On Yu Tang’s side, the couple went to see their son, but because of the small house in Tongzhou on Gu Xi’s side, her son and nurse were arranged in the same room with her, and Pei Tong and Pei Hong slept in the same room.

After Gu Xi coaxed her son to fall asleep, she went to the place where Pei Tong lived.

Pei Hong went to talk to Shen Fang and the others.

Even so, Gu Xi was not easy to enter the house, so she stood outside the house and talked to Pei Tong: "Second uncle said that he wants to give you a lecture. Can you set a good time?"

Pei Tong said: "How can it be so fast? Also see if other people have time!"

Gu Xi frowned upon hearing this, and repeatedly told him: "We don't live in Pei's Mansion. You have to find out the news there. Do you want to invite Shen Fang to sit at home?"

Based on the relationship between the Shen family and the Pei family, if Pei Xuan elaborated on the hobbies and habits of each chief examiner, she would definitely not miss Shen Fang.

Pei Tong made up his mind and invited Zhang Hui to sit at home, but he didn’t know if Zhang Hui would agree, so he responded vaguely and asked about Brother Yuan instead. : "I saw his eyes red just now, what's the matter?"

Gu Xi frowned as she listened and said, "It's nothing. He wants to play with Brother Jiang. Brother Jiang wants to take Brother Qian, but he doesn't want to take him. So he cried and coaxed him for a long time."

Pei Tong didn't take it so, and smiled: "This kid is too temperamental. When I was a child, I only liked to play with A Fei. When he becomes an older brother, it will be fine."

Gu Xi listened to her heart beating slightly, and then she couldn't speak the specious complaints.

When they returned to the capital, after having lunch in Pei’s mansion, Mrs. Pei and the second wife did not leave them for dinner at home. They wanted to help Pei Xuan and the second wife to settle Pei Yan and others. "Everyone is very tired, the wind and snow are too heavy, you should also go back early and take a good rest" as an excuse to refuse.

Only after returning home, the old lady who knew why they hadn't returned all night inevitably lost her temper again.

Pei Tong still hung his head, silently saying what his mother said. Pei Fei, who had lived outside for a few days, seemed to have suddenly changed her sex, and she said in a strange way: "You don't want to greet grandmother, we are juniors, and there is nothing to say. But we can't replace it because of brother If you have done your filial piety, you will still be scolded when you come back. Does anyone have any elders doing this? Isn't this the Yang family's style?"

"You wicked thing!" The big lady grabbed the tea cup in her hand and smashed at Pei Fei.

Pei Fei jumped up and avoided, staring at the big lady about to speak, but was quickly pulled aside by Pei Tong's eyes and hands, and whispered, "Don't say a few words."

Pei Fei glanced at Pei Tong, snorted several times, and slammed the door.

The eldest wife scolded with anger.

Pei Tong's forehead was blue.

Gu Xi was anxious that their mother and son would quarrel, but they pretended to stop Pei Tong: "You go out first, mother-in-law, here is me!"

Pei Tong thought that Pei Fei was also a violent temper now, and was afraid that he would run out to cause trouble, so he simply threw it here to Gu Xi and went after Pei Fei.

Pei Fei spent a few days outside, knowing that the life outside was not easy, so he didn't run out so stupidly.

When Pei Tong chased him out, he was sitting in the warm pavilion eating snacks. Pei Tong breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help criticizing him: "My mother is an elder after all, how can you talk to your mother like this?"

Pei Fei sneered and said, "I'm not as foolish as you!"

Pei Tong didn't know what to say for a while.

Pei Fei continued: "Do you know what the Yang family did with my five thousand taels of silver?"

Surely it's not a good thing?

Pei Tong also wants to know.

He subconsciously said: "What did you do?"

Pei Fei said with disdain: "Do you remember that the fourth cousin of Sanjiu's family came out of the pavilion and pressed five thousand taels of silver? That is the five thousand taels that our family took in the past?"

Their cousin was married to the family of Dalisi.

Pei Tong didn't believe it. Although the Yang family is snobbish, it is not the shameless family. He said: "Who did you listen to?"

"Fifth cousin." Pei Fei didn't intend to lie to Pei Tong. Not only that, he also expected Pei Tong to return to the bridge with Yangjiaqiao and the road after he knew it, so he said in great detail, "I was there a few days ago. I met my fifth cousin in the teahouse on East Street, and he told me personally. He also said that my grandfather originally wanted to marry the fourth cousin to our house, but at that time my third uncle fell ill in Lingnan and had to hire a doctor. My grandfather repeatedly weighed it, and told the fourth cousin about the current family, and was afraid that the fourth cousin would be underestimated by others and used our family’s five thousand taels of silver to make money."

The fifth cousin of the Yang family was the concubine of the third uncle. After the third uncle was exiled, he had no one to supervise him, and he quietly mingled with several idle gangs in the capital.

Although being looked down upon by Pei Tong, he is not a whisperer.

Pei Tong had guessed it before, but he didn't want the relationship between his younger brother and the Yang family to become more rigid and embarrass his mother. Now that this is the case, he is not good to persuade his brother to calm down. After all, the five thousand taels of silver belonged to Pei Fei.

"You only need to know it in your heart. Others, you make your own decision." Pei Tong felt sorry for his younger brother when his father left, and touched Pei Fei's head lovingly.

