The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 489 Luanqu [[-]]

After about an hour...

Jiao Shun stood on the bluestone path a hundred steps away, sighed and looked back with mixed feelings, looking at the Jade Emperor Temple hidden among the mountains.

Fortunately, when I came here, I was still full of expectations, and I could take down Aunt Xue in one fell swoop. Who would have thought that I fell into such a trap of tigers and wolves, and was caught in two "handles" of body and mind, so that I couldn't escape, and I was eventually caught in the tiger's mouth.

But if you want to say how angry and unwilling he is, that's not true.

Although Mrs. Wang has more disadvantages than Aunt Xue, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is an old lady, and her charm is still there. Besides, she is the second most honorable woman in the Rongguo Mansion, and she is the second most honored woman in the Rongguo Mansion. The birth mother of the imperial concubine, the excitement brought by her status alone is worth the fare.

The issue is……

He, Jiao, hunted geese all day long, but today he was pecked in the eyes by geese!
hmm~
It was indeed pecking at the 'eye'.

How to say this feeling, it is probably a variant branch of "pain and happiness": shame and happiness.

No, the pain is still there, and it has been hurting until now.

Subconsciously, Jiao Shun touched his back with his backhand, and immediately felt a hot tingling pain from his shoulder blades, three percent of which was scratched by Mrs. Wang, and another seventy percent was the masterpiece of dead branches and bark in the woodshed.

After all, this time was a hasty challenge, and he didn't bring all the jungle equipment.

Although he relied on his rich experience to spread the two people's coats backwards on the ground in time, the shock absorption effect of the silk material, which is known for its lightness and breathability, can only be said to be better than nothing.

In addition, the firewood room has been cleaned for a long time, and dead branches and debris are scattered everywhere...

ok~
These are all minor details, but the most important reason is that Mrs. Wang has awakened the attributes of a knight, causing Jiao Shun to lie flat as a meat pad most of the time.

Say it~
I seem to have seen a series before, what is called the beautiful X knight...

After a while of thoughts flying wildly, Jiao Shun looked away, then turned up his collar, and walked in the direction of Ou Xiangxie.

By the time we arrived at the Lotus Root Champs Pavilion, the remnants of the seats had already been evacuated, and everyone was lining up with the old lady as the center, enjoying singing and dancing.

During the banquet, most of the men and women were absent, not to mention Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue. Jia Zhen and Jia Lian also disappeared long ago.

Not even Xue Biao was at the banquet, only Xue Pan pulled Jia Rong and Jia Qiang to persuade them to drink.

As for Baoyu...

As expected, he ran to the female guests' banquet.

Jiao Shun's eyes fixed on Baoyu for a moment, secretly feeling guilty and complacent - from now on, he can already call himself the 'general father' of the younger generation in this mansion without any guilt.

Probably sensing Jiao Shun's gaze, Baoyu turned her head and raised her glass with a smile.

Jiao Shun also nodded to him, his eyes and face were full of kindness, and even the itching and pain on his back were relieved a lot.

Go around the dance floor in the middle and go to the chief room for the male guests.

He cupped his hands at everyone and asked with a smile, "I was planning to go home and take a nap, but I overslept when I didn't—I don't know if I missed any good programs?"

Xue Pan was about to answer, but Jia Huan suddenly rushed over, pulled Jiao Shun's sleeve and begged with bright eyes, "Brother Jiao, let's play cards!"

As he said that, he held up the genuine card set like offering a treasure in front of Jiao Shun.

Seeing his appearance, he was probably rejected by others before, Jiao Shun just got the hidden title of 'Always Calling Father', and it was the time when his love was overflowing, so he followed him and said: "Then let's play two games."

Now that Jia Zhen and Jia Lian are not here, he is already respected at the table, so naturally no one objects to this statement.

So everyone set up a table in the corner to 'fight'.

The girls on the other side were not to be outdone, not only imitated the table, but also dragged the old lady off the stage in person. For a while, the whole hall was full of shouts of 'kill', and the singing and dancing just now was no longer peaceful.

Only Wang Xifeng saw that Jiao Shun had gone and returned, and he thought about the business of dealing with King Zhongshun, so he took the opportunity to quietly ask the old lady for leave, and went to find Mrs. Wang to preside over the overall situation.

Qingtang hut.

Mrs. Wang changed into clean clothes, and sat lazily in front of the dressing table. Looking at the face in the mirror that hadn't retreated from the spring, she couldn't help but secretly sighed. do not!
Thinking of the madness in the Jade Emperor Temple earlier, the blush on her face spread to the base of her ears.

In fact, in the beginning, she only did it because of the pain in her back...

Unexpectedly, it got out of hand.

