The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 341 Both Hands Must Be Strong

Inside Mengpo Zhai.

Mrs. Wang doesn't know yet that Wang Xifeng has seen her unknown side and even plans to take advantage of it.

She was kneeling on the chair, foaming at the mouth, and said in a very flattering way: "Is the master...Is my concubine's service comfortable?"

Zhang Yunyi said without comment: "It is your duty to serve the master, are you asking for a reward?"

"No!" Mrs. Wang explained hurriedly, "It's just that I have something to ask you, Master!"

Zhang Yunyi shook his body, slapped Madam Wang's white face, and said, "If you have anything to say, go to bed. The master is a little tired from standing. Go and massage his legs."

"Hmm!" Mrs. Wang agreed and quickly got down from the chair.

Unexpectedly, she had been lying there for too long, her legs were numb, she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

"Ouch!~"

She screamed, quickly covered her mouth again, and looked at Zhang Yunyi sadly.

Zhang Yunyi squatted down, picked her up horizontally, threw her onto the bed, and then lay flat on her.

Madam Wang recovered a little, sat up from the bed, spread her ten fingers and grabbed Zhang Yunyi's thick legs, kneading them while flattering, "Master, take a look, are you satisfied with this strength?"

Zhang Yunyi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Tell me! What's the matter?"

"Hey! Master, I'm sure you know about my sister's family affairs..."

"What?" Zhang Yunyi curled his lips and deliberately asked, "She knows about our situation and came to you for help?"

It is naturally impossible for Mrs. Wang to self-destruct.

Yesterday at Li Wan's place, he heard some news and had some guesses. Now that Mrs. Wang suddenly pleaded for the Xue family, he deliberately said this to facilitate further indirect attacks.

"That's not the case!" Mrs. Wang said without any doubt, "How could she know?"

"I said, why doesn't she come to me herself if she has something to do?"

Zhang Yunyi said dissatisfiedly: "Since she didn't ask you for help, why are you rushing to help her? Don't you think the master doesn't care enough about you? Do you want to find something for me to do?"

"No, no, no!" Mrs. Wang immediately changed her tone, "Although she didn't say it explicitly, she meant it! Master, can you please give me some consideration..."

Speaking of face, her well-maintained fingers, as white and tender as a girl's, pressed upwards silently while waving their claws restlessly.

"If it's something else, I'll naturally give you this face, but..."

At this point, Zhang Yunyi paused and said, "It's just that a little kindness can be followed by a great grudge. At that time, I had just arrived at the East Palace, and I thought that we were related, so I not only helped her solve the review issue, but also partnered with her to do the caustic soda business. Unexpectedly, my kindness was taken for granted. Not only was she not grateful, but she also suspected that the master had swallowed her dividends!"

Mrs. Wang was skeptical and asked, "This... is there such a thing? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"How could she have the nerve to tell you? Don't you think about it? If there was no hidden reason, why would she withdraw her shares in the caustic soda business?"

Zhang Yunyi said impatiently: "If you don't believe me, just go ask her yourself!"

Mrs. Wang cursed Aunt Xue in her heart.

There are so many people who can be provoked, but why do you have to provoke Zhang Yunyi?

But she said: "She is indeed too petty, Master, please don't be angry, please consider me..."

"There should be a limit to how much you can help others. I don't want to be a good person in vain!"

"I promise she will never dare to do it again. Master, please forgive her this time!"

Zhang Yunyi pinched Madam Wang's chin and sighed, "Forget it! Since you have done your best, I will not care about it!"

He then changed the subject and said, "However, I have to make it clear this time. You can ask her to come to me later. I have to make it clear to her so that she won't be ungrateful."

After thinking for a while, he added, "Master, I have my own reasons. You should not get involved, or you will be in trouble."

Although he is a fake master, his influence on Mrs. Wang is more real than the real one.

He knew that Mrs. Wang was interested in a perfect match, and if he was too resolute towards the Xue family, she might consider his attitude and change her mind.

Compared with Lin Daiyu, the Xue family is obviously easier to control.

Therefore, he gave Mrs. Wang the illusion that he would forgive the past, and secretly used coercion and bribery on the Xue family so as not to lose sight of the big picture.

