Chapter 156: Uncomfortable
Since Pei Yan took a large sum of silver to Jiang Chao to revive the family business, Master Wu privately praised Pei Yan to the sky, and even took Mrs. Wu to Pei Yan to look at Pei Yan differently, as soon as she said this, Chen, who was grateful to Pei Yan, also felt that Miss Gu was not worthy of Pei Yan.
Mrs. Wu even said to Chen: "Doesn't your family Ah Tang often go to greet the old people in Pei's Mansion?" Is Mrs. Shen here to be a matchmaker for Miss Gu, you ask your Ah Tang to be more careful when she goes to Pei's Mansion! Mrs. Shen and Miss Gu are still living in Pei's Mansion! ”
Chen didn't want Yu Tang to get involved in this matter, so she hurriedly refused politely: "She is a little girl who has not been out of the cabinet, what do you know!" If it makes Lao An people unhappy, it is not beautiful. ”
Although Mrs. Wu just said this, she was still unfair when she heard Chen's answer: "If the third master of the Pei family marries Miss Gu, I will definitely take a detour when I meet Miss Gu in the future." ”
Who says it isn't!
Chen let out a long sigh in his heart.
Originally, she had no idea who Pei Yan would marry, but after listening to Mrs. Wu's words, she felt a little uncomfortable thinking that Pei Yan might become the son-in-law of the Gu family. After sending Mrs. Wu away, Yu Tang helped her take the new clothes prepared for the ancestors in a few days, she couldn't help but talk to Yu Tang about it, and asked Yu Tang: "What did Mrs. Shen say to Lao An on the day you met Mrs. Shen?" Did Miss Gu behave very special in front of Lao Anren? ”
Yu Tang heard the words as if he had been struck by lightning, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Pei Yan and Gu Xi ...... Whose rumor is this?! They're so good at! Pei Yan and Gu Xi are separated by generations, okay?!
No, it's her who wants to be left.
Pei Yan is about the same age as Gu Chang, and he was also an official in the same dynasty.
If it weren't for the inherent impression in her previous life, she always felt that she and Gu Xi were the same, and she wouldn't think that Gu Xi and Pei Yan were different.
In this way, Gu Xi is really likely to marry Pei Yan!
But Gu Xi married Pei Yan...... Yu Tang couldn't think of what kind of picture it was.
But what if Gu Xi really married Pei Yan?
Yu Tang suddenly felt like he had swallowed a fly.
It's not just nausea and discomfort, it's unacceptable.
Pei Yan and Gu Xi ...... How can it work!
Is Gu Xi worthy of Pei Yan?
Why did she marry Pei Yan?!
Yu Tang stood up and circled around the room like a trapped beast.
No, she can't let Gu Xi marry Pei Yan!
Gu Xi is a hypocrite, a fake generous, and a person with poor character!
Pei Yan should marry no one to marry Gu Xi!
She had to go and tell Pei Yan.
Yu Tang thought so in his heart, and his feet actually moved as he wished, and walked towards the door.
"What are you doing here?" She was about to walk to the door, but was grabbed by Chen.
Chen's face was at a loss, and he said: "I'll tell you about Master Pei San, why did you turn around and leave, and you still muttered that you don't know what you're talking about......
This kid can't be a demonic barrier, right?
Chen looked her daughter up and down nervously.
Yu Tang came back to his senses because of the pain of his arm being tightened.
She...... What's wrong with her? How could he rashly warn Pei Yan?
Let's not mention that the matter of Pei Yan and Gu Xi is just her mother's hearsay, even if the Pei family really wants to discuss marriage with the Gu family, what does it have to do with her?
Besides, the grievances between her and Gu Xi are between them, Pei Yan is resourceful, Lao An is shrewd and capable, which one is not better than her? Why did she think that Gu Xi and Pei Yan were inappropriate?
Whether Gu Xi and Pei Yan are suitable or not should also be judged by the Pei family, not because she and Gu Xi are not in harmony, the self-righteous decision on behalf of the Pei family, thinking that Gu Xi and Pei Yan are not suitable, right?
Yu Tang took a deep breath, suppressed those chaotic emotions in his heart, and said to his mother: "I heard that the Gu family intends to marry the Pei family, I was so surprised, I was a little out of shape for a while......"
Chen didn't think much about it, and sighed: "Don't say it's you, even I was shocked when I heard it." But after thinking about it carefully, it makes sense that the Gu family wants to marry the Pei family - looking at the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there are a few men who have not yet been engaged to marry can compare to the third master of the Pei family, and if I were Miss Gu's mother, I would also fight this idea. I just thought that I had heard someone say in the past that when Mrs. Pei was alive, she once said that the marriage of Master Pei San could not be achieved unless a girl from a family of three or more seniors. Now that Mrs. Pei is gone, Master Pei's marriage has been delayed......"
Taking care of the family like this will not meet the standards of Mrs. Pei at all.
No wonder she felt uncomfortable.
Chen and Yu Tang thought about it in unison, and they both found a reason to explain their discomfort, and their moods calmed down.
Yu Tang also carefully recalled the scene when she saw Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi that day: "Don't you say it, I really didn't think about it. Lao An people obviously don't want to see Mrs. Shen, and Miss Gu is too lively in front of Lao Anren, feeling that she is doing this on purpose, as if she wants to please Lao Anren. Now it seems that they insist on living in the Pei family, and it really seems that they came here for a purpose. ”
In fact, Gu Xi behaved quite normally in front of Lao Anren, but Yu Tang lived with Gu Xi in his previous life, and Gu Xi married the Li family and then married, and he had a little bit of a stand from beginning to end. This life is different from the previous life, and Yu Tang can feel it immediately.
