Having said that, Pei Yan was still very angry, and continued to complain to Zhang Ying with Yu Tang: "He is also an old world. Since he can't completely retreat, he should arrange a future for the people around him. If he can't, he will completely retreat. , Don’t ask about world affairs. Thirty years in Hedong and Hexi in thirty years, who can stand on the peak and never come down? When reading history books, each one understands each other, and when it comes to oneself, one is more unwilling than one. One thought he would be an exception. The Xu family was the most powerful in the capital. How did the Zhang family go up? Didn’t the Xu family say that they wanted to find a way to pull the Zhang family down? Who is this? The first, who is second, was originally going round and round. It should be trying to find a way to stand in the first echelon, rather than always trying to get the first."

Yu Tang listened quietly, pondering slowly in his heart. The more I ponder, the more I feel that Pei Yan's words make sense.

It’s not easy to get in, and it’s not easy to get out.

It was the answer to the phrase "every family has a hard-to-read sutra".

It can be seen that the wealthy families also have their own difficulties.

And Pei Yan just murmured a few words in front of Yu Tang. The usual cold face made Mr. Chen's heart chill. He had a lot of things to ask Pei Yan but didn't dare to ask, let Pei Yan relax for a while. Up.

This person can't help thinking about things when he is idle. Fortunately, Pei Yan was well prepared, and painted with Yu Tang in the cabin every day~lightnovelpub.net~", Xiaoyao was happy like a fairy, and made a bashful Yu Tang simply broken into a jar, like a bell like nothing. As if it happened, I forced my composure when I saw the second wife, and discussed with the second wife whether Pei Yan, Yu Tang and others should stay in Liaocheng for a few more days since the second master sent someone to pick them up in Liaocheng.

According to Pei Yan's opinion, there is nothing good to see, but the second wife wanted Yu Tang to stay for a few days, and said: "This time we are separated, I don't know when we can meet?"

If Pei Xuan's official luck is good, he may be transferred to the capital after three years of commenting on a "capable official". If the official luck is not good, he may be transferred to a farther place after his nine-year tenure expires. No matter where they go, as long as Pei Xuan does not become an official, there are not many opportunities for them to meet.

Although Yu Tang couldn't bear the second wife and the fifth young lady, he followed Pei Yan even more.

Gu Xi wanted to get off the boat to have a look.

Although they were all on the boat, they stayed on the boat for a month, and there was the elder Pei Yan on the boat. She was only in the cabin for eight or nine times, so she was really bored.

She asked Pei Tong: "You often visit your third uncle these days, how does your third uncle treat you?"

Pei Tong was a little embarrassed.

Pei Yan is not close to him. Pei Yan was in his hometown when his father was there. When Pei Yan was admitted to the capital, he moved out from Pei’s old house in the capital. Later, his father passed away, but the supremacy of their house was handed over to Pei Yan... He didn’t treat Pei Yan very much. To understanding.

For more than a month, Pei Yan made him feel as if he had gone wrong.

Pei Yan likes to take Yu Tang very much, and tells Yu Tang to post, draw, fish, and even take Yu Tang to hang out on the deck in the evening.

He is a nephew, so naturally it is not easy to come forward.

In this way, although he often looks for opportunities to meet Pei Yan, in fact, even if he meets, he rarely has the opportunity to say anything.

He felt that this was a way for Pei Yan to tactfully refuse him to get close.

It's just that he is embarrassed to tell his wife that he seems to be incompetent, and he can't handle even this little thing.

Pei Tong said vaguely: "It's okay."

Gu Xi sat down and said to him expectantly: "You might as well talk to your third uncle. We stay in Liaocheng for two days, and you and your second uncle can also have a good talk. I saw you this time and I don’t know what it is. I can see you at time! As for the fear of delaying the trip, it is better to add some money so that the boatmen can hurry for a few days and nights."

Pei Xuan is still very good to Pei Tong.

Pei Tong hesitated.

It's just that he hasn't waited for him to figure out how to tell Pei Yan about this matter. The ship has docked at the Liaocheng pier. They did not wait for Pei Xuan who came to pick up his second wife, and they waited for an assistant Pei Xuan to bring to Liaocheng.

"Master three." He respectfully saluted Pei Yan, handed a letter written by Pei Xuan to Pei Yan, and said, "Master second said, he is waiting for you in the capital."

Pei Yan was very surprised. After reading the letter, he learned that Pei Xuan had just received the official seal of the Shandong chief envoy, and the imperial decree came from the center of Beijing. Pei Xuan was appointed as the right servant of the Hubu, and he was restricted to Beijing on the 15th. appointment. Pei Xuan, the chief envoy, hadn't secured his official seal, so he handed it out and rushed to the capital overnight.

This is a high promotion!

The people on the boat were so happy that they couldn't talk from ear to ear, and ran to ask the second wife for a reward.

The second wife happily opened the cage and took out the silver beans to reward everyone.

Pei Yan frowned, picked up Pei Xuan's staff and rushed to the capital.

I never imagined that as soon as the ship left the dock, it was stopped by the prefect of Liaocheng who had rushed over to hear the news. He insisted on seeing Pei Yan off, and also laid out the relationship between him and the Fei family: "Fei Zhiwen is my uncle."

Pei Xuan's staff also whispered beside Pei Yan: "It's the cousin of Master Fei's father who doesn't have a third service."

Pei Yan had to disembark for entertainment.

Gu Xi poked Pei Tong: "You follow along!"

