Chapter 148: Began to be Jealous and the Start of Being Ambitious

The moon rose above the sky.

.

There was still laughter in the Baihua Restaurant, but the music ended in the Jinxiang Yard.

After seeing the drunk Xue Pan off, Feng Ziying, and Liu Xianglian who was shouldering, Sun Shaozong breathed heavily on the steps, and Lu Jianxing came up behind.

"Your Excellency."

He rubbed his hands and said rather awkwardly, "This wine was supposed to be my treat, but you have to pay for it. It's really...

Sun Shaozong raised his hand to stop Lu Jianxing's polite remarks. He looked back at Shen Lian, and then at the famous prostitute Yun'er who had sent him out. He stopped talking for a while, and finally sighed, "Forget it, let's go."

As he said this, he went forward to untie the reins and rolled onto the horse. He turned the horse's head and said, "Go back and wait for a few days. Brother Feng is an impetuous man. You must be able to hear about it before the end of the month."

After saying that, without waiting for Lu Jianxing to respond, he rode away with a clip of horseback.

Lu Jianxing's face changed. He kept watching Sun Shaozong disappear at the end of the alley. He then turned around and reluctantly smiled, "Lady Yun'er, we brothers are leaving too."

Yun'er greeted and said in a smooth voice, "Forgive Yun'er for not sending you far, My Lords."

"It’s fine Lady Yun'er, we..."

Shen Lian hurriedly returned a greeting. He was about to say something, but Lu Jianxing had already pulled his back collar and dragged him into the alley.

The mounts of the two men were also trained. Although they were not towed, they followed them step by step.

Bump~

In the middle of the alley, Lu Jianxing suddenly pushed Shen Lian against the wall, and the dust rustled. Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

"What the hell were you doing?!"

Lu Jianxing's deep voice was full of anger "Who said that we must seize this good opportunity before coming? Is that how you seize the opportunity?!"

His chest oppressed Shen Lian and nearly bled, but he was not angry at all. He just said with a smile, "Brother, I missed it..."

Crackle~

Before he could finish, Lu Jianxing slapped again, Shen Lian's mouth tore, and his long gown was stained with blood.

"One hundred and eighty-eight silver taels, that's exactly one hundred and eighty-eight silver taels! It’s our three-year salary in just a meal!"

"And I dare to say that if there were no Lord Sun and the others around, even if you could afford these 188 silver taels, I'm afraid you can't invite Yun'er to come out!"

"Listen to my advice, such a woman is not something we brothers can have in mind. Besides, our third brother has lost his life because of a woman. I don't want you to follow his lead!"

The last sentence touched Shen Lian.

He was silent for a while, and finally nodded, "I got it, I promise you that I won't be provoked by Yun'er again!"

Lu Jianxing just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard, but he listened to Shen Lian and said in a deep voice, "But you also have to remember, brother, that I will not always be the Shen Lian today! One day, I will sit at the head of the hall and let those Yamen and nobles flatter like dogs!"

—Dividing Line—

"Ah-choo!"

With the strength of the alcohol, Sun Shaozong let his horse ride on its own in the night wind. Suddenly, his nose itched, and he sneezed.

Maybe the women at home were talking about him.

Thinking like this, he sped up and hurried back to the Sun Mansion.

When he got to the backyard hall, Ruan Rong and Xiangling were showing each other some baby belly wear. They said speechlessly, "Why is the box full after making a few sets of inner belly wear?"

When Ruan Rong was pregnant, the group of beauties in Sun Shaozu's house had the extra task of embroidering belly innerwear in addition to being jealous. As a result, they accumulated hundreds of pieces in a few months.

"Sister Lin just sent some in the evening." Ruan Rong laughed and said, "Regardless of the craftsmanship, my sister is a talented person, and this pattern is much more exquisite than ours."

With these words, she took out a letter from the bedside and smiled, "Well, she complained about you in the letter, saying that you encouraged Jia Baoyu to stab a horse's nest to retaliate against the servants of the Rongguo Mansion. Now that makes the Second Master Bao mad all day long."

Tch!

Unexpectedly, Lin Daiyu had a clue.

But they both have the aura of the leading role. Why didn't Jia Baoyu see the flaw?

After taking the letter, he scanned it carelessly and found that Jia Baoyu had worked hard to check the accounts.

He didn't know that Jia Baoyu's persistence was because he was angry about the "selling himself" money that had been cheated, or because Jia Baoyu really wanted to practice his basic skills in criminal investigation.

He couldn’t help but admire him. He thought he might really be a good material for criminal investigation. He might as well teach him something real in the future and see how he understands.
