The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 377 Go with the flow
After everyone left, Grandmother Jia got straight to the point and said, "A few days ago, my two nephews' wives came over and said that Yun girl was not young anymore, so they planned to make her your concubine. I have already agreed to it on your behalf."

Because she wanted to arrange an assistant for Yuanchun, she did not give Zhang Yunyi the opportunity to refuse, which was exactly what he wanted.

"Uh……"

He put on a look of surprise at the right moment, and after hesitating for a long while, he said respectfully, "Everything is up to the old lady."

At this point, he paused again and said hesitantly: "But, wouldn't it be too unfair to Sister Xiangyun?"

Fearing that he had overacted, he agreed first and then put on an act.

Grandmother Jia said in dissatisfaction: "What's wrong with that? Even the second girl can do it, so she can't do the younger one?"

Zhang Yunyi was tangled up and said, "Second sister... I really..."

He seemed to be hesitant to speak, and shook his head like a rattle.

Seeing this, Jia's mother quickly spoke frankly and comforted her, "We have no choice but to do this. With Yun girl's preparation, Er girl will not be talked about in the future."

"Forget it!" Zhang Yunyi sighed, "In this case, I'll trouble the old lady to make the decision for Yunyi!"

When Wang Mang was humble and had not yet usurped the throne, he could have secretly taken advantage of the emperor. Why did he have to expose his wolfish ambitions and tear his face off?

Anyway, time is on his side.

As long as he can go one step further, when the Rong Mansion is exposed to a financial crisis, and facing the family's settled destiny, there is no need to worry that Lady Jia will not compromise.

Grandmother Jia thought that he was just considering Yingchun, so she accepted Xiangyun and said with satisfaction: "I knew you were sensible!"

Zhang Yunyi struck while the iron was hot and said, "Although this was not my original intention, it did save my second sister from gossip. I will remember this favor. Please tell the old lady and the two ladies of the Shi family. If there are any difficulties, please feel free to ask. As long as I am able, Yunyi will never refuse."

Given Lady Jia's want-it-all personality, if it weren't for Yuanchun's reasons, I'm afraid she might not easily agree to Yingchun becoming a concubine.

Even so, for the sake of her face, she would not reveal her plan to make Yingchun a concubine until the last moment.

Among the four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang and Xue, we will not mention the Wang family for now.

Although the other families are not as powerful as before, they are still well-known and renowned families after all.

All things are difficult at the beginning. As he said, historians have made a good start in this matter.

If the Shi family had nothing to ask for, it would be impossible for them to take the initiative to let Xiangyun become a concubine, which would bring shame to their family.

Thanks to Lai Da's knowledge, he was well aware of the difficulties faced by historians.

Reciprocating a favor can not only finalize the matter, but also set an example.

In this way, with the example of Shi Xiangyun, it would at least be possible to take Xue Baochai, Xing Xiuyun and others as concubines, which would clear some obstacles and increase some bargaining chips.

Grandmother Jia knew very well what her two nephews' wives were planning. She was worried that Zhang Yun逸 would complain, so she planned to settle the matter first and then persuade him patiently after a while.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yunyi actually took the initiative to propose it, and he was immediately overjoyed.

But he said, "It seems that I am still old, and I can't compare to you who are young and thoughtful."

After playing coy with Lady Jia for a while, he stood up and said, "Madam, please take a rest here. I'll go see my second sister-in-law."

Because Wang Xifeng was pregnant, she not only gave up her power as housekeeper, but also was exempted from the morning and evening visits and all social engagements.

If he entered the Grand View Garden now, it would not be a good idea to go to any courtyard, and he did not want to accompany the old lady Jia Mu.

The only legitimate reason was to visit Wang Xifeng.

When he arrived at Wang Xifeng's courtyard, before he could rush to the inner room, he just reached the main room when he saw Jia Lian chasing him from the wing room and said, "Brother Yi is here!"

Zhang Yunyi greeted him with a smile: "So Brother Lian is here too."

"Oh!" Jia Lian scratched his head and said, "I forgot to inform you, brother. It's not easy to have a chance to worship you. I moved back a while ago. I'll see if I can take care of you. I hope you won't mind."

