The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 462 Suddenly
“Ah…I’m going to die, I’m going to die!”

Wang Xifeng covered her stomach with a look of pain, lying on the bed with her arms and legs spread out, still chattering: "It's all your fault. You had to... forced me... If anything happens to the child, I won't live anymore!"

Zhang Yunyi also had a look of regret on his face, but he kept his word and did not act unreasonable.

Unfortunately, Wang Xifeng was about to give birth, and she became emotionally agitated and had a miscarriage.

Ping Erh hurriedly advised, "Madam! The baby is already full-term now, so it can't be considered premature. Stop shouting! Hongyu has already gone to tell the old lady and the ladies, don't let them hear it!"

"What are you afraid of? Even if there is something wrong, it is not my fault! Now the old lady doesn't dare to show her teeth to him, so what if someone hears it?

She appeared to be fierce but was actually weak. Although she refused to give in verbally, she finally stopped shouting and cursing.

Jia Lian, who was squatting at the door innocently, glanced at Zhang Yunyi with an embarrassed look on his face, pointed outside the house, and said hesitantly: "Brother Yi...what do you think, how about we go out and wait first?"

Zhang Yun逸 was in a difficult situation, and Jia Lian was secretly anxious, but he did not dare to urge him.

Fortunately, Wang Xifeng said, "Go, go! Staying here will only distract me!"

"Come out with me too!" Zhang Yunyi glanced at Jia Lian before walking away.

When he arrived at the courtyard, he instructed a little maid, "Go to Mengpo Zhai and ask Jinchuan to go back and get a ginseng plant!"

A few moments.

Yuanyang walked in, supporting Lady Jia and Mrs. Wang.

Seeing him, Grandmother Jia was also stunned.

Jia Lian quickly explained, "We didn't have any good ginseng at home, so I asked Brother Yi for some in case of emergency, and he came to visit in person."

With Jia Lian's endorsement, Grandmother Jia had no doubts. Seeing the concern on Zhang Yunyi's face, she couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Wang beside her.

Although Zhang Yunyi was domineering in the mansion, even his two daughters-in-law were not spared, and even Lady Wang and Yuanchun and her daughter...

However, the Rongguo Mansion was in a precarious situation and its income was not enough to cover its expenses. If they wanted to maintain the superficial glory of this large family, they could only rely on Zhang Yunyi.

At least he was true to his word.

He was very generous to Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, so he would naturally take good care of Jia Baoyu in the future.

Thinking of this, I felt much more relieved and the smile on my face became more natural.

"You've already been troubled by the affairs of the mansion, and you have to go to the government office soon. Why don't you go back and get some sleep?"

Zhang Yunyi had no intention of going to the yamen, so he shook his head and said, "No! Going to the yamen is not a big deal, but I won't be able to sleep if I go back now. Let's see what's going on! Mr. Zhen is not here, and if there is anything wrong, I can still invite the imperial physician in time."

Grandmother Jia knew very well that given the current situation of the Rongguo Mansion, it might be impossible to hire an imperial physician, so she no longer insisted after hearing this.

As they were talking, Jia She and Mrs. Xing also arrived.

Afterwards, Youshi and Qin Keqing also rushed over with Jinchuan, who had gone to get ginseng, followed by a midwife.

Although Qin Keqing was unwilling to set foot in Rongguo Mansion, she had a good relationship with Wang Xifeng.

However, he was only targeting Wang Xifeng. He did not say a word to Jia Mu and others, and just stood there without saying a word.

Yu nodded to the midwife, and when she entered the delivery room, she said, "This is the midwife who delivered Xiangling and my second sister. You can use her without worry."

Grandmother Jia was quite surprised and asked, "Why did you invite him so soon?"

Yu Shi curled her lips and said with a smile: "Yun Yi's family is big and powerful, and since she is steady, she will stay in the mansion to serve her."

Because the midwife was actually going to deliver Youshi's baby, Zhang Yunyi didn't want to make it known to everyone. In addition, he had many wives and concubines, so he would inevitably need help for such matters in the future. So he directly kept the midwife in his mansion and asked Zhen Shiyin to give her some guidance so that she could deal with some special situations.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Grandmother Jia's face. The Rongguo Mansion was not populated, and there had not been a new addition to the family for many years.

In addition, there are vacancies in the government, so the only option is to reduce the number of staff.

