The ancestor was sacrificed on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and on the first day of the new year, Yu Wen and Yu Bo took Yu Yuan to pay New Year greetings to the Pei family.

More than half of the people in Lin'an City will go to the Pei family to pay New Year's greetings, and if everyone in the Pei family sees it, they are afraid that they will be so tired that they will foam at the mouth. Therefore, the so-called New Year's greetings to the Pei family is just to write a famous post and put it in the big red book basket at the door of Pei's house. After that, there will be a register of stewards and report it to the sect master of the Pei family.

Yu Wen, Yu Bo, and Yu Yuan quickly squeezed out of the gate of the Pei family, which was full of people, and then went to pay New Year's greetings to the other squires' houses.

There is also a book basket at the gate of the Yu family, and those who have a relationship with the Yu family and those who read books are not allowed to enter the door when they come to pay New Year's greetings, only to put a name in the book basket, and even some don't have to come by themselves, just send the family's servants or stewards to come over.

Yu Tang and Chen and Wang are at home to prepare gifts for Yu Yuan's New Year's greetings tomorrow.

Because it was the Chinese New Year, most of the passenger ships stopped, and the Xiangjia family was in Fuyang, and Yu Yuan couldn't go back and forth on the same day, so he had to stay in the Xiangjia for a day.

Yu Tang packed his carefully made head flower in his own red box, put it into Yu Yuan's baggage, and told Wang: "Auntie, don't forget to tell your brother, lest he treat this flower as something for the Xiang family." ”

The Wang family originally liked Yu Tang, not to mention that now Yu Tang is planning for Yu Yuan everywhere, so she likes it even more when she looks at it.

"I see." She couldn't help pinching Yu Tang's pink face and said with a smile, "Don't worry, when your sister-in-law enters the door, I will ask her to make shoes for you." ”

Yu Tang grinned and joked to Wang: "Don't worry, when my sister-in-law adds a big fat nephew to me, I will make clothes for my nephew to wear." ”

"This little girl!" Wang smiled and slapped Yu Tang's handboard, and turned to Chen, who was busy loading maltose for Yu Yuan, "I don't know when I learned to be so sharp, and our family is not afraid to reason with others in the future." ”

Chen glanced at Yu Tang with a conniving smile and said, "Sister-in-law is used to her, but she doesn't know how to restrain herself more and more." ”

"Better!" Wang released Yu Tang, and together with Chen, he put the prepared things into the basket, and told Miki to call Xia Pinggui.

Miki is a small guy that Yu Bo bought for Yu Yuan a few years ago. Because this little guy had just arrived at Yu's house, he didn't have time to teach him the rules, this time Yu Yuan went to Xiang's house, and Yu Bo asked Xia Pinggui to follow him, and there was someone who could help him with anything.

Miki is an honest and unclever boy, who is only twelve years old after the New Year, and when he heard this, he immediately responded humbly and ran away.

Chen couldn't help but be a little worried, and said, "It doesn't matter if this kid follows, right?" Ah Yuan is going to Yue's house for the first time, don't delay anything because this kid is not bright. ”

Wang sighed: "Choose and choose, only this is the best." When the time comes, I have to let Ah Tao take care of him more. ”

The old man of the Xiang family and the old man of the Xiang family didn't say anything about this family business, but the three aunts and six mothers-in-law of the Xiang family all felt that Miss Xiang was married low, and they didn't look down on the Yu family very much.

The Yu family doesn't care about these in-laws, but they are afraid that they will wronged Miss Xiang, and they are afraid that when Yu is gone, there will not even be a person to serve closely.

The two of them said a few more words, and asked the literate Yu Tang to help see if there were any mistakes or omissions on the gift list, Miki suddenly turned back and stammered: "The eldest wife, the second wife, Pei Mansion, the third manager of Pei Mansion has come to hand over the name card to our family." ”

Wang and Chen looked at each other, and hurriedly led Yu Tang out.

One is that Hu Xing often brought Imperial Doctor Yang to check Chen's pulse these days, and he has seen him more often, and his friendship with Hu Xing is not ordinary. Second, Hu Xing is the third manager of the Pei family, representing the face of the Pei family, he came to pay New Year's greetings to the Yu family, and the Yu family will invite him in for a cup of tea no matter what, and be polite.

I just don't know if Hu Xing is here on behalf of Pei Fu or just on his own?

Yu Tang pondered in his heart, and followed his mother and aunt to the gate.

Hu Xing wore a robe with dark red silk and a gray squirrel fur collar, and happily, when he saw Wang and the others hurriedly stepping forward, he saluted, and said, "The third master asked me to come over." Big wife, second wife, happy new year! After speaking, he looked up and saw Yu Tang standing behind Wang and Chen, and gave Yu Tang another year's greeting.

actually sent the three chief managers with heads and faces in the family to pay New Year's greetings to the Yu family, which is a very shameful thing.

The Wang family led the Chen family and Yu Tang to return the gift to Hu Xing.

Hu Xing said: "I still have a few families going to visit the New Year, so I won't greet you, and when I am free, I will come to visit Master Yu again." ”

Chen said "I don't dare" and wanted to send Hu Xing out of Qingzhu Lane.

