Chapter 164: Surprised

It was Ah Tiao who came to deliver the letter to Yu Tang.

Seeing Yu Tang, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Miss, the young master asked me to come. He said that he has received your letter, so he will do what you want. He also said, at home. Everything is fine, so don't worry, the business has been negotiated. When you go back, we will celebrate again." After speaking, he took out a letter from his pocket.

Yu Tang smiled and nodded, opened the letter, and immediately read it.

In addition to the few words A Tiao said, Yu Yuan also praised the ten paintings of Zhang Gongzi in his letter, saying that the merchant was very satisfied, and he also came up with twelve taels of silver each to buy the paintings. Yu Yuan wrote to her with two meanings. First, I want to make this business-the merchant’s home is in the embroidery business, and he came to their home to buy boxes and cages to make the goods in the family shop more complete and make the embroidery business better. Therefore, the business of the two companies is not only There is no conflict, and they can promote each other. The second is to discuss with her, if you sell the paintings to the merchant, should you give the Zhang family money? How much money should you give to Master Zhang?

And because the merchant is leaving Lin'an for his hometown these few days, the finished cages are delivered by their family. This matter must be decided before the merchant leaves Lin'an. He has just received a letter from Yu Tang. So A Tiao sent the letter back immediately.

Yu Tang concealed his letter and thought for a while, and then replied a letter to Yu Yuan.

It’s okay to sell paintings. The money for selling paintings can be divided into half with Zhang’s family, but you have to write a contract with the merchant. These ten paintings are unique to their Yu family, and the merchants took them and only restricted them to their shop. It is not for resale. If it must be resold, it can be reported to the Yu family by means of a document, and the Yu family’s consent has to be paid again.

Because it was getting late, it took at least an hour and a half to return to Lin'an City. A Tiao immediately got up to leave after receiving the letter and returned to Yu's house.

Pei Yan knew that besides Yu Tang staying in the other courtyard, there were also Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi in the other courtyard. There were outsiders. He could not go directly to greet Lao An, so he went back to the courtyard where he lived. After freshening up and changing clothes, someone was sent to ask Lao An when it would be convenient to see him.

It's just that the person who sent out hadn't responded, he heard that someone from the Yu family had come to deliver a letter to Yu Tang.

He couldn't help being surprised.

Yu Tang's letter was sent back, and the family immediately replied to her. I couldn't wait for a day. Could it be that something happened at home?

Pei Yan thought of Mrs. Yu's illness, and also thought of the 30 acres of fertile land from the Li Duan family bought by the Yu family...

He called Hu Xing, who was serving Lao An here, to come in: "What happened to Miss Yu?"

Hu Xing has been helping Lao An wholeheartedly in the other courtyard these days. He knows which dish the ladies and the distinguished guests eat more and which dish is less. He has never heard of what happened to Miss Yu. What's the matter!

He was dumbfounded.

Pei Yan was originally dissatisfied with his ability to do things. Later, because he saw him infatuating with Lao An, and Lao An also needed a handy person on his side, he just opened his eyes and closed his eyes, let him Continue to have a vegetarian meal at the position of the manager. Now that he looks like this, Pei Yan is even more dissatisfied, and even this dissatisfaction is directly expressed on his face.

He sternly said: "What? Don't you know?"

The third master only killed all the male servants over five years old who had served the grand master's family for many years, and sold all the women and children. The whole mansion was trembling, all discussing in private that the third master was neither as kind as the old lady nor as tolerant as the old man, not at all like the people of the Pei family, and some people envied Hu Xing for a blessing in disguise, and went to the old man in advance. Serve there.

Hu Xing was grateful in secret, but he was terrified. At this time, when asked by Pei Yan, he shuddered, his legs were soft, and he almost knelt down. It took a long time to make a sound, and he stammered: "Ms. Yu and the other ladies are playing very well. Get up and go to bed early. , And occasionally walked along Mingshan Lake, and just went to Meilin with a few young ladies to enjoy the plum..." He was about to cry, "Really, I really didn't find anything wrong with her!" , His instinct couldn't help but make him dare to say, "Besides, Miss Yu is a young lady, even if I want to know something, Miss Yu will not talk to me!"

Pei Yan looked slightly dizzy.

Hu Xing wiped his cold sweat secretly, feeling like he was escaping from death.

But then, he began to reflect on how he could say that he couldn't get close to Miss Yu, and why Pei Banquet looked slightly stunned because of his words...

For a moment, he felt as if he knew something extraordinary.

Hu Xing looked at Pei Yan's eyes differently.

Pei Yan didn't see Hu Xing in his eyes, so naturally he wouldn't pay attention to his slightly changed expressions.

He thought for a while and said, "Miss Yu and the others are still enjoying the plum blossoms in Meilin?"

Hu Xing said hurriedly, "Yes, I have written a poem."

I can finally answer a few sentences, which is a bit useful!

Pei Yan glanced at Hu Xing blankly, and said, "You quietly bring a letter to Miss Yu and ask her to wait for me by Merlin for a while. I have something to ask her."

Don't take any assault, right?

Why do you want him to bring the letter?

Hu Xing was very bitter in his heart, but he dared not show it half way. Not only did he bow his head respectfully, but he also made a joyful expression that he had won, and said loudly, "I'm going now!"

