The master of the Fang family was still reading the letter. After a while, he spoke calmly.
"Um."
"Do you have any other orders, sir?" the steward asked eagerly.
Mr. Fang lit the letter on fire and threw the ashes into the tea bowl. .??.
"It's time for our eldest lady to come back, right?"
The housekeeper smiled and said, "Yes, I heard that the young master has asked the young master to come with him this time. I don't know how long the young master can stay in our house this time."
When he mentioned his daughter and grandson, Mr. Fang finally had a smile on his face.
But I don't know what I thought of, but a hint of coldness leaked out of my eyes.
"It's been too chaotic outside recently. Don't let anyone leak the things that A'luo shouldn't know."
The housekeeper also knew his master's taboo, so he said cautiously, "Don't worry, master, no one will mention this matter to the eldest lady."
"That's good, you can go down."
After the housekeeper left, Mr. Fang was still sitting in his chair, thinking about the news he had just received in the letter.
"That scoundrel from the Huo family, huh, he was lucky enough not to die back then, but he actually dared to come to the ancient clan!"
The next moment, Master Fang twisted the mechanism on the bookshelf.
Then, the entrance to a secret room appeared in front of him.
He walked in quickly.
The door was closed again, and no one knew how many bloody plots were left inside.
After sending away the Fang family, Lin Mengya and the others could not take it lightly.
The man they had let go had been taken away by his companions.
Although their people were watching closely from behind, they still couldn't figure out who that person was for a while.
And what surprised her the most was that the other party did not continue to pester them, but chose to leave.
But something happened that made her heart sink.
Those people actually had contact with the Zhao family!
"They must have recognized our identities, so they want to use us in front of the Zhao family in exchange for a reward!"
Wu Ying was always worried.
But it was useless to worry, as the two giant Buddhas remained motionless.
Especially Lin Mengya, not only did she not look like she was running for her life, but she started planting flowers with great interest.
"What's the rush? The soldiers will just come and cover it with water and earth. Wu Ying, what do you think of my flowers?"
Wu Ying was so anxious that her head was covered with sweat, and she was not in the mood to admire her flowers.
"No, I have to tell the boss about this and let him help you think of a solution."
Lin Mengya looked at his hurried back and couldn't help but smile and shake her head.
"Fortunately, he is still a military advisor. He can't keep calm at all."
Next to him, Long Tianyu was holding a large basin.
He looked at his wife tenderly.
"Ignore him, my wife is really a clever person. Hands are obviously just inconspicuous wild flowers, but how come they are more beautiful than peonies in your hands?"
"That's right! You still have vision."
Lin Mengya had no idea what modesty was, and was even a little complacent.
After she had watered all the flowers, she took her man, washed his hands, and returned to the Huo family's study.
"I didn't expect those people to have contact with the Zhao family. But it's okay, the friends of our enemies are our enemies. If they dare to come, I will stew them with a spoonful."
This was said with great pride, but Long Tianyu had a smile on his face.
"I don't think they dare to come directly."
Lin Mengya glanced at her man.
"It's boring."
She thought she could tease her own man like Wu Ying.
Who knew that person didn't give her a chance at all!
"Okay, don't I have some understanding with you, madam?"
Lin Mengya pretended to be disgusted, "Who wants to have a close connection with you?"
Long Tianyu just smiled and said nothing.
In fact, this matter is easy to guess.
The other party's men were obviously familiar with the Huo family, but they sent a group of thieves to steal the Huo family's things.
Obviously, they don't want people to notice the Huo family's secret.
Those thieves don't know anything. Even if they are caught, there is no way to tell who is behind the scenes.
So what if the other party knows the Zhao family?
Unless he wants to share secrets with the Zhao family.
But those thieves and the last killer all came to silence him.
This shows that the other party’s purpose is to monopolize it.
Therefore, although they have to guard against sneak attacks from the other side at any time, at the same time, the other side will also keep this secret.
It has to be said that in some respects, their enemies want to keep this place a secret more than they do.
After being pointed out by Lin Mengya, Wu Ying suddenly realized that she seemed to be a little too impatient.
He locked himself in his room, and after some reflection, he finally regained his lost sanity.
At the same time, Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu also learned some new information.
"The Sheng family was not divided up by those families, but was taken back by the Presbyterian Church. As for those families, for some reason they all agreed."
The news about Long Tianyu came very timely.
After listening to this, Lin Mengya had some bad premonitions in her heart.
"I thought they were going to fight because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, but now it seems that the Presbyterian Church has quite a few tricks up its sleeve."
Although their people spread a lot of news, but in
After the people from the Presbyterian Church came in person, those families received orders from their respective heads.
