Delicate Flower - Chapter 237

[Chapter 235 Recognition]

Pei Tong’s eyes were very sincere, and there was a little sadness in his eyebrows, and when he thought of what he said, most people would probably feel sympathy and become tolerant when they saw such a scene.

It’s a pity that he met not the majority, but the Gu brothers and sisters.

Whether it was Gu Chang or Gu Xi, they immediately comforted him without emotion, and Gu Chang even asked aggressively: “If that’s the case, why did you agree to go to Gu’s family to study? Is it because of what happened to Pei’s family school in the past few years? “The

Pei family’s clan is diametrically opposite to that of other families.

The clans of other families learned to admit some children of in-laws to study, and even actively or passively admitted some poor children for the sake of networking, and sometimes even subsidized them to participate in the imperial examinations.

The Pei family’s family history only accepts the children of the Pei family, which also makes others unfamiliar with the children of the Pei family, and some people don’t even know that the Pei family has a family history.

Gu Chang has always been curious about the Pei family’s family history and wanted to find a chance to see it. He asked this partly because he doubted what Pei Tong said, and partly because he wanted to find an opportunity to inquire about the Pei family’s family history and see if he could find it. Opportunity to visit Pei Family Studies.

Who knew that Pei Tong shook his head with a wry smile, and said helplessly: “I went to Gu’s house to study to appease my mother. You should have heard that my mother has been living in Beijing with her father and my grandmother since she got married. She didn’t get along very much. After her father left, she was alone in Lin’an. She was unfamiliar with her life in Lin’an. She was not very happy when she was alone. Moreover, she was not used to the climate and life of Lin’an. The first thing she lived in Lin’an was In the winter, my hands were frozen. In addition, the Pei family study is now presided over by Yi Gong, and my father once had a conflict with Yi Gong because of the imperial examination… My mother was in charge of herself, and I always felt that my life was not going well. She has a kind mother’s mind, thinking about the future of the Gu family… it is also my Yue family. If she can walk around more with the Yue family, like my father, and become friends with the Yue family’s uncles and brothers, life will definitely be happier than in Lin’an. I decided this on my own accord. I couldn’t bear to make my mother sad, so I agreed. I never thought that such a misunderstanding would happen!”

Gu Xi breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at his brother.

Gu Chang still said, “Why did your father have a conflict with Duke Yi?”

If it is for the family’s resources, the Pei family has a great career, not to mention being a scholar, even after Pei You became an official, the Pei family subsidized his chewing as before, how could there be a conflict?

This is also an important reason why Gu Chang feels that the Pei family is a good in-law.

Everyone knows that the salary of an official is very small, and it is not enough to support the family. Those officials who do not have family subsidies can easily go into crooked ways.

Pei Tong thought for a while, and said in a low voice, “Originally, this matter shouldn’t be told by a junior like me, but since you ask, I’m not afraid of your jokes.

Our family has a family rule, and the zongzi can’t go out to office .

So, like my great-grandfather and grandfather, their careers stopped at recruiting people. It was not that they were unable to continue the examination, but because of such family rules. When my father was young, he was very knowledgeable, and he was young and energetic, and he was not satisfied. This clan rule, in order to prove himself, had to go to the imperial examination. Later, after being admitted to the Shuji Shi, he insisted on becoming an official. This made Yi Gong very dissatisfied. He once went to the capital to question my father. The two of them had a very unpleasant quarrel, which happened to be my mother’s presence… That’s why my grandfather passed the position of the suzerain to my third uncle, and my mother and I both agreed.”

Gu Chang, a member of the Pei family, once He heard it, and now it has been confirmed in Pei Tong’s mouth, he couldn’t help but feel a little emotional, saying: “It is difficult for other people to have a scholar, but your father would rather give up the position of suzerain in order to start a career. ”

Pei Tong smiled and said in a low voice, “You’ve won the prize”, but it could be seen from his demeanor that he was very proud of his father.

Because it turns out that Pei You is not wrong.

He has achieved the third grade.

He is the most outstanding child of the Pei family in the past three generations.

Gu Chang said: “About your father’s last words, no matter what, you should figure it out.”

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to say anything.

“You should also reconsider about going to Gu’s house to study.” Gu Chang had already forgiven Pei Tong at this time, and naturally he took care of him as his brother-in-law in his heart, and he was more protective of him in his words and demeanor, said, ” An aristocratic family like ours has lived in groups for several generations and several houses, and there are some contradictions that are not enough for outsiders. I only have one younger sister, and she has only one brother like me. As for the rest, come or not, go If you don’t get together, the love might be better than the classmates you studied with since childhood, and you tell your in-laws, so that she doesn’t have to have too much hope.”

Instead of counting on the Gu family, it is better to count on the Yang family.

The Yang family has a simple population, and there are not so many messes.

Pei Tong was shocked when he heard the words, but he quickly restrained his expression, bowed respectfully to Gu Chang, thanked him, and promised: “I will clarify this matter with my mother, third uncle. There, you don’t have to worry, I will explain it to him personally. As for my study, I am also going to talk with Yi Gong, I believe that with Yi Gong’s mind, even if I am wrong, it will not embarrass me. Yes.” Having said that, he looked up at Gu Xi and said apologetically, “It’s just that Miss Gu may be wronged at that time, and she will have to stay with me in Pei’s residence for a few more years, so she won’t be able to go back to her mother’s house often.”

