Chapter 267: Night Run
Pei Yan was very unhappy in his heart, he felt that he should ask Yu Tang what he meant, and instinctively felt that it might not be good to ask about this matter at this time, and he faintly felt that he seemed to have something very important that he hadn't done, but what was it, he couldn't remember it for a while.
He was pacing back and forth in the house, and a small servant came in and said that Gu Chaoyang wanted to see him.
Pei Yan's eyebrows locked into the word "Sichuan".
This Gu Chaoyang, if he doesn't come early or late, he comes every time he has something.
Pei Yan sat on the Taishi chair with a calm face, and said sharply, "Please let him in."
Gu Chaoyang strode in.
He had just returned from outside, and he was still dressed in the clothes he had gone to meet a visitor. The royal blue five-bat flower is straight, the blue belt, the garcinia yellow embroidered green bamboo purse, the bright color reflects his skin like beautiful jade, and his demeanor is beautiful.
Pei Yan subconsciously frowned again.
Gu Chaoyang and Deng Xuesong had a good conversation, and achieved the purpose of meeting today, they were in a good mood, thinking about the mess of things on Pei Yan's side, they must be anxious, and naturally they would not worry about anything with Pei Yan.
He sat opposite Pei Yan with a smile, and when the maid served refreshments, he said, "Is it going well over there?" ”
At the beginning, they agreed that Wang Qihe would be in charge of Sun Gao's side, but Pei Yan would be in charge of Jiangnan's side.
Although he didn't know what the progress of Pei Yan's side was, Yin Hao hadn't left yet, which meant that the matter had not yet been decided, and the matter on Pei Yan's side was not over.
Pei Yan looked at his sassy eyebrows, and suddenly remembered that he had forgotten something just now!
He forgot to ask people to check when Yutang was and how he met Gu Chang......
Pei Yan suddenly felt that Gu Chaoyang was like a peacock with the screen open, regardless of the occasion, he opened the screen indiscriminately, for fear that others would not know how full of ambition he was at this time.
"What's wrong with me?" He said slowly, but his muscles tightened, like an arrow on a string, ready to shoot at any time, and the more this time, the more he behaved lightly, even open-minded - he didn't want to waste his feelings with his opponent, "Everyone has discussed it before, just act according to their respective division of labor, even if it doesn't go well, it's only temporary." ”
Oh, yes! This matter has developed to this point, everyone can only push forward with all their might, can they still regret it and quit? !
Gu Chaoyang didn't say anything.
Pei Yan said: "What are you looking for me?" ”
He knew what Gu Chaoyang was doing, and he also knew why Gu Chaoyang was doing this. Looking at Gu Chaoyang's appearance, it should be very smooth, and now I come to him, won't I want to go further with Deng Xuesong, make an appointment with him and Yin Hao, and invite Deng Xuesong to dinner, right?
Pei Yan didn't really want to go.
He didn't want anyone to know that he was also involved in this.
Although there is no impermeable wall in the world, there is still a big difference between admitting it clearly and letting others guess.
Who knows that Gu Chang smiled and said: "I saw Miss Yu of Yu Xiucai's family yesterday, I heard that their family is quite familiar with yours, can you find a mother-in-law who is familiar with Miss Yu, I have something I want to inquire about." ”
Pei Yan's hairs immediately stood up, like a lion who had violated his territory, and his eyes became sharp and cold: "What are you asking Miss Yu to do?" Our two families are good friends, you can ask me if you have anything. ”
Gu Chang obviously felt Pei Yan's rejection, but he thought that Pei Yan had misunderstood him to inquire about the inner house, and he didn't take it to heart, and because of Pei Yan's attitude, he felt that this matter was indeed not suitable to ask Pei Yan, thought about it, and said, "If you don't know too well, forget it." When I have the opportunity, I will ask Pei Laoan that the same is true. ”
What does Gu Chang mean?
One moment impatient, the next moment slow, what is he going to do?
Pei Yan looked at Gu Chang with a little vigilance in his eyes.
Gu Chang smiled, feeling that he was indeed too eager.
He changed the topic, talked to Pei Yan about the old days, and got up to leave.
Pei Yan looked at his departing back, and a bad feeling faintly appeared in his heart.
But who can disturb him?
Yu Tang's face suddenly appeared in his mind.
Pei Yan was taken aback.
Yes, will it be Yutang?
Only then did Pei Yan feel that when he was talking to Gu Chang just now, his people had been tense.
He remembered what his father had said about him.
He said that he had beastly instincts compared to his two brothers.
He had been unhappy about it before.
But later many facts proved that he did have such an intuition.
Pei Yan was very uneasy.
He was circling around the house.
Yin Hao came to see him, and when he saw his appearance, he was stunned and said, "What's wrong with you?" I just heard that Gu Chaoyang came to see you? Is something going on on his side? ”
"Nope!" Pei Yan didn't want Yin Hao to know what he was thinking, he didn't even want people to notice Yu Tang, he asked Yin Hao, "What are you looking for me?" ”
Yin Hao said: "Tao Qing arrived, he settled at the Qingfeng Inn and asked us to meet at the Qingfeng Inn in the evening." ”
Qingfeng Inn is an inn opened by the Tao family in Hangzhou, which shows that Tao Qing is not ready to let others know that he has come to Hangzhou.
