Delicate Flower - Chapter 142

[Chapter 141]

When the invitation letter from the Yu family was delivered to Pei Yan, Pei Yan was practicing calligraphy in Shuixie’s study.

The autumn wind blew, and the weeping willow leaves fell into the lake, and a few koi stuck their heads out, chasing the floating willow leaves.

He opened the invitation and glanced at it casually, and asked the servant who sent the invitation, “Did the Yu family say anything else?” The

servant lowered his eyelids and said respectfully, “I didn’t say anything, just said I wanted to visit you tomorrow.

Pei Yan nodded, picked up Xiang Feizhu’s pen again, and said lightly, “Go and tell the chief executive and let him arrange the arrangement.” The

servant

went away in response.

Aming, who was grinding ink for Pei Yan, hesitated for a while, then said softly, “Third Master, are you not going to check the accounts tomorrow? Would you like me to tell Mr. Chen?”

Mr. Chen’s name is Chen Qi, who is officially in charge of Pei Yan. After the Pei Mansion, an accountant hired from outside.

Now he is in charge of the accounts of Pei’s house.

Pei Yan didn’t lift her eyes, and said, “No, Aman knows what to do.”

Aming said “oh”, and buried her head again.

Master San had to write 2,000 small letters every day. At the beginning, he couldn’t lift his hands all day, but now he got used to it, and he felt very relaxed.

In Qingzhu Lane, Yu Wen got a reply and asked Master Wu to come over: “Should we go together tomorrow?”

Master Wu was secretly surprised.

Last night, he also had a drink with a squire surnamed Huang in the city. Master Huang wanted to see Pei Yan about the autumn harvest, but Pei Yan said he wanted to check the account. If the matter was not urgent, let Master Huang go to see Director Pei.

However, Yu Wen just handed in the invitation today, and he will be able to enter the house tomorrow.

It could be seen that Yu Wen and the Pei family were much closer than he thought.

He recalled the scene when the Yu family shop opened.

Pei Yan came to congratulate him in person.

Master Wu looked at Yu Wen calmly.

Still the suave scholar.

Did he underestimate Yu Wen before?

Underestimate the Yu family?

Master Wu touched his head and said, “I won’t go with you tomorrow. You can talk easily without anyone else.

”

Yu Wen was a little embarrassed to go to see Pei Yan.

Pei Yan helped their family so much, and as a result, the silver was gone without 6,000 taels before it was warmed up.

It would be fine if Master Wu wasn’t there tomorrow, lest he wanted to make amends for Pei Yan but couldn’t speak.

The next day, Yu Wen hired a sedan chair and went to Pei Mansion.

After learning about it, Yu Tang couldn’t help complaining: “Dad didn’t say a word when he went to Pei’s house. The peanut cake we made yesterday was even better than the last time.”

Chen Shi smiled and said, “Then let A Tiao run again tomorrow. Go to Pei Mansion.”

Yu Tang nodded.

Pei Yan thought that Yu Wen was here for the 6,000 taels of silver, and wondered how to convince him not to expect Ningbo to return much of his losses.

Who knew that Yu Wen said about Jiang Chao: “He’s a pretty good person, he’s self-motivated, and he keeps his promises honestly. I want me to help you lead a line to see you. I’m not good at taking your idea, no, just come. Ask.” When he mentioned the six thousand taels of silver, he just said that he had failed his good intentions, that he was not expected to do business, and he probably didn’t have such luck in wealth, and added: “Look, although the auction map is a windfall, but It

‘s gone in a blink of an eye.” The

words were quite open-minded.

Pei Yan looked at me with admiration and said, “What does Jiang Chao want to see me?”

Yu Wen also told frankly: “I said I wanted you to say hello to the Ningbo prefect, but I think he still wants to know you. Speaking of your family is a four-class scholar. We locals have forgotten Mr. Wang.”

Pei Yan’s mouth twitched.

It’s not that outsiders have forgotten Pei Wang, but that the Pei family deliberately downplayed his existence.

“I see.” He said, “Since I begged you to come here, it’s not a good idea to see the villagers. You can let him see me again in four or five days. I’m going to Hangzhou City to check in the next few days. A tent.” Then he talked about the last time he saw Yu Tang, “Did she go to Li’s house to watch the fun?”

Yu Wen was stunned.

He and Master Wu also wanted to buy the Li family’s fields behind the Pei family’s back, but they didn’t expect that the third master Pei knew it long ago.

“Watching the fun?” Yu Wen felt guilty, didn’t know how to answer Pei Yan for a while, and said with a dry smile, “How to watch the fun? Their fields were sold in private, so she couldn’t go to the Li’s house to watch, right? Even if she goes, the door of Li’s house is closed, there is nothing to see!”

Pei Yan gave Yu Wen a strange look.

Is the liveliness of the Li family just juggling at the gate?

It’s no wonder that Miss Yu has to come forward in the matter of the Yu family. Although Yu Wen is a scholar, looking at it like this, it is estimated that reading is a bit shrewd.

It would be hard to say anything to him.

Pei Yan was too lazy to continue talking with Yu Wen, and served tea.

Yu Wen didn’t want to stay too long, so he got up and said goodbye.

Pei Yan went to Hangzhou City that afternoon.

Jiang Chao had to wait for Pei Yan to come back at Yu’s house.

Yu Wen and Master Wu were the hosts and took him around for a while.

It’s a pity that Lin’an City is only so big, and I don’t dare to go farther, but after two or three days, there is nothing new to go to.

Jiang Chao has been running around in Jiangsu and Zhejiang all year round, and he can be regarded as a little knowledgeable. Although the scenery of Lin’an is good, it is not unique in the world.