Pei Yan did not call Pei Tong, and Pei Tong hesitated.

Gu Xi encouraged him: "Opportunities are created by people, and they will be given to those who actively use him."

Pei Tong followed cheeky.

The prefect of Liaocheng was naturally very enthusiastic, and Pei Yan did not drive him. He breathed a sigh of relief and slowly let go of socializing and socializing with those people in Liaocheng officialdom, and gradually felt the joy of getting out of water.

Pei Yan did not stop him, but also created some opportunities for him.

Pei Tong returned to the boat and looked at Gu Xi again. She felt that she was worthy of Gu Chang's sister. Some words made sense.

Taking advantage of his drunkenness, he tentatively discussed with Gu Xi: "Let's go back to the capital and live in the old house!"

Before he left, the eldest wife asked him to live with his grandfather, but he made up his mind to live in his own house in private.

Gu Xi wondered: "Are you planning to live with your grandfather's house before? Didn't we talk about this before?"

Pei Tong blushed and hesitated: "I'm not afraid that you are not used to it? I think you have been staying in the cabin these days..."

Gu Xi interrupted his words a little forcefully, saying, "Unaccustomed is unaccustomed, but you can't do things that dislike the elders and let others read jokes just because you are unaccustomed. We followed our third uncle back to Beijing and moved in. The Pei’s old house, serving the elders, is what we should do. Who can pick one out."

She knew that her mother-in-law was not enough to succeed, so she took the opportunity to beat Pei Tong a few times.

Pei Tong hummed a few times and stopped talking. Seeing that, he agreed with Gu Xi's words.

Gu Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

They traveled day and night and finally arrived in the capital before the Buddha Bathing Festival.

Mr. Shu and Zhou Zijin came to meet them at Tongzhou Wharf. They were accompanied by Zhang's third son, Mr. Zhang.

When Pei Yan got off the boat, Zhou Zijin gave him a bear hug.

Master Xiao Zhang looked at him and smiled, and said to Pei Yan: "Welcome to Beijing. Your second brother was called into the palace by the emperor. There is no way to pick you up today. We will return to the capital tomorrow. We are in Lai Shun Lou. You take the wind and wash the dust."

"Farewell." Pei Yan pushed away Zhou Zijin, met with Master Xiao Zhang, and smiled, "Tomorrow I will have something to eat at our house, and then I will visit my teacher."

Now that the situation in the capital is complicated, Mr. Zhang did not reluctantly, he just said with a smile, everyone did not go to the inn, but stopped at the largest inn in Tongzhou City.

Master Xiao Zhang also brought his wife over.

Special trip to receive the female relatives of Pei's family.

The third wife of the Zhang family was born in a wealthy family in the north. She is tall and robust, plump and fair, with the bold enthusiasm unique to northerners.

"I have long heard that Xia Guang married a peerless beauty. I saw it today and it is indeed well-deserved." The third wife of the Zhang family smiled and said to Yu Tang, "Since you are in the capital, you can take a good walk in the capital, Tan Zhe Temple, Hongluo Temple, Chang'an Avenue, all to go and see."

Yu Tang liked such a straightforward person very much, and thanked him again and again.

It was also the first time that the second wife and Mrs. Zhang San met each other. They greeted each other, accompanied by Mrs. Zhang San to dinner in the back of the Bao’s yard, rested for the night, and changed the carriage to the capital the next day.

For the first time in his life, Yu Tang rode a carriage, and felt that although it was more magnificent than a mule carriage, it was also more bumpy.

The second wife endured all the way, and vomited when she got out of the carriage.

Before Yu Tang had time to carefully examine the appearance of Pei's old house, he hurriedly helped the second wife to arrange for the second wife's house.

Fortunately, Pei Xuan had already left the office. He had been waiting at home a long time ago. When he saw that the second wife was vomiting and her face was pale, he hurried forward to pick up the second wife personally, and helped the second wife serving the tea and pouring water.

Upon seeing this, Yu Tang immediately retreated and returned to the yard where he lived.

Qing Yuan has begun to instruct the maid-in-law to arrange the residence, and the maid in charge of the inner courtyard here has been respectfully waiting outside for Yu Tang to be summoned.

Yu Tang was also too tired. She didn't want to force herself. She talked to the maid surnamed Min, and she was relieved. Qingyuan served her, freshened and changed clothes, and went to the inner house to entertain the female guests. Hua Ting, I went to entertain Mrs. Zhang San.

Mrs. Zhang San learned that the second wife was vomiting and couldn't eat dinner with them, and she blamed herself: "I thought you would not be used to it, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful. I would not have rushed back with their men. . Anyway, we don’t eat with them either."'

"Everyone didn't expect it." Yu Tang and her were polite, led Miss Wu and Gu Xi, and hosted Mrs. Zhang San on behalf of the Pei family.

After Mrs. Zhang went back, she kept praising Yu Tang in front of the old lady of the Zhang family: "She looks so beautiful! Together, none of the female families of our family are more prettier than her. No wonder Xia Guang was unwilling to marry the Li family back then. someone's girl."

Mrs. Zhang didn't care much about this, and asked the fifth Miss Pei Dan: "How about that little girl?"

Mrs. Zhang hesitated and said: "The person hasn't grown up yet, but the mold is printed in the same mold as Mrs. Pei. Looking at it, the temperament is very gentle..."

It's good for such a little girl to marry in and be the second daughter-in-law. But being the eldest daughter-in-law... is a bit wrong. Besides, he is still five or six years old.
