In the previous life, because of the Li family, Yu Tang had heard about the aristocratic families in several counties around Lin'an. Therefore, when Yi Laoan and Pei Laoan talked about the marriage of the second lady, she pricked her ears to the side to listen.

"It's my cousin's grandson. She was lost since she was a child. She grew up in my cousin's house. She also followed my cousin's nephew. Later, when he got older, he followed his father to take up the post. Up to now, the servants around him are still From my cousin’s family, the child’s character and morals are trustworthy, and he is of the same age. It just depends on whether the two of them have fate.” Yi Laoan said humanely.

She is about the same age as Pei Lao'an, but she is not maintained like the second wife's sister like Pei Lao'an. Her hair was gray, wrapped in a forehead, and her forehead was wrinkled at the corners of her eyes, but her eyes were smiling and loving.

It can be seen that Pei Laoan has a very good relationship with her, and he bluntly said: "Then what is the situation in his family? No matter how good the child is, it is very troublesome to have a mother-in-law who is in the family."

Yi Laoan laughed softly and said, "This child's stepmother is not someone else. It's a girl from the Qian family. Although she's a sideline, she has good upbringing and behavior. You might even recognize it when I say it."

The Qian family is a big family, Lao An was a girl from the clan house before, and the girls in the side branch may not all recognize them.

"Which room is the girl? What is the name of the girl?" Pei Laoan said with interest.

"It's an offshoot of the eight rooms outside of your Qian's house. The girl's name is Xiao'e." Laoan Yi expected her to be like this, and smiled, "She said she knew you. This time the child will come over and she will also accompany her. Come here together, I want to greet you. I also want to have a conversation with Pei's family."

Pei Laoan thought and thought about it, but she couldn't remember such a girl in her natal family.

She apologized: "I will send someone back to my natal home to ask, lest I don't know anything when I meet."

This is what it means.

The old man Yi nodded and said, "The child's father is not foolish. He said when he found someone to support the child as a matchmaker. Except for his biological mother's dowry, he is the eldest son of the family and should be his first one. The points will not be less. I want to find the second girl of our family, just thinking that after the second girl enters the door, she can take care of the middle school and let the child have a caregiver. I wondered, I want the child to go back to his hometown to study."

There were so many people who failed the imperial examination several times, and it was impossible to live in the capital to prepare for the examination. It is estimated that the family wanted his son to stay in his hometown after he married the second girl to study and take care of the affairs, and brought his successor to live in office.

This is also good.

There is no need to set rules in front of the stepmother.

Yu Tang thought, Miss Wu, who was making silk flowers with her behind the Bisha cupboard quietly approached her, and whispered to her: "Sister Yu, we won't tell Sister Si."

Miss Fourth has always wanted to know who the blind date was with Miss Second.

Yu Tang pursed his lips and nodded.

After hearing the old lady Yi said that the man was called "Yang Yan", she wondered if this "Yang Yan" was the "Yang Yan" she knew in her previous life.

The Yang Yan she knew in her previous life was from Tonglu. There was a tea mountain in their family, and they produced a kind of tea named "Xueshui Yunlu". The tea was shaped like a silver sword, with a hint of green, the soup was tender and green, and the taste was sweet. Lin's favorite, every year he sends someone to Yang's house to buy tea.

Before her death, the tea of ​​the Yang family became tribute tea.

It was Yang Yan who did this.

Yu Tang was very impressed.

It can be seen that Yang Yan is capable.

If this is Yang Yan, Yu Tang thinks it should be pretty good.

When Pei Laoan sent Yi Laoan to rest, she asked Aunt Ji who served the tea in the house: "Does Master Yang's house grow tea?"

Aunt Ji said "Ouch": "Miss Yu also knows this family?"

Yu Tang hurriedly said, "I heard that their tea is good."

Aunt Ji didn't think much, she smiled and said, "It's their home. Their tea is fragrant and sweet. This time Lao An Yi came here and brought a lot of their tea. I'll let the tea house bring some to you later. In the house, you can taste it too."

The fifth young lady on the side said: "My second sister's marriage hasn't been completed, so our family will drink their tea. Is it appropriate?"

The people around Lao An liked the childish and introverted Miss Wu. For fear of frightening her, she would reply in a soft and detailed way every time she asked. This time is no exception.

Aunt Ji said: "It was brought by the Yi Lao'an, so we can only remember the goodness of the Yi Lao'an. If it was given by the Yang family, we naturally can't ask for it."

Miss Fifth nodded and whispered to Gu Tang: "That family's surname is'Yang', which is the same as my eldest aunt's maiden name!"

Yu Tang was taken aback, not knowing what Miss Wu meant by this. Miss Wu had changed the subject and said, "Sister Yu, besides tea, do you know anything else about the Yang family?"

"I don't know." Yu Tang said embarrassedly, "I also occasionally drank their tea before I knew Yang's family. Specifically, I am afraid I have to ask Yi Lao An."

"My mother must know it too." Miss Wu's eyes rolled round and round, and she whispered, "Sister Yu, let's ask my mother."

Instead of saying that she is caring about the second lady's marriage, she wants to know more about the man's situation. Fortunately, she shows off in front of the fourth lady and makes the fourth lady anxious.