He was thinking about the meeting with Pei Yan a few days later, and he had no intention of continuing to play, so he simply said: “After climbing the mountain for a few days, my legs began to tremble, and my physical strength is not as good as that of the two brothers. Ashamed. I am

ashamed!”

Master Wu heard the words and knew the meaning, and he laughed: “We are also a last-ditch effort to accompany the gentleman. Since Brother Jiang said so, then we will rest for two days, just in time for the return of Master Pei San.”

Jiang Chao rested at Yu Wen’s house, and thought carefully about what to say when he saw Pei Yan, how to impress Pei Yan and make Pei Yan think he was a useful talent.

An opportunity like this may only come once in his life.

He figured it out in his heart for a whole day, and in the afternoon, he couldn’t help but feel dizzy, thinking that it was about to have dinner, he took the servant A Zhou to the hall.

Passing through the patio, he saw a little girl about sixteen or seven years old, wearing a silver-red plain-faced Hang silk robe, a white dress with stitches, black hair, and snow-white skin, who was directing the old woman and her husband of the Yu family. The maid was loading the box, and while loading, she said: “Be careful! You can’t fold the edges and corners. He is the most particular, but if he sees the edges and corners folded, he will probably think that it has been left for several days. Yes, I can’t even taste it.”

Jiang Chao’s eyes fell on the boxes.

It looks like a box for dessert.

It was white and clean, without even a word or pattern.

Gifts should be packed in red boxes, right?

This kind of box seems to be… used during sacrifices.

He couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

The little girl turned around.

He saw a good face.

A pair of eyes cut like water, black and white, clear and bright.

The corners of his mouth grinned happily, like a bee surrounded by flowers.

“This is… Miss Yu?” He asked A Zhou in a low voice.

A Zhou glanced on tiptoe and laughed, and said cheerfully: “Well, it’s the eldest miss of the Yu family. She can make desserts, and the peanut cakes are especially delicious. A Tiao gave it to me two days ago. One.”

Miss Yu was very pretty.

Jiang Chao thought that it was inappropriate for him to stand here like this. He was about to turn and leave when Yu Tang’s eyes swept over inadvertently.

This person is Jiang Chao!

Yu Tang looked at him secretly.

He is quite handsome, but not quite the same as Jiang Ling.

One is thin and weak, the other is tall and confident.

Maybe it’s a difference between men and women?

Yu Tang thought about it, and nodded politely to Jiang Chao.

Jiang Chao hurriedly bowed to Yu Tang, left the patio, and walked quickly to the hall.

Yuwen is not there.

Jiang Chao asked A Zhou in a low voice, “Do you know what Miss Yu is doing? Where are those desserts sent?”

A Zhou smiled and said, “It was the peanut cake made by Miss Yu and sent to Pei Mansion. I heard that Pei Mansion The third master likes to eat it very much. When the general manager of the Pei family came to give the Mid-Autumn Festival gift last time, he also mentioned it. The Yu family received new peanuts, so Miss Yu made a special trip to make this peanut cake and send it over. ”

Jiang Chao” Oh “A sound.

The relationship between the Yu family and the Pei family is actually so good!

When he saw Yu Wen again, he became a little more enthusiastic, and confirmed Pei Yan’s temperament to Yu Wen: “I have inquired some, but everyone can’t tell, it seems that the third master of the Pei family was not in Lin’an very much before, it was Pei Yan After the old man went, he took over the Pei family and lived in Lin’an for a long time. I heard that he is a little moody, is that true?”

Yu Wen frowned and said unhappily: “Who do you hear that Mr. Pei San is moody ?

This is all a rumor! Master Pei San is chivalrous and warm-hearted, just like Mr. Pei, he is very willing to help others. It’s just that he is young and has a bit of spirit…”

Jiang Chao listened absently to him praising Pei Yan, Not quite believing.

If Pei Yan is really such a person, why is Miss Yu so careful about the box for dessert?

Master Yu is either rubbing powder on Pei Yan’s face, or he doesn’t know Pei Yan at all.

Yu Tang’s big smiling eyes suddenly appeared in his mind.

Perhaps, Miss Yu knows more?

He moved in his heart and said, “Brother Yu, I saw that Miss Yu was preparing snacks for the Pei Mansion. Do you know that Mr. Pei likes sweet or salty? Without being rude, you can still impress Mr. Pei San?”

Yu Wen coughed twice, it’s really hard to help him out.

“I’m going to ask the people at home,” he said, “I usually don’t care about these things!”

Jiang Chao thanked him with a smile, and gave A Zhou a wink.

After returning to the guest room after dinner, A Zhou whispered to Jiang Chao: “The list that Master Yu gave you just now, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com is to ask Miss Yu.” It was exactly

as he had intuition.

Then should he find a chance to have a few words with Miss Yu?

Jiang Chao walked back and forth in the room for most of the night, and finally asked Yu Wen to show Yu Tang the gift list that was going to be given to Pei Yan.

Yu Wen didn’t think much, and gave the list to Yu Tang.

Two knives of Xuetao paper, two inkstones of Li Jiahui, two boxes of Wujiahu pens, two sets of Hujiahua fragrant ink ingots, and a pair of boxwood paperweights from Liu Fangzhai… all of them are rare treasures on the four treasures of the study.

Yu Tang smiled and said, “Isn’t that saying that Mr. Jiang doesn’t even have a change of clothes? How can he send things to Pei’s house so generously?”

“It can be seen that he would rather have nothing to eat or drink to have spare energy and be ready to turn over at any time!” Yu Wen said with emotion: “That’s why Dad wants to help him!” He said again, “Every time you give something, I think Mr. Pei San likes it very much, so you can help him look at the gift list. Just now, A Tiao Come back and say, the steward of the Pei family received the peanut cake from them and took it directly to the inner house.”
