Delicate Flower - Chapter 150

[Chapter 149]

Yu Wen came back very late and was very drunk.

Yu Tang, who had been keeping an eye on her father’s whereabouts, heard the news, and while helping A Tiao to support Yu Wen, who could not stand still,

she said, “Father , did you go to buy the land of the Li family?”

When I went to buy the land of the Li family, I felt that the water from the land could not bypass the canals of the Li family and the Li family’s ancestral house. If the water was cut off by the Li family, the land would be abandoned.

In the future, the involvement with the Li family will be too deep and troublesome.

Yu Wen smiled, very proud, and stretched out three fingers towards Yu Tang, inarticulately said: “It’s thirty acres, I bought thirty acres.” Then he rubbed Yu Tang’s brain vigorously, “It’s all yours, it’s all for you.”

A warm current flowed through Yu Tang’s heart, but this warm current was quickly replaced by confusion.

She helped her father to the yard with difficulty, and said, “Dad, didn’t you say that Mr. Wu bought the big head and you bought the small head? Why did you suddenly buy 30 acres? Also, what about the irrigation of the 50 acres of land? Do you? Did you agree with the Li family before making the contract?”

“You can rest assured!” Yu Wen pushed A Tiao and Yu Tang away, staggering to go into the house by himself, “The three masters have all arranged for me. , the Li family’s ancestral house also agreed, and Master Wu only needs twenty acres of land…”

Why is this matter still related to Pei Yan?

Yu Tang was stunned, and after a while, he came back to his senses, wanting to ask his father what was going on.

Yu Wen had already entered the inner room with one foot high and one foot low, shouting Chen’s boudoir name, “I’m drunk, why don’t you come and help me in”, making Chen’s face red and hiding. Do not want to come out in the inner room.

She had to touch her forehead and go back to her room, thinking about going to the door of the main room early the next morning to block Yu Wen.

Never thought that Yu Wen had already left the door early.

Yu Tang looked at the white fish belly that had just appeared in the sky, and said in surprise, “So early?!”

Chen Shi’s face was tired, and he smiled helplessly: “I said that I made an appointment with Master Wu, and I want to see the Li family’s land. .”

In this way, my mother already knew that my father bought 30 acres of paddy fields in Li Duan’s family.

Yu Tang said, “Did Dad say anything else?”

“No.” Mrs. Chen said, “He just went crazy last night while drinking, so what can he say?” After speaking, his ears turned red.

Yu Tang didn’t notice, and accompanied her mother to breakfast.

Yu Wen returned with a face full of excitement.

When he entered the door, he said to Yu Tang and Mrs. Chen: “That’s it! The 30 acres of paddy fields that can grow green rice belong to our family. Mr. Pei San didn’t come forward, and asked Mr. Pei to help him. The water canal on the other side of the house draws water, and the Pei family can also help take care of it on weekdays. I looked at the steward of Li Duan’s family, and his face was not very good.” After that, he deliberately rubbed his daughter’s head. , said, “I didn’t expect that I would be able to enjoy the blessings of our family A Tang so early!”

What is this all about!

Yu Tang glared at his father.

Yu Wen didn’t take it seriously, sat down next to the Chen family with a smile, and took advantage of Mrs. Chen’s time to bring him porridge and explained, “I didn’t know that the paddy fields next to Li’s house belonged to Pei’s family, so I went to invite Pei San. The master helped me to talk about it. Master Pei San only said that I could buy the land with confidence, and I should contact him if I had anything. At first I thought he was going to advise the people of the Li family to not embarrass us in the future, but who knew it was actually in Peijiaqu Dig a hole in the head. This is much better than signing a contract with the Li family. In the future, if the Li family regrets it, will I not go to the Li family with the contract every time? However, I also regret it a little. Lin’an is the best The 200 acres of paddy fields are in the hands of the Li family, the Pei family has fields next to the Li family, and the Li family wants to sell the land, maybe the Pei family also wants to buy it

. , Yu Wen sighed and said with emotion: “The Pei family is really generous and kind.”

Yu Tang said, “Is it because of this, Master Wu only bought 20 acres of land. And the 20 acres of land are in our family and In the middle of the Pei family.”

“How do you know?” Yu Wen asked curiously.

The villain in Yu Tang’s heart rolled his eyes at Yu Wen.

But as my father said, things have come to this point, and it is useless to say more.

Yu Wen also brought a piece of news that was very different from his previous life: “I heard from Master Wu that the Li family might move to Hangzhou City after October.”

Both Yu Tang and Chen Shi were shocked.

People leave hometown.

Idle people will not leave their hometown easily.

Mrs. Chen hurriedly said: “Who said that? Why did the Li family move to Hangzhou City?”

Yu Wen said: “Master Wu heard what the Li family’s steward said. The steward also said that the Li family was already in Hangzhou City before. I bought a house here, and quietly transported some household items to Hangzhou City. It will only be moved when the ancestors are sacrificed on the first day of October. As for Li Duan, he will also go to the capital to study with Mr. Li. Isn’t he raising people? Next year is going to be a big competition, he is right to go to Beijing early, there should be no leave.”

Jinshi is tested every three years, counting the days, it is also the year of the big competition.

Chen shi nodded and talked to Yu Wen about how the newly purchased 30 acres of land was planted.

Yu Tang’s thoughts drifted to nowhere.

In the previous life, Li Duan didn’t play twice in a row, and he won the Jinshi title on the gold list in the first play.

Pei Tong, the eldest young master of the Pei family, and a side member named Pei Chan and Li Duan became Jinshi together.

