The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Hearing Sun Shaozong's words, Wang Xifeng was stunned at first, and then her eyes were full of vigilance.

With one hand covering her collar and the other covering her mouth, she giggled and said, "Erlang has confused me. When did I ever cross paths with you?"

As expected, like servants, like Master, which was also a sensitive party!

"Of course, it's a great kindness."

Sun Shaozong shrugged his shoulders and said, "But if I say this rashly, I'm afraid you may not believe me. Why not…"

He looked at Wang Xifeng's haggard, but foxy face changed, and then continued, "Why don't I make some efforts to help you get back the right to be the stewardess? Let's talk about wealth again some other time, shall we?"

Wang Xifeng's face changed quickly when she heard his offer, but she still giggled and said, "Erlang, I no longer understand anymore."

She was now in the Rongguo Mansion, which could be said to be disreputable. Not to mention the other people, Wang-Shi, her aunt, also complained a lot about her son Jia Baoyu, who protested with a hunger strike.

Under such circumstances, how could Sun Shaozong, an outsider alone, help her regain power?

Therefore, she didn't believe Sun Shaozong's words at all!

"Second Brother, Second Brother Sun?!"

At this moment, Jia Baoyu's cry came again. Wang Xifeng took the opportunity to nod her head and said, "Brother Bao is looking for you. I won't delay Erlang's visit to the garden."

As she spoke, she swung around Sun Shaozong and hurried to the front yard.

"Sister-in-law!"

Sun Shaozong raised his voice slightly behind her. When Wang Xifeng looked back in surprise, he smiled again and said, "Let's see if I can help you first and we shall talk about other things later."

Wang Xifeng's eyes flashed a little suspicion but finally sped up without saying a word.

He sent her off with a peach-like buttock as if they could resist gravity, Sun Shaozong could not understand Jia Lian.

How could the backyard of the boys be comparable to this kind of figure?

The world of fags was really beyond ordinary people's comprehension!

Cough~

Getting back, Sun Shaozong just pointed out the matter and said that he could help Wang Xifeng be in charge of the family expenses again. It was not idle nonsense.

He was obviously trying to help Wang Xifeng, but secretly he was trying to help Ping’er.

After all, if Wang Xifeng was completely set aside or kicked out, Ping'er, as her right-hand man, would not be in a better position.

So it should be taken care of anyway. Just considering the reality, he shouldn’t let Ping’er, the spy, become a dispensable chess player.

Although…

Sun Shaozong couldn't figure out what the use of this spy would be after he got rid of Lai Da.

But whether she can be used or not, it should not be a bad thing to have her be prepared!

Moreover, he offered Wang Xifeng a helping hand. He wanted to take advantage of the relationship of the Wang family, and by doing so he would have gained some profitable business to avoid spending the money of his Elder Brother.

Although Sun Shaozu has always asked whether it was enough, he never cared what he did with the money.

But Sun Shaozong was a man who was going to be a father anyway. He couldn’t joke that others were dandies, but he has always been a black sheep, right?

"Second Brother!"

Sun Shaozong was thinking about his grand plan for the future. Behind him, Jia Baoyu complained, "You let me have a hard time finding you!"

Sun Shaozong smiled back and said, "Why, the little nun who has been coaxed has secretly promised?"

"Don't make fun of me, Second Brother."

When Jia Baoyu came near, he couldn't help but persuade again, "Actually, it's just a misunderstanding. You don't have to fight with Sister Miaoyu."

"I don't want to talk about her. Anyway, I might not see her anymore."

Sun Shaozong interrupted him and said, "I've seen enough of the garden. Is it time to reveal your real purpose for inviting me? I know that you really didn’t invite me to enjoy the garden."

Jia Baoyu felt helpless and said with a wry smile, "I can't hide anything from you."

With these words, he saw several stone piers and a stone table beside him. He brushed the two stone piers with his sleeve and asked Sun Shaozong to sit on the opposite side.

After sitting down, Jia Baoyu sighed again until Sun Shaozong became impatient and began to urge him.

He then said, "Second brother, I'm in a mess now. I don't know what to do, so I can only ask you for advice."

Sun Shaozong rolled his eyes wordlessly. He thought Jia Baoyu was trying to tell him privately the secret that Lai Da had acquired.

Who would have thought of himself as a life coach?

Forget it. Let's take it as it is.

"Is it because after this incident, the Elders of the family look at you differently, and they have a lot of expectations?"

"Exactly."

Jia Baoyu said painfully, "Although my father used to be quite strict, there were a few times he urged me. Now I have to keep my mind closed and study hard so that I can get a good reputation as a scholar in the future."

"My mother knew that I didn't like it, so she planned to take advantage of my prestige in the mansion this time to catch up on the big and small things in the mansion and to inherit the foundation of the Rongguo Mansion in the future."

Sun Shaozong interrupted, "What do you think?"

"Me?"

Jia Baoyu said more bitterly, "I don't know what I really think. On one hand, I want to work hard, not to mention being worthy of all ancestors, or at least living up to Grandpa Jiao's expectations."

"But down in my bones, I'm tired of these mundane things, and I'm afraid I can't do it well."

"What are you afraid of?"

Sun Shaozong scornfully said, "It's just a matter of being a chamberlain when you are admitted to the Imperial Examination. How can it be harder than Uncle Jiao's killing Lai Da? He is an old man and can kill others decisively. How can you be so lees bold as a young man?"

This naturally meant to arouse Baoyu's competitiveness.

Unexpectedly, Jia Baoyu nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, I can't compare with Grandpa Jiao."

Speechless…

Is this boy not self-motivated, or does he have a certain sense of self-acknowledgement of himself?

It seems that there is no hope for him to make his own judgment.

However, it was also a good situation. He could have taken the opportunity to fulfill his promise to Wang Xifeng earlier!

With this in mind, Sun Shaozong reluctantly analyzed and said, "If you want to be a rich and idle person, you don’t need my advice."

"But if you want to take care of the affairs in the mansion, you will certainly offend the Young Second Master and Second Madam Lian. Are you sure you want to become enemies with them?"

"Of course not!"

Jia Baoyu did not hesitate to reply, and then he muttered in some dismay, "Actually, now Brother Lian and Sister Feng are hiding from me. I just saw them in the pavilion, and when I went near them after shouting a few times, they were gone."

"Hehe."

Sun Shaozong smiled and said, "If I were you, I would go to your old ancestor's house to intercede for the second sister-in-law and give her a chance to know her mistake and change it!"

"This can ease the estrangement between you, and also take the opportunity to stabilize the people in your mansion. Recently, the servants in your mansion have been in constant fear, right?"

Seeing Jia Baoyu nodding, Sun Shaozong said with a smile, "As for making progress, who can guarantee that you will be able to pass the Imperial Examination? It's just a matter of doing your best."

"And if you really hate the Imperial Examination, you can just ask your Emperor Brother-in-Law to be kind and bestow an official position for you. By then, you can be happy and free!"
