Delicate Flower - Chapter 239

[Chapter 237]

As Mrs. Pei said, many things that she hadn’t thought about before gradually became strange, and she became more and more frightened. In the end, her teeth were chattering and she was speechless.

Pei Tong also felt cold all over.

He held his mother’s hand tightly, as if in this way, they could overcome the fear in their hearts and add courage to each other.

“A-Niang!” Pei Tong whispered, Pei Fei ran in happily holding the dim sum, shouted “A-Niang” and “Big Brother”, and showed them the dim sum in her hand: “It’s from Zhaoming Temple. I ate a piece of the vegetarian cake made by the masters, and it contained almonds and walnuts, but it was delicious! You can try it too!”

Adding almonds and walnuts to dim sum is the filling that Beijing dim sum likes to use, Pei Tong said. Both Pei Fei and Pei Fei grew up in the capital. Compared with desserts like sweet-scented osmanthus cake and Qingtuan, they prefer desserts with melon seeds, almonds, and walnuts.

Madam Pei hurriedly showed a smile, gently pulled her son’s hand, and said, “I know you like it. A-Niang doesn’t eat it. It’s too late, A-Niang has already rinsed her mouth. You and your brother should eat it. !”

Pei Fei knew her mother’s living habits, so she stopped eating after rinsing her mouth at night, and she didn’t force her to give Pei Tong more than half of the snacks in her hand.

Mrs. Pei gave her eldest son a wink and said, “It’s getting late, you and your brother should go back and rest! Tomorrow is the lecture session, you can’t go later than the elders, and you shouldn’t stay up late. What’s the matter? Wait, I will talk to your third uncle

during the lecture meeting.” Didn’t Gu Chaoyang say that he would stay in Lin’an for a while after the lecture, they had to make it clear to Pei Yan while Gu Chaoyang was in Lin’an .

Pei Tong glanced at his brother, nodded with a smile, and pulled Pei Fei away.

At this time, Gu Chang was on his way back to the wing where he lived, and his personal entourage, Gao Sheng, whispered to him the news he had inquired: “…Miss Yu is the daughter of an ordinary poor and talented family. Because of her good temperament, she won Pei. The favor of Lao An people, he often walks in the Pei Mansion.” He paused slightly, then continued, “It’s not a woman from an aristocratic family.”

Gu Chang was stunned, stopped and said after a while, “You mean Miss Yu, Just a young lady from an ordinary scholar’s family in Lin’an City?”

“Yes!” Gao Sheng didn’t dare to look into Gu Chang’s eyes, so he lowered his eyes and said, “Yu’s family was originally an ordinary farmer. Because of his diligence and thrift, he gradually gained some wealth, and then he opened a lacquer ware shop, only then did he have the ability to send them home. Their children go to study. Miss Yu’s father is the first person in their family to be famous. Moreover, their family is very weak. Yu Xiucai has only one brother, and Miss Yu has only one cousin.”

In other words, thinking There is no one watching each other.

There is no way!

Gu Chang stroked his forehead, and Yu Tang’s bright face appeared in his mind again.

Really beautiful!

Probably the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in his life.

It’s a pity…

Gu Chang spent almost a stick of incense standing under the boxwood tree on the side of the road before he packed up his mood and said solemnly, “This is the end of the matter. Don’t say anything bad. Come.”

Gao Sheng nodded and mentioned another matter: “This time, the third wife of the Yang family is here too. It is the original seventh Miss Yin family. I heard that their Yin family has a girl who is about to get married, and she gave her to Mrs. Yin family too. My order is to give the girls of the Yin family a suitable marriage.”

Manchu Wenwu, who does not know how powerful the Yin family is in choosing uncles.

It turned out that this was the luck that Gu Chang could only imagine all along, but

now that this opportunity was in his hands, he suddenly lost the excitement and excitement he imagined.

“This kind of thing also depends on fate.” He said lightly, “Let’s talk about it when you have a chance!”

Gao Sheng didn’t dare to say more, and silently accompanied Gu Chang to his residence.

But Pei Yan couldn’t fall asleep. He felt that he should talk to his staff, Shu Qing, but he intuitively felt that what he was about to say might make Shu Qing despise, so he simply lay motionless on the bed, staring at the top of the bed in a daze.

In the dead of night, occasionally a sound will be amplified infinitely.

He heard Zhou Zijin play the lyre and sing there.

Usually this time is when Zhou Zijin is slightly drunk.

In the past, Pei Yan felt that this was Zhou Zijin’s own business and had nothing to do with him, but today, he inexplicably felt that Zhou Zijin was very annoying – why did Zhou Zijin drink and sing in the temple and make everyone feel restless, he still had to. bear it?

He is unhappy here but has no one to speak to?

He thought about it, and went out the door with his clothes on.

Zhou Zijin really took a few servants and sat on the ground under the rockery of Taihu Lake next to their yard, enjoying the small lake under the moonlight.

He was angry from the bottom of his heart, stepped forward quickly, and kicked the wine bottles that had fallen by Zhou Zijin’s side.

