Delicate Flower

Chapter 230: discord

Of course, Yu Tang didn't know that her small move attracted the attention of the family members of Song and Peng.

After re-adjusting his mentality, Yu Tang not only finished copying the Buddhist scriptures smoothly, but also tasted the iced rice cake with enthusiasm.

It's a bit similar to their Lin'an crystal cake. However, their Lin'an crystal cake is made of tapioca flour, which is shining and more crystal clear. Fengcheng's iced rice cake is made of rice, which is whiter.

It can be seen that many cakes are the same, just change the raw materials and then change the name.

Yu Tang decided to copy a few pages of Buddhist scriptures to Pei Yan, so that the Bodhisattva would bless him everything goes smoothly.

Shuangtao, who had sent sweets and snacks, came back, and brought back a gift from Miss Xu. She said: "Ms. Xu is so good. Seeing that I was having a hard time holding it, she asked Ah Fu to accompany me to a few Miss Pei. However, a few Miss Pei were not there and said she was out to go shopping at the market. After the things were left, they came back." Then he also talked about the incidents of the female families of Song and Peng on the way, but did not tell her Miss Song’s troubles, only said that they picked oleanders and went back: "Fu will see you. Miss Pei was absent, so she talked to the wife in the fifth lady’s room. Fu said, anyway, we have said everything that should be said. As for the second wife in the fifth lady’s room, Miss Song Whether something happened to Ms. Peng and others because of the oleander depends on their luck. Even if the Bodhisattva knows, it can't be said that we didn't help the ladies of the Song family and the Peng family." She was also full of gratitude. "Miss, I think I came out with you this time. I know how stupid I am when I met Ah Fu and the others. I will definitely read more and want to talk less in the future, and learn how to serve you, Miss you, from them. "

Yu Tang smiled straight and said, "Are you planning to be a servant woman for the rest of your life? Are you not going to be released?"

In the previous life, after the fall of the Yu family, she did not sell Shuangtao, but instead let go of her status and chose an honest merchant for her, but she was not very comfortable. Specifically, Yu Tang asked a few times, but she stubbornly vaguely passed it. Later, Yu Tang had a lot of things, so she didn't have time to take care of her. Therefore, the eldest mother in this life acted as a matchmaker for Shuang Tao and asked her to marry Wang Si, which Yu Tang thought was very good. At least Yu Tang can still protect her.

Shuangtao waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "What's so good about letting go? The old man and the wife are kind, and the lady treats me well, I like to stay at Yu's house."

When the young lady hired a son-in-law, the Yu family was still the young lady's head, and she did her best, and the young lady won't treat her badly.

This incident was like a spring breeze. As soon as it blew, she cared more about the oleanders picked back by Miss Song and Peng: “I didn’t expect this family to be divided into three to six or nine grades. A maid next to Miss Xu knew about oleanders. The peach is poisonous, but the ladies of the Song and Peng families don't know. It can be seen that Miss Xu's house is really powerful, and there is a reason why those ladies flatter Miss Xu."

Yu Tang said: "I often pick oleanders by others, and I haven't heard of anyone who has been poisoned? It's just that the smell of oleanders is unpleasant, and everyone doesn't like to use them for flower arrangement. Maybe it's because of the difference between north and south, no Is there a saying that'Huaiju is a trifoliate'?"

The two wentssiping for a while, and several Miss Pei rushed over.

After seeing the Chen family, Miss Fifth took Yu Tang’s hand and said: "We went to the temple early this morning. There were a lot of snacks, but Ah Shan refused to buy it. I didn’t buy it. However, I also found it. thing."

She flushed, and excitedly took a palm-sized boxwood comb from her pocket.

The comb is of ordinary material, but it is carved with a plump carp appearance. Compared with the common appearance of a magpie on the branch and a century-old harmony, it is so amazing.

"It's so beautiful!" Yu Tang praised sincerely.

Miss 3 and Miss 4 both pursed their lips and smiled.

Miss Wu put the comb in Yu Tang's palm and said, "This is for you."

Yu Tang was both surprised and delighted: "Is it for me?"

Miss Fifth proudly raised her jaw towards Miss Two.

The second lady glanced at Yu Tang inexplicably.

Although Yu Tang didn't know the reason, she would definitely not tear down Miss Wu's stage at this time. She hurriedly said: "Oh, I like it so much. It's just that gentlemen don't take advantage of people. I can just take a look at such an interesting comb. You should put it away and take it back for later use."

Miss Wu grinned, took out an identical comb from her pocket, and said, "Look, I also have one."

Yu Tang was slightly stunned.

Miss No. 3 and Miss No. 4 laughed haha, and said, “We bought several in one go, and bought all the combs on the stall. As a result, Miss Wu and the others did not buy them. We happened to have one each.”

Is it the Miss Song Liu that Miss Wu who wants to marry into Pei's family?

Yu Tang felt a little uncomfortable, but still couldn't help but curiously said: "What the **** is going on? Tell me about it!"

The fourth lady happily talked about meeting Miss Wu and Gu Xi at the stall outside the temple: "The two wore curtain hats, surrounded by a bunch of maids, and they also brought guards... I can see... pick three picks four... this one she has seen in Beijing, and that one she bought in Suzhou too, for fear that others will not know that she is from a wealthy family... she is not afraid of thieves... , Staying by the side, my face is stiff with laughter!"

