Something so unbelievable happened, Yu Tang thought she would have insomnia, who knew that when her head was next to the pillow, and the familiar bergamot lingered between her breaths, she didn't even have a dream, and slept until dawn.

But she didn't wake up naturally.

Instead, he was woken up by Shuang Tao: "Miss, the eldest lady is here!" ”

Yu Tang was a little chaotic every time he got up.

She sat at the head of the bed, with a pair of big black and white eyes full of water, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, and she yawned and said, "Auntie? When did the eldest aunt come over? ”

As he spoke, Yu Tang was agitated and completely sobered up.

In her previous life, before dawn on the second day of walking on Changxing Street, her aunt came over. said that the weather was hot, she couldn't sleep, and the days were difficult, so she brought needles and threads to do it, but in fact she found an excuse to detain her mother and her at home all day, until the evening, her eldest uncle and cousin finished the shop, and sent a letter to her father who was far away in Suzhou City, and the eldest aunt left to go back.

Even so, when the eldest aunt left, she specially instructed the servants at home not to reveal the slightest news in the shop to her and her mother, leaving the eldest aunt's wife-in-law to tell her to make snowflake cakes at home.

Her mother was very pleased that she was interested in learning some cooking, so she moved a stool to accompany her in the kitchen, and with this snowflake cake, she detained the mother and daughter together until their father returned.

When my father came back, he also understated the things in the shop, if it weren't for the "Hidden Picture of Fishing in Songhu", someone else's family would have asked for silver, and my mother would not have known that the family had no money. But she waited until her parents died, only to know that there were only 50 acres of fertile land left in the family.

It wasn't until she married into the Li family and was coveted by Li Duan that she felt that this was an important turning point in her life.

Yu Tang hurriedly got up: "Who is accompanying the eldest aunt?" Does my aunt know that my aunt is coming? ”

Shuangtao served her to freshen up, and said: "I came here before dawn, saying that the weather was too hot to sleep, and I didn't let us wake you and Mrs. Chen, and Mrs. Chen accompanied me to cool off in the courtyard." ”

Yu Tang nodded.

It's still the same as in the previous life.

It's just that in this life, she won't throw all of this to the elders in the family.

Yu Tang hurried to the courtyard.

The eldest aunt was wearing a beautiful blue summer cloth skirt and was sitting on a bamboo chair under the camphor tree. The eldest aunt's expression was very sad, and the dark circles under her eyes were very obvious, and she didn't sleep well at first glance.

How big her heart was in her previous life, she didn't notice the strangeness of her aunt at all.

"Auntie!" Yu Tang stepped forward to salute his eldest aunt Wang, but his eyes couldn't help but burst into tears.

In her previous life, the eldest uncle and the eldest cousin died because of her involvement, and the eldest aunt had no support, so she returned to her parents' house to be widowed, and begged for a living in the hands of her nephews and nieces-in-law. The eldest aunt not only did not blame her, but also entrusted her cousin, who was a monk in the nunnery, to take her in when she was in the most difficult time.

"You kid, why are you crying?" Wang looked at Yu Tang and sighed, personally stepped forward to help her up, motioned to Mrs. Wang to bring a chair to Yu Tang, and then said softly, "I have heard that you have been to Changxing Street yesterday." It's rare that you're so sensible. I won't say anything more. The things in the shop have to be hidden from your mother no matter what. Your mom is not in good health, and she is in a hurry to hear the news. Your dad is not at home, if your mom is in a hurry, what should you do if you let your dad do it? ”

Yu Tang nodded again and again, helped Wang to sit down again, gave a cup of chrysanthemum tea to Wang, sat down beside Wang, and said, "Don't worry, aunt, I know how powerful." ”

Wang's chin bowed, feeling that today's Yutang was very different from the past, and couldn't help but look at Yutang.

Fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls are beautiful no matter how they dress up, not to mention that Yutang is a well-known Peugeot in Qingzhu Lane. It's just that she is pampered on weekdays and looks childish, but today she stands straight, with a bit of tenacity between her eyebrows and eyes, her clear eyes are clear and bright, and the whole person is stretched out like a jointed bamboo, which looks refreshing and neat, which makes people like it even more.

Wang secretly approved, and said, "I heard that you hit your head yesterday afternoon, are you better?" ”

Yu Tang said repeatedly: "I'm fine!" It happened suddenly, I was startled at the time, and it got better soon. ”

Wang didn't believe it, and said: "Just now Mrs. Chen said that you were in a coma for two hours, and after you woke up, you said some nonsense, and before Shuangtao went to tell your mother, you took Shuangtao and went to Changxing Street to see the excitement, and you couldn't stop it." If it weren't for Mrs. Chen's stability and help you hide your mother, your mother would have to run to the street to find you. ”

Yu Tang was weak and admitted his mistake: "It's me who did it wrong." I'll never do that again. ”

Seeing that her snow-white little face was wrinkled and pitiful, Wang suddenly felt unbearable, and said with a smile: "Okay, I don't mean to blame you." It's just that you are the only one of your mom and daddy, and you are afraid of melting in your mouth, and you are afraid of falling in your hand, so you can't help but think a lot, you have to be more considerate of your mom and daddy. What others can do, you may not be able to do. ”

"I see!" Yu Tang was obediently taught.