Gu Xi caught it.

It was Pei Tong’s thoughtfulness.

Hearing what he said, she was suddenly a little fortunate that Mrs. Pei liked to subsidize her parents’ family.

When she gets married, if Mrs. Pei also subsidizes her parents’ family, it will be another matter if Mrs. Pei is happy or not. Pei Tong will definitely be used to it and will not have any opinions.

They certainly wouldn’t argue over such a thing.

Gu Xi said with a smile, “Young master is worrying too much”, and turned his eyes to Gu Chang, vaguely implying that he would beg for Pei Tong.

Gu Chang didn’t want to embarrass Pei Tong either. If Gu Xi really got married, he could only count on Pei Tong to protect her. He didn’t want to offend anyone.

“Then I’ll go first.” He got up and said goodbye, “Xiaguang is still there waiting for me to say something!”

Although they were fiancées, they didn’t get married after all, and Pei Tong didn’t want to stay too long. He said “see you tomorrow” to Gu Xi, and followed Gu Chang out of the yard where Gu Xi lived. He was attentive and polite. He wanted to send Gu Chang to the meeting hall, and said, “I didn’t expect you to come here. If I knew this, I prepared a few drinks for you to drink. I don’t know when you will leave Lin’an? I’ll see you off! Otherwise, it’s hard for me to live in peace in my heart.”

The tone of his voice was a bit of a teenager’s ignorance of the world.

Gu Chang suddenly understood why Gu Xi chose Pei Tong as her husband.

I would rather cultivate a person who fits my temperament and personality, rather than being a man tremblingly under Pei Yan’s eyes.

This is not his persistence and stubbornness.

They look alike as siblings!

Gu Chang laughed, his voice more gentle.

He said to Pei Tong: “After the lecture, I will stay in Lin’an for a few days. I will have a few drinks with you at that time. Just don’t get drunk.”

Pei Tong smiled embarrassedly.

Juvenile feeling heavier.

Gu Chang asked about his studies.

Pei Tong answered one by one seriously, which aroused Gu Chang’s curiosity. When Pei Tong sent him outside the conference hall, he was reluctant to be separated from Pei Tong and continued to test Pei Tong’s knowledge.

It wasn’t until Tao Qing came out of the conference hall and saw that he and Pei Tong were still standing under the ginkgo tree outside the conference hall talking, and said with a smile, “If you have anything to say, Mr. Lang, you can leave it for tomorrow, let’s talk together. Everyone in the room is waiting for you.” This interrupted Gu Chang’s interest, and apologetically said “sorry” to Pei Tong, sent Pei Tong away, and entered the discussion hall with Tao Qing.

Pei Tong stood under the dripping courtyard gate, and the bright moonlight shone down, so that half of his figure was in the moonlight and half in the shadow.

After a long while, he slowly left the courtyard of the conference hall.

In the discussion hall, Tao Qing and Pei Yan were talking to Pei Tong: “The older the child is, the more handsome he is, and the more he looks like your family. Has his wedding date been set? When he gets married, you have to talk to him in advance. I said, I’m coming to his wedding.”

Pei Yan replied with a smile, looking like a good uncle.

Gu Chang couldn’t help but glance at Pei Yan.

Pei Yan smiled brilliantly, completely different from his usual coldness and arrogance. If he hadn’t studied Pei Yan well, he would have almost thought that the Pei Yan in front of him was fake.

A little surprise rose in his heart.

Pei Tong got married, but it wasn’t his own marriage, was it necessary for him to be so elated?

Gu Chang glanced at Pei Yan again.

Pei Yan not only had a smile on the corners of his eyes, but also looked comfortable and easy-going. Sitting against the big pillow, he didn’t seem to be competing with the heads of the various prefectures for the sake of profit. Instead, he looked like he was playing with these heads. , very happy.

Gu Chang couldn’t think of anything to be happy about.

He frowned, but in the end he didn’t find anything from Pei Yan’s expression.

Pei Yan was in a very good mood, even if Gu Chang looked at him repeatedly rudely, he did not lose his temper.

He felt that Yu Tang was still a little stupid.

What he says is what he says.

Then he has to calculate carefully about the Li family.

The first is that their family cannot keep the newly bought house in Hangzhou City, and secondly, it is best to let the Li family’s ancestral house take care of them, so that others have nothing to say.

Then there is Shen Shanyan, he has to stop helping Li Duan. It is better to turn against each other, otherwise, with Shen Shanyan’s squeamish character, if he is persuaded to help Li Duan again, he will have to spend energy to block it. …

He was thinking like crazy in his head, so that when Master Wu asked him if he could do it, he didn’t realize what Master Wu said, so he could only vaguely say, “I have to think carefully about this matter. ”, which provoked Tao Qing’s eye-knife. When Master Wu went to ask others, Tao Qing leaned over and asked him, “Where have you lost your soul, Master Wu said that their family is willing to share the 200,000 taels of silver. You didn’t promise anything good, have you been possessed by something?” He realized what he had missed.

But he comforted himself in his heart. There are old foxes in the room. What they promised may not be done. Even if they miss it, it doesn’t matter. The important thing is that they can get the money in real money.

Even if he walks away now, he can’t delay anything.