Pei Yan hummed coldly.

After receiving the letter, Yu Tang didn't think much about it. After whispering to Lao An, he found an excuse to leave the warm pavilion.

Miss Wu just finished a six-character quatrain, and when she saw it, she couldn't help but said: "Sister Yu, what is this going to do?"

Several people wrote poems together. Gu Xi was the first to do it. Miss No. 3 came second, and Miss Yu was the third. Miss No. 2 and Miss No. 5 followed closely. Miss No. 4 was still writing poems with her head down.

Everyone is ready to write it and give it to Lao An, Mrs. Shen, and the second wife to comment.

Lao An didn't think much.

Now that Yu Tang knows the strangeness of Li's land sale, Pei Yan must also know.

She guessed that Pei Yan should ask Yu Tang about this.

It’s just that it’s not easy for these little girls to know. Her old man also slopped his eyes and said with a smile: "Who has nothing to do, you child, you have to pretend not to know when you should pretend to be confused. You should ask. Just say straight away, you have to practice before you can go out." After speaking, he also glanced at the second wife.

The second wife laughed and said, "Don't worry, I will teach her well."

Lao An said "um", and the incident was revealed.

Gu Xi thought about it a thousand times.

It is obvious that the Yu family’s little servant came to find Yu Tang. When Yu Tang came back, he only said that the family came to ask her about the shop. Even Lao An wanted to know everything he wanted to know, and now he swaggered from the poem. After leaving the meeting, she felt that things were not easy no matter what she thought.

And He Xiang was more complicated than Gu Xi.

She took a chance to get to Gu Xi's ear and whispered: "Miss, the third master is up the mountain."

Yu Xi raised her eyebrows.

Hexiang knew that she wanted to hear more details, so she quickly said: "I just found out about Miss Yu. The third master has not yet come to greet Lao An. I heard that she will come after dinner. "

What is Yu Tang doing?

Gu Xi felt uneasy in her heart.

The second lady hasn't found out how Yu Tang suddenly appeared.

She winked at Lotus.

Hexiang knew, and quietly left the warm pavilion.

After a while, the fourth lady's poem was finished.

The second lady teased the fourth lady: "We are all waiting for you!"

Miss Fourth pouted dissatisfiedly: "Didn't I say that I want to barbecue? It's you who want to make poetry, and I have no preparation at all."

"How are you going to prepare?" Miss Third joked rarely with Miss Fourth, "Before you come, read Bai and Li?"

Bai refers to Bai Juyi, and Li refers to Li Bai.

Miss Fourth retorted with a guilty conscience: "Can't it work?"

Everyone laughed.

Lao An said: "Then look at Si Yatou's poem first."

The fourth lady twisted and let the little maid serving her hand over the poem.

Gu Xi said, "Aren't we waiting for Miss Yu?"

Lao An said with a smile: "It's getting late, don't you have to eat barbecue later? Don't wait for her."

Gu Xi pursed her mouth and smiled, and went forward to watch the poem written by Miss Si, but half of her mind was paying attention to when He Xiang would return.

It was just a stick of incense, and the lotus appeared in the warm pavilion silently again.

This time I didn't use lotus to find a chance. Gu Xi directly said that she was going to the official office and took lotus to stand in the unmanned plum forest.

He Xiang's face was a bit solemn.

She said: "Miss, there is something wrong with Miss Yu, she is going to see the third master!"

Gu Xi was stunned, but there was an inexplicable solidity in her heart.

She said solemnly: "What the **** is going on?"

"I don't know what's the matter," He Xiang whispered, "I came out of the warm pavilion and slowly looked in the direction where Miss Yu was going, but found that the road leads to Mingshan. The pavilion by the lake. In the pavilion besides Miss Yu, there is also a young man in a white cloak. I wanted to come closer and find out that there were seven or eight guards standing in the dark around the pavilion. I was shocked. , Said it was your personal maid, you asked me to go back to the house to get something, but I got lost, and then got out. Then I met Mr. Hu again, and after a few trials, I realized that the young man was the third member of Pei’s family. master."

Gu Xi was silent for a while, and said, "What do the three masters look like?"

He Xiang's face turned red, and he whispered: "He is very handsome and has a refined temperament... Among the people I have met, only the eldest son can compete with him."

Gu Chang is a well-known beautiful man in Hangzhou.

Gu Xi's face was also a little hot.

Thinking of Yu Tang, she couldn't help but frown.

What is Pei Yan going to do?

He meets with Miss Yu privately, does Lao An know? Still sloppy at the two of them knowing it?

Then in what capacity did Miss Yu appear in front of Pei Yan?

After all, she and her brother were still careless. They didn't expect that there would be a woman like Miss Yu in Lin'an City.

Is she going with Miss Yu? Still think of a way to make Miss Yu disappear from Pei's mansion?

Gu Xi was a little undecided for a while.

She said to Hexiang: "Can you find a way to know the relationship between Miss Yu and Master Pei San. Especially Lao An, do you know..."

If Lao An knew it, what was the idea of ​​Pei's fight?

This is what she should pay attention to and care about.

Gu Xi let out a long sigh.
