Yu Tang made two "tsk tsk" in his heart.
It's such a method again, always likes to put people on the stove and roast them, as if the person in the bamboo forest just now is not her.
Yu Tang raised his eyebrows at Gu Xi with a smile, but said to Miss Fifth: "Why did the Yang family arrive in the blink of an eye? Didn't you say that we should go back to the room and take a nap first? I thought it was still early, I was thinking that I could change my clothes again when I came back, but I didn’t expect the people from the Yang family to come so fast. When I heard the news, I turned over halfway. We don’t need to greet Mr. Yang later, right?” she asked Pei The young ladies from the family spoke nervously, "This is the first time I have encountered such an occasion, so I don't feel very sure?"
The young ladies of the Pei family were immediately led astray by her.
The third lady immediately comforted her and said: "No, no need. Sister Yu, don't worry. We came here to drink tea because we were with the second sister. Aunt Chen turned a blind eye, it is impossible for us to see Foreigners."
Fourth Miss asked curiously: "Has Sister Yu never encountered such a thing?"
"It's not like I haven't met before." Yu Tang smiled, "It's just that I haven't met someone like Mr. Yang. The little sisters around me meet each other, or make an appointment in the temple, or make an appointment in some household. We will pretend to be admiring flowers or doing embroidery work there, and the man will pass by, and everyone will look at each other. We will all be by the side."
Miss Wu immediately said: "It's more interesting to see each other than our family. We don't show up when we see each other from our side. When Mr. Yang comes, we only need the second sister to bring some tea in to respect the elders. So we That's why they're all hiding here!" After speaking, she covered her mouth and laughed.
Third Miss and Fourth Miss also pursed their lips and smiled.
The second lady blushed with shame, and said angrily: "Let you sit here and drink tea, but you can't stop your mouths." It didn't stop the fifth lady from explaining the rules of the Pei family to Yu Tang, she was a typical "knife mouth, tofu Heart".
Yu Tang smiled, seeing that he had mastered the rhythm of his speech, he turned around with a smile, and answered Gu Xi's questioning question just now: "Did Miss Gu care about why I went to see the third master just now? I looked at the layman of Ku'an Temple They each have their own hardships, and the Pei family has been funding the Kuan Temple, thinking that it is better to teach them to fish than to teach them to fish, so they want to discuss whether they can help the monks in the temple to find something to do. In order not to rely on the temple for all their daily needs, after a long time, they are afraid that someone will fight against Mien, and the Pei family will not only have a good reputation, but will complain instead; If you are busy with meals, you won't have time to think about it all day long, and you won't be dying—if there is trouble in the temple, it will always be bad for the reputation of the Pei family."
This was what she thought about on the way back.
She didn't remember it when she ran to ask Pei Yan, but she remembered something on the way back.
Three years later, a layman practicing in Ku'an Temple died of drinking arsenic, but the husband who drove the layman out of the house, together with the layman's natal family, came to the temple to make a fuss, saying that the temple forced the layman to death. At that time, this incident caused quite a stir in Lin'an City. It was because of this incident that many people in Lin'an City knew that there was a Ku'an Temple at the foot of Tianmu Mountain, and that the Ku'an Temple would house homeless women.
Although the last incident was that the layman's husband and natal family were sentenced by the government, it was not a good thing after all.
She wondered, could it be because of this incident that the Pei family has not protected the Ku'an Temple in the open
What's more, after everyone knew about the good deeds done by Ku'an Temple, many women from poor families pretended to be abused by their husbands or sons and ran to Ku'an Temple to grab a meal, and almost emptied Ku'an Temple.
Later Ku'an Temple was closed.
Without the recommendation of acquaintances, the temple no longer takes in female relatives casually.
In order to avoid being taken advantage of by unscrupulous people for doing good deeds, Yu Tang thinks that it should be done like in the later period of Ku'an Temple in his previous life, so that the people of Ku'an Temple can live a self-sufficient life earlier.
The third lady was full of appreciation when she heard it, and said loudly: "Sister Yu, this is a good idea. No one wants to eat the food that comes from you. Do something in exchange for your own food, and it will be more dignified."
The corners of Yu Tang's mouth twitched.
Not everyone has such backbone!
At the beginning, Ku'an Temple was in chaos for a while, and was even criticized for trying to gain fame and compete with Zhaoming Temple.
But she didn't want to destroy Miss San's pure and kind heart.
She smiled and said: "I just don't know what kind of livelihoods can be found for these masters in the temple? After thinking about it, I still have to ask the third master about this matter. I asked Shuangtao to report to the third master. The third master not only agreed Seeing me, I was still waiting in the bamboo forest at our door. Who knew that when I arrived in the bamboo forest, it was as if a ghost had hit the wall. I heard someone talking inside, but I couldn’t find the speaker. I went around in the bamboo forest It took me a long time to find the third master." After finishing speaking, she looked at Gu Xi seriously, "If I had known this, I would have asked the third master to meet in another place. In the bamboo forest, people from the east cannot see the west. People in the west can't see the east, so it's a very good place to hide and seek, but there is no cover for talking, so it's not suitable for talking."
