Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 333
When Lai Shangrong returned home from Sanya, he was greeted by Wangcai who was waiting at the gate.

"Uncle! Someone came to the house today, saying they have something important to ask Aunt Xing!"

"Oh? Who?"

"It's said that he is an old friend of Panxiang Temple, and now he lives in Tongfu Inn."

"Hmm? But with hair growing and dressed like a nun?"

Only then did Lai Shangrong realize that it was Miaoyu.

It's not that he forgot the Miaoyu that he left at the inn, but it's only been more than a month now, and the four pieces of clothing on their master and servant's body are estimated to be worth a hundred taels of silver, so they won't be used up so quickly.

"Dressed like a nun? She looks about fourteen or fifteen years old. She looks like a maid."

Wangcai looked at his uncle with admiration, but he didn't expect that Uncle Lai would even connect with the nun...

Fourteen or fifteen years old, she must be the little nun next to Miaoyu, but since Wangcai looks like a maid, she must not be wearing a monk's robe.

Lai Shangrong couldn't help but sigh at the speed at which Miaoyu spent money.

"What did you say?"

"I followed the uncle's instructions and said that my aunt is about to give birth. The master and his wife are not allowed to see the guests. We will make a decision after reporting to the master and his wife in the evening."

Wangcai originally thought that since she was not a nun, she might not be his uncle's cup of tea, but he didn't expect that there was something more to come.

"Okay! Next time she comes, you can tell her not to come to the house again."

"Hey! The little one is going back now!"

Lai Shangrong was quite helpless. Originally, he was worried that Miaoyu would not spend money fast enough.

If the clouds are really calm and the wind is light, and you can survive the wind and the open air, you will have no chance to take advantage of it.

If it hadn't been for Yuanchun's incident, he wouldn't have hesitated for a moment and would have rushed to Tongfu Inn immediately.

Using beautiful clothes and jade food as bait, we provide targeted guidance to the helpless Miaoyu.

But because of the Yuanchun incident and the subsequent series of impeachments, he suspected that he was under the emperor's surveillance.

Although he has nothing wrong with Miaoyu so far, once there is a follow-up, it will be difficult to explain clearly even if you and I are willing.

Moreover, having troubled Jin Yiwei in the past was tantamount to exposing his shortcomings at this stall.

It seems that the next time the shopkeeper of Tongfu Inn comes to visit, he will not be able to renew their lease.

While secretly calculating, he stepped through the second door.

Youshi, who was guarding the second gate, came forward with the post.

"Shang Rong! I just left yesterday, and the Xue family sent someone to deliver the post again!"

While secretly observing Lai Shangrong's expression, he asked tentatively: "Will Shangrong go to the appointment this time?"

Yesterday, he took Lin Daiyu and Xue Baoqin to his old house and sent them back after dinner.

Xing Xiuyan entertained her for a whole day, but he didn't go back to her new house at night. He slept with her all night, stroking her big belly.

Lai Shangrong nodded and said: "Sister Baochai also mentioned this matter to me at Xiaoxiang Pavilion yesterday. I have already made an agreement there. There is no need to send anyone over to inform me. Just remember to remind me when the time comes."

"Hey!" You agreed.

He thought to himself that it was just as expected. It seemed that what the Xue family wanted was not a trivial matter. Uncle Lai felt that the time was ripe.

Thinking of having one more sister in the future, the profit sharing will naturally decrease accordingly.

He said, "The second wife came last time and said something, but she forgot to tell Shang Rong." "What's the matter?"

Lai Shangrong couldn't help but wonder, since Mrs. Wang had been honest with him, what else needed to go through You's mouth.

"The second wife probably found out about my confinement from Girl Feng, and she said they didn't want us to guard her..."

Speaking of this, he looked at Lai Shangrong full of expectation.

What is this?I have never thought about taking Rong Mansion into consideration. It’s not like You didn’t know about it. Is it worth telling him specifically?
But on second thought, I understood the connotation of Youshi's words.

Counting the days, it was also the time for Qin Keqing to become pregnant.

He smiled and said: "Hehehe! Then take dinner to Tianxiang Tower, you haven't been together for a while."

The You family can be said to be versatile in the new house. Needless to say, the You sisters are also the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Wang Xifeng and Li Wan, who occasionally visited the house before, are both compatible with the sisters-in-law.

He didn't know what You was thinking. He just thought that after Mrs. Wang left last time, he didn't call her when he went to Tianxiang Tower. This was to remind him that he hadn't had his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law on the same stage for a long time.

Besides, since Mrs. Wang is mentioned, aren't her and Qin Keqing's situations the same?

Thinking of this, he added: "Remember to bring that outfit too!"

"Then Shang Rong will go first!" You agreed hastily.

I couldn't help but think of Lai Shangrong's sleep talk that day. It seemed that I had not guessed wrong at the beginning, but I couldn't change it for Aunt Xue at that time, so I had to do the next best thing and let Li Wan try it on first to find out the feeling.

Lai Shangrong was not in a hurry to go to Tianxiang Tower, but instead went to Sister You's yard. He said a few thoughtful words and pretended to listen to the fetal movement before wandering to Tianxiang Tower.

The preparations were surprisingly fast. Not only were the food and drinks on the table, but the two of them had also changed into their uniforms and were standing pretty at the table.

"Shang Rong!~"

"Uncle!~"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! Now that I've changed them, I'll feed you first and then eat!"

Lai Shangrong said, stepped forward, hugged the two people on the left and right, and went inside.

"Shang Rong! Shang Rong..."

You Shi whispered twice, broke free, pointed to the unopened wine jar on the table and said, "First... have some wine first!"

"Oh?" Lai Shangrong looked at the wine jar on the table and asked, "Is this wine ready to drink?"

"Did Shang Rong forget? You can drink this wine after soaking it for three months, but the older it is, the better it will be."

Youshi didn't care about the multiple sisters. She was afraid that she would lose her share of moisture and the chance of pregnancy.

Although the efficacy of Zhang Youshi's medicinal wine was just a guess, the timing of Wang Xifeng and Second Sister You was so coincidental that he didn't hide it, so You couldn't wait to get the wine.

"Okay! Okay! Now that the second wife has said it all, we can't disappoint her!"

In fact, Mrs. Wang has no bottom line in front of Lai Shangrong.

Nowadays, the only ones who really care about face in the Rong Mansion are Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, especially Jia Zheng, who is the most difficult to deal with.

That is to say, when the incident happened in the Ning Mansion, he had already left the capital, otherwise he might not have fought for You Shi and others.

It would be a good idea to add another fire to cook the raw rice into cooked rice before he returns to Beijing.

He hugged the two of them and returned to the table, and touched their cheeks like a dragonfly.

"When you are pregnant, it will be justifiable to give you a title!"
