The Red Mansion Big Liar

At first, after being sulking for two days, he felt a little itchy and wanted to get closer to his sisters.

But when he thought about the bookstore and the story, they had nothing to do with him, and he lost interest.

In addition, his sisters now all live in the garden, and it is rare for him to meet them if he doesn't go there. As time goes by, he becomes more and more embarrassed.

That day, the sky suddenly became cloudy in the afternoon and changed.

Jia Baoyu felt really stuffy in the room and had no mood for a nap, so he got up and walked around.

He has always loved hanging out with his daughters. Now that the sisters have moved into the garden, there are stories to distract him. He feels that the distance between them is far, both physically and mentally.

But Yuanyang, from Grandmother Jia's side, didn't want to pay attention to him, so after thinking it over, he went to Rong Xi Tang.

It happened that Mrs. Wang was taking a nap in the inner room. Jin Chuan sat beside her, massaging her legs with her eyes slightly closed and sleepy.

He tiptoed behind Jinchuan and suddenly took off the pendant on her ear.

He chuckled and said, "Why are you so sleepy?"

Jin Chuan was startled, and when she looked up and saw that it was Baoyu, she calmed down again, still closing her eyes, raised her pink fist, and weakly rubbed Wang Fu-ren's calf.

On that day, she was bewitched by Aunt Zhao and her heart was moved for a moment, but when she calmed down, she became worried.

Although her idea was good, she also knew that when Jia Baoyu saw Jia Zheng, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. If he knew that he had to compete with Jia Zheng, he would probably avoid him.

Although this would allow her to become the master's concubine, Jia Zheng was already old, and it would also displease Mrs. Wang, so he was hesitant.

Seeing that Jin Chuan ignored him, Jia Baoyu took out the Xiangxue Runjin Pill from his purse like offering a treasure and put it into Jin Chuan's mouth.

Jin Chuan was in a daze and held the Xiangxue Runjin Pill that was given to her in her mouth.

Seeing her sucking the Xiangxue Runjindan he handed her, Jia Baoyu became even more aggressive, came up to hold her hand, and said with a smile: "I will ask my wife for you tomorrow, and we can be together!"

Lately, his sisters haven't been as active around him as they used to be. He can't help feeling lost and wants to find some sense of existence.

Jin Chuan was stunned for a moment, but before she could say anything, Jia Baoyu said, "Otherwise, I will marry you when my wife wakes up."

As he spoke, he moved forward.

Jin Chuan suddenly woke up and pushed him out in a panic.

She regretted deeply in her heart. If she had not given Aunt Zhao the chance to speak, she could have gone with the flow now.

But now that Aunt Zhao has brought a message to Jia Zheng, how can she pretend not to know?

Although she had read few books, she had been influenced by them and had heard Mrs. Wang complain about things like hypocrisy and sanctimoniousness.

If Jia Zheng thought that he was ungrateful, even if he really followed Jia Baoyu, it would not last long.

She would even be accused of instigating and seducing Jia Baoyu.

Thinking of this, she said hurriedly: "The golden hairpin fell into the well. If it's yours, then it's yours. I'll tell you a trick. Go to the east courtyard and get Huan'er and Caiyun!"

Jia Baoyu licked his face and smiled: "Let him go wherever he wants, I will just stay with you..."

As he spoke, he moved forward again.

However, before she could finish her words, Mrs. Wang, who was taking a nap on the chaise longue, suddenly sat up and slapped Jin Chuan in the face.

He pointed at her and cursed, "You lowly little whore! You have corrupted a good man!"

She was not a deep sleeper to begin with, and as soon as Jia Baoyu came in, she heard the noise.

She also wanted to give the gold bracelet to Baoyu, but was obstructed by Grandmother Jia. However, if Jia Baoyu asked for it himself, given Grandmother Jia's doting love for him, she would most likely not object.

That's why she kept pretending to sleep.

She was already resentful of Jia Zheng for spending all these years in Aunt Zhao's room, but Jin Chuan insisted on instigating Jia Baoyu to go to the East Courtyard, which touched Mrs. Wang's sore spot.

Therefore, the tone of the word "都" is further emphasized.

When Jia Baoyu saw Mrs. Wang suddenly wake up, he flew into a rage and was so frightened that he no longer cared about asking for Jin Chuan. He ran away in fear.

Half of Jinchuan's face was burning, but her heart felt as cold as if swept by the winter wind.

As the head maidservant of Madam Wang, how could she not have this little sensitivity?

