Like Pei Tong, who has grandparents pressed on top, uncles staring at him, and a bunch of cousins waiting in line behind him, he can be valued by the elders in the family, and take him out to socialize and meet some children of the family, which is an extremely rare opportunity, in order to leave a good impression on the elders or old friends, such occasions are usually like a follower waiting on the side, not to mention leaving on his own initiative, just want to say two more words to think about and think.

Gu Xi was also born in such a wealthy family, so he naturally knew that Pei Tong was not easy.

Listening to Pei Tong's words, she couldn't help but soften in her heart, and her originally cold words took on a bit of sincerity and became warm: "Big lady, I didn't send anyone to visit Miss Yu today, do you know?" ”

Pei Tong had no idea what was going on.

He has been in the capital since he can remember, staying by his parents' side, feeling that he is the eldest grandson of this family, the eldest of his generation, of course, the resources of the family must be close to him first, and when he has achievements, he also has to take care of his younger brothers and sisters. So he's always been complacent.

But he didn't know until he returned to Lin'an. Although he is the eldest in his life, the resources of the family are not close to him first, and if he wants to use these resources in the family, he has to come up with convincing skills. Not only that, but the Pei family also has two Pei Chan and Pei Bo who may be more proficient in reading than him.

Just as the sun used to revolve around him, but now it suddenly becomes sunny, and it also falls on other people.

He didn't fit in for a long time.

Fortunately, he was raised by his father, and since he was a child, he has developed a tenacious temperament in the face of trouble, and he has adjusted in less than half a year.

Otherwise, how could they have such a good life in this house?

In the past, he agreed to marry Gu Xi, firstly, because he was sad and felt that his cousin was no longer there, and whoever he married was the same. The second is that he saw that he and his younger brother were struggling in the Pei family, and he wanted to borrow Gu Chang's strength to jump out of the Pei family's quagmire. I didn't have much feeling for Gu Xi.

Now that Gu Xi asked, his eyes lit up.

He naturally knows his mother's personality, his self-esteem is too strong, too arrogant, and there are some things that he shouldn't do, but he wants to do them.

He didn't know what happened to Miss Yu, but Gu Xi made a special trip to ask him about it, which showed that her mother had done something wrong again.

Since his father's death, he has not begged for his mother's help, but only begged his mother not to hold him back.

He said in a deep voice: "I stayed with my second uncle all day today, until the third uncle sent someone over to let the second uncle go to the Dharma Hall to preside over today's donation ceremony, and then I followed the second uncle to the Dharma Hall. What happened to Miss Yu? What did my mother do? ”

Gu Xi let out a long sigh of relief when he listened.

She was afraid of meeting a foolish person.

Then even if she has eighteen kinds of martial arts, there is no place to show them.

She told Pei Tong about Yu Tang's fainting, and then said in a deep voice: "I know that the eldest lady likes to be quiet or not, but now that everyone is staring at where Miss Yu lives, I think that even if the eldest lady doesn't feel the need to visit Miss Yu in person, she should send a mother-in-law to greet her." After all, there is a second wife serving in front of the old lady. ”

In this comparison, it is too obvious.

It will also affect the reputation of the two Pei Tong brothers.

Gu Xi knows the importance of speaking skills, and she relied on this to crush her stepmother.

She said softly: "The eldest lady is sad and sad, where is she in the mood to entertain those wives in charge, and it is not easy to move around during the period of filial piety to the eldest master, you two brothers grew up in the capital, and others must be very strange to you." The more this happens, the more you should move around the rooms. When others know your goodness, they will naturally speak for you if there is anything! ”

That's exactly what it is.

Pei Tong was very smart, and he found out about this problem not long after he came back. But after all, he is a son and a man, and it is inconvenient for him to come forward for these social interactions in the inner house, and other people dare not speak out.

He looked at Gu Xi carefully.

At the age of eighteen or nine, her skin is white and red, her eyebrows and apricot eyes, although she is not very beautiful, she has an elegant temperament, and she is a girl who reads at first glance.

Plus there is also a delicate heart.

Pei Tong suddenly became satisfied with Gu Xi.

Maybe this is fate!

He waited for his cousin, but her died young. He and Miss Gu are 108,000 miles apart, but they are about to marry Miss Gu as his wife.

Pei Tong sighed slightly, restrained the joys and sorrows in his heart, and sincerely thanked Gu Xi: "Thank you!" If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known about it. When I went back in the evening, I discussed it with my mother. However, you should have also heard that my mother is not very careful, but I am afraid that these things will still trouble you in the future. If you hear anything in the future, please tell me more, lest we do anything rude and we don't know about it. ”

This is to listen to her advice.

Gu Xi was very satisfied.

She will live with Pei Tong in the future, if Pei Tong is biased towards the eldest lady in her heart, she can't listen to anything, and her life will be difficult.

Pei Tong was still busy over there, she didn't dare to delay, and after a few words with Pei Tong, she dispersed.

When Gu Xi went to his house, he inevitably had to pass by where Yu Tang lived.

She listened with her ears.

At this time, the sky had darkened, and the lantern had been lit in the place where Yu Tang lived, and the lights were brilliant, as if even the sky was illuminated a little, which was very eye-catching. And the faint laughter in the courtyard arrogantly told those who came to attend the lecture of Zhaoming Temple how lively it was and how popular the owner of the courtyard was.

