of their crime."
Lin Mengya didn't know that Wu Ying actually had completely different ideas from hers.
But the two reached an agreement in their own understanding.
Wu Ying's face softened after hearing this.
"Actually, you don't have to worry about Miss Tao. Although our Mr. Huo is a man who repays kindness, he is not confused.
Besides, our Mr. Huo has never thought of marrying Miss Tao, so the girl can rest assured."
Lin Mengya said in her heart that no matter who Mr. Huo marries, it has nothing to do with her. What should she worry about?
But Wu Ying comforted her and said, "I understand the girl's doubts. It's better to go like this. I'll tell Mr. Huo that when the brothers in the village go down, just take more care of the Song family."
The girl is right about one thing. Mr. Song and Mrs. Song are not suitable for running around at their age."
Lin Mengya's brows also softened a lot.
"If that's the case, then I Thank you in advance, Mr. Wu.
I know that there are many shops at the foot of the mountain, and they will pay a part of the money to Heihu Village as protection fees on a regular basis.
Please rest assured, Mr. Wu, our Song family will not be short of this money."
Wu Ying felt that this Miss Song was really polite.
If she can really win Mr. Huo's favor, she will become a family member.
Immediately, I was busy discussing with Mr. Huo how to get along with my father-in-law in the future.
But before leaving, he told Lin Mengya something.
It was said that Miss Tao wanted to see her.
Lin Mengya was really curious. Did Miss Tao meet her for revenge?
However, she felt magnanimous and went to see Miss Tao openly.
Miss Tao still lives in her original room, but compared to the last time she was extremely weak, Miss Tao now is like a butterfly wetted by rain, looking moribund and extremely embarrassed.
Seeing her coming, Miss Tao immediately stood up nervously and wrung her hands tightly together.
Lin Mengya had no intention of embarrassing this poor girl, so she could only calm down and said, "Miss Tao, do you want to see me for anything?"
What she didn't expect was that the girl knelt down in front of her without saying anything.
"I beg you, please save Xiaoju, okay?
I have nothing now, only her, Miss Song, I promise I will never fight with you for Master Huo again, please help me!"
Miss Tao burst into tears. I felt pity for the pear blossoms and the rain. It was really a bit pitiful.
But although Lin Mengya is not a hard-hearted person, she is not a bad person who will be moved by other people's tears.
She immediately dodged and then helped Miss Tao up.
"Let's talk if you have anything to say, and the relationship between me and Mr. Huo is not what you imagined."
Miss Tao flashed her wet eyelashes and said to her doubtfully, "Then I clearly heard them say that Mr. Huo is going to marry you soon."
When Lin Mengya heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
Only then did she realize what was wrong.
It seemed that everyone had misunderstood her and Mr. Huo, and she had to find an opportunity to explain it to everyone.
"Miss Tao, if you really want to save Xiaoju, you should let Xiaoju tell the truth to the people in Black Tiger Village.
They saved your lives. Although I am an outsider, I also feel that you did something wrong."
When Miss Tao heard her words, the tears that she had just stopped burst into tears again.
She shook her head desperately and tried to explain, "I really don't know that Xiaoju would do this, but Xiaoju is doing it for my own good, and I am the one who deserves the most damn."
"Miss Tao has something to say, no matter you are a master and servant or sisters who depend on each other, Xiaoju should not do these things behind your back.
Do you know that if Xiaoju's plan succeeds, many people in Black Tiger Village will die due to your betrayal.
The lives of you master and servant are lives, so don’t the lives of these people in Black Tiger Village also be lives?”
After just a few days of getting along, Lin Mengya saw the shining points of many of these people.
No one is perfect.
Maybe they were vicious bandit bullies outside, but at least in front of her, these people had put away their sharp claws and fangs, showing their kindest side.
She is not a saint, and she has no right to accuse those people of what they did wrong.
Her consistent style is to be nice to anyone who is nice to her.
