Chapter 228: Handing Over
Pei Yan didn't care about any of this.
He knew that it was impossible for everyone present to agree to Master Song's idea.
There are those who take the blame, who wants to drag their own family into the water?
However, the fourth master of Song couldn't see the situation clearly, so he chased and asked Pei Yan: "What do you think?" ”
Pei Yan glanced at Master Song Si, but saw helplessness in his clear eyes.
Yes, no one who can be a suzerain is a fool. If there is no one in the Song family in the court, it is just a piece of fish and meat that can be used by others, except for pretending to be deaf and dumb and fishing in troubled waters, what else can they do?
At this moment, Pei Yan was extremely glad that the children of the Pei family were angry, so that he still had a back hand to turn the tables, and he also had the ability to deter these people.
He said lightly, "Didn't I say it before? I am the minority obeying the majority, and I listen to everyone. ”
The fourth master of Song couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes, and his eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of viciousness when he looked at Pei Yan, and then approached Pei Yan with a smile, and said in a low voice: "Although the Song family is not as good as before, Hangzhou City is my Song family's territory in the end." If I don't know anything in Hangzhou, it's a joke. Yaoguang, you and I are cousins, you see, we have to say a few words in private. No matter how good the Tao family is, after all, it is also an irrelevant person. ”
Pei Yan was unmoved, as if he didn't know the meaning of his words, and said with a smile: "Irrelevant has irrelevant benefits, at least I won't take advantage of me under the banner of relatives." After speaking, as if he remembered something, he smiled openly at Master Song Si, but his voice was very fierce, and he emphasized with a bit of gloom: "I hate that someone takes advantage of me the most." ”
Fourth Master Song was taken aback by Pei Yan's appearance like a murderous demon, his heart palpitated, his face turned a little pale, and he muttered at a loss.
Pei Yan regained his previous expressionless face, and sat down beside Tao Qing leisurely.
Tao Qing was very interested in what he had just done, and whispered to him with a smile: "I think no matter how we say it, it is just a car wheel, coming and going, and saying those things and those words over and over again. It's better to have lunch and disperse, and you and I can go out for a walk. The stalls of the small traders and vendors outside the temple must have been set up, right? Let's go see what's selling. ”
Pei Yan had in his mind a bright spring light, a group of beautifully dressed and beautiful little ladies holding hands in front of those stalls outside Zhaoming Temple to choose their favorite things.
He was inexplicably a little upset, and even couldn't sit still, especially when he saw that Gu Chang was still there and said repeatedly to Master Peng: "This matter should be told to the Yin family and the Li family in a reasonable way." Isn't the lecture going to be held for nine days? I think it's better to send a letter to the two of them as soon as possible. Even if you can't catch up with the housekeeper, you can have a big shopkeeper! The Yin family has a son-in-law in the pedestrian division, and if it gets into trouble, it will still be very troublesome. ”
Speaking of which, Gu Chang just wanted to accumulate his own connections and wanted everyone to owe him a favor.
He felt even more uncomfortable.
Why did he let Gu Chang accept favors?
In particular, Gu Chang also became Pei Tong's eldest brother.
Pei Yan stood up suddenly.
Influencers are particularly noticeable for their every move.
Pei Yan is the same.
So when he stood up, all eyes fell on him, and everyone who spoke stopped the topic and pricked up their ears to hear what he had to say.
Pei Yan didn't disappoint them either.
His expression was grim, his voice was stern, and he said in a deep voice: "There are two things now. The first thing, how to make Gu Chaoyang make a difference? The second thing is whether the city division will withdraw or not. The first thing, there is a lecture in Zhaoming Temple, and Wei Sanfu is invited to Zhaoming Temple to see the excitement, and everyone sits down to discuss what to do with the 200,000 taels of silver? This matter is in charge of Chaoyang. Second, I took this opportunity to visit Suzhou City and ask Wang Qibao about the purpose of his trip to Beijing. Who stays here and waits for Wei Sanfu, who goes to Suzhou City with me, everyone will come up with a charter at this time, and everyone will go their separate ways. After he finished speaking, he glanced at everyone present, and then said, "Do you have any objections?" ”
This is the best arrangement.
It's just that the key to the 200,000 taels of silver, which should have been borne by the Jiangnan families, has been turned into solving the problem for Gu Chaoyang.
The corners of Gu Chang's mouth twitched slightly, and he wanted to say something, but when he looked up, he saw Master Peng's eager expression, and he closed his mouth tightly.
Pei Yan came up with an idea that was beneficial to everyone, whatever he said at this time would only infringe on everyone's interests, making people unhappy, and even guessing whether he was selfish.
He didn't do anything right!
Only silence.
Master Peng is really happy.
He didn't bother to care about the 200,000 taels of silver, and the affairs of the city division could get Pei Yan to the front to take the lead, and the main purpose of his coming was basically achieved.
He stood up with a smile on his face and praised Pei Yan: "It's still the right idea, I think it's okay!" As for the gift of visiting Wang Qibao, our Peng family is willing to send it! Speaking of this, he felt that he laughed humorously, and continued, "Yaoguang, I'm not saying that your Pei family can't afford this silver. I mean, I can't make you contribute and pay, and those of us who sit by and enjoy it should also do our best to be worthy of you. ”
His words reminded several others.
