Pei Yan didn't think too much, and readily agreed.
Yu Tang heaved a sigh of relief, got up to say goodbye, and was going to say hello to the old man before going back.
Pei Yan looked very busy, and ordered Ah Ming to take Yu Tang to the inner courtyard.
The old man was drinking tea with his second daughter-in-law. Hearing that Yu Tang was here, and it was brought by Ah Ming, he turned his head and smiled at Mrs. Pei, "It just so happened that you saw her too. This child is lively but not fussy. Adam for company."
The second wife has always respected her mother-in-law, so she immediately smiled and answered "yes" when she heard the words, and said softly: "I also heard what Adan said. I said that I met Miss Yu when I came to you to make clothes last time, and Miss Yu picked one for her." The jacket is made of goose blue material, and it sounds like a steady girl."
The old An felt sorry for the younger generation, and quietly stewed egg custard for the younger generation.
Pei Dan in their family is the youngest. She grew up with them in the office. She has a simple mind. Every time she goes out with her sisters, her heart hangs in suspense. She is afraid that she will do something inappropriate. Every time she has to tell her Those maidservants serving beside Pei Dan should pay more attention to Pei Dan.
If everyone around Pei Dan was like Ms. Yu, there would be less chance of Pei Dan getting into trouble.
While the two were talking, Yu Tang walked in led by Aunt Chen.
There is a stranger in the house.
Yu Tang couldn't help but looked at Mrs. Pei Er curiously.
Twenty-seven or eight years old, with a peach face and willow-leaf eyebrows, wearing a white gilt silver ruyi cloud pattern tufted flower hang silk beanie, sitting there dignifiedly and beautifully, smiling before saying a word, gentle in her reservedness, like a It's amiable like a sister next door.
"This is the second wife, Miss Fifth's mother." Lao An introduced the second wife Pei to Yu Tang.
Yu Tang hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
The second wife stretched out her hand to help Fu Yutang, and said with a smile: "I don't know that Ms. Yu came here today, and she didn't bring any greetings..." As she spoke, she thought for a while, and pulled out a white enamel bauhinia flower in her hair The hairpin was handed over to Yu Tang, "It's considered a meeting gift. Please don't dislike it, Miss Yu."
The Bauhinia flower is exquisite in workmanship, even the stamens are inlaid with white crystals the size of sesame seeds, it is not ordinary at first glance.
Yu Tang secretly groaned.
The wives and young ladies of Pei's family are all nice people, but the relationship is too heavy.
I don't know when she will be able to get out of poverty.
"Thank you, Second Wife!" Yu Tang accepted it with a smile, sat down on the embroidered pier pointed by the old An, and took the initiative to talk about the Pei Mansion with a smile: "I heard that the Li family really shipped a few cars back then. When Yinzi came back, he thought that spreading the news would only hurt the reputation of Lin'an City, so he went to see the third master."
After all, Li Yi was an official from Lin'an, and if his reputation got bad, it would also affect the reputation of the people of Lin'an. However, this shouldn't be something Yu Tang worries about, let alone telling Pei Yan.
Lao An didn't like it, but she didn't deny Yu Tang just because of this incident. After all, she didn't have much contact with Yu Tang. Maybe it was just a momentary mistake of the little girl
"What did the third master say?" She said flatly.
Yu Tang wanted to tell Lao An about her doubts, but Lao An was obviously not an ordinary woman and child. If she said it directly, Lao An would definitely think that she was meddling or that she liked to find excuses to get close to the third master. What to ask and what to say. After a long time, letting Lao An judge for herself what kind of person she is, it will make Lao An feel more at ease.
"The third master said he knew." Yu Tang smiled, "I thought I haven't seen you for a few days, so I came here to say hello to you."
The old man smiled, thinking, it really is a little girl's family, no matter how prudent he is, there are some things that are not thoughtful. She looked at Yu Tang's beautiful face but heartless appearance, suddenly felt a little pity, and couldn't help telling Yu Tang to be a man: "If you encounter such a thing in the future, let your father come to find the third master. Let him tell the third master."
Yu Tang felt that her chance had come, and hurriedly said: "I also wanted my father to come and tell the third master. It's just that my father is very busy these days—Didn't Li Duan and Li Ju want to tell them Can I sell part of the Yongye Field where we can grow green rice? My father and Mr. Wu next door to our house bought some together. The land deed has just been obtained. These days my father and Mr. Wu are away from home all day long. The sky is busy with this matter! Don’t disturb the old man, I just came to see the third master.” After she finished speaking, she immediately admitted her mistake obediently, “After the old man said it, I also felt that I acted too recklessly , I will never do this again.”
After speaking, she made a gesture of swearing.
The second wife pursed her lips and smiled.
The old man was stunned, and said: "What did you say? The Li family sold 50 acres of Yongye farmland?! Do you know how much one mu of land costs?"
Yu Tang laughed and said, "It's said to be forty taels of silver per mu of land. Two days ago, my father and Mr. Wu went to sign the contract. I was afraid that the Li family would make things difficult, so I invited the third master to help solve the irrigation problem. Both my father and Master Wu are very grateful to the third master, and they also said that they will go to the temple to burn some incense for the third master in a few days, and pray to the Bodhisattva to bless the third master with good health and a long life!"