Gu Xi's face turned pale immediately.
Could it be that Yu Tang overheard her conversation with the third master
if so…
Gu Xi felt that her face was thrown into the sea.
How will she stand in the world in the future
But many years of behavior told her that this matter could not be over like this, she should pretend not to know, and test Yu Tang's tone.
If she did hear it, she had to know how much she had heard it.
What does she mean by saying this now? Are you simply dissatisfied with her or do you want to use this to warn her
Gu Xi quickly calmed down, and said with a smile: "That place is indeed not a good place to talk. However, Ms. Yu also said that she is too incompetent. She can't tell the difference between the south, the south, and the north with a palm. A central sponsor of a mansion? Ms. Yu is being modest, isn't she?"
She acted like nothing happened.
Yu Tang sneered in his heart.
She is the one who has the right to speak now, and Gu Xi is still so arrogant, she doesn't mind giving Gu Xi a few enemies.
"Really?" She laughed, "I don't know what the relationship between getting lost and the host is? However, after thinking about it, what Miss Gu said makes sense. It is indeed a big problem if you can't even see the way clearly. Fortunately, my family is a small family, so it is rare to see such a large bamboo forest, so it must be nothing to do with it?"
Third Miss, Fourth Miss and Fifth Miss could not help but look at each other in blank dismay.
Everyone was talking well just now, but in the blink of an eye, Ms. Yu and Ms. Gu met each other. Especially Ms. Gu, who has always been generous and neither humble nor overbearing, but at this time, although her face is still calm and elegant, she reveals a guilty conscience and uneasiness in her bones, as if she has done something wrong and was met by Ms. .
As for Ms. Yu, she had acted very gentle and harmless before, even calming things down and avoiding disputes. As a result, she seemed to be a different person just now, her words were soft and soft.
What could make Miss Gu feel so guilty? What made Miss Yu so different from the past
The three little girls looked at me and I looked at you, and suddenly they didn't know what to do.
Under Gu Xi's deliberate befriending these days, the second young lady regards Gu Xi as a sister, so naturally she can't tolerate Yu Tang targeting Gu Xi like this. She didn't care that today was the day she saw each other, so she took Gu Xi's arm a few steps forward, Standing on the opposite side of Yu Tang, he said: "Miss Yu, the third sister made the tea herself today, and said it was melon slices from Lu'an, and we also put the snacks you gave us. I'm thirsty too, sit down with us and have a cup of tea!"
Yu Tang had no intention of spoiling the important event of the second miss seeing her son-in-law, so she let Gu Xi go with a smile, and sat with the fourth and fifth misses.
Gu Xi didn't dare to delve into it, for fear that Yu Tang would say something that shouldn't be said.
She also sat down with the second miss, thanked the second miss schemingly, and whispered: "I'm afraid I offended her by saying that she didn't know about hosting the show, and you are too tired to rescue me. Excuse me."
Because now is not the time to talk, Second Miss smiled at her kindly and shook her head.
The third lady over there exchanged glances with each other, pretending that nothing happened, and the third lady continued to talk about helping the monks of Ku'an Temple to find a job: "Sister Yu, you Do you want to teach those people how to make silk flowers? We can all help."
Miss Si nodded repeatedly beside her, and said: "I can also help. My mother has a rouge gouache shop, I can tell my mother and help them sell it in the rouge gouache shop."
Miss Wu thought and thought, and said distressedly: "My mother doesn't have a rouge and gouache shop for dowry, but there are a few good farms, but they are all in the north. Or, or I'll help those people make silk flowers The silk flowers I make now are very beautiful. My mother praised me a few days ago. When I gave my parents a new year gift, they also sent the silk flowers I made for my grandmother, aunt, and cousins.”
They are all kind-hearted girls!
Yu Tang smiled, and said slyly: "I'm afraid it's not suitable to make silk flowers. This is a nunnery after all."
The young ladies of the Pei family were all taken aback, and even Gu Xi looked at Yu Tang in surprise.
Yu Tang then said slowly: "The nunnery, of course, is the most suitable for selling incense!"
Miss Wu immediately cried out and said, "Sister Yu is talking about the kind of incense made by Sister Gu?"
Everyone looked at Gu Xi again.
Every time Gu Xi makes incense, he has to burn incense and bathe. Speaking of making incense, he either uses rootless water buried under a century-old plum tree three years ago, or uses sweet-scented osmanthus that blooms in early autumn. A very sacred thing. She has received a lot of praise. Including this short stay in Pei's residence, everyone got the incense made by her and knew that she was very good at making incense.
Since Yu Tang wanted to teach her a lesson, he naturally had to start with what she was most proud of.
Gu Xi is indeed a little proud at the moment.
After all, this woman Yu Tang came from a small family, so she didn't know much. She wanted to do good deeds, but she put up an airs and asked her to sing in an opera—if she came forward and told those lay monks to make incense, what would it matter to her, Yu Tang? It was the Pei family who supported her behind her, and she, Gu Xi, was the one who helped.
Yu Tang just made wedding clothes for them.
