The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 93 The family was arranged clearly
The front hall of Ning Mansion.

Jia Zhen raised his glass and clinked it with Zhang Yunyi's, then said indirectly, "Yunyi! I'm telling you, there's a lot of hidden stuff in this glass. You can't sell it to anyone or set a price like snowflake cotton candy. If you don't understand something, tell me and I'll help you figure it out."

"It is not the time to consider these things yet. The factory is too small, so we will focus on using it in the palace first. Once the new factory is built, we will consider selling it to other places. I will trouble you then."

Zhang Yunyi said perfunctorily, then changed the subject and said, "Some of the lampshades produced recently do not conform to the palace regulations. I will bring some back to replace them in the mansion later."

Jia Zhen could not entrust his wife to someone else without asking for something in return, even though all his compensation was given to Youshi, which could not even be calculated in billions.

But Jia Zhen had not gained any benefits after all, so he had to give him some hope. It just so happened that he could do something that would benefit him and just pass it on.

It is said to be non-compliant with regulations, but in fact it is a defective product with slight defects.

However, the glass lampshade was his first invention, and he had no reference. In addition, it was discarded from the palace, so even if it had some flaws, they were insignificant. Moreover, glass is very valuable nowadays, so even if it has some flaws, it would not feel shabby to use.

Although he had never seen the glass kang screen that Wang Xifeng had in person, he learned from Jia Rong that it was also uneven and had major flaws.

After all, there was no technology for flat glass.

Upon hearing this, Jia Rong immediately smiled and said, "Oh! This is really very impressive! I'm afraid that apart from the palace, our family is also the first to use this, right? I toast to uncle!"

Jia She came back empty-handed at noon and returned home in disappointment after lunch.

Without the women from the Rong Mansion, the dinner seemed much quieter, but Madam Xing did not leave, so the dinner was still divided into inside and outside areas.

Zhang Yun逸 was unwilling to go to the backyard, but was pestered by Mrs. Xing, so he simply went to the front hall and had a meal with Jia Zhen and his son.

Looking at the wine glass that Jia Rong was holding up, he declined, "There is an order of seniority, and if you want to toast, you should toast your father first! Could it be that your nephew doesn't regard Uncle Yi as a family member, but treats him as a guest?"

Upon hearing this, Jia Rong looked at his father with fear.

When Jia Zhen heard Zhang Yun逸 call him a family member, he immediately smiled and rarely did he scold Jia Rong.

"Yes! We are all family, listen to your Uncle Yi!"

"My younger brother has just entered the officialdom and is not very experienced in the world. He will have to rely on me more in the future!"

Zhang Yunyi said, holding up his wine glass, "I'll toast to you, brother!"

In addition to avoiding Mrs. Xing, he had another consideration.

As the saying goes, wine is the medium of lust. Jia Zhen drank a lot of wine at noon, which might have aroused his thoughts of Qin Keqing.

If it were a different time, he wouldn't mind catching him in the act and reporting it to Jia Jing.

However, I had not expected to receive the reward today, and I had already made an appointment to go to Doufengxuan in the evening to inspect the results.

In order to prevent Jia Zhen from causing trouble and affecting his performance, he planned to get him drunk to avoid ruining his good deeds.

Jia Zhen had no doubt about it. When he heard him keep calling them his family and saying that he would depend on him in the future, he had already become complacent.

He kept toasting and accepting all offers, and in a short while he began to look drunk.

Jia Rong, who was watching from the sidelines, gradually figured out what was going on.

He didn't think that Zhang Yunyi was considering his wife, but rather wondered if he didn't understand his father's intentions and was worried that he would catch him having an affair with his stepmother, so he kept urging him to drink.

Seeing that his father was already lying on the table, he hurriedly leaned over to Zhang Yunyi's ear and said, "Uncle Yi, don't worry about going to the Madam's room later. If you are worried, your nephew will look after the master for you later!"

It was a rare idea of ​​his to avoid offending Jia Zhen and at the same time take credit from Zhang Yun逸.

This undoubtedly added a layer of insurance to Zhang Yunyi. He patted Jia Rong on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "You are so filial, and it is also a blessing for Brother Zhen. If Brother Zhen has any problems later, just go to Dengxian Pavilion and let him know."

