Delicate Flower - Chapter 86

[Chapter 86 Years Ago]

This is to let the two fight first!

Pei Man understood and replied with a smile, opened the place where Aming had read before, and prepared to continue reading the gift list for Pei Yan.

Pei Yan raised his hand and made a “no” gesture, and said, “This is the gift list sent by the Wu family. You can take a look and prepare a return gift by comparison. Then see if there is anything interesting in what you sent. things.”

Pei Man knew his hobbies, responded respectfully, and withdrew.

Pei Yan was a little bored, so he took the door beast ring, went to his second brother to talk about the new year, went to say hello to his mother, thought about it, turned around and went to the study in the outer courtyard.

In the place where the father and daughter of the Yu family were received before, all the rooms except Pei Yan’s study were brightly lit. But it was still noisier than the place next to him, and the oncoming heat made Pei Yan frown in disgust.

“Third Master!” When everyone heard the movement, they saw Pei Yan who came in, and they all stepped forward to salute.

Pei Yan nodded, and his eyes fell on Pei Man.

Pei Man hurriedly said: “The gift list from the Wu family has been transcribed, and our stewards are discussing and preparing to return the gift.” Having said that, he paused and said, “You won’t be here at the moment, I’m also ready to wait. I will go to see you—the things the Wu family sent are a little expensive, I let the accountant do the math, and it is worth at least 10,000 taels of silver. Among them, more than 7,000 taels are indicated to you.”

Obviously he came with a request .

But other people in Pei’s house didn’t know the reason, and looked at Pei Yan with admiration, as if they just knew this person.

Pei Yan curled the corners of his mouth and rubbed the frosted ring of the beast ring on his hand, thinking that the Yu family would give him 70% of the profit.

If they knew that he had received so many gifts in just two days, how surprised would the father and daughter be?

“Then accept it.” Since Pei Yan’s confrontation with his second senior brother, he has not treated the people and things around his second senior brother very much. “I don’t accept it, and people are not at ease!”

Pei Man smiled, but at this time another servant ran in and panted: “Third master, Deng Xuesong, the imperial censor, is here to visit.”

Pei Yan was very surprised.

It was getting late at this time. Although he and Deng Xuesong were from the same family, Deng Xuesong was born in a poor family and had an arrogant personality. The relationship between the two was very normal. Logically, Deng Xuesong would not visit him at this time.

Is it related to the map?

Pei Yan touched his chin and went to the warm pavilion to meet the guests.

Deng Xuesong was in his forties, tall and thin, with a goatee, sitting on the chair of the Grand Master with his eyes half-closed, and letting Hu Xing surround him attentively, he couldn’t tell what he was thinking.

Seeing Pei Yan, he nodded arrogantly towards Pei Yan.

Deng Xuesong didn’t like Pei Yan very much. He felt that Pei Yan was talented and intelligent but willful.

But the two are from the same family, and he can’t destroy each other even if he doesn’t want to see Pei Yan again.

Fortunately, he helped Pei Yan once last time, which gave him more confidence.

After the two exchanged greetings, Deng Xuesong

directly explained his intention: “I heard that the eldest master of the Huzhou Wu family is here with you? Do you know what the Huzhou Wu family did in the first place?”

If you think about it, you can be sure that Deng Xuesong also came for that map.

I just don’t know who is he trying to help?

To be able to stand up to Jiang Hua’s in-laws so frankly, it can be

seen that he is not an idle family.

It’s just why they didn’t come forward to find him directly and asked Deng Xuesong to be the middleman?

Pei Yan pretended not to know, and said with a smile: “The Wu family is my second senior brother’s in-law anyway, how could I not know?” As soon as the

words came out, Pei Yan’s heart moved.

Zhou Zijin had heard that he had a falling out with his second senior brother, wouldn’t these people think the same way?

That’s kind of fun!

Pei Yan thought about it, pushed the fruit plate beside him towards Deng Xuesong, and said, “Tast it, Tao Ziran’s blessing cake brought to me from Guangzhou, I tasted it, it really lives up to its reputation.”

Tao An, whose name is Ziran, was Deng Xuesong’s subordinate when he was the master bookkeeper in the Ministry of Industry.

Deng Xuesong’s expression became slightly stiff, obviously he already knew what the Tao family had done.

Pei Yan smiled and took a piece of blessing cake and handed it to Deng Xuesong: “Eat the cake, eat the cake!”

Deng Xuesong reluctantly ate a piece of cake, praised a few words of deliciousness, and after thinking about it, he felt that he was no match for Pei Yanhe. Tao Anneng was able to talk, and simply said: “Then I won’t go around in circles. The Quanzhou Yinjia is kind to me, let me be a middleman for them, and also ask Xiaguang to meet.”

Quanzhou Yinjia, Fuzhou Pengjia , Longyan Lijia, known as the three major families in Fujian.

Quanzhou Yinjia started out by making tea. Later, it was overwhelmed by Longyan Lijia and changed to shipping.

In Fujian’s current fleet, except for the Peng family, most of the rest belong to the Yin family.

The Yin family is not as single-minded as the Li family, nor is it as powerful and powerful as the Peng family, but their family also has its own advantages – over the years, the Yin family has been devoted to clanology and helped many scholars. Among the three families, it is the news of their family. The most informed, the most flexible, and the most flexible.

Pei Yan had hesitated before whether to hook up the Yin family.

It’s alright now, without him coming forward, the Yin family jumped out on their own.

