Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 208 A Big Misunderstanding
Lai Shangrong came out of Wang Xifeng Courtyard with his back bent.

I originally thought that Wang Xifeng matched herself with Baochai because of Jia Mu's instructions, but I didn't expect that it was for her to gain power for herself.

Although both parties have the same purpose, considering Wang Xifeng's character, it is certainly impossible to tell her all her thoughts, let alone make any promises to her.

Wang Xifeng saw that he was talking about it, so she thought that he was unwilling to help and was deliberately trying to shirk, so the quarrel was endless.

However, this also strengthened his idea of ​​concealing his plot, so as not to be aware of the conflict of interest in the future.

Putting aside the charm in her heart, she patted the fly of her robe and then walked to the side hall of Rongxi Hall.

"Shang Rong, come quickly!" Jia Zheng warmly greeted him to sit down.

Lai Shangrong hypocritically said: "If Uncle Shi has any errands, just send someone to pass on a message, why are you so polite!"

Jia Zheng smiled brightly and said: "It's so shameful to always trouble Shang Rong for matters in the government!"

"Oh? Uncle Shi has something to do, but it doesn't matter."

Jia Zheng hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't speak. He patted Lai Shangrong on the shoulder and said, "Come on, come on! Let's drink first!"

To say that Aunt Zhao poisoned his wife and son, Jia Zheng acted passively. This time he almost got raped by his son, but he couldn't say it out loud.

Although he wanted to conceal it, he still relied on Lai Shangrong to supervise Jin Chuan and keep the secret.

Therefore, we can only hope that drinking will make people brave.

Lai Shangrong didn't know what he meant, but the guest followed the host, and the two of them pushed the cups and changed the cups.

Because Aunt Zhao had poisoned her and kept it from Mrs. Wang, Jia Zheng couldn't explain it clearly, which made Mrs. Wang worried and Lai Shangrong was unwilling to take over his family's troubles.

Therefore, the couple discussed and decided that Jia Zheng would explain the difficulties and then give Lai Shangrong a hint.

After Lai Shangrong agrees, he will invite Mrs. Wang to come and present him with a golden bracelet.

Unexpectedly, Jia Zheng retreated in the face of the battle. Mrs. Wang waited in the house for half an hour, but no one came to invite her.

Seeing the moon on the branches, I was really impatient to wait, and I was afraid that my husband would behave like his old master and cause negative consequences, so he stepped back and quietly went to the side hall door to peep.

Lai Shangrong in the hall was irritated when he saw Jia Zheng hesitated to speak after drinking for three rounds.

In this hot day, he has no intention of guessing here.

Tiao Ming said: "Uncle Shi asked me to come, but because of Baoyu's business?"

Hearing Lai Shangrong take the initiative to mention it, Jia Zheng couldn't pretend to be stupid anymore, so he said: "Has Shangrong heard about Jin Chuan?"

"Qian'er heard that Yuchai came back."

Because Nao couldn't understand why Jia Zheng suddenly mentioned Jin Chuan, his words were ambiguous, which inadvertently confirmed Mrs. Wang's guess, and she couldn't hold it in any longer.

Afraid that her husband would tell Baoyu something wrong again, she gritted her teeth and pushed the door open without waiting for the summons.

"Shang Rong, listen to me!"

Seeing Mrs. Wang barging in, Jia Zheng, who was drunk and drowsy, suddenly became excited and woke up from most of the wine.

But instead, she swayed and muttered: "Husband...why are you here, madam? I, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, he lay down on the table and pretended to be drunk.

The reason why he pretended to be drunk was that he was mostly sober from alcohol, but he was too embarrassed to speak.

Secondly, he didn't know how long Mrs. Wang had been listening to her. She had told Lai Shangrong about the bitterness of Aunt Zhao's incident in order to pave the way for entrusting Jin Chuan, but she just thought that Mrs. Wang had listened to it all.

I felt that I couldn't see Mrs. Wang again, so I just pretended to be drunk to escape.

Mrs. Wang thought he was embarrassed to speak, which was exactly what she wanted.

Ignoring Jia Zheng, he hurriedly said: "Shang Rong doesn't know. I promised this golden necklace to Baoyu. Who knew that the master wanted to take over the house a while ago? Before I even had time to tell Baoyu, this happened all of a sudden. Misunderstand.

Master Pian always cherishes his face, he doesn't have our mother and son in his heart, if the incident last time hadn't been honored, our mother and son might be... Sigh!How long did it take for you to feel better?He also beat Baoyu out of half his life. "

Jia Zheng, who was lying on the table, heard Mrs. Wang talking about poisoning, and became more sure that the previous words had been eavesdropped. He was too embarrassed to raise his head, so he had to pretend to snore.

Lai Shangrong didn't expect that things went around in circles, and he went back to his original guess.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang didn't seem to be asking for help, she asked tentatively: "I wonder if my nephew can help me in any way?"

Mrs. Wang glanced at Jia Zheng, who was lying on the table and snoring.

"I thought that Yuchai is with you now, so why not send Jinchai as well, firstly, the sisters can be a companion, and secondly, I can also ask Shangrong to help cover up."

Lai Shangrong didn't expect that such a good thing would happen. He thought it was a bargain, but he didn't expect that he could raise the price on the ground.

He is a businessman by nature, how could he let go of this opportunity.

It's just that the asking price is too high for fear of backfire. Thinking that the Yuchuan sisters have gone to their own homes, but their parents are still in Rongfu, they will inevitably be under control in the future.

