Gu Xi thought of the investigation he had asked someone to do on Yu Tang.
A native of Lin'an, the daughter of a scholar's family, there is only one shop and one hundred acres of water in the family, and three or four servants.
She used to think that the Yu family was low-key and introverted and didn't want to cause trouble, but now it seems that they are really poor.
Gu Xi's fair and slender fingers gently caressed the bright and dust-free black lacquered tabletop, she smiled silently, then turned around, and said to Yu Tang in a warm voice: "Miss Yu, then I'll go first. Mrs. Shen is better, I will visit again."
Yu Tang smiled and nodded, without even asking how Mrs. Shen was doing, she just watched Shuangtao send Gu Xi's master and servant out.
Then Yu Tang heard the fifth young lady next to her let out an almost inaudible sigh.
Was Fifth Miss nervous when facing Gu Xi
Yu Tang looked at Miss Fifth in puzzlement.
Fifth Miss's face flushed immediately, and she murmured: "Miss Gu, you are very powerful, you can do everything, I am timid..."
Does it make her feel stressed
Yu Tang resisted to laugh out loud.
Gu Xi in her previous life was also like this, as long as she appeared, she would become the focus of everyone's attention. Even if she restrained herself in front of the Pei family in this life, the things engraved in her bones could not be changed so easily. If she really came here for something, she probably never dreamed that those things she was proud of would become Is it an obstacle for her to integrate into the Pei family
Yu Tang just wanted to raise his head and laugh.
She reassured Miss Fifth with a bright mood: "It's okay, it's okay. After all, there are only a few people as powerful as Miss Gu. We are all ordinary people, just look at it from a distance."
Fifth Miss nodded again and again, looked at Yu Tang closer, and said: "Miss Gu plays well with Second Sister and Fourth Sister, and Third Sister likes to play with me."
Yu Tang thought of the arrogant Second Miss and the agile-eyed Fourth Miss.
That is to say, at present, Gu Xi has won over the second and fourth misses.
She was a little surprised.
She thought that the self-disciplined and polite third lady would like Gu Xi more, and the arrogant second lady would compete with Gu Xi.
It can be seen that she sometimes misses it.
Yu Tang pursed her lips and smiled, and went back to the inner room. Seeing that the maids had already made the beds, she was also a little tired, so she asked Miss Fifth, "Would you like to rest with me? Ann greets you."
Fifth Miss thought about it, and readily agreed.
The maid who served Miss Fifth came in to remove makeup and smoke the quilt for Miss Fifth.
After a busy conversation, the two lay down side by side.
The little maids put down the gauze curtains.
Miss Wu saw that the top of the gauze tent was the ordinary white silver bar tent that was hung here before, so she couldn't help but said, "Sister Yu, what color do you like? I'll ask Ah Shan to bring you one. I have a lot of gauze tents at my place." , Flower tent, I will give you one."
"No need." Yu Tang understood what she meant.
In the previous life, when the young lady of the Lin family came to visit the Li family, not to mention the tents and bedding, she would only use the toilet she brought.
She doesn't care so much.
Of course, it's also because she can't be particular about it.
And no matter in her previous life or in this life, she didn't have the habit of slapping her swollen face to pretend to be fat.
"I'm only staying here for a few days, and it's too much trouble to exchange it." She smiled and turned sideways, looking at Miss Fifth, "Besides, I think even if it's something I brought from home, It's similar to what you use to decorate the guest room, so don't bother our servants."
Seeing her sincerity, Fifth Miss laughed softly, and said, "Sister Yu, shall I give you a stove? It was sent by my aunt from Jinling, and she said it was the latest look in Jinling. It looks good."
Yu Tang remembered that the brother of the second wife's natal family seemed to be an official in Jinling.
Seeing that Miss Fifth spoke sincerely, it was not easy to spoil the little girl's interest, so she quickly thanked her with a smile: "That's great! It's good to say that your house is burning earth dragons. When I was at home, I didn't even practice big characters. When you stretch out your hand, it freezes for a while."
Miss Wu obviously never lived in a house without earth dragons, so she didn't doubt it at all, and she was secretly glad that she gave the right things.
The two talked for a long time while laughing in low voices, and gradually fell asleep, gradually falling asleep.
When the two of them were woken up, it was almost time for Shenzheng. Fifth Miss hurriedly sat up and said anxiously: "It's over, it's over, it's late, it's late!"
Ashan is a fifteen or six-year-old girl, and it is said that she has served Miss Fifth since she was born. After all, she is older than Miss Fifth, she smiled calmly: "Miss Fifth, don't worry, this is the right time to get up and get dressed."
Fifth Miss glanced to the side, and seeing Yu Tang's calm face, she just relaxed, stroked her chest and smiled at Yu Tang embarrassingly, and explained: "I, I'm always in a daze. It's too late... "
After all, Yu Tang is not really a seventeen-year-old girl. At this time in the previous life, she might find Miss Fifth ridiculous, but at this moment, she only thinks Miss Fifth is cute.
"Take your time." She comforted Fifth Miss, "If it's late, won't I still be with you?"
Fifth Miss smiled shyly, and asked Ah Shan while she was helping her get up, "Are the sisters here?"
Ah Shan smiled and said, "I just went up the mountain. I guess I haven't settled down at this time. When the young lady packs up, I just go to say hello to the old An."
