He has deep feelings for his nominal sister and actual uncle.
"The head of the Gong family should know about my family's affairs, right?"
It was his suggestion to ask Li Wushuang to go to the temple for help.
However, my father rarely raised any objection.
You must know that my father and grandfather have always regarded Li Wushuang's secret as extremely important.
This is not only because Li Wushuang is their relative, but more importantly, once the gods find out about it at this time, the Li family will be completely devastated.
Therefore, when his father agreed to his proposal, it was equivalent to leaving the fate of the entire Li family in Gong Ya's hands.
Fortunately, he didn't make a mistake.
And my father, who has always been bold and careful, did not lose the bet this time.
Lin Mengya nodded, said nothing else, and asked him about his next plan.
"My injuries are no longer in the way. I want to go back and save my people now."
Li Ao was already extremely anxious.
After he left with the people, although he couldn't rush in to save them, he did not stop monitoring.
At the same time, he also allocated part of his attention to pay attention to the internal trends of the ancient tribe.
Lin Mengya held him down and said disapprovingly, "I think the top priority is to recover from your injuries. The key to what happens next depends on you. Your Highness and I can only wish you a helping hand."
The ancient clan is a self-contained entity, and before it is absolutely certain, it must not take over the role.
Once it ferments into conflicts within and outside the ancient clan, the elders will raise their arms and she will become the enemy of the entire ancient clan.
If the Li family resolves it themselves, it will be a conflict within the ancient clan, and naturally some people will stand up to oppose it.
She still understands this truth.
"But now I have no ability and no reputation."
Li Ao looked at his hands helplessly, hating his own incompetence in his heart.
Lin Mengya thought for a moment, then said, "Have you ever heard of 'divination people'?"
Li Ao nodded, but there was some doubt in his eyes.
"I heard it from the elders in the clan, but our Li family doesn't object to intermarriage with foreign clans, and we haven't had a few fortune tellers."
"What do you think if they join forces with you?"
Li Ao was stunned.
After thinking deeply, he spoke carefully.
"I only heard that because these diviners were not recognized by the Shangxian clan, they were not allowed to meet their relatives in the ancient clan after they were born.
My grandfather's generation still had some contact with them, and I heard that the attitude within the clan was quite relaxed at that time. As long as you choose to leave your clan, you can intermarry with outsiders.
Later, for some reason, they became more and more strict, and they even did some not-so-good things."
Li Ao is a gentleman, and there are some things he cannot say out loud. But Lin Mengya only needs to know the attitude of the ancient tribe towards these diviners.
Decades ago, there was some relaxation within the ancient tribe.
From this point of view, there are still many people who hope to be reunited with their own flesh and blood, right?
What about the parents and relatives of these people?
There must be some who want to miss the flesh and blood outside.
Even if it's just a small group of people, they don't even dare to show it easily.
But these people are also other people's husbands, wives, brothers and sisters.
If this is the case, then this matter will be much easier to handle.
"That's enough. To be honest, those fortune tellers didn't live a very good life. They were even secretly caught working hard in an iron mine."
She didn't hide the iron ore matter from Li Ao.
The mine is here and she can't move it away.
Rather than expending energy on covering up, it is better to let the Li family know that they are the closest to here and can help her take care of it in the future.
After listening to her story, Li Ao felt even more uncomfortable.
Perhaps because of his empathy, he felt more sympathy for the diviners and more indignant towards those ruthless people.
"How could these people do this? People are human beings too! Even if their parents made a mistake in giving birth to them, what is their fault?"
"I think everyone should have the right to choose the person to spend their life with." Lin Mengya said to Li Ao seriously.
Li Ao looked into her eyes, and his heart moved slightly.
There seemed to be something stirring quietly.
Maybe he doesn't understand it now, but he will definitely be shocked in the future.
"I don't think there is anything wrong with those who bravely pursue love. As long as it does not violate conscience and morality, those inhumane rules should not be followed at all.
Do you think that the Li family should be used as tools for people to make fun of themselves after they were born?"
Her rhetorical question made something in Li Ao's heart come out.
"Everyone is born to be his own master. We come naked and go naked. The only thing we hold tightly in our hands is our own destiny.
But if even this is taken away, what do we have left?”
She is never confused.
Because she always knew where the road under her feet was going to lead.
Even if she feels sleepy for a while, she will move forward unswervingly towards her goal.
She is defenseless, but she can tightly grasp her destiny.
At this moment, Li Ao finally understood why those people were impressed by her.
Probably because of unwillingness.
