Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 76 Escape from Ningguo Mansion at Night ([-]-in-[-])

It is said that Jia Zhen left Rong Mansion and returned home in a hurry.

Standing in front of the Yimen, he hesitated for a moment, then turned around and ran to Qin Keqing's courtyard to the east.

After arriving in the courtyard, he sent all the servants away before arriving at Qin Keqing's boudoir.

Seeing that there was no one in the room, knowing that he was still in Rongfu, he climbed onto the embroidered bed and faced the quilt and pillow, sniffing promiscuously like a pig.

Ever since Qin Keqing's condition improved, he has been thinking about his daughter-in-law every day.

It's just that Qin Keqing has taken appropriate precautions, and the two dowry maids Ruizhu and Baozhu are always at his side. Secondly, Qin Ye still has an income after all, and he is also afraid that the dispute will cut off this income.

So much so that it has been delayed until now.

Today, with the help of the power of wine, medicine and Qin Ye's side, he completely let go of his worries.

Qin Keqing didn't know that Jia Zhen was in the boudoir, waiting for her to fall into a trap.

After Wang Xifeng left, Jia Mu also felt a little tired, so she left the table first.

Afterwards Mrs. Wang and the others went back to their houses to rest, and she followed Youshi back to Ning Mansion.

The two separated at the Yimen and returned to the hospital respectively.

It's also that Jia Zhen hasn't acted too aggressively in the past few months, but she just asks her to send some lotus seed soup to Tianxiang Tower every day. passed.

When I came back today and saw no one in the courtyard, I didn't think too much, so I ordered the two maids to fetch water and wash themselves while I went back to my room alone.

When I came to the room, I smelled the smell of alcohol and saw a person lying on the embroidered bed. I thought it was Jia Rong who had drunk too much and was taking advantage of the wine to gain courage and come back.

But when I walked through the curtain and came to the bed, I was shocked to realize that it was not Jia Rong but Jia Zhen. I was so frightened that I didn't know what to do.

Jia Zhen turned around when she heard the noise and saw Qin Keqing's stunning appearance and enchanting figure. Her blood suddenly surged. She took a deep breath and couldn't hold it anymore. She stretched out her hand to pull her.

Qin Keqing was so frightened by Jia Zhen's fire-breathing eyes that her face turned pale, and she stood there in a daze.

Fortunately, under the dual effects of alcohol and drugs, Jia Zhen's hands and feet were not flexible, so she got nothing.

After Qin Keqing came back to his senses, he suddenly remembered the story of Lai Shangrong's drop of honey, and for a moment there was only one running word in his mind.

Jia Zhen didn't catch anyone the first time, but when she was about to catch again, she saw Qin Keqing running away.

At this time, he already regarded Qin Keqing as a prey. He was not willing to let the prey in his mouth escape like this, so he hurriedly got up from the bed and chased after her.

The two of them chased each other from the front yard to the backyard, and from the main hall to the arrow path below Tianxiang Downstairs. Although there were servants passing by on the road, Jia Zhen had always been unscrupulous in Ning Mansion, so they all gave way and no one dared to say a word.

Fortunately, Jia Zhen lost her mind, otherwise Qin Keqing would have no way to escape as long as she yelled.

Just like this, you chased each other all the way, and chased out of the back door of Ning Mansion.

Qin Keqing was dumbfounded. He looked around blankly and didn't know where the way out was.

Suddenly he thought that his younger brother Qin Zhong was living in Lai's house, so he ran straight towards Lai's house.

Lai Shangrong came back from Rong Mansion and went to the outside study room to check the homework assigned to Qin Zhong when he left. After the inspection was completed, he made comments.

After leaving the outer study and preparing to return to the back garden, I heard a panicked voice coming from the concierge.

"Lai...Uncle Lai is at home! I'm looking for Qin Zhong!"

Ok?
Qin Keqing's voice!

Lai Shangrong thought of being drugged tonight and hurried to the concierge.

I saw Qin Keqing with messy hair and hair, a look of fear on his face like a frightened rabbit, panting...

