Delicate Flower

Chapter 312: Momo

Pei Yan felt that Chen's rejection was very good.

Yu Tang stayed at Pei's house, and everyone wanted to ask her out. He wanted to go out alone with Yu Tang and would have to think of a lot of ways. It was different when Yu Tang returned to her natal home, as long as Chen and Yu Wen agreed.

Instead, he persuaded Pei Laoan: "This is not a temporary matter. Let her spend a few solar terms in Yu's house this year."

Until next year, it will be celebrated at Pei's house.

Pei Laoan heard his son's unfinished words and laughed. On the day when he went down the mountain and returned to Pei Mansion to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, he gave Yu Tang a lot of festivals and medicinal materials. Back to Qingzhu Lane.

Chen had already prepared a lot of food and waited for her daughter to come back. After seeing Yu Tang, she hugged her daughter and didn't want to let go. Yu Wen still couldn't stand it by the side, and said: "It's not that I can't see it anymore. Do you have to do this?"

"I think the daughter is wrong?" Chen whispered, giving her husband a blank look, and pulling Yu Tang back to her inner room to talk, "You come back, Pei Laoan is not unhappy, right?"

"No!" Yu Tang calmly comforted the Chen family for a long time, and then the Chen family relaxed, waiting happily after Yu Tang changed clothes, accompanied her for a meal, and then went to greet the Wang family together.

Wang was guarding his sleeping grandson to do needlework. Knowing that they had come, he put down his work and greeted him.

Yu Tang respectfully saluted Wang. Wang smiled and took Yu Tang's hand up and down to look at her for a long time. Seeing her ruddy complexion, her eyes were shiny and piercing, she couldn't help but smile: "You mother Mom said that Pei Laoan called you to teach you some housekeeping skills. Your mom and I were afraid that you could not do well, so we were still talking at home for a long time. Now that I see you, I feel relieved. Now, it can be seen that our family Atang and Pei family are still related."

The last sentence, she said to Chen.

Chen's mouth pursed and smiled.

Yu Tang asked about Xiangshi, knowing that she had gone to the shop to deliver food to Yu Yuan, so he and Chen went into the house to see his little nephew, and talked to Xiangshi again. Xiangshi came back.

Wang left Yu Tang's mother and daughter to eat at home, and asked the young man at home to report to Yu Bo and Yu Yuan in the shop, asking them to come back for dinner earlier.

Yu Tang hadn't seen Xiangshi for some days. The two aunts sat in the yard and talked for a long time. When the sun was westward, Yu Bo and Yu Yuan came back, and the house was full of excitement.

When Yu Wen came over, the two brothers had to talk about the Dragon Boat Festival. Yu Yuan quietly pulled Yu Tang's sleeves, and the brothers and sisters stood under the eaves and spoke with selfishness.

"Yesterday I took a big order in the shop," he blinked at Yu Tang. "It's a pen and ink shop in Hangzhou. It ordered a thousand small boxes for ink ingots and asked for a pattern like step by step. Daddy I was very happy, but I asked Yao San to inquire about it and said it was introduced by the treasurer Tong Er from Pei’s pawnshop. Or, let the third master draw us some patterns! We are the first to order this kind of order. Once you pick it up, if you do it well, you can help those pen and ink shops in the future."

Rich people can afford to read books, so the things in the pen and ink shop are expensive. And if you want to carve boxes like red lacquer for decoration, that's a very high-end four treasures of the study.

Such a box is not only well-made, but also elegant in design.

Not all lacquer shops can do it.

If this business can be won by the Yu family, it will open the way for the pen and ink shop, and the Yu family's lacquerware shop will rise to a new level in terms of word-of-mouth and business.

Maybe someday it will become a tribute.

But Yu Tang looked at the teasing gaze of the brother in the lobby, couldn't help but flushed, and said, "That's how our family can make such a box!"

Yu Yuan chuckled.

But Yu Tang knows the skill of the Yu family's lacquerware shop. Seeing Yu Yuan's carelessness, she became a little worried and couldn't help but said: "Brother, there are a thousand boxes, can our family do it well? Or else? , I’ll still ask Master Pei San to draw some drawings for our family? He is a person with a high vision. If he is willing to nominate, he will draw good things."

Yu Yuan did have such thoughts, but his younger sister hadn't married yet, is Master Pei San willing?

Yu Tang didn't think so much, and said, "I'll try it."

In case he doesn't agree, she will grind until he agrees.

Who asked him to suggest that their shop features flowers?

This is really the answer to whoever came up with the idea.

Pei Yan will definitely complain about it.

But he just complains, it's also very interesting...

Yu Tang thought, he couldn't wait to see Pei Yan.

Pei Yan is also not used to it.

When he lived in another courtyard the other day, he had lunch with Yu Tang every morning after he was done with his work, and then he would go shopping together, or go to see flowers or birds, sometimes the weather was too hot. , Sitting in the shade of the tree and saying that the short days of the parents also passed quickly. Now that Yu Tang went home, he seemed to have nothing to do at once.

After lunch, Pei Yan wondered whether to find an excuse to meet Yu Tang, who knows that he hasn't moved yet, Yu Tang came to him first.

