Delicate Flower - Chapter 167

[Chapter 166 Cloak]

Pei Yan returned to the Ouhetang where he lived in another courtyard, but looked unhappy.

There are still many things for him to make decisions in the Pei Mansion, but he pushed it all to Pei Man and went up the mountain like this.

First, he was worried about his mother and wanted to see how her old man was doing here; second, he wanted to hide from those who came to him in the name of greeting him.

Another official Shang Zhezi asked the emperor to set up the emperor, and the court and the public were moved by the wind, and the Jiangnan official family was even more turbulent in private.

When the Pei family chose to settle in Lin’an, it was because they liked the occlusion and quietness of Lin’an City. How could he allow the Pei family to be involved again?

This sort of thing happens every few years.

He was one of the trendsetters in the past, and he experienced unparalleled joy in it.

But since his father’s death, he suddenly felt that all these upheaval were boring.

Pei Yan looked at the snow-sweeper in the courtyard and sighed softly.

He really wants to live in seclusion in the mountains in the future.

It’s okay now, in another ten years, it is estimated that no one will remember him.

However, before he really retired, he had to do a good job with his second brother’s recovery, and those relationships in Beijing couldn’t fade away at this time.

He called Pei Qi to come over and ask, “How much silver tael do you have at home?”

“The bank in Tianjin has not been touched since the old man went.” Pei Qi whispered, “There are 100,000 taels of silver.”

Pei Yan thought for a while, then turned back to the study to draw up a list and handed it to Pei Qi: “Give the list to Shu Qing, and then listen to his dispatch.”

Shu Qing was the master who followed him back to Lin’an, and now he is his advisor .

Pei Qi respectfully complied with the promise and withdrew.

Pei Yan lay on the rocking chair.

Aming cleverly took a blanket and put it on his lap.

Pei Yan ignored A Ming and closed his eyes, but his mind was spinning fast.

The money from Tianjin is transferred to Beijing to give gifts, but the money from Lin’an City is not enough to spend.

He spent too much money in the farm this year, but the income was not large, and he could not see that it would take a few years to recover the investment.

The best thing to do is to call the pawnshop’s dead pawn to respond.

This matter has to be discussed with the shopkeeper Tong Da.

Shopkeeper Tong Da was the one left to him by his father. He only talked to him once when he first took over the Pei Mansion. It was

already over a year old, so he had to find a chance to talk to Shopkeeper Tong again.

Pei Yan thought about it, and suddenly thought of Yu Tang’s cloak.

He remembered that when he was young, there were always very good leathers in the pawnshop, so he could ask the shopkeeper Tong and bring it over to Miss Yu to keep out the cold.

Thinking of this, Yu Tang’s face as white as the first snow appeared in his mind.

The old skin… doesn’t seem to be very good…

I’d better find a way to get her some new skin.

There should be something in his warehouse…

Pei Yan is someone who just thinks of it. He immediately asked Aming to send someone back to the city to open his own warehouse: “Let’s see if there is a suitable cloak for Miss Yu. I was negligent before. Now, I just wanted to invite her over to accompany Lao An, but I forgot…”

After all, the Yu family has a simple family style, and even if they get a fortune, they can’t start making clothes like those upstarts. Jewelry, spend money like land to live.

However, Miss Yu has something to say.

If the remaining 150 acres of Li Duan’s family’s fertile land that can grow green rice is given to the Yu family, the Yu family will be able to live a prosperous life from now on, and Miss Yu will probably be happier.

Pei Yan said again: “I want to write a letter and arrange for someone to grind ink.”

As for Rizhao, it is too slow to just entrust the people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. They handle too many major cases every day.

He might as well write a letter to the governor of Shandong. There is such a big case on their side. If they report it on their own, they will have a reputation for being a powerful inspector. It doesn’t look good.

Aming is busy making arrangements.

Pei Yan has already thought about the wording, and when the ink is finished, he starts to write a letter.

Of course Yu Tang was concerned about the ranking of her poems, but she didn’t want to ask when Gu Xi had a chance to discuss poems with her.

Lest Gu Xi talk endlessly in front of him like a previous life, like a female master.

However, this also has a lot to do with her understanding of what is most important in this life.

So she was on her way back. Seeing that Gu Xi was always around Lao An, when she had no energy or time to pay attention to her, she quietly asked Fifth Miss: “Who are the third and fourth?”

Fifth Miss pursed her lips .

She smiled and said, “Sister Yu and I are tied for third.” She also told her, “The fifth is the second sister, and the fourth sister is the last.”

Yu Tang was a little surprised.

She thought that Second Miss would be ahead of her.

The fifth lady smiled and said: “Ms. Gu’s poems are the best, they are fast and artistic, everyone voted for her first, and the third sister’s loss is not as far-reaching as Miss Gu’s. Sister Yu’s poems are also well done, but in The rhyme is not as rigorous as Miss Gu and the third sister, so she ranked third with me. My mother thinks the second sister’s poem is too rigid and lacks aura, and the fourth sister just finished writing it at the end.”

Yu Tang’s face slightly red.

Gu Xi was enlightened at the age of three, and she went to school with her brothers since she was a child. Even her two generations could not catch up.

