Both Yu Wen and Chen Shi were shocked.
Yu Tang never cared about these things before, let alone the words he said were so sharp.
Chen hurriedly said: "You child, how do you talk? The dead are the most important! You can't say that when you are outside. Others will say that you are mean."
Yu Tang didn't take it seriously, and felt that his parents couldn't be fooled by that chief executive, and said: "It's wrong to be that chief executive! Think about it, after he died like this, he recovered and gained a reputation of loyalty, but the living What? The errands of their family are over? No, not only their family, but also those who are related to their family, I am afraid they will not be able to work in Pei's house. There is also the long house. Although the third master has become the suzerain, but He has the old man's will, even if there is some intrigue in it, if he wins and loses, he will fight again if he is not convinced, what will others think about the long house after he dies like this? Is this dissatisfaction with the old man's arrangement? Or Do you want to compete with the third master for the position of the suzerain? The Pei family is not a one-person Pei family, but they have three branches. The long house is so noisy, isn't it afraid of the other two jokes? Or, the long house has no regard for face and decency , wholeheartedly trying to bring down the third master?"
Yu Wen and Chen Shi looked at each other in blank dismay.
Is this still their girl who only knows how to eat, drink and play
When did my daughter have such insight
Yu Tang had no self-knowledge, and asked his parents: "Am I not right? I hate people like chief executives who are trying to gain fame - they only care about their own honor before and after death, and they don't care about the lives of others. If he dies like this, the three Of course, the master cannot escape responsibility, and the head room has also been criticized."
She was still thinking that this method of fighting between the snipe and the clam, and making the fisherman profit, might be the second master's idea.
After all, he is the beneficiary of this matter.
However, Yu Tang was not worried that Master Pei San would fail.
He was a big winner in his previous life.
The difference from the previous life was that in the previous life, she thought that Mr. Pei San was living a very comfortable life, but in this life, it may not be so.
Yu Tang sighed, and asked his father: "Have you met the second master of the Pei family? What kind of person is he?"
At this time, she regretted that she didn't pay close attention to those things of the Pei family in her previous life.
Yu Wen came back to his senses, and said: "Of course I have met the second master. He is a very good person, knowledgeable, cultivated, gentle in character, generous in his actions, meticulous and thoughtful in dealing with others, and makes people feel like a spring breeze. He is a rare scholar."
The evaluation of the second master is so high!
Yu Tang was quite surprised.
After thinking about it, she felt that her father was a nice person to everyone, even Lu Xin, who sold him a fake painting and stole his money, but he still chose to forgive Lu Xin and not hold grudges against Lu Xin.
In her father's words, even hating people requires energy. Instead of hating someone, it's better to climb a mountain, buy some lake pens, make new clothes, and be happy.
Thinking of this, she thought of the painting with the seal of "Chunshuitang" again.
Since the seal on the original painting was correct, where did the painting that fell into her hands in the previous life come from
Yu Tang wondered, next time her father went to see shopkeeper Tong, would she make a fuss to go there too, and ask shopkeeper Tong if anyone had a private seal engraved with "Chunshuitang".
She was pondering over there, and heard the silent Chen say to her father: "Hui Li, I think A Tang's words are very reasonable. If the chief executive feels that the head of the house has been wronged and wants to stand up for the head of the house, We can wait for the old man to go out of the funeral before seeking justice from the third master."
Yu Tang was pleasantly surprised by her mother's awakening.
Yu Wen smiled wryly, and said: "We don't know what's going on, and it's not easy to talk about it." He politely told Chen Shi and Yu Tang not to talk about it anymore.
Yu Tang responded with a smile.
Chen also nodded.
Yu Bo's family came to visit.
After Yu Wen finished cooking the meal hastily, Mrs. Chen instructed Mrs. Chen and Shuang Tao to pack up the dishes, and went to make tea in person.
Yu Tang went to wash some fruits.
The two families sat down to talk.
Yu Bo asked Yu Wen about the chief manager: "Do you know?"
"Understood!" Yu Wen told his elder brother what he knew, and judged the Chief Manager based on what Yu Tang said just now.
Yu Tang was a little surprised.
She did not expect that the story of the chief executive hanging himself would spread so quickly.
After all the calculations, the chief executive had only been dead for a few hours.
But she was very happy to see that her father actually agreed with what she said, and smiled beside her.
Like Yu Wen before, Yu Bo felt that the chief executive was a loyal servant, but after hearing what Yu Wen said, he also felt that the chief executive's actions were a bit inappropriate. It's just that he came here for other reasons, and he said a few words with his younger brother, "Brother, do you know who took over the position of chief executive?"
Yu Wen never cared about these things, he hesitated and said, "Isn't it the third manager?"
"I heard it wasn't." Yu Bo said worriedly, "I heard that the one who took over the position of chief executive was neither the other two chief executives nor one of the seven supervisors, but a man named Pei Man. I've never heard of this People. You have been helping Pei's family these days, have you ever heard of this person?"
"No!" Yu Wen said in astonishment, "This surname is Pei, and he works as a servant. He is definitely not a child of the Pei family. That is the surname given. To be given a surname, he must be a very outstanding servant, but Pei Even if you haven't seen such an outstanding person, you should have heard of him. This guy named Pei Man suddenly appeared like this, and he became the chief executive all at once... "
"I think so too." Yu Bo said disappointedly, "I thought I was a merchant and didn't have much contact with the Pei family, so I haven't heard of it!"