On the other hand, Zhang Yunyi had children born almost every year and was not short of money. However, in the current situation, if Zhang Yunyi had money, it was equivalent to having money in her family, and Grandmother Jia was happy with it.

In order to hide the embarrassment of her family's decline, she quickly changed the subject and said to Jia She and Jia Lian, "Since the midwife and ginseng have been delivered, you can accompany Yi Ge'er to the hall to have tea. I will call you if there is any situation."

Zhang Yun逸 originally wanted to refuse, but suddenly he heard a noisy sound of footsteps coming from outside the yard.

He guessed that it was the sisters from the Grand View Garden who had rushed over after hearing the news, so he nodded, put his hands behind his back, and followed Jia She and the other two to the side hall.

Although Jia Mu and others were present, Tanchun and others would definitely be more restrained so that there would not be any Shura scene.

But in this situation, it is best to avoid it.

However, he was still a step too late. Just as he arrived in front of the side hall, he saw Yuanchun and other girls as well as Jia Baoyu entering one after another.

The sharp-eyed Tanchun spoke up immediately: "Yi...Brother Yi is here too!"

Zhang Yun逸 had no choice but to stop, nodded, bowed, and followed Jia She into the side hall with an expressionless face.

Tanchun stared at his back, not saying much. She pursed her lips and followed Yuanchun and others, and came behind Lady Jia.

Wait until you have greeted the elders.

Jia Baoyu spoke first, "Didn't you say that Second Sister-in-law would give birth in a few days? How come it's early?"

"How can this be certain?" Grandmother Jia stretched out her arms to hold his head, touched it, and glanced at Mrs. Wang, "Fortunately, Brother Yi has everything he needs. He sent us a midwife and ginseng, so we don't have to rush around!"

Hearing Grandmother Jia praising Zhang Yunyi, Jia Baoyu pouted and felt bored.

His eyes wandered aimlessly, and suddenly he caught sight of Qin Keqing beside Youshi, and exclaimed, "Brother Rong's daughter-in-law..."

Before he could even say the word "woman", he suddenly felt his neck tighten and he hurriedly shouted, "Grandfather...Grandfather, I can't breathe any longer!"

As he spoke, he coughed incessantly, choking and tears streaming down his face.

Grandmother Jia then let go of her hand and shouted, "What are you shouting about? Where did this Rong'er's daughter-in-law come from? She is Yi'er's roommate. You recognized the wrong person!"

It was an open secret among the elders of the Jia family that Qin Keqing was taken as Zhang Yunyi's concubine.

But after all, she was once his nephew's wife, so Zhang Yunyi would not spread the news everywhere. The Rongguo Mansion also felt ashamed and kept it a secret.

Therefore, Jia Baoyu and others were not aware of it.

Upon hearing that Qin Keqing had become Zhang Yunyi's roommate, the ladies in the golden hairpins looked at Qin Keqing's back standing side by side with Youshi in amazement, lost in thought.

But Jia Baoyu was as sad as if he had lost his parents. He twisted his body like a candy man under Jia's mother's armpit and said in a tantrum, "Impossible! How could my grandson recognize the wrong person? It's obviously..."

He was halfway through his words when Jia's grandmother glared at him and stopped him from finishing the rest.

Grandmother Jia pulled her in front of her, pushed her towards Lady Wang, and warned her, "Go to your mother and stay there. If you dare to make trouble or talk nonsense again, ask your mother to take you back first!"

At the same time, he gave Qin Keqing a look full of apology.

Grandmother Jia had no choice but to do this. She still hoped that Zhang Yun逸 would protect Jia Baoyu and ensure that he would have no worries about food and clothing.

She was afraid that Jia Baoyu would say something nonsense again and anger Zhang Yun逸, and she was also worried that Zhang Yun逸 would misunderstand that she was deliberately condoning him.

And if it was handed over to Mrs. Wang, even if she failed to stop it, the responsibility would still be Mrs. Wang's.

Since he had said that a night of love is worth a hundred days of grace, for her sake, she couldn't take Jia Baoyu's childish words to heart.

Jia Baoyu looked at Mrs. Wang with a face full of grievance, hoping to find some comfort.

Unexpectedly, he was met with an even fiercer gaze, which frightened him so much that he dared not act like a spoiled child anymore.
