Delicate Flower

Chapter 356: Not going

Xu Xuan ran over early the next morning.

Yu Tang was dressing for Pei Yan who was about to go out. He was taken aback when he heard the words, and asked the little maid who came here: "Is there anything important that Mrs. Yin said?"

The little maid shook her head and said, "Mrs. Yin didn't say anything."

Yu Tang let the little maid lead Xu Xuan to sit in the flower hall first, and continue to help Pei Yan arrange his clothes.

Pei Yan snorted unabashedly, and said, "I'll be back early this afternoon, and I will accompany you to take a look on the street at that time."

There is a dragon boat race on the Dragon Boat Festival in Beijing. He is going to accompany Yu Tang to watch the dragon boat race. Today, he went to Zhang Mansion to say hello in advance. He will not say hello to Mrs. Zhang on the Dragon Boat Festival.

Yu Tang wanted to laugh at the thought of Pei Yan complaining that she had failed to learn with Xu Xuan last night, but considering Pei Yan’s bottom line, she had no choice but to say no, and said with a smile: "I know! I will advance. prepared."

Pei Yan nodded in satisfaction, but when she ran into Xu Xuan when she went out, she still brushed past Xu Xuan with a cold face.

Xu Xuan looked at Pei Yan’s back without knowing her, then looked at Yu Tang, and said: "What's wrong with him? You quarreled?" Before the voice was over, she denied it again, "No, you should No quarrel. Pei Xiaguang, this person, if he quarreled with you, he would definitely be furious. He looks like this, not as angry, as if not waiting to see me. Where did I provoke him?" Then she started to Yu Tang complained about Pei Yan, "It's not that I said your Pei Xiaguang, his temper is really stinky. That is to say, you have a good temper and can live with him. According to me, if he does this again, you might as well leave him alone. Leave it in the capital..."

Yu Tang smiled, personally took the loquat washed by the little maid, and handed it over, and said, "Try it, it was just delivered from Fujian a few days ago."

The golden loquat made Xu Xuan's appetite very appetizing, and Pei Yan's cold face was no longer pursued.

Yu Tang asked her, "Is there something wrong with you coming here so early?"

Xu Xuan swallowed the loquat in her mouth hurriedly and said, "It's really something."

Yu Tang listened respectfully.

Xu Xuan said, "I asked Yin Mingyuan for you last night. It is said that the eldest son of the Qin family is good in appearance, character, and talents. If he is married, he is a good candidate. But I am afraid of mistakes, so I ask Yin Mingyuan to inquire carefully. , I also found my natal sister-in-law. She likes to drop by. She can definitely find out about the Qin family."

This helped the Pei family a lot.

Yu Tang was very grateful, and decided to wait for Xu Xuan's news to be more certain, and then invite the second wife to come over and talk to Xu Xuan.

The topic of the two of them unknowingly shifted to Fei Zhiwen.

Xu Xuan told Yu Tang: "Lao Fei will be in the capital in two days. Most of it is related to Fei Zhiwen's marriage. Whether your family should marry the Qin family or not, you have to make an idea."

For people like them, sometimes the marriage can be settled without the good of the children, mainly depending on the political position of the parents.

Yu Tang smiled and said, "Then wait until the marriage of Fei and Qin is settled."

Xu Xuan talked about Xing Zhengnong, and told Yu Tang a lot of Beijing anecdotes, and she also made an appointment with two families to watch the dragon boat race.

Yu Tang looked at her pregnant belly and hesitated: "Can you do this?"

"Oh, let's talk about it then." Xu Xuan waved her hand disapprovingly, "I'll leave this to Yin Mingyuan."

Speaking of it, Yin Mingyuan's temperament is indeed very gentle.

In the afternoon, Pei Yan came back early, and Xu Xuan got up early and wanted to go home.

Yu Tang felt a little sorry for Xu Xuan, and asked Xu Xuan to take a large basket of cherries back to eat.

Xu Xuan said, "I can't eat it if I take it home. If you really want to help me, let me store the cherries with you. Every time I come, you ask the little maid to wash a plate."

Seeing what she said was deep and affectionate, Yu Tang had to agree.

But Pei Yan said coldly beside him: "Isn't there still Yin Mingyuan? If he can't even eat a few cherries, he would be a good husband." Then he told the young man, "Help Mrs. Yin move into the car!" "He said, "Don't worry, when you come to our house, you can eat as many cherries as you want, so you can't stop talking."

What this said.

Xu Xuan was unhappy on the spot, and said, "Are you saying that our family Mingyuan can't be better than you? You just relied on our Atang's temper."

Pei Yan's eyes were cold and cold.

Xu Xuan raised her head and sneered, and said, "I don't want Ah Tang to be embarrassed."

The implication is that you dare to be so headstrong because you didn't put Yu Tang in your eyes.

Pei Yan turned blue with anger.

Xu Xuan squeezed Yu Tang's hand quietly, apologized in a low voice, and said, "I really can't understand him like this, so I have to ask you to come forward and coax him." Then she ran away.

Yu Tang couldn't laugh or cry, comforting Pei Yan: "She is also kind, so you can treat her as a child."

Pei Yan said: "If she is a child, can she talk about things in front of you every day?"

Yu Tang smiled and said, "Isn't it said that one slap won't make a sound? I like to hear her say this too!"

Pei Yan was angry.

