I have never seen such a Yu Tang Pei Yan.

Depressed, like a flower that has been blown by a storm, wilting.

Pei Yan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart when he looked at it.

He still likes to see her radiant appearance, especially when she says that other people's gossip is shining, her cheeks are as bright as peaches and plums, and even her eyes are flowing with joy, bright and dazzling, like a ray of sunshine in winter, which makes people feel a little happy when they look at it.

This may be why he moved the name of the Yu family to another account book when he saw the list of rituals, and even when he heard that something had happened to the Li family, he was still speculating whether Miss Yu would run to him to gloat like last time if she heard about it.

Of course, he knew he was wrong to think so.

But Miss Yu is just a little girl, and she is still a woman who has only read a copy of "The Book of Filial Piety", so she doesn't have to ask her like those Shilin students.

Who knew that the matter of the Li family had quietly spread, but there was still no movement on Miss Yu's side.

At that time, he also asked Ah Ming to check whether the Mid-Autumn Festival gift from Yu's house had been delivered, and he thought that Miss Yu might gossip with him when she came to their house to send a gift to him. I never thought that their family's Boxing arranged the Yu family in the first batch, and they had already sent it over, and the Yu family's return gift has not been sent back to this day.

Pei Yan thought that maybe the number of gifts in each family was different, and many people liked to give gifts only when they were about to celebrate the festival to show their sincerity.

He put the matter behind him for the time being.

It wasn't until he went to visit Shen Shanyan today that he accidentally saw Wei Xiaochuan when he went out of the county school, and he suddenly became interested and made a special trip to the Yu family, only then did he know that there was such a big thing in the Yu family.

Who has the heart to give a Boxing gift!

No wonder he hasn't received a return gift from the Yu family.

Pei Yan thought, angry and funny. The angry thing is that at this juncture, Yu Tang is still helping the person who is called Jiang Chao to speak, the funny thing is that she is standing here with her head down, without the usual little flying, I am afraid that it is the first time in her life to bow her head like this, right?

"Okay, I'll ask about it." He said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, you just need to happily accompany your family for the holiday." Over there in Ningbo Mansion, our family also has some small business, and when the time comes, I will ask people to inquire to see if there is anything left in the Wang family, and then let them make up for your family first. ”

The Pei family also has a business in Ningbo?

Yu Tang looked up at Pei Yan and blinked.

Why is there their business everywhere?

Where is there no business for their family?

Pei Yan thought in his heart, the risk is big, and the benefit is big. What's more, the Wu family's shareholding is Master Wu's own will, and the Yu family can ignore him at all. But he understands that people like Master Yu would rather suffer losses themselves than let others suffer. In addition, the silver in the auction is free, and it is not distressing to spend it, and the hands are more generous.

But he didn't want to think about it, he didn't have any family background, and he wanted to leave the girl at home to recruit a son-in-law, and not save more money, how could he recruit a better son-in-law.

Yuwen is not a reliable one either.

Pei Yan let out a long breath, a little worried about the girl in front of him, what a pity it would be if it was delayed by his father and brother at home.

Yu Tang just wanted to explain to Pei Yan, so that he could forgive his family for not returning the gift to the Pei family in time, but he didn't expect this matter to be involved with Pei Yan again.

She hurriedly said, "It's not a good thing, so don't interfere." Since Master Jiang promised that the recovered silver would be returned to our family first, he would definitely return it to our family. We'll wait and see. ”

So believe in this river tide?

Pei Yan was noncommittal.

It would be best if Jiang Chao could return some of the silver to the Yu family, but if it was just to perfunctory the Yu family, it would be okay to let Miss Yu buy a lesson.

He said, "If that's the case, then I'll go back first." When Master Yu comes back, I will come to visit him again when I have time. ”

Yu Tang could feel Pei Yan's kindness.

Although he didn't speak well most of the time, his mind was good.

She naturally thanked and thanked, and sent Pei Yan to the sedan chair, until the sedan chair was carried out of the back alley and there was no trace of her, so she went home. It's just that as soon as she got home, she hurriedly ran to Mrs. Chen: "Are all the rituals prepared by our family for the Pei family ready?" Did Daddy say when he would send it over? ”

If Chen's health is not good, these things at home will be handed over to Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen is cutting ginseng slices, preparing to stew an old hen for Chen's body to replenish her body. Hearing this, she smiled and put the cut ginseng slices into the celadon bowl at hand, and then said with a smile: "The master said, that Chengxin paper is too rare, and it can't be repaid with any gift from the Pei family, so it's better to send some ordinary things such as moon cakes and fabrics." This time I was in too much of a hurry, even if I put my mind to it, I couldn't think of any good gifts for a while. I can only wait until the Spring Festival to prepare for the Boxing Festival. ”

Also, her mom is still sick.

Yu Tang nodded again and again, watching his father put the four boxes of various moon cakes and two silk materials into the gift box, and asked Yu Yuan to send them to Pei's mansion.

Silk is not rare, but the price is more than gold, although this gift looks ordinary, but it can be regarded as sincere.