It was only in the face of Jia Baoyu's repeated provocations that she spoke without thinking in desperation and ignored Mrs. Wang on the couch.

However, facing Mrs. Wang's anger, he, the instigator who had just sworn to do so, just tried to escape.

Not to mention the words he asked for just now, he didn't even say a word to plead for mercy on her part. How could she not be heartbroken?

She knew very well why Mrs. Wang was angry, and she did not dare to use Jia Zheng's message through Aunt Zhao to argue. She just knelt on the ground, saying nothing, and acted as if she accepted the punishment.

However, things did not go as planned. Mrs. Wang told Yuchuan, who had hurried over, "Call your mother and bring your sister out."

Jin Chuan kowtowed and begged, "I won't dare to do it again. Madam, if you want to scold me, just do it. It's a favor from heaven that you don't ask me to leave. I have been with Madam for more than ten years. If you drive me out now, I will never see anyone again!"

Although Jin Chuan begged desperately, Mrs. Wang was determined to drive her away, so she called Jin Chuan'er's mother, Old Lady Bai, to take her away.

As the head maid, the most important thing for her is loyalty. Mrs. Wang is no longer confident about Jin Chuan.

He didn't dare to bring up the past again and asked her to serve Jia Baoyu.

She knew very well what Jia Zheng was thinking. Without this obstacle, she was afraid that Jia Zheng would applaud.

However, Aunt Zhao was enough to bother her, and adding Jin Chuan would be one thing, but she could not tolerate the flirting and eye contact between her and Aunt Zhao.

So, just send him away and be done with it.

Chapter 239 Put it to death

White House.

Jin Chuan, who was taken back, stood in the main room with a dejected look on her face.

Mrs. Bai didn't care about her daughter's feelings. She pointed at her and asked, "Why did Madam suddenly get so angry? She even wanted to kick you out? You are going to destroy our family's livelihood!"

Jin Chuan was kicked out, which seemed to be her only problem, but her family would inevitably be affected as well.

Their family was all given as dowry by Lady Wang, and their honor and disgrace all depended on Lady Wang's decision. How could she have the time to care about Jin Chuan's feelings?

Faced with Old Lady Bai's questioning, Jin Chuan was speechless. Originally, she could at least be promoted to a concubine.

Suddenly, it went to the other extreme, and she was a little confused for a moment.

Seeing this, Yuchuan hurriedly said, "I was outside before and saw Baoyu escape from the inner room. Could it be related to Baoyu?"

Old Lady Bai exclaimed, "How could that be? Didn't you say that Madam intended to marry you to Baoyu? Could it be that you offended him and that's why Madam drove you out?"

For the Bai family, Mrs. Wang's plan to give it to Baoyu was a good thing, and Jin Chuan did not hide it from her family.

But Jia Zheng passed the message through Aunt Zhao, but because the time was short and she didn't know where to start, she never told her family.

When asked by Old Lady Bai, she no longer concealed the truth and told the whole story in a halting manner.

"Since the master has asked Aunt Zhao to pass on the message, I can't pretend that I didn't hear it. Baoyu was also... I didn't expect that the lady was not asleep..."

"This..." Old Lady Bai's body softened and she slumped down in the chair.

If she had only offended Jia Baoyu, even if Mrs. Wang was angry, it would only be temporary, and it was only a problem of Jin Chuan's personal words and deeds. At the very least, Jin Chuan would be driven out of the house and would have no chance to be with Baoyu.

As long as Mrs. Wang still trusts the Bai family, the worst that can happen is that she keeps her at home.

But it was obvious that Mrs. Wang was suspicious because she mentioned Aunt Zhao, and the Bai family might also be suspected.

Bai Laonian and Jinchuan were able to think of this, but Yuchuan did not think as deeply as them.

"As for the current plan, begging the master may only add fuel to the fire. If it weren't for Baoyu, my sister wouldn't have suffered this disaster. Madam has always loved Baoyu the most. As long as he is willing to ask for mercy for my sister, Madam will definitely give her a lighter sentence."

As she spoke, she turned around and said, "Don't worry, sister. I will go find Baoyu right away."

Old Lady Bai took a deep breath and warned, "Remember not to blame him. Beg him kindly. Even if he refuses to agree, don't contradict him..."

Jin Chuan seemed to want to say something, but in the end she didn't open her mouth.

Although judging from Jia Baoyu's behavior at the time, it was unlikely that he would be willing to beg for mercy, and Mrs. Wang might not necessarily pay attention to him, she still had some hope in her heart.

After Yuchuan left, the mother and daughter looked at each other in silence for a moment.

