Pei Hong looked like a new toy, and was very interested. First, he followed Pei Yan to the shop in the capital, and then followed him to visit several chambers of commerce. People who do business are usually kind and don't want to sin against people. Pei Hong thinks it's quite interesting to welcome in and out.

Pei Yan simply asked him to follow Tong Er's shopkeeper to Baoding Mansion to check the accounts, and also asked Pei Hong: "Check the accounts yourself, Tong Er's shopkeeper will only be there to assist."

The shopkeeper Tong Da is now only in charge of the Lin'an shop. The shopkeeper Tong Er took over the errands of his brother, and the shopkeeper Xiao Tong took over the errands of Tong Er. The Buddhist incense of Kuan Temple has been sorted out long ago. The second Miss Pei’s family is now taken over by the presiding officer of Kuan Temple. And because the shopkeeper Xiao Tong has been carrying it hand in hand over the past few years, the director of Kuan Temple does not need to plan to settle accounts now. The Buddhist incense business in the temple is getting better and better. Later, I learned that Yu Tang would make silk flowers, but I didn’t know if it was true. Optimistic about this business or flattering Yu Tang, he sent a few laymen to learn the craft of making silk flowers with Yu Tang for a while, and began to try to sell flowers for the first two years. It is said that the latecomers in the business are not inferior to the Buddha's incense.

As for the Tong family, it has always been the confidant of the Pei family. Pei Hong is so good that he is not a master Shangshu, and has to assist in the reconciliation. Even if Pei Yan didn’t tell him anything, based on his understanding of the Pei family, he also vaguely felt that Pei Eight or nine of the banquets are to train Pei Hong to be the son of the ancestor.

When Pei Tong of the clan house paid the sect, Pei Xuan was the long house. If Pei Hong were to be the clan's son, this would be considered as correcting chaos.

No matter what others think, Tong Er's shopkeeper admires Pei Yan's mind very much, and is also very grateful that Pei Yan has given him this opportunity to accompany Pei Hong and have the opportunity to give Pei Hong some guidance.

He conscientiously accompanied Pei Hong to Baoding.

Turning his head, Pei Xuan finally took a day’s time to call Pei Tong, Wei Xiaochuan, and Shen Fang to the study, ready to have a good chat with them about major events, adults’ understanding of the "Four Books and Five Classics", When he liked the article, Pei Tong did not see Pei Hong.

Pei Hong is still just a small talent. Although he doesn't use what Pei Xuan said for a while, it is also an opportunity to make friends with them. Pei Tong can't help but worry about him and asks the young man who served them tea and water. : "Why don't you see the Third Young Master?"

In the clan house, Pei Hong ranked third.

The young man smiled and said, "The Third Young Master is out."

No matter how much, I can't ask.

Pei Tong frowned, feeling that Pei Hong didn't cherish the opportunity too much.

Shen Fang felt that Pei Tong didn't know what to say.

Let’s not say that Pei Xuan is Pei Hong’s father, but based on Pei Xuan’s current official position, if Pei Hong is in official career, he will have to be released. Moreover, even if he is released, it is estimated that he will bear the name of an old patron’s son. Well done is what should be done, bad done is incompetence. If it were him, he would learn from Zhou Zijin, indulge in landscape, indulge in Muye, and write a book and say, I don't know how good it is.

Shen Fang sighed secretly.

Fu Xiaowan wondered whether to persuade Pei Tong to say a few words, who knew that Wei Xiaochuan and Zhang Hui came in together.

Shen Fang couldn't help but smiled and said, "What are you doing here? I disappeared early in the morning!"

Wei Xiaochuan's complexion was flushed immediately, and after a long time, everyone did not hear clearly what he said.

Zhang Hui, who was next to him, looked funny, and said: "I accompanied him to make clothes-Mrs. Wei specially entrusted me to make some new clothes for him when he came to the capital, and wear them when he went to the examination room. III The wife invited the tailor over. Who knows that the tailor came so early."

Pei Tong felt that what Zhang Hui was talking about was an excuse, but Zhang Hui had turned aside and asked Shen Fang: "Is Lord Pei yet here? We were afraid of being late before, so we rushed out of sweat."

"It's okay!" Shen Fang also felt that Zhang Huiyan was insincere, but since they didn't want to say it, he didn't ask too much.

The main reason is that he is not familiar with Wei Xiaochuan.

Wei Xiaochuan passed the exam at a young age, and then came to Qiantang Academy to study and became a classmate with him. But Wei Xiaochuan studied very hard and didn't squint, so that they had been classmates for two years, and Wei Xiaochuan didn't know him.

Just when Shen Fang decided to make good friends with Wei Xiaochuan, Wei Xiaochuan was admitted to Juren and went back to his hometown Lin'an to study.

Shen Fang thought that he was a farmer, thought he was short-sighted by the elders in the family, and shouted a pity. He even visited his home and wanted to persuade him to go back to Qiantang Academy to study. Who knew that when he arrived in Lin'an, it turned out that it was Pei Yan who had been guiding his studies and returning to Lin'an to study. It was also because Yu Tang was pregnant and Pei Yan was unwilling to go out, so he called Wei Xiaochuan back.

He knew Pei Yan's ability.

Shen Fang sank back to Hangzhou.

Goodbye Wei Xiaochuan, on the boat of Pei's family.

He thought that Wei Xiaochuan definitely didn't remember him. He didn't expect Wei Xiaochuan not only to remember him, but also that he especially liked to eat braised pork when he was in the academy. There must be a big bowl every day. Wei Xiaochuan also curiously asked why he was not fat?

