The Red Mansion Big Liar

The reason why she wanted Lin Daiyu to marry Jia Baoyu was simply to ensure that she could stay with Lin Daiyu.

Mrs. Wang's words undoubtedly gave her an early verdict.

No matter what Lin Daiyu's final fate was, she would not be able to follow in the dowry, and it was even unclear whether she could keep her life.

What Mrs. Wang said was right. Even if she might not be able to decide Lin Daiyu's marriage, she could easily decide the fate of a maid.

When she thought of this, she felt completely hopeless.

She didn't even hear Mrs. Wang yelling at her to get out. It was not until she was carried out of Rong Xi Tang by Caixia and Caiyun that she came to her senses.

Like a walking corpse, he walked towards Xiaoxiang Pavilion in a daze.

She didn't think that it was Aunt Xue who complained, but instead she had a preconceived notion that it was Jin Chuan or Zhang Yunyi's fault.

She had seen some clues from it before, and now her guess is undoubtedly more certain.

If Zhang Yun逸 had no intention of marrying Lin Daiyu, how could he be dissatisfied with her little actions?

Thinking of this, an idea flashed through her mind, and she leaned against the wall of the back building of Rong Xi Tang, lost in thought.

Yuanchun's marriage fell through and rumors spread throughout the mansion.

But to sum up, there are only two points.

First, the Rongguo Mansion has shown signs of decline and no longer has its former glory.

Secondly, Zhang Yun逸 was very powerful and could turn the tide. When Yuanchun lost the chance of marrying into the royal palace, he was also able to help Jia Zheng get a promotion.

If you offend the master of the mansion, you may be forgotten after a long time.

But judging from the current situation, it is obvious that the Rongguo Mansion wants to cling to him, and even if it is just to please him, they will punish him severely.

The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. The only way now is to atone for the sin by doing good deeds.

As soon as the thought of escape came to my mind, I suddenly felt the world was wide.

She just felt that her eyes suddenly opened up.

If he could make up for his sin by helping Zhang Yun逸 accomplish this good thing, not only would Lady Jia and Mrs. Wang not blame him, but it might not be impossible for him to follow Lin Daiyu and marry into the East Palace.

After all, with the examples of Jin Chuan, Liu Wu'er, the little actor, and even Aunt Zhao, as far as Zhang Yunyi was concerned, given the current situation in the Rongguo Mansion, would anyone refuse his face?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, she not only rekindled her hope, but also began to stand in the perspective of Lin Daiyu and herself, and considered the various advantages of Zhang Yunyi.

At a young age, she held a high position and was deeply trusted by the emperor. Not only did she take great care of Lin Daiyu, she was also very doting on the concubines and maids in the mansion.

This is in stark contrast to Jia Baoyu, a dandy who is greedy for pleasure, only knows how to hide in Grandmother Jia's arms, and has no ambition at all.

She took a deep breath, no longer thrown out of the decadence of Rong Xi Tang, and walked towards Xiaoxiang Pavilion with firm steps.

……

Inside Mengpozhai, Zhang Yunyi held Aunt Zhao's hair tightly, took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice: "Can she tell you why she asked me to meet her?"

Aunt Zhao swallowed a few times before raising her head, her eyes tearing up as she muttered, "This... this I don't know. This girl is very scheming and even refused to say a word to me. However, from what she said, it's probably the same reason."

"Hmm!" Zhang Yunyi snorted.

He was not completely clueless about Tanchun's purpose in making the meeting.

Before Yuanchun returned home, Grandmother Jia couldn't wait to arrange for her to live in the Grand View Tower and set the rehearsal location there. How could Zhang Yun逸 not see her intention?

There is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, and Yuanchun has been raised by Lady Jia since she was a child. If sacrificing Yingchun can help Yuanchun, there will probably be no hesitation.

The reason why Tanchun was so anxious to make an appointment with me was probably because she had seen through Lady Jia's intention. Seeing that I did not refuse Lady Jia's arrangement, she was worried that Yuanchun would snatch her away.

However, Tanchun probably didn't expect that although he didn't intend to let Yuanchun go, he didn't want to act according to Grandmother Jia's ideas.

Although Yuanchun's marriage with Prince Ning fell through, they were engaged after all.

Moreover, the construction of the Grand View Garden was also his work.

Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. If Yuanchun were to be married, there is no guarantee that the emperor would not have second thoughts.

The reason why he went with the flow was simply to conceal the truth, secretly attack Chencang, and use the same tactics on Yuanchun that he used on Yingchun.

Unexpectedly, the accidental planting of willows led to a forest of willows, but the pulling out of radishes also brought out mud, which made Tanchun unable to hold back and jumped out impatiently.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a little smug.