Zhou Zijin raised his head, looked at Pei Yan with drunken eyes, and said, “Why are you crazy? Are you not dressed up? Come, come, little brother, don’t lose your temper, tell my brother what happened to you. ?” After saying that, he grabbed Pei Yan’s sleeve and pressed him to sit down on the straw mat. “The household affairs at home will definitely not be difficult for you. What’s the matter? You won’t meet a beautiful girl. , can’t you ask for it?” After speaking, Zhou Zijin himself was amused by his own words, he said, “No, if you really like someone’s girl, it is probably just a matter of saying that you want to marry, no. I can’t ask for it! Is it wrong? Hahaha… Pei Xiaguang, you have today too!”

Pei Yan’s face changed with anger, he pushed Zhou Zijin away, and shouted at his servant, “You know what? I don’t know where this is? You even indulge him to drink and play, are you afraid that his reputation is too good?” The

servants looked embarrassed and rushed forward, trying to help Zhou Zijin back to where he lived.

However, Zhou Zijin waved away the servant and shouted at Pei Yan: “Xiaguang, don’t be shy. Although I am in the same class as your brother, you will respect your brother so much because of your face. It’s my brother…” The more he said,

the more outrageous he was.

Pei Yan decided to ignore Zhou Zijin and left angrily.

He went back to the room and lay down again. He still couldn’t sleep. He thought to himself that tomorrow’s sermon would be arranged in the Fatang. The male guests had tables and chairs directly facing the podium. a screen.

At that time, all the female relatives will be sitting together. If Miss Gu and Miss Yu have a conflict, everyone will see it, no matter who is right and who is wrong, it will always be a disgraceful thing.

The more Pei Yan thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was a bit suspenseful – if Miss Yu listened to his advice, it would be fine, but if she didn’t…

Besides, Miss Yu is not a person who can bear it!

He got up from the bed in a hurry, called Pei Man in, and asked him to arrange for someone to fix the position on the female family’s side overnight: “Whoever sits in which position, mark it, don’t walk around at that time. If you want to move forward, move forward. Miss Yu and her daughter came with the Lao An people. You arrange for them to sit with the Lao An people. As for Miss Gu, arrange to sit with the young ladies of the Song and Peng families. Let’s be together.”

By separating people, there should be fewer incidents.

Pei Man was shocked for a while before he recovered his voice, and said suspiciously: “Now? Set the location?”

“Yes!” Pei Yan said decisively, “Go now, just like when my teacher’s family held a wedding last time in the capital. In that way, draw a picture, how many positions there are, and where each person is sitting, and make it clear. Then send a picture to each family to let them know where they are sitting.”

But the last time Mr. Zhang held a wedding because of three The prince and the second prince both came to congratulate and stayed to listen to the play.

They’re just holding a seminar, shouldn’t that be the case?

But Pei Man didn’t dare to say this.

As if he was sleepwalking, he made two sounds of “oh” and “oh” before he fully reacted and confirmed: “Everyone’s position is fixed?”

That is to say, they had to determine overnight how many people would go from each prefecture. Listen to the scriptures.

Including the maid and wife.

Even people who are standing have to find a place to stand, right?

Pei Yan felt that these were trivial matters.

Since the Zhang family can do it, so can their family.

“Go do it!” He fell to the ground like a big rock, drowsily struck, and yawned to indicate that Pei Man could retire.

Pei Man withdrew, but he couldn’t help but murmured in his heart that with one word from the master, the servant broke his leg.

Don’t even want to sleep with him and the other managers tonight.

Yu Tang slept soundly here.

Not only did she finish copying the Buddhist scriptures as planned last night, but she also learned that the Li family was about to fall into a bad mood. She was in such a good mood that she was still in a good mood when she was woken up by Shuang Tao before dawn the next day. Breakfast also planned to invite Miss Xu to greet Laoan Pei together. It was only when they reached the gate of the hospital that they remembered that Miss Xu and Mrs. Yang San had both decided to pretend to be sick and not attend the lecture.

But she still went in to say hello to Miss Xu and Mrs. Yang San, and then she helped her mother to go to Pei Lao’an.

Pei Laoan got up quite early, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com When they passed, not only Yi Laoan and Yong Laoan were there, but also the second wife, several Miss Pei, and the rest of the Pei family. The wives and young grandmothers of several rooms also arrived one after another.

Pei Lao’an was in good spirits, and played with his great-grandson who was not yet one year old in the second room for a while. After waiting until the time was almost up, he led everyone to the hall behind the Daxiong Palace.

Because everyone already knew the previous regulations, and suddenly received the seating chart, everyone was stunned.

Although everyone can find a place according to their own status in such an occasion, there will always be people who will sit next to the respected elders in order to flatter others. If the elders don’t hate this person, they can also accompany them to talk.

It’s the first time they’ve met anyone’s maid and mother-in-law standing in a circle like this.

Several wives and young grandma of the Pei family began to whisper.

Pei Man, who hadn’t slept all night, had to jog over to explain: “There will be nine days for the sermons. We know who will come and who won’t come. Some things can be arranged easily.”

What can be arranged?

Pei Lao’an was full of confusion, but it was his son who was in charge, so he could only lift the pile: “That’s fine. Everyone, don’t hold back, just sit first! If you’re not used to it, you can adjust it later.”

The crowd laughed and sat down.

Pei Man laughed with him, and let people guard the passage leading to the east hall.

As for the hall on the west side, some tables, chairs and benches were placed, which were opened to the village gentry and people of Lin’an City who came to listen to the lecture.