Pei Yan said unhappily: "The two of us go there together to be more eye-catching, right?" If he really doesn't want people to know, he will go to Lingyin Temple to settle down, and we will go to Lingyin Temple to burn incense after meeting Wang Qibao tomorrow, and we can also borrow the meditation room of the host master. ”
Yin Hao smiled: "None of us can compare to you when it comes to these ghosts. I've always been curious, you said that you, too, are a child of a family, and grew up reading sages, but when you do these things, you are naturally more flexible than us......"
Pei Yan interrupted Yin Hao's words with a straight face, and said, "Whether you are going to see you tonight or tomorrow at Lingyin Temple, you hurry up and get an idea." I'm young, listen to my brothers! ”
"Tut-tut!" Yin Hao didn't believe it and said, "I'll listen to you." We'll see you tomorrow at Lingyin Temple. ”
It just so happened that they could encourage Yu Tang and them to go to Lingyin Temple in advance.
I still have to ask how she knew Gu Chang.
Pei Yan pulled his legs and was about to go to see Yu Tang, walked to the door, and suddenly stopped.
No, he can't just go like that!
Last time he couldn't hold back his temper and asked her about it, and he offended her. He finally thought of a way to compensate her, but if he made her unhappy because of this incident, he couldn't think of any other way to compensate for it for a while. For the sake of insurance, he still endured it a little longer, and waited until he arrived at Lingyin Temple tomorrow.
Pei Yan turned back.
However, why didn't Yu Tang send someone to deliver a letter to her father?
She's not like that!
Pei Yan began to dwell on this matter again.
He thought about it and thought about it, but he couldn't figure it out.
He felt that he had to ask for advice.
Zhou Zijin likes to be nosy the most, and he has encountered many things, so he is the best candidate. It's a pity that he went to the capital.
Gu Chaoyang, that's definitely not going to work!
Pei Yan snorted lightly.
Only Yin Hao was left in this courtyard.
But Yin Hao can't even handle those things in his own house, even if he takes the idea, it is probably a bad idea.
Or...... Tao Qing!
He is generous and kind, treats himself like a brother, and most importantly, he is honest and sincere, even if he makes a joke, he will not say it, let alone laugh at himself.
When Pei Yan thought about this, his heart was like grass growing, and he couldn't calm down for a moment.
He first sent someone to call Qingyuan over, and asked her to find a way to persuade Yu Tang to go to Lingyin Temple tomorrow to make incense, and then changed his clothes, drove lightly, and quietly went to Qingfeng Inn.
Tao Qing had already rested, and when he heard that Pei Yan was coming, he was scared out of a cold sweat, put on a coat and shoes and ran out, personally welcomed Pei Yan to the hall and sat down, and retired the people who served on the left and right, while personally going to make tea for Pei Yan, he asked him: "But what happened?" ”
Pei Yan sat down and looked at Tao Qing's thin face in the dim light, only then did he realize that he was ridiculous, touched his nose, and didn't know what to say for a long time.
Tao Qing saw that his expression showed a little embarrassment, and he sighed in his heart, thinking that it was indeed a bit reluctant to compete for the governor of Jiangxi with Tao An's qualifications, in addition to needing the help of the Zhang family, it is estimated that he would have to ask the Li family, the Shen family and Jiang Hua to help, and it was Yin Hao and Pei Yan who came up with the idea to support Tao An's position.
But he has always been calm, and he has experienced strong winds and waves, knowing that some things depend on chance, although he is a little disappointed, he does not have too many obsessions. What's more, this is also Pei Yan's favor to their Tao family, so he can't make Pei Yan embarrassed.
After he poured tea for Pei Yan, he also took a box of dim sum and put it on the table, saying, "This is a dim sum from Guangzhou, and I specially asked someone to prepare it for Qingfeng Inn." Many of the guests who have stayed here have become repeat customers for this snack, so you can try it and see if it suits your appetite. ”
Pei Yan thought that Yu Tang's family always seemed to make dim sum for others, and their family must like to make dim sum, so he said, "Then you bring me some back, I'll ...... Give it to those around you. ”
Tao Qing was afraid that he would be polite to him, so when he heard this, he happily instructed his personal servant to wrap snacks, and said: "You and A'an have always had a good personal relationship, and you are a few years younger than A'an, I treat you as a little brother in the family." If you have anything to say, just say it directly - brothers, don't be so polite, and don't have so many scruples! ”
Pei Yan looked at Tao Qing's calm eyes, his mouth was dry, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Tao Qing didn't rush him, but just refilled him with tea at the right time.
Pei Yan drank three cups of tea in a row, feeling that even if he delayed like this, he would only stay up for time, so he simply closed his eyes and told Tao Qing about Yu Tang. However, he was still a little vigilant, and he didn't tell Tao Qing that he was going to kick the Song family out, but only introduced a big business to the Yu family.
Tao Qing opened his mouth wide, and he didn't know what to say for a long time.
He cautiously asked Pei Yan, "Does Lao An know Miss Yu?" ”
"Yes!" Pei Yan was puzzled and told Tao Qing how Yu Tang was liked by the Pei family.
Tao Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at Pei Yan, who looked ignorant and ignorant, he decided to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
Because even if this matter needs to be clarified, it should not be picked out by him.
What's more, Miss Yu came from a humble background, and whether Pei Yan was willing to marry Miss Yu regardless of the world's eyes is also unpredictable.
He smiled: "I heard what you said, Miss Yu doesn't look like she is discouraged. Could it be that Miss Yu didn't connect the two things at all? ”