He helped Jia Rong protect Qin Keqing, and Jia Rong helped him stand guard. Zhang Yunyi couldn't help but feel emotional. He didn't expect that he and Jia Rong could help each other like this.

He even hid it from Jia Zhen, so naturally he would not admit anything to Jia Rong.

Therefore, this statement is ambiguous.

However, Jia Rong heard it and thought that Youshi would stay in Dengxian Pavilion at night.

Patting his chest, he nodded hurriedly and said, "Uncle Yi, don't worry. I will definitely live up to your trust." "Come on! Have a couple more drinks with your father."

Upon hearing this, Jia Rong hurriedly pulled Jia Zhen, who was lying on the table, apart and poured wine into his mouth, saying, "Master! Uncle Yi is offering you a drink!"

After drinking two more cups, Jia Zhen was unconscious and snoring.

Jia Rong just stopped, stood up and said to Zhang Yunyi: "Uncle Yi, you go and do your work first, I will leave this to you, nephew!"

"When I get the glass lampshade back, I'll tell my sister-in-law to buy you a few more. You can give the extra ones to your friends!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Rong could not contain his joy, and thought to himself that Uncle Yi was indeed generous. He had only been keeping an eye on him, but he had actually been able to gain quite a bit of benefit. He should also follow up in terms of service.

He hurriedly said, "Uncle Yi, please go and do your work first. I will give you two more cups later depending on the situation."

Zhang Yunyi was satisfied with this, nodded, left the front hall and went straight to Huifang Garden.

After crossing the backyard and entering the Tianxiang Tower archery range, he ran into Youshi head-on.

"Oh! Why did you drink for so long? My mother is getting anxious and keeps urging me to go to the front hall to take a look!"

Zhang Yunyi put his arm around her slender waist and said with a smile, "Aren't you worried that he might come out to cause trouble at night, so you gave him a little more wine?"

"Disrupt the situation? Disrupt what situation?" Yu Shi asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"Although I sent Ruizhu to Tianxiang Tower this afternoon, if he takes advantage of his drunkenness to cause trouble for my nephew's wife, where will Ruizhu and the others go to find me?"

"Yes, yes! I had actually forgotten about that!"

"Go to Dengxian Pavilion and keep watch. If anyone comes to report the news, remember to come and inform them in time!"

Originally, he planned to let Youshi stay outside Doufengxuan and keep an eye on the situation in Tianxianglou so that he could notify them in time.

Now, even if Jia Zhen really woke up, he had Jia Rong as an outside helper to tip him off. In order to avoid him not being able to find anyone in Dengxian Pavilion, he arranged for Youshi to stay there.

"Report?"

Youshi was secretly wondering, could it be that besides herself, there was someone else like Zhang Yunyi in Jia Zhen's room?

"Brother Rong, when my glass lampshades arrive, you can buy him a few more."

"Yun Yi, why do you care about him?" When Youshi heard that she would give Jia Rong benefits, she said unhappily.

"Hey! It's just a small amount of money. He doesn't have as big an appetite as Jia Zhen. Just give him a little and do things for us, which will save us a lot of trouble."

With the word "we" as a basis, Youshi no longer objected.

When we arrived at Doufengxuan, Old Lady You was waiting at the gate.

"Oh! Master, you are finally here. Please come in quickly. My second sister is in the room!"

As she spoke, she pushed Zhang Yun逸 to You Erjie's door, then quickly went back into the house and closed the door.

Zhang Yunyi glanced towards Tianxiang Tower and saw that the doors and windows were closed. He took a deep breath and pushed open the door.

The two red candles in the room suddenly swayed in the wind.

The candlelight shone on the half-drawn bed, illuminating the graceful figure of You Erjie, who was kneeling on the bed like a dog.

When she heard the door open, she turned around, her face flushed, her eyes tearing, and she twisted her hips and looked at Zhang Yunyi with shame on her face.

……

The candlelight flickered, as if playing with the air in the room. Every jump was accompanied by changes in light and shadow, constantly pulling and twisting the figures in the room.

The candle wax slowly slides down, condenses into crystal clear beads, and accumulates into a small wax mountain on the candlestick, witnessing the passage of time.