This kind of behavior makes every man unable to help but... feel pity for him.

"Qin! Why are you here?"

Lai Shangrong only had time to ask a question when he saw a figure coming out of the door and about to pounce on Qin Keqing.

He quickly stopped the person coming and pushed him away.

Jia Zhen fell to the ground and barked helplessly: "Lai! Get up and drive away!"

Lai Shangrong said calmly, "Master Zhen! What does this mean?"

Jia Zhen woke up a little at this time and shouted: "This is a family matter of my Ning family, it's not your turn to get involved!"

Lai Shangrong smiled and said, "Oh? I am Master Qin Zhong and I am half of the Qin family. How can it be none of my business?"

Then he said to Wangcai: "Uncle Zhen is drunk, go to the back and call a few people to take him back! Let Sister-in-law Zhen come over again!"

After all, Jia Zhen couldn't move her limbs, and she was hollowed out by wine, and she came up and tore her a few times, but was easily pushed down by Lai Shangrong.

He repeated this several times without getting tired of it, and simply stepped on Jia Zhen's chest with his foot.

Jia Zhen lay on the ground and said harsh words to him.

Qin Keqing stared at Lai Shangrong's leering figure as he trampled Jia Zhen under his feet, dazed, as if there were stormy waves in front of him, but as long as he stood behind him, there would be no more danger.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a different kind of emotion.

After a while, Wangcai brought a few servants over. Seeing that he was trampling Jia Zhen under his feet, he no longer had any scruples, and he was less measured in his actions when holding Jia Zhen.

Watching them go away, Lai Shangrong turned around and looked at Qin Keqing, meeting her loving eyes full of grievance, fear and self-pity.

He didn't ask about the whole story, but just comforted him: "He doesn't dare to mess around while I'm here, don't worry!"

Qin Keqing lowered her head and said with a blushing face, "I'm troubling Uncle Lai!"

Lai Shangrong smiled freely: "It doesn't matter! Let's go inside and wait for my sister-in-law to come!"

Qin Keqing nodded silently.

"hiss!……"

Lai Shangrong looked at Qin Keqing in surprise and saw her biting the corner of her mouth and taking a breath.

Concerned: "But where is it hurt?"

Qin Keqing lowered his head in silence, and after a while he said, "It seems like he sprained his foot!"

Ok?
Lai Shangrong immediately handed his arm to Qin Keqing.

He asked calmly: "Can you help me walk?"

Qin Keqing's expression was suffocated. Seeing Lai Shangrong's calm face, he felt ashamed.

Even through the thick clothes, when Lai Shangrong's forearm was on, the heartbeat of 'dongdongdong' sounded like a thunderous drum.

He glanced at Lai Shangrong hurriedly and saw that he seemed unaware, so he felt a little relieved.

That voice was all Qin Keqing's imagination. Of course Lai Shangrong had no way of noticing it, but he could see Qin Keqing's nervousness.

Dabao said: "Qin Zhong is still young, so don't let him know, leave it to me to handle it!"

Qin Keqing knew very well about Qin Zhong's weak temperament. Besides, how could a teenage boy be tough on Jia Zhen?When she came to Lai's house, she actually placed her hopes on Lai Shangrong, who had once said that he would protect the people he cared about.

"Well! It's all up to uncle!"

The voice was gentle and moving, even though Lai Shangrong had already gone through a fierce battle, he almost couldn't hold himself back when he heard these slightly ambiguous words.

After finally arriving at the flower hall, when Qin Keqing sat on the chair, someone brought a piece of silk and wrapped a ball of snow in person.

Returning to the hall, he walked straight to Qin Keqing and squatted down.He raised his face and said with concern: "It's not a trivial matter to break your muscles and bones, let me show you!"

Without waiting for Qin Keqing to speak, he reached out with both hands to grab the ankles under the skirts.

