Chapter 311: Wedding Invitation
No matter how indignant the people of the Pei family were, this was the matter of the Yang family and the Yan family, and Miss Yang packed her luggage and returned to the capital the next day.
Yu Tang asked her to help bring some earthen instruments to Miss Xu, and Miss Yang agreed. Pei Yan didn't feel very good, and said, "I will send someone to send a congratulatory gift to Yin Mingyuan in a few days, and your things will go with me." The affairs of the Yang family are very complicated, and Miss Xu may not like to be friends with Miss Yang. ”
She didn't know the old grievances between these families, so it was naturally best to listen to Pei Yan, Pei Yan and her went to the flower garden on the back mountain, while introducing her to the flowers and trees at home, and at the same time telling her about the Yang family: "...... can only be regarded as a small official in Beijing, so he has to let his wife and daughter associate more with those generations of eunuchs. The Yan family is similar to theirs, but I heard that the child of the Yan family is quite good at reading, and I am afraid that he is unwilling to settle down so early and wants to marry a better family. ”
In this way, it is indeed inappropriate for her to ask Miss Yang to send something to Miss Xu.
Pei Yan looked at her with a smile and said, "If you have anything in the future, you have to discuss it with me first." ”
He looked at her with a look of profundity, but with a bit of heat, which made Yu Tang blush, and responded with a low "yes".
Miss Yang couldn't help but regret it when she found out, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so she actually said to Yu Tang when she left: "Actually, I have a very good relationship with the third young lady of the eldest lady's mother's family. Unexpectedly, not long after the death of the third miss of the Yang family, the eldest young master of the Pei Mansion became engaged to Miss Gu Jia. You can see that this man ......," she said, shaking her head.
Of course, Yu Tang wanted to defend the Pei family, and said with a smile when he heard this: "Miss Yang is cautious!" The third lady of the Yang family has passed away, and she and the eldest young master of Pei Mansion are cousins and sisters, and they have grown up together since childhood, and their relationship must be very good, but according to what you say, it seems that they have some friendship in private. Not to mention that the reputation of the eldest young master of Yu Pei's mansion is not good, and the third lady of the Yu Yang family is not very good. Since you said that Miss Yang Jiasan had a good relationship with you in the past, you shouldn't believe these unreliable words. ”
Miss Yang turned red and hurriedly got into the carriage and left.
Several young ladies of the Pei family came forward and asked her what Miss Yang had said to her when she left.
Yu Tang smiled: "I didn't say anything, I just asked about me and Miss Xu." ”
The Xu family is also one of the best in the dynasty, and it is normal for Miss Yang to want to please Miss Xu, and a few Miss Pei didn't ask more, pulled Yu Tang and asked, "When will your account be sorted out?" We want to barbecue together during the Dragon Boat Festival, and we want you to join us! ”
Yu Tang was embarrassed.
She has only been playing with Pei Yan these days, and there are still a lot of accounts to say, leaving a few Miss Pei behind.
And she has already made an appointment with Pei Yan......
What to do then?
Yu Tang felt a headache.
decided to leave this matter to Pei Yan.
Anyway, he has a lot of ideas, and he also proposed to leave others to play in Tiaoxi Hall during the Dragon Boat Festival.
Whoever proposes is responsible.
Yu Tang couldn't help but smile when he thought of this.
Miss Pei Si said curiously: "Sister Yu, what are you laughing at?" Smile so sweetly! ”
"Nothing, nothing!" Yu Tang felt inexplicably weak-hearted, and was still a little reluctant to let Pei Yan face it alone, and said, "I don't know when my accounts will be completed, so I can only make an appointment when the situation comes." ”
The fourth lady sighed.
Pei Lao'an asked people to bring a few cooking cakes over, saying that they were made by Ku'an Temple, and she tasted it and thought it was delicious, so she let people learn it.
Miss Pei Wu cheered: "I thought it was delicious that day, I was embarrassed to ask for more, but today I have to eat Sister Yu's blessing again." ”
Not to be outdone, Miss Fourth ran over and sat down with Miss Five.
The third miss glanced at Yu Tang, and for the first time, she didn't follow the fourth and fifth misses to coax.
Only the second lady still looked preoccupied, and she didn't pay much attention to the scene on Yu Tang's side.
She had breakfast with Yu Tang, and then went to greet Pei Lao'an.
At Pei Lao'an's place, they met the second wife who had just come from Lin'an City.
The fifth lady threw herself into her mother's arms with her delicate children.
The second wife smiled and rubbed her daughter's green silk, said hello to Yu Tang, and continued to talk to Pei Lao'an: "The Gu family has already sent an invitation here, and the wedding date is scheduled for September 26. said that he became a relative, so he would go to the capital to live in the capital with Master Gu as soon as possible. ”
Mrs. Pei was removed from her clothes on the tenth day of September, and the daughters of the Pei family could just go to Gu Chang's wedding.
I don't know if Gu Chang's wedding date was arranged by chance?
But at that time, the second wife and the second master's family were also in a hurry to go to the capital. In addition, the eldest lady is widowed, Pei Yan's marriage has to be officially hired, and who will participate in Gu Chang's marriage has become a matter that Pei Lao'an needs to decide.
Several young ladies of the Pei family listened to the lawsuit, you look at me, I look at yours.
Pei Laoan took the wedding card in the second wife's hand and looked at it for a while, and then handed the wedding card to Aunt Chen, and said, "I will discuss this matter with Yaoguang before making a decision!" ”
It mainly involves Pei Yan's marriage.
