It was not Gao Sheng's turn to talk about it, he nodded silently, and asked Gu Chang: "Then where is the Li family?"
Gu Chang said coldly: "We have done so much, if the Li family doesn't know, wouldn't it be Jinyi Night Walk?"
After Gao Sheng promised to serve Gu Chang, he went to inquire about Pei Yan.
By the time Li Duan found out that Li Yi's greed for ink was a rumor from the Peng family, and that Li Yi's imminent transfer to Yunnan and Guizhou was the work of Gu Chang, it was already past the Dragon Boat Festival.
He looked at Chengchen whose roof was painted with blue-green vine leaves, as if all the strength in his body had been taken away, and he couldn't even move his little fingers.
Peng Shiyi felt that he was not obedient enough, so he wanted to intimidate him, so it was rumored that Li Jun came back to transport his father's greedy money; while Gu Xi wanted to retire, but he didn't want others to think it was her fault, He wanted the Li family to take the initiative to withdraw the marriage, so Gu Chang made a move, threatening that if the family did not withdraw the marriage, his father would be transferred to Yungui.
Lin Jue turned around like a trapped beast in the room: "We are under attack now! Ah Duan, you can't be careless! Peng Shiyi has a lot to say, doesn't he just want us to bow our heads? We just bow our heads! He Whatever you say, it's fine. The most urgent thing is not to let him find out that the Gu family is also dealing with us, otherwise we will really become the meat of the family and will be slaughtered by the Peng family at will.
"As for the Gu family, if it really doesn't work, then it's better to withdraw the marriage.
"My aunt tried to find a way to hook up with the Gu family before, and I didn't think it was appropriate. Qi Dafei! And the second room of the Gu family is very poor. I found out clearly that when the old lady of the Gu family separated, the second room of the Gu family was only divided into two. Tens of thousands of taels of silver, but that second master still doesn't understand general affairs, how much dowry can Miss Gu have!
"Besides, the lady of the Gu family, think about it, she lost her father since she was a child, and she can still make her stepmother fearful, so she is not a good friend! After all, the Gu family said that they can read a little But of the four major surnames in the south of the Yangtze River, there are three in Hangzhou. Without them, there are the Gu family, the Shen family, the Lu family, and the Qian family. If it doesn’t work, there are the Zhang family and the Yang family that are inferior!"
Speaking of this, he sat down on the Zen chair next to Li Duan, crossed his legs and continued: "If it were me, I would find someone who is similar to my family, or the girl's brother can read, or there are a lot of people. Dowry with your money. In the end, you live your own life. If you find a wife who will be on your head all day, what's the point of this person's life."
Li Duan smiled wryly.
Why did he think so.
But if he doesn't do this, when he becomes an official, the Li family's background will not be able to help him at all.
Like his father, is the best example.
If it weren't for the fact that the Lin family didn't have any background other than money, would his father still be unable to make an inch of progress in the fourth-rank official rank at this age
It's just that it's not good to say this in front of Lin Jue.
He rubbed his temples with a headache, and said: "If the Gu family's marriage can not be withdrawn, it is better to find a way not to withdraw. I heard from people in the Wu family that Gu Chang's mentor, Sun Gao, may be transferred to the official secretary. "
The Ministry of Officials is in charge of the appointment, removal, rewards and punishments of court officials.
Lin Jue's eyes lit up and said, "Really?"
"Really!" Li Duan said a little tiredly, "There is a child from the Wu family who is in the same discipline as me, and I specially sent someone to say it two days ago."
Lin Jue lowered his eyes and did not speak.
They all knew in their hearts that the son of the Wu family came to spread the word because they didn't know that the Gu family was going to retire and wanted to please Li Duan.
If the news of the two divorced families spread, Li Duan would be laughed at, and the Li family would still be abandoned.
After a while, he said sadly: "Then what are your plans?"
Li Duan said: "my mother doesn't know about it yet. You help me take care of my mother first. I plan to go to Hangzhou in the next two days and meet Miss Gu!"
The person who tied the bell needs to be untied.
He wanted to find out why Miss Gu insisted on retiring.
Is the matter of the Yu family really that important? Besides, he did it for a reason.
Lin Jue laughed, and said: "It's because you read a lot and have a brain. My sister is cute, so it's better to go to Miss Gu's family than to go to Gu Chang."
After all, Li Duan looks talented, which girl doesn't like to be pretty. The matter of retiring was originally led by Gu Xi. If Gu Xi changed her mind and still wanted to marry Li Duan, I believe the Gu family would not be able to stop her.
Seeing that Lin Jue spoke vulgarly, Li Duan frowned.
Lin Jue thought that Li Duan was worrying about going to Gu's house, and said with a smile: "I think it's right for you to do this. Hurry up if you want to go. I don't think there is any need to choose an auspicious day. You will set off for Gu's house tomorrow and find a way See Miss Gu. When you put Miss Gu in your hands, what can the people who watch the Gu family say!"
Although the idea is wretched, it has strong feasibility.
Li Duan secretly made up his mind that he must find a way to meet Gu Xi, but he said: "I have my own opinion."
Lin Jue was afraid that his stubborn temper would come up again, so he persuaded him: "Han Xin was able to endure the pain of his crotch and achieve great things. You should also learn from him!"
It also depends on what to learn!
Li Duan slandered in his heart, thinking that Lin Jue was a dog and couldn't sit at the banquet.
He set a date to go to Hangzhou, while Yu Tang and Yu Yuan finally found the opportunity and took Xiangshi to Suzhou.
Xiangshi has never traveled such a long way in his life.
