Yu Tang's eyes widened.
Pei Yan's servants dare to question Pei Yan's decision!
Aren't ordinary servants just what the master says
What is the origin of this servant
Pei Yan knew what Yu Tang was thinking at a glance.
He squinted at Yu Tang, and said coldly: "Pei Qi is my baby brother."
"Oh, oh, oh." Yu Tang hurriedly lowered his head to admit his mistake, "I was thinking about it for a while."
Pei Yan said coldly: "I don't think you are thinking about it for a while, but you are thinking about it all the time."
Such a pretty little girl, how come she likes to gossip, she needs to get rid of it.
It's one of the seven ways to use your tongue.
Pei Yan was thinking about how to teach Yu Tang a lesson, when Pei Qi rushed over again and said, "Third Master, Mr. Gu's entourage refused to go back and insisted on seeing you. He also said that their lord has something important to do." I need to see you..."
He stopped here and glanced at Yu Tang.
Yu Tang immediately stood up alertly, and said, "I just brought some tea for you to taste. Since you are busy, I will take my leave first."
Pei Yan ignored Yu Tang, and said to Pei Qi, "What kind of mystery is Gu Chaoyang playing?"
Seeing that he didn't avoid Yu Tang, Pei Qi didn't have any taboos about speaking, and said bluntly, "It's about the Lianghuai salt transport envoy."
Yu Tang was shocked when he heard that.
Gu Chang wanted to see Pei Yan because of this matter, so it can be seen that Pei Yan was either in the salt import business, or was doing something related to selling salt.
It's not appropriate for her to stay here any longer.
"I'm leaving!" She didn't wait for Pei Yan to speak, she knelt towards Pei Yan with the books that Ah Ming had packed for her before, and said, "There are so many books, I have to read them quickly. The one at my house Shanlin still doesn't know what to do? But, I tried to grow some peanuts first. When the peanuts are harvested, I will give you some to try. I don't know if you like peanut crisps or boiled peanuts? It will be the same at that time Do something for you."
Talking is a bit out of order.
Pei Yan found it interesting.
Usually seeing this Miss Yu is very courageous, but now she looks frightened.
I don't know what's going on in her little head.
Don't you think he is smuggling salt
Or feel that you accidentally peeped into his family's business, and feel scared
That being the case, then scare her well.
In case she doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth all day long, she dares to go anywhere, dare to say anything, and even ran to him to confront Li Duan, if he didn't let others know that he was protecting her, She was afraid that she would have been sunk long ago.
Let her learn a lesson and be honest.
He is doing it for her good!
The more Pei Yan thought about it, the more she felt that she was doing the right thing.
With a sullen face, he told Ah Ming: "Send Miss Yu back!"
Yu Tang hurriedly followed Ah Ming out of the farm.
It's just that on the way she couldn't help thinking that Pei Yan had been to Huai'an before, and she said she was doing something for someone, or she went with Zhou Zhuangyuan... Gu Chang went to Huai'an this time on business in Beijing... Pei Yan's His face is so stinky, isn't it possible that these things are related to each other
She carefully recalled those things in her previous life.
It seems that I haven't heard that Pei's family is in the salt import business...
The more Yu Tang thought about it, the more he had a headache. He felt that he was like a blind man touching an elephant. Even if he thought about it, he couldn't understand it. With Pei Yan's ability, if he can't deal with it, it's even more impossible for her to have any countermeasures.
I just hope that he can go smoothly and safely this time, and nothing will happen to him.
She looked at the books in her arms and prayed secretly, thinking that she would read them all as soon as possible when she got home, and she could not disappoint Pei Yan's kindness.
But what she didn't expect was that when she got home, she found that her father and first cousin had returned from outside.
Yu Tang exclaimed, put the book aside, hugged his father's arm, and said happily: "Father, brother, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell the family in advance, so we can go pick you up?" .”
In just a few days, Yu Wen looked a little tanned than when he left home, but he was very energetic, his eyes were as bright as morning stars.
He chuckled twice, patted his daughter's head, and said, "I brought you a box of this year's new pearls from Suzhou. When your mother is free, you go to Jinlou to make some jewelry." The last sentence was addressed to Mrs. Chen.
Chen Shijiao said: "It's fine for people to come back, what else do they bring? This year's new beads are very expensive, right? You don't have to buy this year's new beads, it's the same for previous years."
Yu Yuan smiled and said, "Pearls turn yellow when they grow old, which means that pearls are worthless after a long time. Since you want to buy them, you must buy new ones this year."
Chen couldn't laugh or cry when she heard this, and made a rare joke with Yu Yuan: "Are you saying that your mother and aunt are old?"
Yu Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then blushed, touched the back of his head embarrassingly and said, "No, no. Auntie, don't blame me for not being able to speak..."
Chen interrupted him with a smile, and said: "Aren't I joking with you? It's just that you are married, so you should be careful when you say such things in the future, so as not to make your nephew and daughter-in-law feel uncomfortable."
Yu Yuan quickly bowed his head in response to "Yes".
Mrs. Chen said to Yu Tang: "It's such a hot day, stop clinging to your father. Your father and brother entered the door before you. If you have anything to say, let them wash and change first."
