Chapter 20: Someone from My Uncle's Family
Tang Jiao didn't say anything about the business with the Yu family, so that she was talked about by Tang Jiude at the dinner table that night.
"I heard you're still hiring? Don't understand what you're doing. ”
"Didn't you let Xiao Gu go to your side? Did you take him to the top grade? ”
"If I really can't do it, I'll sell this face and go to meet the people from the Yu family."
Everyone was eating, only he was talking, and Tang Jiao caught a glimpse of the displeasure between Chen Peiyao's eyebrows.
"The Yu family's side has already done it." Before Chen Peiyao spoke, Tang Jiao still spoke.
"Already done? When was it done? Why don't you tell me? Hey, what a great event. ”
"It's worthy of being my daughter, just like me, she has climbed to the Yu family, and our Tang family is about to come out."
Tang Jiao didn't speak, Tang Jiude was happy alone, and the more he talked, the more interested he became, and asked people to bring the wine up and ask for two glasses.
Tang Jiao and Chen Peiyao had already eaten, and neither of them was too lazy to take care of him, put down the dishes and chopsticks back and forth, and then left the dining room together.
Over time, they had become accustomed to walking together after dinner.
At first, the two of them didn't speak, and it wasn't until they walked out for a long time that Chen Peiyao asked, "The person you brought out today is called Xiao Gu?" ”
"Brother has seen someone?"
"Hmm."
The hand on Tang Jiao's side subconsciously clenched.
In her previous life, although she didn't know much about the affairs of the court, she also knew that Gu Youwei's party and Chen Peiyao were fighting fiercely.
But that was many years later, and now that the two met in advance, I don't know if there will be a grudge in advance.
Seeing that she didn't speak much, Chen Peiyao glanced at her and asked again, "You don't like that person?" ”
I didn't see Tang Jiao in the morning, and she didn't give that person a good look.
"Well, I don't like it."
After a pause, Tang Jiao said again: "Didn't the Zhou family find me a Qi tycoon last time without success?" This time I found this person again, and the Zhou family really wanted me to marry out immediately. ”
Chen Peiyao's footsteps stopped for a moment, and Tang Jiao didn't see him raise his eyebrows slightly.
"This kind of person, annoyingly tight."
She complained, as if she had regarded Chen Peiyao as someone to talk to.
"If there is no second room in this house, why would I work so hard?"
"It's all their fault, just eat us and drink us, just hold a grateful heart, why do you always calculate here and there? I've never seen such a shameless person in the world! ”
In the previous life, before her death, Tang Shi'an's family had almost controlled the Tang family, and her confused father was the empty-handed shopkeeper.
In order to save her from offending the scholars of the capital for many generations, the whole family was destroyed, and in Tang Jiude's eyes, the Ming family had no backer, and unscrupulously went to the mansion to take women.
She was imprisoned in the General's Mansion at that time, and the last straw that crushed her was the two sentences that Zhou brought her.
One sentence is: Gu Youwei approached her with a purpose back then.
Another sentence is: Ming's hanging beam committed suicide, a straw mat was hastily buried, and the Tang family did not give Ming's a decent funeral.
At that time, the only thought she had to live was cut off, and the breath she was hanging on was gone.
He was only twenty-five years old before his death.
She hated the second room so much.
If it weren't for their family, why would she, her mother and her younger brother have such an ending in the previous life?
Recalling those things, her whole body was shrouded in a heavy atmosphere, and Chen Peiyao's pace slowed down.
"Do you want their family to leave the Tang Mansion?" He asked.
I didn't realize how careful and soft the tone was.
Tang Jiao nodded.
Not just to drive out the Tang family?
She can't wait to eat the flesh and eat the blood!
"But the master won't agree." Chen Peiyao told the truth.
Tang Jiao naturally knew.
After all, it is brotherhood and life-saving grace, Tang Shi'an is very precious to this younger brother.
Chen Peiyao is not good at comforting people, but at this time, the words that were soothing in his mind have already reached his lips, and Tang Jiao suddenly chuckled.
"But it's okay, sooner or later I'll let them ......"
Realizing that the person next to him was Chen Peiyao, Tang Jiao didn't say the rest of the words.
Chen Peiyao chuckled, and the inexplicable emotions in Fang Cai's heart had disappeared.
"What is my brother laughing at?"
"Laugh at you."
"You're laughing at me for not being self-conscious?" Tang Jiao raised her voice.
Chen Peiyao thought that if he dared to nod, this girl was afraid that she would jump up and beat him.
"Why, I just think it's ......"
He smiled and deliberately didn't finish his words, Tang Jiao really stopped in front of him in a hurry.
Chen Peiyao knocked her forehead with a smile, "Awesome, I think you're awesome." ”
Tang Jiao didn't think that he would praise her, covered her forehead and was stunned for a moment and asked, "Really?" ”
Chen Peiyao snorted, his eyes were smiling, and his expression was soft like a different person, which made Tang Jiao embarrassed for a while.
She looked away first, "That's not as good as my brother." ”
Chen Peiyao smiled and rubbed her head, and continued to walk back with her.
The intimacy that was formed invisibly was not noticed by either of them.
Even if I noticed it, I didn't care about it.
Then the two of them talked about some things along the way, Chen Peiyao sent her back to the yard first, and watched her enter the house before returning to Qinzhuyuan.
In the next few days, Tang Jiao put all her energy on the silk, personally looked at a group of people, and left five weaver girls.
It was another round of new guidance, and when Tang Jiao felt that they could get started, it was already the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The Tang Mansion was also festive.
The day before, Tang Jiao inspected eight works, three of which were satisfactory to her, and gave the people in the weaving workshop a holiday early.
In the Mid-Autumn Festival, she rarely slept for a long time, and when she woke up, she hid in the bed and didn't want to get up.
Lying on the bed to wake up, the fat girl knocked on the door outside.
Before she could answer, the fat girl had already pushed open the door and ran in, with her joy in the air.
"Miss, don't sleep, get up quickly!"
As she spoke, she came up and lifted Tang Jiao's quilt, and Tang Jiao hid in the quilt.
"My young lady, if you sleep again, you will miss greeting your uncle!"
Tang Jiao's originally groggy mind instantly cleared, "What did you say?" ”
"Uncle! Before dawn, the people at the pier sent a message that my uncle came from Fucheng, and it should be time to enter the city, if you go to sleep again, you won't be able to go to the gate to greet you! ”
Tang Jiao still cherished the warm quilt and sat up.
"Why didn't you say it earlier!"
"Hurry up and get me clothes!"
"No, comb your hair first."
In a hurry, he hurried to the gate, but he arrived at the gate before his uncle got out of the carriage.