Chen rested for a few days, and he was not a person who valued money, so he was able to get out of bed soon and start to take care of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Yu Wen discussed with Chen whether he invited Master Wu to his house for the holiday this year, and said: "I usually see that he is bold and cheerful, likes to make friends and help his neighbors, so I think that he is not a good person except for reading a little less." I didn't expect him to be a person who really treats money like dung, and this time we did business together, I found out that there was someone around me who was worthy of my friendship, which shows that I usually look down on him. ”

Chen pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "How else to say that Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and he will see the hearts of the people over time!" ”

While the two were talking, Master Wu came to Yu Wen with a sigh on his face: "Fortunately, you proposed to send some Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to the Jiang family, guess what?" When the general manager of our family went to give a gift, he happened to meet a few splashes from Suzhou Mansion who took advantage of Master Jiang's absence to bully them that there was only a widow in their family, and they were sprinkled in Jiang's house! ”

Yu Wen listened and said angrily: "How can there be such a person? What's the matter with going to Mr. Jiang to talk to him, and when he sees that his son is not at home, he runs to bully a widowed old lady? What happened then? Did you report to the official or invite relatives and friends of the Jiang family to help? ”

Master Wu sighed: "It's useless to report to the official. I heard the chief manager of our family come back and say that those splashes were instructed by the maiden brother of the prefect's concubines, and I thought that most of the prefect's concubines were also involved. Fortunately, the aunt and grandmother of the Jiang family married nearby, and when the head of our family was in trouble, the aunt and grandmother of the Jiang family rushed over and took Jiang Lao'an to their home. ”

Yu Wen couldn't help but be very emotional when he heard this, and said: "The more this time, the more we can't force Master Jiang to pay back." ”

Master Wu bowed his head.

The two talked, and Yu Wen invited Master Wu's family to come over for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and pointed to the crabs kept at home and said, "This year, we will have a crab feast." ”

Master Wu turned out to be a very fond of eating crabs, so he immediately responded happily and said, "You don't care about the tea and wine, I'll bring it over when the time comes." The fifty-year-old daughter Red was buried by my great-aunt when she was born. ”

Yu Wenxi was so happy that his eyes narrowed into a slit, and when he returned to the room, he discussed with the Chen family: "I think the amount of silver that our family invested will be forgotten, and we will not lack these few pieces of silver for orphans and widows, and it will not be easy for everyone." ”

Chen said: "You can call the shots of our family's affairs." He said strangely, "Why didn't you discuss it with Master Wu when Master Wu was here just now?" ”

Yu Wendao: "Our family's silver is our family's business, and Master Wu's silver is Master Wu's business." If I had told Master Wu like this just now, no matter what Master Wu thought in his heart, he could only follow me, wouldn't I embarrass him? It's not a friend's doing. ”

Chan praised repeatedly.

Yu Tang had mixed feelings when he found out, but joy still prevailed.

She took the time to go back to the old house, went to the mountain to look at the saplings, saw that the saplings were growing well, rewarded Wang Si and the forest for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and brought back half a cart of peanuts.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chen urged Yu Tang to get up early, and the two prepared for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the evening, but a man with a small servant came to the door of Yu's house and asked to see Yu Wen.

He was only twenty-three or four years old, tall, wearing a very decent jujube red auspicious cloud pattern five-bat group flower straight jacket, white face, heroic facial features, and a tall posture, but his eyes were full of red bloodshots, and he looked very tired.

He personally stepped forward and knocked on the door, claiming to be Jiang Chao of Suzhou Prefecture.

It was Ah Tao who opened the door, even if no one made a special trip to tell him, he had more or less heard about some changes in the family, and when he heard the words, his face changed greatly, and he rudely threw people outside the door and ran towards the courtyard, while running, he also shouted loudly: "Master, master, Master Jiang from Suzhou Mansion is here." ”

Yu Wenzheng and Chen were discussing what utensils to use for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and they were stunned for a moment when they heard it, and it took a while to realize who was coming.

Yu Tang, who heard the movement, ran out first and said, "Master Jiang? Is it the old man Jiang who does business with Daddy? ”

Ah Tao nodded a little excitedly and said, "He said his surname is Jiang." ”

Yu Wen hurriedly said: "Please!" Please! He also instructed Shuangtao, "You go and talk to Master Wu next door, and say that Master Jiang from Suzhou Mansion is here." ”

Twin Peach went away.

Yu Wen personally went to welcome Jiang Chao in.

Yu Tang and Chen hid in the screen next to the hall to peep.

Jiang Chao came in and gave Yu Wen a deep look, and said with red eyes: "I heard my mother say that if it weren't for you and Master Wu, my mother would probably be humiliated." Thank you for your great kindness, please accept my bow. ”

After speaking, he was about to give Yu Wen a big salute, but Yu Wen grabbed him and said busily: "You don't have to be so polite." Whoever encounters such a thing will reach out to help. Besides, it is the chief manager of the Wu family who saves people, and it has nothing to do with me. “

Jiang Chao shook his head, as if he had a thousand words but didn't know how to say them.

Yu Wenwen skimmed over the topic intimately, and said with concern: "Have Lao An people ever been frightened?" How's it going now? Why did you suddenly come to Lin'an? ”

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival!