He was overjoyed, but did not show up on his face. He asked Aming to take her to the study to talk, but he turned his head and told Qingyuan: "Pour some fruit for Miss Yu. She likes to eat sweet ones. You care about those sweet ones ."

Qing Yuan responded with a smile. When the fruit was washed and brought over, Yu Tang and Pei Yan were sitting on the bamboo chair under the eaves and talking.

"What kind of design do you think is better?" Yu Tang said, "I took a few designs collected at home, and you can help them to see!"

Pei Yan pouted in her heart.

I don’t know if I used this as an excuse? Or is something really coming to him?

But whether it was the former or the latter, Pei Yan took the pattern in Yu Tang's hand with a cold expression, looked at it at will, and threw it all aside.

Yu Tang was very surprised, and said, "Isn't it all right?"

"It's been the same for hundreds of years." Pei Yan made no secret of his contempt, and said, "This is the pattern I saw when I was young." When he said that, he had an idea.

Regardless of why Yu Tang came to him, he can take advantage of it.

"Let's do this," he stood up and said, "I'll draw some patterns for you. Take them back and discuss with your brother to see which one is better. You can polish the ink."

Grind ink? !

Yu Tang couldn't believe what he heard.

But Pei Yan has already strode into the study.

Yu Tang had to follow and confirm: "Where is Aming? Was he still here just now?"

Why is it her turn to rub ink?

Pei Yan slammed and turned around, and Yu Tang, who was following behind him, almost ran into him.

"Can you stay at home for a few more days?" Pei Yan asked.

It took a while for Yu Tang to react, and Pei Yan asked her to hurry up.

What else can she say.

He rolled up his sleeves, and stood obediently in front of the big book case, grinding ink for Pei Yan.

A Ming, who ran to the kitchen to give Yu Tang's heart, was stopped by Qing Yuan outside the study, and Qing Yuan took the dim sum.

Yu Tang only polished ink for Yu Wen, but the ink ingots used by Pei Yan were heavy and astringent. After grinding for a while, Yu Tang felt that his wrist was a little sore. She explained: "I have carefully studied the red paint in your home. It is drawn by the shades of red. I use the fine brush. You know which places are shallow and which places are dark, so it is better to proof."

What else can Yu Tang say.

As a result, those pigments are more difficult to wear away than ink.

Yu Tang couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "What kind of ink ingots are you using? What kind of paint? Why are they so hard to grind away? Isn't it inferior?"

Pei Yan raised her eyebrows and said, "I use all tribute rosin ink, and various gems are added to the paint. Otherwise, how could the color be so beautiful? It will last for a long time."

Such a bad temper!

Yu Tang retorted dissatisfiedly: "I haven't seen it again, how do I know what these are? It's true that it's not easy to wear."

"You don't know how to grind, right?" Pei Yan said coldly, "Except for you, I haven't heard anyone say that it's hard to grind."

That's because those people are the little servants by your side, who would dare to say such a thing.

Yu Tang felt that Pei Yan was not conscious, so he didn't want to do it. He called Qingyuan in and asked if Aming had come back. She wanted to change shifts with Aming.

Seeing that Pei Yan's face was going dark, Qingyuan dared to confess A Ming's whereabouts, so he hurriedly brought in a snack and smiled: "Why don't you miss the meeting?"

Yu Tang immediately requested a break in the meeting.

Pei Yan had no choice but to watch her sitting next to her drinking tea and snacks, and then began to grind the paint by herself.

Yu Tang became more justified and confident when she was lazy and stole.

When Pei Yan drew a picture, the sky had already begun to glow.

Pei Yan gave the drawing to Yu Tang and told her: "You remember to come back tomorrow."

Yu Tang looked at the pattern, it was a magpie resting on a plum blossom branch.

The plum blossoms are sparse and proud, and the magpies are lively and playful.

Yu Tang decided to collect this painting.

She thanked her with a smile, and walked away with the painting.

Pei Yan looked at the painting tools left on the big painting plan, and suddenly felt a little pitiful to be left there alone.

Yu Yuan did not expect that Yu Tang could really ask for Pei Yan's paintings. He was once again amazed by Pei Yan's painting skills, and he hesitated: "Is this all right? Didn't it just use flowers?"

Yu Tang pointed to the plum blossom and hesitated: "Isn't there a flower?"

She completely forgot about it before.

Thinking of Pei Yan's advice, he hurriedly said: "He wants me to go again tomorrow, maybe there are drawings for us?"

Yu Yuan stopped asking more questions, carefully pondering Pei Yan's paintings, and said: "The third master said that we should make patterns according to the depth of his paintings. I have to discuss with the master, and I don't know if we can do it."

Yu Tang was also a little worried, and Yu Yuan went to the shop overnight.

The next morning, Yu Tang also went to Pei's house very early.

The servant woman at the side entrance of the Pei Mansion had been surprised by Yu Tang's visit. When she saw Qing Yuan, she let Yu Tang in.

Pei Yan said: "I'll give you a pair of cards!"

Yu Tang didn't think it was so troublesome, and waited until she could get married, otherwise, she might never use the Pei family's matching cards.

This time Pei Yan didn't let Yu Tang grind the ink for him, and instead asked Yu Tang to fan him.

Yu Tang had given up on reasoning with him, obediently took the Sichuan fan behind him and fanned him.
