The Red Mansion Big Liar

However, it was no longer judged by status, but by Zhang Yun逸’s attitude.

After all, she only interacted with people from the two mansions. To use a saying from her previous life: no matter how high or low your status is, it is nothing in front of Master Yi.

His attitude towards Mrs. Wang was, on the one hand, because he realized that Zhang Yun逸 did not respect her, and on the other hand, it was also because of the old grudges from before.

Zhang Yunyi took good care of the girls in the Grand View Garden, as can be seen from the arrangement of the small kitchen, and there was no grudge between them.

Zhang Yunyi always treated all the girls in Rongfu equally, except for Lin Daiyu, for whom he not only asked for doctors and medicine, but also gave her double the amount of fruit.

In addition, since she and Xiangling are half-teacher, she would naturally be more respectful to her.

If Lin Daiyu had not had the conversation with Zijuan yesterday, she might have still been deceiving herself with the friendship of the previous generation.

But now, after hearing Jinchuan's words, she couldn't help but secretly glance at Zijuan.

Just in time to meet her meaningful gaze, Lin Daiyu quickly covered up and said, "Thank you, Brother Yi, for asking him to take the trouble!"

Because they didn't know that Jin Chuan had acted on her own and smuggled a lot of private goods, they just thought that this was Zhang Yun逸's special instruction.

He couldn't help but think of his past willfulness and some bad rumors in the mansion.

Thinking of this, although she felt relieved, she couldn't be happy and pouted unconsciously.

Jin Chuan didn't see what she was thinking, but showed her courtesy again, saying with a smile: "Actually, these dressing mirrors are all of the same style, and Master specially ordered them to be sent back home, so they are all carefully selected. But Master still specifically instructed that the girl should choose first."

This undoubtedly confirmed Lin Daiyu's guess. She pursed her lips and said resentfully, "Could it be that in Brother Yi's eyes, I am just an unreasonable person?"

Zijuan secretly thought that something was wrong and blurted out: "Girl!~"

"This..." Jin Chuan was stunned.

Lin Daiyu said in a deep voice: "I have the right and wrong to judge whether it was intentional or not. I have always remembered Brother Yi's kindness. Now that you have arranged it like this, it seems that I don't know what is good for me."

Jin Chuan knew that she had done something bad with good intentions, but it was difficult to change her words, so she had to bite the bullet and explain: "How could the master misunderstand the girl? The master often said that there are no two identical leaves in the world. Although this mirror is made in the same style, there are still some differences in the subtle details..."

With the previous experience, she did not dare to drag it onto Zhang Yunyi again, and said instead: "Young lady and auntie have a semi-teacher relationship, so it is only natural for me to send him to you first."

Hearing this, Zijuan quickly tried to smooth things over: "Yes! When it comes to our place, there is no more than other places. In the past, the young lady has never refused. Why are you being so hypocritical today?"

She understood Lin Daiyu's thoughts better than Jin Chuan, and knew that Lin Daiyu was too sensitive. She was worried that Zhang Yunyi would believe the rumors outside and misunderstand that she was a petty person.

Jinchuan looked at Zijuan with some surprise.

At the beginning of last winter, she moved to the hot spring villa with Zhang Yunyi, and it has been less than a month since she returned.

It was the end of the year and Youshi was not at Ningguo Mansion. Most of the chores in the backyard fell on her, so she had no chance to come and visit.

Unexpectedly, within a few months, Zijuan's attitude changed 180 degrees.

Lin Daiyu hesitated for a moment, but finally covered the bundle on the table and said, "The pearl hairpin I bought last time was of the same style. Since we have a precedent, it is better to distribute it according to age. Let's send it to the eldest sister first!"

What Lin Daiyu said was true. Seeing her firm attitude, Jin Chuan had no choice but to pick up her bag and leave.

Seeing this, Zijuan hurriedly said, "I'll go see Sister Jinchuan off."

After saying this, without waiting for Lin Daiyu's consent, he chased Jin Chuan out the door.

After leaving Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Zijuan apologized and explained, "Don't blame me, Sister Jinchuan. I didn't mean anything else. But you know, there are always people who make up stories about me being petty... I'm also worried that Master Yi will misunderstand me."

Upon hearing this, Jin Chuan stopped and looked at Zi Juan with interest, smiling and saying, "Why? Have you figured it out?"

Zijuan didn't expect her to be so straightforward, and quickly lowered her head and said, "I was blind before, and I was just trying to take advantage of the situation. Please don't blame me, and please say a few good words for me in front of Master Yi."

As she spoke, she grabbed the bag in Jinchuan's hand, took out a mirror from it, and said with an awkward smile: "Miss is also worried that Master will misunderstand, but she cannot let Master down, and it will save me from having to make another trip."