Yu Wendao: "Why are you asking about this? Didn't Master Pei San agree to build the shop before? Now that he is the suzerain, it is even less likely that there will be any changes."
Yu Bo scratched his head, and said: "I'm not worried about this. I'm thinking that Pei Man has become the chief executive, so I have to congratulate him no matter what. If I can get some news from you, I can spend more time with him then." Let me say a few words. You don’t know that business is hard to do now, and all the tricks passed down from my ancestors have been burned. I’m wondering if we should change to another business after the shop has been rebuilt.”
Yu Yuan hesitated to speak.
Yu Tang felt that the eldest cousin was more powerful in business than his uncle, so he decided to help a group of eldest cousins. Relying on the fact that she is still a little girl, and her parents and uncles are very indulgent to her, she interjected: "My uncle also said that business is not easy to do, if you want to change careers, why don't you ask your eldest cousin to go outside and have a look. The eldest cousin has obtained the true biography of the eldest uncle, and he will definitely gain something."
Seeing his niece flattering him, Yu Bo laughed heartily, feeling very happy, waved his hand and said, "That's fine! Anyway, I'm going to be busy rebuilding the store during this time, so let your eldest cousin come to Hangzhou Mansion Stay for a while and see how other people do business."
I don't think Yu Yuan has any good ideas.
Yu Yuan is a man, Yu Bo is stricter with him, and he is more disciplined, he dare not speak when the elders are talking.
He glared at Yu Tang, and answered "Yes" respectfully.
Brothers Yu Bo and Yu Wen continued to gossip, Yu Yuan took the time to drag Yu Tang out, and threatened her: "If you talk nonsense like this again, I won't bring you combs and headbands when I go to Hangzhou. Our Yu family How can the lacquer art handed down from one's ancestors be changed casually? Besides, there are tricks in all walks of life, and it's not like you said that you can get started just by looking at it casually."
Yu Tang knows nothing about business, but she knows that if you want to do good things, you must first be a good person. If you want to be a good person, you must have vision and structure. .
"Big cousin, don't worry, I'm not making trouble." She smiled and explained to Yu Yuan, "Even if you don't agree with uncle's actions, you can't object. Instead of following reluctantly like you It’s better to go out and experience things around my uncle—it’s good to know how those world-renowned big shops entertain customers.”
Yu Yuan's heart skipped a beat.
Yu Tang said: "Eldest cousin, I will subsidize you five taels of silver."
Yu Yuan knocked on Yu Tang's head, and said: "With your little money, you can buy a few more packs of candies, and you want to support me."
"Big cousin, you can't look down on people!"
The two brothers and sisters made a fuss.
After sending off the eldest uncle's family, Yu Tang began to prepare to entertain Ma Xiuniang at home. For this matter, Yu Wen went to the street to order ice, and told Ah Shao to wait for Ma Xiuniang to arrive before going to the store to get it.
Ma Xiuniang ate the sweet-scented osmanthus brown sugar jelly mixed with ice, eyes staring with envy, leaning on the arhat couch with a mat, biting the ice creakingly, and said vaguely: "A Tang... delicious... how about you?" Recruit my second brother to be your son-in-law... Although he is only nine years old this year, you have raised him since he was a child, so he must be obedient... "
Yu Tang hadn't eaten osmanthus brown sugar jelly mixed with ice for a long time.
In the past when she was not out of the pavilion, it was Mrs. Chen who didn't let her eat more, for fear that she would get a cold stomach. Later, when she married into the Li family, it was because Mrs. Lin wanted to torture her.
She happily scooped up a large spoonful of ice and stuffed it into her mouth. She gave Ma Xiuniang a "bah" and said, "I don't want to help you raise my brother. My family wants to recruit a son-in-law. I must recruit a son-in-law who can do business. Where are the scholars!"
"Why?" Ma Xiuniang asked in surprise, "Scholars don't need to be taxed, and they are respected by others."
Yu Tang said nonchalantly: "Who would want to be the son-in-law of someone who can study, anyway, my father is already a scholar, so we can recruit someone who can do business, so that the family can be better off, so that we can urge our children and grandchildren to study in the future."
"Hee hee hee!" Ma Xiuniang covered her mouth and laughed straight, "So you want your son to earn your life for you!"
The little sisters would definitely talk nonsense when they met, but when it comes to Ma Xiuniang, it's still a bit embarrassing.
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Yu Tang dropped the bowl and scratched Ma Xiuniang's armpit, "I think you just want to wait for your husband-in-law to give you an order!"
Ma Xiuniang yelled, and hid from the couch to the door.
Yu Tang paused his hands, looked outside the bamboo curtain of Concubine Xiang, and raised his eyebrows.
"What's wrong?" Ma Xiuniang turned around and looked over.
Outside the curtain, Mrs. Chen is leading Mrs. Tang with a maid to Mrs. Chen's main room.
"What is she here for?" Ma Xiuniang stood next to Yu Tang, a little disgusted, "She is the most snobbish person, there is nothing that she won't come to the door."
