The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 444 People are distracted
But when Lady Jia watched the servants moving the cartload of silks, satins and rare treasures bestowed by the emperor into the warehouse, the bitterness in her heart was beyond words.

He glanced at Youshi beside him, hoping that she could help and invite Zhang Yunyi to meet him.

But she was seen gathered together with the concubines and maids in Zhang Yunyi's room. She leaned her head out and stared at the baby that You Erjie was holding in front of her, and did not look at herself at all.

For a moment, Jia's mother was at a loss as to whether to go forward or backward. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of her two nephews' wives, who were whispering with Xiangyun aside.

She sighed in her heart, thinking that when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter, people's hearts are unsettled, and everyone has their own little calculations, making it difficult to lead the team.

He withdrew his gaze in disappointment, only to see Jia She and Jia Lian jumping up and down in front of them.

Her eyes gleamed, and she looked back at Yingchun, who lowered her eyebrows and eyes, and then turned to Yuanyang beside her and said, "Go! Call Lian Er to me!"

It is better to rely on yourself than on others. Although Youshi is Jia Zhen’s widow, she is still an outsider after all.

Just looking at the eldest son's expression and behavior, it is obvious that the father is honored by his daughter and is not influenced by the younger son at all.

Although it would be more appropriate for him to ask Zhang Yunyi for help, this rebellious son has obviously grown too powerful and is no longer on the same page with him.

So, she had to settle for the second best and asked Yuanyang to call Jia Lian.

"The old lady called me?"

Grandmother Jia glanced at the three people from the Shi family and said, "Go! Ask Brother Yi to come to the back for me. I have something to say to him."

"This..." Jia Lian was suddenly overwhelmed.

He is not a fool. Zhang Yunyi would rather greet guests in the front yard than greet Lady Jia. How could he not see the attitude?

Family members know their own business. The child in Wang Xifeng's belly was given by Zhang Yunyi.

It was obvious that Grandmother Jia wanted to ease the relationship for Jia Zheng. Why would he get involved in this mess and bring bad luck to Zhang Yunyi just for the sake of the second house?

She had no choice but to shirk her responsibility and said, "Madam, Brother Yi is busy receiving distinguished guests right now, so I'm afraid he can't spare the time!"

Grandmother Jia frowned and said, "What kind of distinguished guest is this? Can we expect him to accompany us all the time? I asked you to tell him to come back when you have time. Can it be that I can't ask you to do such a small thing?"

"How could that be? I'm not trying to shirk my responsibility. There are just too many guests. Look, even the master is helping to keep the guests."

As he was speaking, he heard Jia She in front of him shouting, "Prince Zhongshun is here!"

He then shouted at Jia Lian inside, "Lian Er! What are you still standing there for? Quick! Go and inform Yun Yi that Prince Zhongshun is here!"

Jia Lian suddenly felt relieved, and spread his hands towards Jia's mother: "Old lady, you have seen it too, I really can't get away!"

After saying that, he rushed to report the news without looking back.

Jia's face turned pale and blue, and the corners of her mouth twitched several times. She took a few deep breaths, and when she calmed down, she turned around and said in a relaxed manner, "There are too many distinguished guests today. I'm afraid Yi Ge'er will be busy. We are one family, so we should not cause trouble for him. Let's go to the back and rest!"

"Yes, yes, yes! The emperor and the princes are busy one after another, so how can they have time to greet us!"

Aunt Xue echoed, with a proud look on her face.

Seeing is believing, hearing is not. Although she had gotten a glimpse of clues since Xue Pan was released, today was an eye-opener for her.

The hundred-day banquet for a concubine's son could have such a grand ceremony, no wonder the emperor personally issued an order to release his own son.

If I had known this, why would I have gone so far as to seek help from that clay Buddha sister?

Not only have I been worried and frightened for so many days, but I have also wasted so much time...

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but turn her head and look at Madam Wang. But she happened to meet her slightly scrutinizing gaze. Both of them were startled and lowered their heads guiltily.

Aunt Xue lowered her head just now, it was just muscle memory. After she lowered her head, she finally reacted.

Now that he has relied on Zhang Yunyi, he no longer has to worry about anything. On the contrary, his own sister is in a difficult situation, unable to save herself.

The marks on her body had already disappeared, and Mrs. Wang had no way of knowing that she was being tossed around by Zhang Yunyi in private, and was tormented to death.

Thinking of this, he felt more confident and raised his head again. He saw Mrs. Wang looking worried with her brows lowered.

How could she know that although Mrs. Wang had never seen any traces of the same kind on her, she could relate to her and feel the same way.

Thinking back, she had gone to ask for help, but Zhang Yunyi took advantage of her and forced her to stay in the hot spring villa. He tortured her for several days before he let her go.

That day, in Rongqing Hall, Mrs. Wang guessed that Aunt Xue was going to ask Zhang Yun逸 for help.

However, there was no movement from Xue Pan for a long time, so she forgot about it.

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid that Zhang Yunyi would not help unless he swallowed up this delicate sister, skin and bones.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang couldn't help feeling sad.

This sister of mine is not only a few years younger than me, but also has a similar figure to me, and her skin is even more fair and smooth than mine.

With a sister who is better than him in every aspect and herself being burdened by Jia Zheng, it is no wonder that Zhang Yun逸 treats him rudely.

Originally, she could still count on Zhang Yunyi to take their old friendship into consideration, but now, seeing that Aunt Xue had fallen into his trap, she couldn't help but worry that he would forget the old one and find someone new.

I'm afraid my position in his heart is not as high as Aunt Zhao's. After all, Jia Huan is still staying in the Immortal School.

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt enlightened.

She knew very well that Zhang Yun逸 had a lot of bad tastes, otherwise, he would not have put her together with Aunt Zhao and Madam Xing one after another.

Although I am slightly inferior to my sister, I can cater to her preferences, be a plus, and take advantage of her to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Thinking this in his heart, he looked at his sister's eyes with a bit of expectation.

The two of them met eyes. Aunt Xue was caught off guard, but when she saw the change in Mrs. Wang's eyes, she had a hint of understanding.

Now that the Rongguo Mansion is in trouble, my sister is probably most worried about Baoyu.

Before this, the reason why she was so worried was probably because she was afraid that she would see the situation of the Rongguo Mansion and would not want to marry into it again, thus pushing Baochai into the fire pit.

Times have changed. With Zhang Yunyi supporting her, she doesn't have to worry about being forced by Madam Wang, let alone the Xue family members seizing her property.

Even if Zhang Yunyi has no interest in Baochai, she only needs to lower her posture and make some adjustments, and Zhang Yunyi will come forward.

However, if I want to completely eliminate worries and move my family to the next level, it would be best if everything goes well for my son.

Last time, Xue Pan rushed to introduce Baochai to Wang Xifeng, and today was the best opportunity. As long as everything went well on his side and he let his sister know a little, Mrs. Wang would naturally back off and avoid a falling out.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but turn her head and look towards the front yard.

I prayed silently in my heart that my silly son would not drink too much and cause trouble.