Chen Shi was speechless: "If this thing is done, it can be seen that the old saying 'support the bold to death, starve to death the faint-hearted' is really reasonable." Then I will also be bold, please ask Mr. Shen to help you choose a person with good character to be your son-in-law among the children of the Shen family. Anyway, if you don't try some things, you never know if you can do it. ”
Gu Xi: Did this open Chen's eyes?
Yu Tang pursed her lips and smiled, but somehow in her heart, there was always a faint sadness, which made her puzzled.
On the first day of October, the ancestors are worshipped, and every family will begin to prepare for the New Year.
Hu Xing suddenly accompanied Aunt Ji to visit Chen's family, saying that Pei Lao'an was going to live in another courtyard on North Tianmu Mountain for a few days, and wanted to ask Yu Tang to accompany Lao Anren to live for a few days, and asked Chen if he agreed.
Chen's didn't want Yu Tang to go to live in another courtyard, so it can be seen that Aunt Ji came to invite him personally, and said a lot of things, "Lao An people like Miss Yu very much, and the second wife and the fifth lady also accompany them to live in the other courtyard, and they will come back in ten days and half a month at most, so you should let Miss Yu go to the door" and other words, which made Chen a little difficult to refuse, so he asked Yu Tang in private.
Although the brazier is burning at home, it is still very cold away from the brazier.
Yu Tang thought about the ground cage in Lao Anren's house, and he wanted to go a little.
Chen couldn't cry or laugh, and nodded Yu Tang's forehead: "Greedy for small and cheap suffers big losses." When you get on the fire, don't come back and cry, let me make you chrysanthemum tea to drink. ”
Yu Tang laughed, but thought in his heart that he didn't know if Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen had returned to Hangzhou City? Did she really miss her when she went to live in Pei's Mansion this time? If Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen hadn't left, what would she have done when she met these two people?
While thinking wildly, she instructed Shuangtao to pack up her clothes, and on the day she made an appointment with the Pei family, she took Shuangtao and went out with Aunt Ji.
The annex of Pei Mansion is built on the halfway of the North Tianmu Mountain, which is only half a day's journey from Lin'an City.
Along the way, there are lush towering trees, the bluestone slab road of the quiet mountain, if it is not for the opening of the sedan curtain and looking out, there will be a biting cold wind blowing in, it will make people misunderstand that it is the height of summer at this time. The courtyard of Pei's Mansion is located in the cover of a piece of trees, with white walls, gray tiles, and black Ruyi doors, only revealing a door face, which can only be used for a sedan chair to enter and exit. But when I went in, I bypassed a shadow wall made of gray bricks with the word "Fu", but there was a hole inside.
Verdant rockeries, towering open halls, deep winding paths, exquisite pavilions...... It turned out to be a big mansion that was not inferior to Pei's mansion.
Aunt Ji led the way in front of her, and turned around from time to time to talk to Yu Tang: "At the beginning, the Pei family lived here, and later it was inconvenient to go up and down the mountain, so the current Pei Mansion was built in Xiaomei Lane, and the Pei Mansion over there is in the city, and it is more convenient for the old masters to do business and the young masters to study there." Gradually, this side only came to live when someone was purifying. And because it is ancestral property, this house is owned by the clan, and even fewer people come to live there. But when the old lady was still there, he liked to come here to live, and even brought Lao An people to live here. When the old lady first went there, Lao An wanted to move here to live, but the third master had not yet married, and the housework in each room in the clan would have to be adjusted by Lao An for a while, and it was not very convenient for Lao An to live in, so it has been delayed until now. ”
Yu Tang looked at the painted pillars and whitewashed walls of the house here, there was no appearance of decay, and it was estimated that it would cost a lot of silver to repair it every year, and couldn't help but say: "Then if Lao An really moved over, wouldn't you also have to come over." ”
Aunt Ji nodded and said with a smile: "So after the old lady went, those who were young or uneasy were all let out, and most of the people who stayed by Lao An's side to serve now were servants like me." And then there are pearls and amber, who grew up around Lao An. ”
The two talked, and soon arrived at the main room of the East Cross Courtyard where Lao An was resting.
Yu Tang first went to the east wing of the backyard where she lived and placed the things she had brought over.
There was a burst of heat at the door.
Even her guest room was burned down.
Yu Tang was very surprised, but the joints of her whole body seemed to come to life, which made her feel more comfortable, and she was so comfortable that she wanted to jump directly on the bed.
She freshened up and changed her clothes, and then followed Aunt Ji to greet Lao Anren.
Lao Anren looked a little tired, and seven or eight maids were serving beside her, and she was holding a straw to tease a oriole bird.
Yu Tang hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Lao An put down the straw in his hand, and his own little maid stepped forward to lift the bird cage elsewhere, and took a handkerchief to wipe Lao An's hands.
"You're here." Lao Anren looked kind, wiped his hands and asked Yu Tang to sit down on the embroidery pier next to him, and said, "Is your mother okay?" I called you over, she must be reluctant, I will make a compensatory to her here first. ”
"You're serious." Yu Tang stood up again and said respectfully, "Mother is a little reluctant to me, it's not that she doesn't want me to accompany you, it's that she feels that the weather is cold, and you have to use charcoal everywhere, for fear of troublesome you." ”
