Hu Xing was frightened into a cold sweat by Shu Qing's words.

He only thought about how to do this well, let the Pei family be in the limelight, and let himself return to the list of people worthy of Pei Yan's trust, but he forgot that the most taboo thing for the Pei family is to be in the limelight.

Shu Qing is not a person who talks casually.

"Thank you, thank you!" Hu Xing said repeatedly, "When Mr. Shu is free one day, let's go have a drink together." There are no famous restaurants and liquor stores in Lin'an City that I don't know. ”

Shu Qing is not from Lin'an, but followed Pei Yan back from the capital, where is the specific person, and what experience he has, Hu Xing is not clear.

Including the bookkeeper Chen Qi and the coachman Zhao Zhen, he is not familiar with it.

Shu Qing smiled, said "yes" politely, and went to work on himself.

Hu Xing stood under the shade of a tree for a long time before leaving.

Xiao Tong's shopkeeper was even smoother than Yu Tang expected. On the third day when she met the shopkeeper Tong, there was news from the pawnshop that the shopkeepers of the Tong family had found two incense-making masters, one was from Fuyang, surnamed Xun, over sixty years old, and it was okay to come, but he had to bring a family and a dozen of his apprentices to come over; There is also a person surnamed Mi, a native of Wuchang, in his early forties, who is also going to bring a family of four and two apprentices over. When the shopkeeper Xiao Tong introduced the two masters, he said: "Each has its own pros and cons. Master Xun is old boss is gone, and the new owner is going to change careers and gave him a sum of money for retirement. But his sons, sons-in-law, and apprentices all learned this, and he had to find a way out for them, and he might not make incense himself. As for Master Mi, when he was in the prime of life, he went to Jiangnan because he was at odds with his old club. Which one to choose, please ask Miss Yu to give an idea. ”

Yu Tang thought that Pei Lao'an asked a few Miss Pei to take charge of this matter, so he asked people to bring a letter to a few young ladies of the Pei family to ask for their opinions. Who knew that several young ladies of the Pei family were all idle for the Buddha Bathing Festival, and the second lady simply said: "Since this matter has been handed over to Sister Yu, I will bother Sister Yu to make up her mind." ”

A sense of losing hands.

Yu Tang smiled bitterly.

really responded to that sentence, whoever came up with the idea did it, how did this matter become her own business.

Fortunately, the shopkeeper of Xiao Tong is also the same as the shopkeeper of Tong, he is an open-minded person, not only did not laugh at her, but also comforted her: "It's okay, we often encounter such things." You just need to tell a few Miss Pei the reasons you chose, so that a few Miss Pei can have a reference for this kind of thing in the future. This is also the reason why Lao An people let a few Miss Pei take charge of the affairs - they will all marry into a rich family in the future, will they really care about these things? Even if there is something, the in-laws have husbands and uncles, the mother-in-law has brothers and sisters, and some people give them ideas. Lao An people are also afraid that they will not have much knowledge, so they pull them around here and there. ”

Yu Tang thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he said to Xiao Tong's shopkeeper: "I want to choose that rice master." ”

Xiao Tong's shopkeeper was stunned.

Most people usually choose Master Xun.

Master Mi is at odds with the original owner, which is very criticized.

Yu Tang said: "The two you are looking for are well-known local incense masters, it should not be difficult for Master Nami to find a way to make a living, but he would rather leave his hometown, obviously he doesn't want to fight with the original owner, it can be seen that this person still has a bit of a bottom line, and the original owner is not in harmony, maybe there is another insider." And what about Master Xun, his son, son-in-law and apprentices all followed him to learn how to make incense, he is over sixty years old, the new owner is going to change careers, his family and apprentices can't find anything good to do, and he needs to come forward to help with the work. It can be seen that if it weren't for his sons, sons-in-law, and apprentices, who didn't earn money or anything, and didn't learn his means of making incense, he cherished himself with a broom and didn't pass on his skills to his heirs. Even if such a person were invited by us, I am afraid that he would not really teach the masters and laymen of Ku'an Temple to make incense. However, the specific temperament of the two still has to be contacted. ”

Xiao Tong's shopkeeper nodded secretly.

He also said this to test Yu Tang. If Yu Tang trusts him, he will believe the information he provides; If you don't trust him, you will only believe what she sees with her own eyes. This is related to what kind of attitude he will treat Yu Tang in the future.

Now for the best.

Xiao Tong's shopkeeper is no longer hidden. He said, "I want to invite both masters to come and try it." Speaking of this, he also smiled at Yu Tang before continuing, "Just help us make a batch of incense sticks and incense sticks." ”

This is to take the opportunity of the trial to let the two masters help Kuan Temple to do things!

Yu Tang pursed his lips and smiled, "It's feasible!" ”

Xiao Tong's shopkeeper's eyes also narrowed.

The two tacitly reached an agreement, and each felt that the other was a smart and flexible person who should be able to work well together in the future.

Soon, the two masters arrived in Lin'an.

During this period, Yu Tang also went to a second date.

Like the previous times, Yu Tang still didn't feel anything. Yu Wen felt that this kid was quite honest, but Chen was picky that others were not tall enough to be worthy of Yu Tang.

Yu Wen also had a rare fight with Chen: "When you get married, isn't the most important thing to learn your character?" ”

Chen said: "But that kid is too short. Do you want to have a very short grandson in the future? ”

may be because the people in the Yu family are not too tall, so they have a certain obsession with height.

