Delicate Flower

~: Extra 3

The second wife gave her share as a subsidy to Pei Tong, not to squander the Yang family.

When she heard that, she was trembling with anger, and she sat up straight and said nervously, "What did A Fei say?"

Gu Xi sighed and said, "None is confused. My uncle is naturally unwilling. My mother-in-law also had a big fight with him for this."

She gave Pei Fei an idea, started the spring, and went to the academy outside to study. If someone asked, he would let her second uncle Pei Xuan help keep the silver, and if someone wanted to borrow the silver, she went to Pei Xuan.

Although Pei Fei has been in the capital for several years, there are differences between men and women. In addition, the eldest wife did not like Gu Xi very much. She did not arrange her in front of her two sons. The relationship between Pei Fei and Gu Xi was very distant. This time Gu Xi was uncharacteristically. When he gave him an idea, he suddenly realized some of the reasons why the old lady didn't like Gu Xi when he was surprised.

It should be the same thing as losing your temper at him right now-without listening to her, helping the Yang family wholeheartedly.

But the Yang family had already drifted away from their family because of his eldest brother's failure in the rankings. Why did they even stick to the cold **** of the Yang family with a warm face.

In any case, Pei Fei is a direct descendant of the Pei family anyway. He has not been angry. Although his career is not going well, no one will ridicule him in front of him. He is still proud of his youth, no Too much for the Yang family's style.

He not only listened to Gu Xi's words, but also talked back to his mother, and said to the big wife: "I don't care how you talk about it. No one can move my share. If the mother thinks it's the uncle's house, even more Important, I remember that my mother still has a lot of dowry in her hands. It's better to sell it to help your uncle's house, and it will be regarded as the original owner."

The eldest wife was so angry that she scolded Pei Fei as "selfish".

Pei Fei sneered and walked away.

Gu Xi thought that Pei Fei was quite interesting, so he added another fire and said, "In the past, there was Pei Mansion asylum, and everyone didn't think it. Now we are self-employed, and we have to spend money everywhere, but also high prices. Don't. Not to mention, for this year’s charcoal, the Pei’s family ordered part of it, and the Tao family, Fei’s family, and Qin’s family gave part of it. As for our family, part of it was bought at the market price, and part of it was snapped up. Double, it was my second aunt who said hello to me. The shop didn’t make much money for me. This time, our family’s expenses could not be covered by four thousand taels a year. Now there are only ten thousand yuan left in the public school. It’s more than two ounces of silver, or if you post a little more, we pooled twenty thousand liang to send to my uncle’s house, which can be regarded as a little favor from us.

"It's just that, what should I do with the public school's expenses? I have to ask you to make an idea.

"Or I and my uncle will share it equally? Or each of our families will come up with a fixed number? Let's talk about it, what will happen before? If you come up with a fixed number, then you can spend as much as you can in a year. Ten thousand If it is not enough, reduce the number of servants at home, and if it is not enough, save another province on chewing. It should be able to last for several years."

He also said: "According to me, it is better for each of our families to take a fixed number. Otherwise, we can share as much as we use. If we can't get in and out, we can lose all the money."

This is to cut her expenses!

The big lady will never agree. But the family’s money is in the palm of Gu Xi’s hands. If she wants to move, she has to go through Gu Xi, which will alarm Pei Xuan and Gu Chang. People thought her family was going to lose.

She hated it, but she didn't say anything to Gu Xiduo.

Gu Xi would pretend to be confused as long as she didn't tell her clearly.

The second wife heard that Pei Fei had rejected the eldest wife, and she was relieved and asked with concern: "You really have to spend four thousand taels a year in these years?"

She didn't have so many when she was in charge.

Gu Xi pursed her mouth and smiled, and whispered to the second wife, "How could it be possible! If I don't say that, my mother-in-law still doesn't know what's going on!"

The second wife sighed and slapped her hand and said, "I really embarrass you. When your brother returns to the capital, it will definitely be much better."

Sun Gao's affairs are still a big deal. In order to avoid some rumors in the capital, Gu Chang went to the Baoding prefecture four years ago.

Pei Xuan felt a pity, but he still had Pei Chan and Pei Bo to take care of, so he could only say a few words with his second wife in private.

Gu Xi was very confident.

She knew that the Yin family would help her brother plan it.

I chatted with the second wife a few words about her family’s homework, and a woman in charge came in to show her, and said, "Should we clean up the small yard to the west alone?"

Gu Xi knew that it was the place where she used to live in Pei's house.

She pricked her ears to listen.

The second wife thought for a while, and said, "Let’s pack it up? I don’t know who else will follow the Wei family? If there are too many people, it’s definitely not good for them to live in the small yard, if only the Wei family’s Little master, it’s better to clean up a secluded yard."

The mother-in-law smiled and promised and left.

Gu Xi couldn't help but said, "The young master of Wei's family? Whose family's in-laws are they?"

She deliberately told Pei Fei about the marriage so that the 45,000 taels of silver that Pei Fei left in her hands would not fall into the hands of the eldest wife. She just wanted the Yang family and the eldest wife to see and not eat.

