Delicate Flower - Chapter 27
[Chapter 27]
For a time, everyone in Qingzhu Lane knew that the Yu family was about to marry the Wei family.
It’s just that Mrs. Chen hadn’t waited for the matchmaker who came to Wei’s house to officially come to the door with the gift of marriage proposal, so Mrs. Tang came first.
She complained when she entered the door: “Didn’t I tell you to wait? Why are you so impatient. Looking at the entire Lin’an City, who can be compared to the Li family, the second young master of the Li family. You can’t keep your eyes open. With such a shallow son, there are a few who are willing to become son-in-law.”
This statement made Chen shi feel sullen in her heart, and she was rude when she spoke.
Mrs Chen drank the tea slowly and said lightly: “It depends on who it is. Our girls have such a blessing. No matter how good the Li family is, you asked us to wait before, not because the Li family was also there. Thinking of letting their second young master be our family’s son-in-law? It’s just that their Li family is not as sincere as the Wei family, and the Wei family has rushed ahead of them. How can Mrs. Tang say that the Wei family is not as good as the Li family? ”
Mrs. Tang choked.
Chen continued: “Mrs. Tang must not know yet, right? Our two families are planning to settle the marriage before the Mid-Autumn Festival. When that time comes, we will invite Mrs. Tang over for a glass of water and wine, and also ask Mrs. Tang not to refuse.”
Mrs. Tang left in dismay.
Chen shi moved towards her back with a “bah” and instructed Mrs. Chen, “Throw me the tea cup she drank.”
Mrs. Chen smiled and said, “Why are you so angry. Even an old tea cup is worth a few coppers. It’s better to stay at home and wait for some beggars to pass by our house to ask for water, and you can also hold the cup of tea.”
Chen Shi sneered and said, “It’s been used for begging people and others have been eliminated.”
Mrs. Chen laughed.
Chen shi went to urge Yu Tang to embroider the vamp without saying anything.
When Mrs. Lin got Mrs. Tang’s reply, her face was ashen with anger, and she wanted to shout about it, but it’s okay to think about the young son who was still making a fuss at home, and the mother-in-law who called her over and scolded her for a meal. Asked, said: “This Yu family, too, too ignorant of praise.”
Mrs. Tang thought that this was the end, she breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, she and Lin could not help but have a bit of a common enemy, and said, “Isn’t it true? Then Chen is even more arrogant. Daughter? She looks down on one and the other because she has some color
Who knew that Lin Shi turned his face and said, “Isn’t it a concubine? What is it that is not fading?”
Mrs. Tang was boring, thinking that the wife and miss of the Pei family didn’t show her face like this, and she was a little unhappy in her heart, so she said a few words hastily and left.
On the Yu family’s side, Yu Wen invited a few more people to inquire, and they all said that the Wei family has a good family style, and the several rooms help each other. From the marriage of the two families: “Since the Wei family praises our family like this, we must not let the Wei family lose face. We don’t need him to bring anything here. When we get married, we will take one hundred taels of silver, two pigs, and ten altars of gold flowers. Wine, a load of tea, a load of rice, and the clothes of the four seasons, you can buy them. In short, you can’t let others pick out any faults.”
Chen shi was a little embarrassed and said: “A hundred taels of silver? The new house has to be arranged, and A Tang’s jewelry has to be added…”
It’s a bit difficult to take it out in one go.
Yu Wen smiled and said: “I have already agreed with shopkeeper Tong that he will lend me sixty taels of silver, sixty cents, and repay it in a year. You can rest assured. I know these things in my heart, you just need to do it. .”
Chen said happily: “Tong shopkeeper has helped a lot this time. Does he have a little grandson? If there is a little grandson, I will make some clothes for their little grandson. ”
“Not yet!” Yu Wen said, “he is worried about this matter! If you are free, you can talk to Mrs. Tong – didn’t you go to the temple often before? Let’s see if there is any temple that works well. ,
Ask Mrs. Tong to say goodbye too.
”
Chen shi hesitated: “If you want to say that it is effective, it should be called Lingyin Temple. But Lingyin Temple is a bit far away…”
Yu Wen smiled and said, “what’s the matter. When our A-Tang becomes a relative, you just happen to be fine. You can go with Mrs. Tong. You can also ask our A-Tang to sign or something. ”
Chen Shi suddenly came over and talked to Yu Wen about the food in Hangzhou, and said, “You can go too when you arrive, and A-Tang will also go, so our family will take a trip to Hangzhou City.”
Seeing his wife in such a good mood, Yu Wen nodded again and again, really thinking about this in his heart.
I never thought that when the matchmaker of the Wei family should come to the door, the matchmaker of the Wei family did not come.
Chen’s heart was secretly anxious, and wanted A Tiao to inquire about it, but he was afraid of revealing traces, which made people think that the Yu family was in a hurry to marry their daughter, and Yu Yutang’s reputation was not good, so he could only move around at home, but he couldn’t let others know. .
Yu Wen, who was waiting at home, was a little angry. He felt that the Wei family was not keeping their promises, and had a grudge against the Wei family’s marriage, and was afraid that Chen’s illness would be urgent, so he held his breath and comforted Chen’s: “People said I came here today, and I didn’t say whether it was morning or afternoon. Wei’s house is four or five miles away from us. If something is delayed, it will be noon when we arrive at our house. Can’t others come to our house for a meal? , Mijing is expensive, and it is easy not to eat at other people’s houses.”
Chen shi smiled reluctantly, and said weakly: “That being said, shouldn’t you have prepared early and went out before dawn? Come in the afternoon…”
Appears to be insincere.
The husband and wife were talking, and Mrs. Wang, who came to help the guest, came over.
