The eldest lady respectfully answered "Yes" and smiled and said to the second wife: "It's all because of my poor health. I have two younger brothers and sisters."

The second wife looked unmoved, smiling still softly and quietly, and said: "If a family doesn't talk about two things, the sister-in-law is too polite." She went to give her an embroidered pier in person and said. : "Sister-in-law, sit down and talk."

The eldest wife smiled at the second wife, her smile was very gentle, but also a little weak, so that people couldn't help but fall on her thin body.

Yu Tang is even more strange.

The old man went before the old man. To say that the old man missed her deceased husband. At that time, although she looked a little sad, she was not like she is now...as if she was showing weakness...

She frowned almost invisibly.

Mrs. Shen also felt a little strange. But she is not surprised why the big lady suddenly became like this. After all, from the official wife of the third grade, the future clan wife to the widow-shouzhen woman, no one will be uncomfortable for a while, she is strange. Lao An's glance at her.

What does the appearance of the eldest wife have to do with her?

The relationship between her and the Shen family is not good, and it is impossible for her to come forward for socializing between relatives. She does not know whether the eldest wife and the Shen family are in-laws, but the eldest wife is definitely not in-laws with her natal family. What can it have to do with her?

These thoughts were just a flash in her mind, and she greeted her politely with a few words.

The answer from the old lady was polite and did not make people feel alienated or enthusiastic.

Mrs. Shen praised her secretly and couldn't help paying attention to Mrs. Shen.

With this attention, she found that the old lady looked at her body, but she looked a little bit shabby when she took a closer look.

The shoes have been washed a little white, the outer jacket is white hang silk, but the inner clothes are fine cloth.

Mrs. Shen's heart sank slightly.

She knows that she has an upright personality and often speaks uncomfortable things bluntly, but she feels that this is the attitude that a person should have.

Could it be that after the old master died, the harsh eldest wife of the Pei family, Lao An, was afraid that she would have noticed and shouted out?

This is not impossible.

Especially in the end, the position of Suzerain of the Pei family passed the eldest grandson and the second master to the third master.

You know, the third elder of the Pei family is the heart of the old elder and the old An.

At first, when he burned the Song family's new house, Lao An was not willing to let this young boy say a word of apologetics.

This matter has spread among relatives and aristocratic families.

Mrs. Shen lowered her head to drink tea.

On the contrary, Gu Xi was very interested in the big wife. She not only greeted the big wife enthusiastically, but also asked about the daily life of the big wife with concern. And her questioning was not an ordinary entertainment. Because her topic quickly shifted from copying Buddhist scriptures to writing, she also said that although she copied Yan Zhenqing during enlightenment, she finally practiced with Mrs. Wei, which made the lady's eyes brighten and she was a little bit more energetic when she spoke. .

Yu Tang guessed that the old lady must write well.

She felt a little frustrated suddenly.

It seems that Gu Xi really came to marry Pei Yan, otherwise she wouldn't know everyone in Pei's family so well.

The atmosphere gradually began to warm up because of Gu Xi, and the second lady also slowly merged into the conversation between Gu Xi and his wife. Mrs. Shen's eyes were different from seeing the big wife. She even began to praise the big wife for being a real talented woman.

The elder wife humbled: "Where, it's just that our ancestors like to write, and we grandchildren will benefit from it."

Mrs. Shen felt a little uncomfortable in her heart when she thought that Mrs. Shen's father was Guozijian Jijiu, and remembered that Shen Shanyan refused to teach at Guozijian but was nestled in Lin'an City, and she expressed this emotion undisguisedly.

The eldest wife quickly stopped the topic and asked about the homework of a few Miss Pei and who Yu Tang was.

Several Miss Pei answered the words of the eldest wife one by one, and Miss Four also enthusiastically introduced who Yu Tang was.

Yu Tang made a special trip to meet the eldest wife again.

The eldest lady touched the sleeve of her clothes, and said with a bit of embarrassment: "I didn't expect that there are so many guests at home, and I didn't bring anything here. I will make up for you next time."

Yu Tang gratefully thanked him.

At this time, the eldest wife and Gu Xi climbed up to relatives: "Since you are a girl from the Gu family in Hangzhou, do you recognize an aunt with a boudoir named'Watching'? She married our family, and I want to call her a cousin. "

Gu Xi hurriedly smiled and said, "Is it our aunt in the fourth room? She was out of the pavilion before I was born. However, some people still say that she is the most beautiful girl in our Gu family, but it's a pity that I never met. . I don’t know if it’s true?”

The eldest wife pursed her mouth and smiled, and the waves flowed between her eyebrows and her eyes.

Yu Tang suddenly understood a little bit why the old man and the old wife became so affectionate.

Whoever has such a wife will be more affectionate, right?

The two talked about the Gu family's aunt and grandmother, and the more they talked, the more intimate they became.

Mrs. Shen frowned.

She felt that the big lady had changed the subject because of her. She originally wanted to explain a few words, but several Miss Pei were chattering, making it difficult for her to interrupt, and she wanted to explain again, but she couldn't find a suitable opportunity.

