When Yu's greeting card was delivered to Pei Yan, Pei Yan was practicing calligraphy in Shuixie's study.

As the autumn wind blew, weeping willow leaves fell into the lake one after another, and several koi carps poked their heads out, chasing the floating willow leaves.

He opened the greeting card and glanced at it casually, and asked the boy who sent the greeting card: "Did the Yu family say anything else?"

The young man lowered his eyelids and said respectfully: "I didn't say anything, I just said that I want to visit you tomorrow."

Pei Yan nodded, picked up Xiang Feizhu's lake pen again, and said faintly: "Go and talk to the chief executive and let him arrange arrangements."

The little servant went away.

A Ming, who was grinding the ink for Pei Yan, hesitated for a while, and said softly, "Master III, will you not check the accounts tomorrow? Do you want me to talk to Mr. Chen?"

Mr. Chen's name is Chen Qi, and he is an accountant hired from outside after Pei Yan officially takes charge of the Pei Mansion. Now he is in charge of the accounts of Pei Mansion.

Pei Yan didn't raise his eyes, and said, "No, Aman knows what to do."

A Ming said "Oh", then rubbed his head again.

The third master had to write two thousand lower letters every day. At the beginning, he couldn't lift his hand up in a day. Now he gradually got used to it, but he felt very relaxed.

In Qingzhu Alley, Yu Wen got a reply and invited Master Wu to come over: "Should we go together tomorrow?"

Master Wu was secretly surprised. Last night he was drinking with a squire in the city surnamed Huang. Master Huang wanted to see Pei Yan about the autumn harvest, but Pei Yan said to check the accounts. If things are not urgent, let Master Huang go to see Chief Pei.

But Yu Wen just handed the greeting note today, and he will be able to enter the mansion tomorrow.

It can be seen that Yu Wen and Pei's family are closer than he thought.

He remembered the scene when Yu's shop opened.

Pei Yan personally came to congratulate him.

Master Wu looked at Yu Wen calmly.

Still the gentle and elegant scholar appearance.

Did he underestimate Yu Wen before? Underestimated Yu's family?

Master Wu touched his head and said, "Tomorrow I won't go with you. You can talk easily without anyone else."

Yu Wen was a little embarrassed to see Pei Yan.

Pei Yan helped their family so much, but as a result, the silver hadn't gotten six thousand taels before getting the heat. Tomorrow Master Wu is not present, lest he wants to make a payment to Pei Yan but is not easy to speak up.

The next day, Yu Wen hired a sedan chair and went to Pei's mansion.

Yu Tang couldn't help complaining when he learned about it: "Daddy didn't say a word when he went to Pei's mansion. The peanut crisp we made yesterday is even better than the last time."

Chen smiled straight and said, "Then let A Tiao go to Pei's Mansion again tomorrow."

Yu Tang nodded.

Pei Yan thought that Yu Wen came for the six thousand taels of silver, and wondered how to convince him not to expect how much loss Ningbo could return. Who knows that Yu Wen said about Jiang Chao: "The person is pretty good, self-motivated, and honest and keeps promises. I want me to help lead a line to visit you. I'm not good to take your idea. No, just come. Ask." When I mentioned the six thousand taels of silver, I only said that he had failed his good intentions. I was not the material of business. I guess there is no fortune. I said: "You see, the auction map is a windfall, but It was gone in an instant."

The words are quite open-minded.

Pei Yan looked at him with admiration, and said, "What does Jiang Chao want to see me for?"

Yu Wen also frankly confessed: "I said he wanted you to say hello to the prefect of Ningbo, but I think he still wants to know you. I also said that your family is a four-skilled scholar. We locals all treat Lord Wang has forgotten it."

The corners of Pei Yan's mouth twitched.

It's not that outsiders have forgotten Pei Wang, but the Pei family deliberately downplayed his existence.

"I see." He said, "Since I have come to you, it would be nice not to see the folks in the village. You can ask him to see me again in four or five days. I will go to Hangzhou for investigation these days. An account." Then speaking of the last time I saw Yu Tang, "Did she go to Li's house to watch the excitement?"

Yu Wen is clear.

He and Master Wu also wanted to buy Li's field behind the Pei family, but they didn't expect that Master Pei San would have known it a long time ago.

"Watch the excitement?" Yu Wen had a guilty conscience. He didn't know how to answer Pei Yan for a while, and said with a dry smile, "How to watch the excitement? Their fields are sold in private, so she can't go to Li's house and watch them, right? Even if she goes, the door of Li's house is closed, there is nothing to look at!"

Pei Yan gave Yu Wen a strange look.

Is the excitement of the Li family juggling at the gate?

It's no wonder that Miss Yu has come forward about the Yu family. Although Yu Wen is a talent, it looks like this, it is estimated that she is a little bit rotten in school.

I guess it would be hard to talk to him.

Pei Yan was too lazy to continue talking with Yu Wen and served tea.

Yu Wen didn't want to stay much, got up and said goodbye.

Pei Yan went to Hangzhou City in the afternoon.

Jiang Chao had to wait for Pei Yan to return at Yu's house.

Yu Wen and Master Wu are hostesses and take him around for a while. It is a pity that Lin'an City is only so big, and I dare not go to a place farther away, but in two or three days, there is nothing new to go.

The tide of rivers travels between Jiangsu and Zhejiang all the year round, which can be regarded as a little knowledgeable. Although the scenery of Lin'an is good, it is not alone in the world. He was worried about meeting Pei Yan a few days later, and he had no intention of continuing to play, and simply said: "After climbing the mountain for a few days, my legs started to tremble, not as strong as the two brothers. Ashamed. Ashamed!"

