Chapter 275: Regret
When Gu Chang thought of this, he inevitably thought of Yu Tang.
When Yin Hao proposed marriage to him, he was indeed very surprised.
He never wanted to marry the daughter of a wealthy family.
First, his external image has always been indifferent to fame and fortune and does not seek wealth and nobility, and secondly, he was afraid of being affected by his wife and family, so he was forced to stand in line when the second prince and the third prince were competing for the crown.
But Yin Hao's words touched him.
Yin Hao asked him: "Do you think the Gu family can support you to become a third-grade master?" ”
The Gu family can't do it.
Although his uncle is just a talent, he is extremely sophisticated, such a person is a talent in anyone's family, but he was forced by his father to divide the sect.
He hesitated.
Miss Yu's smiling face flashed in her mind again.
It's so beautiful that you can't help but smile.
But with such talent, if she is in a family with big rules, she would not dare to accept her as a concubine.
is so good that it is easy for wives and concubines to fight each other and harm their children and grandchildren.
Those who dare to accept her as a concubine are either vassal kings and nobles, or they don't care about the fight in the inner house.
Gu Chang gave in.
In the final analysis, it is because the Yin family is too strong.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for him to marry the Yin family, so he never thought of marrying the daughter of a wealthy family, right?
Gu Chang asked himself, shaking his head with a wry smile.
Perhaps this is the best outcome.
He married the daughter of the Yin family, and Pei Yan accepted Miss Yu as a concubine.
Maybe only people like Pei Yan can do whatever they want.
He is at home and has the time and energy to balance the relationship between his wife and concubine.
Gu Chang took a sip of tea fiercely.
Maybe that's a good thing.
Pei Yan doesn't have so much effort to care about the outside affairs.
And he can also devote himself to competing for a high and low career.
Since you have decided to marry a wife, you should manage your marriage well, and no matter what thoughts you have in the past, you should forget about it and be good to your wife without distractions.
Husband and wife, but also partners.
If you don't care, you will capsize.
If this ship capsizes, it will hurt the children.
Without inheritance, what is the point of his life's struggles and struggles?
What Gu Chang desires is not only to leave a name in history, but also to leave a reputation on the family tree.
Gu Chang pushed open the window, looked at the rising sun outside, and let out a long breath, feeling that no matter how bad his life was in the future, it would not be worse than now.
He shouted to Gao Sheng and said, "Let's go back!" ”
The marriage with the Yin family had to be done by his father, and he had better repair a book, send it to the capital as soon as possible, and euphemistically explain to Sun Gao that this was the order of his parents......
As for Pei Yan, who made Gu Chang say that he was no longer envious, but in fact he would often be compared to him, he sat there refreshed and listened to the report of the four stewards while having breakfast: "I have already ordered someone to send the things that Miss Yu bought back to Lin'an, and we will help deal with the bills here." Previously, because of your suggestion, Mrs. Yang San changed her route to visit Mrs. Qin, so that their return to Beijing should be delayed for two or three days. Speaking of this, he hesitated for a moment before he said: "Master Li's carriage and horses have already traveled to Jinhua, and they will arrive in Hangzhou in a few days, are you waiting for Mrs. Yang San and others to return to Beijing before returning to Lin'an?" Or have you seen Lord Li and then returned to Lin'an? ”
Qin Wei, the outgoing political envoy of Zhejiang, and the second wife's maiden brother used to be a colleague of the Guozijian, because of this incense, the Pei family had a heart-to-heart relationship, and took care of the Pei family when he was in office. And Li Guang, who is about to take up his new post, has been an official in the Yunnan-Guizhou area, and he has been promoted all the way up from the county. The reason why he was able to be the political envoy of Zhejiang this time was also a coincidence, and he picked up a leak under the wrestling of several parties, and the Pei family did not have a direct friendship with him. In this case, if Pei Yan can stay here and wait for Li Guang to take office, and Qin Wei will thread the needle from it, I believe that Li Guang will be very happy, and he will not easily offend the Pei family when he is idle.
Who knew that Pei Yan snorted disdainfully and said, "Don't worry about him." He relied on the credit accumulated by suppressing bandits, and he was not on the same road as our family. ”
The four stewards were taken aback.
There are many toasts on the Yun and Gui sides, and most of the so-called bandits are people in the cottages.
He couldn't help but say worriedly: "Since this is the case, then should we ...... more?"
Pei Yan felt that the mentality of the four stewards was wrong, and Zhengse said to him: "Although there is a saying of 'destroying the door and assassinating the history', there is also a saying called 'the official of the yamen who beats the iron and the flowing water'." ”
If Li Guang wants to play Yungui's set, the scholars in Jiangnan may not be able to eat it.
The fourth steward knew that Pei Yan was very knowledgeable, otherwise the old lady would not have entrusted the Pei family to Pei Yan before he died. He didn't say anything more, but smiled with complete trust: "Then I'll go and prepare a boat for you." When the time comes, bring Miss Yu back as well. He also helped Pei Yan explain, "Miss Yu is a guest to our family, and since we have invited someone to come, we should also send them back safely." ”
Pei Yan suddenly felt that this fourth steward was also a talent, and he could be a chief steward.
Much stronger than Hu Xingke.
Pei Yan glanced at the four stewards.
The Pei family only has three positions as chief stewards.
If you want to mention the four stewards as the general manager, you have to pick one of them. No matter how you look at it, it's Hu Xing who is being masturbed.
Or, one more steward?!
It's easy to add a chief steward, but I'm afraid that the future suzerain will follow suit, so I will casually increase the chief steward and raise some people who eat idle meals.
It's better to masturbate Hu Xing.