Not willing to live a life that was destined long ago; not willing to annihilate all of his desires; not willing to become a puppet in someone's hands.
"I-I want to meet them."
Li Ao suddenly felt an urgent urge.
He wanted to witness with his own eyes how these people, who were destined to be abandoned by fate since birth, struggled.
Lin Mengya smiled.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements."
If everything goes well, the cooperation between Li Ao and Huo Xiao will definitely tear a big hole in the ancient tribe, which is blocked at all levels.
When the time comes, it will be convenient for her to act accordingly.
After achieving her wish, Lin Mengya stood up and left, but as soon as she walked into the yard, she saw Uncle Cai squatting at the door of the back room, glaring at them fiercely.
Li Ao was a little embarrassed.
After all, the other party was his savior, so he could only explain it to her.
"Actually, Uncle Cai is a very good man. There must be some misunderstanding between you two."
Lin Mengya could be considered to have "experienced" the other party's character.
It's just that she has no actual conflict with the other party and doesn't want to get into trouble.
"I know, Mr. Li, don't worry."
But Uncle Cai just spat at her coldly.
"Heartless thing! If I had known you were so ungrateful, I shouldn't have been so soft-hearted and rescued you!"
His granddaughter was standing next to Uncle Cai.
Hearing this, he didn't react at all. He just stood beside him and looked curiously in Lin Mengya's direction.
Li Ao felt very guilty after being scolded, so he stepped forward and bowed deeply.
"Uncle's kindness in saving my life is something I will never forget. No matter what conditions uncle proposes in the future, I will comply with them. It's just that Miss Lingdang is still young, and I don't want to delay her life."
Cai Lingdang smiled secretly at Li Ao.
This is the best!
Anyway, the other party doesn’t want to marry, so grandpa can’t force her to marry!
Uncle Cai's face was ashen.
"Okay, okay! You can leave now, just think that I am blind and saved the wrong person!"
After saying that, the old man left angrily.
Cai Lingdang chased after him worriedly, and before leaving, she looked back at Lin Mengya.
"Go and coax your grandpa."
To be honest, she quite likes this little girl.
It's rare to see someone with such a pure mind that he lacks any eyesight, not to mention this girl is really fun.
Li Ao sighed.
It's not like he can't marry Lingdang, he just needs to take her back and take good care of her as his sister. However, he really couldn't bear to delay the girl's happiness.
"Seriously, don't you like this little girl?"
Lin Mengya showed off her gossip spirit.
On the contrary, he was proud and had a sad face.
"My love for her is not a relationship between a man and a woman. Moreover, Uncle Cai saved my life. If I do this, isn't it repaying kindness with hatred?"
This is true.
She looked at Uncle Cai's house, thoughtfully.
Although this old man has a bad temper, his methods are also somewhat radical.
But she could see that what Uncle Cai cared about most was the bell.
Li Ao said that he had clearly rejected it several times before. If this was the case, then why did Uncle Cai insist on pushing the bell to Li Ao?
She always felt that something was wrong here.
It's just that there were too many things, and she thought about them for a while before being replaced by other things.
After returning from the woods, Lin Mengya's mood became much calmer.
Standing at the door, she took a deep breath, then exhaled it slowly, and then quietly opened the door.
"came back?"
In the room, Long Tianyu's voice suddenly came.
Even though she was prepared, she couldn't help being startled.
She quickly lit the candle and saw Long Tianyu sitting at the table, looking at her intently.
"Why don't you light the lamp yourself?"
She walked over and gently squeezed his shoulders.
This guy didn't know how long he had been sitting here, he was very stiff.
Long Tianyu lowered his eyes, covering the fire reflected in his eyes.
"No, I'm just waiting for you."
"Fool, it's not like I won't come back. You have to light the lamp while you wait for me."
Lin Mengya had something in her mind, so she didn't hear the complexity hidden in Long Tianyu's words.
"You will come back."
He said softly, almost to himself.
Lin Mengya felt strange instead.
"If I don't come back, where else will I go? What's wrong with you? Did you take the wrong medicine at night?"
She touched Long Tianyu's forehead and was wondering if he was talking nonsense because he had a fever. Unexpectedly, the man suddenly pulled her into his arms.
The passionate kiss that also contained some other meaning was suppressed.
She is still in his arms! He can still kiss her! He can still have him!
Throughout the night, Long Tianyu was personally confirming this fact.
But Lin Mengya, who was overwhelmed by his enthusiasm, didn't know why this man suddenly went crazy until the end.
Although there was nothing wrong with it, the next day, she knew the other party's sinister intentions.