Jin Chuan was also unclear whether it was Zijuan's own idea or Lin Daiyu's words were not true.

So he went with the flow, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell you what you said."

"Hey! Hey! Sorry to bother you, sister."

Zijuan watched Jinchuan leave before turning back.

Lin Daiyu saw the dressing mirror in Zijuan's hand and said unhappily, "I've been talking for a long time, why did you take it back?"

"Miss!" Zijuan complained, "You are just worried that Master Yi will misunderstand you. Now that you have done what you should do, why do you have to push Master Yi's kindness away and let him down?"

Lin Daiyu shuddered slightly and shouted, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by push or not push!"

Although her words were sharp, she no longer blamed Zijuan for making decisions on her own.

Zijuan saw this and said with a smile, "Young lady, why do you have to deceive yourself? I have been serving you for so long, but if I can't even see this, then I have followed you for so many years in vain."

Seeing that she remained silent, Zijuan spoke freely, "Miss is just worried because of the old lady's attitude and wants to test Master Yi's attitude. In my opinion, Miss is really worrying too much. Since Master Yi has given this special order, isn't he just expressing his feelings to Miss?"

"Who... who tested him..."

Although Lin Daiyu denied it flatly, it was obvious that she was not being sincere.

Zijuan had indeed hit the nail on the head. Although Zhang Yunyi was different from Jia Baoyu, wasn't the current situation also another form of a perfect match?

Chapter 391 Longing

Inside the Daguan Tower.

Baoqin looked at her young lady who was in a daze, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help reminding her: "Didn't Master Yi tell her yesterday that there were any arrangements? Young lady, don't forget that if it is inconvenient for you to go out and give instructions, you can ask me to go to Hanfang Pavilion to pass on the message."

With Lady Jia's advice, Baoqin originally thought that Zhang Yunyi's words last night were just an excuse.

Unexpectedly, they really came to install it today. While I believed it to be true, I was also worried that Yuanchun would forget Zhang Yunyi's arrangement.

She thought so, and so did Yuanchun.

However, as soon as she entered Hanfang Pavilion last night, her ability to speak was completely blocked and she could only breathe.

Although Zhang Yunyi's mouth was always busy, he was only concerned with... never saying a word. Then he felt that he had disturbed his interest and left in a huff. When did he mention this?

Thinking of this, her cheeks flushed and felt hot.

Zhang Yunyi forgot for a moment that she still had time to give instructions to the craftsmen who were installing it, but how could she face Baoqin's questions?

Just when he didn't know what to do, he saw Jin Chuan walk in from outside the hall and said, "The eldest lady is here!"

Yuanchun suddenly felt relieved and quickly stood up and said, "I'm here!"

While she was greeting Jinchuan, she said to Baoqin, "Go and make a cup of tea."

After Baoqin left, Fang asked, "But what does Brother Yi have to say that he wants you to bring over?"

She didn't know what happened last night, but Yuanchun was confused when so many mirrors were suddenly sent to her today.

So she smiled and said, "Master didn't ask me to bring any message, but he asked me to bring something."

As he spoke, he took out a mirror from his bag and handed it to her, saying, "These dressing mirrors are all of the same model, and they were selected by you personally. Although you have a whole room here, it is for rehearsals, so how can there be no dressing table in the room?"

Jin Chuan has mastered the art of speaking. She never mentioned the fact that she came from Lin Daiyu, but instead talked about Hanfang Pavilion.

Yuanchun looked at the antique, bright glass mirror, and a warm current surged from her heart and spread all the way to her limbs.

She secretly thought that Zhang Yunyi was very thoughtful, and said indirectly: "Brother Yi is very thoughtful. Shouldn't Hanfang Pavilion have been informed of this?"

Jin Chuan thought she was worried and smiled, "Of course! Don't worry, young lady, these are all craftsmen from the inner palace. The master has already given them many instructions, so nothing will go wrong."

Yuanchun couldn't help but feel relieved, and thought to herself, could it be that what I didn't have time to talk about last night was the matter of the dressing mirror?

Seeing Baoqin coming in with tea, she nodded and said, "That's good! You've worked hard too, have a cup of tea!"

Although we went to many places along the way, we drank enough at Xue's house and Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

It was inconvenient to refuse, so he took it and took a sip, saying, "I have somewhere else to go, so I won't bother you, young lady."

If Lin Daiyu had not mentioned to send Yuanchun away first, Jin Chuan would not have planned to come to her first.

After all, Yuanchun is Lady Wang's daughter and Jia Baoyu's biological sister, so it is inevitable that she hates the whole family as well.

Although I understood more or less what Grandmother Jia meant from Yuchuan's words.

But Zhang Yunyi never expressed his attitude, and did not behave differently towards Yuanchun, which gave her a certain degree of autonomy.