The last layer of window paper between men and women is the most difficult to pierce. Now that he is given this opportunity to act urgently, if he does not seize it, will he bear the name of Neptune?
Women's feet in ancient times, like many other unspeakable parts, could not be seen, let alone touched, by anyone except their husbands.

He just wanted to leave in Qin Keqing's heart the feeling that his feet had been touched by him.

Although he is a bit shameless, he is not a moral gentleman to begin with, and he doesn't have to be rigid in order to save others.

Modern people's knowledge of cold compresses and hot compresses is common sense, so he packed a ball of snow in advance.

Here is the difference between him and Jia Zhen, the same purpose, but the different scenes and processing methods give people a completely different feeling.

Before Qin Keqing could recover from his words, Lai Shangrong placed a pair of tender feet on his squatting thighs.

Although he wanted to stop, he thought that he was just afraid of hurting his muscles and bones, so how could he say such words that would repel people thousands of miles away.

Seeing Lai Shangrong looking at his feet intently, Qin Keqing blushed, her trembling eyelashes drooped, and she didn't dare to look at him again.

Immediately I felt that a lotus foot had taken off its shackles, and I was shocked. Before I could say anything, the socks had already faded away. The coldness of winter had just invaded, and a pair of warm hands wrapped it up without any barrier, and the warmth The scorching temperature spreads through the soles and arches of the feet, all the way up the ankles, and to all the limbs.

Qin Keqing's mind went blank at this time, and then he felt the same experience repeated with the other foot.

"Uncle...uncle!~"

She murmured in embarrassment, and the two blushes on her cheeks quickly spread to her neck. If it weren't for the cover of her clothes, it would have been as if her whole body was surrounded by a blushing cloud.

The sound of "uncle" was cadenced and melodious, and Lai Shangrong looked at Qin Keqing with eyes full of bewilderment.

It is necessary to show intoxication appropriately, otherwise it will only make her feel that you have no idea about her, thus missing a good opportunity.

This does not require deliberate performance, Lai Shangrong also showed his true feelings at the right time.

He blurted out: "Ms. Qin, you are really..."

As if aware of something wrong, he stopped talking in time, showing a face of shame.

When Qin Keqing looked over and saw the shame on her face, she hurriedly lowered her head and hurriedly put on shoes and socks for her left foot.

He added: "It should be that my right foot is sprained. I can only apply cold compresses within a day, and then alternate hot and cold compresses after a day."

As he spoke, he applied the snow ball wrapped in silk cloth and rubbed back and forth on the swollen area.

Too much is too little, otherwise she will be labeled as Jia Zhen and others.

Seeing him revealing his true feelings like this, Qin Keqing actually felt such narrow joy in her heart. She didn't expect that the indomitable him would also...

Time passed minute by minute, until there was a noise outside, Qin Keqing suddenly woke up and suddenly retracted her lotus feet under her skirt.

Lai Shangrong finally stood up. His legs were numb from squatting for too long, and he staggered and almost fell down.

Qin Keqing smiled when he saw this, and his whole room was filled with joy.

Lai Shangrong quickly calmed down and handed the socks to Qin Keqing to put away.

When they came to the door, they saw Youshi coming with Yindie, Baozhu and other maids, followed by a reluctant Jia Rong.

"Why did such a thing happen?" Youshi complained at first, and then said: "The master probably drank too much at the moment. Brother-in-law, you must help cover it up."

While talking, Baozhu and Ruizhu who followed Youshi had already run in front of Qin Keqing, and the three hugged each other and wept.

Lai Shangrong just looked at Jia Rong and said with a half-smile, "Brother Rong, don't you have anything to say?"

Jia Rong reluctantly said: "How dare I talk too much about my father!"

Lai Shangrong pretended to be pretentious and said: "Bullshit! The right way is that the king will not destroy his country if he criticizes his ministers, and his family will not be destroyed if his father criticizes his ministers. Your father has such thoughts, but you don't say that you protect your wife, but you dare not say so? What the hell are you doing? Doesn’t he count as a man!”

Jia Rong muttered and complained: "You are not from our family, and the family law cannot hit you on the head!"