It may be that there are few moments of such tenderness in recent years. Pei Fei said excitedly: "Brother, I don't want to study anymore. My fifth cousin said that I need someone in my family to study. There are no people in our family anymore, even if it's reading, like I’m like this, and I’m going to be named after 40 years old. What is the meaning of life? I want to do business with my friends, and then you will study hard at home. Just like the second uncle and the third uncle, do you think How?"

Pei Tong naturally disagreed, but Pei Fei had become determined, and the two brothers separated in unhappy.

But the next day after Pei Fei got dressed up, he hugged his nephew and went to Pei's house with his brother-in-law and mother.

The old lady didn’t want to see the eldest daughter-in-law at all, but she wanted to give face to the two grandsons. She talked a few words with the eldest wife lukewarm, and then pushed her to the second wife, saying that she was tired and let Yu Tang help. So she went back to the inner room.

Brother Jiang is practicing big calligraphy in the old lady's room. Brother Qian and his brother are lying on a large bookcase, holding a pen and drawing a cat next to them.

The Persian cat raised by the old lady obediently lay down on Xiudun and let everyone look at it.

Seeing that his mother helped her grandmother back, Brother Jiang was about to put a pen to call someone, but Old Man Pei waved his hand and said: "You write your characters, don't worry about your grandmother, grandmother talks to your mother."

Jiang's brother promised and continued to write with his head down.

However, Brother Qian's eyes rolled around, threw down the pen and threw himself into Yu Tang's arms, softly shouting "Mum".

Yu Tang hugged his son and touched the tip of his nose affectionately, and said, "What's the matter?"

Brother Qian glanced at the old lady.

The old lady chuckled, and immediately said: "Don't look at me, you see, I won't help you. Your brother is letting you everywhere, and I can't help you bully your brother." Then she pointed and squatted. The cat on the embroidered pier, "Hurry up and take your cat away, your brother will do your homework."

Brother Jiang half followed Pei Yan. He had a bad nose. In addition to not being able to smell the strong scent, he was also afraid of cats and dogs, so there were no small things in the house. But Brother Qian really likes it. When I went to Kuan Temple that year, I saw that Miss Pei Er had a cat, and the road couldn't move.

Miss Pei Er especially likes Brother Qian, saying that if her cat gives birth to a kitten, she will give one to Brother Qian.

Brother Qian was still young at the time, and I didn't know that both brother and father had bad noses, so he had been hoping that Miss Pei Er's cat would give birth to kittens. When Miss Pei Er really sent the cat over, Yu Tang wanted to give it to the eldest lady of the Zhang family, but was kept by Brother Jiang, and pleaded with Yu Tang: "Let my brother raise it! I'm far from the cat. Just click! He really likes it."

Yu Tang disagreed. Brother Qian cried so loudly. In the end, Pei Yan came forward and sent the cat to Mrs. Pei to raise. When Brother Jiang passed by, he sent the cat to Aunt Chen, Brother Qian. Therefore, I often stayed with Mrs. Pei for a long time. In addition, Mrs. Pei found out that Jiang's brother was still like her and Yu Tang. He was very good at calculating the accounts, and she intended to teach Jiang's arithmetic. In the end, Mrs. Pei was in the house. He taught arithmetic to Brother Jiang, and Brother Qian was playing with the cat outside the house.

Mrs. Pei was happy, but she had to praise her when she met Pei Yan: "I didn't teach you this way when you three brothers were young. If your son can't be admitted to the champion, I'm really sorry for the hard work."

Pei Yan despised this kind of statement, and said with a corner of his mouth: "My son is not a fool, why should he be in the limelight? You will teach you if you want to teach, and you won't teach if you don't want to teach. Whose champion is still going to test arithmetic and fail?"

Mrs. Pei was so angry that she didn't talk to her son for several days, and complained to Yu Tang privately: "How can you stand him? He might as well not speak, and he could kill his popularity as soon as he opened his mouth!"

However, Yu Tang felt that he might be a father, and Pei Yan's temper has become more and more gentle in the past few years. Even if Brother Qian put the soup on his body, he can continue to eat without changing his face.

Of course, these are all interesting things in their lives. Brother Qian looks meek and shy, but he is full of thoughts. Compared with Brother Jiang, it makes people look upright. Brother Qian is more likely to be fooled. His eyes are full of bones. At that time, it was time to think again.

Sure enough, after hearing Yu Tang's question, Brother Qian smiled, leaning into his mother's ear and said: "I want to see the second sister!"

Miss two? !

Yu Tang was surprised.

Old Mrs. Pei laughed and pointed to Brother Qian, "This little clever ghost! Nothing can escape his ears. Ji mentioned it to me, and he remembered it." She said. , Looked back at Yu Tang, "Don’t be surprised. The second aunt’s grandmother came to say goodbye to me that day. I told her that I will come to Beijing at the end of the year. She said that she is also going to come to Beijing to see her illness. No, take advantage of her young age to adopt a child as early as possible. She might arrive earlier than us. Brother Qian must have heard in her ears, thinking that his second sister is also in the capital!"

It’s strange to say that the relationship between Yu Tang and the second lady is never salty, but the second lady fell in love with brother Qian. Not to mention that the two of them raised cats together. She went back to the house to greet the elders, and she must go to see Qian. Brother, if there is anything delicious or fun, people will also give one to Brother Jiang and Brother Qian.

Of course, Jiang's brother was caught in the light of Qian's brother.

Yu Tang listened and said in deep thought, "Should I ask someone to go to Yang's house to inquire about it?"

See if Miss Pei Er has arrived.