She always felt that she had to find a suitable opportunity to explain a few words to the big lady, lest the big lady misunderstand her and show her face to the big lady. Then she became the kind of person who bullied the big lady's widowhood!

However, Yu Tang observed Lao An and his second wife calmly.

It's a pity that Lao An and his second wife are people who have had countless experiences. If you want people to not see it, no one will see it. One of them was expressionless and could not see the joys and dislikes, sitting there drinking tea, and the other was smiling. Looking at the big wife and Gu Xi, they looked respectful.

What the **** did the big lady do?

Is it just to greet Lao An?

Then why is she in another courtyard?

Yu Tang feels that his brain is not enough, so be an honest person, don't fight against the master, or you don't even know how he died.

She sighed secretly in her heart.

Even if the atmosphere in the room looks warm, without the sincere joy before, it still makes people feel a little tired.

Fortunately, Mrs. Da did not sit for a long time. She only said that for the sake of silence, she had lived in the mountains since the beginning of autumn. She lived in the Qiu Shuangzhai on the west side of the courtyard. Let them mainly refer to Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi, all right. I went to sit with her when she was alone, and when she was alone, she copied the scriptures and recited the Buddha.

Both Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi responded with a smile.

The eldest lady seemed to remember that there was another Yu Tang, and made a special trip to remind Yu Tang, and said: "The snow scene is also good when it snows on my side. You will come and play with a few younger sisters then."

Yu Tang smiled and promised.

Except for Lao An, everyone got up and sent his wife out.

The old lady walked to the door and refused to let everyone see her off, saying: "It's cold outside, just have Aunt Chen."

The second wife also laughed and followed the older wife to stop everyone, but she personally sent the second wife out of Lao An's yard before returning.

With such an appearance, the atmosphere will never return to the past, and everyone sits for a while, and then one after another gets up to say goodbye.

Lao An nodded, and did not leave them, everyone went back to the house.

Shuang Tao followed Yu Tang into the inner room and concealed her fan.

Yu Tang thought she was going to serve her to change clothes, but who knew she smiled and took out an oil paper bag from her arms, opened it and handed it to Yu Tang: "Miss, would you like to eat something?"

The scent of roasted sweet potatoes immediately permeated the inner room, causing Yu Tang to swallow: "Where did you get it?"

Because Yu Tang only brought a maid named Shuangtao, Lao An assigned a maid named Liuxu to serve Yu Tang's diet and daily life. Yu Tang was afraid that Shuangtao would be rude, so she asked Shuangtao to follow the catkins to learn more and learn more. She was served by catkins during dinner and tea, and Shuangtao was waiting in the tea room with a few second-class maids of Miss Pei, and she also took the opportunity to recognize people.

Shuangtao knew that Yu Tang likes to eat roasted sweet potatoes and fried chestnuts in winter, and said with a smile: "It was baked by the maid next to Miss Er, and we were divided into one." Then he smiled and said: "I think several ladies from Pei's family are all It is worthy of everyone’s origin. Not only did she treat others nicely, but the maidservants around me were also very good. The maid beside Miss San also told me a lot of Pei’s rules and said that if there is anything you don’t understand, you can ask her. ."

That's good!

Yu Tang smiled and nodded, pointing to the sweet potato in her hand and said: "Didn't you say that there is one person? You keep it for yourself? In front of Lao An, will my food be short? I will encounter this in the future. It's the matter, you just need to stay close to yourself first."

Shuangtao smiled and agreed, and left half of the sweet potatoes for Yu Tang, saying that he would eat it when Yu Tang wanted to eat it.

Yu Tang didn't say anything, but he was very grateful to her.

Knowing that she was afraid that she would not eat well in front of Lao An after entering the house, she specially left it for herself.

Early the next morning, when they got up, they saw water marks on the hair of the little maid who had brought hot water in. Then they knew that there was a heavy snowfall in the middle of the night.

This is the first snowfall in Lin'an City this year.

Yu Tang and Shuang Tao opened the window lattice in surprise.

It was white outside, and large swaths of snowflakes were still falling like cotton wool. The leaves were already full of snow. From time to time, there were branches that could not bear the weight of the snow, causing the snow piled on top to slip off the leaves and emit "Porp" sounded.

Neither Yu Tang nor Shuang Tao expected the snow to fall so hard.

Shuangtao smiled and said, "You can make a snowman!"

As soon as the voice fell, a blast of cold wind came in, causing both of them to shudder, but because they had been staying in the house where the earth dragon was burned last night, they were still warm and did not feel cold, but the two of them were still warm. Still immediately closed the window.

Shuangtao asked Yu Tang, "Are you going to make a snowman today?"

If you are in Yu's house and encounter such heavy snow, you must make a snowman.

Yu Tang hesitated for a moment, and said, "Let's talk about it after seeing the situation!"

If the Pei family didn't have such a habit, she wouldn't be piled up.

In fact, since she married into the Li family in her previous life, she has never made a snowman again.
