The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 308: Two Sides
"Mom should be relieved now, right?"

In the northeast corner of the Xue family courtyard, Baochai held Aunt Xue's hand.

"Oh my! How can I feel at ease? I don't know if the Liu family will say anything nonsense in front of him."

"Mom, you're worrying too much! If we talk about who in the mansion is closest to Brother Yi, it can only be Feng girl. She is also the sister-in-law of the second sister. If Brother Yi really wants to marry the eldest master, even if he knew that Liu Wu'er stayed in the East Mansion, why would he arrange such a management position for the Liu family?"

She paused and continued, "Besides, Jin Chuan has been hanging out at Xiaoxiang Pavilion recently. When I sent supplements to Sister Lin, I asked around and found out that it was Brother Yi who went to find Miss Feng himself."

"That's really Amitabha!" Aunt Xue pounded her chest and suddenly turned her head and asked, "You said Jin Chuan always goes to Xiaoxiang Pavilion?"

"That's right! Brother Yi always gives Miss Lin double the amount of fruit from his farm, and Jin Chuan often goes there in the name of Xiangling, which shows that my daughter's guess is correct."

At this point, she frowned slightly and shook her head, "It's just that my daughter once saw Zijuan blocking Jinchuan from entering the house, whether intentionally or unintentionally."

"boom!"

Aunt Xue slapped the table with her hand, shaking her body. She stood up angrily and said, "This girl is so rebellious! I'll tell your aunt right now!"

Baochai quickly stopped her and said, "Wait a minute, Mom. We are guests after all. This is not our family's business. How can we ..."

Aunt Xue saw Baochai was worried, so she sat down and explained, "I forgot to tell you this. Last time you told me that Brother Yi liked Miss Lin, so I told your aunt."

At this point, she smiled and kept it a secret, "Guess what she said?"

Baochai raised her eyebrows suddenly: "Could it be that she has also seen it?"

"It wasn't your aunt who noticed it, but Baoyu who noticed it..."

Aunt Xue was busy reporting the good news to her daughter, but she didn't notice Baochai's face and looked gloomy.

After she told him what had happened, Baochai raised her head and asked, "Since aunt knew about this, why didn't you help to bring them together? Is it that Baoyu is upset? Or is aunt pregnant..."

"That's not the case!" Aunt Xue showed a trace of worry. "Of course your aunt wouldn't have any other ideas. She did mention it to the old lady, but the old lady seemed to have other ideas and asked your aunt not to interfere..."

"That's it!" Baochai nodded and said, "The old lady should prefer Yun Yatou and Second Sister. One of them is her granddaughter and the other is from the Shi family. It doesn't make much difference to the old lady who goes to the East Palace."

"That's why I said I would tell your aunt. Although it's hard for her to achieve anything as a maid, it's not a good thing for her to stay with Lin. You just said that Jinchuan always goes there. If Yuchuan who is with your aunt can be transferred there, wouldn't it be more convenient for the two sisters to stay in different places?"

"That's what mom said!"

Baochai nodded approvingly, but then changed the subject and said, "It's just that Auntie has already alerted the enemy and mentioned this to the old lady. Zijuan was originally assigned to Miss Lin by the old lady. If she is transferred away without a reason, how can the old lady not be suspicious? How can she agree?"

"What do you say……"

"I think mother knows what Zijuan is planning. After all, she is not a member of the Lin family. How can she get the position of the head maid? I heard that when they were in the south, Master Lin originally wanted the daughter of Lin Zhixiao to take this position.

It was just that Miss Lin kept things the same because of their years of affection and because he was dying. Lin Zhixiao had no choice but to temporarily arrange for his daughter to stay in Yihong Courtyard. But if Miss Lin married someone else, she might not be able to follow her, and Lin Zhixiao was in charge of Miss Lin's dowry, so she had no choice but to..." As if she was intentionally avoiding something, she did not finish her words and said, "Since she intends to obstruct Jin Chuan, she must have noticed something and is a little anxious. Anxiety leads to chaos. It won't be too late to mention this to my aunt when she causes trouble."

"There is also this matter?" Aunt Xue frowned and pondered, "According to this, the two sides have already had an engagement? Otherwise, why did Lin Zhixiao arrange for his daughter to live in Yihong Courtyard? Why didn't your aunt tell me about this?"

"Mom, you worry too much!"

Baochai said confidently, "If there really was one, the old lady would have taken it out long ago. After all, Mr. Lin was a top scholar in the imperial examination and has been in the officialdom for a long time. How could he not have some tricks? Most likely he is worried that Miss Lin will be wiped out."

She paused and said, "Even if there really is a written agreement, I'm afraid the old lady took it to the south so that she could bring back Miss Lin and the dowry. My daughter guessed that this was probably a backup plan left by Mr. Lin for Miss Lin. Whether to take it out or not is entirely up to her. In this way, even if she lives under someone else's roof, she will not be controlled by others..."

Speaking of this, a hint of envy appeared on Baochai's face.

……

Qiu Shuang Zhai.

Shishu was so thirsty that his mouth was dry. After Niu drank a sip of tea, he let out a long sigh: "Hmm! ~ Miss, can you finally rest assured now?"

A trace of relief appeared on Tanchun's face, and she sighed, "I told you! Brother Yi wouldn't be so serious as to..."

"That's right! I just ran into Jin Chuan, and she told me that it was Master Yi who personally mentioned this to the Second Madam! Miss, don't worry. If it's really as rumored before, how could Master Yi refuse the Second Madam's honor just because of a maid like Liu Wu'er?"

Tanchun's eyelids twitched, and she said in a deep voice, "Have I ever been worried?"

The secretary lowered her head quickly and said, "It was my fault!"

Tanchun waved her hand and said calmly, "It's okay! Everyone makes mistakes. Just be more careful next time!"

Seeing that Tanchun was in a good mood, the secretary said with a hint of meaning: "If it's not because of the second young lady, there are only a few people in the garden anyway. Master Yi must have put a lot of thought into this arrangement!"

I wanted to please Tanchun again, but unexpectedly, after hearing this, Tanchun frowned and said thoughtfully: "Except for Xiaoxiang Pavilion, the fruits sent from other places are all the same, right?"

"Yes!" the secretary agreed, but added, "Hengwuyuan also has Miss Shi living there, so even if there are two copies, it doesn't count. After all, Miss Lin teaches Xiangling poetry, and Jin Chuan is Xiangling's close friend, so it's reasonable to prepare an extra copy. There's nothing... wrong with the remaining ones."

At this point, she was shocked to realize that Tanchun didn't seem so special after all, so she swallowed the word "difference" and changed it to "inappropriate".

She raised her head quietly, and found that Tanchun's face did not look unhappy, but rather seemed eager to try.

Then, I heard my young lady mumbling in my ears: "Brother Yi! Brother Yi, you are really not an ordinary person. Even I can't see the slightest clue of your thoughts..."
