The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 11: Warm men are not as good as scumbags

There is no need to say how to bury him.

Two hours later, Zhang Yun逸 followed Jia Jing and Jia Zhen onto the return carriage.

Just as they sat down on both sides of Jia Jing, they saw Youshi following in.

Jia Zhen blew his beard and glared, "How can you speak here?"

Yu-shi ignored him and said to Jia Jing, "I was in charge of many things yesterday. I was afraid that the master would ask about it, so I followed him."

After she said that, Jia Zhen couldn't stop her. Besides, he needed Youshi's help to cover up for the two maids Baozhu and Ruizhu, so he let her sit next to him.

Youshi had no choice but to do so. She was planning on having Jia Zhen drive Jiao Da away, most likely hiding it from Jia Jing, and she had to use Zhang Yun逸 as an excuse.

If it wasn't done in front of him, even if he used Jiao Da as an example, Jia Zhen would certainly make all kinds of excuses. Even if Jia Jing went to Zhang Yunyi to verify it later, Jia Zhen might ask him to help cover it up. It would be better to do it in front of the three of them and avoid the possibility of collusion and confession.

Zhang Yun逸 had no idea that Jia Zhen had used him as an excuse to do so many things that night.

It would be nice to have a beautiful woman across from me to feast my eyes on, so I wouldn't object.

The carriage started slowly.

Seeing that the topic had turned to the arrangement of Zhang Yunyi entering the mansion, Jia Jing followed suit and said, "Your cousin is about to return home. Have you dealt with that ignorant servant?"

"My lord, when I got home yesterday, I beat them each with forty sticks and took them to the farm outside the city overnight."

Yu Shi was just worrying about how to start the conversation so as not to arouse Jia Zhen's suspicion. Unexpectedly, she got the chance as soon as she got on the car. She hurriedly sighed calmly, "Poor Jiao Da, he is almost eighty years old. I wonder if he can hold on."

Jiao Da?

Zhang Yunyi laughed secretly. He remembered that when the original owner announced the death, Jiao Da was not among those who tried to stop them. Most likely, Jia Zhen took the opportunity to take revenge.

Even though he didn't know what Jia Zhen had planned yesterday, he, who had read Red Mansions, knew what Jiao Da was yelling about...

However, after being exposed by Youshi in front of Jia Jing, it is unknown how Jia Zhen will end up.

With a joking attitude, he looked at Jia Zhen.

Sure enough, Jia Zhen became furious. He turned sideways, raised his foot, and kicked Youshi in the heart.

He thought Jia Zhen was angry and embarrassed, but he didn't expect that he would be so direct in front of Jia Jing and himself.

Youshi was completely stunned. She thought that it was too late for Jia Zhen to explain, but she didn't expect that the revenge would come so quickly and so cruelly.

He was so cruel in front of Jia Jing, and I don’t know how he tortured himself behind his back.

She was so frightened that she even forgot to keep her body steady and was kicked out by Jia Zhen.

Seeing that Youshi was about to fall out of the car, Zhang Yunyi stepped forward and held Youshi's waist and hips, saying righteously, "What are you doing, cousin?"

Finally, Youshi stabilized her body and came to her senses. She felt a lot of friction behind her and almost collapsed to the ground.

Unexpectedly, this was not the end. Zhang Yunyi seemed to have foreseen the future and clamped her arm from under her armpit, shouting, "Sister-in-law, be careful!"

After what happened, she no longer dared to expect Jia Zhen to protect her. She just hoped that he would not see her and use it as an excuse to put the blame on her.

Ignoring the pain in his chest, he quickly raised his head to look at Jia Zhen, and saw that he was kneeling in front of Jia Jing with his back to him. He then breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Jia Jing who was sitting upright. He saw that he was staring down at Jia Zhen who was kneeling on the ground. He finally put his heart at ease.

Jia Jing was preoccupied with the lawsuit at the moment. He had no idea that Jia Zhen had any personal grudge against him. Instead, he understood Jia Zhen's approach.

It was a complete show. Since they were all kicked out of the house, it was really eye-catching that only Jiao Da was exempted from punishment.

Moreover, it is only reasonable that he could not bear the beating and died.

But the problem is that yesterday Zhang Yun逸 praised Jiao Da’s loyalty and he even said that he would treat him well, but now he turns a deaf ear to it, which arouses suspicion.

This matter involves too many things. In addition to the murder of Zhang Yun逸, there is also the letter to slander the emperor, and the fighting among the princes. If the radish is pulled out and the mud is exposed, it will be no joke.

Although he also blamed Youshi for being too talkative, he knew that this was not the time to complain. When he saw Jia Zhen kicking Youshi away and Zhang Yunyi flying to grab her, he even praised his son for his alertness and coming up with such a way to distract attention.

I don't have time to care about all those tugs and tugs.

While Zhang Yunyi was half hugging and half hugging Youshi, he hurriedly made eye contact with Jia Zhen and said coldly, "Yesterday your cousin praised him as a loyal servant of our family. Why did you beat him up? What's going on?"

Although Jia Zhen gave Zhang Yun逸 a reassuring look behind his back, he really couldn't think of any excuse to make up in such a short time. Worried that the reason he gave was far-fetched, he specifically pointed out Zhang Yun逸's praise yesterday.

