The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 359 A good show

In the Dengxian Pavilion, Zhang Yun逸 committed improper acts under the pretext of listening to a play.

The good show on the Grand View Tower is in full swing.

It was late at night and the sound of drums and music could not be covered up.

Hearing the noise, Tanchun was the first to become unable to sit still.

He came to the Grand View Tower with his secretary, bowed to Yuanchun, and said with a smile: "Sister, why are you working so hard alone and not calling your sisters?"

Although Yuanchun had returned home for nearly a month, Zhang Yun逸 had been staying outside the city and had not set foot in Rong Mansion.

Although it can be seen that Tanchun is quite enthusiastic about the rehearsal, she does not understand the reason.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across her face, and she explained, "I just had the urge to do it. It was cold in the twelfth month of winter, and it was hard to travel at night, so I didn't think of bothering my sisters."

Tanchun scoffed at her explanation. She didn't practice early or late, but arranged it right after Zhang Yunyi came back, and deliberately left out all the sisters.

The drunkard's intention is too obvious.

She immediately said sarcastically, "How can you say it's a bother, sister? Brother Yi has always taken good care of us sisters, and it's our duty to share his worries. Besides, we can't sleep even if we want to rest during the rehearsal at night, right? Why don't you come and lend a hand?"

Although she was older than her sisters, she came alone and did not call them sisters.

In addition, Yuanchun couldn't help but frowning when she heard the bad tone, so she tried to test it out: "Sister, you are right. It was my fault for not thinking carefully and disturbing the sisters. I will ask them to keep their voices down during the rehearsal in the evening!"

Although she could understand Tanchun and was attracted to Zhang Yunyi, they were half sisters after all.

If there were to be a situation where two women were fighting over a husband or if there was a quarrel between the sisters, it would be really difficult to resolve.

However, since it concerns a girl's reputation, we cannot just believe everything we hear but need to distinguish carefully.

Therefore, instead of giving up, she deliberately provoked Tanchun.

But before Tanchun could say anything, Yingchun came over and said, "Sister, don't worry about me. You work so hard, how can I be lazy?"

Yingchun seldom participated in making plans because of her inferiority complex and her inferior literary talent compared to her sisters.

However, in the evening, Mrs. Xing suddenly came to Zhuijin Tower and told her bluntly that Grandmother Jia planned to let Yuanchun replace her as Zhang Yunyi's wife, and she could only be a concubine as a dowry.

Although she felt sad, Zhang Yunyi had laid the groundwork before, and she was used to being submissive. Even though Siqi kept complaining, she still tried to keep the peace and even stopped Siqi from asking Zhang Yunyi.

It would have been fine if she had not participated in the past, but now that she had decided to become a concubine, and seeing that Yuanchun, the "legal wife" and the eldest sister, was working day and night, she did not dare to be lazy. When she heard the noise, she hurried over.

However, Zilingzhou was not as close as Qiushuangzhai, so she arrived a little later than Tanchun.

"Second sister is here!" Tanchun smiled sweetly when she saw Yingchun, and immediately went forward to hold Yingchun's arm.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Although I was worried about Yingchun before, I now hope to help each other.

Yuanchun didn't understand what was going on. When she saw Yingchun, who usually didn't come forward, made an exception and came, and also saw Tanchun greeting her warmly, she thought it was Tanchun who conveyed the message, and her doubts were slightly dispelled.

Just as she was greeting Yingchun and Tanchun, Lin Daiyu, Baochai and Xiangyun also arrived.

She just thought that they were all invited by Tanchun, and she couldn't help feeling ashamed and guilty, thinking that she was overthinking.

Xue Baochai went up the steps and saw that only the three sisters were in the Grand View Tower. Disappointment flashed across her face. Although she was not like Tanchun and Yingchun, she knew some of the inside story from Zhang Yunyi and Mrs. Xing.

However, by combining the attitudes of Mrs. Wang and Lady Jia, we can also get some clues.

Although his family's affairs were settled thanks to Lady Wang and Yuanchun's help, it is better to rely on oneself than on others, and he cannot stay out of it.

Knowing that Zhang Yunyi was returning today, she just thought that Yuanchun was rehearsing all night to let Zhang Yunyi inspect the results.

So he dragged Shi Xiangyun here, hoping to win some favor.

Compared to her, Shi Xiangyun seemed a little shy.

Originally, Grandmother Jia did not reject the request of her two aunts. She was quite enthusiastic about writing and rehearsing the script.

But when Yuanchun returned home and noticed Lady Jia's attitude, she couldn't help feeling disheartened.

If Xue Baochai hadn't forced her to come, and if she hadn't had some hidden expectations in her heart, she might not have dared to come.

As for Lin Daiyu, she could not bear Zijuan's nagging, and Zhang Yunyi had always taken good care of her, so she felt it was not right or right to fall behind, so she followed.

Seeing all the sisters rushing over, Yuanchun said a little embarrassedly: "I have been away from the palace for so many years, and it is a rare opportunity to be so presumptuous. I didn't expect that I would disturb the rest of the sisters. Come and sit down!"

"Sister, that's not right! We are all restless people. We have nothing to do, so we might as well get together and chat by candlelight at night, which is lively and exciting!"

"Being able to put the script on stage is not only a pastime, but also our honor."

"It's just that if we make such a fuss, my sister-in-law will probably tell the old lady and the madam about us tomorrow. If the old lady and the madam blame us, my sister will have to help us take the blame!"

"This was my idea in the first place, so I don't want to implicate you."

As they all had their own thoughts, the sisters tacitly agreed not to mention anyone and instead began to discuss the details of the rehearsal. Everyone expressed their own views and although there were occasional disagreements, they were all in harmony.

……

However, Zhang Yunyi, the fuse of all this, was immersed in the gentleness of life and had no idea what was happening in the Grand View Tower.

Qing plays Daiying, and Liu Wuer has the necessary figure, so they manage to play Lin Daiyu.

Although it cannot be compared with the original one, the double spelling has its own fun.

However, it must be said that the effect of learning opera is remarkable.

Although Liu Wu'er is still a little green, after learning, her body has become flexible and her voice has become melodious.

While Zhang Yunyi was quite surprised, he couldn't help but think of Lingguan, who was also quite similar to Lin Daiyu.

As the saying goes, one minute on stage is worth ten years off stage.

After all, Liu Wu'er has only been in this field for a short time, while Lingguan has been immersed in it for a long time.

In addition, she does not have the same physical weakness as Liu Wu'er, and learning opera is also beneficial to the body. Her physique and development are better than Liu Wu'er, so she is a good alternative.
