The Red Mansion Big Liar.
Chapter 643 The Happiness of the Xue Family Master
Chapter 643 The Happiness of the Xue Family Master
Rongguo Mansion, Xue family courtyard in the northeast corner.
Mrs. Xue walked in the afterglow of the setting sun, looking around. Just as she entered the backyard, she saw Aunt Xue standing in front of the main room, coming towards her with a suspicious look on her face.
"What took you so long?"
"I..." Mrs. Xue was speechless for a moment. She paused and sighed deliberately, "Alas! ~ Sister-in-law, please don't mention it. I just met the Marquis when I arrived at the East Palace, but unexpectedly, Eunuch Xia who was with the emperor came and I was left out for a long time."
Although she arrived at Ning Mansion before lunch, Zhang Yunyi entertained Xia Shouzhong, plus the time she spent wasting time, so all in all, she had stayed in Ning Mansion for several hours.
At that time, she was in a trance, her soul was out of her mind, and she even forgot to ask Xue Baoqin about her engagement. How could she pay attention to the time?
After I finished packing and came out of Ning'an Hall, I was surprised to find that it was almost the evening hour.
Aunt Xue did not comment. She came closer and asked with concern, "Why do you look so bad?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Xue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced. In order to cover up the aftereffects on her face, she specially asked Zhang Yunyi to instruct Jin Chuan to apply some rouge and paint her face a little pale.
Fortunately, the rouge in Zhang Yunyi's house was of good quality. Aunt Xue couldn't tell the difference. She cried like a cat crying over a rat, "Could it be that Yunyi still doesn't want to help?"
It’s not that Mrs. Xue hadn’t thought about agreeing with Aunt Xue’s words, but if she did that, she wouldn’t be able to do it half-heartedly that night.
So, he quickly changed the subject and said, "We'll talk about this later. When he was entertaining Eunuch Xia, I had nothing to do and was wandering around. I happened to hear them talking about Wenlong."
"Wenlong?" Aunt Xue immediately ignored everything else and asked, "What happened to Wenlong?"
If I mention something else, I may not be able to fool her, but as long as I talk about Xue Pan, I will definitely distract Aunt Xue.
As early as when Zhang Yunyi asked her to find an excuse to go to Aunt Xue's room at night, she agreed reluctantly.
Now, after resting for an hour or so, I felt myself recovered and was enjoying the taste even more.
While cleaning the marks on her face, she made up her mind to use Xue Pan's request for medicine as a breakthrough point and have a candlelight talk with Aunt Xue at night.
However, she didn't expect that Aunt Xue was waiting for her to come back.
Thinking that it was still some time before dark, she touched her belly and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. It's time for dinner now. It's hard to explain this matter in one sentence. It's a long story, and it's not convenient for the servants to hear it. Sister-in-law, why don't you prepare dinner in the house and send the servants away later, and we can talk slowly."
Zhang Yunyi did not specifically instruct her to send the servants away.
Firstly, he firmly believed that Mrs. Xue would definitely cover up something.
Secondly, not only did he feel at home in the Rongguo Mansion, even Lady Jia had to provide him with protection.
And now, he has captured the two sisters-in-law of the Xue family in one fell swoop. With his current status, what can he do even if the two maids know about it?
I was just afraid that it would be more convenient in the future, so I didn’t take it too seriously.
Aunt Xue was so concerned that she was confused and didn't suspect anything.
He quickly ordered dinner to be prepared, and Mrs. Xue also took the opportunity to return to her room, wiped the traces on her body, and changed into a simple and light home dress.
As soon as I stepped out of the house, I saw that Aunt Xue had already prepared dinner and came to invite me personally.
After entering the inner room, Aunt Xue greeted Mrs. Xue II, and the two sisters-in-law sat facing each other on the edge of the kang.
Aunt Xue poured a glass of wine for Mrs. Xue II, and then smiled and said, "Tell me quickly, what happened to Wenlong?"
It’s not that she hadn’t thought about it before, so she went directly to Zhang Yunyi to ask.
But first of all, everything must be done with a purpose. She didn't know the specific situation yet, and she didn't know where to start asking.
Secondly, not long ago, she told Zhang Yunyi about the threat posed by Second Madam Xue. Zhang Yunyi immediately found the eunuch around the emperor and mentioned Xue Pan.
In addition, Mrs. Xue was very secretive about the matter, so she couldn't help but wonder whether Zhang Yun逸 had finally made up his mind to resolve the issue of his son's identity.
At this moment, he asked in a hurry, fearing that he would be seen as rushing him and make Zhang Yunyi unhappy.
As for Mrs. Xue's reaction, she didn't think much about it. She just thought that she had hit a snag in front of Zhang Yunyi and was deliberately trying to be nice.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xue sighed and said, "Alas! Sister-in-law should also persuade Wenlong. It's okay for him to sleep with prostitutes on weekdays, but why is he still..."
Having said this, she shook her head, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Aunt Xue's heart trembled, and she hurriedly asked, "What's the matter? Did you get jealous of someone again and cause some trouble?"
"That's not..."
