The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 65: The Speaker Has His Own Intentions

early morning.

The first ray of sunlight shines through the window screen and into Qin Keqing's boudoir on the second floor.

With a lazy look on her face, she slowly opened the window. The breeze blew through, bringing bursts of fragrance and faint bird calls, breaking the silence in the house.

Jia Zhen was bedridden, and Tianxiang Tower was no longer as gloomy as before, becoming more lively.

She moved to the dressing table in front of the window and sat down. Baozhu came behind her and started to play with her long black hair.

Suddenly, she pointed out the window and said crisply, "Grandma, look! Grandpa has practiced again this morning."

Upon hearing this, Qin Keqing slightly turned sideways, walked around the mirror in front of her, raised her snow-white neck, and looked at the figure in the distance.

I don't know when it started, but she quietly got up earlier.

"Uncle is really...a regular person in life, and he has extraordinary perseverance!"

"That's right! You have an extraordinary heroic appearance and a strong body. If you ride a horse, I'm afraid even the general leading the army will be outshined, right?"

When Qin Keqing heard this, her heartbeat quickened involuntarily and a blush appeared on her face. Her already charming face became even more hazy and even more alluring.

Ever since she knew that Xiangling was similar to herself, she would start to have wild thoughts every night when it was quiet.

Just now Baozhu was praising Zhang Yunyi for his strong body and heroic appearance, but she suddenly began to daydream and another scene appeared in front of her eyes.

Zhang Yun逸 in the picture is still galloping, but the one he is riding is not a horse.

Although she had never consummated her marriage and had gradually forgotten the teachings of her nanny before she got married, she never thought that after such a long time, the memories buried deep in her heart would be evoked by Xiangling, who looked so similar to her.

Before getting married, she had also fantasized about a harmonious relationship between husband and wife.

But the reality gave her a bucket of cold water. She originally thought that her husband had a hidden illness, but gradually she discovered that the reason why he did not dare to spend the bridal chamber was because he was afraid of his father-in-law Jia Zhen.

Once upon a time, in those moments of despair and helplessness, she had fantasized that Jia Rong would abandon his cowardice and stand up.

Now, finally someone is willing to protect her from the wind and rain.

It's a pity that this man is not her husband...

Perhaps, it was destined in the dark. Knowing that he could not repay me, he created Xiangling, who was so similar to him?
She was daydreaming, but the figure in her sight was blocked by the window. She hesitated for a moment, wondering whether she should move.

"Grandma! The old man has stopped in front of Dou Feng Xuan and seems to be talking to his wife and two aunts."

"Oh? Did Madam also stay at Dou Feng Xuan yesterday?"

She quickly moved to the window and leaned in to look.

……

"Are these two my sister-in-law's sisters?"

In front of Doufengxuan, Zhang Yunyi asked the question even though he knew the answer.

"Sister-in-law?" Without waiting for Mrs. You to answer, Third Sister You looked at her and asked with a puzzled look on her face, "Brother-in-law has a younger brother? Could it be that..."

"What nonsense! It's my cousin!"

Yu-shih scolded him, then pulled over a pink-dressed girl beside her and introduced them to Zhang Yunyi: "These two are my sisters from my mother's family... Second sister, third sister, why don't you come and meet Master Yi!"

"Master Yi..."

Zhang Yunyi raised his hand to support her and said with a smile, "We are all family, please don't be too polite, sister You."

Following Yu's introduction, he looked at the two of them separately.

The second sister You, dressed in pink, had an almond face, rosy cheeks, red lips, white teeth, a willow-like waist, a charming figure, a pair of watery peach blossom eyes, and was extremely beautiful. When she smiled, two shallow dimples appeared on her face, and she was shy before she spoke. The third sister You, dressed in red, was as beautiful as a peach, with bright eyes and white teeth, like a red lotus emerging from the water, pure and elegant.

Unlike You Erjie, who was quiet and demure, she stood beside You Shi and was restless, swaying her waist and twisting her hips. She looked at Zhang Yunyi and asked curiously, "What is Master Yi doing?"

"Morning exercise, I do it every morning..."

"Alright!" Before Zhang Yunyi could finish, You Shi interrupted hurriedly, "Brother Yi still has to go to the government office, don't let them delay your time."

Her whereabouts were exposed by Old Lady You last night, and she was afraid that Zhang Yunyi would reveal that he ran at night, which would cause unnecessary associations.

Zhang Yunyi thought that Youshi was jealous when she said that, so he did not want to stay for long and quickly bowed and said goodbye.

As soon as he left, Third Sister You asked curiously, "Does Master Yi still hold an official position?"

In her impression, everyone in the Ning Mansion was idle and doing nothing.

"Of course! Brother Yi is not like those playboys!"

Speaking of Zhang Yunyi, Youshi couldn't help but feel proud of him, and her tone was a little different from usual. Third Sister You glanced at her sister curiously.

You Erjie, who was standing beside him, stared at Zhang Yunyi's back until he entered the Dengxian Pavilion. Then she asked softly, "Sister, does Master Yi live in the garden too?"

"Yeah!" Youshi nodded.

"Ah? Didn't sister say that Rong's wife lives across the street? Why is he still..."

She pointed at Tianxiang Tower and Dengxian Pavilion, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself from speaking.

Yu Shi looked at Yu Sanjie with a stern face and warned her, "Where he lives is it your turn to comment? I warn you, put away all your tricks of playing tricks on others, and don't play tricks in front of him. Even the master and your brother-in-law think highly of him. If you anger him, I can't protect you!"

Although he said it seriously, he was secretly calculating in his heart. He had to give the other person the benefit of the doubt. Given their relationship, he would not get angry with his own sister.

Even if he is really angry, you only need to humble yourself in front of him, be gentle enough, and use your verbal skills to make him calm down.

"It would be better if he didn't come to provoke me. Why would I provoke him?" Third Sister You said with a pout, "Sister, you think he is so important. Why are you still living in this small Dengxian Pavilion?"

Hearing her questioning Zhang Yunyi, Youshi immediately said angrily: "Do you think the master and your brother-in-law didn't make any arrangements for him? Rong'er's yard was given to him, otherwise why would his wife move here? But he thought it was troublesome and refused to live in it."

Although Jia Jing had no intention in this, at this moment, Youshi still dragged him into it.

On the one hand, family disgrace should not be made public, and she did not want Jia Zhen's affairs to be known to everyone, especially in front of her third sister.

On the other hand, it is also to emphasize Zhang Yun逸’s identity.

Unexpectedly, Third Sister You pointed at Tianxiang Tower and asked with a gossipy look on her face, "Could it be that he knows about Rong's wife..."

Youshi quickly covered her mouth and scolded her, "What nonsense are you talking about! When he moved in, he didn't even know that his wife lived across the street!"

Having said that, she began to have doubts in her heart.

Because he often went in and out of Dengxian Pavilion, he saw the changes in Xiangling. Since Zhang Yunyi could see Xiangling's past, it didn't seem surprising that he knew Qin lived in Tianxiang Tower.

Considering the fact that he couldn't wait to move into the room when Xiangling stayed the night and how he took care of his daughter-in-law, the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.

If it weren't for the 10% share of sugar, she would even doubt how sincere Zhang Yunyi was towards her.

However, even so, she still felt a strong sense of crisis.

She knew very well the lethality of her own wife to men, and she would find it difficult to compete with her on her own.

She looked back and forth at her two sisters' faces, feeling extremely conflicted.