Now, although everyone still fights over some property, the situation has basically stabilized.
This is what they don't want to see.
"It's just exchanging greater interests for their immediate interests."
He, Long Tianyu, had seen this kind of routine a lot when he was a child.
Lin Mengya was also a little curious.
"How big of a benefit was it that made them give up this opportunity?"
Long Tianyu shook his head.
These matters are too confidential, and they are ordered by each family head, and they all come together with the people from the Presbyterian Church.
It is conceivable that the reason why people from the Presbyterian Church came late was because they went to lobby various families.
"What about the Zhao family?" This is what she is most concerned about.
Now the Zhao family has identified them as murderers and is looking for traces of them everywhere like mad dogs.
Long Tianyu touched her long hair.
"Don't worry, they can't find us."
Lin Mengya rested her head on her man's shoulder.
"We just don't have evidence now, otherwise, I wouldn't be afraid of them."
In a head-to-head confrontation, they may not lose.
But if this happens, they will become street rats in the ancient tribe.
This is not what she wants to see.
"There will be."
Long Tianyu kissed her forehead gently, his eyes firm.
As long as it's something his wife wants to accomplish, he will definitely remove all obstacles.
No one can block her way.
In the next few days, the Huo family's old house was peaceful.
Six days later, everyone's injuries were almost healed.
That person from the Fang family sent someone over again to ask for money, but this time, the person brought a piece of news.
"What? We can only stay here for five more days? Why?"
Lin Mengya was a little surprised.
According to the greediness of the other party, the longer he lives here, the more money he can get.
How can you be willing to chase people away?
The man felt distressed looking at the silver.
You know, the oil and water this time can last for half a year.
For this reason, he also secretly revealed a piece of gossip to Lin Mengya.
"It's not that you, the little ones, want to drive you away, the living God of Wealth, but our eldest lady wants to come here to worship. Alas, our Fang family has a big business and many rules. Please bear with me, Miss."
"Who is your eldest lady?" Although she had already guessed it, she still asked.
"Fang Rao is also the head wife of the Zhao family, and she is the eldest lady of our family."
that person When he was introduced, he looked quite proud.
Lin Mengya, on the other hand, was somewhat unexpected.
Aunt Fang is actually the head wife of the Zhao family!
How much does she know about Zhao Mace?
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, we will disappear completely."
The man left with a lot of thanks.
Lin Mengya told Long Tianyu and Wu Ying the news.
The former remained calm, while the latter exclaimed that he was surprised.
"I only knew that Aunt Fang had married someone else, but I didn't expect that it was the Zhao family!"
But Long Tianyu subconsciously knocked on the armrest of the wheelchair, and then said, "Does the Zhao family know about the relationship between Huo Xiao and Fang Rao?"
Wu Ying reacted immediately, her expression becoming even more ugly.
"I don't know very well either. The marriage between Uncle Huo and Aunt Fang was considered a shame by the Fang family and was not allowed to be spread at all. So apart from us, not many people know about it."
If everyone in the fortune-telling community knew about it, then it wouldn't be a secret.
Even if there is Fang Rao in the Fang family, there may not be anyone in the Zhao family who has intermarryed with foreigners.
If the Zhao family knew about the relationship between Huo Xiao and Fang Rao, then sending Zhao Mace to deal with Huo Xiao would obviously not be that simple.
"Should we leave?" Long Tianyu asked Lin Mengya's opinion.
After thinking for a while, the latter said, "In the past few days, we have tried to find a way to secretly meet Aunt Fang. I think she should help us."
She had to first find out how Aunt Fang felt about the Zhao family.
And what is the relationship between Zhao Mace and Aunt Fang?
The fact that they were framed may have something to do with the Zhao family.
If Aunt Fang is willing to help them, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort for them?
After the three of them agreed, Wu Ying took Long Tianyu to find a relatively secluded place to stay temporarily.
Lin Mengya rushed to Fang's house with Qinghu.
It's only half a day's walk from Bu Ren Town to Fang's house.
But along the way, Lin Mengya felt Qinghu's vague sense of alienation from her.
"you"
Just as she was about to speak, Qinghu took out a pot of water and handed it to her.
"You've been traveling for a long time and you're probably thirsty. You take a sip of water first and I'll explore the road ahead."
Seeing that it was time to reach the Fang family area ahead, Lin Mengya had no objection.
But while she was holding the kettle, her eyes fell on Qinghu who was walking away.
She was sure that Qinghu had recovered.
But why is he not as close to nature as he used to be?
There seemed to be an invisible barrier between the two of them.
It was just that she tried hard to break through, but Qinghu consciously dodged.
