Chapter 154: The Corruption Incident of Rongguo Mansion [Part 2]

"Second Brother!"

Sun Shaozong was observing Jia Baoyu's situation. Xue Pan came up to him again and said in a low voice, "Why do I feel that Brother Bao is a little weird? He was not like that when my sisters were here just now."

Even he saw the difference, which showed that Sun Shaozong's feeling was not wrong.

He took a few steps forward and said, "Take the food away. You haven't eaten anything in the past two days and nights. If you eat too much, your stomach will not be able to take it."

In fact, those maids and nannies were already worried. They were afraid of provoking Jia Baoyu and didn't dare to stop him.

At this time, when someone said it, the servants tried to grab the food. Seeing that Baoyu didn't mean to stop them, they rushed to take it away.

When Jia Baoyu heard Sun Shaozong's voice, he was shocked. He looked up hopefully and opened his mouth to greet him. Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

But then, he did not know what was coming to his mind, and his face appeared a little tangled and timid. He hesitated, and only shouted, "Second Brother."

Sun Shaozong was puzzled when he saw this.

He gave Xue Pan a signal, but unexpectedly, this fool was staring at him, and his face was unclear.

Thus, he had no choice but to make it clear again, "Brother Baoyu and I have something to talk about, you guys can go down first."

"Right, right!"

Xue Pan then responded and hurriedly waved away like a fly, "Get out of here, don't delay our Brothers talking!"

After all, he was a Young Master, and he was always known for his insolence. The servant girls and nannies hesitated for a moment and hurried out of the room.

Sun Shaozong just pulled a spring stool, sat down opposite Jia Baoyu, and said with a smile, "Tell me, what have you found out these days that you made such a big commotion?”

After a pause, he added, "Your family has made such a big fuss that it is impossible to cover it up in the future. It is better to say it directly and save everyone from listening to rumors later."

Jia Baoyu didn't want to say anything, but after hearing what he said was reasonable, he had to frown and sighed. "In this case, our family is going to become the biggest laughing stock in the Capital."

With these words, he came to know all his experiences these ten days.

But Jia Baoyu said that day that he knew about the absurdity of "one man making deals with two families," and was prompted by Lin Daiyu. Knowing that her silver taels had been coveted by the slaves, he was furious and vowed to investigate the matter thoroughly.

With the price list sent by Sun Shaozong and the method of distinguishing the authenticity of materials, Jia Baoyu did not hesitate to look into the case.

However, it turned out that Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng were the first to be exposed on Wu Xindeng’s list.

In addition, there were also Old Lady Jia's confidants, Madam Wang and Madam Xing's hostels, Concubine Zhao's Brother, Jia He's servants, and Jia Zheng's guests...

So many people were the closest to several Masters in his family, and the silver tales involved were more than one hundred thousand!

Now, it's really a stone that stirred up thousands of waves!

A plea of guilt, a cry of grievance, a cry of sensationalism, and a cry of exasperation...

Jia Lian even used weapons to attack Wang Xifeng. Wang Xifeng, who was directly chased by him, ran around the mansion. According to Jia Lian's own words, it was because Wang Xifeng borrowed his name to enrich her private pockets, that he was extremely angry.

However, everyone else privately believed that the conflict between his wife and him was caused by the unequal distribution of stolen goods.

In a word, the Rongguo Mansion played a scene of chaos in the Heavenly Palace at the same time!

Seeing this, Jia Baoyu was also stunned, even though he was somewhat disheartened.

In the beginning, he said that the Rongguo Mansion was a family of robbers, which was just angry words, but now it seemed that this was all right!

In particular, Jia Baoyu found it hard to accept that even some of his favorite servant girls were involved, more or less.

Just at this time, there was pressure from all sides to accuse him of making trouble out of nothing and stirring up many storms for nothing.

In a fit of pique, Jia Baoyu went on a hunger strike and threatened to kill himself. He did not eat or drink for two whole days and nights!

Hearing this, Xue Pan couldn't help interrupting, "Why did you suddenly eat again?"

"Well..."

Jia Baoyu was at a loss for words, then forced to laugh, "After all, I still have my Grandmother and my parents in the hall. If they were to hold my funeral, wouldn't it be extremely unfilial?"

After a pause, seeing Sun Shaozong staring at himself with burning eyes, he twisted his neck uneasily and added, "Besides, I...... I can't stand being hungry."

"Haha, you little boy..."

Xue Pan laughed and was waiting to comfort Baoyu. Unexpectedly, Sun Shaozong stretched out his hand and lifted him from the chair.

Hearing Sun Shaozong's unquestionable order, he said, "Go outside and watch carefully. Don't let people eavesdrop!"