Yu Tang had to continue to coax him: "Didn't you say to accompany me to the streets? If we continue to say this at home, the shop will probably be closed."

The shops in the capital closed earlier than they did in Lin'an. Usually the doors are closed one after another in the evening, but most of the shops in Lin'an are open until the lights are in hand.

Yu Tang talked about this to Pei Yan on the carriage.

Pei Yan said: "It's because of the weather. It's cold in the north, especially at night. When everyone goes back to the house, who will come out for shopping?"

His temper comes quickly and goes quickly.

The two talked and laughed. In addition to recognizing the face of the century-old brand, they also bought a lot of food and small decorations that had nothing to do with the Dragon Boat Festival.

Qing Yuan smiled and helped Yu Tang pack things up, and Gu Xi came over.

Yu Tang was a little surprised.

Although she lives in Pei's mansion, Yu Tang doesn't like to contact her very much, so she avoids the twilight and calmness. The two don't meet each other too much.

Yu Tang invited Gu Xi in.

Gu Xi's gaze shifted around the messy small objects on the table, and then she smiled and sat on the chair next to her, and talked about her intentions this time: "...My aunt asked me to ask what you have. She can tell the kitchen to pay more attention to the things she doesn’t eat.”

Is this going to be Yu Tang as the main guest?

Yu Tang thought that Patriarch Yang had invited his second wife.

Yu Tang simply told Gu Xi of his decision: "Something happened temporarily here, I'm afraid that there is no way to go to the Yang family as a guest. Since you are here, it is better to bring me a letter to the Yang family."

After she finished speaking, she smiled apologetically.

In fact, I was thinking, since you like to find things on the pole, then do something for you to do well.

Gu Xi was very surprised. After hesitating for a while, she asked, "Is it because Mrs. Fei is coming to the capital?"

Yu Tang couldn't help but raised his eyebrows.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xi's news was so well informed.

Gu Xi could see clearly, but regarded Yu Tang's eyebrow raising as a surprise, and she did not hide her pride. She pretended to say indifferently: "I heard the third grandmother of the Li family say it. She is about the same age as me, her ancestral home. Tonglu. My second lady’s in-laws are from the same hometown."

The second lady of Pei's family married to Tonglu.

Gu Xi likes to make friends with the mistresses of these wealthy families just like in her previous life.

She also cleverly said: "Are you planning to go to Fei's house as a guest? Second aunt? Should I get ready too?"

"Our family has not received an invitation from the Fei family." Yu Tang said, "It was not to go to the Fei family to push the Yang family's table, but something else."

What is more important than the old lady Fei’s coming to the capital during this time?

The so-called did not get the invitation, but I did not consider whether or not to take her there, right?

Thinking about it this way, there are still pros and cons for her to alienate Yu Tang.

Could it be that she was not allowed to curry favor with Yu Tang?

Gu Xi felt that she had seen through the incident, and she responded with a smile, rather embarrassed, and Yu Tang smiled: "If the Yang family insists, what should I say? I can't say that our house will go there at that time. Say hello to Mrs. Fei?"

Yu Tang felt that Gu Xi had committed the same problems of her predecessor again, forcing her to make a fool of herself.

She was suddenly dissatisfied, thinking that in her previous life, because of her status as a widow and brother-in-law, it was difficult to refute her. Now I am your aunt, what else are you making?

"Then it's up to you to make your own decision." Yu Tang smiled calmly, "If you think this excuse is appropriate, then use this excuse!"

It was me who was ashamed when I saw it, or you, my niece and daughter-in-law acting on behalf of the Pei family.

Gu Xi reacted immediately.

If she said that, others would not say that the Pei family was snobbish, but would only say that she could not handle affairs, and could not even speak.

Gu Xi was a little depressed, but looked up but saw Yu Tang smiling slightly at her.

Did she do it on purpose?

Gu Xi's first thought was to stand up and scold Yu Tang, but the scolding words hit the tip of her tongue, and she swallowed them again.

After all, Yu Tang is her elder, even if she wins the competition, others will accuse her, and when Yu Tang embarrass her, she will feel disrespectful.

This is the natural disadvantage of her relationship with Yu Tang, and there is no way to get rid of the gap.

Gu Xi cursed inwardly. When she saw the people of the Yang family, she had to swallow an excuse for Yu Tang's decision, and checked and filled in the gaps: "It's not that I don't want to visit the Yang family. It's really a sudden delay and there is no way to come."

Pei Tong's grandmother, Mrs. Yang, was so angry that her forehead jumped with blue veins. She sneered and asked Gu Xi: "You are A Tong's daughter-in-law, tell me the truth, is she really having something or is she teasing our Yang family?"

Ask the two wives of the Pei family to come as guests, especially Pei Xuan, who is now the servant of the household department, is in charge of the seal of Yanyin. I don’t know how many people want to take this relationship. Naturally, the Yang family will not let this opportunity go. In addition to her own relatives, she also invited some mistresses of officials and officials who had made friends with her family. Yu Tang would not come if he could not come. What to do with the preparation of the meeting is okay, but how do the mistresses who are in charge explain?

Isn't this rubbing the Yang family's face under the soles of the feet?

This Yu is too much!

Mrs. Yang slapped her hand heavily on the coffee table, and her eyes shot at Gu Xi like an arrow: "It's the same with you, a grown-up, what do you mix with it? It's so naive!"
