The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 743: One Pot
Although they had tried to reduce the number of accompanying personnel as much as possible, there were still dozens of people accompanying the master alone. If you include the personal maids, there were probably less than a hundred of them.

Even though Aunt Wu had made arrangements in advance, she had never seen such a large event before, so she was still busy and flustered.

It was not until dusk that the group was finally settled.

After the women moved into their respective courtyards, had dinner, and began to enjoy the comfort of the hot springs.

Zhang Yunyi came to the outside of the manor alone and met a carriage coming from a distance.

"Why...why don't you go home? Why do you have to ask me to come here?"

Mrs. Mei leaned out of the car, bent over, looked around, and asked in confusion.

Zhang Yunyi didn't comment, he just pulled her out of the car and into his arms, and asked, "Did you bring it?"

"Um……"

Mrs. Mei, who was pulled into his arms, had already gone limp. She couldn't help but groan, then blushed again and added, "I brought it."

"Stay for a few more days when you come. I'll take you there first. It's a good opportunity for you to keep Mrs. Xue company and have a good chat."

Although Xue Baoqin had been taken as his concubine for half a year, the original arrangement was interrupted by the death of the retired emperor.

Now that the national mourning period has ended, he has begun to finish the work.

Although the charges brought against Prince Ning and Niu Jizong by the retired emperor and the emperor also created momentum for Zhang Yun逸.

After two years of observation, he had already let down his guard against Mei Pi.

But it is better to be cautious. He did not intend to take charge of the cancellation of the engagement. Instead, he acted as a go-between and gave slight hints so that the Mei and Xue families could cancel the engagement privately.

Logically, since he wanted to sever his ties with the matter, he should have asked Mrs. Xue to come over and talk.

But for these wild flowers outside, this trip to the hot springs is a feast of rain after a long drought.

For Zhang Yunyi, isn’t this a feast for activating bonds?

The reason why he brought Mrs. Mei to the Hot Spring Villa instead of letting Mrs. Xue go there was indeed, as he said, to find a companion for Mrs. Xue.

In fact, with his experience with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and sisters of the Xue family, he also planned to take the opportunity to break the window paper of Jiao Xing.

He planned to arrange for Jiao Xing to come under the guise of visiting Xiang Ling after two days when he had some free time, and use the excuse of living with Xiang Ling so that he could repeat the old trick that he had used so well in the Xue family.

However, although Zhang Yun逸 did not hide his intentions, Mrs. Mei did not know the situation of Mrs. Xue II.

When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he quickly pushed Zhang Yunyi away and smoothed the wrinkles on his collar.

Zhang Yunyi did not stop her. He watched her calm down before leading her into the yard where Mrs. Xue II was.

As they had been greeted beforehand, Mrs. Xue was not surprised by their arrival.

However, Mrs. Mei was not clear about her relationship with Zhang Yun逸, but Mrs. Xue knew everything about the situation between them.

It is inevitable that a little more scrutiny will be added.

Mrs. Mei knew her own family affairs. Her son was not ashamed of it but proud of it. He often mixed with Xue Pan and others.

She had some guesses about the reason why the Xue family broke off the engagement, and she couldn't help feeling embarrassed when facing the gaze of Second Mrs. Xue.

Zhang Yunyi saw this, stretched out his arms, and hugged the two people who were greeting and chatting, and pulled them into his arms.

He sat directly on the chair in the room, opened his legs, let the two of them face each other, and sat on his legs.

This sudden action immediately changed the situation of the two. Mrs. Mei was secretly shocked, but Mrs. Xue was so angry that she blushed.

Zhang Yunyi ignored them and instead supported the two men's backs and moved closer to them.

A pair of big hands slid down her back and patted her twice. Fang said in a deep voice, "Even though the engagement may not be successful, the love is still there. Although we can't be relatives, we can still be sisters! We will be family in the future. Let's deal with the matter first and eliminate the estrangement. Tomorrow..."

At this point, he paused and changed his words, "The day after tomorrow at the latest, I will come over to inspect your exchange experience."

