Is Pei Yan so kind
Yu Tang looked at the rock candy bird's nest in his hand and said, "The third master just asked Ah Ming to send the bird's nest over, and didn't say anything else?"
Shuangtao thought about it carefully, and said, "I didn't say anything else."
Yu Tang muttered softly: "Why did you suddenly think of bringing food over?"
She took a sip, it was quite sweet, and said, "Did you send the mother's bowl?"
Shuangtao hurriedly said: "It's been delivered. Madam has already changed her clothes, and it was Mrs. Chen who came out to pick her up."
After hearing this, Yu Tang drank the bird's nest in two mouthfuls, and handed the empty bowl to Shuangtao. Shuangtao put the bowl and came over with water to rinse Yu Tang's mouth. Mrs. Chen came in with an empty bowl and said, "Madam said, you can't accept the gift from the third master for nothing, and ask us to bring the bowl with us when we return the bowl." Send two boxes of peanut crisps."
This time at Zhaoming Temple, Mrs. Chen made a lot of dim sum for gifts.
Yu Tang thought it was feasible, and let Shuangtao and Mrs. Chen toss about, and fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow, and woke up at dawn.
Shuangtao hurriedly came in to help her freshen up, muttering: "Yesterday when I went to return the bowl, the third master's side was still brightly lit. It is said that apart from the female relatives of the Song family and Peng family this time, the elder master of the Song family and the fourth master, The eldest master, third master, fifth master, sixth master, seventh master, eldest young master and second young master of the Peng family have all come over, and the third master is talking to them! I heard that there will be two masters in the Wu family in Huzhou tomorrow, two Young master, some wives and young mistresses are here. The Zhike master of Zhaoming Temple has a big head, and they have been discussing how to arrange the wing room all night. Fortunately, we followed the people from Peifu to live in first, otherwise there would be no place to stand gone."
She also nagged: "The Pei family also hosted temple fairs and lectures in the past, and this time the most people came. The eminent monk that Pei Lao'an invited from the South Shaolin Temple must be very powerful. Miss, if that eminent monk is willing to give You and the ladies of the Pei family prayed for blessings, and you said, should we prepare some thank you gifts? Should we prepare some thank you gifts? Do you want to ask Mrs. Ji for advice on this matter? "
From Shuangtao's point of view, Aunt Ji and Shopkeeper Tong are in-laws, so they can be regarded as friends with their Yu family.
Yu Tang nodded indiscriminately, and said, "I have to ask my mother about this", but I thought in my heart that the families who came to the lecture this time were all the families who came to take the map. Days later, the ship should be built soon, and she would not believe that the appearance of these companies had nothing to do with maritime trade.
The mountains and rain are about to come, and the wind is all over the building!
Yu Tang took a deep breath, always feeling a little uneasy.
Mrs. Chen came over to her daughter after she finished her dressing. Seeing that Yu Tang was almost cleaned up, she asked Mrs. Chen to bring breakfast over, while she sat on the embroidered pier next to the round table in the middle of the room and discussed with her daughter how to send the eminent monk. Thanking Li, he praised Yu Wen and said: "Fortunately, your father asked me to bring two good inkstones here. Otherwise, how can I get the dim sum I made? This mountain is no better than the mountain, and you can't buy it with money. It can be seen that there must be someone who can make up his mind in this family." Then the topic shifted to her marriage, "Don't always listen to your father, and ignore all my words. If Mrs. Wu next time I will arrange a meeting for you, you have to take a good look at it. If you don't get in touch with this person, you don't know what kind of temperament it is, maybe this is your fate... "
Yu Tang seemed to be respectful, but his left ear listened and his right ear went out.
She knows her mother's knots, but she always feels that marriage matters sometimes depend on fate. If fate comes, even if you go around, this person is yours. There is no fate, just like in the previous life, even if you make a marriage, you will suddenly lose it.
It wasn't until Mrs. Chen came over with breakfast that she interrupted Mrs. Chen's words.
Chen also knew that it was not good for her to be like this, but she became very anxious when she saw her daughter's indifference to her marriage. However, it is a good idea to come to Zhaoming Temple to listen to the lectures. I heard that many wives of respectable country gentry families have come. Maybe the chance for my daughter is at this lecture
Thinking of this, Mrs. Chen cheered up again, had breakfast with her daughter, took the two boxes that Ah Ming sent over last night, and was about to go to Mr. Pei's place, when a little novice ran in, Said: "Mrs. Yu, there is a lady surnamed Wu who said that she is a neighbor of your family and wants to see you on business."
Chen Shi and Yu Tang were astonished, and hurriedly invited people in.
The person who came was Mrs. Wu's close wife. She said with an embarrassed expression: "Our wife heard that there will be a lecture here, so she asked me to come here in advance to book a wing room. Who knew that I was three days in advance. I rushed to the temple before dawn, but the Zhike master in the temple said that the wing room is gone... I heard that you would move in early with the female family members of the Pei family, so I came to you with the cheek Let's see if you can find a way to book a room for our wife."
The Chen family can't decide this matter, she said: "I also borrowed the Dongfeng from the Pei family." But the Wu family helped their family a lot, she was too embarrassed to refuse like this, and said, "Otherwise, you should also first Try to find as much as possible, and I will help you to ask, see if we can find a way together to book a wing room for your wife."
The old woman left gratefully.
