Which mother-in-law doesn't like to hear people praise her aunt!

Aunt Ji became more enthusiastic about them, let down her guard, and told them about the Pei family: "There are many things in the family, there are three chief managers and seven managers. The chief manager is in charge of the big and small affairs in the house, the second is in charge of the general affairs and personal relations in the house, and the third is in charge of the account room in the house and the shopkeeper outside. Of the seven stewards, the chief steward followed the chief steward; The second steward, the third steward, followed by the second steward; The other four stewards followed the three stewards, and seven of them were in charge of the affairs of the inner house, such as me, and they were under the control of the seven stewards.

"As for the shopkeeper of Tong, their ancestors served their ancestors, and later Pei Fu was able to take root in Lin'an, and their family made great contributions. Before the ancestor returned to the west, he released the Tong family's registration. But the ancestor of the Tong family is a grateful person, although he has been released, he has not left, and he also helps to take charge of the pawnshop, which is particularly decent, and is different from the servants next to him. He spoke with a sense of pride.

As long as you live in Lin'an Mansion, you will inevitably have to deal with the Pei family to a greater or lesser extent.

Today's Yu family, whether it is rebuilding the shop or because of the painting, has a deeper relationship with the Pei family.

In his previous life, it was the third master of the Pei family who became the sect master.

Therefore, Yu Tang does not have a lot of speculation about this matter like Yu Wen or Chen.

But Mrs. Pei's funeral revealed too much information.

For example, if there is something wrong with those merchants in Lin'an City, they are asking for the chief manager; Mrs. Pei died of illness, but the three chief managers who were supposed to be in charge of the outside business presided over the funeral of Mrs. Pei; The second manager who should stand up to help with the funeral at this time doesn't know what he's doing?

How did the third master of the Pei family do it?

What happened in the meantime?

Are the three chief managers dedicated to the third master Pei at this time, or do they have their own thoughts?

Then who is the third master of the Pei family? Who's on the side of the longhouse?

Even though Yu Tang married into the Li family in his previous life, because he was trapped in the back house, he didn't know much about the Pei family.

In my previous life, I had never heard anyone criticize the third master.

It seems that as soon as he appeared in the Pei family, he was already covering the sky with one hand, and the whole clan was obedient, and no one dared to disagree.

She didn't want the Yu family to get involved in this incident of the Pei family.

There is also the man in Tsing Yi she met in the pawnshop, and the age should not be the two young masters of the long house. So what is the relationship between him and the Pei family?

Could it be the young master of the other two branches?

Which side is he on at this point?

Does he know that it will be the third master of the Pei family who will win this war in the end?

Judging from the temperament of the third master of the Pei family from the events of his previous life, he became the third master of the Pei family after the sect master of the Pei family.

I don't know if the man in Tsing Yi will avoid his edge because of this.

Looking like that, he is also an unruly ......

Yu Tang's heart was in a mess, she couldn't figure out whether she wanted the Yu family to avoid trouble more at this time or wanted to know the situation of the man in Tsing Yi...... But she couldn't stop paying attention to the Pei family.

Yu Tang said: "The three managers are busy!" and to take care of the affairs of the outside and the affairs of the house. Didn't the chief manager and the second manager help either? ”

Aunt Ji was shocked to realize that she was speechless, but Yu Tang looked ignorant of the world, she vaguely replied, "The chief manager and the second chief manager have other things" and changed the topic, and said: "I see that the body of the talented lady is still very weak, if you are ready to go back after worshiping the old lady in our house, I will ask someone to take you to the room behind the side hall to rest for lunch." The sun is too hot at noon, so beware of heat stroke. ”

Afraid of arousing Aunt Ji's suspicion, Yu Tang had to stop temporarily.

The Chen family thanked Aunt Ji and talked about the kindness of the old lady of the Pei family to her.

Yu Tang listened and observed his surroundings.

She found that she hadn't seen a flower of any other color along the way.

It can be seen that the third master has ordered a ban at this time, and no one dares to disobey it on the surface.

Yu Tang was even more worried.

It's just that I don't know how the third master of the Pei family got to the throne?

Did you take Mrs. Pei's will to force everyone to comply? Or did Master Pei San coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes before the rumors of Lu Xin and others came out?

She was absent-minded, and when she heard the movement, she found that she and her mother had followed Aunt Ji into a courtyard where the crying was shaking, and many neighbors like them were crying here. The water and land dojos on both sides are long and long, chanting with rhyme, the three-legged copper tripod incense that is taller than a person is like a forest, and the white smoke is curling, if it weren't for the white flags hanging everywhere, she almost thought that she had entered a temple.

Chen choked and coughed a few times.

Aunt Ji said: "Please follow me!" ”

The women who led them through the many weeping spirits entered the side hall, kowtowed to the portrait of Mrs. Pei in the middle hall, and offered incense.

When he got up, Yu Tang looked at the portrait of Old Lady Pei seriously.

Three strands of long hair, lying silkworm eyebrows, almond eyes, wide forehead and plump cheeks, wearing a round-necked shirt with blue-green woven gold five-manta flowers, smiling, looking very kind.

I don't know who painted this painting, but the craftsmanship is very good. Not to mention the lifelike faces, the subtle expressions are drawn. Even if Yu Tang doesn't know much about painting, he can feel the skills of this painter.

I don't know who painted it?

When Old Lady Pei painted this portrait, would he have thought that after his death, the Pei family would make a fuss about fighting for the sect master?

It can be seen that the world is impermanent.