Miss Fifth's expression became more relaxed.
Yu Tang was secretly surprised.
From the appearance of the second wife, she is a very talkative person. Why did she look like she was being strictly controlled when she came to Miss Fifth's place
They dressed up and went out, and just as Ah Shan said, at the door of the main hall, they met the other three young ladies of the Pei family who came to greet the old An.
The second young lady is still as proud as before. She is wearing a honey-colored beige with a silver-red edge, holding a gilt hand stove with a plum pattern in her hand, and she holds her head high when she looks at people.
The third lady wore a moon-white bigarment trimmed with squirrel fur, and a white rabbit fur muff, which was fluffy and warmed one's heart just by looking at it.
Seeing Yu Tang and Fifth Miss, she politely called out "Sister Yu" and "Fifth Younger Sister".
Fourth Miss ran over excitedly, took Fifth Miss's hand, greeted Yu Tang, and then started chirping about the preparation of new year's goods at home. The light green cloak looks particularly vibrant in this winter.
Either the people in the room heard the movement, or the little maids had already gone in to report, and Aunt Chen came out with a smile and lifted the curtain for them, and said to them: "Old An calculates that the ladies should be here, just now Order to let us boil sweet-scented osmanthus honey and come in, and the young ladies came over."
Everyone entered the room with a smile.
Miss Si let her maid help her take off the outer cloak, and laughed loudly: "It's better to be aunt and grandma, knowing that we want to drink sweet-scented osmanthus honey. It's very powerful! Just pinch your fingers and you know we're coming. "
The old An was amused and laughed.
The Fourth Miss took the Fifth Miss and ran to the old An's first to salute the old An.
The old An accepted her gift, and rewarded her with a jade for playing with.
Fourth Miss was so happy that her eyes turned into crescent moons.
Yu Tang thought that the second miss would compete with the fourth miss, but who knew that the second miss didn't say anything, and together with her and the third miss, went forward to salute the old An.
The old man looked at the group of beautiful little sisters in front of him, his eyebrows stretched, and he said: "It's almost Chinese New Year, let you go up the mountain briskly, and you are not allowed to run around, or I won't take you out to play next time!"
Everyone thanked him together, laughed softly and sat around Lao An.
The old man asked what he was doing these days, and how he was practicing that character. The atmosphere was very harmonious and warm.
Out of the corner of Yu Tang's eyes, he couldn't help but look at the second young lady who was sitting quietly next to her several times.
The Fourth Miss didn't know when she came to her ear, and she whispered with a smile: "Sister Yu, don't be surprised, the Second Sister is about to leave the cabinet, she is too embarrassed to play around with us."
Yu Tang suddenly realized, but was glared at by the second miss who heard the fourth miss.
She could only smile apologetically at the second lady.
Second Miss turned her face away and ignored her.
Yu Tang couldn't laugh or cry.
Mrs. Ji came in and asked the old An to show me if I could have dinner.
The old man waved his hand and said: "Set the meal! The girls must be hungry." He said to them in a warm voice: "The eight-treasure rice was made in the kitchen today."
Which little girl does not like to eat sweets
Several people cheered for a while.
Fourth Miss also asked the old An very lively: "Grandmother, can we eat dragon beard candy and gorgon fruit cake tomorrow?"
The old man smiled and said: "Okay, I will make it for you in the kitchen later."
The little girls cheered again.
Everyone was happy when a little maid came to report, "Mrs. Shen and Ms. Gu are here."
Everyone was taken aback.
The smile on Old An's face faded a little.
"Please come in!" Lao An said humanely.
Aunt Chen led the two of them in lightly.
Mrs. Shen looked like she had just recovered from a serious illness, but Gu Xi's face was radiant. She was wearing a cyan-colored satin gown, which set off her picturesque eyebrows and eyes, which were beautiful and compelling.
Yu Tang's heart sank, and he quickly cast a glance at Lao An.
There was no love or hatred on the old An's face, and he asked Mrs. Shen calmly: "Didn't I tell you to stay sick and recuperate? Why did you get up? Are you okay?"
"Thank you, Mrs. Shen." Mrs. Shen smiled weakly, "It's just an upset stomach, and it's not a serious illness. Just take a few medicines and you'll be fine."
Lao An said humanely: "You still have to rest well. Age is not forgiving, and you are also a person who sits around and looks around. It is not as good as before, and you can't let your temper go."
Mrs. Shen's face changed slightly.
Gu Xi hurriedly said: "Aunt Shen, let me help you sit down and talk!"
Aunt Chen seemed to be trying to smooth things over, she immediately smiled and moved an embroidered pier behind Mrs. Shen, and said, "Sit down!"
Mrs. Shen sat down with a pale complexion, glanced at the young ladies of the Pei family, and said, "Didn't I hear that the young ladies have all gone up the mountain, so I came here to say hello?"
The old man said neither soft nor hard: "You are an elder, even if you want to say hello, they are going to greet you, so you have to go here yourself."
Mrs. Shen said: "Our two families are not from other families, so we don't need to be so particular about it."
The old An raised his eyebrows, but didn't say anything.
Miss Pei is still young, and Yu Tang is an outsider, so it's okay to say, but the second lady snorted coldly.
