Delicate Flower

Chapter 212: Undercurrent

The female relatives of the Wu family did not stay with Pei Lao'an for a long time, but the Chen family was taken by Mrs. Yang and recognized all the female relatives of the Pei family. When she returned from lunch from Pei Lao'an, Miss Xu followed Yu Tang to the wing where Chen and Yu Tang were resting. Yu Tang gave her half a bottle of perfume. Miss Xu was very happy and said: "This The scent is good." He said, "Sister Yu, don't worry, I will return a bottle for you in a few days."

Although Yu Tang liked this fragrance very much, she found out that it was also sold in Hangzhou City, and it was not something to ask for, so she smiled and said, "No, you can use it if you like it."

Miss Xu was not too polite, and said: "Then I will thank you so much." After that, she got up and said goodbye: "Sister, take a nap first, and I will come to play with you later." Then she pointed to where they lived. Next to the wing, "Mrs. Yang and I live next to him."

Yu Tang responded and sent Miss Xu out with a smile, but turned around and was called to Dongjian by the Chen family.

Chen was sitting in front of the large book table near the window and writing, when Yu Tang came in, he hurriedly waved to her: "Come and help me see."

Yu Tang smiled and hurried forward, and found her mother was writing the names and features of the Pei family's daughters whom she saw today.

"What are you?" She was puzzled.

Chen smiled and said: "We are from Lin'an after all. We didn’t have access to Pei’s family before. Now we often walk around Pei’s mansion. How can the wives and grandma of Pei’s mansion meet and not know each other? You know our family has a simple population. I have been following you dad for so many years, and your dad is protecting me with everything. I have experienced few things, so I am afraid that I will forget and offend people when I meet again. I think that a good memory is better than a bad pen. Having an impression, remembering all the people you meet today will be good for you in the future-it is also a kind of respect for others if you don’t remember other people’s names incorrectly."

Yu Tang felt that her mother was right.

She took a chair and sat down beside her mother. Together with her, she recalled the people she saw today and recorded what they looked like. From time to time, she commented in a low voice and talked about some gossip about Pei’s house. .

Just like playing games with her mother when she was a child, Yu Tang not only didn't feel tired, but he was also full of interest and found it very interesting. Had it not been for Miss Xu to come and play with her, she hadn't realized that an hour had passed.

They forgot to take a nap.

The mother and daughter smiled at each other, but they were very happy in their hearts.

Yu Tang hugged her mother's arm and wondered whether when Miss Xu studied the genealogy, she was as happy as she and her mother did, so Miss Xu would be clear about the relationship between those aristocratic families!

She suddenly became kind to Miss Xu.

When Miss Xu triumphantly took out a bottle of perfume that was exactly the same as hers, she also praised her with a smile like coaxing her little sister: "You are amazing! I found a bottle of perfume that was exactly like mine so soon. ,how did you do it."

Ms. Xu was very happy to hear her saying that, her voice unconsciously raised a few points, and she raised her eyebrows towards Yu Tang, and said, "Do you know what the Wu family does? It's for transport. Their family runs every year. It takes a lot of energy to manage the dignitaries in Beijing. What can the dignitaries in Beijing lack? At most, it is rare for things from the sea. Your incense dew looks like things from the sea. I sent someone to ask their homes. Their house immediately took out seven or eight kinds of fragrances for me to choose." Then, she blinked at Yu Tang like a treasure, "If the Wu family doesn't have one, I can still ask the Song family. They Song family The most ostentatious thing is that this kind of rare thing, the female family of their family must show it off." Finally, she also said sincerely: "Wait for my sister to go to my place to play, and also pick a few bottles of other scented fragrances to bring over. "

Yu Tang pursed his mouth and smiled, and said, "You are so smart!"

"Of course." Miss Xu was relieved.

Yu Tang thanked her and accepted the fragrance she brought over.

Miss Xu likes her even more.

She feels uncomfortable, although she is of average origin, she is generous, and she is truly neither humble nor overbearing.

She couldn't help but continue to chat with Yu Tang: "The people of the Wu family are also famous for their beautiful looks. Otherwise, their girls would not be able to marry the Jiang family and become the eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. My aunt said, that It’s because the Wu family used to be water bandits, and the wives they married were all beauties from various places, so their family members looked fair and beautiful. However, the Jiang family also gave the Wu family a bad head. I can ask. It’s clear that this time there are only two young masters from the Wu family, but a lot of young ladies, from eighteen to fourteen years old, and one is more prettier than the other. Including the one who is said to be no better than their family who married to the Jiang family. The tenth Miss Wu from the eldest lady. I think the Wu Family must want to marry their girl to Master Pei San."

Yu Tang was taken aback and hurriedly said, "You keep your voice down! Be careful that there are ears on the wall, which damages the reputation of others."

She did not doubt her guess.

Miss Xu was taken aback for a moment, and then she burst into laughter, her eyes gleaming as she was about to rub Yu Tang's head: "You are so interesting!"