Seeing that the house was deserted, she was taken aback and said hurriedly, “What? The Wei family’s matchmaker didn’t come?”
Chen Shi frowned and shook his head.
Wang Shi’s face sank and said, “This is not a problem. I’ll let A Yuan go and ask.”
Mrs. Chen grabbed Mrs. Wang and said, “Wait a little longer! Maybe something is delayed.”
Wang Shi had to give up, and was very unhappy.
Naturally, this matter could not be concealed from Yu Tang.
She froze for a moment, then felt relieved.
She felt that it would be fine if this marriage was just done like this, and she could continue such a brisk life for a few years.
I’m just afraid that the elders in the family are not happy. After all, people also look at each other, and the family is also very satisfied with Wei Xiaoshan.
She went to see Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Wang, and when she saw them pretending to smile in front of her, she couldn’t help feeling guilty for her indifference, and hurriedly said: “Mum mu, auntie, good things are tough, without the Wei family’s marriage, only It can be said that our fate is not enough, you two don’t have to be sad.”
“You child,” Chen Shi cheered up to comfort Yu Tang, “Don’t intervene when it comes to your affairs, your mother knows what to do with your marriage. Just stay indoors and embroider the shoe uppers.” Then Drive her to the house to be a female red.
Yu Tang had to tell Shuangtao that if anyone from the Wei family came to report her, let her know what went wrong in the marriage between their family and the Wei family.
Shuangtao agreed with a bitter face.
The Wei family didn’t come until after noon.
And it was Wei Xiaoyuan, the eldest son of the Wei family, who came with the matchmaker.
He was also empty-handed, wearing plain clothes, and tied a filial piety belt around his waist.
The Yu family’s heart stunned.
Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Wang were murmuring in the room, “Who is this Wei family? Their family just wanted to talk to our family, A-Tang, so they won’t involve A-Tang?”
Wang Shi made a decisive decision: “Let’s go and have a look!”
According to the ceremony, Wei Xiaoyuan went to see Yu Wen first.
Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Wang, including Yu Tang, who received the letter, were listening outside Yu Wen’s study.
“Uncle Yu,” Wei Xiaoyuan said with red eyes and a face full of grief, “it’s our family’s Xiaoshan and Miss Yu who have no fate. Xiaoshan, Xiaoshan, he went out to fish last night and didn’t come back. We only found out in the morning that he, he was drowning. It’s gone!”
“Ah!” Yu Wen, who was about to give the Wei family a slap in the face, shook his hand, the tea cup fell to the ground, and with a bang, the tea splashed onto his new fat-toed shoes.
“How could this be?” He was furious. “Doesn’t your family know that he is getting engaged? He still went fishing? Your family is short of money?”
In his heart, he said, “It’s over, it’s over.” Their A-Tang had just discussed kissing with Wei Xiaoshan, and Wei Xiaoshan died. This “Kefu” hat was probably going to be put on their A-Tang’s head.
The three eavesdroppers were also stunned.
Yu Wen’s words were sarcastic, Wei Xiaoyuan had just lost his younger brother, and anyone else would quarrel with Yu Wen.
Wei Xiaoyuan not only didn’t quarrel with Yu Wen, he didn’t even say a heavy word, but he endured his grief and said, “Uncle Yu, this is something wrong with our family. The reason why I came here at this time is because before I came here, Dad. After discussing it with me for a long time, I was afraid of damaging Miss Yu’s reputation. My father meant that if someone asked, he would say that it was our third child who met Miss Yu’s family, but our second child had something like this happen. I won’t be able to discuss marriage with your family for a while. Your family said that we can’t wait, and we will find a better marriage for Miss Yu. At the beginning, we didn’t decide whether to discuss marriage with our second or third. ”
“Ah!” This was another surprise.
Yu Wen was so shocked that he was speechless for a long time.
The three people who eavesdropped outside the house, especially the Chen family and the Wang family, burst into tears.
“Such a good family… Such a good child…” Chen Shi couldn’t help sobbing.

Yu Tang also cried silently when he thought of Wei Xiaoshan’s happy eyes when he looked at him.
Yu Wen and Wei Xiaoyuan heard the movement and rushed out, seeing three people with tears falling like rain, Yu Wen couldn’t help sighing heavily, the people slowly came over, and said apologetically to Wei Xiaoyuan, “I was the one who spoke just now. There is something to think about. Don’t blame your uncle. Whoever encounters such a thing will feel uncomfortable. You should also persuade your parents to take the time to pass. I will follow you to the house to have a look, and let her cousin go to Xiaoshan Serve the incense stick.”
The Wei family reasoned like this, and they could still take into account Yu Tang’s reputation when they lost their son, so they should be grateful.
Wei Xiaoyuan was very surprised. He looked at Yu Tang, who was crying while comforting his elders, and his heart was sour.
This is about love.
Xiaoshan knew that the Yu family also took a fancy to him, and he was so excited that he didn’t know what to do.
Unexpectedly, such an accident happened.
How wonderful it would be if these two could become husband and wife!
However, Xiaoshan was gone, and the Yu family couldn’t avoid it. Miss Yu also shed tears because of him. Xiaoshan would be happy if he knew about it.
He wanted to comfort the Yu family, but Yu Wen patted him on the shoulder and said in pain, “I’ll change my clothes now, and have A Yuan be called over, and I’ll go to your house with you.”
Wei Xiaoshan glanced at Yu Tang hesitantly, wanting to tell Yu Tang about his younger brother, but then he thought, what if Yu Tang knew about it?
But more sad.
If she has a good life in the future, that’s enough. If she encounters bad things in the future, she always thinks about this failed marriage. Wouldn’t it make her life uneasy in the future.
In the end, he didn’t say anything, bowed solemnly to the family members of the Yu family, and left the gate of the Yu family.