Hu Xing smiled: "Folks in my hometown, don't be polite to me." It's so cold, so you might as well go back to the house and rest! If this freezes out three long and two short, how can I be embarrassed to see Master Yu. ”

He insisted on not letting Chen send him, and when Chen saw that he was sincere, he didn't be polite to him, packed some home-made maltose, and sent him to the gate. When Hu Xing left, he couldn't help but say to Wang: "When the shop opened last time, I saw that Manager Hu was like a mourner, why did he look elated at this time?" ”

"I'm afraid something good has happened, right?" Wang smiled and guessed, "Mr. Hu is a very good person, it should be a momentary unhappiness at that time!" ”

Although they are familiar with Hu Xing, those things are Hu Xing's own business after all, and the two of them left this matter behind them after a few discussions, worried about Yu Yuan's going to Xiang's house.

Hu Xing's face collapsed as soon as he came out of Qingzhu Lane.

After he made his own decision last time, Pei Yan left him aside, as if he didn't have him, the third chief manager. The housekeepers were all human spirits, and he was soon isolated. If it weren't for the fact that Imperial Doctor Yang didn't know about the Pei family, thinking that after asking the eldest lady and Mrs. Yu for peace in the new year, and then coming to Lin'an, he would have been able to get the second dragon to raise his head in early February, and sent the little guy around him to contact him directly and let him talk to the eldest lady and Mrs. Yu. If he hadn't been bold enough to go to Pei Yan, and seeing that Pei Man didn't know what he was busy with these days, he racked his brains to take advantage of this errand and took this errand, I was afraid that he would have been beaten into the cold palace by Pei Yan a long time ago, and he would only wait for one day to be driven out of Pei's mansion and go to a grange in a corner to retire.

However, what is the relationship between the third master and the Yu family?

If it's just an ordinary neighbor, Miss Yu can ask to see the third master at any time, if there is something unusual, the third master doesn't seem to take the affairs of the Yu family to heart, someone will think of it when they mention it, and forget it when no one mentions it.

Just like this New Year's greeting, if Imperial Doctor Yang hadn't had something to tell Mrs. Yu in advance, and Pei Man was very busy, it would not have been his turn to hand over the post to the Yu family.

Does he want to go to the Yu family or not?

Hu Xing, who prides himself on being exquisite, was undecided for the first time.

Yu Tang's side, naturally I don't know that a worship post can make Hu Xing have a lot of thoughts, Yu Yuan went to Fuyang in the second year of junior high school, and came back in the fourth year of junior high school. The two families sat nervously around the table and asked Yu Yuan about going to Xiang's house this time, but Yu Yuan winked at Yu Tang before saying, "Although Mrs. Xiang doesn't like Miss Xiang, she can't allow others to watch her jokes behind her back." When I arrived at Xiang's house this time, Mrs. Xiang was too much to maintain, and she didn't make any excessive requests, and no one neglected me. ”

Yu Wen and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Tang knew that Yu Yuan had something to say to her, so he found an opportunity to meet Yu Yuan alone in the tea room.

Yu Yuan asked Miki to guard the door of the tea room, and whispered to Yu Tang: "It turns out that Mrs. Xiang and Miss Gu's aunt are close friends, I happened to hear the people around Mrs. Xiang say that Miss Gu made a big fuss during the New Year, and made Master Gu angry. ”

Yu Tang smiled hesitantly and said, "Regardless of whether he blows up or not, the Gu family is not happy, and the Li family doesn't want to have a good life." Speaking of this, she gloated and asked Yu Yuan, "Brother, do you think we should send someone to keep an eye on the Li family?" It would be even more interesting if something happened during the New Year! ”

Yu Yuan nodded again and again, and said, "I'll let Miki keep an eye on it, just let him practice his hands." ”

"Let's let Ah Liu go!" Yu Tang said, "We can't be so obvious!" ”

The brother and sister looked at each other and laughed, and Yu Yuan went to arrange for this matter not to be mentioned.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, their family went to the Wei family to pay New Year's greetings, and on the fourteenth day of the first month, Yu Tang made a special trip to see Ma Xiuniang, and made an appointment to go to see the lanterns together the next day. But I didn't want to go back home, but I found that the door was closed, and there was no excitement for the New Year.

She was startled and hurriedly asked Shuangtao to knock on the door.

Miki's timid voice came from inside the door: "Who, who?" ”

"It's Miss back." Shuangtao said loudly.

The door squeaked open, and Miki shouted "Miss" with a frustrated expression, turning sideways to let them in.

Shuangtao asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Sanmu looked around, and when he saw that there were no outsiders, he pulled Shuangtao in, and said to Yu Tang fearfully: "Miss, the master has gone to the shopkeeper Tong, and he is not at home." Just now, Mrs. Li came to the house to make trouble, and was locked out by the second wife. She said a lot of unpleasant things through the door, and when she saw that the second wife was angry and was going to find the Li family's sect room review, she left. ”

Yu Tang's face sank, and while walking quickly to Chen's inner room, he asked Miki: "Have you ever reported to my father?" ”

"Go!" Miki chased after Yu Tang quickly, "Ah Tao has already gone to find the master." ”

"And my mother?" Yu Tang asked.

"Mrs. Chen went to find the eldest lady to come over." Miki said, "The eldest lady is talking to the second wife!" ”

Yu Tang's heart was slightly relieved, and he lifted the cotton curtain in Chen's inner room and walked in.

"Mommy!" She shouted, and saw Chen and Wang sitting opposite each other, with a smile on their faces, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Ah Tang is back!" Wang smiled and beckoned to Yu Tang, "Come and sit!" Then he asked her with concern, "Are you hungry?" Do you want Double Peach to make you a bowl of sesame paste? ”

Yu Tang looked at Chen, then at Wang, and said in confusion: "Didn't you say that Mrs. Li came to make trouble?" ”

Why were her mother and her aunt smiling?

What happened that she didn't know?
