The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 319 Half push and half give
It is said that since Jia Zheng sent Lady Wang away yesterday, he has closed the door and refused to see anyone, and even had people place the food at the door.

It was not until noon that news came from outside that Mrs. Wang had returned.

Only then did he rush out of the customs and rushed to Mrs. Wang's room.

Yuchuan, who was guarding outside the inner room, saw him and said in panic, "Master!"

Mrs. Wang did not bring any clean clothes with her, so her underwear was inevitably stained with some, so she hurried to change as soon as she came back.

As luck would have it, Jia Zheng arrived at this time.

Although Zhang Yunyi swore solemnly, Yuchuan couldn't help feeling uneasy when she saw the victim coming.

Seeing her panic, Jia Zheng was startled and asked, "Did you see anything bad yesterday?"

"I..." Yuchuan almost collapsed. She was about to tell the truth, but suddenly remembered Zhang Yunyi saying that Jia Zheng was very concerned about his reputation. She quickly changed her words and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. As soon as I went there, you took me to the hot springs. I didn't see anything."

She was a little nervous when she said this, worried that Jia Zheng would blame her for leaving her post. Unexpectedly, Jia Zheng was obviously relieved and said with a warm face: "That's good! That's good!"

This undoubtedly confirmed Zhang Yunyi's statement. Yuchuan couldn't help but feel a little contemptuous and her courage grew.

"Master, please wait a moment. Madam is changing her clothes."

I thought Jia Zheng knew everything, and was probably worried that he would be embarrassed if he saw the marks on Mrs. Wang's body.

Unexpectedly, he who had a warm face just now suddenly changed his expression and said, "Nonsense! Does the master have to be cautious too?"

Yuchuan was startled by his shout, and before she could react, Jia Zheng pushed the door open and walked in.

She hurriedly chased in and saw Mrs. Wang blushing and getting into the quilt. She couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"What are you doing here? Go out and guard!"

When Jia Zheng saw her chasing him in, he gave her a disapproving look and said sternly, "I have something to say to my wife. You stay far away and don't eavesdrop!"

He was worried that Yuchuan would hear that Yuanchun's marriage had changed.

But Yuchuan thought that he had some hidden hobby and wanted to find out what happened to Lady Wang last night, which made her despise him even more.

However, after all, there is a difference between master and servant, so she did not dare to refute and just looked at Mrs. Wang.

Madam Wang waved her hand and said, "You...you go out first!"

Yuchuan secretly complained in her heart, I have seen it all, who wants to hear it again? But she said, "Then I will take my leave first!"

Seeing Yuchuan leave, Jia Zheng was still a little worried, and ran to the door to look for a while. When he saw that she had gone to the main room, he was relieved, closed the door, came to the bed, and asked impatiently: "What did he say?"

He stared at Mrs. Wang's face, marveling in amazement.

It is said that soaking in warm water for a long time is good for the skin. I didn’t expect the effect to be so immediate. Just last night, my wife’s face actually became a little more rosy than that of a young girl in her twenties.

Mrs. Wang felt very nervous when she saw him looking at her. Although this was also due to Jia Zheng's efforts, she couldn't help feeling guilty when she thought about what happened last night.

He tucked the corner of the quilt, put it on his neck, and said unhappily, "You caused this trouble yourself, but you want me to be humble and humble. Are you a man?"

In order to prevent Jia Zheng from turning against her, she decided to take the initiative.

When Jia Zheng heard that Mrs. Wang questioned whether he was a man, he immediately became embarrassed and said angrily, "I caused this? It's all your fault..."

Before he could finish, Madam Wang retorted, "How dare you say that? Do you think I'm still in the dark? Are you still trying to fool me? If you hadn't offended Prince Ning, how could the girl's affairs have turned out like this?"

Jia Zheng was stunned when he heard this. He had not expected that Zhang Yunyi already knew the whole story and explained it so clearly to Mrs. Wang. He was speechless for a moment.

"I...how could I have known that it would affect the eldest girl's marriage? Even if I made mistakes, I acted upright and was not willing to disgrace my family by running errands for someone, even if he was a prince!"