Like Yu Yuan, he felt satisfied when he saw Xiang's. But in the eyes of outsiders, the Xiang family is tall and big, and they are not white, and in terms of appearance, marrying Yu Yuan is a bit high.

Yu Wen immediately fell silent.

Yu Tang breathed a sigh of relief.

She felt that she still had a lot to do, and she didn't want to get married so soon.

According to the agreement between Xiao Tong's shopkeeper and the two incense masters, as soon as the two incense masters settled down in the two farmhouses near Ku'an Temple, he personally sent the two masters' carriage and horse fares over, and said very euphemistically that it was not that he didn't believe in the craftsmanship of the two incense masters, but that the owner liked to "pull out the mule or the horse to take out for a walk", and he, the little shopkeeper, could only act according to his orders. also coaxed the two masters, "You must come up with the best craftsmanship and make the best incense, otherwise I, the recommender, will not be able to give an explanation to the owner."

The two incense masters naturally responded well.

Xiao Tong's shopkeeper sent the spices that had been prepared and went to Ku'an Temple.

The presiding master of Ku'an Temple has been in accordance with what Xiao Tong's shopkeeper said, through the observation of these days, he has found more than a dozen monks who are clever in his hands and feet, and when he saw Xiao Tong's shopkeeper coming, he directly handed over the person to Xiao Tong's shopkeeper, and said according to the instructions of Xiao Tong's shopkeeper before: "In order to make our Ku'an Temple come out, the Pei family not only funded the lecture conference of Zhaoming Temple, but also invited two masters to help us make incense in Ku'an Temple, but we ourselves can't stand idly by." When you go, you must help the two masters well. ”

The attitude of the two masters towards these laymen also determines who they will eventually hire.

Within a few days, both masters made a footbasin-sized incense stick and an arm-thick incense stick. The shopkeeper of Xiao Tong invited Yu Tang and several young ladies of the Pei family to try the incense to see if the incense would be extinguished or broken in the middle when it was lit. This is the reason why the incense stick the size of the foot plate and the incense stick with the thickness of the arm are not easy to make.

Of course, it is impossible for Yu Tang and the young lady of the Pei family to really wait until the incense and incense sticks are burned - it will take a few days and nights. It's just that when Xiao Tong's shopkeeper sent the incense over, he went to see it, and then found a hall to light the incense and smell the fragrance, and then ran together to whisper, and the maid who guarded the hall told them whether these Buddha incense was good or bad.

"What is Sister Yu going to wear that day?" This is what the fourth lady is most concerned about, her face is full of excitement, and she said, "I made three sets of clothes, and the second sister and the third sister were perfunctory to me, saying that it was all right." Wait for Sister Yu to help me take a look. I'll wear whatever you say looks good. ”

The fifth lady said angrily: "Sister Yu, don't listen to her." We all said that she was good in that pink suit, but that pink suit looked good in pearl jewelry. In the end, she made a new step shake of the golden phoenix bead, and she wanted to wear this step to Zhaoming Temple, and she was entangled in what clothes to wear there. She said, inviting Yu Tang, "My sister hasn't been here for some days, the peony flowers in our backyard are about to bloom, are you free these days?" I'll ask my mother-in-law to send you a letter when the time comes, and you can come and enjoy the flowers! This year, I have added a few new green peonies to my home, and this is the first time I have seen them. ”

Yu Tangqi said: "Doesn't the third master not like flowers? ”

The fifth lady snorted dissatisfiedly: "Even if the third uncle doesn't like it anymore, he can still manage it in my grandmother's yard!" The green peony was sent by the Song family, and my grandmother liked it and rewarded my mother with a pot. However, my mother was afraid that she would not be able to raise it well, so she still kept it in my grandmother's flower room. ”

Yu Tang knew the relationship between the Song family and the Pei family.

She responded with a smile: "Then remember to ask your mother-in-law to tell me when the time comes, I have only heard of green peony, and I have not seen it yet." ”

The third young lady sneered: "The Song family has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, what are they going to do this time?" ”

The fifth lady hesitated: "It shouldn't be fine, right?" The people who came only said that the Song family had built two new big boats on the side of Taihu Lake, and said that when the big boats were launched, they wanted to invite their grandmother to come over and have a look. It's not a big deal, is it? “

The third lady warned the fifth lady: "Anyway, we have to be more mindful of what their family does, and try not to move around if we can." He sighed again, "Grandmother is good at everything, but this relative is not good." ”

Yu Tang smiled when he heard this, and said: "The emperor still has three poor relatives, and you can't expect all of your in-laws to have good character!" ”

The third lady's face turned red and said, "I just think that the Song family is too unparticular about doing things." As for how not to pay attention to it, the third lady didn't say anything more, and Yu Tang didn't want to ask much, but the Song family built a big boat, which left a deep impression on Yu Tang.

I don't know if Jiang Chao is safe when he goes to sea this time.

If they can return safely, the Yu family will be lucky.

Yu Tang thought in his heart, but the second young lady's complaint came from his ears: "Don't look like you're competing for beauty, okay?" On the day of the Buddha Bathing Festival, we can only watch the excitement in the wing, what do we do if we wear so well? ”

What do you mean?

Everyone's eyes looked at the second lady.

The second lady said, "Don't you all know? The charter of the Buddha Bathing Festival came out, and the donations before the lecture were not brought forward, and the things were handed over to Zhaoming Temple in advance, and when the time came, the monks of Zhaoming Temple sang and drank the roster. All the ladies were not allowed to go out to see the excitement. ”