Yu Tang giggled, said "Thanks for your hard work" to his father and eldest cousin, and let go of his arms.
Yu Wen said to Yu Yuan: "You should go back and rest first! Come over to have dinner with your father, your mother, and your wife in the evening. There are some things that I have to talk to your father about."
Yu Yuan saluted respectfully, greeted Mrs. Chen and Yu Tang, and took Miki back to his home.
Mrs. Chen went to help Yu Wen change his clothes, and Yu Tang helped to set the table himself, and when Yu Wen came out after changing into clean clothes, he offered to serve his father a bowl of mushroom soup and greeted him for dinner.
Yu Wen breathed a sigh of relief, had a meal accompanied by his wife and daughter, moved to sit under the grape trellis in the backyard, and Shuangtao served tea, then he smiled and asked Yu Tang: "Listen to what your mother said about you I went to Pei's house early in the morning, but what's the matter?"
Yu Tang went to hug the book that Pei Yan lent her, and said a little showily: "Look! The third master lent it to me!" Then she talked about the scene of going to Pei's house: "You don't know, I I actually saw pears at Pei’s house! It was sent by their farm! It’s on the market at this time! The third master also said that if they are delicious, they will be sold to those merchants... The third master can farm... No wonder everyone To read... and write a book on how to farm..."
This time, even Mrs. Chen was startled.
Flipping through the book Yu Tang borrowed, she said in surprise: "The book also teaches how to farm? This is the first time I've heard of it in my life?"
Yu Wen couldn't wait to start flipping through the book.
Yu Tang watched, pursed his lips and smiled.
She said to her father: "The third master said, if I don't understand, let me ask you!"
Yu Wen, who buried his head in the pages of the book, froze, laughed twice, and said, "I'll take a look first, I'll take a look first."
Yu Tang blinked his eyes.
The situation seems to be different from what she thought!
Shouldn't her father know how to farm after reading the book? No matter how you listen to this tone, you don't seem to be sure! Is it because Pei Yan is too smart, or is it that her father... doesn't understand at all
Yu Tang was thinking about how to ask her father tactfully, but she heard her uncle Yu Bo's voice: "Hui Li, A Yuan said you have something important to say to me?"
Yu Tang's family of three hurriedly stood up.
"Brother is here!" Yu Wen greeted Yu Bo, while Yu Tang and Chen Shi greeted Yu Yuan, Wang Shi, and Xiang Shi who came with Yu Bo.
Mrs. Chen and Shuangtao hastily moved the stools over.
The group sat down in groups of senior and younger, and Shuangtao and Mrs. Chen changed refreshments and served melons and fruits.
Only then did Yu Wen look at Yu Yuan proudly, and said to Yu Bo: "Brother, let A Yuan tell you! This matter is also due to A Yuan."
It seems that father and eldest cousin went to Suzhou Mansion to gain a lot.
Before my father didn't mention it, he must have wanted to flatter his eldest cousin in front of everyone.
Yu Tang pondered in his heart, but his eyes fell on Yu Yuan along with everyone else.
It is rare for Yu Yuan to be affirmed by his elders like this.
His face was as red as blood, but his expression was very excited. He first said modestly, "It was all closed with the help of my uncle", and then briefly explained the matter of him and Yu Tang going to Suzhou Mansion, and then said: "We After discussing with my uncle when I came back, my uncle was a little worried, so he made a special trip with me to Suzhou Mansion to meet Mr. Jiang. Mr. Jiang was young and promising, courageous and resourceful, calm but flexible, and he hit it off with my uncle at first sight. "The more he said, the more excited he became, "But it was the first time that my uncle had dealt with him. At that time, he didn't make a single promise to Mr. Jiang, so he turned around and rushed to Ningbo Mansion with me overnight!"
"Ah!" Everyone was surprised.
Seeing Yu Wen, he smiled triumphantly, with a calm look on his brows, and took a sip from the teacup at hand.
Yu Yuan grinned silently, and continued: "Uncle took me to not only find out the owner of the Wang family, but also went to see the Wang family's ship, and inquired about the business at sea in the past few years. Feeling that what Master Jiang said was true, we rushed back to Suzhou Mansion overnight, and then negotiated with Master Jiang on the shareholding contract."
In other words, their family decided to take a stake in Jiang Chao's maritime business.
Yu Tang couldn't help but said: "Then, how much money will our family pay?"
Yu Wen raised his chin, and said quite proudly: "Six thousand taels!"
Another two thousand taels were added.
Yu Tang lost his voice: "So many?"
Yu Bo asked, "Where did our family get so much money?"
Wang Shi and Chen Shi looked at each other in blank dismay.
Xiang Shi probably knew something, he lowered his head, but kept looking at Yu Yuan from the corner of his eyes.
For a while, the hall was silent.
Yu Wen opened the folding fan with a "swish", and said confidently: "Don't worry, I have personally seen this transaction, and it is absolutely sure, and there will be no mistakes. As for the money at home," he glanced at Yu Bo, "I got a windfall recently, so I will take the money from my windfall, and you don't need to pay it. But if I make money, we will share it equally between the two families, half of it!"
