The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 77 Chanting the Goose
"Why are you dressed like this if you don't have your face open?"

After half an hour, Zhang Yunyi stared at the bed sheets and pondered.

Ping'er's identity as a maid was known to everyone, and she was also dressed up. He really did not expect this result.

"Ah!~"

Ping'er was startled when she heard the words. She paused while spinning her fingers around the belt around her waist. She looked at him with complicated eyes and stammered, "I...I didn't mean to lie. It's just...it's just that Master didn't ask, so I forgot to tell you..."

Although people value reputation these days, there are still men like Jia Lian who love to hook up with married women. When she saw Zhang Yunyi staring at the bed sheet with a suspicious look on his face, she thought he was the same as Jia Lian.

Zhang Yun逸 was not dissatisfied with the result. Although he also had some grievances towards Cao thief, he was not as bad as Jia Lian.

I just feel that Wang Xifeng must have ulterior motives in making such an arrangement.

Due to the limitations of the times, a couple had to be caught in adultery. If Ping'er was a real prostitute, no matter what Wang Xifeng had up her sleeve, she could turn against him and deny it.

Of course, it doesn't mean that he can be caught so easily.

Not to mention that glass has been invented now, even if it hadn't, the Rong family wouldn't have been so petty with him over a maid with a face.

What's more, this maid with a handsome face is a fake.

However, once the trouble gets out, it may not be so easy to get into the backyard of Rong Mansion.

"I can let bygones be bygones for what happened before, but tell me now!"

"This..." Ping'er hesitated.

"What? Do you still want to hide it from me?" Zhang Yunyi asked.

"I dare not! But, since this concerns grandma's reputation, please do not leak it out."

Ping'er said with a troubled look on her face, "According to the rules of the mansion, when a man grows up and has not married, he is first given two people to serve him. Second Master Lian had two in his room. Later, when Madam got married, they were found to be not good and sent away within half a year. Although it is difficult for others to say it, Madam herself cannot bear it and is also worried about being known as jealous, so she asked me to dress like this to hide it from others."

After hearing this, Zhang Yunyi felt a little suspicious.

Since Wang Xifeng used Ping'er to conceal her true intentions, she must have kept it a secret. Although Jia Lian must be aware of this, he is now in Jiangnan and may not return until the end of the year.

Besides, as Ping'er said, it would not be good for her if this matter was exposed.

Could it be that Wang Xifeng thought that by using this to inform Jia Lian, she could blackmail herself?
Seeing that he remained silent, Ping'er looked at him anxiously and said sadly, "Master, you won't dislike me and don't want me anymore, right?"

"Dislike?" Zhang Yunyi asked in astonishment, "How could that be? Go back and pack your things, and remember to bring your indenture with you tomorrow."

This was just his guess at the moment, and he couldn't rule out the possibility that she really couldn't tolerate Ping'er. Since she didn't say anything, he was happy to pretend to be confused.

Ping'er felt relieved after hearing this. She stood up tremblingly and said, "I have wasted quite some time. Madam must be getting impatient. I will go back first."

Zhang Yunyi put his arm around her slender waist, letting her sit sideways on his thighs. He held her pink back with one hand and rubbed her slender and tight thighs with the other. He said in a gentle voice, "I didn't know you had never been here before, so I stopped a little late. Are you feeling better now?"

Talking about the previous violent torture, Ping'er was still in shock. Feeling the burning heat between her thighs, she suddenly became flustered. She wanted to break free but was afraid that Zhang Yunyi would be dissatisfied, so she could only twist her slender waist nervously.

She trembled and said, "It's my fault. I failed to serve you well..." Zhang Yunyi saw that she was nervous and comforted her, "It's okay. There is a long way to go. When you recover, you will follow me and have many opportunities to serve me."

"Thank you for your consideration, sir." She said anxiously, "I...I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to go back any later."

Zhang Yunyi patted her hips, helped her stand up, and said, "I'll take you out of the house!"

Ping'er's cheeks immediately turned red, and she said shyly, "If someone sees me now, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for Madam. Master, please don't send me off. I can do it myself."

As they were talking, there was a knock on the door, and then Xiangling shouted, "Master! Why is the door locked? Are you in?"

Just as Zhang Yunyi was about to go out and open the door, Ping'er hurriedly grabbed him and pleaded, "Sir, please send Xiangling away. I'll hide here first and go out later."

Although Wang Xifeng had made a promise, it had not been fulfilled after all. Now she was still a member of Jia Lian's household, and people would inevitably gossip about her.

Zhang Yunyi knew her concerns and did not force her. He nodded and walked away. He waited until Ping'er closed the door before opening it.

Xiangling walked into the room, sniffed, and quickly covered her mouth and nose, saying with some disdain, "Master, why don't you open the door? The room is full of the smell of rotten food!"

The corners of Zhang Yunyi's mouth twitched slightly, and he immediately bit back, "Why did it take so long? Didn't I tell you to come back early? I thought you were staying there and not coming back, so I was ready to go to bed!"

"It's my fault. I saw it was raining heavily outside, so I thought I would wait until it stopped before coming back." Xiangling clenched her hands, like a child who had made a mistake, and hurriedly explained, "I stayed in the house all day, and only with Sister Ruizhu could I visit Grandma Xiaorong's room."

Zhang Yunyi thought for a moment and said, "If you are bored, how about asking my sister-in-law to buy some poetry books tomorrow and you can flip through them and learn to write some poetry when you are free?"

"Really?" Xiangling exclaimed, "I have read those poetry collections in the young lady's room before, but the young lady didn't have time to teach me. Can the master write poetry?"

"Although I'm not good at it, I can still teach you now. I'll find you a female master later!"

Xiangling smiled happily upon hearing this and said, "Thank you, sir! Please wait a moment! Once I have cleaned up the room, I will wait for you to rest!"

As she spoke, she walked to the window, pushed it open, and lowered the mosquito-proof curtain, saying, "The smell in this room is too strong. I'll open the doors and windows first to get rid of the smell!"

Seeing her walking towards the room next to the stairs again, Zhang Yunyi hurriedly stepped forward, picked her up horizontally, kissed the rouge mark on her forehead, and said anxiously, "You've been delayed for so long, I'm getting impatient, let's go back to the room and rest first, and keep these for tomorrow!"

Xiangling's body went limp in his arms, and she unconsciously put her arms around his neck.

Hearing him hurriedly shouting that he wanted to go back to his room to rest, my cheeks felt hotter and I quickly buried my head in his broad chest.

She whispered, "When will Master teach me how to write poetry?"

Zhang Yunyi carried Xiangling upstairs and said with a smile, "If you read 300 Tang poems, you will be able to recite them even if you can't write them. Today, I will teach you to recite 'Ode to the Goose'."

"Master, are you talking about the poem by Luo Binwang?" Xiangling raised her head from his arms and said with a blushing face, "I have already memorized this poem, Goose, goose, goose... Singing with my neck bent to the sky..."

However, after reading this, I could not continue and could only repeat over and over again: "Uh...oh...goose..."
