The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 239 Put it to death
White House.

Jin Chuan, who was taken back, stood in the main room with a dejected look on her face.

Mrs. Bai didn't care about her daughter's feelings. She pointed at her and asked, "Why did Madam suddenly get so angry? She even wanted to kick you out? You are going to destroy our family's livelihood!"

Jin Chuan was kicked out, which seemed to be her only problem, but her family would inevitably be affected as well.

Their family was all given as dowry by Lady Wang, and their honor and disgrace all depended on Lady Wang's decision. How could she have the time to care about Jin Chuan's feelings?
Faced with Old Lady Bai's questioning, Jin Chuan was speechless. Originally, she could at least be promoted to a concubine.

Suddenly, it went to the other extreme, and she was a little confused for a moment.

Seeing this, Yuchuan hurriedly said, "I was outside before and saw Baoyu escape from the inner room. Could it be related to Baoyu?"

Old Lady Bai exclaimed, "How could that be? Didn't you say that Madam intended to marry you to Baoyu? Could it be that you offended him and that's why Madam drove you out?"

For the Bai family, Mrs. Wang's plan to give it to Baoyu was a good thing, and Jin Chuan did not hide it from her family.

But Jia Zheng passed the message through Aunt Zhao, but because the time was short and she didn't know where to start, she never told her family.

When asked by Old Lady Bai, she no longer concealed the truth and told the whole story in a halting manner.

"Since the master has asked Aunt Zhao to pass on the message, I can't pretend that I didn't hear it. Baoyu was also... I didn't expect that the lady was not asleep..."

"This..." Old Lady Bai's body softened and she slumped down in the chair.

If she had only offended Jia Baoyu, even if Mrs. Wang was angry, it would only be temporary, and it was only a problem of Jin Chuan's personal words and deeds. At the very least, Jin Chuan would be driven out of the house and would have no chance to be with Baoyu.

As long as Mrs. Wang still trusts the Bai family, the worst that can happen is that she keeps her at home.

But it was obvious that Mrs. Wang was suspicious because she mentioned Aunt Zhao, and the Bai family might also be suspected.

Bai Laonian and Jinchuan were able to think of this, but Yuchuan did not think as deeply as them.

"As for the current plan, begging the master may only add fuel to the fire. If it weren't for Baoyu, my sister wouldn't have suffered this disaster. Madam has always loved Baoyu the most. As long as he is willing to ask for mercy for my sister, Madam will definitely give her a lighter sentence."

As she spoke, she turned around and said, "Don't worry, sister. I will go find Baoyu right away."

Old Lady Bai took a deep breath and warned, "Remember not to blame him. Beg him kindly. Even if he refuses to agree, don't contradict him..."

Jin Chuan seemed to want to say something, but in the end she didn't open her mouth.

Although judging from Jia Baoyu's behavior at the time, it was unlikely that he would be willing to beg for mercy, and Mrs. Wang might not necessarily pay attention to him, she still had some hope in her heart.

After Yuchuan left, the mother and daughter looked at each other in silence for a moment.

Jin Chuanfang looked determined and said firmly: "My daughter knows that it was she who caused the trouble. Even if Madam really refuses to forgive me, the worst that can happen is that I can prove my innocence and will never implicate the family!"

Just now, the two of them did not stop Yuchuan from asking Baoyu for help, because there were some things they did not want to say in front of her.

As for how to prove her innocence, Jin Chuan did not say.

However, Old Lady Bai seemed to understand the meaning of her words, and tears flowed unconsciously.

The Wang family is not as kind to their servants as the Jia family, and this can be seen from the way Wang Xifeng manages the household.

Once you are considered a traitor, not only will you lose the chance of getting a good job in the future, but even the livelihood of your entire family may be in jeopardy.

In this era, there were many people who had to eat their own children when disaster struck. For Old Lady Bai, being able to keep her family intact and losing a daughter was a blessing.

The mother and daughter were shedding tears on the spot when Zhou Rui and Zhou Rui's family walked in with a fake smile.

Old Lady Bai quickly wiped her face, forced a bitter smile, and walked forward.

"Housekeeper Zhou! Please come in and sit down. What does the Madam want to say?" She made some tea and asked the two of them to sit down. She said, "This child is ignorant. I'll have to trouble you two to help talk to the Madam..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Rui raised his hand to interrupt him, saying, "You are also an old man who came with the Madam as a dowry. There are some things I shouldn't remind you of. Aunt Zhao threw dirty water on Madam like that a few years ago. How dare you get involved with her?"

He remained calm and attributed Jin Chuan's words to the Bai family.

Old Lady Bai didn't dare to admit it, and quickly explained: "Butler Zhou, please understand! We are loyal to the Madam and have no second thoughts. This child just spoke without thinking. Please consider the friendship between us for generations..."

"Don't worry!" Zhou Rui interrupted again, "Someone dared to even behead someone, not to mention being a traitor? Is he just being careless or speaking his mind? I'm not a worm in your stomach, how can I tell?"

After he finished speaking, Zhou Ruijia looked at Jinchuan and said, "I am here just to ask you a question on behalf of my wife. Why did you urge my brother to go to the East Courtyard? What is your intention?"

Jin Chuan fell to her knees with a thump.

With her snow-white neck held high, she said stubbornly, "Please tell Madam that Jin Chuan just wanted to get Master Bao out of the way, and she has no other intentions!"

She knew very well that if she continued to bring up Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang would only become more suspicious, so she insisted that she just wanted to get rid of Jia Baoyu's entanglement.

"How dare you bring me up!" Zhou Ruijia said coldly, "Madam originally wanted to give you to Baoyu, don't you know? Even if there was something wrong with me, why did you have to send him away?"

"I know! But my wife was there at the time..."

At this point, Jin Chuan paused and said in a loud voice: "Please trouble Uncle Zhou and Auntie to report to Madam. I know that I have spoken without restraint. If Madam still does not trust me, I will prove to Madam that I have no second thoughts!"

"Okay!" Zhou Rui clapped his hands on the chair and stood up abruptly, "For the sake of our friendship over several lifetimes, I will tell my wife about this. You guys take care of yourselves!"

He naturally understood the meaning of Jin Chuan's words. Since Jin Chuan had the courage, Mrs. Wang would surely not pursue the Bai family.

Before, they had been impartial and impartial in their attitude, but now, they didn't mind doing a favor for someone.

The two of them left in a huff and ran into Yuchuan who had returned.

She bowed slightly to the two of them, walked quickly into the house, and said anxiously, "But the madam has changed her mind and asked Butler Zhou to come over..."

Halfway through his words, Fang saw the expressions of Bai Laonian and Jin Chuan, and his voice stopped abruptly.

Mrs. Bai wiped the tears from her face and asked quickly, "What did Baoyu say?"

"This……"

Yuchuan, who was already stunned on the spot, froze even more when she heard the words.

"Baoyu...Baoyu..."

Under the questioning of Old Lady Bai, she hesitated for a long time before she explained the matter clearly.

At first, when Jia Baoyu heard that Jin Chuan was driven away, he volunteered to go and plead for her before Jin Chuan even opened her mouth.

But when he arrived in front of Lady Wang's Rong Xi Hall, he hesitated.

When he heard the sound of Mrs. Wang throwing things inside, he ran away without even remembering the promise he made at the beginning.

Hearing this, Old Lady Bai felt dizzy and collapsed to the ground.

Jin Chuan moved her knees, faced Old Lady Bai, kowtowed three times solemnly, then stood up and went back to the house without saying a word.