Or maybe he was still worried about her husband and son, Wang whispered to her about yesterday's fire: "Your uncle and your cousin were busy in the middle of the night, and they came back with a letter, saying that not only our shop, but also the Pei family's shop, were burned to the point that only some ruins remained. There is a big incident in the Pei family, and there is no one who is even in charge of the overall situation, and the Tang Governor's Mansion is now in a hurry, and he doesn't know how to write an excerpt to the imperial court. ”

The Pei family is a big family in Lin'an City.

Really big guys.

No matter who is the prefect of Lin'an City, they must visit the Pei family before they officially take office.

Before her death, the Pei family was the most prominent family in Lin'an City.

Changxing Street, the most prosperous street in Lin'an City, except for seven or eight shops like the Yu family that has been operating for several generations, the rest are all owned by the Pei family, and most of the mountains and forests, fertile fields, tea houses, and mulberry gardens outside the city are also owned by the Pei family. Many people rely on the Pei family to make a living.

In their previous life, the 100 acres of fertile land of their Yu family were also sold to the Pei family.

The Pei family has been rich for several generations.

From the previous dynasty to the present, there have been more than 20 two-rank jinshi, seven or eight first-class masters.

In this generation, the three masters of the Pei family are all from two Jinshi. In a few years, two more young masters of the Pei family will be admitted to the Jinshi.

The old lady of the Pei family seems to have died of illness at this time.

Yu Tang couldn't help but say: "It's really unfortunate." The old lady of their family said that he would go! ”

Who knew that the Wang family was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "Is the old lady of the Pei family?" Who told you that the old lady of the Pei family went? It was the eldest lord of the Pei family, the eldest man who worked in the Ministry of Labor in the capital, who said that he died of a violent illness in the capital a few days ago. The news reached Lin'an. The old lady Pei fell ill all of a sudden, and several young masters of the Pei family rushed to Qiantang overnight last night to pick up the spirit, and the stewards were busy treating the funeral of the eldest master, and no one had time to take care of the affairs of Changxing Street. ”

Yu Tang was stunned, but he didn't think much about it.

Whether it is in the past life or in this life, the Pei family is too far away from her, and the affairs of the Pei family, she is just hearsay, and she can't count them.

Wang sighed: "The fire on Changxing Street burned all at once. Your uncle said that the fire burned strangely - the water of every house burned from one place and spread to other places. Your uncle suspects that someone is setting the fire, and he wants to go to the government to talk about it. It's a pity that something happened to the Pei family, and Governor Tang definitely didn't have the mood to care about this matter......"

Yu Tang listened, and his heart beat hard.

In the previous life, the Li family was a relative who came to mention after their family's accident. At that time, she was reluctant, feeling that she was still in the filial piety period, and it was not appropriate to discuss this matter. But the eldest uncle and eldest aunt felt that after the filial piety period, she would be eighteen, and she would definitely not be able to marry a good family at that time, so they discussed with her that they would marry the Li family first, and then discuss the marriage period when the filial piety was over.

She couldn't help but hesitate. The Li family sent someone to tell her privately that if she agreed to get engaged first, the Li family was willing to lend 5,000 taels of silver to the eldest uncle, not to make money, and let the eldest uncle's family make a comeback.

There was a fire on Changxing Street, and their shop was burned, as was her uncle's shop. When the Li family came to mention this matter, the Pei family was rebuilding Changxing Street. The foundation is ready-made, but the money to build the shop has to be paid by each family, if someone has no money to rebuild the shop, they can sell it to the Pei family at a price.

Most of them sold the foundation to the Pei family.

Her uncle was reluctant to sell the foundation.

That is the ancestral business left by the Yu family.

Not only was she reluctant to sell, but she even wanted to build the two storefronts left by her father.

But when her grandfather died, her eldest uncle was worried that her father could not run the housework, so the four shops were divided equally, 200 acres of land, 100 acres of fertile land were given to her father, and the other 50 acres of medium land and 50 acres of mountains and forests were given to him.

The cost of four shops requires 4,000 taels of silver, and even if she sells her uncle's Tianquan, it is only a drop in the bucket, and she can't even buy the pillars to build the shop.

She listened to the words of the Li family, and felt that her marriage could get the eldest uncle's family out of trouble, so she agreed to the relationship with Li Jun, the second young master of the Li family, without informing the eldest uncle.

Afterwards, the eldest uncle felt sorry for her, and found out that he could make a lot of money by selling grain and going to Jiubian to exchange salt, so he took the Li family's 5,000 taels of silver and went to Huguang.

Although the eldest uncle and the eldest brother made a lot of money in their lives that time, they also buried future troubles - in order to earn her dowry, the eldest uncle and the eldest brother went in and out of Jiubian several times, first rebuilt the two shops left by her father, and later bought back the fertile land sold by her family...... But the eldest uncle also focused on the business of grain and salt, not only had a dispute with the elder brother about what to do for a living, but also met robbers on the way to the nine sides, and the bones were gone.

In her previous life, she was raised in the deep boudoir and did not know the world, even if she knew about the fire on Changxing Street and knew that the fire was burning strangely, she would not have any ideas. But at this time, Yu Tang had fallen into the quagmire of the Li family, and he didn't know how many dirty methods he had seen, so he heard it and knew that the Pei family's means of embezzling shops were the same as those used by the Li family when they enclosed land.

As long as there is an opportunity, they will bully the weak.

The same ruthlessness, the same despicable viciousness!