Mrs. Xue hesitated for a moment, raised her glass, clinked it with Aunt Xue's, and then said, "Sister-in-law, have a drink first to calm down."
Having said that, he raised his hand and drank it all in one gulp.
Although Aunt Xue was not in the mood to drink, she had to drink a glass with him.
Mrs. Xue then dropped her wine glass, leaned forward slightly, and moved closer to Aunt Xue. She lowered her voice and told the story of Zhang Yunyi helping Xue Pan get medicine. Fang said, "Although young people are inevitably unrestrained, medicine is three-quarters poisonous. If you take too much of that fierce medicine, what if you get sick, how can you continue the family's incense in the future?"
"This……"
He does not mean that.
Although Mrs. Xue was just making small talk, Aunt Xue took it to heart and fell silent for a while.
Mrs. Xue picked up the wine pot, poured a glass for Aunt Xue and herself, and raised her glass again and said, "I shouldn't say this, but I am Wenlong's aunt after all. If I don't tell my sister-in-law, I will feel uneasy!"
"Yes, yes! Thanks for reminding me!"
Aunt Xue quickly clinked glasses with her again, complaining: "Why is Yun Yi..."
She blurted out the words subconsciously, but when she realized that she was in front of Mrs. Xue, she quickly swallowed back the words blaming Zhang Yunyi for indulging Xue Pan.
Originally, she couldn't help feeling a little jealous of Zhang Yunyi's unstinting efforts to help Jia Baoyu hold his ground and fight against Prince Beijing.
Now, seeing that Zhang Yunyi also responded to Xue Pan's requests, she felt relieved, but the emotions in her heart of helping Xue Pan to get the medicine for the tiger and wolf were difficult to describe, and she felt mixed emotions.
Mrs. Xue saw it all, but pretended not to notice. While pouring wine for Aunt Xue, she consoled her, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. We haven't got the medicine yet. Even if Wenlong doesn't listen, you can go find the Marquis and ask him to withhold the medicine."
I have to say that Mrs. Xue also put a lot of effort into it.
It seems that he is giving advice, but in fact, he is trying to please Zhang Yun逸 by using Xue Pan's request for medicine to remind Aunt Xue.
After drinking two glasses of wine, she couldn't help but think of the feeling of numbness in her bones and tendons at noon. Her face suddenly turned red and her heart was hot. She swallowed unconsciously, and her legs, which were sitting cross-legged, were also tightly twisted together.
On the one hand, he spared no effort to pour wine for Aunt Xue to pave the way for Zhang Yunyi's arrival, and on the other hand, he gave her false comfort in an intermittent manner.
Although Aunt Xue wanted to go find Zhang Yunyi immediately, she knew that now was not the right time, so she had to drown her sorrows in alcohol.
Suddenly.
There was a creaking sound coming from outside. Aunt Xue, who was still drunk, thought it was a servant coming in and shouted, "Who is it? Didn't I tell you not to wait on me?"
However, her question received no response, instead there was the sound of approaching footsteps.
Aunt Xue was about to get angry when she heard a familiar voice: "Since the concubine doesn't need anyone to serve her, then you will serve the master today!"
Aunt Xue's head suddenly buzzed and she sobered up a lot.
As soon as she raised her drunken eyes, she saw Zhang Yunyi walking in with his head held high and chest puffed out. She hurriedly looked at Mrs. Xue II opposite her.
But Mrs. Xue II was seen with her arms folded across her chest, looking terrified.
Aunt Xue was speechless and didn't know what to do, but then she saw Zhang Yunyi sitting down next to Mrs. Xue II in a dignified manner.
He reached out his hand and hugged Mrs. Xue, who looked like a frightened rabbit, into his arms.
While raising her hand to pull off the ribbon around her waist, she said with a smile, "Since the Second Madam is here, please lend a hand to the Concubine!"
This sudden change left both of them stunned.
Mrs. Xue didn't expect that Zhang Yunyi would go back on his word. Not only did he not play according to the rules, but he also sold himself out right from the start.
When Aunt Xue heard this, she had no idea what was going on.
He raised his shaking fingers and questioned Mrs. Xue II, who was standing opposite him: "You! You actually plotted against me!"
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yunyi grabbed his hand.
Zhang Yun逸 raised his leg, pushed the table inward, and pulled Aunt Xue into his arms.
"Didn't the concubine want me to drag her down with her? Now, you are even. I will be your witness today, so that you two sisters-in-law can decide who is better."
After saying that, he folded his arms, looked at the two people who were facing each other, and said with a smirk, "It all depends on your abilities!"
Even if there are many pigs, they will still fight for the trough. The most terrible thing is comparison in everything.
Or maybe it was because of the alcohol, but after a moment of hesitation, the two of them were actually a little flustered.
After all, Aunt Xue had the experience of keeping pace with Mrs. Wang. Once this layer of window paper was broken, she quickly found her state.
Mrs. Xue had been holding back for too long and had just tasted the sweetness.
For a while, everyone showed off their skills, allowing Zhang Yunyi to satisfy the two masters of the Xue family who were not lucky enough to enjoy the treat.