The feeling of being in control of everything from a high position really fascinated Mrs. Wang, who has been following the rules for half her life, and recently suddenly pursued freedom and excitement.

Subconsciously, she raised her hand to caress the corners of her eyes. She didn't know whether it was a hallucination, or the immediate effect of clearing up her body and mind. She actually felt that the fine lines at the corners of her eyes had disappeared.

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a report from outside that Sister Feng had arrived.

Madam Wang suddenly remembered that besides venting, she originally asked Jiao Shun to help him deal with King Zhongshun, but in the end she completely forgot about it.

But it's no wonder that she lost all three souls and seven souls at that time, who could care about others?
Fortunately, there is still time to make up for it afterwards.

Facing the mirror, she covered the strange redness on her face with powder, and then Madam Wang got up and went to the outer hall.

The aunt and nephew exchanged a few words, and Wang Xifeng hurriedly urged: "Ma'am, didn't we discuss it earlier, do we want to talk to Brother Shun today? The old lady is urging me, can't you?" It’s better to delay any longer.”

The old lady pressed her, and it was clear that she was preaching a false imperial decree. As for the purpose...

"Madam, have you ever thought about how to win Brother Shun?"

Speaking of this, Sister Feng's red phoenix eyes sparkled with gold, and she only hoped that the bigger the number that came out of her aunt's mouth, the better.

Who would have thought that Mrs. Wang said indifferently: "We and he are very much in the same spirit. If we blindly use money to win over, we will be out of touch. Why don't we wait for Yun girl to get married in the future, and we think about adding a few lifts to her?" dowry."

"This……"

Wang Xifeng's heart suddenly turned cold, since it was a dowry, the right to dispose of it was in Shi Xiangyun's hands, how could he hug her in the future?

She refused to give up and tried to persuade her, but Mrs. Wang ordered: "Take advantage of this free time, and you go and find him, so that I can ask him for advice in person."

Wang Xifeng had no choice but to agree.

He also thought to himself, since my aunt is self-righteous and refuses to pay for it, it seems that she has to start with the thief.

If he puts on the posture of not stalking the hawk if he doesn't see the rabbit, won't my aunt be stingy anymore?
With this thought in mind, after leaving the hut in Qingtang, she sent Ping'er to invite Jiao Shun, and went to the pavilion near Lixiangyuan with ease, planning to first show Jiao Shun's hideousness at this place where Jiao Shun first showed his hideousness. 'Dayi' some.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Jiao Shun came up the mountain along the steps.

Wang Xifeng hurriedly got up to greet her, and said with a smile: "Did Ping'er tell you that there are no eyes and ears of Lai's family in this garden now, as long as we are vigilant, everything will go on as usual."

"Why is this?"

Jiao Shun raised his eyebrows and said, "Could it be that you did something?"

It was his words that Wang Xifeng was waiting for, so he took the opportunity to provoke him to tell Lai Da the eye drops in front of Mrs. Wang, and said triumphantly: "Yesterday my wife and the master had a big fight because of this. The wife asked me to drive all the members of the Lai family out of the Grand View Garden, and it is obvious that my method has worked."

You are the culprit!
Jiao Shun suddenly realized that Mrs. Wang suddenly made Li Daitao stiff, but it turned out that she was provoked by Wang Xifeng and mistakenly thought that her husband secretly asked Lai Da to investigate him. Under shame and anger, he lost his reason and chose to turn the fake into the real .

However, after Wang Xifeng showed off his strategy, he was waiting for Jiao Shun to flatter him, but he looked at him with a complicated expression, without any sign of admiration.

"Why, did I do something wrong?!"

Sister Feng was immediately annoyed, she put one hand on Man's waist, Danfeng's triangular eyes glowed fiercely.

"No……"

Jiao Shun said weakly and perfunctorily: "I just can't find words for a while, so I don't know what to praise you for."

"Then have you figured it out now?"

Wang Xifeng showed her white teeth slightly, and her voice was sweet and greasy, and there was a sense of coldness: "If you say something bad, I won't listen to it."

Jiao Shun was just perfunctory, but looking at Wang Xifeng's posture, if she didn't satisfy her, she would probably rush to use her hand and mouth--if it was normal, it would be fine, the two have loved each other for a long time, so there is no need to worry about this Feng Spicy hit again.

But today it was not possible, he was afraid that Sister Feng would find the traces left by Mrs. Wang, so he hesitated for a moment, then squatted down with a sullen face, raised his hands to touch his chest, then compared his hands to his heart, and sang without emotion: "Listen to me!" Say thank you, because of you, the four seasons are warm, thank you, thank you, the world is more beautiful..."

The loveless expression and movement, coupled with the blunt but sweet libretto, made Wang Xifeng's smile tremble.

