There was actually a mistress in the house, but she didn't find any trace of her along the way.
I just don’t know what kind of woman it would be that could attract Dongfang Xu’s eyes.
As the housekeeper reached the depths of the inner courtyard, a small courtyard that looked very quiet appeared in front of her.
"Miss, please rest here first. Everything has to wait until I come back from my hometown. I feel sorry for you, miss."
Lin Mengya nodded, but she didn't feel a little awkward. ??
On other people's territory, she naturally had to be smarter and not cause any trouble to others.
The courtyard had a nice view and the house was nice, but the smell of dust in the air still made her realize that the place should only be cleaned roughly.
However, at least the tables, chairs, benches, quilts and pillows inside are all new.
It must be because inviting her here was just a coincidence.
If that fifth master hadn't come to make trouble today, Dongfang Xu might not have been able to find him.
After all, I still blame that guy.
It's best not to let her meet that guy again next time, otherwise she will never be polite!
Sitting at the edge of the table, Lin Mengya tapped her fingers on the table unconsciously.
The room is indeed very nice and tastefully decorated.
It would be more than enough to imprison her.
The reason why Dongfang Xu locked her up was simply to use her to threaten Xiaoyu.
Nowadays, the incident between her and Xiaoyu has caused an uproar in the palace. A big family like the Dongfang family may not know about it.
With Dongfang Xu's love for Axiu, he was naturally very anxious and wanted to give Axiu a good home.
However, since Dongfang Xu knew his identity and the relationship between Axiu and himself, he actually took the risk to escort him back, which was a little too anxious.
After all, others don't know, but they know completely that they and Long Tianyu are a couple.
If it wasn't something that had to be done, or it had to be done at this time, Dongfang Xu would not have taken the risk.
What’s the secret behind this?
She stayed in the small courtyard obediently. Before she could call anyone in, someone brought her hot tea, melons and fruits. Not only were they of top quality, but they were also extremely fresh.
Without Lin Mengya's instructions, the maids automatically placed the things on the table in front of her.
After the placement was completed, they all quietly retreated out. Even Lin Mengya had no chance to strike up a fight.
It seems that Dongfang Xu deliberately made himself mute.
"well--"
Lin Mengya let out a long sigh and lay down on the table.
I don’t know if Bai Su has informed the news Deliver it, she doesn't want to waste time here.
Lin Mengya glanced across the door inadvertently, and a figure quietly appeared in the corner of her window, which made Lin Mengya energetic.
Lin Mengya stood still and continued to slump on the table as a prop. It wasn't until the sneaky figure disappeared that Lin Mengya got up from the table.
It's strange, who would come to spy on her?
With curiosity in mind, Lin Mengya subconsciously wanted to follow him out.
But when she arrived outside the yard, she saw the housekeeper hurriedly heading towards her yard.
He hurriedly ran back to the yard, rolled onto the bed again, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Fortunately, the housekeeper didn't come to confirm in person. He just took a look through the door and left quietly.
The people here are really strange. Why do they like to peek at a stranger like her so much?
Lying on her arms, Lin Mengya felt more and more weird the more she thought about it.
Not long after, there was another noise outside.
Lin Mengya originally thought it was the housekeeper's departure and return, or Dongfang Xu's arrival.
But when she sat up and straightened her messed up clothes, several beautiful figures appeared in front of her.
"Madam, this woman was welcomed back by the housekeeper from outside the house today!"
A high-pitched voice, slightly harsh.
Lin Mengya frowned and realized that there was a woman standing in front of her who was gorgeously dressed, beautiful, but with a bit of anger between her eyebrows.
Judging from the title, she should be the hostess here.
However, her intuition told her that this lady seemed to have misunderstood something.
For example, those angry looks that almost ate her up speak volumes.
At this moment, whether to explain or not to explain has become one of the problems she currently encounters.
"Meet Madam."
Finally, Lin Mengya bowed generously.
She is also someone who has been in the palace. She can deal with no matter how difficult people are, let alone the woman in front of her who is obviously a resentful woman?
As expected, the lady seemed a little uncomfortable with her proactive overtures.
After looking at her with disdain, he said arrogantly
"You do understand the rules. Since I can bring you in, you must understand the rules of our house. Otherwise, you won't be able to survive here."
This misunderstanding is a bit big!
Lin Mengya smiled helplessly in her heart. She is such an innocent and good person, why is she always involved in such things?
"Madam may have misunderstood. Helan is not Mr. Dongfang's confidante. Helan is just a small female official in the palace, and she is just here to do things on orders."