It's better to get rid of this trouble, and feel more at ease when dispatching in the future.Then he laughed and said: "It just so happens that Yu Chuan always said a while ago that her father and mother are both in the house. Although they are not far away, it is still inconvenient to visit. Why don't you go to my house together."

Mrs. Wang's original intention was to keep Jin Chuan's parents, so as to restrain her from talking nonsense, but her family already had requests, and Lai Shangrong spoke again, so it was naturally difficult to refute.

"Is this natural, or is Shang Rong thoughtful? In this way, their family will be reunited, and our master and servant will not be in vain."

Then he said: "Then Shang Rong is waiting here. I'll go get the body deed. You can take him back when you get back."

"Yeah!" Lai Shangrong agreed.

Mrs. Wang guessed that Jia Zheng was pretending to be drunk and was afraid that he would gossip while she was away, so she carried Lai Shangrong on her back, leaned close to his ear, and whispered: "Stop pretending, I'll help you back!"

Jia Zheng just thought that she wanted to ask him to accuse him, so he started making fun of her. Without raising his head, he stretched out his hand and pushed Mrs. Wang to stagger.

Her summer clothes were already thin, and Mrs. Wang was sandwiched between Lai Shangrong and Jia Zheng. She leaned over and placed a ripe peach in front of Lai Shangrong.

Just as he was staring intently, suddenly he rushed towards him, and in a panic, he wanted to reach out his hand to block it.

Unexpectedly, Jia Zheng used brute force in order to perform a realistic performance, and the incident happened so suddenly that he didn't have time to react. It slipped through his fingers and hit Lai Shangrong's arms directly.

As soon as Mrs. Wang resisted her body, her feet became unsteady again, and she sat on Lai Shangrong's lap.

Lai Shangrong couldn't avoid the sudden collision. In order to maintain balance, he couldn't help but reach forward with his hands, trying to grab the edge of the table to stabilize his body.

After scratching randomly, he actually caused unnecessary contact. Fortunately, he paid attention to exercise on weekdays and was broad and healthy, so he finally did not fall backwards.

It's just that this posture is quite inelegant, as if he was holding Mrs. Wang on his lap. For a while, he only focused on watching Jia Zheng's reaction, and he forgot to let go in embarrassment.

Mrs. Wang was also ordinary. Looking at Jia Zheng who was still pretending to sleep, she felt ashamed and angry for a moment.

Thinking that he was unconscious and controlled by Lai Shangrong, he kept telling himself to avoid suspicion, but now he pushed himself into Lai Shangrong's arms for the sake of face.

In addition, it aroused Baoyu's resentment for being beaten, and he began to think of revenge.

But not enough to do anything unclean.

He stood up from Lai Shangrong while supporting the table.

Turning his back, he said: "Since the master is so drunk, Shang Rong, please go back to your room with me to get the body deed!"

She was thinking that Jia Zheng wanted to avoid suspicion, so she asked Lai Shangrong to go back to the room and forced him to get up.

It's just that Jia Zheng misunderstood her purpose. He didn't remember to avoid suspicion, so he just covered his head and continued to pretend to be drunk.

Mrs. Wang was unable to get off the tiger, and because of the collision just now, she did not dare to see Lai Shangrong, so she had to go out and hope that Lai Shangrong would not follow.

Lai Shangrong treated Jia Zheng as a guest and acted inexplicably again and again, causing misunderstandings.

Thinking back to past lives, there were also people with special hobbies.

Is it possible that Jia Zheng is also such a person?
Did you even convince Mrs. Wang?Otherwise, how could such an invitation be issued?
Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still anymore and chased Mrs. Wang and slammed the door out.

Although it is unavoidable to be spied on by Jia Zheng, wouldn't it be even more...

Following Mrs. Wang into the house, she found that there was not even a maid, which further confirmed what she was thinking.

Although Jin Chuan's body deed had been prepared, Mrs. Wang did not expect that Lai Shangrong would ask for her family, so she had to bend down and rummage in the box.

When she saw Lai Shangrong following him into the house, she was already panicking. Thinking of the scene in the side hall, she felt hot and uncomfortable behind her.

Everyone understands the principle of getting faster and slower, and you can't find something that you can find in a moment, but you can't find it after three or five minutes.

Lai Shangrong also misunderstood, thinking that Mrs. Wang was timid, he stepped forward.

At this moment, Mrs. Wang finally turned around. She didn't know that Lai Shangrong was approaching, and just wanted to send him away quickly. She stood up, turned around, and took steps in one go.

When Lai Shangrong saw that he had just approached, Mrs. Wang threw herself into her arms. Without any hesitation, he hugged Mrs. Wang who had crashed into his arms, and his restless hands reached for the ripe peach. .

Mrs. Wang felt horrified and suddenly pushed him away.

He raised his hands to protect his body, glared at him, and lowered his voice: "You! What are you doing?"

Only then did Lai Shangrong realize that he had made a mistake, but fortunately he still had some quick wits.

He touched his nose and said, "I saw my wife hadn't moved for a long time, so I wanted to come up to see if I could help, but unexpectedly my wife bumped into me..."

Although Mrs. Wang felt a brush behind her in a daze, considering the urgency of the situation, she was indeed a little panicked, just like in a side hall.

Besides, it was true that he was walking too hastily and did not dare to say anything.

He hurriedly handed over three body deeds and urged: "Get your things and leave quickly!"

Lai Shangrong had a guilty conscience and wanted to escape from the scene as soon as possible. He took over the contract and ran away.