Only two years after traveling through time, she had become a favorite in Jinchai's eyes, and the young ladies in Rongguo Mansion were obsessed with her.

They even go so far as to stage a sisterly feud over a husband.

Although Tanchun is not as easy to fool as Yingchun, she is strong when she has no desires. Since she has something to ask for, things will be much easier to handle.

It just requires a little more thought.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand at Aunt Zhao who was still busy downstairs, and urged her, "That's enough! Now that you've cleaned it up, you can go back first! I have to go to Lian Er's place to drink tonight, so I need to catch up on some sleep!"

"Tsk! Tsk!~" Aunt Zhao then raised her head, licked the corner of her lips, covered herself with the quilt, and climbed off the bed backwards like a dog.

"Oh, right!" Zhang Yunyi called out, "Go tell Third Sister that we'll see you tomorrow night!"

Chapter 334 Don’t blame your brother for being rude

Ping'er pushed Zhang Yunyi's restless hand away with difficulty, broke free from the chair, straightened her clothes, glanced at the sky outside the window, and urged: "Master, if you don't go over, grandma will be waiting anxiously!"

The days are short in winter, and it gets dark before the You hour.

Zhang Yunyi said shamelessly: "She will be in trouble at night. Isn't it because she is afraid of ignoring you?"

Ping'er blushed and said shyly, "I am content that you have me in your heart. Madam has long been looking forward to having a child."

Zhang Yunyi smacked his lips, pinched Ping'er's waist, and then said slowly, "Has she dealt with all the mess outside?"

"Grandpa has said so much, grandma, do you dare to touch this bad luck? Besides, we don't need that little money now."

Zhang Yunyi looked at Ping'er and said with a half-smile, "With her greed for money, if I don't force her, she won't be willing to spit out the meat in her mouth, even if it's just a mosquito leg, right?"

As he spoke, he stood up, pulled Ping'er into his arms, looked at her affectionately and said, "You have to keep a close eye on her for me in the future."

Ping'er didn't struggle this time, and nodded slightly: "Master... Don't worry, I will do it for you... Yeah!~"

Before he could finish his words, his mouth was sealed by Zhang Yunyi, and he let out a soft moan instead.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

Ping'er leaned over to smooth out the wrinkles on her body, panting and saying, "Master! If you delay any longer, grandma will get really anxious!"

Zhang Yunyi laughed, patted her on the buttocks, took a step forward and said with a smile: "Let's go!"

"Wait!" Ping'er called out quickly.

Zhang Yunyi turned his head in confusion, only to see her take out an embroidered handkerchief from her bosom, grab a corner of it, put it to her mouth, and wipe it carefully.

"Heh!" Zhang Yunyi said with a wicked smile, "Little hoof, you said no, but is your body honest? Did you put on rouge on purpose when you came?"

Ping'er's fingertips trembled, her eyes dodged, and she said, "Master is making fun of me again."

Zhang Yunyi put his arms around Ping'er's back and reached down with his big hands restlessly.

Ping Er was feeling unwell and said shyly, "Grandma is still waiting. Didn't the master say that he would not come back until he was drunk tonight?"

Seeing Ping'er's reluctant look, Zhang Yunyi laughed out loud, grabbed another handful, and then let go, saying with a smile: "Then wait until tonight, and then I'll feed you, this insincere little hoof!"

After Ping'er wiped the rouge off her lips, Zhang Yunyi did not delay any longer.

When they arrived at Wang Xifeng's courtyard, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng were already waiting there.

Zhang Yunyi bowed and said, "Second Brother Lian, I've been waiting for a long time!"

"Brother Yi! Please come in!"

With the experience from last time, Jia Lian was much more natural. While greeting Zhang Yunyi, he shouted to the servants in the courtyard: "Ping'er will serve you here, all of you go back to your rooms!"

Wang Xifeng squinted at Ping'er and sneered, "I knew you, a little slut, would not come so soon if I asked you to invite them!"

Ping Er was not afraid of her and said with a smile, "Madam, you are right. If you go to invite them yourself, I am afraid you will have to wait!"

"Hey! You little slut! You know the person behind you is coming, so you dare to argue with me. Wait until he leaves, and watch your skin!"

Speaking of the person behind her, Ping'er's face turned red before she did. She quickly changed the subject and said, "Come with me!"

The two followed Zhang Yunyi's footsteps into the side hall.

The fire had already been lit in the side hall, and it was as warm as spring. Zhang Yunyi shook off his bearskin cloak, and Ping'er hurried forward to help him take it off and hung it on the hanger.