Gu Xi's chest felt as if he had pressed a big stone.

Hexiang said, "Shall we go in and say hello?" ”

"Do you want to carry a sedan chair for Yu Tang?" Gu Xi glanced coldly at the big red Ruyi Gate and said, "Is she worthy?" ”

Hexiang was startled, and almost covered Gu Xi's mouth, but fortunately, Gu Xi just said this, then held his head high and left quickly.

Of course, Yu Tang didn't know what was going on outside, she was listening to Qingyuan talking to Mrs. Pei Er and Mrs. Yang San, about Mrs. Shi's mother-in-law: "...... Just like that, Mrs. Liu doesn't hurt. I think she still has some real skills. Otherwise, Mr. Hu would not dare to introduce him to the house. As for whether you can strengthen your body, beauty and slim down, then you have to try. ”

The second wife and the third Mrs. Yang nodded repeatedly. The second wife even said: "Let's not talk about that, I've been tired and panicked for the past few days, so I'll call her over tomorrow to help me loosen my muscles." I had heard that there was such a doctor in the palace before, but I didn't expect that we also had one in Lin'an. ”

Mrs. Yang San said: "The Queen Mother likes massage. It is said that there are seven or eight doctors who can massage in the palace, and they take turns on duty, and they have to press for a while every day. ”

"That's a good idea!" The second wife said happily, "Let's try it all." Mrs. Yu is also with her. It's a rare opportunity. ”

"Me, I'm also together?!" Chen never thought of letting a strange outsider massage him, and he felt awkward when he thought about it, and said, "Still not, right?" I'll take a look at it. ”

"Ouch, we have a companion together, what are you afraid of!" The second wife smiled and asked Qingyuan, "Will the doctor come in tomorrow to give Miss Yu moxibustion?" What time was set? Let's get her a massage, is it too late? ”

Yu Tang hurriedly said: "It's too late!" She said that this moxibustion should not be too long, at most three quarters of an hour. Don't look at her spending an afternoon with me, she actually gossips with me most of the time. ”

As soon as the second wife heard about the gossip, she was a little reluctant.

Yu Tang hurriedly explained: "I didn't talk about other people's affairs, I just talked about myself, which was quite amusing." ”

"Not really!" Chen smiled, "I haven't said anything about the in-laws and concubines in the family, it's all her own business." ”

It's measured!

Mrs. Yang San also came to the scene and asked Yu Tang how he felt about moxibustion? I wonder if I should experience it too.

Everyone was happily saying that Pei Yan was coming.

Mrs. Yang San took out her pocket watch suspiciously, looked at it, and said, "Why is the third master here so late?" ”

Yu Tang subconsciously didn't dare to answer.

Chen was also at a loss, and said, "Maybe it's to come and see how Ah Tang is?" The third master also came to see Ah Tang in the morning. After all, he fainted at Zhaoming Temple. ”

The Pei family also funded the lecture meeting, so they should care more about Yu Tang's body.

Everyone was relieved, Mrs. Yang San got up with a smile and said, "It's not too early, let's go back first." I'll see you tomorrow morning. ”

Her last sentence was said to Yu Tang.

Yu Tang wanted to get up to send Mrs. Yang San and Miss Xu, but the two of them refused: "Your illness is just right, let's take care of it in the house, don't tire yourself for such a trivial matter." ”

She saw that she couldn't shirk it, and knew that Mrs. Yang San was pretending to be sick, and it would definitely not be fun to be in the house, so she invited: "Then do we want to have breakfast together tomorrow?" The vegetarian stuffed buns in Zhaoming Temple are delicious, and I asked the kitchen to bring us a few more. ”

Miss Xu also thought it was good, and shook Mrs. Yang's sleeve with a smile.

Mrs. Yang San felt that it was better to come out for a walk, and said, "Then we will come over early tomorrow." ”

Chen happily complied and sent Miss Xu and Mrs. Yang out of the house.

The second wife also felt that it was not early, so when Pei Yan came, she said hello and took several young ladies of the Pei family to leave.

Yu Tang saw that Pei Yan's face was not good, and after inviting him to sit down at the round table in the hall, he personally made tea for him, and said, "It is the tea made by the master of Zhaoming Temple, and everyone thinks it is good." Are you used to drinking? Would you like to ask Miss Qingyuan to fetch some of your usual tea? ”

"No!" Pei Yan looked at Yu Tang's ruddy face, his eyes were shining, he was in a good mood, and said with a smile, "I'm not so particular!" ”

Not particular?!

The afterglow from the corner of Yu Tang's eyes quickly swept over Pei Yan's feet.

He wore a pair of seemingly ordinary black double-beam shoes, but the two ridges were inlaid with gold and silver threads, and the slightest light shone brightly...... There is also embroidered with the same color moire on the hem......

She's not so particular about being a woman, okay!

I don't know what his so-called "exquisiteness" looks like?

Yu Tang slandered in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. turned around and personally went to bring a small Jiugongge box to make refreshments for Pei Yan, and said respectfully: "What is the important matter for the third master to come over?" ”
