When Yu Tang got home, he wrote a letter to let A Tiao run to Zhang's house.

When Ma Xiuniang received Yu Tang's letter, she began to urge Zhang Hui to draw aside, but Yu Tang met with Pei Yan the next day with a headache.

The Rizhao case must not be mentioned, otherwise she can't explain how she knew it, so she can only spend her time on the fifty acres of Yongye field.

Fortunately, the Li family left enough flaws.

The next day, Yu Tang changed into a newly made dark green woven silver and pink Hanging silk twill with four seasons wishful flowers. He wore the goose-yellow magnolia silk flower made a few days ago and went to Pei's residence.

Pei Yan looked tired, and his expression was a little lingering, but it didn't hurt people's handsomeness. On the contrary, because of the usual nobleness, it made people feel approachable, and felt cordial and warm.

"What are you looking for me in a hurry?" He casually leaned on the Luohan couch in the Nuan Pavilion, pointed to the fruit plate brought by the little maid, and said, "Try it, Fujian’s fortune cakes, everyone said it’s pretty good. food."

Fujian’s Fortune Cake is a kind of dried persimmon made in Fujian. Because of its bright color and red color, it is sweet but not greasy when eaten in the mouth. It also has the effect of clearing away heat and moisturizing the lungs and relieving cough and asthma. It is used as a snack or even soaked in water. The drinks are very good, and I got the name of the fortune cake.

However, fortune cakes are usually on the market during the twelfth lunar month.

I don't know where it came from?

Yu Tang couldn't help but said: "I heard you went to sell oranges? How are they selling? Are they delicious?"

Pei Yan raised her eyebrows when she heard this, staring at Yu Tang rather unkindly: "Selling oranges? Who did you hear that I was going to sell oranges?"

Yu Tang knew it was going to be bad when she heard it, but she didn't know how the words came to her and it became "selling oranges". No matter who has given the wrong words, with Pei Yan's temperament, if he is upset, he might actually investigate the matter. Wouldn't it make everyone uneasy?

With a calming attitude, she hurriedly said, "I said the wrong thing! I mean, I heard that the oranges grown in the farm in Ji'an are on the market. Didn't you go and check it out. I took it for granted- —Since we have started collecting oranges so early, we must have already figured out the sales channels. If you rush to talk, isn't it a'selling oranges'?"

Yu Tang felt that this was enough to give Pei Yan a step, who knew that Pei Yan seemed to be deliberately smashing her, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Who told you that I am not going to sell oranges? A total of five thousand catties of oranges. , They were all sold to Shanglin Garden, and 5,000 saplings were also sold."

Had it not been for him, the people of Shanglinyuan could be so honest, paying the money and delivering the goods with one hand?

Can their oranges be sold to the capital?

Yu Tang dropped his chin in shock and said, "Shanglinyuan still buys oranges?"

She was envious.

Why doesn't their family have such an ability?

But even if it was for the people in the palace, it was also the business of the eunuchs in the 24th Yamen. When would it be Shanglinyuan, who planted trees and flowers for the royal family?

"You don't understand this?" Pei Yan said calmly, "If the royal garden has income, will the emperor be happy? Not to mention the oranges that have been fruited so early."

In other words, Shanglinyuan is playing tricks!

Yu Tang squatted: "They, aren't they afraid of being discovered? What if the emperor wants to go and see the orange trees?"

"The emperor is busy practicing alchemy. How can I care about the number of orange trees planted in Shanglinyuan!" Pei Yan said disapprovingly, "If he really wants to go, I will try to move a few from my orchard in Tongzhou. The orange tree is over. How else would they buy oranges from our family in Shanglinyuan? Isn't it because our farm in Tongzhou also grows oranges. But the oranges here are not as delicious."

Yu Tang has been dumbfounded by this wave of operations. In her opinion, this is a way to waste money. However, the things that the official government did to the people and money were not one or two, and she had no intention of attacking or saying more.

She didn't expect Pei's family to have a farm in Tongzhou? !

Where does Pei's family still have no farms?

Yu Tang slandered in his heart, changed the subject, and said, "Isn't this fortune cake also made in your country estate?"

Pei Yan noticed her ruddy face when Yu Tang entered the door, thinking about what Pei Man told him that she not only won the favor of his mother, but also got along well with his nieces. The first time I met, I chatted with her about what style of clothes she would make for a long time, and got a reward from his mother.

You know, his mother is not an ordinary woman, and not everyone can win her favor.

He just wanted her to come into the house to make his mother happy, but he never thought that it would be like a fish in water for her.

Look at this, when he was busy in Ji'an, she had a very leisurely life in his house.

Inexplicably, Pei Yan was a little embarrassed, wanting to tease Yu Tang, not wanting her to look like everything is going well in front of him.

He couldn't help but curled his lips when he heard the words, and said: "Our family's hands are not as long as you think. Fujian is the place of the Peng family, the Yin family, and the Li family. I am not prepared to be enemies with these families at the same time. This fortune cake It was delivered by Li’s family. It is said that it was made for my family. It is very different from what is sold in the market. You can taste the difference.

Listening to his tone, Yu Tang didn't seem to like these sweets very much, so where did the peanut crisps she made?

