Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 379 The flood washed the Dragon King Temple

Just like that, when Lai Shangrong returned home from Sanya, he saw Siqi and Xiaohong in the hall, staring at each other with big eyes.

As Youshi got older, Jin Chuan also began to take over the affairs of the house. After all, she was not as skilled in business as Youshi, so she arranged the two of them together without knowing what was going on.

"Did you come here for something?"

Since they have been arranged in one place, there is no need to deliberately avoid them.

Although he knew the basics and had an indifferent attitude, Si Qi and Xiao Hong were worried and looked at each other warily.

"We are all our own!" Lai Shangrong simply made it clear.

As soon as he heard that he was one of his own, Si Qi understood it and hurriedly said: "Uncle, please help me quickly! We are all being bullied to the point of being bullied!"

Now that Lai Shangrong made the relationship clear, she no longer had any worries. She even vaguely expected to reveal the relationship between Yingchun and Lai Shangrong to Wang Xifeng through Xiao Hong.

From the chess player's perspective.

Although, Uncle Lai has great powers, but he is not the master of the Rong Mansion after all, and it is difficult to save the nearby fire from the distant water, so it is not as convenient as Wang Xifeng to take care of him.

With added fuel and jealousy, he recounted the story of Nanny Yingchun stealing golden phoenix ginseng and gambling, and how she was pushed out to take the blame.

Finally, he complained: "We admit that she participated in gambling, but if she really set up the game, how could she lose to the point of stealing the lady's golden phoenix?"

The so-called "nine out of ten bets" are only aimed at gamblers, but as a banker who sets up a game, it is completely different.

At least, Lai Shangrong has never seen any gambling house fail.

Lai Shangrong said lightly: "This woman's hands and feet are not clean. It would be a good thing to drive her away, so as not to follow her later and make the house a mess."

The butt determines the head. Lai Shangrong doesn't care whether the Rong Mansion catches the main culprit.

On the contrary, setting up a gambling situation made it easier for him to come and go.

"Uncle! Her hands and feet are dirty, so I can just drive her away. But after all, she is the young lady's nanny, so she can't be labeled like this! Besides, the uncle is worried that the young lady will not be willing to be a concubine... Now... Miss Zi should not respond to Tiantian's calls. If you are willing to help me now, Miss Zi will not be able to..."

I have to say that speaking still requires skills.

Lai Shangrong had no intention of clearing up the Rong Mansion, but Siqi started by capturing Yingchun's heart, and he became motivated.

"Then do you know who framed you?"

As soon as these words came out, Si Qi remained silent and turned to look at Xiao Hong.

She still didn't know that Lin Zhixiao's family had no choice but to pretend that the flood had washed away the Dragon King Temple. This was why she was eager to reveal the relationship between Yingchun and Lai Shangrong in front of Xiaohong.

Xiaohong groaned secretly in her heart. She never expected that Si Qi would come to complain. She originally planned to wait until she finished speaking before repeating Wang Xifeng's words.

At this time, he dared not speak falsely.

Although Lai Shangrong said that Si Qi was one of his own, Wang Xifeng's identity was different, and Lai Shangrong only identified himself and Si Qi without any other hints.

"Uncle! There is a misunderstanding! Miss Bao threatened my mother with the matter between me and the uncle. Last time, the uncle told me that it was not convenient for me to ask my wife for help at the moment. My mother was forced to have no choice but to push the second lady's nanny to take the blame! In order to win the old lady's trust, my mother had to take out my aunt and punish her as well."

Baochai?

Lai Shangrong asked in confusion: "How could Miss Bao know?"

Immediately, he remembered the plot of Baochai Flapping Butterflies in the original novel, and Didi Cuiting eavesdropped on it and said, "You will tell me in detail!"

Xiaohong had no choice but to repeat everything Lin Zhixiao's family said.

After hearing that Xue Baochai only said that the marriage was private, Lin Zhixiao's family also made insinuations and asked Xiaohong if she had lost her virginity. Lai Shangrong became more confident.

Originally, he was confused, since Xue Baochai was determined to marry into his family, how could he threaten him with his own.

Thinking of this, he blurted out: "She is probably using what she heard in Didui Pavilion to deceive your mother!"

When Xiaohong heard Didi Cuiting, she was immediately stunned and fell to her knees with a thump.

"My lord, you are aware of it! I did lose my veil and was picked up by Master Yun in the back porch. However, this maid did not give or take it privately. Ever since I followed my lord, I have been single-minded and have never had a second thought!"

