Pei Yan was thinking about Yu Tang in her heart, and hurried slowly, and finally returned home in Shen Shizheng, only to learn that Yu Tang had gone with Mrs. Yang San and Miss Xu to the newly bought house in Yin's house and had not yet returned.

Although he muttered in his heart, "It takes such a long time to decorate a new house," he actually understood that if a woman fiddled with these things, she wouldn't feel tired all day.

Does he want to go over and take a look?

Pei Yan was eager to try.

But I feel a little inappropriate...or I feel a little embarrassed.

There was Mrs. Yang San over there, and he could only look at Yu Tang at most, and Yu Tang didn't know his thoughts.

He panicked at the thought of apologizing to Yu Tang last time.

But just staying at home like this, he was a little unwilling.

What should I do?

Pei Yan sat cross-legged on the Zen chair in the study with a calm face, so that the maid serving in the room did not dare to pant loudly.

Fortunately, a letter came from the capital. He frowned and sent everyone around him away. He drew a book from the bookshelf behind him. He stayed in the study and compared the contents of the book to the letter according to the pre-arranged agreement. Translated it.

The letter to him was his mentor, Zhang Ying, the former official minister who had already given him an official position.

He asked Pei Yan to go to Beijing with Pei Xuan after removing his clothes.

Pei Yan looked at the letter, got up after a long while, took out a small blue and white porcelain cup, threw the letter in the small cup and burned it.

Calculating the time, Zhou Zijin probably hasn't arrived in the capital yet.

But he had already sent a message from the flying pigeon and told Zhang Ying of Zhou Zijin's itinerary.

Zhang Ying also wanted him to go to the capital, and asked him to take his brother.

Master, do you want to reuse their Pei family?

But he promised that his deceased father would guard his family business and protect his people in his hometown...

Pei Yan's mood is not very good.

Si Guan Shi came in and asked him to give his instructions: "You said earlier that Manager Hu would come over. There will be a young man from the shop back to Lin'an tomorrow. Do you think you want to bring a letter with you?"

Pei Yan couldn't help but think of the mountain forest from Yu Tang's house.

He frowned and said, "Let him leave the affairs of Zhaoming Temple to someone else and rush to Hangzhou City immediately."

Si Guan bowed his promise and stepped back.

Pei Yan was unintentionally sitting in the study, walking alone along the small lake in the backyard. The sky gradually darkened and he didn't notice it.

Yu Tang and the others came back earlier than planned. As soon as Mrs. Yang entered the door, she asked the four stewards and asked Pei Yan: "Have he ever used dinner? Is it convenient for us to visit him at this time?"

The fourth steward gave Yu Tang a quick glance, and then said: "The third master has been alone since he came back from the Chunfeng Tower. Now he is walking by the lake in the back without having dinner. I am worried what should I do?"

The implication was to let Mrs. Yang make up his mind whether to report to Pei Yan.

Yu Tang was startled secretly, and couldn't help saying: "It's already this time, why hasn't the third master eaten dinner yet?"

In her heart, Pei Yan is a person who values ​​herself more. It has to be a matter of how serious she has encountered before even dinner is useless.

Mrs. Yang was also surprised secretly.

Yu Tang is a very educated little girl. Hearing that Pei Yan didn't use dinner, she was rudely rushing to speak in front of her.

Reminiscing about the relationship between Yu Tang and Pei's family, she thought of a possibility.

Mrs. Yang glanced at Miss Xu.

Miss Xu is very calm. She was held in the palm of everyone's hands since she was a child and grew up. It's nothing at all to talk casually like Yu Tang. Therefore, she didn't notice the look in Mrs. Yang San's eyes when she looked at her. Instead, she thought of a piece with Yu Tang, wondering: "But what happened?"

Of course Si Guanshi would not talk about Pei Yan at will. He replied: "The little one doesn't know. The third master hasn't spoken all afternoon."

The people of the Yin family are not very familiar with Hangzhou. The matchmaker that Yin Hao brought was found by Mrs. Yang through Qin Wei’s wife. Mrs. Yang was very concerned about the progress of the marriage between the Yin family and Gu’s family, and sent it a long time ago. People followed the matchmaker, what happened to the Chunfeng Tower, and she knew everything about the marriage process between Yin Hao and Gu's family.

Yu Tang and Miss Xu followed Mrs. Yang. When Mrs. Yang knew, they knew too.

The three people looked at each other.

Mrs. Yang instinctively felt that Pei Yan was mostly worried about the marriage of Yingu's family, and said hurriedly: "Please help us to tell the third master. If the third master is inconvenient today, we will see you tomorrow."

The fourth steward has also been worried that Pei Yan is in a bad mood. Now that someone asks to see Pei Yan, he is naturally happy to see it happen.

Who knew that when Pei Yan heard that Mrs. Yang San and the others had come back, he immediately invited them to the flower hall by the lake to talk.

While the four stewards went to pass the message, they wondered why Pei Yan had to see Mrs. Yang San and the others in the flower hall.

Is it because there is not only a good view, but also close to where Mrs. Yang San and the others live?

Si Guan thought for a long time and didn't understand, but Mrs. Yang San was already in front of him, he had to stop his thoughts, and smiled and led Mrs. Yang San to see Pei Yan in person.

When they arrived, Pei Yan had already cleaned up the flower hall and arranged tea and fruits.

Pei Yan glanced at Yu Tang and saw her look happy, and she couldn't help showing a little smile, and said to Mrs. Yang: "You have worked hard today! I heard the little servants say that you haven't had dinner yet, and I happened to pay it back. It’s no use, it’s better to let them set up here. We have a meal together. After we have spoken, you can also go back to rest early."

