Delicate Flower - Chapter 213

[Chapter 211 The Xu Family]

Pei Laoan wanted to meet guests, so it was not appropriate for Chen and others to stay here, so everyone got up and said goodbye.

Lao An thought for a while and said, “It’s the first time I’ve seen the Wu family in Huzhou. You may go to the flower hall first.” The

main reason was that the people of the Wu family would not bring enough greetings, which would bring inconvenience to the female family members of the Wu family.

Everyone knew it well, and went to the flower hall behind the hall with a smile in twos and threes, leaving only the second wife of the Pei family to help Lao An to entertain guests.

The third, fourth and fifth misses of the Pei family have not seen Yu Tang since noon yesterday. At this time, they were extremely happy to meet each other. They dragged Yu Tang and said, “The incense made by Ku’an Temple has been delivered to Zhaoming Temple. , we went to see it last night. It will definitely become famous by then.”

Because the things came with the carriage and horse of the female family members of the Pei family, the Buddhist incense that was going to be given to Zhaoming Temple was placed in the hands of the steward sent by the Pei family. Yu Tang didn’t ask any questions. Unexpectedly, these little girls ran over to see it last night.

She smiled and nodded.

The second Miss Pei family and Yu Tang were not very close. She and Miss Xu were walking behind, looking like they wanted to chat with Miss Xu but didn’t know what to say, so Miss Xu rolled her eyes secretly.

But looking at Young Master Yang’s face, she took the initiative to talk to the second lady: “Did you sleep well last night? I feel that the scent of sandalwood in the wing room kept me awake most of the night. I fell asleep in a daze when I was tired.” After speaking, he pointed to Miss Pei’s family and Yu Tang who were walking in front of them: “I just heard what they said about Buddhist incense, is there anyone in your family who is good at making this? Are there any other scents? Can you give me some? I’ve already asked someone to buy incense, but Lin’an is so small, I don’t know if I can buy a nice scent.”

Second Miss Pei knows how the Xu family is like Of course, they do not want to offend Miss Xu.

Besides, Miss Xu is going to marry into the Yin family, and she is also married to the only son of Yin’s family, a 19-year-old jinshi… She hurriedly said, “The one who is good at making incense is the fiancee of the grandfather in the eldest house, you should also I know, the eldest daughter of the second room of the Gu family in Hangzhou.” She whispered, and told Miss Xu that they helped Ku’an Temple make Buddhist incense.

Miss Xu’s eyes rolled when she heard it. After the second lady finished speaking, she said “oh” and said, “I don’t know this Miss Gu. However, I know Gu Chaoyang from the Gu family. What is his relationship with this Miss Gu? ?”

Second Miss Pei smiled and said, “She is Gu Chaoyang’s sister.”

Miss Xu said “oh” again, and said, “If I remember correctly, their wife is filling in the house? It’s just not. Do you know which girl it is from?”

She didn’t have an impression, she was definitely not from everyone, and she had heard people say that

the wife of the second room of the Gu family had very little vision, her husband couldn’t study well, and she also suppressed a few concubines. Now the second room There is no talent.

If it wasn’t for Gu Chang, I’m afraid he would have been out of the Jiangnan family long ago.

Second Miss Pei was very curious about how she knew Gu Chang.

Miss Xu said, “He and Yin Mingyuan belong to the same department.”

Yin Mingyuan?

!

Miss Xu’s fiance.

Second Miss Pei looked at Miss Xu.

Miss Xu nodded, not showing any shyness, but said generously: “I heard that Gu Chaoyang is only eight buckets tall and looks better than Pan An. When Yin Mingyuan went to participate in the poetry meeting, he asked him to take me to see it. It feels okay. , not as good-looking as Yin Mingyuan, but stronger than Yin Mingyuan.”

Second Miss Pei has seen someone who is arrogant, but she has never seen someone more arrogant than Miss Xu, so she didn’t know how to answer for a while.

The fourth young lady who was walking in front suddenly turned her head and said with a “wow”, “Sister Xu is so amazing, she actually dared to attend the poetry meeting of the scholars.”

Miss Xu waved her hand in disapproval and said, “Yin Mingyuan has been in her family since she was a child. Our family is studying, and I ask him to take me to a poetry party, what a great thing!”

It’s amazing to have a fiancé agree to take her a woman to a poetry party!

Several young ladies of the Pei family looked at her with admiration.

Yu Tang’s attention was focused on the word “Yin”. She looked at the young ladies of the Pei family, thought for a moment, pulled the third young lady, and said in a low voice, “What is the origin of the Xu family? That Yin Mingyuan is again. Who?”

Miss Xu quickly glanced at Miss Xu, saw that she was talking to the other young ladies, and hurriedly said in a low voice, “Miss Xu’s great-grandfather was the Prince Taibao, Minister of Officials, great-grandfather and great-uncle. They have all served as first assistants, and now the Xu family is headed by his father, who is a scholar of Wuyingdian University and minister of the Ministry of War; an uncle who is the political envoy of Shaanxi, and an uncle who used to be the censor of the Imperial Court, but was transferred this spring. The salt transport envoy of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Yin Mingyuan is her fiancé, Shuji, who observes politics in the Ministry of Punishment.”

It took a while for Yu Tang to understand.

In other words, the old lady of the Li family and Mrs. Yang San are both girls from Miss Xu’s future husband’s family.

No wonder she was so respectful to Mrs. Yang San.

Seeing that Miss Xu was still talking to her sisters, Miss Pei San quickly said: “She is an old woman. Although Yin Mingyuan is good at reading, he is not in good health. The marriage between the Xu and Yin families is determined by the older generation. I came down. I heard that Mrs. Xu was very dissatisfied, and she let out her words, saying that Miss Xu was fortune-telling, and that Miss Xu should not marry early, so she had to keep her until she was 20 years old. The two have not married yet.