Only then did Lai Shangrong realize that he had accidentally exposed himself. He pretended to be profound and said: "Of course, the uncle is aware of everything. He never said it because he wanted to give you a chance. Otherwise, your uncle just doesn't want to ask the second wife for someone, so why can't he leave the eldest wife?" The second young lady and the uncle are both here, so why don’t we get you as a maid?" He had doubts at the beginning, why did Xiaohong take the initiative to throw herself into her arms when she saw him for the first time.

Now that I think about it, it was probably the changes caused by the Didi Cuiting incident.

Although he was very sure of Xiaohong's virginity, her heart was still somewhat impure, and a proper beating was still necessary.

This beating made Xiao Hong horrified. She knelt down in front of Lai Shangrong, hugged his thigh and begged for mercy: "Master, please be clear! I don't mean to deceive you, I'm just afraid of Master..."

"That's all! It won't happen again!"

"Hey! Hey!"

While Xiao Hong quickly agreed, she couldn't help but feel glad that she didn't have the chance to convey Wang Xifeng's intention.

Otherwise, how could Uncle Lai, who is so insightful, not know what his plans are?
It's just that although my own affairs have been resolved, it is also true that my mother cooperated with Xue Baochai to frame Yingchun.

Without Wang Xifeng to support them, how could he be able to withstand the weight of Yingchun and Siqi on his own?

Thinking of this, she hurriedly begged: "Sir! Mother was also worried about the slave, so she had no choice but to wrong the second lady's nanny. I beg you, please be merciful!"

This really puts Lai Shangrong in a dilemma. For him, the palms and backs of his hands are all flesh.

Especially when Xue Baochai was still about to take action, if he spoke up for Yingchun at this time and cut off her thoughts, wouldn't he be picking up apples and losing papayas?

The gap is not that big. Perhaps pineapple and papaya are more appropriate to describe the gap between the two.

Children only take multiple-choice questions, so Lai Shangrong naturally grasps it with both hands, both hands must be strong.

First, he said to Xiao Hong, "That's it! Take your mother to Zhujin Tower and apologize to the second young lady in person."

"Hey! Hey! This slave will take my mother over tomorrow and apologize to the second young lady in person!"

Lai Shangrong turned to Si Qi and said: "It's not that I don't want to make the decision for you, but it's just a good thing to take this opportunity to kick that unclean person away from the second young lady. If I insist on justice, I will let you She had a chance to exonerate.

In a while I will get a set of masks, you take it back to the second lady first, and then I will go to Miss Bao, and said nicely, I have to ask her to bow her head and admit her mistake, in short, I won't wrong you. "

Although he didn't want to do multiple-choice questions, Lai Shangrong still had a grudge against Xue Baochai, who was causing trouble.

It's okay to stir up trouble in the Rong Mansion, but if he enters his own house, it will be so troublesome, which is not what he wants to see.

As Tanchun said in the original work, it is not easy for a wealthy family to break through from the outside, but once it is unstable internally, it is much easier for outsiders to take advantage of the loopholes.

Didn't he just take advantage of the internal strife in Rong Mansion and take advantage of many loopholes?

If Li Wan hadn't been ostracized in Rong Mansion, why would he have asked him for help?How could it be so easy...

Recently, he also took advantage of the dispute between the first and second houses in Rong Mansion to drive away tigers and devour wolves, planning to keep Jia Zheng out of the house.

Thinking of this, I secretly wondered whether to let Xue Baochai be an outside room, so that there would be less trouble in the future if he had a separate house.

Although Si Qi was unwilling to accept Lai Shangrong's arrangement, he was not so persistent when he thought that he could take the opportunity to eliminate Wu Cunjing for Zhujin Tower.

Besides, she knew Yingchun's character well, so she would be overjoyed with this result.

"You all obey the master's orders! I will talk to the young lady tomorrow."

I've come here and asked for leave, so how could I not have expectations?

After all, Si Qi was embarrassed in front of Xiao Hong and could only express it in a vague way.

Xiao Hong was always alert and heard what Si Qi meant, and said hurriedly: "I've been out for a while, so I went back before asking for leave from the Second Grandma."

She was hinting to Lai Shangrong that Wang Xifeng was still waiting for news.

However, Lai Shangrong didn't care about that. He smiled evilly and said: "Although I have let the past go, you still have to be punished. Second Mistress will turn around and say that I will keep you. How dare she question it?"

As he spoke, he hugged the waist of the two of them and continued: "You don't know what's going on. Just then, the flood rushed into the Dragon King Temple. A family doesn't know the other family. It's better to choose a day than to hit it. It's just a good time to meet each other honestly and become familiar with each other, so as not to avoid unnecessary trouble." There will be no more unnecessary misunderstandings in the future!”