Jia Zheng became more and more excited as he spoke, and he said in a loud voice: "If you hadn't tried to curry favor with the rich and powerful first, how could things have come to this?" Mrs. Wang sneered and said: "Since you are so noble, why did you send me to be a humble servant yesterday?"

Jia Zheng was speechless and could only humbly say: "Isn't it for the girl? You said that, does it mean he is unwilling to help?"

Mrs. Wang was also worried that Jia Zheng would turn against her will and deny her promise. Seeing that his attitude softened, she took advantage of the situation and said, "It was only after I humbled myself and begged him that he was willing to give me some advice!"

She was too embarrassed to explain the whole story in detail and could only speak with double entendres.

Jia Zheng, however, did not understand the trick and asked anxiously, "What trick?"

"He said that the matter has been brought to the attention of the Emperor, and even if he says something, it may not work. It would be better for you to ask for permission yourself..."

Mrs. Wang repeated Zhang Yun逸's words.

Jia Zheng frowned.

Although this method can avoid embarrassment, it is still far from what he expected of slapping his colleagues in the face.

He couldn't help but want more, and said, "If he hadn't been so nosy and hadn't set up the Marriage Courtyard, why would the King of Ning have made it difficult for me to recruit him? Why is he unwilling to help even with this little favor now?"

Mrs. Wang thought that he was not satisfied with the result, and she was a little flustered. She didn't know what to do, but she saw Jia Zheng flattering her face and smiling, "Since he is willing to give us advice, he may not be unwilling to help. I'm afraid he thinks we are not sincere enough. Why don't you go through the trouble again, prepare some more gifts, and let him try to talk to the emperor first. If it doesn't work, it won't be too late for you to write a letter again."

If it had been before, he would not have dared to make this suggestion, but this time letting Madam Wang go seemed to be the right approach, and nothing bad happened.

"A generous gift? How generous a gift do you think is appropriate, sir?"

Mrs. Wang gave Jia Zheng a sidelong look and twisted her hips uneasily. Last night, Zhang Yunyi had taken advantage of her and praised her a lot...for being thick and soft.

wrong!

He seemed to have muttered something like...Thank you for the generous gift!

She didn't think much about it at the time, but Jia Zheng suddenly broke in just now. Although she got into the quilt, she was still a beat too late.

Mrs. Wang muttered to herself.

He saw something he shouldn't have seen, so I deliberately said something with a hint of meaning in order to please him.

Or did Zhang Yunyi pass the message to him?
She felt uneasy and didn't dare to look Jia Zheng in the eye.

Jia Zheng thought for a moment and realized that he knew nothing about Zhang Yunyi's preferences. He said thoughtfully, "After all, I am not familiar with him. You can do whatever you want. Just make sure he is satisfied."

This undoubtedly confirmed Mrs. Wang's previous conjecture. She half-heartedly said, "Then let me rest for two days, and then go again."

I tossed and turned for most of the night last night. My bones are all loose. I didn't even sleep well. Plus, the ride was bumpy, so I really need a good rest.

However, Jia Zheng was eager to achieve his goal and urged her, "This is a matter of life and death for the young lady. You should strike while the iron is hot. Go and get ready now."

"Bah! Do you think everyone is like you?" Mrs. Wang spat.

Jia Zheng didn't think about anything else. He just thought that she didn't want to push him too hard, so he said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes! For the sake of our family's affairs, we can't push him too hard! Let's wait a while..."

Noticing that Madam Wang's eyes were not right, he quickly changed the subject and said, "... Two days?"

Although it is possible that Zhang Yunyi delivered the message, it cannot be ruled out that he made up an excuse because of his generous gift.

Seeing Jia Zheng's eagerness, Mrs. Wang was worried that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, so she quickly laid the groundwork and said, "But go back, whether it succeeds or not, you can't blame me."

Jia Zheng was also trying to make a move. Finally, Mrs. Wang gave in. Fearing that she would go back on her word, he quickly patted his chest and assured her, "Nothing is foolproof. Besides, how can the master blame you if you have to bear the consequences alone?"
