Chapter 1299: Thirty percent chance? Why don't you just go die!
In the Ningguo Mansion, the wedding had undergone a change due to Jia Baoyu's sudden intrusion.
However, as the person involved, Zhang Cheng had even eaten some melon.
But when he learned that Jia Baoyu had almost broken into the backyard, he was so angry he drew his sword.
Because this wasn't just a child being ignorant; this was Jia Baoyu wanting to be a headless fool!
Fortunately, Lin Daiyu had stopped him at the time, otherwise Zhang Cheng wouldn't have known what rumors would have spread outside.
Inside the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Baoyu was currently lying paralyzed on the bed.
Because this time Jia Zheng truly had the intent to kill, and it was fortunate that Jia Lian and Jia She had stopped him quickly, otherwise he would have truly died!
"You beast, actually doing such a thing, I really should have beaten you to death back then!"
Looking at Jia Baoyu with fury, Jia Zheng couldn't help but roar.
"Husband, saying such things, aren't you blaming me? I didn't expect the Ningguo Mansion to be so overbearing. We are old relatives, why beat Baoyu like this! Even I was beaten..."
Crying to Jia Zheng, Wang Lady couldn't help but feel aggrieved.
Hearing Wang Lady's words, Jia Zheng slapped her in the face and said, "You still have the nerve to speak? How much face did you make me lose yesterday? He is ignorant, are you ignorant too? You even dared to cause trouble in the Ningguo Mansion!"
Looking at Wang Lady with anger, Jia Zheng felt a sense of exhaustion.
Because he just wanted to be a good official, why was his family full of useless things?
Although he didn't understand the ways of officialdom, he understood that some things absolutely could not be done, just like Jia Baoyu breaking into the backyard, and the bridal chamber at that. This not only lost etiquette but also left Brother Jue with no face!
"Enough, let this matter end here. Brother Jue hasn't said much, let him reflect on his own!"
Looking at Wang Lady, Jia She also felt exhausted.
Because how could his own sister-in-law be like a big fool? Not only were her actions outrageous, but she also invited people to curse her!
"This beast, I think it's better to just smash him to death!"
Picking up a chair, Jia Zheng grew angrier the more he thought about it, and simply walked toward Jia Baoyu.
Looking at this scene in shock, Jia She and the others were dumbfounded, because he truly wanted to kill Baoyu!
"Stop him, stop him!"
Stepping forward to persuade Jia Zheng, Wang Lady and the others were all in a panic.
Just as the Rongguo Mansion was in an uproar, the Ningguo Mansion was full of liveliness.
Although there was some trouble yesterday, it wasn't a big deal for Zhang Cheng. However, from then on, a notice appeared in front of the Ningguo Mansion's gate: Jia Baoyu and dogs are not allowed to enter!
Regarding the Ningguo Mansion's actions, although Jia Mu was very angry, she could only pretend not to see it.
After all, if Feng Tang and the others hadn't stopped them last night, after the Ningguo Mansion finished their wedding, the Rongguo Mansion would have had to hold a funeral!
In the main hall of the backyard, Qin Keqing offered tea, her face full of respect as she said, "Mother!"
"Oh!"
Looking at Qin Keqing with a face full of smiles, Jia Liu Shi took out a key and said, "From today on, everything in the mansion will depend on you!"
"Yes, Mother, I understand!"
Speaking to Jia Liu Shi, Qin Keqing appeared very obedient.
After all, being able to manage the entire Ningguo Mansion right after marrying in showed how much Jia Liu Shi liked Qin Keqing.
After finishing the morning tea session, Jia Liu Shi looked at Lin Daiyu and said, "Yu'er, you must learn from your sister-in-law how to manage the household!"
"Yu'er understands!"
Speaking with a face full of smiles, Lin Daiyu had become increasingly cheerful since she started practicing martial arts.
"Alright, Brother Jue, you go down first, we are going to play mahjong!"
Waving her hand at Jia Jue, Jia Liu Shi looked at him with disdain.
"Hmm? Mother, do you not need your son to accompany you anymore?"
Looking at Jia Liu Shi, Zhang Cheng asked with some surprise.
"Don't need you, having a daughter-in-law is enough!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng happily, Jia Liu Shi pulled Qin Keqing and said, "Come, come, let's play together!"