” die?

The Xu family is really sturdy!

The little person in Yu Tang’s heart wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced behind him quickly, and continued to gossip with Miss San: “Then the Yin family won’t say anything?”

Miss Pei pursed her lips and smiled and said, “Yin Mingyuan likes it. Miss Xu, don’t marry unless she is.”

“Ah!” Yu Tang exclaimed, subconsciously suppressing her voice, and involuntarily glanced behind her again.

This time, she didn’t have the good luck she had before, and she met Miss Xu’s eyes.

Yu Tang smiled at Miss Xu with a guilty conscience.

Miss Xu rolled her eyes, left a few Miss Pei and walked over quickly, took Yu Tang’s arm, and said with a smile, “Did my sister ask others about me? I don’t like the smell of sandalwood in the temple, my sister gave it to me. I have some other scents!”

Yu Tang smiled at her embarrassedly, and said, “I don’t like scented incense, I like scented dew. How about I’ll give you half a bottle of scented dew first? Go out this time. , I only brought one bottle.”

This fragrance was the gift that Yu Wen and Mr. Wu brought her when they went to Ningbo last time.

It is said to be a rose scent, and it smells pretty good.

But the scented dew must be sealed well, otherwise it will not be fragrant soon.

Fortunately, they only lived in the temple for three or five days, otherwise even if she gave her half a bottle of fragrance, it is estimated that there would be no bottle.

Miss Xu smiled and said, “Oh, I finally met someone who likes fragrance dew as much as I do. I’ll go get it from you after lunch.”

Yu Tang felt that her expression didn’t look like she was going to get fragrance dew. It’s

like going to explore

the secret… However, since she agreed, even if Miss Xu went to her place to explore the secret, Yu Tang could only bite the bullet and receive her.

Everyone quickly sat down in the flower hall.

Several young ladies of the Pei family were busy doing their filial piety in front of their grandmothers.

Fifth Miss followed Yu Tang.

Mrs. Yang San was sitting beside Mr. Yi Lao’an, chatting with Mr. Yi, and listening to the tone, the elders in the family seemed to be colleagues with Mr. Yi.

Miss Xu looked left and right, and also stood with Fifth Miss and Yu Tang.

She asked the fifth lady: “When is lunch at your house?” The

fifth lady shook her head and said, “I don’t know.”

Miss Xu looked helpless and asked, “Then what time does your family usually have lunch?”

The fifth lady said, “There is a quarter of an hour difference at noon.”

Miss Xu nodded

with satisfaction, took out a golden pocket watch from her pocket, opened it with a “snap”, looked at it, and said with some reluctance, “It’s still an hour away.”

It stuck to Miss Xu’s pocket watch, and the fifth lady said, “Is this a pocket watch? It’s so beautiful.”

Miss Xu nodded slightly, stretched out her hand and said, “Would you like to take a look?” The

fifth lady hurriedly shook her head and said: “My father also has one. It’s just that I have never seen such a small one.”

Yu Tang saw Li Duan use it in a previous life, and like Fifth Young Lady, he had never seen such a small one.

Miss Xu said indifferently: “It was specially made by someone, and

it went quite accurately.” The fifth lady said, “Are you hungry? Why don’t I ask Ah Shan to bring you some snacks? ”

No need.” Miss Xu sighed, looking very bored, and said sullenly, “I’m not hungry, I just want to know when we can leave. I want to go to Sister Yu and see what kind of incense she brings.” Come here.”

You might as well say that you are impatient with such a party!

Yu Tang and Fifth Young Lady both gave her a roll of eyes.

She giggled and asked Fifth Miss: “Has your big brother come? Do you know where you live?”

Fifth Miss said: “Not only my big brother is here, but my second cousin and my brother are also here. Of course they are I live in the outer courtyard! But I didn’t ask where you live. What are you going to do? Do you want me to find a steward to ask.”

Miss Xu and them whispered: “The Yang family has blown your big brother into the sky, saying that he is three times younger than you. My uncle is even more talented, and I want to see what he looks like.”

Fifth Young Lady was taken aback and muttered, “More talented than my third uncle?”

Why does this sound so awkward?

Yu Tang thought of those things in his previous life, and felt that the Yang family was building momentum for Pei Tong.

In her previous life, she didn’t know who Pei Tong married, but he was married in the capital.

This life has changed a lot, and I don’t know if Pei Tong will still follow the old path of the previous life.

Seeing this, Miss Xu asked Fifth Miss: “Then do you know when your third uncle comes to greet Pei Lao’an every day?”

Fifth Miss asked, “Why are you inquiring about this?”

Miss Xu did not care. Said: “I’ll just ask.”

Yu Tang glanced at Miss Xu.

Miss Xu laughed, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com said to Yu Tang and Fifth Miss: “I saw a pomegranate tree outside when I just came here, shall we go pick pomegranates?”

Fifth Miss and Yu Tang looked at the house The female relatives, Qi Qi shook her head.

Miss Xu decided to go by herself.

Yu Tang felt that the current Zhaoming Temple was very complicated, so he grabbed Miss Xu and said, “When Master Wuming prays for us, should we write our name and birthdate as usual? What if someone flips it?”

The eight characters of the birthday are related to the future fortune, and you will not tell others, especially girls.

Miss Xu was distracted and hurriedly said: “We used to write when we were in Hongluo Temple, but it had to be put in a bright red envelope, and it had to be sealed with a special technique, and put in a sealed box. Don’t worry, no one will know.”

“That’s good!” Yu Tang seemed relieved, and continued to ask Miss Xu about the blessing meeting.

Miss Xu talked about her own experience incessantly, and didn’t mention anything about going out.