Mrs. Yang readily agreed, thinking in her heart, it's no wonder that people say that Pei Xiaguang is considerate and considerate, and she really deserves her reputation.

Several people sat down, drank a few sips of tea, and ate two fruits. The atmosphere was warm. Mrs. Yang said about her intentions: "I have heard about the Chunfeng Tower. I came here to thank you. Your---your Brother Yin doesn't take care of the general affairs of the house. Some things are unavoidable. If you hadn't reminded him, he would have made a big mistake today."

Pei Yan was puzzled and glanced at Yu Tang.

Yu Tang pursed his mouth and smiled when he remembered the words of the person sent by Mrs. Yang to the Chunfeng Tower.

In the sunset, her eyes were shining like stars.

Pei Yan was in a daze, and when she came back to her senses, she didn't know what Mrs. Yang San had just said.

Seeing that Mrs. Yang was smiling and waiting for him to reply, he couldn't help but his ears were fierce, so he had to salivate his face and say, "You are..."

Mrs. Yang San only thought that she was too tactful, and she smiled and said openly and honestly: "I also know that the dowry of a girl's family should not be so clear, otherwise the girl's family has not married her in-law's family, but first let the in-law's family get up. Be wary, the days to come will only get more and more indifferent. It's just that Gu's situation is different. Gu's father is too uncomfortable. We are evil people. It is better than a girl who marries and then does a little bit of dowry and Gu's father. It’s better if the stepmother has a gap."

Only then did Pei Yan understand that Mrs. Yang had thanked Yin Hao for telling Yin Hao and Gu's dowry in advance.

He didn't take it seriously, and smiled: "Miss Yin is my sister, and I have to be on her side no matter what."

Mrs. Yang nodded and said with emotion: "When the older aunts came out of the pavilion, whether it was Master Zhang or Master Li, they were still studying in the college at that time. The elders in the family wanted to help, but they were afraid of hurting their son-in-law. His self-esteem, this didn’t make any promises about the dowry, just wanted to make the son-in-law’s life a little more prosperous, and put his mind on reading. Mrs. Gu married our family, but they are already successful. It’s better to make some appointments in advance. ."

But if it is agreed, it should be better for Gu Chang to propose it, right?

Pei Yan believed that Gu Chang was a smart person. He looked at Yu Tang, but smiled and asked Mrs. Yang San: "What did the Gu family say?"

Yu Tang opened his eyes wide.

What happened to Pei Yan today? Just say a word and just look at her. Is there something to tell her in private?

She wondered whether to find an opportunity to ask Pei Yan after a while.

Mrs. Yang San over there was obviously very satisfied with the matter this time, and did not notice the eyebrow lawsuit between Yu Tang and Pei Yan, and smiled: "This time the second child is also very reliable. Nothing was mentioned at the beginning. After that, the matchmaker When we talked about the dowry, he said that there is no need to make any agreement, but the Gu family heard about it. Gu Chaoyang offered to agree on the dowry according to the custom of Jiangnan marrying daughters. The elder Gu family was also helping out. It is estimated that Gu Chaoyang was guarded. Father. The second child pushed the boat along and reluctantly agreed."

As for what I think in my heart, I don't know.

But with such a father, Gu Chang would be embarrassed!

Pei Yan's goal was achieved, and of course he couldn't bring this incident to himself. He violently praised Yin Hao against his will.

The aunts of the Yin family are famous for their beloved mothers’ family. Mrs. Yang, a shrewd person, has no doubts. He unceremoniously included Pei Yan’s praise to Yin Hao, and said: "I knew the old man. After the second foreign release, he became more and more capable, and he should have been sent out of Beijing a few years earlier."

Pei Yan had to remind Mrs. Yang San and said with a smile: "It also depends on opportunities. In a few years, Brother Yin will not have to go back to the capital."

Others don't dare to release it, for fear of not going back. However, Yin Hao has an uncle who is currently the elder of the court, and to him, exchanging is like escaping from the life of the elders and playing outside.

Everyone said a few more words, and the four stewards personally prepared the meal.

No food and no words.

Yu Tang always felt that Pei Yan had been looking at her, but when she looked up, she could only see Pei Yan bowing her head to eat, she could only think that she was thinking too much.

Pei Yan wondered how to find an excuse to send Yu Tang back. It is a pity that Mrs. Yang and Yu Tang lived next to each other, and he did not find a chance until he ran out of dinner.

The next day Gu and Yin officially celebrated. Yu Tang was dragged by Mrs. Yang and Pei Yan was dragged by Yin Hao. The two did not meet each other for a day, let alone say a word.

Pei Yan decided to go back soon.

Hu Xing rushed to Hangzhou at this time.

Seeing him, Pei Yan felt pleasing to his eyes a lot. Before he settled down, he called him to the study and asked him about the mountains and forests of the Yu family.

Hu Xing's mind turned quickly.

He has told Pei Yan several times about that mountain forest. This time Pei Yan's old things are brought up again. Does this want him to find a way out for the Yu family's mountain forest? Or did he not pay attention to the past, don't remember, and ask him to ask again?

Hu Xing thinks it may be the former.

With Pei Yan's cleverness, it is impossible to have a bad memory.

But he really didn't know what to do with that mountain forest!

Hu Xing felt bitter, but he said flattering words honestly: "You are so knowledgeable, and the farmer in the farm can only grow oranges in the summer after listening to your words. You are born to be an idea, and I am born to be An errand runner. Just tell me, I promise to do it properly."