They all said that they were willing to share the cost of visiting Wang Qibao's gifts.
Pei Yan was noncommittal.
Yu Tang had already received the candy and snacks sent by Pei Yan.
She looked at the bamboo baskets piled on the ground and the boxes full of round tables, pointed at herself suspiciously, and repeatedly confirmed to Hu Xing: "You say, this is all given to me by the third master?" ”
Hu Xing nodded again and again, looking at Yu Tang's peachy and plum-like face, while secretly sighing in his heart that Yu Tang is getting more and more beautiful, he replied with a smile: "The third master also asked me to bring you a message, saying that Miss Gu will also attend the lecture tomorrow, so let you go early." ”
What did you do earlier?
Fighting with Gu Xi?
At that time, the housewives of all the provinces will be there, and she thinks that she doesn't have such a big face!
Yu Tang listened with anger in his heart.
I looked at the things that were almost half of the room, and my heart bubbled like boiling water.
Pei Yan, what does this mean?
Take the initiative to reconcile with her?
She was angry that day, and he saw it?
Yu Tang tugged at the handkerchief in his hand.
Actually, Pei Yan is still a good person.
Although his mouth is like a knife, his mind is good, but he is a little arrogant, even if he does something wrong, he doesn't want to admit it.
The corners of Yu Tang's mouth are slightly upturned.
Thinking about Pei Yan's little shortcomings, it's actually quite cute, like a child.
No wonder her mother said, don't look at the man as the pillar of the family, but there is a child living in the body, and he has to pop out a few times from time to time, and he can only coax at this time, not reprimand.
Then she will forgive Pei Yan.
Yu Tang picked up a box containing the candy.
Hu Xing hurriedly said: "This is sent from Beijing." We buy a lot of them every year, and our families eat them and give them away. However, the gifts are all old relatives and friends, and other idlers don't use this as a return gift. As he spoke, he got up and flipped through it, took out a boxy made of brown paper, and said in a paper box with a red Fu character written in the middle, "You have to try this." The Tao family sent it, the ice rice cake in Fengcheng, Jiangxi, is quite rare here. ”
Yu Tang smiled and thanked him, thinking more and more that he must have misunderstood Pei Yan just now.
Pei Yan asked someone to bring her a letter, saying that Gu Xi would attend tomorrow's lecture, probably because she was afraid that she would say goodbye to Gu Xi, so she specially reminded her.
"I see!" Yu Tang accepted the gift list, smiled and motioned to Shuangtao to renew tea for Hu Xing, and said, "Thank you!" It also allows you to run it yourself. ”
"No thanks, no thanks." Hu Xing said respectfully, feeling that he should be more polite to the people of the Yu family.
Yu Tang asked him, "What is the third master doing?" I accepted his gift, so I had to think about returning the gift. ”
This is to inquire about Pei Yan's whereabouts.
Hu Xing doesn't think that's a problem.
The Pei family is the east, and the sect masters of several families who come to worship the Buddha sit together and talk, which is normal.
He said: "I borrowed the hall to the west of the meditation room of Zhaoming Temple to chat together!" I guess lunch will be used in the hall, but I don't know about dinner. Even if I went back to my accommodation, it should be late. “
That is, there is little chance today!
But Pei Yan chatted with the sect master of the family, and he would definitely not only discuss some clothes and jewelry like the ladies in their house, they should be able to talk about current affairs and economy, so will they talk about the prince of the dynasty?
Yu Tang was a little anxious.
She said: "I heard that Master Gu also came, I don't know if he came here this time for a private matter or a business matter?" ”
Hu Xing naturally knew what to say: "I don't know." Several sect masters were talking in the hall, and Pei Qi was the only one who served tea and poured water. He is the personal entourage of the third master. ”
In other words, what the people in the hall said was to be kept secret.
Yu Tang knew it in his heart, and said to Hu Xing with a smile: "If I want to thank the third master, you see, when is the right time?" ”
Hu Xing also intended to flatter Yu Tang and said with a smile: "It's hard to say. However, I'll help you watch, and I'll let you know as soon as there is news. ”
Yu Tang thanked Hu Xing and served tea.
Hu Xing naturally didn't want to sit much, got up to say goodbye, and went to the hall.
The people inside were still talking.
He asked Pei Qi to deliver a message to Pei Yan: "Miss Yu wants to come over and thank the third master." ”
Although Pei Qi didn't like Yu Tang to trouble Pei Yan at this juncture, it was not up to him to say whether he could see it or not, so he still went to report it wholeheartedly.
Pei Yan was a little proud when he found out.
It can be seen that the little girl has to be coaxed, and she is obedient after coaxing.
He thought about whether he would send some candy and snacks to Yu Tang if he had nothing to do in the future, lest she always be petty in front of him, but if she teased her a few words, she would come to the trouble and be angry!
Pei Yan wanted to dry Yutang.
He said lightly: "There's no need to thank you, attend the lecture on time tomorrow, don't make trouble with Miss Gu, just suffer a loss." ”
Yu Tang got the letter and was so angry that he couldn't speak again.
Who are these people?
I sent someone to deliver a message to her, just to warn her not to be angry with Gu Xi?
When did she take the initiative to provoke Gu Xi?
Pei Yan spoke unfairly.
Could it be that just because Gu Xi became his nephew and daughter-in-law, he began to look towards Gu Xi?
