Delicate Flower

Chapter 386: qualifications

Mrs. Song's smile was a little more proud, and said: "Yes! The wedding date has not been set, the Wu family sent me a letter first, and wanted me to come over to help their family. I wondered how I would pay for it in this life. I've never been to the capital, so I came here cheeky." After she finished speaking, she picked a piece of melon from the plate at hand and skewed it into her mouth, "This melon is delicious. Sweeter than ours."

Yu Tang spoke to her perfunctorily, leaving Mrs. Song Si to have dinner at home.

Mrs. Song Si was not polite, and happily agreed.

Yu Tang had to ask his second wife to accompany him.

As soon as Mrs. Song saw the second wife, she happily took her hand and asked concerned: "I heard that Miss Fifth is going to marry Qin's house? How is it? Is the dowry ready? Is the date of marriage set? Yes. Is there no place where I can help?" Then he sighed, "I really didn't expect that when Master Qin was appointed as the chief envoy of Zhejiang, I told Mrs. Qin privately that both his character and knowledge are First-class, Mrs. Qin is also generous and gentle, and I don’t know who has such a blessing to marry the Qin’s family as a grandma. I didn’t expect that the Qin’s marriage partner was actually the fifth young lady. You, a son-in-law, can choose. that's nice!"

This is what the second wife likes the most.

She immediately talked to Mrs. Song about Pei Dan's marriage.

Miss Song Qi quietly walked to Yu Tang's side and smiled softly and said to her: "Mrs. Third, if you leave Zhaoming Temple, you haven't seen it again. Are you okay?"

She looked shy, like a frightened little beast, arousing affection.

She must be very clear about her purpose in coming to the capital. As for what kind of husband-in-law she can marry, it is not based on talents or ability but on whether it is beneficial to the Song family. She is terrified!

Yu Tang sighed in his heart, unavoidably sympathizing with Miss Song Qi. She smiled gently: "It's been a long time since I saw you! Miss Six is ​​okay?"

The marriage of the young ladies and Miss Wu has been decided. No matter what, Peng Jiuye’s son is about the same age as Miss Wu. Gu Xi has already been out of the cabinet, and Pei Tong is barely considered a golden turtle son-in-law in the eyes of many people. There is no good future.

Ms. Song Qi's expression was dim and said: "Sixth sister is also out of the cabinet. She is married to Shuzhong. That family is in the medicine business. Our family is in the drug store in Suzhou. Something went wrong the other day. I'm very busy."

In other words, Miss Song Liu also married because of family interests.

Yu Tang can only comfort her: "That's good too. Anyway, I have done business together, so I know the basics."

Ms. Song Qi smiled bitterly and said in a low voice, "Because of the medicinal material shop, our family and the sixth sister-in-law’s house are actually quite unpleasant. Six sisters marrying their house is regarded as compensating the family—the family is no longer there. Doing business in Jiangsu and Zhejiang has changed to do business with people in Jiangxi and Lianghu."

Could it be that the Song family is sorry for others?

Yu Tang didn’t ask too much for a while, but it was Miss Song Qi. If she felt a lot of words, she finally had a chance to talk in her heart. Some recklessly continued in a low voice: "Six brother-in-law married a wife before. She gave birth to three sons and one daughter. Six sisters did not want to marry, but family members said that Six sisters had a bad temper and stayed behind to be enemies. It's better to marry like this..."

When she said this, her eyes became moist, and she looked straight at Yu Tang, as if it had something to do with Yu Tang.

Yu Tang was stunned and wanted to ask her what she meant, but suddenly the second wife took her arms, and the second wife’s smiling voice came from her ear: “It’s mainly because we are quite far away from Jiang’s house. The eldest son and them just now After moving away, there are still some things left in the yard here and not cleaned up. If there is no such thing as the division, we will send someone to tell him. Now that the division is divided, we will go and tell them again, I know I think we want to make a yard for you. I don’t know. I thought we had found an excuse to urge them to move out quickly. It’s really a dilemma!"

"Look at what you said!" Mrs. Song said with a smile, and there was no grudge in her expression. "We are the guests of the Martial Family. The Martial Family is famous among the families in the south of the Yangtze River. We are definitely going to occupy their home. It's cheap!"

Yu Tang then understood that the fourth wife of Song said to her second wife that she wanted to live in Pei's house during her stay in Beijing, but she was rejected by the second wife who was also euphemistic.

She felt that the second wife had done too right.

Listening to Pei Yan's tone, the Pei family and the Song family will turn their faces sooner or later. In that case, they don't need to go too close, otherwise they won't help or not help.

The second wife didn't know these things, so she rejected Mrs. Song Si purely because she felt that Mrs. Song Si was eating the bowl and looking at the pot.

Sending away Mrs. Song Si and Ms. Song Qi, she said to Yu Tang, "When talking about the martial arts family, you should go to the martial arts family. If you take advantage of our family, don't say a word, what's the matter!"

Yu Tang extended her thumbs to her and said: "The second wife is still thoughtful. I didn't expect them to make this idea. However, if it was me, I wouldn't like them living in our house."

The second wife nodded repeatedly.

After Yu Tang and her broke up at the crossroads, they did not go back to the house where they lived, but went to Pei Yan's study.