Pei Yan didn’t do Tai Chi with Deng Xuesong, and said bluntly: “We are not outsiders, so I will speak directly. If there is something wrong, you will have to give me some back. That map is not yet available. If I knew it was true or not, I didn’t say anything. However, I happened to have something I wanted to trouble the Yin family. If this happened, I would count them as part of the map anyway.”

Deng Xuesong’s heart skipped a beat .

, said: “It’s a share?”

Pei Yan smiled and said: “You don’t think that such a big thing, only our family can eat it?”

Deng Xuesong is a person who only reads sages and sages. I neither liked nor cared about what happened, and when he heard the words, his face flushed, and he said, “You also said that we are not outsiders, tell me, what do you want me to do?”

Pei Yan was also polite, and said, “I have something to do. If you want to ask the Yin family for help, you can ask their family to have someone who can talk.”

Deng Xuesong knew that it was not easy to make Pei Yan ask for each other and use maritime business as bait.

He has done everything he can, and he doesn’t want to go into this muddy water anymore.

“Okay! That’s settled then.” He stood up very simply and said, “It’s not too early today, I have to rush back to Hangzhou City overnight, so don’t leave me, the assessment will be at the end of the year soon. Now, I can’t delay serious errands.”

Pei Yan didn’t force him to stay, he personally sent Deng Xuesong out, and mentioned about Yu Wen on the way: “Although he is only a scholar, Suikao is not with you, you can say hello anyway, and take care of it if you can. Take care of it.”

Xiucai has to be assessed every year, and if he fails the assessment, he may be dismissed as a scholar.

Deng Xuesong didn’t ask any more questions. Anyway, this favor was Pei Yancheng. He said, “Don’t worry, I know what to do with this matter. When the time comes, someone will send you a letter.”

Pei Yan thought that this could be regarded as the door A thank you gift from the beast ring.

Seeing Deng Xuesong’s sedan chair leaving Xiaomei Lane against the cold wind, Pei Yan went to the outer study where he handled household affairs.

It’s still so busy everywhere, but a few stewards gathered around the book table where he threw a door beast ring to hold the account book, talking about the door beast ring: “I didn’t expect the third master to have one. If I knew this earlier, or I would put it The one from the store can send it over, or ask for it from the third master, it’s worth making a pair.”

Pei Yanqi said: “Where is there a door ring?”

The steward smiled and said: ” In an antique shop, there is a door beast ring exactly like this one, but it was sold a few days ago, and it is too late to regret it.”

Hearing that, Pei Yan looked a little strange and said, “When did it sell? How much money did it sell? The

steward smiled and said, “It’s just these few days. You also know that this thing is not very valuable in the first place, and it’s a single item, and it’s even more worthless. We sold it for two taels of silver. If I had known that you had one here, It can be sold for at least one hundred taels of silver.”

“Oh!” Pei Yan replied expressionlessly, “Then you are busy, I will go back and rest!”

After all, the few stewards acted according to his eyes, and they were all very good at observing colors, and immediately realized that he was very unhappy.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what made him unhappy.

They exchanged glances with each other, not knowing what to say.

After finally waiting for Pei Yan to leave, Pei Man couldn’t help but slapped one of them and said, “Aren’t you going to work hard? Do you want to stay awake for a few days and nights?” The

talking steward exclaimed and hugged Stopping his head, he hurriedly put down the door beast ring to reconcile the accounts.

Pei Man looked at the azure door beast ring, feeling like a hot potato, not knowing what to do.

But you can’t just leave it here!

He thought for a while, beckoned to Aming to come over, and whispered to him: “You find a chance to quietly put it on the third master’s bookshelf.”

When the third master went to the book and found it, it was fate.

Can’t find it and won’t lose it.

Aming put the door beast ring as instructed.

The Yin family arrived at Lin’an City at noon the next day.

He is the son of the Yin family, and he is also the next suzerain of the Yin family.

Before they came, their family had inquired about Pei Yan carefully, knowing that this was the first Spring Festival when Pei Yan took over the suzerainty of the Pei family, so they thought of going there with the Wu family, thinking that Pei Yan would definitely stand out, and they were in a big car and a small car. , pulled something that was almost ten carriages to meet Pei Yan.

That day, Yu Tang happened to accompany her mother to give a New Year’s gift to Mrs. Ma’s house. She sat in the sedan chair and pulled up the sedan curtain to see clearly.

After returning home, Mrs. Chen also said to Yu Wen: “No wonder Mrs. Pei wants to pass the position of the suzerain to the third master. This year’s boxing ceremony is a hundred times more lively than in previous years. Will the Pei family become more and more prosperous in the future? Do you think the Pei family will be? Move to Hangzhou City.”

He threw the pot out, his wife’s illness was treated by a famous doctor, her daughter became more and more obedient, and she was able to help with everything at home. The days of carving seals and reading idle books.

He pondered that when Yu Yuan got married in the spring, Yu Tang’s marriage could be settled. He had to carve a seal for his daughter. In the future, her daughter’s housekeeper could pay money or collect bills with the seal.

“No!” He looked at the appearance of the seal and said casually, “The Pei family moved long ago if they wanted to move. Besides, Hangzhou City is not so easy to take root.” The

couple chatted slowly, Yu Tang was a little anxious.

Looking at it like this, the auction will be postponed to a year later.

I don’t know if these people who came to give New Year’s Boxing have anything to do with Map Auction?

She sighed softly.