He might as well just ignore the rumors and deal with them, but he was unwilling to flatter Yuanchun.

When Yuanchun heard that she had to go somewhere else, she didn't want to stay for long, so she ordered, "Baoqin, help me send Jinchuan off!"

After leaving the main hall of Daguan Tower, she glanced in the direction of Tuobi Villa, hesitated for a moment, then turned and rushed towards Zilingzhou.

There was a lot of buzz in Rongguo Mansion about Xiangyun being a concubine. Although Zhang Yunyi knew about it, he did not spread it around.

Jinchuan heard it from Yuchuan just now.

Although they were both concubines, one gave special instructions and the other did not, so Jin Chuan naturally had a preference.

She did not mention that she rushed to Zilingzhou, but said that Baoqin sent the person downstairs and returned to Daguan Tower.

Seeing Yuanchun holding the mirror in a daze, he smiled and said, "Master Yi is really thoughtful. He felt that all the mirrors in this room were not enough, so he specially prepared a dressing mirror... Miss, don't forget it."

Hearing her bring up the past, Yuanchun said quickly, "You also said that Brother Yi is very careful. How could I know about the work of the craftsmen? Why do you want me to give you instructions? You just told me and prepared this."

Although there is no way to judge, it is just right to cover up.

She was so busy explaining that she ignored how long she had stayed in Hanfang Pavilion.

Zhang Yun逸 stayed for about two quarters of an hour, but after he left, Yuanchun took just as long to tidy up her mood and messy clothes as she did when he was there.

It was late at night, a man and a woman were alone in a room, how could Baoqin not be secretly speculating?

The doubts that had been put aside when the mirror was delivered were raised again.

She looked from top to bottom at Yuanchun, thinking to herself, could it be that the young lady has already...

……

"Miss, you have done such shameful things, why are you hesitating now?"

In the Zhuijin Building, Siqi said angrily, "I just went to ask for confirmation from Master, what's wrong with that? The old lady and Master don't have Miss in their hearts. I heard everything Master said before. Now even Miss Shi has heard the rumors. Can't we go and ask? If Miss is worried that Master will be unhappy, just blame me!"

"Keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear you!"

Although she tried her best to persuade him, Yingchun remained unmoved and said, "You also said that this was probably forced by the old lady. Besides... besides, it's not just me that he didn't see me. Since the eldest sister came back, he has not entered the garden again except because he couldn't be pushed away. If I go and ask about it now, won't it make Brother Yi feel annoyed?"

"It would be fine if you said that in the past, but didn't you see the glass mirrors that were just delivered? Are you going to bury your head in the sand?"

"Isn't this for the Longevity Festival?"

The master and servant were arguing when they heard Xiu Ju's voice from outside: "Miss! Sister Jin Chuan is here!"

"Please come in!" Yingchun glared at Siqi and ordered quickly.

"Miss!" Jin Chuan came in, bowed, and said with a smile, "The master specifically told me to tell you that your birthday is coming up in a few days. He has already made arrangements. He will take you to the mansion and celebrate your birthday alone!"

Yingchun cried with joy upon hearing this, and asked in a trembling voice, "Really?"

Jin Chuan swore, "How could it be false? Master has also put a lot of effort into it. He has to take care of the young lady's reputation, so it is inconvenient to take the young lady over openly. He has to use the excuse of the eldest master. Master has really put a lot of effort into it!"

Zhang Yun逸 did not give any special instructions to others, but it was Zhang Yun逸 who taught Yingchun the trick in person.

Yingchun knew Jia She's character very well. Although he said that he was putting in a lot of effort, it was likely that he also spent a lot of money.

This was exactly Zhang Yunyi's purpose. He deliberately concealed the truth so that Yingchun would misunderstand that he had not only taken great pains but also paid a considerable price to celebrate her birthday.

Upon hearing this, Yingchun not only felt that all the grievances she had suffered before were worth it and that she had not entrusted her trust to the wrong person, but she also turned her inner depression into strong spring love and looked forward to her upcoming birthday.

Jia She's image has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts, not only Yingchun, but even Siqi is no exception.

In her heart, she silently slapped herself twice, thinking to herself that Master Yi was a kind and righteous man, and she had wronged him.

Chapter 392: Making Trouble (Part )

After leaving Zilingzhou, Jinchuan headed north and delivered the dressing mirrors to everyone.

Tanchun is a daughter who relies on her mother's status, and she is well aware of Aunt Zhao's ability to seduce people.

However, Xichun is a legitimate cousin, and the relationship between Li Wan and Zhang Yun逸 is self-evident.

This way you don't have to take a detour and there are no problems to complain about.

However, he was entangled in the order of whether Xue Baochai or Shi Xiangyun should go, but in the end, due to the closeness of the relationship, he went to Tuobi Villa first.