Mrs. Chen shook her head, and said: "Mrs. Wei also said the other day that she would bring the family's female relatives here. Look at this, it must be impossible to book a wing room."
Yu Tang didn't say anything.
Mrs. Chen also knew that this matter was not easy to handle, and it was not something that could be done in a short while, so she suppressed the emotion in her heart and went to Pei Lao'an with Yu Tang first.
Aunt Ji was on duty at the door, and when she saw Yu Tang's mother and daughter, she gave them a wink, then turned around and whispered a few words to a little maid behind her, and welcomed Yu Tang's mother and daughter to the nearby waiter.
Yu Tang's mother and daughter found that Mrs. Yang San and Miss Xu were already sitting in the tea room drinking tea.
Mrs. Yang San and Ms. Xu stood up to greet Yu Tang's mother and daughter. Mrs. Yang San even pointed to the cakes on the coffee table and said to Mrs. Chen: "I haven't eaten the dim sum in Beijing for many years. .You have a taste and see if it suits your taste."
Mrs. Chen thanked her and sat down next to Mrs. Yang San.
Mrs. Ji explained with a wry smile: "The wives of the Song family and the Peng family brought some young masters here, so I have to wrong you and the third wife to have a cup of tea here first."
From that tone, people from the Song family and Peng family were not very welcome.
Mrs. Chen hurriedly said: "The third wife and I are taking the little girl with us. The old An arranges this way, and he is thoughtful and considerate. It just so happens that I can still talk to the third wife."
Mrs. Yang San also nodded, smiled and said to Mrs. Ji: "Old An has so many guests here, he must be very busy. We are not outsiders, so you don't need to worry about us. I will talk to Mrs. Yu. Speaking of which, I came to Lin'an once with my father when I was young, this is the second time, I heard that Mrs. Yu's dim sum is good, and I just want to ask Mrs. Yu for advice!"
She stepped down the steps for the Pei family and Mrs. Ji, and Mrs. Ji was naturally grateful and had a good impression of her. She not only said a lot of compliments to Mrs. Yang San, but also personally poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Yang San and Mrs. Chen. , left the little maid to serve here, and then left the waiter.
Mrs. Yang San really exchanged tips on making dim sum with Mrs. Chen.
From what Mrs. Yang San said, it can be seen that she is from a good background, has been to many places, and has a lot of experience in talking about dim sum in the north and south. Mrs. Chen also wanted to ask Mrs. Yang San for advice, and the two talked enthusiastically and laughed constantly.
Yu Tang was a little better, being forced to make snacks by Mrs. Chen, she could still understand.
Ms. Xu probably has never done these things before. It was like listening to a book from heaven. At the beginning, she could sit upright patiently. After a long time, she began to move around, like a child.
Yu Tang pursed his lips and smiled.
Miss Xu didn't take it seriously, and took a chance to lean into her ear and said, "Shall we go to the official room?"
Yu Tang almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Miss Xu gave her an unhappy look.
Yu Tang felt that he shouldn't have laughed at Miss Xu, so he quickly agreed to accompany her to the official room.
Her eyes lit up immediately, and she carefully asked Mrs. Yang San for leave.
Mrs. Yang San glanced at Miss Xu with a half-smile, and agreed, but called the woman beside her to accompany Miss Xu and Yu Tang to the official room, and said to the woman: "Your eyes are bright, don't touch them." To people who shouldn't be met."
The old lady hurriedly bowed and answered "Yes".
Miss Xu pulled Yu Tang out of the waiter.
Standing under the eaves, she took a long breath, and whispered to Yu Tang: "You can sit still, but I can't. Let me sit like this for a long time, and I will kill half my life." After she finished speaking , and asked the woman, "Do you know what the second Miss Pei is doing? It would be great if I could find her out and play for a while." She said the last sentence to Yu Tang.
The woman should be very aware of Miss Xu's temper, before Yu Tang could answer, she said, "Second Miss Pei was called by Lao An to meet the elders of the Song family and Peng family. When she can come out, Miss Biao should I'm going to see Lao An too."
Miss Xu was very disappointed.
Yu Tang asked her: "Then do we still have to go to the official room?"
Miss Xu hesitated and said, "The official room here must be very smelly, right?"
The woman replied: "How about Miss Biao follow me to the back yard? There are a lot of sweet-scented osmanthus trees planted in the back yard. It's a pity it's not autumn, otherwise the sweet-scented osmanthus must be fragrant and very beautiful."
Miss Xu's interest faded, and she said, "Forget it, I'd better sit under the camphor tree over there with Sister Yu for a while."
It was only then that Yu Tang discovered that there was a thick camphor tree in the main room on the north side of the courtyard where Mr. Pei lived and the side room on the east side, and there was a long bamboo bench under the tree.
The woman smiled and said, "Miss Biao and Miss Yu wait for me for a while, I will send someone to bring some cotton cushions. Although it is spring, it is still a little cold to sit on this bamboo stool."
Miss Xu hurriedly urged her to get it, and then invited Yu Tang to go over: "It's too conspicuous for us to stand here, why don't we go there and wait."
A very experienced look.
Yu Tang smiled, but as soon as he and Miss Xu stood still under the camphor tree, he saw Mrs. Pei angrily coming out of Mrs. Pei's hall, followed by Aunt Chen who looked anxious.
