The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 101 Jia Zhen: Be more careful

"We've been talking for so long, but what results have we come up with?"

As soon as he left Rong Mansion, Jia Zhen couldn't wait to ask.

"This Second Sister-in-law Lian is really hard to deal with. It's really not easy to snatch food from her mouth. I spent a lot of effort to make her let go."

Although Jia Zhen returned an hour later, Zhang Yunyi wanted to intimidate Wang Xifeng, so they did not have time to discuss too many details.

He only finalized the purchase of the little actor, and that he and Jia Zhen would fully cooperate afterwards.

Fortunately, Jia Zhen knew that Wang Xifeng was quite difficult to deal with, so he left him enough time.

Of course, it was because Zhang Yunyi had laid the groundwork in advance and said he would fight for his interests that he hesitated for so long.

Hearing Zhang Yunyi's sigh, Jia Zhen couldn't help but echoed, "That's right! You don't know, it's said that the husband is the leader of the wife, but Lian Er can't even raise his head in front of her. Brother, you should marry someone you know well. At the very least, she should be as obedient as your sister-in-law."

Speaking of being obedient, he looked at Zhang Yunyi and gave a knowing smile, which was quite vulgar.

Seeing him acting like this, Zhang Yunyi began to doubt whether he was mentally twisted or had some bad habits.

"Cough cough!"

He was worried that Jia Zhen really had some unknown hobby, and might make unreasonable requests such as watching from the sidelines. He quickly coughed to cover up his embarrassment and changed the subject: "The hat is only one foot big. After all, it is the Rong Mansion's business. We can't go too far."

Zhang Yun逸 actually misunderstood Jia Zhen. Jia Zhen was taking advantage of the opportunity to remind Zhang Yun逸 to be cautious in marriage, with the purpose of paving the way for the marriage.

However, he was used to being vulgar, and his true nature was revealed unconsciously, which led to Zhang Yunyi misunderstanding.

When talking about immediate interests, Jia Zhen did not care about the long-term, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes! Brother, don't you understand this? She eats meat, and we drink porridge."

Soup obviously couldn't satisfy him, so he upgraded it to porridge instead.

"It's good that you understand, brother. But if you want to justify it, you still need to find some reasons."

"Oh?"

"The walls, pavilions, bamboo trees, rocks, pavilions, railings, etc. that were demolished from Huifang Garden can all be moved here and let Rong Mansion price them one by one. Then we only need to do some tricks on the valuation, which can not only shut others up, but also bring in more profits."

"Yes, yes, yes! There's nowhere to put it after we tear it down anyway!"

"She has already agreed to hand over the matter of purchasing actors. If Brother Zhen wants a job making gold and silver utensils, that will be enough."

At this point, he paused and said thoughtfully, "But I'm afraid I'll have to go to Gusu to buy actors, and it will take at least half a year. Does the mansion have a suitable candidate?"

I remember that it cost 20,000 taels of silver to buy the twelve little actors. You have to know that this is not a small amount of money. For example, when Jia She failed to force Yuanyang to marry him, he bought Yanhong, and when Xue Pan bought Xiangling, they only spent 800 taels of silver.

The average salary of these twelve actors was more than twice as high, which shows how much was defrauded.

He didn't mind who got the lucrative position, but since he wanted the original version of the Dream of the Red Chamber, he couldn't do without those little actors.

In the original novel, this task was done by Jia Rong and Jia Qiang, who followed Wang Xifeng's connections.

Now that the situation has changed, he is worried that Jia Zhen has another candidate, so he wants to find out what he thinks first.

When Jia Zhen heard him asking if there were any suitable candidates, he thought he wanted to have a piece of the pie, so he said hurriedly, "Don't worry, brother. I know what to do. Let Qiang'er handle this matter. I will definitely tell him to find two outstanding Yangzhou skinny horses for you."

He seemed to be worried that Zhang Yunyi would object, and said with a lewd smile: "Qiang'er is a pretty child, and she looks like a girl. To be honest, if father hadn't heard some gossip, I would not have let him move out. This time you arranged a job for him, he will definitely be grateful. If you are interested, I will help you..."

"Forget it!" Zhang Yunyi suppressed the urge to vomit, and before he could finish his words, he interrupted him, "Brother, I only like women, not this kind!" "Okay!" Jia Zhen seemed to be worried that he would regret it, and immediately nodded and said, "Since my cousin doesn't like male homosexuality, I won't force it. Let him choose two for you later..."

"Forget it! I have no objection to whatever arrangements my brother makes, as long as he gets the job done!"

"In that case, I won't be polite to you anymore." Jia Zhen seemed to feel a little embarrassed. He hesitated for a moment and said cryptically, "Or I can ask your sister-in-law to come over. If there is anything that is inconvenient to tell you, you can tell her."

This time, facing Jia Zhen’s sincere kindness, Zhang Yun逸 did not refuse.

"That's fine! I have nowhere to use the royal satin that the emperor gave me last time, so I'll let my sister-in-law go over and choose two pieces to make two sets of clothes!"

Hearing this, Jia Zhen said shamelessly: "Then you have to help her, brother, and look carefully at her body!"

……

Rongfu.

Wang Xifeng tiptoed and pushed open the door of the empty house beside the corridor behind the courtyard.

As soon as she stepped in, she couldn't help but take a deep breath, and a look of intoxication appeared on her face.

But then, she suddenly reacted and raised her hand to fan her nose in an attempt to cover up her mistake.

Pointing at a black shadow on the ground, she scolded, "You little slut, you don't know the time or place for moaning. Are you trying to alert the whole mansion so that you can take the opportunity to get in? I'm standing guard for you outside, and my heart is about to jump out of my chest!"

Zhang Yun逸 was able to distinguish the importance of things, and Ping兒 also tried her best to suppress it, so the noise was not that exaggerated.

However, Wang Xifeng, who was standing guard in the aisle, felt like a heavy drum beating on her heart.

Hearing the scolding, Ping'er, who was lying on the ground, took a deep breath, then slowly raised her head and looked at Wang Xifeng and said, "Madam, please stop talking about this servant. Who else can hold back and not say anything?"

When Wang Xifeng heard this, she was suddenly speechless.

What you hear is not as true as what you see. Although she did not see it with her own eyes, the lingering decadent aura and the sound like heavy drums and thunder hammers were both evidence.

What's more, there was Ping'er lying on the ground, limp and powerless after such a long time.

Originally, Jia Zhen left and returned not long after Zhang Yun逸 came out, and she just thought of it as Ping'er to avoid being discovered.

But after waiting for a long time, she still didn't come back, so I came over to find out what was going on.

I didn't expect that it would take so long and I still haven't recovered.

Seeing that she remained silent and did not scold him, Ping'er became bolder and said jokingly, "In the past, madam would have cried and screamed, let alone this time for me?"

"Pooh!" Wang Xifeng spat, "What nonsense are you talking about! Hurry up and get up!"

Fortunately, it was dark, otherwise the redness on her cheeks would have been seen.

"It's not that I don't want to get up, it's just that my legs are shaking and I can't stand up... Grandma, don't you think that there is no bed to lie on here? Even if I stand for so long, I will feel sore, not to mention..."

"Bah! Do you want me to carry you back?"

"Grandma, help me up first, and I'll try to walk..."