Jia Zhen said calmly, "Master only knows one side of the story. This old fellow relies on his past merits. He is not only sneaky and cunning, but also gossips when he's drunk. He even...even made up a story about his son having an affair!" At this point, he paused and said in a tearful voice, "Originally, my son would have tolerated it because he thought about his past merits in the mansion and his drunken behavior. But thinking about my cousin who is going to live in the mansion, if he also makes up a story about my cousin, then..."

"What!" Jia Jing slapped his thigh and said in feigned anger, "What a servant you are! How dare you make up stories about your master!"

He just thought that Jia Zhen was willing to throw dirty water on himself in order to eliminate the hidden danger, and even felt that he was wronged. Little did he know that what he said was all true.

Although spreading such gossip may affect the marriage plan, it is better than exposing the secret.

Besides, the innocent will be innocent. When Zhang Yun逸 lives in the mansion in the future, he will definitely be able to see clearly and the misunderstanding will naturally be resolved.

After listening to the conversation between the father and son, Youshi felt completely hopeless. The kick in the chest was not as despair as she felt at this moment.

Originally, he thought that Jia Zhen kicked him just to vent his anger, and most likely he would want him to help cover it up. Then he could pretend that it was an accident and the matter could be covered up.

Unexpectedly, he was so fearless that he not only did not cover up, but also filed a complaint first.

Because of my preconceived ideas, I always believed that Jia Zhen drove Jiao Da away out of selfish motives. Now I think that I was wrong.

She realized that she had made a fatal mistake by neglecting Zhang Yunyi's marriage.

Since the father and son had taken so much trouble to get Xichun to marry Zhang Yunyi, they were naturally worried that the gossip in the mansion would reach Zhang Yunyi's ears, affecting Xichun's reputation and, in turn, the marriage.

Poor him, he was still counting on Jia Jing to help him, but he didn't know that Jia Zhen had already planned everything. Driving Jiao Da away was probably a plan between father and son.

Even if he was willing to fight to the death, Jia Jing would probably not have enough time to cover up the matter, so how could he seek justice?

Thinking of this, Youshi felt dizzy and her legs went limp, and she collapsed like a ball of mud.

This time she softened, but she did not fall to the ground. Instead, her armpits tightened and she half leaned in Zhang Yunyi's arms.

I was so distracted just now that I didn't notice at all that Zhang Yunyi hadn't let go.

At this moment, she no longer cared about the other people's affairs and looked at the other person helplessly.

Zhang Yun逸 was not simply seeking excitement, and he did not have to act out a scene of being a husband in front of Jia Zhen.

However, he had not expected that Jia Zhen would dare to self-destruct in front of Jia Jing, and he was stunned for a moment.

Secondly, plans cannot keep up with changes. Although the character of a warm-hearted man is suitable, it still requires some effort and is far less simple and direct than being a scumbag.

He just wanted to have sex with Youshi, not to fall in love with her.

Jia Zhen has handed you the ladder. If you still don't know how to climb up, what's the point of digging a corner?

Although he was unable to see the whole picture, considering Jia Zhen's reaction after Youshi pointed out Jiao Da, he was probably worried that she would complain to Jia Jing, so he took the initiative to turn the tables.

And Yu's fall not only confirmed his guess, but also revealed her inner despair.

Meeting Youshi's helpless gaze, Zhang Yunyi nodded slightly, gave her a reassuring look, and took the opportunity to pat her roundness twice before letting go and said seriously, "Sister-in-law, please take a look. Are you hurt?"

"To hell with her! She's actually speaking up for that old bastard!"

Yu Shi, who was already guilty of her crime, was so frightened by the shout that she trembled with fear. But she heard Zhang Yunyi's full-throated voice in her ears: "Cousin, what you said is unreasonable. Although Jiao Da is hateful, your sister-in-law may not know about it. Weren't my uncle and I kept in the dark yesterday?"

"Right, right, right!" After hearing Zhang Yunyi's words, You Shi suddenly woke up. "If I knew he dared to make up such a story, how could I have spoken up for him?"

Seeing that Zhang Yunyi had no suspicion, Jia Jing was worried that he would make a fuss out of nothing and cause more trouble, so he did not want to delve into it further. He raised his hand and motioned Jia Zhen to get up.

"Well, a servant who doesn't know the difference between high and low should be punished. My wife didn't know anything about it, so why take your anger out on her?" Jia Jing looked at Jia Zhen lying on the ground, nodded approvingly, and said, "Your father doesn't blame you, get up quickly!"

Jia Zhen was also worried that Youshi would say something she shouldn't say, so he said, "If it weren't for my father and cousin pleading for you, I would have dealt with you!"

However, even so, after he stood up, he still glared at Youshi fiercely, scaring her so much that she leaned towards Zhang Yunyi again.

Zhang Yunyi sighed, "My cousin is still angry, sister-in-law, please sit next to me!"

Although Youshi knew that sitting next to Jia Zhen would be risky, she did not dare to cause trouble for him and was about to reject Zhang Yunyi's "good intentions".

Jia Zhen said angrily: "If it were my temper, I would have kicked her out of the car. Get her out of my way!"

Youshi looked at Jia Zhen who was full of anger, then looked at Zhang Yunyi who seemed to be smiling, and finally walked to Zhang Yunyi's side.
