The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 286: Two-sided reaction
A crisp sound of "rustling" passed through the doors and windows of the side hall and spread across Wang Xifeng's yard.

The maids in the back room rushed into the courtyard in a hurry.

But before they could investigate, they heard Wang Shanbao's wife shouting, "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Go back to your rooms and seal up all the holes. The Lord is working!"

If Ping'er were still alive, there would be a possibility of distinguishing herself from her, but now those who remain in the courtyard are all small fry, and naturally they dare not compete with her, Mrs. Xing's companion.

He also saw Lai Da and his wife with their hands behind their backs, tacitly accepting Wang Shanbao's instructions and not daring to say anything more.

The three were worried that someone might accidentally break in, so they did not dare to leave their post and stayed in the yard.

But I didn't expect that they would guard for half an hour, and from the noise just now, it seemed that there was no sign of it stopping, but instead it seemed to be getting more and more intense.

Housekeeper Wang Shanbao thought that Mrs. Xing had given too much medicine, but Mr. and Mrs. Lai knew the truth clearly.

They could not help but look at each other, thinking in their hearts, it is no wonder that Aunt Zhao was able to climb up the tree of the Lord, it must be because she is gifted and she cannot bear to let the people in the house suffer.

The two of them seemed to be in sync with each other and looked at Wang Shanbao's family unconsciously.

Unlike Mr. and Mrs. Lai, who lived in a remote place to avoid suspicion, Wang Shanbao, the family chief, was eager to listen carefully.

Not only could he hear his granddaughter's cries clearly, but he could also vaguely hear the 'grunting' sound.

However, she had no awareness of her granddaughter's suffering. Instead, she was beaming with joy. Seeing the two men looking at her, she walked closer and said with a big smile, "Thank you so much today. It's an honor for me that this child can serve you, my Lord!"

Lai Dajie smiled and said, "Of course! Of course! We are all working for the Lord, and it is also your Siqi who has done well enough to be in the Lord's eyes!"

She knew very well that Zhang Yunyi had not been tricked.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but admire his foresight in using the tactic of procrastination to deal with Siqi's aunt.

If you ask yourself, Qingwen, whom you sent from your own family, or Jinchuan, who had shown her goodwill in advance, probably don't have the patience that Siqi has.

After hearing what Lai Dajie said, Wang Shanbao's smile became even more unconcealable.

Since Mr. and Mrs. Lai could show their goodwill to Jin Chuan in advance, and they knew that Aunt Zhao had hooked up with Zhang Yunyi, and seeing that Siqi could accompany Zhang Yunyi to have fun, they naturally would not miss the opportunity.

The three of them put aside their past grudges and had a very pleasant conversation.

……

Although they were neither anxious nor impatient, the East Cross Courtyard was already getting a little impatient.

"Master! Brother Yi is still with my son. It's been an hour. How can my son live his life by leaving him alone like this?"

Because of her close friendship with Zhang Yunyi and the arrangement by Jia She and his wife, Wang Xifeng was not worried about being affected...

Of course, if Zhang Yunyi wanted to vent his anger on her and impose corporal punishment on her, she would be happy to accept it.

But Jia Lian did not have her confidence.

He had also helped in entertaining guests at the funerals of Jia Jing and Jia Zhen, as well as the grand banquet hosted by Zhang Yun逸, so he was naturally aware of his power.

Unlike Jia She who is greedy for pleasure and Jia Zheng who is obsessed with idle talk, he is the only master in Rongfu who takes care of the general affairs.

He saw some clues.

At the dock, he was rude to Zhang Yun逸 at first but respectful later because of poor information, which led to his failure to supervise him.

At this moment, he dared not neglect it anymore. "Who said to just leave him there? Is the master a person who does things without rules? When I called you here, I had already asked someone to call your sister to accompany you!"

It would be impossible to keep the secret forever about arranging for Yingchun to go there. If Jia Lian didn't ask, Jia She would be happy to pretend to be ignorant. But now he was too lazy to cover it up.

Instead, he acted arrogantly and said, "The old lady has already agreed to the matter of the second girl, and you brothers and sisters-in-law don't know how to help!"

After hearing this, Jia Lian was still a little suspicious, but Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Look at what the master said. How could the wife not care about the second lady's matter? Since the master arranged for her to go over to accompany us, we should not rush back. It is better to let her have a good talk with Brother Yi!"

She had always hoped to make this marriage happen, and now no matter what Jia She and his wife were planning, she could just stay out of it.

In fact, with the relationship with the eldest wife's son-in-law, she will have an extra convenience in the future.

Moreover, considering Jia She's character, if the benefits Zhang Yunyi gave him were enough, even if he really bore his child in the future, he might not be unhappy about it, but might even think that it was a rare treasure.

Hearing this, Jia She became more confident and pointed at Jia Lian and said, "Since you all understand, don't rush back. Let's continue to talk about our business!"

Of course there must be a reason to call someone here.

As the saying goes, a daughter who is married off is like water spilled. He seized on the fact that Wang Ziteng was promoted because of the bird droppings business and threatened and beat him, hoping to get a piece of the pie.

However, he knew very well that Wang Xifeng would not give up her interests easily. She was just using this as an excuse to force the two of them to stay in the east wing to give Zhang Yun逸 enough time.

Now that he saw that Wang Xifeng had expressed her stance first, he thought she had given in, and since the matter had been made public, he brought up the old matter again.

Wang Xifeng was willing to cooperate with Yingchun's affairs, but that didn't mean she was willing to let Jia She snatch the money she had obtained.

I hurriedly argued, "Master, what you said is true. A daughter who is married off is like water spilled. The boats used in this business all belong to her mother's family. I am just acting as a middleman for Brother Yi."

Faced with Wang Xifeng's constant excuses, Jia She was helpless.

As he was talking, Mrs. Xing came in with an anxious look on her face. She came close to Jia She and lowered her voice and said, "Master! Did you give me too much medicine? Why is there no news for so long? Nothing will happen, right?"

After all, it was well known that Jia Zhen died in a woman's belly.

When Mrs. Xing saw that there was no news from Wang Shanbao's wife for a long time, she was worried that there was something wrong with Jia She's dosage of medicine and that it might cause trouble.

Because Jia She had to restrain Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, Mrs. Xing had to act as a coordinator. In addition, as the eldest wife, her movements were quite noisy, and it was not convenient for her to check it out in person, so she could only arrange for Wang Shanbao to keep an eye on it.

Jia She couldn't help but frown when he heard this, and murmured, "Master, how could I not know the dosage of this medicine? It shouldn't be that bad, didn't you send someone to watch it? If something really happened, would you not come back to report it? Maybe the second girl was a little stage-frightened and procrastinated, and he was young and energetic, so he delayed a little longer, that's also possible."

"But... isn't this a bit too long?"

The news came back from Qin Xian's house that the wine had been delivered, and more than half an hour had passed by then.

Based on Mrs. Xing's experience, even if medicine was used, it wouldn't take so long.

"Hey!" Jia She stroked his beard and smiled, "Who hasn't been young? He is so young and energetic, and he has taken medicine. He will eventually summon up the remaining courage..."

"But how can the second girl, a virgin, stand it? Will she cause any trouble?"

Jia She said disapprovingly: "Only those who endure the most hardships can become superior people. What's the harm of enduring a little hardship? You may not be able to endure it in the future when you want to!"
