Yu Tang opened his eyes wide, feeling like his jaw was about to drop.
"Eldest son...Miss Gu wants to betroth to the eldest son... Yes, is he the eldest son of the Pei family? The son of the elder, your nephew?" She stuttered, her mind seemed to be muddled, There is no way to think, so I can only rely on instinct to speak, "Then the Yang family is the eldest wife's natal family?"
How could she think that it was Pei Yan who was going to marry Gu Xi
Yu Tang said in a confused way, she had asked Pei Yan before, and Pei Yan clearly answered her "then don't say it", but "then don't say it" doesn't necessarily mean denying it!
And he did not deny it!
At this time, Yu Tang realized belatedly that Pei Yan was just teasing her!
Her face became hot immediately, and she couldn't hold back her temper anymore, and she yelled at Pei Yan: "You, you are just reading my joke!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Pei Yan raised his chin and squinted at her, looking at her as if he was looking at a vexatious child, "Obviously you rushed to me and told me that you and Gu Xi is at odds, Gu Xi is not good enough for me, I thought about it for a long time, and thought what you said was quite reasonable, so I pushed back the marriage with the Gu family. I just didn't expect that I was finally persuaded by you, but my sister-in-law jumped into the I'm in a pit, am I still worried about what to do about this?"
Yu Tang had no face to face Pei Yan, turned around and ran away without saying a word.
Pei Yan couldn't bear it anymore and burst out laughing.
Yu Tang didn't seem to be able to hear Pei Yan's laughter from behind until he ran out of the farm.
Why is she so stupid!
How could she think that Pei Yan's study is a piece of material, even if he can learn to manage common affairs well, he must be lacking in human sophistication... But now it seems that he clearly knows everything!
She deserved to be laughed at by Pei Yan.
Ah Ming rushed up panting, shouting "Miss Yu" loudly.
Yu Tang really wanted to bury her head and leave, but her home was at least two quarters of an hour away from Xiaomei Lane, and the sedan chair she hired was still parked in the sedan hall of Pei's house, so she couldn't avoid it even if she wanted to.
Yu Tang had no choice but to stop, acting as if nothing happened, and asked Ah Ming calmly, "What's wrong? Why is it important that you stop me?"
Ah Ming said: "The third master asked me to send a sedan chair to take you back home, and also asked me to take two boxes of snacks, saying that I want you to take them back to give your wife a taste of something new. They were just delivered from the capital yesterday. It’s very different from our dim sum in the south.” He explained, afraid that Yu Tang would not accept it, “I’ve already arranged the sedan chair, please come with me. The third master of our family also said that someone from your house will Just come to the door and take it directly to the third manager."
There are not many families who can be treated like this by the Pei family, and in Lin'an City, it is even more honorable.
Yu Tang looked numb, and decided not to pretend to be smart anymore, and came to see Pei Yan.
Her mind went blank and she didn't know how she got home.
Pei Yan couldn't stop laughing.
This young lady from the Yu family is really interesting.
It can be seen that he still has a good eye for people, otherwise when he saw her bluffing and cheating under the name of the Pei family, he would have felt unhappy, thinking that this little girl is a troublemaker.
Now she mistakenly thought that he was going to marry the Gu family, so she came to warn him.
If he doesn't listen, I don't know if she will try to break up the marriage between "him and the Gu family" just like destroying the marriage between the Gu family and the Li family.
These thoughts flashed through his mind, and he felt a little regretful.
Shouldn't he have called her back, should he have misunderstood her, and then see what methods she will come up with to destroy the marriage of "him and the Gu family"? However, if when she returned to Yu's house and found that what she had heard were rumors, then he would definitely not see her such an interesting reaction just now. Thinking about it this way, it would be more interesting to keep her a little longer and let her know the truth of the matter.
Pei Yan was satisfied and felt that this was the happiest thing he had ever encountered in this period of time.
This made Shu Qing, who had just heard the news of the possible marriage between Pei and Gu's family, stop in surprise, and asked in bewilderment, "Did something happy happen when I just rushed here?"
Pei Yan restrained his smile, and said calmly: "No, nothing happened." But after saying this, a smile flashed in his eyes that he didn't even notice.
Shu Qing was full of confusion, but Pei Yan had already refused to answer him. Naturally, he couldn't ask any more questions, so he could only keep this confusion in his heart and ask Pei Man when he had time. He talked about his purpose of coming to find Pei Yan: "Should the eldest son's marriage be left to the Yang family to mess around like this? It is good to marry the Gu family, but it is not the best choice for the eldest son."
Pei Yan shook his head, with a sneering smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Do you think the Yang family doesn't know? But they are more afraid that my mother and I will make a fuss about the eldest son's marriage, and they would rather get it in their hands first. The development has been good in the past two years. Although marrying Ms. Gu is a bit risky, it is not a disadvantage. Since my mother has agreed to the Yang family, she must not want to take care of the affairs there. That's all right. It will be a blessing or a curse in the future. It's all chosen by them themselves, just don't blame me for not stopping it."