Although, he also wanted to have a bite of the fresh bond, but even a master of time management like him still couldn't arrange it.

The reward originally promised to Madam Wang and Xia Jingui was delayed due to the division of shares in Quyuan Zatan. They had just moved in today, so naturally they could not delay any longer.

Even though he had arranged for Li Wan and Aunt Zhao to stay in the hotel based on the principle of saving time, it would be convenient to catch them all in one fell swoop.

But there are also Princess Beijing's sisters, Aunt Xue, and Madam Xing, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Not to mention, Xue Baoqin, Tanchun, Shi Xiangyun and others who have not yet married into the family.

Giving a deadline of the day after tomorrow was a decision Zhang Yun逸 had made after careful consideration.

The two of them were still a little nervous, but after being secluded for a long time, they were aroused by Zhang Yunyi's teasing. When they heard that they had to wait for two more days, they actually felt regretful.

However, since it was their first meeting, neither of them had the nerve to cancel the engagement immediately.

On the contrary, Zhang Yunyi wanted to catch the tail of the fetters, and reminded them: "You should discuss it carefully first, and when I come, I will be a witness for you."

After saying this, he was afraid of provoking the two men's anger, so he quickly fled.

Even though Zhang Yun逸 was quite confident in himself, the fighting power of the second branch of Rongguo Mansion was second to none and no one could match it.

Not to mention the three sisters of the You family, even if Qin Keqing and Xiangling were added to the entire old team of the family, they would not be able to compete with them.

Li Wan didn't want to say much. Even Lady Wang and Aunt Zhao were not easy to deal with. Only Xia Jingui slightly lowered her standard.

But if Xiren, Yuchuan and Baochan were added to the mix, Zhang Yunyi would not dare to slack off and would have to go all out, and that was before he even counted...

Well, it’s not that Zhang Yunyi doesn’t want to eat rice with toppings, it’s just that he’s really worried about getting himself killed, and he has the desire but not the courage.

After leaving Mrs. Xue's courtyard, he took a detour back to the courtyard where the second branch of the Rongguo Mansion was located.

After closing the courtyard doors on both sides, they carried Lady Wang, Aunt Zhao, Li Wan and Xia Jingui to the edge of the pool one by one in order of age and threw them into the hot spring pool.

At first, Xia Jingui was a little confused about this arrangement, until the last one was thrown into the pool.

Looking at the three people who had been completely stained by the hot spring water, he suddenly realized what had happened.

She had long been aware of Mrs. Wang's situation. Although Aunt Zhao had not had much contact with her, she had heard about it.

Only her sister-in-law Li Wan surprised her and made her feel a little regretful.

She originally thought that Xiren had overtaken her in the initiative, but she could take advantage of Mrs. Wang's help and come out on top.

Unexpectedly, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, although seemingly silent, had already started playing tricks behind my back.

Mrs. Wang was older than him and had just given birth to a child, so she did not dare to compete with him.

Aunt Zhao was just a concubine, and she was not worthy to be on the same level as Li Wan. She only regarded the mediocre Li Wan as her number one rival.

However, although she was full of confidence, she felt a little nervous when she saw Li Wan's eager look.

Aunt Zhao seemed to have seen through the mystery long ago. She was calm and composed, with a pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes that kept moving between the faces of Lady Wang and the other two, finally settling on Zhang Yunyi.

Although Mrs. Wang was the only person who was familiar with the business, she was not satisfied with adding two more people to her share of the profits.

However, she was also very clear that she had just finished her confinement, and that several people were benefiting from her. Zhang Yunyi always had to put himself first and act magnanimously.

Sure enough, Zhang Yun逸 left Xia Jingui behind and ran straight towards him.

She also quickly leaned over and climbed onto the steps by the pool.

That night, the sound of water in the courtyard rose and fell, as if there was a vicious dragon causing trouble in the hot spring pool.

The four people by the pool were so frightened that they fled in panic and hid beside the rockery deep in the pool.

It can be said that when you reach the end of the water, you can watch the clouds rise.