Lin’an produced three jinshi in one session, which caused a stir in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Now the situation has changed. If Li Duan ends early, I don’t know if he can pass the Jinshi examination in one game?

If he went to study in the capital, she would definitely find it difficult to meet him again in the future, let alone take revenge. Could it be that she just let Li Duan leave Lin’an like this?

Is Liu Xiaoshan’s death just like that?

Yu Tang was not reconciled.

She felt that a person like Li Duan was not worthy of being an official at all, nor was he worthy of making achievements in his career.

Before, she felt that she still had time, but now that she thinks about it, everything should be arranged as soon as possible.

Yu Tang frowned.

In terms of career, let alone her, even if her father came forward, it would be impossible to do anything to Li Duan.

In life, the marriage of the Li family and the Gu family is over.

Although the Li family is selling land now, it has nothing to do with her, and the Li family is only short of money temporarily. As long as Li Yi is still an official, the Li family will soon be able to tide over the difficulties.

Unless the Li family is no longer an official.

Thoughts flashed, Yu Tang remembered something.

In the previous life, Li Yi had an accident five years later, that is, Li Duan was admitted to the jinshi, and the second year he chose Shujishi.

When he was in the prefect of Rizhao, he handled a case of adultery and adultery between the widow’s sister-in-law and her brother-in-law.

Li Yi sentenced the widowed sister-in-law to death, and the younger brother-in-law was exiled for three thousand miles.

The uncle was weak and died on the way.

As a result, five years later, the widowed sister-in-law’s son grew up and beat drums at the gate of Dali Temple to complain about his grievances.

It is said that the widow’s sister-in-law did not commit adultery or adultery with her brother-in-law at all, but the widow’s sister-in-law, the old man of a big family named Li in Rizhao, was beaten by the brother-in-law.

It’s a case of injustice.

When the news came out, Li Yi’s reputation was damaged.

The Gu family came forward to turn the tide, and in the end Li Yi was fined three months’ salary and finished.

People outside said that the big family surnamed Li was malicious, and they scolded the big family Li for not dying.

The Li family was not allowed to talk about it.

Yu Tang overheard Gu Xi’s dowry-in-law and wet nurse privately complaining that Lin’s treatment of Gu Xi was harsh, and imitated Gu Xi’s tone to ridicule Li Yi, “I have shallow eyelids, and I think I’m really someone else when I listen to a few words of flattery. I’m an elder, and I don’t know the importance of silver when I see it.”

At that time, she thought that the old woman was just trying to hold injustice for Gu Xi, but now she looks back and thinks about it carefully, these words have a lot of reason.

Mrs. Tang is still a talented lady. In order to curry favor with Tang Zhifu, she is rushing to climb relatives with Tang Zhifu.

Rizhao’s Li Dahu and Li Yi share the same surname, and maybe, like Mrs. Tang, they have a relationship with Li Yi.

If Li Dahu wanted to frame his widowed sister-in-law and brother-in-law, he couldn’t do it without Li Yi’s help.

“I don’t know the weight when I see the money”, maybe it means that Li Yi received the money from the big family of Li.

It’s a pity that she paid too much attention to Lin’s likes and dislikes at that time. Lin’s forbid others to discuss this matter, so she really didn’t ask anything.

Counting the time, the case of widowed sister-in-law and brother-in-law should have been decided when Li Yikuai left Rizhao.

The people in Lin’an City all said that Li Yi asked Li Jun to bring the rut into the ground… Maybe it really has something to do with this?

Thinking of this, Yu Tang patted his head.

This is just nonsense.

If Li Yi had such a large sum of money in his hand, why would he sell the 50 acres of Yongye Field that could produce green rice.

wrong!

Yu Tang groaned in his heart.

If the Li family wants to whitewash the money, they can also sell the fifty acres of Yongye Field.

Her heart was pounding.

In the previous life, the Li family did not sell the fifty acres of Yongye Field.

However, when Gu Xi got married, Lin’s family told others how rich Gu Xi’s dowry was and how much benefit the Li family got.

Did Gu Xi really bring so much dowry in?

Yu Tang vigorously recalled the details of Gu Xi’s life.

Gu Xi’s vision is quite high, and his clothes are mainly elegant, solemn and appropriate.

Although she adds clothes and jewelry every year, those clothes are only worn when she needs to come out for entertainment. She usually wears half-new clothes and a few pieces of jewelry that she likes very much at home.

In the eyes of outsiders, her clothes are never the same, and every time she shows up, she is bright and beautiful, which is not only praised, but also imitated by many people.

In the eyes of the servants of the Li family, Gu Xi is simple and generous, diligent and thrifty, and never stingy with the money that should be used, but he is unwilling to spend a penny on the money that should not be used.

In Gu Xi’s words, this is the principle and the bottom line.

Yu Tang sneered.

She didn’t know it before, thinking that this is how rich people live.

Now let’s look at Pei Lao’an again.

People themselves are not good at wearing bright clothes during the period of filial piety, so they pay to dress up the younger generation in the family, and even people like her who are beside them benefit from it… Gu Xi is such a rich family!

It is clear that the money is limited, but he wants to make a rich appearance, and he just puts money on his face.

Thinking of this, Yu Tang made a new discovery.

In the previous life, Lin Shi had no good words for Gu Xi, but he was generous with money.

Especially after the Li family and the Lin family made money from doing business at sea, and knowing that Gu Xi discovered Li Duan’s nasty thoughts about her, they often called Jinlou’s master to come to the house to make jewelry for Gu Xi, not to mention He bought several shops in Hangzhou and the capital and recorded them in Gu Xi’s name.

She thought that the Lin family was compensating Gu Xi for her son, but she wanted to come now, but she might not.