Watching them start to play mahjong, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
Time flew, three months passed.
Inside the Ningguo Mansion, Qin Keqing was leading a group of younger sisters to admire flowers and play chess in the courtyard.
Sitting obediently in a corner, Xiangling asked, "Madam, would you like some tea?"
"No need, Xiangling, Madam is not thirsty!"
Looking at Xiangling with a face full of smiles, Qin Keqing patted her head.
Ever since Feng Shi came to the capital, she and Xiangling had been living in the Ningguo Mansion.
Feng Shi helped in the kitchen, while Xiangling served as a maid for Mother Jia Liu Shi, but because Qin Keqing came, she was handed over to her.
Qin Keqing took great care of Xiangling, who had a pitiful background!
In the study, Zhang Cheng was sitting with his legs crossed, opening a fan in his hand with the words "Refined and Elegant" written on it!
Looking at Zhang Cheng's appearance, Liu Bangyou, who had come to the capital for the imperial examinations, looked embarrassed and said, "Marquis! Long time no see!"
"Marquis? Are you even worthy of calling me Marquis? You were given three years, and you actually dared to take three years to get here!" Closing the fan, Zhang Cheng tapped Liu Bangyou's head.
Facing Zhang Cheng's annoyance, Liu Bangyou muttered, "Three years, three years to become a Juren, I've already worked very hard!"
"You actually dare to talk back?"
Looking at Liu Bangyou, Zhang Cheng glared at him.
Watching Zhang Cheng with a twitching mouth, Liu Bangyou said aggrievedly, "Didn't I have no other choice?"
"For this imperial examination, how much confidence do you have?"
Looking at Liu Bangyou, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but reopen the fan, letting the words "Refined and Elegant" reappear.
Looking at Zhang Cheng, Liu Bangyou held up three fingers.
"OK? Hahaha, I knew it, you're still capable!"
Looking at Liu Bangyou with a face full of smiles, Zhang Cheng appeared very gratified.
"Marquis, what OK! I only have a thirty percent chance!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng with annoyance, Liu Bangyou complained.
"Thirty percent? Why don't you just go die!"
Looking at Liu Bangyou in shock, Zhang Cheng was immediately stunned.
He wouldn't even dare say he had a ninety percent chance of hitting the capital of the Ross people, thirty percent? If you don't die, it's going to be very difficult for me!
"Pfft!"
Unable to hold back a laugh, Qingwen, who was serving at the side, immediately realized something, hurriedly covered her mouth, and knelt on the ground, saying, "Marquis, Qingwen didn't mean it, I didn't mean it!"
Originally, after entering the Rongguo Mansion, Qingwen lived a carefree life in Jia Baoyu's room, being pampered by others.
But this was the Ningguo Mansion, and she was in front of Zhang Cheng. Qingwen had even seen how the Lai family was raided and exterminated by him; how could she dare to play the "ambitious" act in front of Zhang Cheng!
Because if she dared to do so, the heads of the Lai family rolling on the ground would be hers next!
"Look at you, you useless thing, even my maid is laughing at you!"
Speaking to Liu Bangyou in front of him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but scold.
"Alright, Qingwen, get up. This guy is useless anyway, it's normal for you to laugh at him!"
Speaking to Qingwen, Zhang Cheng didn't blame her much. After all, Liu Bangyou's "OK" had also made him think it was a sign that there were no problems.
"Yes, Marquis!"
After standing up, Qingwen wiped away cold sweat, thinking she had to change places and couldn't work in the study anymore. It was too dangerous here; the Marquis spoke like he was conducting a research examination, and if you weren't careful, you'd lose your head!
"I'll go help you ask about the exam questions for this year later!"
Looking at Liu Bangyou, Zhang Cheng felt helpless. Because if he really relied on him to pass the Jin Shi exam, he would probably have to wait a few years.
"Marquis, isn't this cheating? I..."
Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Liu Bangyou looked serious.
"Hmm?"
Looking at Liu Bangyou suspiciously, Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes and said, "You don't want it?"
"I want it, how could I not want it? Bringing glory to the ancestors, Marquis! I meant, when can I get it!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng with a face full of smiles, Liu Bangyou smiled exceptionally brightly.
Watching Liu Bangyou with a twitching mouth, Zhang Cheng took a deep breath. Because scholars truly have no shame!