Yu Tang suddenly became a little sad in the crying spirit.

Her eyes were moist and tears flowed.

Chen cried uncontrollably.

Yu Tang and Aunt Ji carried Chen out of the side hall left and right.

Aunt Ji thought for a while, called a maid named "Tired Branch", and instructed her: "This is the lady and eldest lady of Yu Xiucai's family, you led the lady and the eldest lady to the back room to rest first." He said to Chen, "I still have an errand outside, so I won't accompany you." I'll come back to you later. ”

The room is changed to a side room, which is obviously Aunt Ji taking care of them.

Chen and Yu Tang hurriedly thanked her and said, "Let's just rest in the room." ”

Aunt Ji said in a low voice: "It's okay!" That wing room was originally a guest room for the ladies of the inner house, and there was no arrangement for hospitality, so I gave you a day off, and it didn't matter. ”

This is also the kindness of Aunt Ji.

The mother and daughter thanked and thanked, and when they saw that Aunt Ji was sincere, and another servant woman came to ask Aunt Ji to show her, so it was not good to delay her time, so they responded gratefully, and followed the tired branch to the west corridor.

"Such a good person, how can you say that you just went?!" Chen was still immersed in sadness, wiping his tears with a handkerchief and muttering sighs.

Yu Tang comforted his mother a few words, and looked up to find that they followed the tired branches to a small secluded courtyard.

In the courtyard, the green bamboo stream and the Banqiao spirit stone are very exquisitely arranged, and the sound of crying is faintly heard, which sets off the small courtyard more quietly.

Ti Zhi pushed the door of the west wing, invited Chen and Yu Tang in, and said in a low voice: "Yu family lady, you can rest here first, and I will invite you at lunch." After speaking, he personally poured tea for the two of them.

Yu Tang looked at the black lacquer furniture in this wing room, the azure curtain, and the blue and white porcelain vase was also inserted in the white evening magnolia the size of two bowls, one high and one low, the layout was clean and elegant, neat and comfortable.

The room was changed, she guessed that this should be a resting place for the Pei family's relatives and daughters, Aunt Ji mostly looked at her father as a showman, and her mother was weak and talkative, so she opened a back door and arranged their mother and daughter here.

Chen took the tea and thanked the tired branch warmly.

Yu Tang thought that Aunt Ji could let this tired branch do things, this tired branch must have a good relationship with Aunt Ji, she took the tea of the tired branch, thanked her, "I'm tired of Sister Tizhi", and said: "We can rest here, it's all thanks to Aunt Ji and Sister Tizhi." After a few days, Aunt Ji and Sister Tizhi are not busy, and we will come to thank you again. ”

Ti Zhi didn't expect Yu Xiucai's mother and daughter to be so polite to her, and couldn't help but look at Yu Tang a few more times.

Yu Tang is ordinary, medium tall, with soft eyebrows and eyes, gentle temperament, and delicate skin is even more frosty and snowy, as if congealed fat.

Tired branches.

Miss Yu turned out to be a great beauty who did not lose to the wives and ladies of the Pei family.

Yu Tang turned out to be a generous character, but later he had some unbelievable encounters, and he was even more humble and calm in his actions.

She let the tired branches watch.

Ti Zhi was a little embarrassed, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "Miss Yu is polite." I will definitely bring your words. ”

"Aunt Ji and Miss Tizhi have hearts!" Chen exchanged a few more words with Ti Zhi, personally sent Ti Zhi out, and then sat down on the Luohan bed in the room with a tired face.

Yu Tang thought that this was the back door opened for them by Aunt Ji, and it would be bad for people to find out. Then he closed the lattice facing the courtyard and opened the one facing outward. And even if it is opened, it is not dared to be fully opened, half of it is open and half is left to cover. Then he went to wring a handkerchief to wipe his sweat for his mother, and said, "Mom, you have a break first, and the tired branches will come to call us at lunch." ”

Chen nodded, and said reluctantly: "If it weren't for my bones, we wouldn't have to ask for a vegetarian meal at Pei's house." said that he came to offer incense to Mrs. Pei, but begged for a meal for their family. ”

Yu Tang comforted his mother: "The Pei family is Zhong Mingding's food family, and they won't care about these two meals." ”

Chen Shi saw that Yu Tang's forehead was covered with sweat, and said distressedly: "Don't force yourself." If you feel hot, find a place to rest and cool off, but don't come to incense Mrs. Pei, but you will be warmed. ”

"Got it!" Yu Tang responded, brought a small wooden pestle over, and wanted to help Chen's legs.

Chen was surprised and delighted, and said, "Ouch! It's amazing, I've never enjoyed such a blessing as a girl! ”

Oh, yes!

In the past, she was ignorant and did not know how to cherish.

Now I know how precious such a gathering is.

Yu Tang's eyes were astringent, and he coquettishly revealed the matter, and sat next to Chen's leg to pinch her leg.

While enjoying her daughter's filial piety, Chen chatted with her: "People say that the blessed are born in June, and the unblessed die in June...... How many good things has Mrs. Pei done...... Fortunately, the two masters were at home, and their sons were by their side when they left. But it's not good, the white-haired person sends the black-haired person, and the big man is gone......"

Yu Tang went in and out of his left ear and out of his right ear, thinking about the mountain forest tea houses and street wharves with "Pei" all written on them, and thought with emotion: Is it because the Pei family is doing a little good?

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.

Chen and Yu Tang were stunned.

Yu Tang thought of Aunt Ji's words, and whispered to Chen: "You sit down first, I'll take a look!" ”