Yu Tang smiled, unwilling to accompany her to play nonsense, and said: "If this marriage is done, you want to inquire, I will definitely accompany you. But these characters have not yet been written, we asked and asked. If it doesn't happen, Miss Yu's face will be dull!"

Miss Wu thought about it, no longer insisting on asking about the Yang family.

But they didn't inquire, but Gu Xi inquired clearly.

For dinner, Lao An's pick up Yi Lao An. After dinner, the big family moved to the second room to drink tea in the east. Lao'an and Yi Lao'an were served by the second wife, and she and Mrs. Shen whispered to each other, while the juniors whispered to themselves. .

Lao An didn’t know what he said, but Yi Lao An called the second lady, and the fourth lady jumped out immediately and asked the fifth lady triumphantly: "Do you know whose second elder sister is going to marry?" It's the Yang family of Tonglu. The eldest son of their family."

Miss Fifth missed the opportunity and felt that her face was dull, her small face flushed red, and her eyes looked at Yu Tang with aggrieved expression, as if she was saying, "You don't want me to inquire, it's all right now, Sister Si knows better than I do." It's more".

Yu Tang stroked his forehead, thinking about how to comfort the fifth young lady. The voices of the elders suddenly stopped. The young ladies were unclear, so they all calmed down and looked at Lao An.

I saw Lao An with a faint expression. He raised his hand and drank a sip of the tea gently, saying: "We will get rid of the service in September next year. We also need to think carefully about the marriage of Xia Guang. However, you also know us. Family, since the generation of the elders, they don’t always advocate that the marriage should be handled by the parents. Why should you take a look at each other to see if there is any eye contact, otherwise there will be a pair of resentful spouses in the family. It's upset. So, I want him to pick it up for the dazzling marriage. If he is satisfied, there is nothing wrong with me."

This is talking about Pei Yan's marriage!

When the juniors heard it, they didn't dare to make any noise, and all the eyes were fixed on the elders.

The old man Yi is okay, and he smiled and said: "I say so, but it can't be too outrageous. He can marry whatever he wants, and you have to ask about it."

Lao An sighed and wanted to say something, but Mrs. Shen suddenly said in a sharp voice: "Since ancient times, marriage matters should be decided by parents. How can Lao An let the third master come here? I heard that, people Li family At the beginning, he valued the three masters very much, and even offered to marry the two families. The third masters were lukewarm and never hired. Seeing that the girl at home couldn't delay the job, the Li family renewed the marriage. The third master of your family is too arrogant. Even if you look down on the girl from the Li family, Master Li treats him like a nephew, and Master Li has also helped a lot with the affairs of the master. Otherwise. How could your parents’ room have a gracious quota?"

Both Yu Tang and Gu Xi were shocked.

Lao An’s eyebrows were upside down, and he slapped the table with a slap. Several porcelains all staggered and made a crisp clash: "No one can speak no one will treat you as a dumb! I am your elder anyway, yes. Are you so ruthless in front of your elders? Excuse our family for inadequate hospitality. Our family can't receive guests like you. Aunt Chen, go down the mountain and talk to Mr. Shen and let him come and pick you up early tomorrow morning."

Everyone was shocked when such a change suddenly occurred.

Especially Mrs. Shen, who was directly driven out by Lao An, stood up suddenly, blushing as if dripping blood, and the corners of her mouth curled up, "You, you, you" did not say anything for a while.

The old man Yi was dumbfounded, holding the hand of the woman next to him, looking at a loss.

Lao An didn't mean to turn off the flame, and sneered: "What? Isn't I right? I tell you, this is the Pei family, not the Shen family. The Shen family is a self-student, and it is not easy to be familiar with you. , You really regard yourself as an onion, thinking you are doing everything right. Today I will not allow you to be so temperamental, instead of your parents to teach you, tell you how to behave." Then aggressively asked her: "Who told you we Does my family look down on Miss Li? Are you a woman who has lived in the country for a long time, saw it with your own eyes or heard it with your own ears? Don’t you usually pretend to be a scholar? As soon as he entered the officialdom, he was appreciated by Master Zhang and Master Li. Master Zhang is his teacher, so it is right for our family to be taken care of by him. But Master Li is different, how can our family’s family receive his favor not often? To greet?

"This really responds to the phrase'the benevolent sees benevolence, and the wise sees wisdom'. In the hearts of people like you, our family and Master Li have ulterior motives, and don't involve any interest or affection for your children. I didn’t feel happy. I didn’t want to say it in my heart, and even spread rumors. I said, "How come we are always attracted by Chuan Li’s family outside, and I want our family to be their son-in-laws? It turns out that it’s you guys." The long-tongued woman chews the roots of her tongue there. Are you full and okay? Just take care of your son, daughter-in-law, and the head of your family.

"It's been more than ten years. If the head of the house doesn't go back, do you think people outside will praise you as a virtuous woman?

"First clarify your own affairs and then give pointers to other people's affairs!"

Mrs. Shen's face was blue and white after being scolded by Lao An, she suddenly covered her face with her sleeves and ran out.

Lao An was reluctant to forgive, and said loudly to Aunt Chen: "If you take someone to look at her, she will die at Shen's house and Wang's house. Don't dirty our house."

Mrs. Shen's maiden name is Wang.