Master Wu heard the words and knew the elegant intentions, and laughed: "We are also at the end of the war and sacrificed our lives to accompany the gentleman. Since Brother Jiang said so, we will rest for two days, just waiting for Master Pei San to return."

Jiang Chao stopped at Yu Wen's house, carefully pondering in his heart what he would say when he met Pei Yan, and how to impress Pei Yan, so that Pei Yan thought he was a useful talent.

An opportunity like this might only happen once in his life.

He calculated the whole day in a rush. In the afternoon, he was a little dizzy, thinking that he was about to eat dinner, so he took the small servant Azhou to the hall.

Passing by the patio, he saw a little girl about sixteen or seven years old, wearing a silver-red plain hang silk skirt, a white thread-pick skirt, her black hair and snow-white skin, and she was pointing at the woman in the Yu family. The maid was loading the box, and while loading it, she said: "Be careful! You can't fold the corners. He is the most particular person. If you see the corners are folded, you will probably think that they have been left for several days. Yes, I can't even taste it."

Jiang Chao's eyes fell on those boxes.

At first glance, it is a box for snacks. White and pure, without even a word or pattern.

Gifts should be packed in red boxes, right?

This kind of box is like... used during sacrifices.

He couldn't help taking a few more glances.

The little girl turned around.

He saw a good face.

A pair of eyes are cut into water, black and white, clear and bright. The corners of his mouth are smiling, happily like a bee around a flower.

"This is...Miss Yu?" He asked A Zhou in a low voice.

A Zhou stood on tiptoe and glanced at it and laughed, and said cheerfully, "Well, it's the Yu family's eldest lady. She is good at making snacks, and the peanut crisps made are especially delicious. A Tiao gave me a couple of days ago. One."

Miss Yu is very beautiful.

Jiang Chao thought, it is not appropriate for him to stand here like this. Just about to turn around and leave, Yu Tang's gaze swept over inadvertently.

This person is Jiang Chao!

Yu Tang looked at him secretly.

He was handsome, but not quite the same as Jiang Ling. One is thin and weak, but the other is tall and confident.

Maybe this is the difference between men and women?

Yu Tang pondered, and nodded politely towards Jiang Chao.

Jiang Chao hurriedly bowed to Yu Tang, left the patio, and hurried to the hall.

Yu Wen is not there.

Jiang Chao asked A Zhou in a low voice: "Do you know what Miss Yu is doing? Where are the snacks delivered?"

A Zhou smiled and said: "Miss Yu made the peanut cake and sent it to Pei's mansion. I heard that the third master of Pei's mansion likes to eat it. Last time the manager of Pei's family came to present the Mid-Autumn Festival gift, he also specially mentioned it. The Yu family received new peanuts, and Ms. Yu made this peanut crisp and sent it over."

Jiang Chao said "Oh".

The relationship between the Yu family and the Pei family is so good!

When he saw Yu Wen again, he became more enthusiastic, and confirmed Pei Yan’s temperament to Yu Wen: “I’ve inquired a little bit, but everyone can’t make it clear. It seems that the third master of Pei’s family was not very much in Lin’an before. It’s Pei Yan. After the old man went, he took over the Pei family and lived in Lin'an for a long time. I heard that he was a little moody, is it true?"

Yu Wen frowned when he heard that, and said displeasedly: "Who do you hear that Master Pei San is moody? This is all a rumor! Master Pei San is chivalrous, and like Grandpa Pei, he is very willing to help others. It's just that he is young, It's just a bit more aggressive..."

Jiang Chao listened absently as he praised Pei Yan, but didn't believe it very much.

If Pei Yan is really such a person, then why is Miss Yu so careful that she is so careful with a box of snacks?

Master Yu was either powdering Pei Yan's face, or he didn't understand Pei Yan at all.

Yu Tang's big smiling eyes suddenly appeared in his mind.

Perhaps, Miss Yu knows more?

He moved in his heart and said: "Brother Yu, I saw Miss Yu preparing a snack for Pei Mansion. Do you know that Master Pei San prefers sweet or salty ones? When I go to Pei Mansion, what should I give? Can you impress Master Pei San without being rude?"

Yu Wen coughed lightly, it was really hard to help him out.

"I'll ask the people at home," he said, "I don't usually care about these things!"

Jiang Chao smiled and thanked him, and winked at A Zhou.

After returning to the guest room after dinner, A Zhou whispered to Jiang Chao: "The list that Master Yu just gave you is Miss Yu to ask."

Sure enough, as he intuitively felt.

Does he want to find a chance to talk to Miss Yu?

Jiang Chao walked back and forth in the house for most of the night, and finally asked Yu Wen to show Yu Tang the gift list he was going to give to Pei Yan.

Yu Wen didn't think much, and gave the list to Yu Tang.

Two knives for Xuetao paper, two inkstones for Li Jiahui, two sets of Wujiahu pens, two sets of Hujiahua incense ink ingots, and a pair of boxwood paperweights from Liu Fangzhai... They are all rare treasures among the four treasures of the study.

Yu Tang smiled and said: "Isn't it said that Master Jiang doesn't even have any clothes to change? How can you still send things to Pei's house so generously?"

"It can be seen that he would rather leave the spare energy without eating or drinking and be ready to turn over at any time!" Yu Wen said with emotion, "That's why Dad wants to help him!" He said again, "I think Master Pei San every time you give something. I like it very much, so you can help him look at the gift list. Just now A Tiao came back and said that the Pei's steward received the peanut crisps they sent and took them directly to the inner house."