There is something about Gu Xi in this? !

Yu Tang raised her ears and heard Miss Wu sigh there: "We should have taken Sister Gu away at that time."

The second lady frowned and said, "Sister Gu is not you. You can buy everything on other people's stalls because of your young age, and deliberately say that we are one sister in front of Miss Wu. Miss Wu Yi I went to the place where Sister Gu lived early to block the door, and replaced it with you. Can you refuse? Besides, who would have thought that Miss Wu was so high-profile! Sister Gu was also affected by her."

The third young lady was worried and said: "The Wu family used to be a water bandit before. Their family will not still be doing their job secretly now, right?"

"How is it possible?!" The second lady immediately retorted, "If their family is still in the old line, the third uncle will definitely not let our family and their family. The Wu family is used to domineering in Huzhou, Miss Wu is just a recipient of the family. It’s just an impact."

After hearing this, Miss Si whispered: "I don't like Miss Wu anyway. I don't want her to marry our house."

The second lady laughed with anger, and said: "Even if our family wants to marry, there must be a suitable candidate. You should worry less about this. Let's care about your own affairs!"

"What's wrong with me?" The fourth lady blushed and said with a guilty conscience: "I want to tell my grandma, you bully me!"

The second lady glanced at her like a fool, and ignored her.

Miss Fifth explained to Yu Tang quietly: "People from the Peng family want to marry a girl from our family and come in."

It looked like that, I didn't think of myself at all.

Maybe it's because she is the youngest.

Yu Tang pursed his lips and smiled, feeling that whether it is the Peng family or the Wu family, it is estimated that this time will be lost.

She put the comb away and solemnly thanked the young ladies of Pei's family.

After they asked about Yu Tang's body, they knew that she would be better long ago, and they started to chat about offering Buddha incense tomorrow.

Gu Xi over there also returned to her residence.

It was just that she had just stepped into the hall, and saw that her brother Gu Chang, who was supposed to be still discussing with Pei Yan, was sitting on the grandmaster's chair in the middle hall with a calm face, looking like she was waiting for her.

There was a chuckle in her heart, she energized her and smiled at Gu Chang, and said warmly: "When did Brother come here? Didn't it mean that it was possible to have dinner at the Third Master at noon? Did something happen over there? "

Yesterday, her brother came to see her first as soon as she arrived at the temple. Then she knew that for her marriage, brother had deliberately discussed the current errand and went back to Hangzhou. Knowing that she was here, she came after her again.

The siblings had a dispute over her and Pei Tong's marriage yesterday. If Brother A's entourage ran in and said that Pei Yan had free time, the two might have quarreled.

Brother has a stern face, is this to continue telling her about Pei Tong?

Gu Xi was a little scared in her heart.

Brother has been protecting her since she was a child, and she discussed everything with Brother. Only the marriage with Pei Tong was done by her first, and Brother must be very angry.

Gu Xi thought, she took the initiative to offer a cup of tea to Gu Chang, and said softly: "Brother, don't be angry with me. I know you are for my good. But I also have my own ideas. No matter how good Pei Xiaguang is. He despised me, and became Pei’s suzerain again, and he was decisive in his official career. I don’t want to marry someone like him. Look at the Li family, didn’t you shout that their girl was chosen by Pei Xiaguang before? But if you look at it now, you still don’t say such things. Isn’t it because Pei Xiaguang can no longer be an official? No matter how bad Pei Tong is, it’s true that he can read books. It’s true that there is a foreigner who is willing to help him. Yes, the eldest grandson of the Pei family's clan is true. Besides, Pei Xiaguang is ashamed of him, and he will definitely not be less financially. We take the opportunity to get rid of the right of inheritance from the Pei family's clan and let our children and grandchildren study well as officials. Strong in this small place in Lin'an?

You didn't say it before, the Pei family is a good match.

The eldest wife sent someone to talk to her home again and again, and promised me that if I married, I would accompany Pei Tong to look back at home and study.

As you know, the eldest wife lives as a widow and it is impossible to leave Lin'an.

On this basis, I am willing to marry. "

"Nonsense!" Gu Chang was surprised when he got up and looked around, "How can a daughter-in-law refuse to serve her in-laws? I think I'm not at home, your courage is getting bigger and bigger."

Gu Xi covered her mouth and smiled.

Brother really loves her.

She thought of the hapless Li family, and could not help but talk about the Li family's affairs: "Is there any chance of a comeback in their family? I heard that Mr. Shen is running around for their house. This kind of thing is too nasty. I think Mr. Shen is like this. , It will ruin your reputation."

"What do you know?" Gu Chang saw that there was no one around, and felt very peaceful. He sat down again and rebuked his sister. "Li Duan is a student of Mr. Shen. He has only two ways to go at this time. One is with the Li family. To draw a clear line, the second is to run for him. Taking Mr. Shen as a person, he must run for him, otherwise how could he end up resigning and returning to his hometown? As for the Li family, it depends on whether Pei Xiaguang is willing to give it to them. The family helped. Today, Dali Temple Shaoqing is Zhang Ying’s second son, and has a close relationship with Pei Xiaguang. If he greets him, the Li family fines some money, and it is not impossible for him to retire."