If he hadn't lost the opportunity by going to the door, he wouldn't have gone through so much trouble. He originally planned to use some means through the inner court to force the Xue family to submit, but now that Madam Wang was pleading for the Xue family, he might as well let her be a mouthpiece.

Mrs. Wang didn't expect Zhang Yunyi to say this, and she hesitated for a moment.

She had a deep understanding of Zhang Yun逸's character.

At the beginning, when Jia Baoyu was crazy, he dared to take advantage of the situation in front of Jia Mu and others, and took advantage of them.

Compared to myself, my sister is not only younger, but also has fairer and more radiant skin.

If I go there in person, wouldn't that be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?
She didn't care about Aunt Xue's reputation, but if this happened, it was hard to say whether Zhang Yunyi would forget his elder sister because he had a younger sister.

Moreover, once the Xue family gets close to Zhang Yunyi, it is questionable whether they will still obey her orders.

However, she herself is not clean. Not to mention that this is just a guess, even if Zhang Yunyi really has such intention, what reason does she have to object?
"In that case, I will wait for her to find me, and then tell her what the master said!"

After much thought, she decided that this was the only way to avoid arousing Zhang Yunyi's suspicion.

Zhang Yunyi impatiently touched Madam Wang's lips and urged, "I've already forgiven you for your sake, Madam. Why hasn't Madam expressed her opinion yet?"

……

"Aa ...

Inside Lixiang Courtyard, the young actors were stretching and kicking their legs in preparation for rehearsals and honing their basic skills.

Liu Wu'er, who was standing aside, was trying to warm up her voice by herself.

After finishing the set of movements, Fangguan pulled Lingguan to Liu Wuer's side and said with a smile: "Why have you been practicing so hard recently? I heard that Master Yi has been living here alone these days. Is he going to summon you to serve him in bed?"

"Ah, oh!~" Liu Wuer, who was singing well, suddenly lost her voice after hearing Fang Guan's words.

Her pretty face flushed, and she said guiltily, "You...what nonsense are you talking about!"

"What? I was right?" Fang Guan said with a smile, "What's there to be ashamed of?"

"No! Master didn't..." At this point, she couldn't help but think of Zhang Yunyi's words asking her to get well, and changed her words, "If Master didn't send me, I'll go over right away."

"Oh!" Fang Guan immediately grasped the mystery in her words and said with a smile, "If not now, then in a while?"

Now Liu Wu'er stopped talking, lowered her head, clutched the corner of her clothes, and hesitated twice.

Fang Guan smiled knowingly and asked, "By the way! I heard from the girls that this story was made up by Master Yi. Is it true?"

Speaking of this, Liu Wuer was no longer shy and said, "How could it be false? I heard from Sister Jinchuan that the master also has a story of the Legend of the White Snake, and it has even been published as a book!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Guan pursed her lips and fell into deep thought.

Lingguan spoke first: "Oh? Then can you take one and show it to us?"

Although actors are of low status, they all have to be literate because they have to memorize their lines.

"Then wait until Aunt Zhen comes back and I'll go ask her."

Hearing the two people talking, Fang Guan couldn't help but raise her eyelids and look at their faces.

"They say Lingguan looks like Miss Lin, but I think you, Wu'er, are no less beautiful!"

"Ah?" This nonsensical sentence suddenly came out. Liu Wu'er looked at Fang Guan in some confusion.

"Since ancient times, there have been many stories that contain hidden agendas. Isn't The West Chamber one of them? Do you think Master Yi could not write about Qiuxiang as a maid because he felt it was inappropriate to write about a young lady? So, he chose Lingguan at first sight..."

At this point, her eyes kept wandering around Liu Wuer and Lingguan's faces. She curled her lips and said with a smile, "I think not only your aunt can't escape, but even Lingguan may not be able to escape..."

Although there is suspicion of being used as a substitute, the maids and actors will not be dissatisfied. Instead, it is a rare opportunity.

Although Fang Guan was not very old, she had been influenced by the opera world and was not picky about food. She said with a smile, "Miss Lin is beautiful, but she is weak after all. I am afraid that Master will have to make up for it on you..."

Although they were both actors, Lingguan's cheeks turned red when she heard it because it was related to her.

Liu Wuer lowered her head, thought for a moment, and said in deep thought: "No wonder Master urged me to get well soon!"