At this moment, both the old An and the second wife laughed, and the old An laughed so hard that tears came out. He took the handkerchief from the little maid's hand and wiped the corners of his eyes, and said, "He is young. What kind of incense? Be careful not to ruin his luck."
Yu Tang blushed.
Pei Yan is a person who will be confused by his appearance at first glance, but after a few more contacts, he will be overwhelmed by his aura. Whether it is the former or the latter, it is easy for others to ignore his age.
"Then, tell my dad as soon as I go back." She said, "Let him change something else to thank the third master."
"No need for anything!" Old An still had the smile on his face after laughing happily just now, "He doesn't need anything. Besides, since he is the head of the house, he has to protect his neighbors, so what is there to thank for that?" Yes." As she spoke, she talked about how Mrs. Pei benefited one party back then.
This is probably the most unforgettable thought of the deceased husband in the old An's memory.
Yu Tang listened respectfully, but out of the corner of his eyes, he saw a little servant girl poking her head outside.
Firstly, she didn't want to interrupt Lao An's good memories, and secondly, she was just a guest, so there was no need to make a fuss.
Yu Tang sat there as steady as a mountain.
The little maid was so anxious that she poked her head straight, and was finally discovered by the second wife.
The second wife winked at the maid beside her, and the maid beside her walked out calmly. After a while, he folded back lightly and whispered something in the second wife's ear. The second wife looked at the old An, waited for the old An to finish speaking, took a few sips of tea from the teacup, and then said with a smile: "Mother, Mrs. Shen is here to visit you."
"Mrs. Shen?" Old An asked puzzledly, "Which Mrs. Shen?"
The second wife laughed and said, "It's the wife of Mr. Shen's family, Shen Shanyan, who teaches at our county school."
Old An frowned when he heard this, and said, "What is she doing here? Why didn't she post a message in advance."
She looked like she didn't like to see Mrs. Shen very much.
Yu Tang couldn't help listening.
Mr. Shen has lived in Lin'an all the year round. I don't know what kind of person her wife is? I don't know what is the relationship between Mrs. Shen and Lao An
The second wife smiled good-temperedly: "Didn't my aunt say that there was something for you last time? It was Mrs. Shen who entrusted her to you. I think Mrs. Shen came here to deliver things. She thought you knew, so she didn't send another goodbye." Post it here." Then he said, "Speaking of which, Mrs. Shen is not someone else, so she didn't meet you."
Old An gave a soft snort of disdain, and said, "Let her in!"
The second wife got up to meet her in person.
Yu Tang hurriedly got up to say goodbye.
The old An kept her: "She said a few words and left. I still have something to ask you."
Yu Tang couldn't bring up the matter of leaving anymore, so he got up and helped Lao An refill a cup of tea.
The second wife walked in with the two of them.
Yu Tang looked up and almost threw the teapot out of his hand.
Those flying eyebrows and piercing eyes, is it Gu Xi or who
Her heart was pounding suddenly.
In her previous life, she had never heard of the relationship between Gu Xi and Pei's family, nor had she seen Gu Xi visit Lao An at Pei's house. How could everything have changed when she relived her life
Leaving aside Jiang Ling's changes, even the two brothers and sisters Gu Chang and Gu Xi have come to join in the fun!
Fortunately, the attention of everyone in the room was on Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen who came in with Gu Xi, and no one noticed that something was wrong with Yu Tang. Even Gu Xi just gave Yu Tang a quick glance, a look of astonishment flashed across his face, and then he quickly lowered his eyebrows, and Mrs. Shen, who came with her, bowed her knees to salute the old An.
The old man smiled slightly, and he couldn't see the complaint just now. When the two got up and sat down, he asked Gu Xi while the maids were offering tea: "You are the eldest daughter of the second room of the Gu family, the younger sister of Gu Chaoyang. ?”
It can be seen that he has heard of Gu Xi before.
Gu Xi hurriedly got up to answer, but was stopped by the old An: "Sit down and talk. Your mother's family and I are related by marriage, so you don't have to be formal with me."
Gu Xi smiled and sat down generously.
But based on Yu Tang's understanding of her, she felt that she was secretly relieved.
It's just to visit an elder, she has nothing to be nervous about.
Yu Tang observed Gu Xi calmly.
The old man asked Gu Xi what to say for a long time, Gu Xi answered very decently, but was also very cautious, which made Yu Tang feel that Gu Xi came here with a purpose and a plan.
After the old man finished asking, he introduced Yu Tang to Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi, and said that Yu Tang was one of her juniors with a bit of protection, but did not specifically mention whose family Yu Tang was from.
Both Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen greeted Yu Tang.
Mrs. Shen looked about forty years old, and she was very thin. She wore an ordinary pretty blue beige with floral makeup, two gold hairpins in her hair, and a pair of gold bracelets on her hands. Considering her status, she was very plainly dressed. Either because of her serious expression, or because of the influence of the old An just now, although she treated Yu Tang politely, Yu Tang still felt that her face was a bit harsh, and she was not an easy person to get along with.
Gu Xi surprised her a little.
In the previous life, Gu Xi was famously dignified and polite, but in this life when they first met, Gu Xi asked her with a playful smile: "How old are you this year? Do I want to call you sister or sister?"
The enthusiasm is not at all like her in the previous life.