Could it be that it was always pretending to be in the past?

She couldn't help saying: "Then what do you like to eat? If my mother knows how to make it, I will give it to you next time."

Pei Yan looked dispensable and said: "I don't have anything that I particularly like or dislike. If you have something fresh, just try it. I don't like to eat fortune cakes, mainly because Lao An didn’t know where I heard about it. Eating more fortune cakes can cure my cough. Since I was a child, I have been cooking persimmons with water every day. I feel uncomfortable smelling it."

Yu Tang suddenly met a confidant and said hurriedly: "Then I am just like you. My mother always feels that children have a bad stomach and have to drink porridge. Since I was a child, my mother liked to let me drink porridge. When I get older, I don’t want to serve a bowl when I look at the porridge.

Are you still growing up?

This is only a few years old, no matter how long it is, it will only take more than ten years.

Pei Yan listened to her interestingly and was very happy. There was one word that spoke to Yu Tang without a word. It was not until Chen Qi sent the account book to let Pei Yan look through. Then Pei Yan remembered and asked Yu Tang seriously: " What can you do with me?"

Chen Qi on the side looked at Yu Tang more.

The third master is the most impatient to gossip, why are you so happy talking to a little girl today?

However, this little girl is young, but she speaks and does things in a decent way. Did the third master have a fancy to this young lady?

When he left the study, he went to inquire about Yu Tang's origin.

It's no secret that Yu Tang was with Lao An. Although she didn't publicize it, she didn't deliberately avoid it. Soon, Chen Qi inquired clearly about the causes and consequences of her entering the house.

Everything is good, but the rank is a bit low.

Chen Qi wondered in his heart.

Neither Yu Tang nor Pei Yan thought so much. Yu Tang told Pei Yan about his intentions this time: "You told me that the Li family was short of money for activities in Beijing, and I felt that the Li family was too impatient. Since it is a temporary need, with the reputation of the Li family, it is to carry an empty box with a seal and go to the pawnshop to be a pawn. There must be a pawnshop willing to sell the favor of the Li family, so why bother to sell the fifty acres. Where is Yongyetian? However, I heard a news a few days ago that the things Li Jun escorted back from Rizhao by his father's orders were indeed rutted. I was thinking about this when I was fine at home these days. Do you think this is a blinding method? How many families in the Li family don’t know. The people in Lin’an are all watching their family succeed. If Li Yi is really greedy for money in Rizhao, he has to think about it. Has this silver been washed white?"

Pei Yan listened, and the light on her face slowly began to converge. When Yu Tang finished speaking, Pei Yan had already sat upright, looking at Yu Tang solemnly: "What do you mean by that? Think? Press Li Duan into the mud and rub it again?"

Yu Tang's face flushed as he listened.

She does have this meaning.

But Pei Yan was too straightforward.

When others heard it, they thought they were discussing how to make money and kill them!

She blinked and said, "I heard that the Li family will move to Hangzhou city soon, and Li Duan is also going to the capital to study with his father. If they really leave Lin'an city, the second son of the Wei family I can't get revenge?"

Pei Yan couldn't understand it, and said, "Li Duan has already put a linen and filial piety for the second son of the Wei family, and the marriage between Li Duan and the Gu family has also failed. Do you think this is not enough?"

He felt that Yu Tang was too persistent.

She and the second son of the Wei family were just married, and they didn't even make a marriage appointment.

Did Miss Yu take a fancy to the second son of the Wei family?

Pei Yan stroked his chin.

Yu Tang said: "Repaying grievances with virtue, how can I repay virtue? I just hate someone again, at most, cursing him in private that he will not die. Li Jianeng did not hesitate to harm the second son of the Wei family for his own benefit. It can be seen that their family is not a good thing! And our family, if it weren't for your shelter this time, maybe we would end up like the second son of the Wei family, and even the family might be ruined! Why should I let go of such a family? they?"

Pei Yan looked at her angrily little face, and suddenly thought that when he was a child, he was bullied because of the jealousy of his classmates. He not only fought back, but also beat the dog to the ground. Not only did the bully never dared to provoke him again, even watching him The lively people did not dare to provoke him easily. However, his father felt that he was not broad-minded enough, and he severely reprimanded him for this... Thinking about it this way, he felt that Yu Tang seemed to be justified in doing so.

After all, Yu Wen is just a small talent. If he can pull the official family like the Li family down, others will definitely not dare to bully their family casually in the future.

"Let's talk! How do you want me to help you?" Pei Yan said happily, "I will have to reconcile the account with the account later."

The implication, let Yu Tang not waste his time.

Yu Tang smiled embarrassedly and said, "Can you help me check what Li Duan's father did when he was an official in Rizhao. It is impossible for ordinary people to be a prefect to send so many things back?"

She actually wanted to ask, the same piece of land, why can only the two hundred acres of Yongye field of the Li family be able to grow green rice? If he is interested, she can take out the 30 acres of land that she has acquired for Pei's family to study. Maybe Pei's family can also grow bi-stalk rice.

It's just that Pei Yan's front foot just said such a thing, and she mentioned it on the back foot. It is easy for people to misunderstand that she wanted to exchange terms with the Pei family, and instead disappointed Pei Yan's kindness.
