The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 697: Winning the Prize with the Toad (Part )

"My...My Duke...My Duke...Oh my, my Duke!~"

If it’s not mine, I won’t feel sorry for it.

Xia Jingui's shouts at the top of her lungs were unbridled and echoed throughout the Yihong Courtyard.

Zhang Yunyi's guess was correct. The identity of this Duke was what attracted Xia Jingui. Every time she shouted "my Duke", Xia Jingui became excited as if she had been electrocuted, and her voice rose eight octaves.

In addition, Zhang Yunyi also discovered that the more rough he was, the more excited Xia Jingui became, and she even showed an expression of enjoyment, so much so that Zhang Yunyi could not control himself.

Fortunately, Xia Jingui was not like Wang Xifeng. Her addiction was severe but her level was low, and she had Baochan to help her. Although her body was already covered with bruises, she was not completely ruined.

Although he had never encountered a similar experience, he had seen similar examples on TV in his previous life.

For those with mental illnesses, we should inject positive energy into them to offset the problem.

Xia Jingui, who was in the room, was so carried away by Zhang Yun逸's extremely aggressive words.

In the main hall, Musk Moon and Qiu Wen, who had just returned from seeing Jia Baoyu off, were terrified by what they heard.

After a while, Fang glanced at Xiren, whose breathing was becoming increasingly rapid, and said cautiously, "This...what should I do?"

"What should we do?" Xiren, whose thoughts were interrupted, said unhappily, "Didn't you see Baoyu escorting the Duke into the house just now?"

"I saw it, but..."

"What? The emperor is not anxious to see the eunuch die? What are you worried about?"

Musk Moon heard the hidden meaning in his words and said hurriedly, "I...we are just worried that if the old lady and the mistress knew about this, we..."

"You can rest assured about this!" Xiren said calmly, "If the sky falls, there will be someone taller to hold it up. If anyone needs to punish me, I will be the first one to be punished!"

"Auntie has always taken care of us. Even if something really happens, we can't let Auntie bear it alone, right?"

Musk Moon was a talkative woman. Seeing that Xiren looked confident, she quickly expressed her loyalty.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Seeing Musk Moon express her opinion, Qiu Wen also gritted her teeth and quickly agreed.

Seeing this, Xiren nodded with satisfaction and sighed, "Since you think this way, it is worth my pleading with Madam to keep you here."

"Maybe...maybe the lady is also..."

At this point, the two of them looked at each other as if they had realized something.

"I am just an aunt, and there is also a grandmother in this room. If it weren't for Madam's intention, how could I dare to send everyone away?"

At this point, Xiren sneered and asked, "How did you come to think of me as your aunt?"

"Not Madam..."

"Yes and no!" Xiren interrupted them before they finished speaking, "Don't you think about it? My monthly allowance has been raised for so many days. Why didn't I raise it later, but just before Baoyu's marriage?"

"Isn't it that Auntie has done a great service in taking care of the Second Master?"

"What do you mean by taking care of me? It's true that I'm in the Hot Spring Villa, but I'm not serving Baoyu..."

Xiren spoke lightly, but Sheyue and Qiu Wen were speechless.

Although Xiren only said half of the words, it was obvious whose territory the Hot Spring Villa belonged to and who was being served.

The two were just wondering how to respond when they heard Xiren say with a smile, "To tell you the truth, not only Baoyu knows about this, but even the old lady and the mistress know it very well. Otherwise, how could you treat me as your aunt?

Now, Baoyu's mind is all on that actor, how can he be willing to get married? Our Second Madam Bao is just a cover-up... but she is actually married to Master Yi."

"How can this be?"

Musk Moon and Qiu Wen blurted out the same question at the same time, with looks of disbelief on their faces. If it was Xiren it would be fine, but Xia Jingui was married to Jia Baoyu in a formal ceremony. With how much doting Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang had on Baoyu, how could they make such a decision?

"How is it impossible?" Xiren swore, "This is not the case in our family!" "What?"

"You are talking about Auntie's family. How did Grandma Xue get married into the family?"

Although Xue Pan's situation had not spread in Rongguo Mansion, when Xue Baochai got married, Zhang Yunyi made people spread the news.

Musk Moon and Qiu Wen were a little puzzled at first. Zhang Yunyi had clearly agreed to let Xue Baochai emulate Xiangling, so why were the Xue family in such a hurry to marry a daughter-in-law?

At this moment, after hearing Xiren's words, he already believed it about 80%.

However, Xiren had not been back for long, but she heard the inside story from Mrs. Wang.

Of course, she also heard more details than Musk Moon and Qiu Wen.

He then explained the whole cause and effect to them in detail.

After hearing this, Sheyue and Qiu Wen thought thoughtfully, "So, the old lady and the mistress also want to follow the example of the concubine's family?"

Xiren shouted sternly, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!"

In fact, she also thought so, but when she asked Mrs. Wang, she got such an answer and made herself unhappy.

Now, he followed suit and said the same words to Sheyue and Qiu Wen.

After scolding them, she looked at the two of them and said, "If you have the time to worry about this, you might as well think about yourself!"

"This..." Sheyue and Qiu Wen were both stunned and said quickly, "Sister, please show me a way!"

"If I didn't care about you, you wouldn't still be here today!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

"Since you call me sister, I have to make some plans for you. Right now, you only have three options..."

At this point, Xiren paused, looked at the two of them and said, "Given Baoyu's current situation, there is no way out for you to continue following him. I can arrange to match you with a good family.

Of course, if you want to continue following me, I can also plead for you, but I'm afraid you will have to associate with that actor in the future."

Hearing that they were in the company of actors, Musk Moon and Qiu Wen couldn't help but shrink their necks.

Although Xiren always claimed to marry a good man, at best she could only live a life of simple food and drink.

It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. These maids serving in the house usually have fine clothes and delicious food, so how can they live a hard life?

"Then... is there another way?"

Hearing this, Xiren glanced in the direction of Xia Jingui's house, swallowed her saliva and said, "You have heard it too. I am afraid that we will not let outsiders in from now on. It just so happens that I can't serve Master Yi alone. If you want to stay, I will pave the way for you. Who knows, our sisterly relationship will go a step further in the future!"

Even though I had never eaten pork, I had seen a pig walk. Xia Jingui in the house kept making babbling sounds for a long time.

Musk Moon and Qiu Wen could guess what the situation was like inside.

However, just listening to the noise inside was enough to make them breathless. How could they have the nerve to follow Xiren's words and beg her to act as a matchmaker?
For a moment, he was hesitant to speak.

Xiren saw the tangle between the two. She knew how to avoid embarrassment. She simply skipped the question and said, "It's not difficult to keep you here. However, although you are still in this mansion, you must know where you sit. No matter what you say or do, you must put me first. You must think carefully about what to say and what not to say, otherwise you will not be able to help me and cause trouble for me."

"Hey! Hey! Don't worry, sister!"

With this step, the two of them stopped hesitating and responded immediately.

"Should we get some water then, and wait to be served inside?"

"Get water? It's still too early!"