Shu Qing sighed.
Pei Yan couldn't help but said: "What an idiot! Even a little girl who doesn't know anything knows that this marriage is not good, but he is a big man who obeys the woman's words and does whatever he asks. Even if he becomes an official in the future, I will It seems that he is a muddled official, as long as he doesn't kill anyone, he doesn't cause trouble for the family."
little girl? !
Shu Qing rolled her eyes, feeling as if she understood something, and couldn't believe her guess.
If the third master really has such thoughts, the difference in status and status between the two of them will inevitably be too far apart. I'm afraid it will be difficult to handle this matter!
He was thinking about it in his heart, and Pei Yan said over there: "I'm afraid you have to come forward to see what the Yang family and the Gu family have said. I'm too lazy to explain the details to them like a small businessman. These things are left to you."
Shu Qing suddenly felt a headache, but still could only agree.
Over there, Yu Tang had already arrived home, and his mood gradually calmed down.
She was surprised, how could she be so sure that Pei Yan and Gu Xi would marry the Pei family and the Gu family? She had such a misunderstanding, so what about the ladies in Pei's mansion? I don't know what kind of expression they will have when they know that Gu Xi is going to marry Pei Tong, the eldest son of the Pei family, and will become their sister-in-law
Tomorrow she will go to Ku'an Temple with the female family members of the Pei family... If Pei Yan would go to Ku'an Temple with them like last time, wouldn't she also see Pei Yan tomorrow
Yu Tang immediately fidgeted.
That person Pei Yan is usually so deserted, let alone joking, he just doesn't have any kind words. Today, he laughed indistinctly in front of her, as if he was so happy. If I saw her tomorrow, how would I tease her
Can she not go to Ku'an Temple tomorrow!
Yu Tang thought about it in his heart, and thought about a lot of excuses, but none of them seemed convincing enough.
Does she have to go to Ku'an Temple with Pei Yan tomorrow
The villain in Yu Tang's heart squatted beside the threshold with his head in his arms.
If there was a crack in the ground, she would slip in.
But why did the Gu family suddenly collude with Pei's family
She remembered that when Gu Xi was in Pei's other courtyard, he had no relationship with the eldest wife. Gu Xi had always been devoted to Pei Yan before, so how could he agree to marry Pei Tong? Wouldn't it be embarrassing for her? Or is it that the girl from a wealthy family thinks differently from her? Didn't some people say before that the rich and powerful families are the only ones who can be matched, and the range of choices is very small. Is it because of this that Gu Xi changed his mind
No matter what, Gu Xi was not able to marry Pei Yan, Yu Tang was quite happy in his heart.
Chen asked her to help make two pairs of socks for her unborn nephew, and she immediately agreed.
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Chen asked Mrs. Chen curiously, "Didn't you say that you went out to buy pearl flowers? Why didn't you buy pearl flowers back? It's as if someone hit your head with something. Are you laughing?"
Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "It must be something good happened?"
After listening to Mrs. Chen's words, Yu Tang smiled even brighter.
In the future, Gu Xi will be under the control of Pei Yan's wife. When she sees Pei Yan's wife, she has to respectfully call her "Auntie". Just thinking about it makes her feel elated.
She doesn't have to leave Lin'an City anymore.
Yu Tang said loudly: "Mom, shall we cook water shield and whitebait soup today? There are already water shield sellers on the street!"
Mrs. Chen intentionally teased her, and snorted softly: "Do you know how much water shield is sold for a catty now? It is more expensive than meat. Do you want to eat water shield? Either wait for a few days, or wait until you go to bitter with Pei Laoan tomorrow. When you are at the Temple, see if the people at Kuan Temple will entertain you."
Yu Tang curled her lips, but that didn't dampen the joy in her heart.
But in the afternoon, she still quietly sent Shuangtao to meet Fifth Miss, and asked her if she would go to Ku'an Temple with Pei Banquet tomorrow.
Miss Wu was very sure of her reply this time, she said: "something happened at home, my third uncle might not be free, even my grandmother, I don't know if I will go to Decheng Kuan Temple tomorrow. I won’t be able to explain it clearly for a while, and we will talk about it when we meet.”
Yu Tang suspected that it was the marriage between the Pei and Gu families.
But Pei Yan didn't go to Ku'an Temple, which made her feel at ease.
Early the next morning, she went to Pei's mansion.
Sure enough, neither Pei Yan nor Lao An was free, and it was Lao An Yi and the second wife who took them there. But the young ladies in Pei's mansion already knew that Gu Xi was going to marry Pei Tong, and the fifth young lady started discussing with Yu Tang in a low voice while sitting in the mule cart: "We were all shocked, eldest cousin is only married this year. Eighteen years old, still in the filial piety, we all felt that he had to wait until he was a filial piety before getting engaged. Besides, wasn't it rumored that the eldest cousin and his natal cousin were childhood sweethearts? Why did he suddenly want to marry Sister Gu? Is it? Could it be that when Sister Gu came to the house as a guest a few days ago, she was accidentally spotted by the aunt?"