Yu Tang tilted her head, avoided her hand, and groaned: "I don't want to comb my hair again, don't touch my hair."

Miss Xu laughed again and promised: "Don't worry, I have brought a woman who can comb her hair, a maid who can comb her hair, and I can send someone over to help you at that time."

Yu Tang tittered secretly.

Just like their family, it would be nice to have a servant woman who can comb her hair at the same time. Gu Xi from the previous life married to the Li family, but she married a woman who can comb her hair. This woman also took care of helping Gu Xi clean up. Clothes, run errands for Gu Xi's nurse. The ladies of Pei's family are just a maid who can comb her hair alone.

It can be seen that the Xu family is really rich.

Miss Xu asked Yu Tang again: "You really can't visit Master Pei San? I'm so surprised what he looks like? You said, if something happens to us, will he come and see in person. After all, there are so many female families living here..."

Yu Tang was flustered and stopped her saying: "What are you going to do? If something happens to the female family living here because of you, do you think you will be able to sleep peacefully in the future? Besides, it's rushed but not fast. , Why do you have to force it? Don’t we have to stay in the temple for four days? How do you know that you will never have the opportunity to see the third master of the Pei family?"

"What you said makes sense." Miss Xu thought for a moment, and said, "I was indeed too anxious."

Yu Tang's heart moved when he saw it, and said: "Why are you so anxious to see the third master of the Pei family?"

Miss Xu blushed, and she was silent for a moment before telling her in a low voice: "Our family also wants to marry my cousin to Pei Xiaguang. However, my cousin is only sixteen this year, and she is a little young. Pei Xiaguang should get married in addition to clothes. I guess Pei’s family won’t agree. But according to my uncle, whether he agrees or not, he has to give it a try."

Yu Tang opened her mouth wide, causing Miss Xu to laugh again.

She also knocked on Yu Tang's head and said, "Otherwise, what do you think Mrs. Yang is doing here? You don't really think that everyone is here to listen to the lecture, do you? It's Lao An Pei, and it may not be there. Such thoughts."

Yu Tang didn't speak, he felt his chest was stuffy, and his face was a bit unsightly.

Miss Xu was still immersed in her thoughts, and did not notice Yu Tang’s strangeness, she continued to murmur there: "I don’t know who else will come. I have a look at the ones that are here now, and it may be. The Peng family doesn't mean it. Ah..." She suddenly exclaimed in a low voice as if she had discovered something remarkable.

Yu Tang was so shocked by her that her heart became tense, and said hurriedly: "What's the matter?"

Miss Xu grabbed Yu Tang's hand and whispered to her: "Do you think the Peng family will be at odds with the Pei family? The Peng family is in Fujian, which travels thousands of miles away. Why do they come here to join in the fun?"

Yu Tang's heart was pounding wildly.

Miss Xu is too smart.

When it comes to navigation maps, the Pei family must be wary of the Peng family, but if the Peng family is also very wary of the Pei family, does it mean that the Peng family has discovered that the Pei family is already on guard against them? If so, one day the Peng family and the Pei family turn their faces, and the Pei family may not be so easy to deal with the Peng family.

Does Pei Yan know the attitude of the Peng family?

Yu Tang took a few deep breaths, and his mood slowly calmed down, and his mind began to turn quickly.

No matter how smart Miss Xu is, she must be smarter than Pei Yan. Since Miss Xu can see through, Pei Yan must also be able to see through.

She should believe Pei Yan.

Yu Tang took a few more deep breaths.

"Am I scaring you?" At this time, Miss Xu, who realized that Yu Tang's face was a little pale, said in hindsight, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"No, no." Yu Tang was a little flustered, trying to whitewash her peace, but she didn't know why she herself was flustered, why she wanted to whitewash her peace, "I never thought about this kind of thing, so I felt so surprised."

Miss Xu believed her.

She has seen too many girls like Yu Tang, who usually only care about clothes and flowers, and are not interested in outside affairs.

"I'm sorry." She apologized, "I just like crazy thinking, don't worry about it, I'm also guessing. Maybe it's because Fujian is too far away, so Peng's family will only have a few female relatives here. . For this matter, my mother has said that I am several times, and I am just too idle."

"No, you are so good." Yu Tang saw her getting upset and comforted her, "I sometimes like to guess like this. However, you know more things than I do, and we guess things are different. Like. I sometimes see the maid next door carrying a basket of pickles when she goes out, and when she comes back, the basket is empty, so I guess if she has secretly exchanged the pickles for silver."

Miss Xu laughed and raised her eyebrows, and said: "Then you guessed it right?"

"I don't know!" Yu Tang smiled, "I have never had a chance to prove it."

"But I guess right most of the time." Miss Xu said, "Yin Mingyuan has been ill since he was a child, and he has no wind or rain. He wants to study at our house again. I want me to play with him. If I don't bring He, he would cry, and the maid next to him would come to my grandmother to file a complaint." She angrily said, "I had to accompany him to study. Later, when I grew up, I knew how to deal with him-I didn't agree. He speaks."