Those familiar with the family are unlikely to marry Pei Fei. Instead, they are like the Yang family married to the second Miss Pei’s family, or the Hu family married to the Fourth Miss Pei’s family.

The second wife laughed and said, "It is a relative of your third aunt's maiden family. The youngest son of their family used to study in the county school, and Mr. Fang taught him. Later, Mr. Fang left, and the child studied with Master Yu for a period of time. Book, Master Yu recommended him to your third uncle again. The kid is going to end this year, so he will come with your third uncle."

Gu Xi was taken aback.

She knew that Yu Tang's family brothers were doing well in business, but she didn't expect to have a student.

If you are rich, you are afraid that someone in your family will be able to become an official.

Gu Xi's smile couldn't help but reluctantly said, "The third uncle is still free to teach people to read! I didn't expect it. Is that young master Wei very smart? Hearing this tone is not very young, have you seen it?"

"I haven't seen it." The second wife smiled, "It should be of good character, or if you take your third uncle as a person, he will take in a student even if he is idle and will not ask for trouble. This kid is not very old. Haven’t got married yet. Your third aunt came to Beijing this time and wanted to tell him a suitable marriage. In addition to asking me, she also asked Mrs. Yin. I thought about it, taking Mrs. Yin’s as a person, I’m afraid that I would have put the capital in the city long ago. 'S girl has been pondering it all over. As soon as your third aunt arrives, there should be good news for her."

Yin Mingyuan has been in the Imperial Academy for several years, as if he had no intention of having an official career, and his body was still as ill and crooked as before, but he had published a lot of books. Some people even said that he might become the most famous Hongru in this dynasty, and those in the Imperial Academy have special respect for him.

Xu gave birth one after another, and is now the mother of four children.

The first three are sons, and the youngest is a daughter. She only fell in the grass last month, but she never gave a full moon ceremony.

Gu Xi also asked why before. The Yin family only said that the weather was too cold and that they would not do the full moon, but only do the Hundred Days Ceremony.

The Xu family didn't want to wait for Yu Tang to come to the capital, right?

This thought flashed through Gu Xi's heart, and was immediately denied by her.

The Yin family won’t really be in charge of the Xu family, how could it be possible to change the joy of her daughter in order to wait for Yu Tang to come to Beijing?

However, the Xu family really knows a lot of people, and if she is the matchmaker, no matter who it is in terms of face, he is really sure about it.

She thought of Pei Fei.

Gu Xi shook her head in her heart.

If it was in the past, she could still beg the second wife to go to the Xu family to ask, but now...people like Yin and Li don’t send her invitations for weddings, she just begged to Xu’s place. Xu Shi would only tactfully refuse.

But she was still curious if Xu could help.

She smiled and said to the second wife: "I don't know what Master Wei is looking for? If Master Wei's marriage can be settled, please tell me, and I will also hear something interesting."

The second wife laughed and said, "The child is a squire at home, in a white body, I was thinking that I must find someone who can help."

As for the financial lining or the official career lining, you have to see Yu Tang to know.

When the two were talking, Pei Dan came over suddenly.

The second wife was so frightened that the tea cup almost fell to the floor, and she asked the maid who came to the gift directly: "How did she greet her and came back? How about my uncle? Did she send her back? Did she take Brother Sen? What did she look like? ?"

Brother Sen is Pei Dan's eldest son.

The maid was a little dazed by the second wife's question, and said: "Auntie is very good, happily, did not bring the young master over, saying that she has something to ask you, so she will leave after she has asked."

"This child!" The second wife was still worried, and she got up to meet her, Pei Dan walked in with the curtain.

"Mum!" she called out joyfully.

Compared with when she was a girl, she has grown a bit taller and fatter, but her complexion has improved and her personality has become more cheerful and lively than before.

Seeing Gu Xi was there, she smiled and shouted "Auntie" at Gu Xi, then took the second wife's arm, and said in a fierce manner: "Don't worry about whether I eat or drink or drink. I will accompany my mother-in-law to see. I went to Mrs. Zhang, and she took Sen Ge'er's house. My carriage walked behind and turned a corner to ask you, is the third aunt coming here? I also brought my two cousins ​​with me? I saw Grandma Zhang’s grandmother at Zhang’s house. She went to see Mrs. Yin the other day. Mrs. Yin said that the third aunt would be coming to the capital in the next few days. She was helping the third aunt’s maiden brothers to see others!"

What a mess this is!

The eldest lady of the Zhang family married the son of Yang Chunhe, a member of the Hanlin Academy. Yang Chunhe respected Yin Mingyuan very much. It is said that this marriage was still the matchmaker of the Xu family.

The second wife frowned and said, "I think you just played crazy with Mrs. Yin, so you won't be fooling around with her in the future." He said, "Your third aunt will indeed be in the capital in the next few days, and your grandmother will be there too. Come here together, and I will go to Tongzhou with your father and A Hong to pick up your grandmother and your third uncle. Then I will tell you two days in advance. You also tell your uncle."
