Chapter 152: Reunion
Pei Yan didn't think about it so much, and readily agreed.
Yu Tang breathed a sigh of relief, got up to say goodbye, and was about to go back to say hello to Lao Anren.
Pei Yan looked very busy, and told Ah Ming to take Yu Tang to the inner courtyard.
Lao Anren was drinking tea with his second daughter-in-law, and when he heard that Yu Tang was here, he was brought by Ah Ming, so he turned his head and smiled at Second Mrs. Pei and said, "It just so happens that you can see it too." This kid has a lively temperament but doesn't make a fuss, and he can be a companion with Adam. ”
The second wife has always respected her mother-in-law, and when she heard this, she immediately smiled and responded "yes", and said softly: "I also heard what Adan said." said that the last time I came to you to make clothes, I met Miss Yu, and Miss Yu picked out a goose-green material for her to make a jacket, and she was a steady girl when she heard it. ”
Lao An people feel sorry for the younger generations, and quietly stew egg custard for the younger generations, which is the love of the Lao An people, but they can't get carried away as juniors, they really don't follow the rules, eat meat, drink soup and wear bright clothes.
Pei Dan of their family is the youngest, she grew up with them since she was a child, she is simple-minded, every time she and a few sisters go out, her heart hangs, for fear that she will do something inappropriate, and every time she has to repeatedly tell those maids who serve by Pei Dan's side to keep an eye on Pei Dan.
If the people around Pei Dan were like Miss Yu, then Pei Dan would have fewer chances of getting into trouble.
While the two were talking, Yu Tang was led in by Aunt Chen.
There was a stranger in the house.
Yu Tang couldn't help but glance at Second Mrs. Pei curiously.
At the age of twenty-seven or eight, with a peach face, willow eyebrows, and a white gilt silver Ruyi cloud pattern tuanhua hangzhou silk gown, he sat there dignified and beautiful, smiling before speaking, reserved and gentle, like a sister next door, which made people feel amiable.
"This is the second wife, the mother of the fifth lady." Lao An introduced Mrs. Pei to Yu Tang.
Yu Tang hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
The second wife stretched out her hand to help Yu Tang, and said with a smile: "I didn't know that Miss Yu came over today, and she didn't bring any meeting gifts...... she said, she thought about it, pulled out an enamel white shell bauhinia hairpin that she wore in her hair and handed it to Yu Tang, "Even if it's a meeting gift." Please also Miss Yu don't dislike it. ”
The redbud is finely worked, and even the stamens are inlaid with white spars the size of sesame seeds, which are not ordinary at first glance.
Yu Tang secretly complained.
Several ladies and ladies of the Pei family are very good, but this relationship is too heavy.
I don't know when she will be able to get out of poverty.
"Thank you, Second Wife!" Yu Tang accepted it with a smile, sat down on the embroidered pier pointed by Lao Anren, and took the initiative to talk about Pei's Mansion with a smile: "I heard that the Li family really brought back a few carts of silver, so I thought that this matter would only be bad for the reputation of Lin'an City, so I went to see the third master." ”
Li Yi is also an official who went out of Lin'an anyway, and if his reputation is bad, it will also affect the reputation of Lin'an people. However, this shouldn't be something Yu Tang is worried about, and it shouldn't be even more so when he runs to tell Pei Yan.
Lao An didn't like it in his heart, but he didn't deny Yu Tang because of this incident, she and Yu Tang didn't have much contact after all, maybe this was just a momentary mistake of the little girl?
"What did the third master say?" She said lightly.
Yu Tang wanted to tell Lao Anren her suspicions, but Lao Anren was obviously not an ordinary woman and child, and if she said it directly, Lao Anren would definitely think that she was nosy or liked to find excuses to make up in front of the third master, so it was better to ask what to say. After a long time, let Lao Anren judge what kind of person she is, but it can make Lao Anren feel more at ease.
"The third master said he knew." Yu Tang smiled, "I thought I hadn't seen you for a few days, so I came over to say hello to you." ”
Lao Anren smiled and thought, sure enough, it is still a little girl's family, and no matter how steady she is, there are also inconsiderate places. She looked at Yu Tang's flowery appearance but heartlessness, and suddenly felt a little pity, and couldn't help but tell Yu Tang to be a man: "If you encounter such a thing in the future, let your father come to the third master, and he will tell the third master." ”
Yu Tang felt that her opportunity had come, and said busily: "I also wanted my father to tell the third master before." It's just that my dad has been very busy these days - didn't Li Duan and Li Ju's family sell part of their Yongye field where they can grow bijiao rice a few days ago? My dad bought some of it with Mr. Wu next door to our house, and the deed just arrived, and my dad and Mr. Wu have been away from home all day these days, and they are busy with this matter all day long! It's not good to disturb his old man, the third master I came to see just now. After saying that, she immediately obediently admitted her mistake, "After Lao Anren said it, I also think that I acted too recklessly, and I will never do this again in the future." ”
After saying that, she also made an oath motion.
The second lady pursed her lips and smiled.