Let others see, the Pei family is a capable person who works more, and works harder.
However, Hu Xing took Imperial Doctor Yang to see Mrs. Yu, and listened to the errand in front of Lao Anren, diligently, but it was also so-so.
Why don't you let Hu Xing go to serve Lao Anren?
can let Hu Xing continue to lead the monthly case of the chief steward.
In this way, it can be regarded as retaining Hu Xing's dignity and promoting one more person.
The more Pei Yan thought about it, the more feasible he felt.
It's just that you have to think about how to tell Lao Anren about this matter.
Pei Yan made up his mind, his face became pleasant, thinking about whether to meet Yu Tang, and he could also take the opportunity to discuss with her about returning to Lin'an.
It's just that before he could get up, Yin Hao came over.
He has already discussed with Gu Chang, quickly cut through the mess, tomorrow the sect master of the Gu family will personally come to the door to propose to Gu Chang, he wants Pei Yan to help him accompany the guests of the Gu family.
Pei Yan didn't want to get involved in Gu Chaoyang's affairs.
He glared and said, "Are you mistaken?" My own marriage has not yet been settled, and you actually asked me to accompany you? I don't do it! ”
Yin Hao was half angry and said, "You said that there is anyone else who is suitable besides you, right?" Speaking of which, you are also Gu Chaoyang's elder, when people come to your house to propose marriage, you should come forward to entertain them with reason and affection, right? ”
Speaking of this, Pei Yan's eyes widened, and he said, "You two families are married, why do you come to my house to propose marriage and treat guests at my house?" Are there not enough good restaurants in Hangzhou? Or is any of you short of silver? When you and Gu Chaoyang talked about this, didn't either of you feel that something was wrong? ”
Yin Hao said: "Didn't I come to Hangzhou City quietly?" ”
Pei Yan sneered: "It's just to cover your ears and steal the bell." You think you really didn't know you were coming! Don't kid yourself. What time did you book for tomorrow? I'm going to book you a restaurant. Banquet money, I'm out. It's just a congratulatory gift from me, an elder, to Gu Chaoyang. ”
Yin Hao looked at him like that, not like a joke, and said puzzledly: "Gu Chaoyang didn't offend you, right?" Why do you talk about him and look like he's incompatible? ”
Pei Yan was indeed upset when he saw Gu Chang, but he couldn't show it in front of Yin Hao at this time. Otherwise, Yin Hao asked him, "Since Gu Chaoyang is not good, how can you recommend him to be the son-in-law of our Yin family", and finally the marriage between the two families fell through, it would be troublesome.
He said: "I don't want others to pull me into it when they talk about Sun Gao-you are an official in the court, and you will be promoted step by step in the future, I can only guard the ancestral industry in Lin'an City and be my squire." Some people, you can afford to provoke, but I can't afford to provoke. Don't drag me into the water. ”
Yin Hao suddenly patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, as long as you still call me 'Second Brother Yin', I won't let others bully your Pei family." Isn't it just a Li Guang? I promise he won't dare touch a single grass in your house. ”
Of course, Pei Yan wouldn't be really afraid of Li Guang.
As long as his second brother recovers, the Pei family will have someone to talk to in the court, he is just looking for an excuse and doesn't want to help Gu Chang, even if it is some trivial things that are insignificant, he is not willing. So no matter how touching Yin Hao's words were, it was impossible to move him.
He ignored Yin Hao, and directly called the four stewards, asking him to go to the best restaurant in Hangzhou to book the best banquet, and said: "You have done the matter, remember to tell the Gu family." ”
A trace of worry flashed in the eyes of the fourth steward when he heard this, so he promised in a low voice and retreated.
Yin Hao couldn't stop it.
Pei Yan patted Yin Hao on the shoulder, quite like an elder teaching a lesson, and said earnestly: "If you don't believe me, it's good for you to ask Mrs. Yang San." See if I'm doing the right thing or you're doing it right. ”
When Yin Hao heard this, he immediately wilted.
He has been pampered since he was a child, and he has aunts and sisters to help take care of everything, although he is the sect leader of the Yin family, he is not good at handling these relationships.
Pei Yan didn't let him go, and continued: "If you still can't believe it, just go and ask Master Tao." He won't lie to you, will he? ”
Yin Hao didn't want to ask anyone at all, so he directly resigned himself to his fate: "That's okay." I'm going to talk to my aunt. If I had invited a matchmaker, my aunt would have to come forward. ”
Pei Yan said: "As long as it's not at my house." ”
Yin Hao shook his head helplessly and went to Mrs. Yang San.
Mrs. Yang San said with a smile after knowing this: "I'm still thinking about your meeting with the Gu family tomorrow, and I always feel that something is inappropriate." Pei Yaoguang made such a fuss, and it was really this reason - when our two families said that they were close, it was reasonable to worship the ancestors and let the ancestors know. This is the Pei family's mansion, how can we worship our ancestors in the Pei family's mansion? I think Pei Yaoguang did the right thing, not only can we not receive the people of the Gu family here, but it is best not to pay tribute to the Pei family. I think we might as well buy a house. When Ah Zhi comes out of the pavilion, she can also be her dowry, and when we come to Hangzhou in the future, we can also have a place to stay. ”
Yin Hao's eyes lit up, he high-fived and said "good", and immediately asked people to invite the four stewards and asked him to help buy a house: "The size is not limited, the location should be good, and the travel should be convenient." It's better to be closer to you, so that you can take care of it in the future. ”
The fourth steward didn't think much about it, said hello to Pei Yan, and sent someone to call a familiar tooth man to come over and help the Yin family manage it.