After they sat down, Jia Lian apologized first: "The master has always loved collecting small things. Last time, I accidentally let him see the fan that Brother Yi gave me. He insisted on asking me for it. I had no choice but to sell my brother."

"It's nothing! It's just a toy. He likes to give one away!"

"Brother Yi is still righteous!"

"Brother Lian, you're too polite!"

Now, the couple each got what they wanted, and since they were still thinking about asking Jia Lian to give their child a name, their relationship had eased a lot.

Therefore, unlike the last time, this time he sat upright and did not get close to Zhang Yun逸 in front of Jia Lian.

Sitting next to Zhang Yunyi, Wang Xifeng kindly reminded him, "Master, how can you be content? Yunyi, don't be too casual with your gifts, or you'll be remembered!"

Zhang Yunyi pulled Ping'er to the other side and sat down, saying calmly, "It's okay! I'm a soft-hearted person, and you should know that. If he has any intention of forcing me, I won't be so easy to talk to!"

"That's right, that's right!" Jia Lian quickly agreed, "If Yun Yi hadn't intervened, and the eldest girl had gotten into such trouble, my family would have become a laughing stock in the capital."

Having been in charge of the general affairs of the Rongguo Mansion for a long time, Jia Lian was quite clear-headed and his words were full of flattery.

The three of them clinked glasses and Ping'er buried her head in eating a few bites, occasionally helping to pour the wine, and they seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Wang Xifeng could no longer sit still. She flirted with Zhang Yunyi and reached her hand under the table, secretly reaching towards him, indicating that he was almost done.

Zhang Yunyi tasted the wine from Wang Xifeng's bare hands and gradually could not hold back any longer. He raised his wine glass and said to Jia Lian, "Brother, I am a little drunk. It is getting late. I am afraid I will have to bother Second Brother Lian tonight!"

"Don't bother me, don't bother me!" Jia Lian's eyes flashed with eagerness, and he said quickly, "Brother, you came at the right time..."

At this point, he hesitated and said, "To be honest, my illness has relapsed. I originally planned to endure it for a while and wait for you to come back from the farm, then ask you to treat it... Please help me again..."

His words seemed to be honest, but his evasive eyes showed that he was obviously not being honest.

Wang Xifeng was immediately furious. She stood up angrily and spat, "Bah! You shameless thing, you did that without telling me, and I didn't scold you. How dare you still have the nerve to look at me now..."

It was okay for her to put on an act in front of Jia Lian and disgust him, but when it came to the real thing, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Jia Lian was indeed complaining without any reason, but this cuckold was actually addicted to it. Whenever he thought of what he saw and heard outside the window of the back corridor and the side hall, he always felt that he had not yet satisfied.

Last time, he was sent back by Zhang Yun逸 on the grounds that he had recovered from his illness. This time, in order to avoid repeating the same mistake, he simply took the initiative and spoke first, claiming that his illness had recurred.

His secrets were touched upon and he could not hide his embarrassment for a moment. However, he did not run away. Instead, he looked at Zhang Yunyi eagerly.

Zhang Yunyi was also stunned by his request.

However, just thinking about the drama that was happening right now was exciting, and he pushed Ping'er calmly.

Ping Er pouted, shook her head helplessly, stood up and said, "I...I'll go guard outside!"

Wang Xifeng was horrified and said, "You wouldn't..."

"Hey!" Zhang Yunyi raised his hand to interrupt, and said to Jia Lian, "Treatment is not a problem, but we have to make it clear that if sister-in-law is pregnant, Brother Lian will have to help put her name on the list. Also, let's make it clear! Brother Lian can only watch but not do anything!"

When he said this, Wang Xifeng suddenly froze.

Jia Lian, who was standing by, showed a delighted expression on his face and kept saying, "Of course! Of course!"

As if he was worried that Zhang Yunyi was worried, he stood up from the stool and retreated to a corner while speaking.

Zhang Yunyi stood up suddenly, walked around behind Wang Xifeng, and pushed her, who was still in a daze, onto the table, saying with a smile: "Then Brother Lian, please watch out, don't blame me for being rude!"

Chapter 335 Hidden dangers

"Bah!~ Did you team up with him on purpose to humiliate me?"

Zhang Yunyi said confidently, "Sister-in-law, you are really wronging me. Before, I always did enough foreplay and drove him away, not letting him look at me for more than a second. If sister-in-law is willing to divorce him, there is no need for me to be perfunctory with him."

"Stop it! I won't be your concubine! Besides, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, and a secret lover is not as good as not being able to have one! You men are all the same. You try every possible means before you get the upper hand, but now you team up with him to make fun of me. If I really go to the East Palace, I'm afraid I'll get tired of it in two years."