"Can Jia Zhen be able to cover the sky with one hand at home? Doesn't he still have your grandfather above him? Even if your grandfather doesn't care, there is still an old lady. Regardless of the old lady, there is still a clan mansion? Can family law be greater than national law?"

Jia Rong retorted: "How can a son sue his father? Besides, how can he go out and say it with his elbows folded in his sleeves?"

"What a tuck your elbows in your sleeves! You are being filial. In this case, just leave it alone and wait until your father wakes up tomorrow!"

Although he knew that Jia Zhen was drugged, he had no need to excuse Jia Zhen, so he did not intend to say it.

"Hey!" Jia Rong agreed happily and turned to Qin Keqing.

He said with a face: "You are too ignorant, why are you bothering outsiders? Come back with me quickly!"

Youshi also looked guilty and said to Lai Shangrong: "Then let's go back first. Brother-in-law, you should rest earlier!"

Seeing Qin Keqing looking sad and pale.

Lai Shangrong hurriedly called out: "Wait!"

Who knows that Jia Zhen's alcohol and medicine will not go down, so Qin Keqing can't be let into the tiger's mouth.

Pointing to Jia Rong, he said, "If you're so cowardly, can you count on him when you go back?"

Jia Rong was afraid of Jia Zhen but not Lai Shangrong. The reason why he was timid was just because he was afraid of making things worse. After hearing this, he couldn't hold back.

"Who do you think you are? You don't even take a pee to look after yourself. How dare you meddle in our family's affairs?"

Lai Shangrong sneered and said: "I don't want to take care of the mess in your family, but Qin is Qin Zhong's sister, and I can't tolerate being abused like this by you! Since you said I can't take care of it, I still have to take care of it!"

Then he shouted to the outside: "Come here! Take my post to Prince Zhongshun's mansion! I want to see if I can't control it, the prince can't control it!"

Jia Rong didn't expect that Lai Shangrong actually dared to fight against her, so she shrank her head and looked at Youshi.

You Shi hurriedly came up to smooth things over and said: "Brother-in-law, please don't be impulsive. If this matter breaks out, it will hinder the empresses in the palace, so don't talk about it outside!"

Lai Shangrong was also bluffing. Although Jia Zhen had treacherous intentions, it was just an attempt in the end. With the power of Jia's family, it was impossible to really do anything about it, and it would be useless to make a fuss with Qin Keqing.

He pretended to come to Qin Keqing and said, "Qin, what do you say?"

The implication is that as long as Qin Keqing nods, even if it hinders Yuan Chun in the palace, he will not hesitate to make the matter bigger and seek justice for her.

This careless behavior just touched the softness in Qin Keqing's heart, and she looked at him with tears in her eyes.

"If it really spreads, I will also...please ask uncle..."

Lai Shangrong also borrowed the donkey from the slope and said, "Then you go back first! We'll talk about it tomorrow!"

After such a fuss, Jia Rong did not dare to bring Qin Keqing back again.

He didn't care about Youshi, but he felt it was inappropriate. Why did he say, "But I can't live here with you!"

Lai Shangrong said: "Since my sister-in-law still has doubts, why don't you stay with Qin Shi, you are the elder sister of the second sister..."

Youshi shook her head quickly after hearing this. She was a very cautious little family in Ning Mansion. Without Jia Zhen's nod, she wouldn't dare to stay outside privately.

He hurriedly waved his hands and said: "That's all! The master is not awake yet, I have to go back and take a look! Yindie, you stay and take care of me."

"Hey!" Yindie responded.

After Youshi and Jia Rong left, Lai Shangrong comforted Qin Keqing and said: "There is nothing that cannot be solved. Remember what I told you, never talk about life and death lightly!"

When Qin Keqing heard this, he lowered his head and agreed softly.

Lai Shangrong knew that Baozhu and Ruizhu were the dowry maids of the Qin family, so he deliberately asked Yindie to go to the guest room together, giving Qin Keqing and the two maids time to clean up the mess.
