The gazebo beside Mingshan Lake was bitingly cold with the cold wind blowing.
Wrapped in a cloak, Yu Tang asked Pei Yan tremblingly, "Why do you come here to talk? Can't you find a warm pavilion or something?"
Pei Yan didn't answer, but glanced at Yu Tang's cloak.
With the lining of squirrel skin and the surface of plain silk, it's no wonder you feel cold.
In this season, you should use fox fur or mink fur for the lining, and Kesi or Shu embroidery for the surface.
The Yu family is considered rich now, so they are reluctant to make a better cloak for Miss Yu.
Pei Yan frowned.
Yu Tang was stunned.
Following his gaze, he saw his cloak.
She immediately glared.
Why does this Pei Yan stare at her clothes every time
She is not the young lady of the Pei family, she has a lot of entertainment, and she has to wear different clothes every time she entertains. This cloak was remade from her mother's dowry. The fur was well preserved. There was only a cluster of orchids embroidered on one corner of the plain cloak.
Why is he always looking down on me
Yu Tang sneered in his heart, and decided not to let Pei Yan live.
Just in time, there was another gust of cold wind blowing, and the cold wind poured straight in. She simply wrapped her cloak again, and said with a thorn in her hand, "Or the waterside pavilion will do it! Standing here like this, people will freeze into popsicles."
Is the place he chose so bad
Pei Yan explained: "This is the closest place to Merlin."
All right!
Considering that Lao An is still admiring plum blossoms in the plum grove, Yu Tang decides to keep short even if he has a long story.
She said, "Is there something you want to do with me?"
Pei Yan originally wanted to directly ask her about what happened at home, but Yu Tang's complaint just now made Pei Yan feel that she had not arranged things well, and she felt a little uncomfortable, so she first talked about Li Duan's family. In my heart, I subconsciously felt that if Yu Tang knew that Li Duan was in trouble, he would be very happy.
"You told me about the Li family, so I went to check it out." Pei Yan pondered, "It's really like what you said, when Li Yi was the magistrate in Rizhao, his hands and feet were indeed a little dirty." Speaking of Here, he pursed his lips.
Thousands of miles to be an official for money.
This is the reason why many people enter official careers in the first place.
Pei Yan could understand, but disagreed.
So when he knew what Li Yi had done in Rizhao, he was very angry.
Everything has a bottom line, beyond this line, it is disgusting.
He wrote about Li Yi and told him about a same year who was a censor in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and this same year had always been ambitious and wanted to be a capable official who would leave his name in history.
He will definitely tell Li Yi how to behave.
Yu Tang was overjoyed.
In other words, that family can clear up their grievances earlier.
She couldn't help but said, "Then, what are you going to do?"
Pei Yan saw that her eyes were showing the familiar bright light like the summer sun again, and nodded secretly with satisfaction, but said calmly: "Doesn't their family want to move to Hangzhou City? Then simply Just move over there."
Yu Tang was stunned.
Usually this kind of people who have moved out and never come back have no property in the local area.
In other words, Pei Yan wanted to force the Li family to sell their ancestral property, if not all, then most of it.
She thought of the ancestral properties sold by the Yu family in her previous life, and suddenly felt that the retribution of the Li family was slowly coming in this life under Pei Yan's careless care.
"Thank you, Third Master!" She murmured, the corners of her eyes flickering.
Pei Yan looked suspicious.
He didn't say anything, why is Ms. Yu so excited and grateful all of a sudden? Could it be that Ms. Yu hates the Li family to the point that she is happy whenever the Li family is unlucky
Pei Yan couldn't understand.
Yu Tang had no intention of explaining to him, and fooled him with sloppy eyes: "Oh, am I thinking about the 150 mu of land left by the Li family? Their land is the best land in Lin'an City , I can’t buy it even if I have money. It’s hard to wait until the Li family is going to be unlucky, how can I resist such a big temptation?”
She said it jokingly, and there was a kind of pure joy in her eyes that did not involve any kindness or hatred.
I am really happy.
Pei Yan was stunned for a moment, and his voice could not help but lighten a bit, and said: "If our family also wants the one hundred and fifty acres of land!"
Yu Tang was very surprised.
In her heart, Pei Yan is not a person who speaks casually.
At this time, he asked her for the 150 mu of land of the Li family.
Knowing that this sentence might be a joke, Yu Tang couldn't help but feel happy.
She said: "Of course it's for your family! It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree! With your family, at least you don't have to worry about watering the fields in the future."
Thinking about it this way, it really makes sense!
Pei Yan laughed in a rare way, and said, "How about we go to the nearby waterside pavilion to talk?"
Across the lake, on the opposite side of the gazebo is a waterside pavilion standing on the water.
Yu Tang thought Pei Yan was here to tell her about this, shook his head again and again, and said, "Forget it, this place is pretty good. Old An is still waiting for me to go back!"
Seeing that she had returned to normal, Pei Yan gradually calmed down, and talked about his reason for coming: "You just sent a letter back to your home in the morning, and then sent someone to reply to your letter in the afternoon. Is there something wrong at home? ?”
