The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 25: Having evil intentions
The next day.

Wang Xifeng got up early, had breakfast, and gave instructions on all the affairs in the mansion before going to the front yard.

Because the two mansions were not far apart, they did not harness the carriage to horses, but simply had a few servants pull the carriage into the Ning Mansion's west corner gate.

As soon as he got off the car, he saw Jia Rong coming towards him with a licking face.

"Nephew pays respects to aunt!"

"Oh! What's going on today? Do you need to borrow my glass screen for another social event?"

"Look at what Auntie said, can't your nephew show his filial piety?"

"I can't afford it." Although he said that he couldn't afford it, he felt that he enjoyed it very much in his heart. He said with great satisfaction, "Don't think about getting any benefit from me again."

Jia Rong bowed deeply, pretending to invite her in, and said flatteringly, "How could that be possible! Auntie is here to visit Qin, and it is only natural for my nephew to lead the way."

"Let's go then!"

"Aunt, please!"

Jia Rong hurriedly came forward and led Wang Xifeng inside.

Seeing that he kept leading her to the second gate, Wang Xifeng asked curiously, "Wouldn't it be closer to go through the corner gate in the front yard?"

Jia Rong smiled and said, "Aunt, you don't know yet, Qin is now living in Tianxiang Tower to recuperate."

"Ah! How long ago did it happen? Why didn't I hear about it before the New Year?"

"We moved there on the sixth day of the New Year. My aunt didn't ask me last time, so I didn't tell her."

Wang Xifeng showed a trace of disgust and said sarcastically, "Isn't this what your father meant?"

"How could that be possible? Isn't it because she just recovered from a serious illness and needs to rest?"

Seeing Jia Rong swallowing his pride, Wang Xifeng was too lazy to say anything more. On the one hand, she was glad that although Jia Lian was not capable of much, he was not so shameless as her. On the other hand, she chatted with Jia Rong in a random manner.

When they reached the alley of Tianxiang Tower, Jia Rong said, "It's a good thing Uncle Yi went out early this morning, otherwise I would have sent someone to say hello first, so as not to offend Aunt."

Hearing Jia Rong calling him uncle, Wang Xifeng asked knowingly, "Where did the words uncle and aunt come from?"

"Oh! Auntie, please don't let anyone hear what you said. Grandpa and Master value you very much!"

"Oh?" Wang Xifeng pretended to be surprised and said, "Tell me about it."

Jia Rong did not say anything, but instead looked at Ping'er and others who were following closely behind him.

Wang Xifeng had already received instructions, so she waved her hand and said, "Just follow from a distance."

After Ping'er and other maids had moved away, Jia Rong briefly explained Zhang Yunyi's identity.

"Not only do the master and the old man think highly of him, but even the emperor has given him a courtesy name."

"Oh?"

Wang Xifeng was greatly surprised. She thought it was just an ordinary trick, but she didn't expect that the emperor not only believed it, but also gave her a courtesy name.

"Guess what, Auntie? He's called Tianxiang, just like Uncle Rui."

At this point, Jia Rong glanced behind him, rolled his eyes, and said mysteriously: "It is said that there is no coincidence in the world. Who knows, when he sees Aunt, he will be like Uncle Rui and be crazy about her!"

"Go to hell!" Wang Xifeng spat, "I don't care. If that toad didn't want to eat the swan meat and come to provoke me, I wouldn't bother to care."

"Of course, Auntie has done the right thing. It's just that he was blind and dared to provoke Auntie. Now he is lucky to be dead." After hearing this, Wang Xifeng calmed down a little. She glared at Jia Rong and said, "That's better!"

Seeing this, Jia Rong hurriedly came forward and said, "But he is not like Uncle Rui. Auntie only knows one side of him, not the other."

Although Wang Xifeng knew that Jia Rong had nothing good to say, she still had Mrs. Wang's instructions and thought that Qin Shi didn't know as much as Jia Rong, so she went with the flow and said, "It's just that the emperor gave her a name, what's the big deal."

"Aunt, you are totally wrong. The white sugar he made is three times whiter than the ones in the palace. He presented it to the emperor the other day and not only was he awarded the title of fifth-rank dragon guard, but all these businesses will be under his control from now on."

The day before yesterday, he noticed something strange and became concerned. He spent a whole day and a lot of money to treat the playboys he was on good terms with to drinks and fun, and finally found out everything about Zhang Yunyi.

Not only did he learn about the sugar business, but when he heard there would be follow-up, he also understood Jia Zhen's plan.

Although he was the official master of the Ning Mansion, all expenses had to depend on Jia Zhen's mood.

Now that I know there is a God of Wealth right next to me, how can I not have any ideas?

If he had known about this before, he would have done everything he could to please him.

However, he had reported Youshi's misdeeds to Jia Zhen the day before yesterday, and was certain that Zhang Yun逸 and Youshi had something unclear about each other, so he thought it would be difficult to get any benefits.

I'm at a loss as to what to do.

Coincidentally, when he came back yesterday, he heard the doorman say that Wang Xifeng would come today, and he immediately thought of the situation when she plotted against Jia Rui.

Although Youshi had Jia Zhen's tacit approval, Wang Xifeng was a member of the Rongfu, and Jia Zhen had no control over her. Her status was not as high as Youshi's. If she could get hold of Zhang Yunyi's handle as she did before, it would not just be the IOU of fifty taels.

So he waited for Wang Xifeng's arrival early in the morning, wanting to persuade her.

After hearing what Jia Rong said, Wang Xifeng thought of Mrs. Wang's instructions and wondered secretly, could it be that the lady also took a fancy to this business?
Seeing her lost in thought, Jia Rong thought he had touched her, and said hurriedly, "If you can use some tricks on him like you did on Uncle Rui, then my nephew will definitely benefit from it..."

"Bullshit!" Wang Xifeng said angrily, "I treat you as my nephew, but you have such dirty thoughts. It is said that good things should be kept within the family. Why don't you ask Sister Zhen and your wife to go?"

Jia Rong secretly complained in his heart, and I thought about it too.

But let alone the fact that Youshi was not under his control, she had already been promised to a bride by the master.

The Qin family is under his charge. There is not much difference between a cheap father and a cheap cousin, but he is afraid that he will make money but not spend it.

I could only say angrily, "I saw that he has the same cousin name as Uncle Rui, and I was worried that he might have the same bad thoughts as Uncle Rui, so I reminded you."

At this point, he said unwillingly, "Besides, we don't need Aunt to make a real play. It's just to imitate Uncle Rui. Uncle Lian is not at home recently. When Uncle Lian comes back, we will have already grasped his handle. He is not like Uncle Rui, who can't make any money."

"Pah!" Wang Xifeng spat, "My Wang family doesn't have anything to ask for. Why would we care about his little bit of money?"

Although she did not give in, Jia Rong could still see the difference in her attitude and took the opportunity to add, "Aunt, listen to me. This is not a small business. I heard that they will also make glass in the future. That is a very profitable business!"

"What!" Wang Xifeng exclaimed, "He can make glass?"

He had never seen the real white sugar, so she didn't take Jia Rong's exaggerations seriously, but she knew the glass very well.

She has always been proud of the glass kang screen that she brought as a dowry.

However, having said that, she couldn't admit in front of Jia Rong that she was attracted to him.

He just said viciously: "He is just a fifth-rank dragon guard. If he really has thoughts that he shouldn't have, I will definitely make him cut off a piece of my flesh."

Jia Rong knew that she was speaking with a double-minded attitude, and said with a smile: "When the time comes, if it is inconvenient for you to be present, just leave it to me. I will not let you down."