Lao Anren was stunned for a moment and said, "What did you say?" The Li family sold fifty acres of Yongye land?! Do you know how much an acre of land buys? ”
Yu Tang said with a smile: "It is said that it is forty taels of silver per acre of land." Two days ago, my father and Master Wu went to sign the deed, and I was afraid that the Li family would make things difficult, so I invited the third master to come forward to help solve the irrigation matter. My father and Master Wu are very grateful to the third master, and said that they will go to the temple in a few days to put a few sticks of incense on the third master, and ask the Bodhisattva to bless the third master with good health and a long life! ”
At this moment, Lao Anren and the second wife laughed, and Lao Anren laughed so much that tears came out, while taking the handkerchief in the hand of the little maid and wiping the corners of his eyes, he said: "He is young, what kind of incense is there?" Be careful to fold his blessings. ”
Yu Tang was embarrassed.
Pei Yan is a person, he will be confused by his appearance at first sight, and if he contacts it a few times, he will be suppressed by his momentum, whether it is the former or the latter, it is easy for others to ignore his age.
"Then, I'll tell my dad as soon as I get back." She said, "Let him change something else to thank the third master." ”
"Nothing!" Lao Anren still had the smile on his face after laughing happily just now, "He doesn't lack anything." Besides, since he is the head of the family, he has to shelter his neighbors, what is there to be thankful for. As she spoke, her old man talked about how Mrs. Pei benefited the party back then.
This is probably the most unforgettable memory of the deceased husband in Lao An's memory.
Yu Tang listened respectfully, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw a little maid probing her brain outside.
First, she didn't want to interrupt the good memories of Lao Anren, and secondly, she was just a guest, so she didn't have to make a fuss.
Yu Tang sat there as steadily as Mount Tai.
The little maid was so anxious that she probed straight and was finally discovered by the second wife.
The second lady glanced at the maid beside her, and the maid beside her walked out quietly. After a while, he folded back lightly and whispered a few words in the second wife's ear. The second wife looked at Lao Anren, waited for Lao Anren's words to come to an end, and after taking a few sips of tea from the teacup, she said with a smile: "Mother, Mrs. Shen came to visit you." ”
"Mrs. Shen?" Lao Anren asked puzzledly, "Which Mrs. Shen?" ”
The second wife smiled: "It is the wife of Mr. Shen Shanyan, who is a teacher in our county here. ”
Lao Anren frowned when he heard this, and said, "What is she doing here?" I didn't hand over a post beforehand. ”
looks like he doesn't like to see Mrs. Shen very much.
Yu Tang couldn't help but listen.
Mr. Shen has lived alone in Lin'an for many years, and I don't know what kind of person her wife is? I don't know what the relationship between Mrs. Shen and Lao An people is?
The second wife smiled good-naturedly and said, "Didn't my aunt say that she had something to bring you last time?" It's Mrs. Shen. I think Mrs. Shen is half here to deliver something, thinking that you know, so she didn't send another greeting post. He added, "Speaking of which, Mrs. Shen is no one else, so she didn't see you." ”
Lao Anren snorted with some disdain and said, "Let her in!" ”
The second wife got up to greet her.
Yu Tang hurriedly got up and said goodbye.
Lao An left her: "She said a few words and left." I have something to ask you. ”
Yu Tang didn't want to mention the matter of leaving, so he got up and helped Lao Anren refill a cup of tea.
The second wife walked in with the two of them.
Yu Tang looked up and almost threw out the teapot in his hand.
Those flying eyebrows, blazing eyes, isn't it Gu Xi or who?
Her heart pounded.
In her previous life, she had never heard of the relationship between Gu Xi and the Pei family, nor had she seen Gu Xi come to the Pei family to visit Lao Anren, why did she live a new life, and everything changed?
Let's not talk about Jiang Ling's changes, but Gu Chang and Gu Xi, the two siblings, also came to join in the fun!
Fortunately, the attention of the people in the room was focused on Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen, who came in with Gu Xi, and no one noticed that Yu Tang was wrong. Even Gu Xi just glanced at Yu Tang quickly, a look of surprise flashed on his face, and he quickly lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, and Mrs. Shen, who came with her, bent her knees to greet Lao An.
Lao Anren smiled slightly, and couldn't see the complaint just now, and when the two of them got up and sat down, they asked Gu Xi while the maids were toasting refreshments: "Are you the eldest daughter of the second room of the Gu family, Gu Chaoyang's sister?" ”
It can be seen that he has heard of Gu Xi before.
Gu Xi hurriedly got up to answer, but was stopped by Lao Anren: "Sit down and talk." Your mother and I are in-laws, so you don't have to be formal. ”
Gu Xi smiled and sat down generously.
But with Yu Tang's understanding of her, he felt that she was secretly relieved.
It's just to visit an elder, what is she so nervous.
Yu Tang observed Gu Xi quietly.
Lao An asked Gu Xi for a long time, Gu Xi answered very decently, but he was also very cautious, which made Yu Tang feel even more that Gu Xi came with a purpose.
After Lao Anren finished asking, he introduced Yu Tang to Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi, and said with a little protection that Yu Tang was one of her juniors, but did not specifically mention whose girl Yu Tang was.
Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen both greeted Yu Tang.
Mrs. Shen looked to be in her forties, and she was very thin. wore an ordinary bright blue makeup jacket, two gold hairpins in her hair, and a pair of gold bracelets on her hands. Either because her expression was very serious, or because she was influenced by Lao Anren just now, although she treated Yu Tang politely, Yu Tang still felt that her face was a little harsh and she was not a good person to get along with.
Gu Xi made her feel a little surprised.
In her previous life, Gu Xi was known for being dignified and polite, but when they first met in this life, Gu Xi asked her with a playful smile, "How old are you this year?" Do I want to call you sister or sister? ”
is not at all like her in her previous life.