Hearing that she was a female official in the palace, the eyes of the masters and maids across from her widened.
"What? You are a female official, so how did the master know you? Does it mean that the master dares to touch people in the palace?"
Oh my god! Lin Mengya really wanted to hit her to death.
She had already stated that she was here for business, so why did this lady still want to lead her into becoming an adulterer?
Suppressing her temper, Lin Mengya took out the token that belonged to Mrs. Jingrou from her arms and presented it with both hands.
"Madam, please see, this is proof of Helan's identity. Helan is really just here to do business, nothing else."
Madam Dongfang looked at the token in her hand doubtfully, but when she saw Madam Jingrou's logo on it, her expression changed.
"Could it be that Mrs. Jingrou has agreed to Axiu's entry into the palace? How could it be possible? Doesn't His Highness Ninth Prince already have a sweetheart?"
However, Mrs. Dongfang seemed to be even more shocked than before.
Lin Mengya didn't know how to answer, so she could only smile, then lower her head and pretend to be dead.
"Forget it, if that's the case, then just wait here. If I find out that you lied to me, whether you are a female official in the palace or someone else, I will never let you go!
"
The token was returned to her hand, and in Lin Mengya's cramped smile, the maids and their women twisted their slender waists and disappeared from her sight.
"Madam, if the female officer really proposed to Miss Axiu, wouldn't your plan be -"
Outside the window, the maid lowered her voice, but Lin Mengya, who had sharp ears, heard a voice.
But it was because of the word "Axiu" that she paid extra attention.
"It doesn't matter, it seems that she is just a female official here to do something. That little bitch Axiu will definitely not be able to escape from my grasp. That ninth prince's eyes are higher than his head, how is it possible that he would marry a blind man."
The lady's somewhat proud reply came to my ears.
Lin Mengya thought about it, but felt a little uneasy.
She didn't know what this lady was planning, but judging from her tone, it seemed that she wanted to marry Axiu to someone else.
Suddenly I understood why Dongfang Xu was so anxious.
I'm afraid there must be some kind of connection between them.
A little anxious, Lin Mengya finally waited for Dongfang Xu's arrival.
His face was still a little livid. It seemed that after she left, this uncle who was heartbroken for Axiu, There are other things to do.
"Mr. Dongfang, I have something to ask you."
Standing up, Lin Mengya said urgently,
But Dongfang Xu waved his hand and sat in front of her with a somewhat lonely expression. After a long time, he sighed.
"Oh, it's me who's sorry for my sister-in-law, and it's also me who's sorry for Axiu!"
These words made Lin Mengya hold back her questions.
It took her a while to find a suitable opportunity and asked cautiously.
"What exactly are you worried about?"
If before Mrs. Dongfang came, she thought that Dongfang Xu was just using her as a condition to force Xiaoyu to marry Axiu.
But now, she felt that there was a lot of compulsion in this man's behavior.
"Miss Lin, I know you are thoughtful and smart, please, please save Axiu!"
With that said, Dongfang Xu was about to kneel down to Lin Mengya.
The latter immediately stopped his behavior and said, "Good boy, Dongfang Xu is almost like her father."
If she knelt down like this, she would lose three years of her life!
"Sir, please don't be like this. If you have anything to do, just say it. I will never refuse anything I can do."
It was about Axiu, so she had to be nervous.
After receiving her affirmative answer, Dongfang Xu's gloomy look did not ease much.
"Speaking of this, it's actually all my fault. If my wife hadn't been blinded by lard, she wouldn't have done such a thing. Since Axiu became blind because of that reason, I originally planned to find a solution for her.
A suitable son-in-law. But that woman actually wanted to marry Axiu to that lunatic of the Xin family! I beat her in anger, but I didn’t expect that she would intensify her behavior and actually incite other forces in the family, thinking
You want to force me to submit! I have known Axiu since she was a child, and I will never allow anyone to send her to a wolf den!"
Even Lin Mengya didn't expect that things would turn out like this.
"That lunatic from the Xin family, is that Xin Li?"
Dongfang Xu nodded, with a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Who else could be there besides him? That madman is not a normal person at all. It is said that he married the first wife at the age of fifteen, but within three days, he was beaten to death by him. Later, there were several
Several women were sent to him, but each ended more tragically than the last. My Axiu is the apple of my eye, my brother’s and my sister-in-law’s, how could I let him ruin her!”
Dongfang Xu spoke with such emotion that Lin Mengya also became anxious.
Not to mention Xin Li's weird temperament, even the inhuman and violent aura exuding from that person is not something that ordinary people can resist.