The third miss’s poetry is better than her, and the fifth miss is the youngest but tied for third with her. It can be seen that the two aunts are very smart in reading.

She sincerely praised: “You and Miss Third are both amazing!”

Miss Fifth blushed and said humbly, “No, no. It’s just that I’m good at the questions that happened to be asked.”

Yu Tang didn’t argue with Fifth Young Lady, but just smiled and patted her head.

Miss Fifth lowered her head embarrassedly.

Therefore, neither of them noticed that the third young lady walking in front of them had red ears.

In the evening, having dinner at Lao’an people, Yu Tang thought that Lao’an people would let them talk.

Who would have known that the old woman had just received the table, and the old man brought tea and sent the guests.

Yu Tang and the others couldn’t hide their surprise.

The old man said straightforwardly: “When your third uncle wants to come over to greet me, I won’t leave you.”

A few juniors stood up obediently to say goodbye, but Yu Tang and the others didn’t stay much, so everyone went back to their residences.

Early the next morning, Lao An asked them to say hello when the hour was over.

Yu Tang asked why.

Liu Xu, who came to report the letter, smiled and said, “Master San is going to greet Lao An people early in the morning.”

Yu Tang suddenly realized.

After breakfast, Aming came over with a bag.

Yu Tang was very surprised and kept asking him what was the matter.

A Ming smiled and put a bag in Shuang Tao, saying, “This is what our third master asked me to send over, and the third master is still waiting for me to answer!” ran away.

“What is this?” Shuangtao muttered, carrying the burden into the house.

When I opened the bag, I saw that it was actually a kesi and white mink fur cloak made of water-green phoenix tails.

“This…” Yu Tang picked up the cloak in surprise.

The unique texture of kesi glitters gorgeously in the unknown indoor light.

“It’s so beautiful!” Shuangtao couldn’t help but marvel.

Yu Tang felt uneasy.

Why did Pei Yan give her a cloak?

She instructed Shuangtao: “Go and see what Aming is doing? Why did the third master send me a cloak?”

And it was a woman’s style.

Shouldn’t be temporary.

Shuang Tao also felt inappropriate.

If the third master has the heart, he can ask Lao An to pass it on to the young lady.

Now it was delivered in private like this…

She hurriedly went to find Aming.

Yu Tang dressed up and leaned on the bedside to read before Shuang Tao returned in the snow.

“Miss!” She didn’t want to go back to the room to change her clothes, so she entered the inner room with a chill, “Among followed the third master to Lao’an, and I found a chance to talk to him. He said, yes Seeing that the young lady’s cloak is thin, the third master specially sent someone back to Pei’s house to get it overnight. He also said that if you don’t like it, you can use it for a few days, and then he will find someone to help you make one, and let me ask you what you like. Color?”

Are you in a hurry to get out?

Yu Tang was a little taken aback.

Is it still a little cold to see her wearing a cloak today?

Should she take this cloak or not?

If you don’t accept it, you will betray the good intentions of the third master.

Take it, it’s too precious, and she feels uneasy.

However, the cape was really nice and she liked it very much.

Yu Tang couldn’t make up his mind.

Thought it would be nice if her mother was here.

She can ask her mother.

Yu Tang rubbed the raised pattern on the Kesi with her fingertips, frowning tangled.

Gu Xi also packed up and sat in front of the desk reading a book in his spare time.

It’s just that when He Xiang came to answer her, her fingers clenched the pages of the book, almost breaking the book.

“Miss Yu’s personal maid, Shuang Tao, went to find the book boy who is the third master’s personal girl?” Her face was so cloudy that it seemed that it was about to rain, and it looked a little distorted in the flickering light.

“Yeah!” He Xiang replied in a low voice, “The two of them hid behind the flower tree and pulled and pulled for a long time before the pair of peaches left. Then Aming ran to see the third master.”

Gu Xi asked, “At that time the three Where is the master?”

“Still in Lao An’s house.” He Xiang replied.

Gu Xi’s brows were locked, and her tone was very cold: “Then what?”

He Xiang stammered: “Then after Aming went in, about a cup of tea, Aming followed the third master from Lao’an’s house. When he came out, UU read www.sonicmtl.com and went back to the Lotus Hall where he lived.”

Gu Xi was stunned, and said, “After returning to the Lotus Hall, didn’t you go to Miss Yu’s place again?” He

Xiang paused and said, “I I came back after standing there for a while, I don’t know…” Will anyone go there after that.

And she didn’t want to follow her any more. In such a cold day, if you were not careful, people would freeze to death.

Fortunately, Gu Xi didn’t say anything, just waved her hand and let her back down.

That night, Gu Xi didn’t sleep well and kept thinking about why Shuang Tao went to find Aming.

But the next morning, when she went to greet Lao An, she knew.

At that time, there was only Yu Tang in the house, and the people who served in the house didn’t know where they went. Because she was familiar with everyone in Lao’an’s house during this time, the woman at the door didn’t stop her when she entered. As if entering the realm of no one, directly into the hall.

I was wondering why there was no one in the room, if I wanted to make some noise, I heard Lao An’s voice: “…he started to learn to manage household affairs after his father left, and he never cared about these things before. , it is inevitable that there will be rudeness, please don’t take it to heart.”