Yu Tang felt that Pei Yan had seen her when she was at her most embarrassing and embarrassing, and there was nothing she couldn't tell him.
She told Pei Yan about asking Mr. Zhang to draw a picture.
Pei Yan was very surprised and looked Yu Tang up and down.
Yu Tang asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
But in my heart, I wondered if I did something wrong, and I kept thinking about what I had done.
Who knows that Pei Yan said seriously: "I didn't expect you to have this kind of business experience. Have you ever thought about making 留田?"
Now the most expensive furniture is inlaid with tin. The red lacquered ones like theirs are usually small pieces, and they may be used for a lifetime. Some people don't necessarily have to buy them even when they get married.
Furniture is different.
Everyone needs it at home.
But there are still more black lacquered furniture.
It can be seen that Pei Yan is not always right.
Yu Tang refused very tactfully, and said with a smile: "Our family's ancestral handicraft is picking red lacquer. If it is to make ingots, it is tantamount to looking far away and throwing away the old handicraft. It is still not worthwhile to think about it."
The Pei family has a lot of business, but most of them are still in the hands of the shopkeeper. At most, he just asks and looks at the accounts. He really doesn't understand these things.
"I'll just talk about it." He said, "Someone recently asked me to take over a workshop for making ingots. I'm still thinking about it, so I thought I'd ask you whether it's necessary for your family."
Yu Tang was surprised.
If it is just a workshop for making ingots, there are too many places that can be used.
As long as the manager does not mess around, it is a very profitable business.
This is really in line with the old saying "money chases money".
But she was also a little curious about why someone would sell such a workshop.
Pei Yan didn't lie to her, saying: "It belongs to the Song family." He also explained: "Isn't their family partnering with the Peng family and the Wu family to build ships? Needless to say, the Peng family, the Wu family was originally a nouveau riche who became a squire. Yes. But the cost of building a ship is high, how can their family have the money to fight with those two? I wondered if the Peng family and the Wu family wanted to join forces to squeeze the Song family out, so they set up some kind of trap. The Song family is now I have no choice but to sell some properties quietly to save the day.” At this point, he seemed to think of something, “Hey”, and said again: “Is it necessary to paint the red paint many times, the Song family seems to have a paint Workshop…”
But their family doesn't need a paint workshop to provide paint!
The most important thing is that there is no one in their family to manage these industries.
An industry that counts on the help of others will not make much money in the end.
This is Yu Tang's previous experience.
She politely refused again, thinking that if she continued talking to Pei Yan like this, Pei Yan might have something surprising to say, so she hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Do you want to take over the Song family's business? What is their most profitable thing?" ?”
"It's weaving." Pei Yan said, without answering whether he wanted to take over the Song family's business, "However, weaving is too troublesome. It's not enough to make people feel that the weaving is good without weaving tributes. To make tributes, someone needs to talk to the twenty-four yamen. Dealing with the people here..." At this point, he stopped suddenly and became dazed.
Yu Tang didn't know why.
Pei Yan asked her: "Do you know Jiang Chao?"
Jiang Chao lived in their house for a while, so of course she knew her. But looking at Pei Yan's appearance, it clearly refers to whether she knows Jiang Chao.
Yu Tang thought it over and said: "It's not bad! I have heard my father say it many times."
Pei Yan nodded, and then asked about other things in a wild way: "Does your shop only need to have good paintings?"
"It looks like this now." Yu Tang said conservatively, "Business is something that needs to be explored a little bit."
Pei Yan said: "Mr. Zhang's paintings are really so good?"
Yu Tang said with a smile: "I have little knowledge. From what I have seen, Mr. Zhang's paintings are the best."
Pei Yan nodded and said: "Okay! It's good that nothing happened in your family. I invited you to accompany my mother, and I can't let you hang on to both ends. If you have any problems at home, you can just call the servant girl to come Tell me, and I'll do my best to help you out."
Yu Tang thanked him.
The two separated.
Needless to say, Yu Tang went back to Mei Lin. It's just that Merlin's poetry meeting is over now, and everyone is preparing to go to the old Ann.
As soon as Gu Xi saw her, he smiled and said, "It's better to come early than to come by coincidence. You came back just after we decided to eat mutton pot for dinner. It can be seen that Miss Yu is a lucky one."
"Didn't you say you will have barbecue at night?" Yu Tang said unexpectedly.
Why did you change your mind again
The fourth lady blushed, and faltered and said: "Miss Gu's poem review was the first, and the third sister was the second. Miss Gu said that she was the biggest, so she let the third sister choose. The third sister said that the barbecue would get angry, so I can't eat it at night." Alright, let’s eat the pot instead.”
It's not surprising that Gu Xi's poem commented first on Yu Tang.
It can be seen that there was another bet after she left.
She can eat anything, and said with a smile: "That's fine. If it's still snowing tomorrow, we'll have another barbecue."
Yu Tang's words touched the hearts of Miss Fourth and Miss Fifth.
The two nodded in unison, and a group of people talked and laughed and hugged Lao An to the main courtyard.
On the way, Gu Xi wanted to ask Yu Tang a few times, "You don't care how your poem got", but she endured it.