As if he was worried that Zhang Yunyi would be dissatisfied, he quickly added: "Brother Yi, don't worry. I will move out after the baby is born."

Zhang Yunyi thought to himself, no wonder Jia Rong said that he didn't care about the concubines outside, which gave him the opportunity to take advantage of, so this was the reason.

He waved his hand and said, "Hey! Brother Lian, you are too polite. This is your home. Why are you asking me about it after you moved back?" "Yes, yes, yes!" Jia Lian said a little embarrassedly, "If this baby is not a son, I will have to trouble you to try harder..."

"Hey!" Zhang Yunyi pretended to be angry and said, "Why are you and I so distant? Even if I have a child, won't you come?"

"That's right, that's right!" Jia Lian nodded and smiled like a chicken eating rice, then pointed to the inner room and said, "Brother, please do as you please. I won't go in."

Zhang Yunyi nodded and was about to step into the inner room.

But Lin Hongyu pursed her lips and walked out with a resentful look on her face.

"Master!~"

She tried her best and finally caught Zhang Yunyi's eye and switched to the East Mansion.

However, although he promised to ask her to come back, she was left to Wang Xifeng and ignored.

Years ago, Wang Xifeng was in charge of the household, and she could also help with some chores.

Now that Wang Xifeng has given up her power as housekeeper, Lin Hongyu can only do nothing.

Just now when I was in the house, I vaguely heard him talking to Jia Lian outside, and was thinking of finding an opportunity to remind him.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xifeng was worried that she would have inconvenience in the house, so she found an excuse to send her away.

Because she was worried that speaking would cause Wang Xifeng's dissatisfaction, she could only look at him with resentment, reminding him not to forget her.

Zhang Yunyi saw her inner anxiety, and without thinking, he hugged Lin Hongyu's slender waist.

He took her in his arms and brought her into the inner room.

"You...what do you do?"

Zhang Yunyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'll borrow your precious land today to avoid any inconvenience in the future."

At first, when Wang Xifeng saw Zhang Yunyi walking into the house with Lin Hongyu in his arms openly, she thought he was up to some bad idea again and was a little flustered.

Now that he heard that he was just borrowing the place from him, he felt a little jealous and couldn't help but choke back, "Bah! What do you think this place is?"

Zhang Yunyi originally just wanted to say hello to Wang Xifeng, but now he changed his mind and said with a smile: "Of course I treat this place as my own!"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Lin Hongyu was shocked and looked at Wang Xifeng cautiously, but was surprised to find that she was not angry at all, but seemed very satisfied.

Before she had time to think about it, she felt dizzy and was picked up by Zhang Yunyi.

Then, Zhang Yunyi sighed, "Forget it! Since my sister-in-law is so distant, I'll go somewhere else! Where is your house?"

Lin Hongyu was held in his arms and had already lost her mind. She was not awakened until she felt her buttocks being slapped twice. Her last words were to herself.

He pointed weakly towards the opposite side.

Unexpectedly, before Zhang Yunyi could carry her away, Wang Xifeng said, "Forget it! You don't have to move. I'm a little bored staying in the room. Go out for a walk for an hour and come back!"

Lin Hongyu's mind buzzed for a moment, and she hadn't yet figured out what Wang Xifeng meant.

She felt her cheek being pinched, and she opened her eyes blankly, only to see Wang Xifeng rubbing her fingers and saying with a smile, "I'm sure this little girl can bear it, so let Ping'er stay and help her share the burden! Otherwise, the eldest sister-in-law will come back and say that I am not considerate of her maid."

After saying this, Wang Xifeng twisted her waist and hips and passed by.

Zhang Yunyi held her in his arms and walked as fast as a dragon or a tiger, heading straight for the bed in the house.

When Zhang Yunyi laid her flat on the bed, Lin Hongyu suddenly woke up. She pointed outside the room weakly and whispered, "Lian...Mr. Lian is still here!"

"Hahaha!" Zhang Yunyi laughed heartily, "Wasn't it Second Brother Lian who sent me in?"

Lin Hongyu was stunned, and Ping'er's voice came: "I will be waiting outside, Master, remember to call me later!"

"Hmm!~" A muffled groan sounded in her ears, and she saw Zhang Yunyi pouncing on his prey like a hungry tiger, and her mind went blank.