She covered her stomach and gave Jiao Shun a charming look, and said with a smile, "What kind of song is this? It sounds interesting——afterwards, why don't you sing down?"

Jiao Shun spread his hands together: "Just these two sentences for now."

"Then I don't care!"

Wang Xifeng took half a step forward, drew a circle on Jiao Shun's heart with his pale finger, and said coquettishly: "When you sing it all tonight, my aunt will reward you very much."

Just the charm in that voice overwhelmed Jiao Shun's singing more than a hundred times.

In normal times, Jiao Shun would probably show respect.

But having just experienced the ravages of the female knight, facing Wang Xifeng's teasing can't be said to be calm, it can only be said that there is no wave.

"What, are you bored?!"

Seeing this, Wang Xifeng's pretty face immediately sank, and the evil spirit in her eyes was several levels higher than before!

"how is this possible!"

Jiao Shun hastily quibbled: "I promised my family, tonight..."

In the middle of the conversation, Wang Xifeng's little hand that was originally on his chest slipped silently to his waist, grabbed a piece of soft flesh and sneered, "You might as well make it clearer, is it important for me or your family?" ?”

Jiao Shun had no choice but to change his words, patted his chest and said: "Grandma, don't worry, I will crawl into this garden even if I crawl at night, to find grandma to comfort the pain of lovesickness!"

Only then did Wang Xifeng let go of him, and gave him a look of 'you are sensible', and then beckoned Jiao Shun to take a seat in the pavilion.

Jiao Shun rubbed his waist and eyes, and while walking into the pavilion, he secretly planned to give this woman who is addicted to vegetables a good look at night.

When the two of them took their seats next to each other, Wang Xifeng's face turned solemn, and he said seriously: "Let's talk about the business first—Lai Da, what are you going to do?"

This is also called talking about the business first?

Jiao Shun secretly rolled his eyes, and said solemnly: "Didn't Lai Da want to ask his son for an official? Why not let his family follow our old example."

"You mean..."

Wang Xifeng's eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "Let them and their husbands also be expelled?"

But immediately she shook her head like a rattle: "No, this is too cheap for them!"

"Naturally, you can't rely on your family for nothing!"

Jiao Shun said: "I originally thought of a way to trick him, but since the second mistress has created a good situation, it's better to use the situation to make the best use of it. Let's work hard all the way, forcing his family to stay in Rongguo Mansion. , I have to take the initiative to pay for the money to redeem myself!"

"This method is good!"

Hearing that there are good things to be gained, Wang Xifeng smiled immediately: "The Lai family has embezzled so much money from the house over the years, and they are about to hit him hard!"

After a pause, he raised his feet and clung to Jiao Shun's legs, winkingly said: "It's better not to disturb the mansion, let's add two to one and make five."

She's desperate for money, I'm afraid she won't be able to change it in her life!

Jiao Shun spread his hands helplessly: "I really want to, but you can take the money, but I don't dare to accept it—let's not talk about whether the Lai family will bite back, and when Lai Shangrong becomes an official, I won't accept it." It’s easy to control him, isn’t it?”

"Do you really want to be an official for him?"

"The address of the Engineering College has been decided long ago, and it is going to be rebuilt with the old Prince Yizhong's villa that was bad a few years ago. Take the initiative to pledge a sum of money to Gongxue, as long as you start this way, and then ask the imperial merchants to apportion it, you will be famous."

As he spoke, he spread his hands again: "If you want to use him to attract the attention of the civil servants, you can't just give him no benefits at all—if that's the case, you'll be forcing them to jump over the wall."

Wang Xifeng thought about it for a while, and if it really happened, Lai Shangrong would be considered a rebel among scholars—although his Juren was paid for, he could be regarded as a member of the imperial examination system after all.

At that time, if Lai Shangrong wanted to be an official, he would have to be determined to be Jiao Shun's lackey.

So he nodded and said: "Then it will be cheaper for him!"

Saying that, he curled his lips and squinted at Jiao Shun: "Officials always take money from their families, but you are lucky, the money you get will be sent to the public!"

"I'm not short of silver envoys right now."

Jiao Shun said indifferently: "Besides, power and wealth are power and wealth, power comes first and money comes after. When I have a firm foothold in the court..."

He had just started here, and Wang Xifeng stood up impatiently: "Who is patient to listen to you say this? Let's go, follow me to the hut in Qingtang."

"Qing, Qingtang hut?"

Jiao Shun was taken aback when he heard the words, then slowly got up, and asked with a guilty conscience: "What are you doing in Qingtang hut?"

"Where can I go?"

Wang Xifeng gave him a sideways look: "Of course my wife has something urgent to ask you!"