The second wife glanced at Yu Tang quietly when she listened, answered with a smile, went back to her yard to change her clothes, and left a few little girls here to talk to Lao Anren.
A few people chattered for a while, and Yu Tang remembered her account books and got up in advance to leave.
Pei Lao'an didn't keep her, and asked a few Miss Pei to accompany her to play leaf cards.
In the afternoon, several Miss Pei were accompanying Pei Lao'an to listen to the female gentleman's story, and Pei Yan went to Baoxia to accompany Yu Tang to settle accounts.
The two of them couldn't help but talk about the Dragon Boat Festival.
After Pei Yan was a little unhappy and scolded a few Miss Pei for "messing around", as Yu Tang thought, he took over the matter, so that Yu Tang didn't have to worry about the Dragon Boat Festival.
After a few days like this, Yu Tang went through the account books, and Pei Laoan called her to ask her what she saw from these account books?
Of course, Yu Tang didn't dare to say that the amount in this account book was different from the one on the market, she only picked up what she could say and said: "I didn't find anything wrong, I just feel that there are more and more New Year's gifts in the house every year." ”
Pei Lao'an nodded when he heard this, and asked her with hopeful eyes: "Are you interested in learning the art of computing from me?" ”
What is that?
Yu Tang was a little dazed.
Pei Lao'an explained to her for a long time.
Yu Tang was confused when she heard it, but Pei Lao'an felt that she had this talent, and she looked interested, erect, and erect, she thought that she should be filial to Pei Lao'an and have fun with Pei Lao'an - the difference is just that Pei Lao'an's hobbies are different from others.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to learn well!" Yu Tang said modestly.
"It's fine." Pei Laoan said very generously, "And I'm not in a hurry." ”
Yu Tang saw that her old man was very happy, and felt that she had made the right decision.
But Pei Yan's face changed greatly after knowing it, and she paced back and forth in the pavilion where she often met: "My mother is very obsessed with this. In the past, I was afraid that my father would oppose it, and I didn't dare to act at home, but later I found out that my father didn't care at all, and I became more and more bold, and for a while I didn't care much about things at home, my second brother was once taken by my mother personally, but because of this, he fell into the lake, and my mother changed her temper. ”
If this makes her energetic, he may not be able to see Yu Tang in the future.
Pei Yan hurriedly said: "My mother will definitely show you the book first, you get the book, you must tell me." I'll find a way to make Mommy stop bothering you. ”
"That's not good!" Yu Tang said, "Lao Anren is old, and there is nothing else to do, so I should play with her." ”
Pei Yan didn't know how to talk to Yu Tang, and said anxiously: "You have to listen to me in this matter." If you remember receiving the book she gave you, just say hello to me. ”
This is a trivial matter, Yu Tang agreed with his mouth.
Pei Lao'an really sent her a book later, what is it called "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", let her read it first, and ask if she doesn't understand.
Yu Tang flipped through it, and it seemed to be quite simple.
She told Pei Yan.
Pei Yan was not only not comforted, but became more anxious.
He was thinking about how to tell Pei Laoan about it, the Dragon Boat Festival was coming, Pei Laoan wanted to leave Yu Tang to spend the Dragon Boat Festival in another courtyard, so he specially invited Chen to go up the mountain and discuss this matter with her.
Chen was reluctant to let his daughter spend the Dragon Boat Festival at Pei's house.
Of course, Pei Laoan people can understand, so he simply invited the Yu family to come to the other courtyard for the Dragon Boat Festival.
Chen thought that although the two families were going to marry soon, at this time, they were unjustifiable and politely refused. However, Chen was afraid that Pei Lao'an would not like Yu Tang because of this, so he invited Pei Lao'an to go down the mountain: "Tiaoxi will hold a dragon boat race that day, you can also go and see the excitement!" ”
Pei Lao'an was not interested in these, but Pei Yan instigated beside him: "If you go and come back on the same day, it will be difficult for a few little girls to go out, so you should take them to see the world." ”
The old man felt sorry for the younger generation, so he agreed after thinking about it.
Chen came out of Pei Lao'an's and went to Yu Tang.
I haven't seen her for almost half a month, she took Yu Tang's hand and looked up and down, looking at Yu Tang's white and red face, which looked better than when she was at home, with a smile on her face, and asked about Yu Tang's days in the other courtyard: "What did Lao An people call you to do?" I see that the courtyard where you live is next to Pei Lao'an, not to mention, it's quite close to Lao'an, it seems that Lao'an people value you more, you can't be naughty here, you have to be filial to Lao'an. ”
Yu Tang was a little embarrassed, and told her mother about Pei Laoan's intention to let her come to the courtyard, and said, "Although I'm all fine here, I just miss you and Daddy." Dragon Boat Festival, we must have spent it together as a family. ”
As for Pei Yan, isn't he confident? She just left nothing to worry about.
Chen was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked what Yu Tang usually did, and what Pei Laoan said.
Yu Tang answered one by one.
The more Chen listened, the happier he became, and took Yu Tang's hand and sighed: "That's good, that's good." You have to learn from Lao Anren! Others can't think like you! ”
She regretted rejecting Pei Lao'an.
Pei Laoan people are wholeheartedly planning for Yu Tang, maybe leaving Yu Tang to spend the Dragon Boat Festival in Pei's house is also useful.