She felt that she was a lucky woman who had seen the world from Fuyang to Lin'an. She never thought that she would have the opportunity to go to Suzhou.
Sitting in the rented awning boat, she still seemed to be dreaming.
She opened a pack of Wosi Tang, stuffed one for Yu Tang, and said in a low voice, "Try it. When I got married, my father brought it back from the capital."
The small black-topped boat was divided into two parts by a blue coarse cloth curtain. On one side sat Yu Yuan, Xia Pinggui, San Mu and two shop assistants, and on the other side sat Yu Tang, Xiangshi, Shuangtao and Xiangshi's maid Xia. lotus.
The Yu family's shop needed some paint, Yu Yuan suggested to bring Yu Tang and Xiang Shi over there, and let them get in touch with the family business.
Yu Bo refused, thinking that the woman was in the way, and it was Yu Tang who persuaded Yu Wen, and it was Yu Wen who persuaded Yu Bo that Yu Tang and Xiang Shi had this trip to Suzhou.
Yu Tang was so excited that she didn't sleep well for the past two days. She got on the boat and left for less than half an hour. After the initial freshness wore off, she began to doze off.
Yu Tang yawned and put the candy in his mouth. Feeling puzzled, he wanted to sleep more and more. He leaned on Xiangshi's shoulder involuntarily, his eyelids closed together like a thousand pieces of gold, and his mouth Also vaguely: "Sister-in-law, I'll just squint for a while."
Seeing her snuggling on his shoulder like a child, Xiangshi couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled.
She didn't sleep well yesterday, and she was afraid that if she went, it would cause Yu Yuan trouble, and she was afraid that Yu Tang would be dissatisfied if she didn't take good care of Yu Tang—although she had not married into Yu's family for three months, she could see clearly, This sister-in-law of the uncle's family is not only held in the palm of the second room of Yu's family, but also her parents-in-law and husband-in-law love her very much. She didn't want to offend Yu Tang over trivial matters, which would affect her relationship with her in-laws and husband-in-law. Besides, Yu Tang is a nice person, and her husband dotes on her very much, taking her with him wherever he goes. This made Xiangshi, who had envied her stepmother since she was a child, make up her mind to grab her husband's heart no matter what, and be like her husband. Let's live together for the rest of our lives now.
She tolerated Yu Tang even more.
Just seeing Yu Tang falling asleep, she couldn't help wanting to sleep.
"Xia Lian." Xiang Shi whispered to her servant girl, "I'll also squint for a while, remember to wake me up if there's any movement from Eldest Young Master."
Xia Lian grew up with Xiangshi since she was a child, and she knows Xiangshi's thoughts best. In the past, she was worried that Xiangshi would marry into a wealthy family as the main wife, and she would be confiscated as a concubine. Now that Xiangshi is married to Yu's family, she is happier than anyone else—a family like Yu's family will not raise a concubine to eat idle food. Usually, the housemaids around the wife are married either to keep the sensitive guys in the shop, or to marry them. Marry the shopkeeper in the shop. Regardless of whether it is the former or the latter, she feels that if one day comes, she will be truly proud and worthy of being a human being.
Xiangshi wanted to keep Yu Yuan's heart, so she put more effort into it than anyone else.
She nodded immediately, not only carefully took a pillow and put it on her shoulders for Xiangshi to lean on, but also took the bed sheet and handed it to Shuangtao, indicating that Shuangtao would help Xiangshi and Yu Tang to put it on her body.
Shuangtao suddenly felt that all these years of maidservants had been for nothing.
She has never taken care of Yu Tang so carefully and proactively.
Usually, she would do whatever Yu Tang or Chen ordered, and occasionally she would hide in the kitchen to be lazy.
If there is no comparison, there will be no difference. Miss will not feel that she is useless in the future, right
Shuang Tao carefully covered Yu Tang and Xiang Shi with the thin quilt, but felt a little uneasy.
There is a direct waterway from Hangzhou City to Suzhou, which is very convenient, and it goes down the river, but it takes seven or eight hours to get there. So many people will take the night boat, board the boat in the evening, sleep for a night, and arrive the next morning. After finishing my work in Suzhou City, I happened to take the evening boat back to Hangzhou. Not delaying things and saving one night's accommodation costs.
Yu Tang and the others were no exception. They first took a boat to Hangzhou, and then transferred from Hangzhou to Suzhou overnight.
However, they will stay in Suzhou for two nights before going back.
According to Yu Yuan's words, we have to come and see the lacquerware shop in Suzhou.
Su Yanger, Su Yanger, even those nobles in the palace will find ways to get some goods from Suzhou to use. This may be the reason why Hangzhou is closer to Ningbo, but there are more Suzhou people doing sea business.
After sitting on the boat for a day and a night, Yu Tang and Xiang Shi were like boiled beans, limp.
Yu Yuan, a brother who has a wife and forgot about his younger sister, took the lead in helping Xiangshi, looked at Xiangshi's listless face, and said with concern: "Are you okay! I'll hire a sedan chair right now, you and sister Go to the inn to rest first, and I will go out with you after buying some things in Hepinggui."
Xiangshi had nothing to do with this simple-minded husband, he was afraid that he would hurt his heart by throwing his hands away, and he was also afraid that his sister-in-law would feel uncomfortable if he continued to be so tired of her husband, so he winked at Yu Yuan and said, "I don't want to." Tired. Go help Amei. I'm fine!"
Only then did Yu Yuan think of Yu Tang, and said "Oh" disapprovingly, but he did not let go of Xiangshi, but tilted his head to look at Yu Tang who was walking behind Xiangshi, and said, "Are you okay! Do you want me to hold you?"
