The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 435 Everyone talks about it
Rongguo Mansion, gatekeeper.

Others could still move around, but the doormen could only gather together and whisper.

"You say, are the good days in the mansion really over now?"

"I knew something was wrong when the eldest girl came home, and now the emperor has sent someone to say such harsh words..."

"Alas! I could have counted on Master Yi to help me, but now I'm in trouble..."

Speaking of Cao Cao, the thief Cao has arrived. As they were talking, they saw Xue Pan nodding and bowing, and beckoning Zhang Yun逸 to enter the east corner gate.

Several people immediately shut up, automatically ignoring Xue Pan, ran out of the door room, stepped forward and saluted, "Master Yi...Master Yi!"

Zhang Yunyi nodded.

Xue Pan, who was standing by, did not feel ignored at all. He waved his hands impatiently at them and said, "It's none of your business. I want to thank Brother Yi and invite him to dinner at my home!"

After saying that, he bent down and made a gesture of invitation.

Watching the two of them leave.

Several servants looked at each other, and one of the younger ones hesitated and asked, "Should we go and inform the old lady?"

"Pa!" The older man raised his hand and slapped him on the head, shouting, "What's wrong with your brain? The old lady invited him but didn't give him face, and then she kicked the door of the Xue family, and you rushed to report it. Are you afraid that the old lady hasn't lost face enough?"

"Go ahead, go ahead!"

“Uh…” The man who had just spoken shrank his neck, “Then… forget it! I don’t want to get into this bad luck.”

A few people turned around and were about to go back when they saw Lai Da coming with his hands behind his back.

"Butler Lai!"

Lai Da slowly came up to the group and said meaningfully, "My Lord is always loyal and righteous. He is still angry now. Once he calms down, there may be room for maneuver. As servants, we should also be more sensible and must not add fuel to the fire at this time. Do you understand?"

Several people had originally planned to do this, and now with Lai Da's endorsement, they hurriedly responded: "Hey! Hey! Butler Lai is right!"

Lai Da waved his hand and added, "Alright! If the Sir is willing to come over in the future, that would be the best. Just pretend you didn't see anything and don't have to report it!"

Although Lai Da was not clear about these matters, he knew them clearly in his heart.

Although the Rongguo Mansion seems to be named after the Jia family, it is actually like Zhang Yunyi's mistress. He can do whatever he wants with almost all the children and relatives in the family.

Don't give face to the monk, but give face to the Buddha. Although Jia Zheng is hateful, he can't be associated with those ladies, grandmothers, and girls.

His eyes unconsciously looked towards the northeast corner.

As the steward of Rongguo Mansion, Xue Pan had not returned home for a long time. After a little inquiry, he easily found out the reason.

At this moment, he had just returned and he immediately invited Zhang Yun逸 to his house to express his gratitude.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

The water in this mansion is really deep. I didn’t expect that the Xue family would also be involved with Zhang Yunyi.

But I don’t know whether it was the credit of the concubine or Baochai’s face.

……

"aunt!"

"Where's my sister?"

Xue Pan, who had invited Zhang Yunyi into the Xue family, looked around the side hall and then looked at Aunt Xue with some dissatisfaction.

"Huh!~"

Aunt Xue nodded guiltily at Zhang Yunyi, swallowed her saliva, and said, "Don't call me your sister. You talk nonsense and behave yourself when you drink. It would be restrained if she comes over!" Originally, when Xue Pan went to invite her, Zhang Yunyi was a little worried that the mother and daughter of the Xue family would be able to see through each other when they were together.

However, Xue Pan was so kind that he couldn't refuse, so he had to be dragged over. After hearing this, he felt a lot more relieved.

He hurriedly said, "That's good! We can talk less taboos now!"

Xue Pan originally planned to take the opportunity to bring Zhang Yunyi and Baochai together. Although he was unhappy, he changed his mind and decided that there was no need to rush.

He knew that Aunt Xue had been planning a perfect marriage with Lady Wang, and was afraid that if she knew about it, it would do harm, so he gave up.

Worried that the presence of the servants would be inconvenient, when the food and wine were served, Aunt Xue ordered, "You all should go down! It's rare that Pan'er is happy today, I'm afraid she won't be able to stay up early, you should go to bed early, and we can clean up here tomorrow. Just leave Tongxi and Tonggui waiting outside the house!"

The servants knew Xue Pan, who would not stop until late at night, and they felt as if they had been pardoned when they heard this.

Xue Pan had no idea of ​​Aunt Xue's good intentions, and said with some dissatisfaction: "How can we do this without someone to serve us?"

Aunt Xue said with a little embarrassment: "Since we want to express our gratitude, we should pour the tea and wine ourselves to show our sincerity."

Xue Pan slapped his forehead and said with a silly smile: "Yes, yes, yes! Mother is really thoughtful."

He picked up the wine jug on the table and was about to get up to pour the wine, but Aunt Xue snatched it away and said, "Let me do it! You just sit still and drink a few more glasses with Yun Yi."

She knew very well that drinking too much could cause trouble and she needed to stay sober.

Xue Pan was a carefree person to begin with, and he thought that she was doing this to show her sincerity, so he sat down calmly as well.

He picked up a wine pot on the table, poured himself a drink, and said with a smile: "What a delight! What a delight! Although there is no shortage of these in the prison, the wine tastes so bland. The wine at home is still strong enough!"

He felt very happy in his heart, but he didn't know that Aunt Xue had specially chosen a wine that was easy to get drunk.

After a few drinks, he raised his glass again and said, "Brother Yi, you have forgiven me for my past grudges and helped me out. I am really ashamed of myself. I will not say anything polite. From now on, you are my second parents."

“Hey!” Zhang Yunyi declined, “My aunt is still here, how can you be both my brother and my parent? It’s really a mess…”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xue Pan seemed to have thought of something and quickly agreed.

He slapped his forehead and changed the subject: "However, even though I said that, I, Xue Pan, am definitely not an ungrateful person. Let's talk about our own affairs!"

As if to increase his persuasiveness, he patted his chest loudly when he said he was not ungrateful.

Zhang Yunyi glanced at Aunt Xue, raised the wine glass in his hand, and said with a double meaning: "Then today, I will... be arrogant first?"

Zhang Yun逸 was a very flexible person. Since Xue Pan had taken the initiative to suggest that they should discuss their own affairs, how could he be pretentious?
"What do you mean by arrogance?" Xue Pan said with a look of dissatisfaction, "I am willing, just accept it calmly!"

After saying that, he clinked glasses with Zhang Yunyi, raised his neck, and drank it all in one gulp.

Aunt Xue saw that her silly son did not understand Zhang Yun逸's hidden meaning at all, and instead followed him in talking nonsense, becoming more and more out of line, so she blushed with shame and wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Fortunately, I had a couple of drinks with him before, so I was able to cover it up.

But Zhang Yunyi seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for her. He came to her with a wine glass in hand and picked up the wine jug to fill it up himself.

He lowered his head and saluted deeply, then said with a hint of meaning: "Madam, please don't blame me! It's really hard to refuse Wenlong's kindness, so I can only offend him!"

The word "Madam" made Aunt Xue's heart almost jump into her throat. She secretly felt lucky that she had taken precautions in advance and kept it a secret from Baochai.

Otherwise, how could she not be suspicious after hearing such nonsense?

However, she didn't know that it was precisely because of Baochai's absence that Zhang Yunyi acted so unscrupulously.