He is discussing Yan Yin with Shu Qing.

The grain harvest at the farm in Jiangxi should be good this year. They are going to work with the Yin family to transport grain to Jiubian and change the salt.

Originally, this plan was good, but it was a pity that Pei Xuan became the servant of the household department. No matter what, the Pei family should avoid Pei Xuan's official office. The Pei family's salty business was not easy to operate.

Shu Qing suggested that they bring the grain directly back to Jiangsu and Zhejiang for sale.

In Jiangsu and Zhejiang, food prices have always been relatively high.

But certainly not doing salt to make business more profitable.

Pei Yan hesitated and saw Yu Tang, so he stopped the topic and decided to talk to Shu Qing about it tomorrow.

Shu Qing smiled and said hello to Yu Tang and left.

Yu Tang began to nod with Shu Qing reservedly. As soon as Shu Qing's figure left the study, she immediately ran to Pei Yan's side, pulled Pei Yan's sleeves, and said eagerly: "Xiao Guang, I'll tell you Ms. Wu is going to marry the Peng family, and the two of them have kept it tight. If Mrs. Song Si hadn’t come as a guest today, I don’t know yet. Do you know about it?"

Pei Yan was obviously also surprised, frowning and said: "I knew the Wu family was looking for a relative, but I didn't expect the Peng family to agree. Mrs. Song Si has already arrived in the capital, so this matter should have been planned for a long time."

Yu Tang's heart suddenly lifted, and said: "Have you not heard the wind before?"

Pei Yan said: "I heard that the Wu family intends to marry the Li family, but the Li family does not have children of the right age."

So I chose the Peng family.

Yu Tang hesitated and said: "That's not right! It should be someone else's family choosing the martial family, not the martial family's choosing someone else's house, right?"

Why did the Peng family agree to marry a girl from the Wu family?

Yu Tang guessed: "Is it because the martial arts dowry is rich."

Pei Yan looked at her timid little appearance, playful, could not help scraping Yu Tang's nose, and said: "It's not entirely a dowry matter. Mostly there is still some cooperation."

Yu Tang had something in his heart, and he didn't care about arguing with Pei Yan, and said anxiously: "The two marriages must have some cooperation. I'm afraid it will have any impact on our family. Jiang Daren and you are at odds, and now the Wu family is with the Peng family. Marriage."

She still remembers that they used "Songxi Fishing Hidden Picture" to intercept Pengjiacai Road.

Pei Yan didn't care, and smiled: "This is not better! Like now, we and Peng Jia clearly have a gap, and we have to pretend to be intimate, which is quite annoying."

This is true.

Yu Tang reminded Pei Yan: "Be careful! I always feel bad."

"Don't worry!" Pei Yan smiled and hugged Yu Tang, "I have a family and a room now, I don't dare to mess around. Otherwise, what can you do!"

Yu Tang's face was hot, and his heart was sweet. He felt that everything would ruin the atmosphere. Besides being agitated, his whole body's strength didn't know where to go.

She hugged Pei Yan's waist vigorously...

Within two days, the marriage of Peng and Wu spread in the capital.

When Yu Tang went to the Yin family to attend the 100-day banquet of Xu Xuan's eldest son, many people asked her to ask, "Is it the girl from the martial family who married to the Jiang family?"

"Yes!" Yu Tang agreed with a smile.

Most of the people I know are disapproving, and some are quite contemptuous: "It's not easy to marry a daughter into their family."

It can be seen that the Wu family did not get any good reputation from it.

It was Xu Xuan, who was forced to rest at home by many aunts and grandmothers of the Yin family, talked to Yu Tang privately about this: “I heard that Miss Wu married one hundred thousand taels of silver this time. Peng Jiuye is a gamer and often stretched out. Only he will agree to this marriage."

Isn't it because the Peng family has the rising star of Peng Yu?

Xu Xuan sneered: "The Peng family would rather marry Miss Sun rather than marry Miss Wu. It's too obvious and it's easy to get in the way."

Yu Tang didn't know what happened in this, so he was naturally not good at commenting casually. He changed the subject and talked about Mrs. Song Si: "Did you post for her?"

Xu Xuan didn’t remember, so she called the maid in charge to ask, and then said to Yu Tang: “I wrote your invitation with Miss Zhang and Dan. Others have to ask.” Qidao, "What do you ask this for?"

Since the Song family intends to marry Miss Song Qi to someone who is helpful to the Song family, they will definitely find a way to come in on such occasions.

Yu Tang just asked casually.

She felt that as a woman in the house, she was a bit dereliction of duty for failing to inquire about the marriage between Wu and Peng.

She also paid more attention to the movements of the Song family.

"I just didn't see her, just ask." Yu Tang was embarrassed to talk to Xu Xuan about his negligence, and answered her vaguely.

Fortunately, Xu Xuan didn't ask much.

After a while, the mother in charge came over and said nervously, "Before the grandma did not specifically confess, we did not post to them." After that, she defended herself, "Even though the Song family is a Jiangnan family, the highest is only four. The Song family’s house in the capital is also sold. The fourth wife of Song lives in the Wu family now, and we have not sent any posts to the Wu family.”

The implication is that the Song family is not yet qualified to participate in the hundred-day banquet of their eldest master.