Jin Chuanfang looked determined and said firmly: "My daughter knows that it was she who caused the trouble. Even if Madam really refuses to forgive me, the worst that can happen is that I can prove my innocence and will never implicate the family!"

Just now, the two of them did not stop Yuchuan from asking Baoyu for help, because there were some things they did not want to say in front of her.

As for how to prove her innocence, Jin Chuan did not say.

However, Old Lady Bai seemed to understand the meaning of her words, and tears flowed unconsciously.

The Wang family is not as kind to their servants as the Jia family, and this can be seen from the way Wang Xifeng manages the household.

Once you are considered a traitor, not only will you lose the chance of getting a good job in the future, but even the livelihood of your entire family may be in jeopardy.

In this era, there were many people who had to eat their own children when disaster struck. For Old Lady Bai, being able to keep her family intact and losing a daughter was a blessing.

The mother and daughter were shedding tears on the spot when Zhou Rui and Zhou Rui's family walked in with a fake smile.

Old Lady Bai quickly wiped her face, forced a bitter smile, and walked forward.

"Butler Zhou! Please come in and take a seat. What does the Madam want?"

She made tea and asked them to sit down, saying, "This child is ignorant. I'll have to trouble you two to help him and his wife..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Rui raised his hand to interrupt him, saying, "You are also an old man who came with the Madam as a dowry. There are some things I shouldn't remind you of. Aunt Zhao threw dirty water on Madam like that a few years ago. How dare you get involved with her?"

He remained calm and attributed Jin Chuan's words to the Bai family.

Old Lady Bai didn't dare to admit it, and quickly explained: "Butler Zhou, please understand! We are loyal to the Madam and have no second thoughts. This child just spoke without thinking. Please consider the friendship between us for generations..."

"Don't worry!" Zhou Rui interrupted again, "Someone dared to even behead someone, not to mention being a traitor? Is he just being careless or speaking his mind? I'm not a worm in your stomach, how can I tell?"

After he finished speaking, Zhou Ruijia looked at Jinchuan and said, "I am here just to ask you a question on behalf of my wife. Why did you urge my brother to go to the East Courtyard? What is your intention?"

Jin Chuan fell to her knees with a thump.

With her snow-white neck held high, she said stubbornly, "Please tell Madam that Jin Chuan just wanted to get Master Bao out of the way, and she has no other intentions!"

She knew very well that if she continued to bring up Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang would only become more suspicious, so she insisted that she just wanted to get rid of Jia Baoyu's entanglement.

"How dare you bring me up!" Zhou Ruijia said coldly, "Madam originally wanted to give you to Baoyu, don't you know? Even if there was something wrong with me, why did you have to send him away?"

"I know! But my wife was there at the time..."

At this point, Jin Chuan paused and said in a loud voice: "Please trouble Uncle Zhou and Auntie to report to Madam. I know that I have spoken without restraint. If Madam still does not trust me, I will prove to Madam that I have no second thoughts!"

"Okay!" Zhou Rui clapped his hands on the chair and stood up abruptly, "For the sake of our friendship over several lifetimes, I will tell my wife about this. You guys take care of yourselves!"

He naturally understood the meaning of Jin Chuan's words. Since Jin Chuan had the courage, Mrs. Wang would surely not pursue the Bai family.

Before, they had been impartial and impartial in their attitude, but now, they didn't mind doing a favor for someone.

The two of them left in a huff and ran into Yuchuan who had returned.

She bowed slightly to the two of them, walked quickly into the house, and said anxiously, "But the madam has changed her mind and asked Butler Zhou to come over..."

Halfway through his words, Fang saw the expressions of Bai Laonian and Jin Chuan, and his voice stopped abruptly.

Mrs. Bai wiped the tears from her face and asked quickly, "What did Baoyu say?"

"This……"

Yuchuan, who was already stunned on the spot, froze even more when she heard the words.

"Baoyu...Baoyu..."

Under the questioning of Old Lady Bai, she hesitated for a long time before she explained the matter clearly.

At first, when Jia Baoyu heard that Jin Chuan was driven away, he volunteered to go and plead for her before Jin Chuan even opened her mouth.

But when he arrived in front of Lady Wang's Rong Xi Hall, he hesitated.

When he heard the sound of Mrs. Wang throwing things inside, he ran away without even remembering the promise he made at the beginning.

Hearing this, Old Lady Bai felt dizzy and collapsed to the ground.

Jin Chuan moved her knees, faced Old Lady Bai, kowtowed three times solemnly, then stood up and went back to the house without saying a word.