For this reason, Fu Xiaowan gave him a big smile.

Just a few people chatted.

Wei Xiaochuan's complexion gradually returned to normal.

He and Zhang Hui were late because they ran into Mrs. Yin and Miss Zhang who were guests.

Yu Tang deliberately told him about a marriage that would help him in his official career. When he was on the boat, he asked him what he wanted. He was very embarrassed and didn't say a word for a long time. It happened that Mrs. Yin didn't know why she suddenly pulled him to speak without speaking, and she looked at him up and down for a long time.

He wondered if Sister Yu and Mrs. Yin had said something, and Mrs. Yin wanted to match him up.

Wei Xiaochuan was sitting on pins and needles, took Zhang Hui and ran away.

Zhang Hui and Yu Tang’s friendship is different. It has long been known that Mrs. Wei entrusted Wei Xiaochuan’s marriage to Yu Tang. Seeing Mrs. Yin’s situation, he also suspected that Mrs. Yin was going to match Wei Xiaochuan, which helped him stop him. .

When Wei Xiaochuan calmed down, Pei Xuan also came over.

Behind him were a few face-to-face scholars, the older one was about the same age as Zhang Hui, and the younger one was about the same age as Wei Xiaochuan.

Pei Xuan pointed to Zhang Hui and others: "This is my hometown." He also pointed to the few people who followed: "Friends, colleagues' brothers, nephews, I heard that I have an appointment with you to chat, so I want to come over and listen."

Everyone hurriedly got up to meet each other.

Pei Xuan asked Xiao Si to close the door and began to tell them some of the emperor's views on government affairs in the past few years.

Everyone listened with ears upright, and there was no sound in the study.

Mrs. Pei's side, pulling Aunt Chen to check her own money. The more she counts, the tighter her brows frown.

Aunt Chen knows her thoughts best, and she hurries to comfort her elderly: "Don’t you often say that your children and grandchildren have their own fortunes? Don’t worry too much about the future of the Fourth Young Master and the Five Young Masters. The Second Master is a kindhearted person and will not care about it. The two young masters."

"Does that have the ability to compare to my own father?" Mrs. Pei retorted displeasedly and complained, "I blame the old man. If he hadn't forgotten him, could the boss do such a thing? The third child could bury the town. Wild?"

Aunt Chen didn't dare to speak up.

If she said that when she came to Beijing last time, Mrs. Pei still loved Pei Tong and Pei Fei's two grandchildren very much. When she knew what Pei Tong had done, she would only leave a little bit of face for these two grandsons. Up.

Mrs. Pei wondered whether to visit the Qian's old mansion in the capital.

Many of the Qian family are officials in the capital.

But across the head of the room, she was such an old person again, and she didn't go diligently.

But the old saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as neighbors, this person, if you move around, you will kiss.

Mrs. Pei carefully pondered these things in her heart, and the lady on duty at the Chuihuamen came to report that it was Mrs. Song's fourth wife who sent someone to send her a greeting card, and wanted to come to her to greet her.

The Song family has become more and more disrespectful in recent years.

The marriages of the children only looked at the door and did not look at the character. The business in Suzhou was almost robbed by the Jiang family. This time in Beijing, Mrs. Pei knew that Mrs. Song was also in the capital, but did not ask her to come. Have a meal.

Mrs. Pei asked Aunt Chen: "Are there any major events in the Song family recently?"

Aunt Chen also followed Mrs. Pei to the world when she was young. Since she came to the capital, she would definitely inquire about what she should know.

She said: "There hasn't been any major incident in the Song family these days. However, something has happened to the Peng family. The seventh master of the Peng family, I heard that he will be demoted. She has always been close to the Peng family."

If you just visit the elders simply, it's nothing more than a little relief, and a help that can help. But if it’s for someone else’s family, you should also know what it is in advance, so that you don’t have to say it suddenly and don’t know what to do.

Mrs. Pei held the post in her hand and looked at it for a while, and then looked at it for a while. Then she said: "Anyway, it's a relative, come if you want! I'm a widow old lady, my son and daughter-in-law are watching it right, wherever it is. I spoke and made up my mind."

This is what it means to not help at all.

Aunt Chen knows, but she still can’t help reminding Mrs. Pei: “Speaking of it, it’s no wonder that the third master doesn’t like the Peng family. Although it was that Peng Xi was narrow-minded and self-asserted, if it wasn’t for the Peng family , Does he dare to be so bold? It just opened an ancestral hall to solve it privately, and he also showed his merits in front of the third master, for fear that others would not know it, so that others would say that their family is fair and selfless, and the family style is upright."

Mrs. Pei waved her hand and motioned to her not to say any more.

Fearing that Yu Tang's reputation would be damaged, Peng Xi's assassination of Yu Tang, whether it was the Pei family or the Peng family, did not let others know. But the Peng family also took advantage of this, making people feel that the Peng family gave Pei family a lot of face, and even if Pei Yan's heart was full, he could only swallow this breath temporarily.

But as Aunt Chen said, Pei Yan is not the kind of person who can swallow his anger.

I'm afraid that the Peng family can't get rid of Pei Yan.

Otherwise, Pei Yan wouldn't have to come to the capital to take this trip.

The Fourth Mrs. Song came to see her, of course there are relatives here, and more, I am afraid I still want to make a point for the Peng family.

But who is her temperament like?

Of course she is like her!

Not to mention that Xia Guang can't bear this tone, she can't bear it either.

However, since Mrs. Song Si is willing to come, let her come.

What happened back then, she has never had a chance to spit out this grievance. If Mrs. Song Si dared to be the middleman, then don't blame her for being rude.