Moreover, Xiaoju is too thoughtful.
Her self-righteous matchmaking and fulfillment is actually the most unacceptable.
Miss Tao was speechless.
After a moment, she murmured, "I, I asked Xiaoju, and she said that she didn't want to kill anyone, but that someone wanted to talk to Mr. Huo through him."
"What to talk about?"
Miss Tao shook her head.
"Xiaoju didn't tell me, but I know that she, like me, can't bear to hurt others!
Miss Song, she really made an unintentional mistake this time. Please beg Mr. Huo for mercy and let her go this time. I guarantee that she will never dare to do it again next time."
I don't know if Miss Tao has confidence in her maid, or if she is really protected and ignorant of the world.
The last time Xiaoju wanted to scratch her face, she knew that this girl was very difficult to deal with.
At least it's not as simple as Miss Tao said.
"I'm sorry, I'm also a guest of this cottage. I can't really help you with your request."
At this point in her conversation, she felt that there was nothing more to say to the other party, so she stood up and wanted to leave.
Unexpectedly, Miss Tao suddenly rushed up and hugged her leg.
"Please, help me!
As long as you can save Xiaoju's life for me, I can promise you anything and I can do anything for you!"
Lin Mengya asked helplessly, "Even if I can help you, what can you do for me?"
Miss Tao was stunned.
"I, I can serve you as a maid..."
"Miss Tao, you can't even take care of yourself. If Xiaoju hadn't stood up for you everywhere, do you think you could survive in the cottage?" Do you have a foothold in it?"
Miss Tao was dumbfounded and unconsciously let go of her hand.
Lin Mengya knelt down and looked at Miss Tao's level.
"Although Xiaoju did something wrong, she did not abandon you after you lost power. Instead, she still treated you like a young lady, which shows that at least she still has some true feelings for you.
But if you leave Xiaoju, even dressing and eating will be a problem. You also have hands and feet, so why can't you learn to take care of yourself?"
Miss Tao looked at her blankly.
Since Xiao Ju was taken away, she didn't know where to find something to eat when she was hungry. When she was thirsty, she could only drink the herbal tea left on the table.
Until just now, she had only been thinking about how to rescue Xiao Ju, but now she suddenly realized that after leaving Xiao Ju, she actually couldn't do anything.
Lin Mengya patted her shoulder.
"If you really want to save Xiaoju, just show your love as master and servant and let Xiaoju take the blame. Maybe there is still a place for you as master and servant in this Black Tiger Village."
When she said this, she was extremely benevolent and righteous.
Miss Tao froze on the spot and could not come back to her senses for a long time.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya had just walked out of Miss Tao's room when she saw all the men in the village running out in a hurry.
She immediately stopped one of them and asked "What happened?"
The man was holding his own long knife, his face full of anger.
"Someone is knocking on the door. Hurry up and hide with the assistants. Don't come out until it's safe outside!"
After saying that, the man called to his brother and rushed out.
Lin Mengya frowned.
Xiaoju was caught on the front foot, and the enemy came to the door on the back foot. This is too much of a coincidence.
But she couldn't cause trouble for everyone now, so she turned around and went to Miss Tao's house and forcibly pulled her out.
Zhu's sister-in-law and the women in the village took care of the old man, while the children and women hid in the back mountain.
Seeing her coming with Miss Tao, Sister-in-law Zhu rushed up with red eyes and slapped Miss Tao.
"It's you, the Sangmenxing, who recruited these people here!"
Miss Tao was stunned by the slap. She covered her face and looked at Sister-in-law Zhu with a horrified expression.
Lin Mengya quickly separated the two people.
"Now is not the time to talk, let's leave quickly."
Sister-in-law Zhu gritted her teeth.
"Okay, today I will spare her for your sake!"
Later, Sister-in-law Zhu viciously threatened Miss Tao.
"Remember this, if you lose another brother in the village, I will dig a hole in your body!"
