Chapter 220: Malingering

Views:

Yu Tang who returned to the wing room quickly calmed down his anger.

Originally, it was Pei Yan's efforts. Pei Yan must have her own considerations. She forced Pei Yan to deal with the Li family according to her ideas. Pei Yan was angry, which is understandable.

She is not someone from Pei Yan, why should Pei Yan take care of her emotions

On the contrary, she has received a lot of favors from Pei Yan, no matter what, she should repay the favor when it is time to repay the favor.

Yu Tang began to worry that the Pei family would suffer.

One of the reasons why the third prince dared to collect money in the south of the Yangtze River was that the emperor's heirs were difficult. He established three empresses and gave birth to seven princes. Only the second and third princes survived. Hearing the Taoist priest's words, the emperor felt that he was the fate of a lonely star, and it was not suitable to live with his children, and it was not appropriate to establish a heir early. Therefore, for so many years, the two princes have lived outside the palace, and the emperor has never appointed a prince. And although the second prince is the eldest son, he has no son, which inevitably makes many interested people want to move.

In the previous life, three years later, there was indeed a crisis - the emperor suddenly became seriously ill and was about to appoint a crown prince, but all the ministers in the court felt that the third prince had a smart grandson who was more suitable to be crowned crown prince. The third prince himself felt the same way. During the period when the emperor was seriously ill, he had secret meetings with foreign ministers many times in private, but the second prince obediently stood by the emperor's side to serve him. It turned out to be a false alarm, and the twenty-four yamen began to buy supplies for the national funeral. Unexpectedly, the emperor ate the "elixir" from the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain, and somehow healed.

Then lived for another four years.

The second prince became the final winner.

This incident will definitely have an impact on the Pei family.

Of course, the Pei family in the previous life also lived in peace and stability, with a lifespan longer than hers, but if Pei Yan could know the result in advance, he would definitely be more calm and determined, knowing what choice is best for the Pei family.

She has to tell Pei Yan about it.

But how did she tell Pei Yan

Said she was born again

She was afraid that Pei Yan would lock her up as a lunatic.

Or they thought she was bewitched by evil spirits and asked Taoist priests or monks to teach her how to do it.

Yu Tang was very distressed. He planned to copy Buddhist scriptures with his mother, but he couldn't calm down.

Mrs. Chen didn't know what she was worrying about, so she asked her: "What's wrong with you? If you don't want to copy Buddhist scriptures, then don't copy them. Mr. Pei is merciful and generous, so he won't care about these small things."

Yu Tang reluctantly nodded, still trying to recall the past life, hoping to find something to remind Pei Yan, so that she couldn't sleep at night, and when she woke up the next morning, she was stupefied and didn't say anything. When greeting Pei Lao'an, he almost bumped into Aunt Ji's body.

Mrs. Ji saw her as her own family, not only didn't blame her, but also helped her, and said with concern: "What's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable? If you don't feel well, don't come here. Mrs. Yang San said yesterday I felt a little unwell in the afternoon, and started to cough and have a fever when I returned home in the evening. Today, I sent my mother-in-law to report to the old An. Miss Xu also stayed in the wing to take care of Mrs. Yang San."

The implication is that she doesn't have to come.

Yu Tang was surprised.

When she broke up with Miss Xu yesterday, Miss Xu didn't say anything. Why was Mrs. Yang San sick early this morning

Seeing that there was no one around, Mrs. Ji whispered to her, "Today the Song family, Peng family, Wu family and some gentry from Lin'an will gather together, maybe Mrs. Yang San thinks it's too noisy."

Yu Tang was grateful for Mrs. Ji's protection, nodded slightly, and said "I see", after asking Mr. Pei's well-being, he pretended to cough a few times. Mrs. Pei was very nervous, and immediately asked What happened to her, and someone asked a doctor to come over and show her: "Don't be like Mrs. Yang San. I heard that you have been walking together these few days."

Chen was also a little worried, and took Yu Tang back to the wing.

Yu Tang hurriedly comforted Chen Shi: "I'm fine, I just don't want to deal with those rich and powerful families."

Chen felt that this was fine, but she was not satisfied with Yu Tang pretending to be sick.

Yu Tang said: "Isn't there nothing I can do? When the doctor comes over, he will know that I'm fine. I just want to find an excuse to stay in the wing."

At this point, Chen can only compromise.

The doctor came over to inquire about her and felt that she was fine, maybe because she was tired these days, so she prescribed some pills for invigorating Qi and nourishing the spirit, and Lizhi took her to write back to Pei Lao'an.

Feeling sorry, Mrs. Chen followed Lei Zhi to thank Mr. Pei. It's just that as soon as she left, Ah Fu came, saying that Ms. Xu had heard that she was in a bad health and wanted to come to visit her.

Yu Tang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and politely declined, but Miss Xu still ran over.

"Oh, you should take a good rest." She blinked at Yu Tang, "There are so many people outside, it's a mess, it's better to stay in your own room."

Yu Tang smiled and said yes.

Mrs. Chen came back and said: "Mr. Pei Lao'an heard that you are fine, so he was relieved, and let you rest in the house. Don't go there today, and we will talk about it at the lecture tomorrow."

Yu Tang nodded repeatedly.

Miss Xu pulled Chen's sleeve and said, "Can I let sister Yu accompany me? The third wife is not feeling well, and she rests most of the time. I'm bored by myself. Let sister Yu make a bed for me. with."

Mrs. Chen has always liked Miss Xu's cheerfulness and liveliness, so she agreed immediately, and told Yu Tang: "You stay with Miss Xu, don't run around, so as not to bump into the guests of the Pei family and embarrass the Pei family."

Yu Tang looked at Miss Xu who was smiling slyly, so she agreed. But on the way to Ms. Xu's residence, she turned her face directly and said, "Tell me the truth, what are you going to do? Otherwise, I will go to see Mrs. Pei. She is worried about my illness, so she invited me Doctor, I haven't thanked her in person yet!"

"Why are you so narrow-minded!" Ms. Xu said angrily, "I really just want you to be quiet and quiet. Don't be ignorant of good people. That young mistress of the Peng family likes to meddle in other people's business. Mrs. Pei Don't you think it's strange that she hasn't shown up all the time? It's said that the eldest wife of the Peng family used to be close friends with Mrs. Pei. She must be going to visit Mrs. Pei, and maybe she will say something unpleasant Why do you bother to get involved in their disputes?"

This is also what Yu Tang found strange. She said: "What's the matter with Mrs. Pei? She wants to leave the Pei family so wholeheartedly, and she looks like she wants to draw a line with the Pei family. Isn't she going to plan in the future?" Have you made the Eldest Young Master and the Second Young Master recognize the sect?"

Otherwise, no matter how hard Mrs. Pei draws a clear line with the Pei family, in the eyes of others, they can't write two words of Pei in one stroke, and they are still a family. What's the point of doing this

Miss Xu chuckled and said, "You still can't leave me, right?"

Yu Tang glanced at Miss Xu, and said coldly: "I'm not planning to leave Lin'an City, so does it matter to you?"

Ms. Xu was discouraged, but she still couldn't help telling Yu Tang about Mrs. Pei: "Her father relied on his Yue's family to make his fortune, so their family is closer to the mother's family, and Mrs. Pei is also like this. She always feels that her mother's family is closer to her husband's family. , I feel that my natal family is more powerful than my husband’s family, and Pei Lao’an is not someone who can be fooled at will, so the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is very tense. Let me tell you, Pei Xiaguang is right. The uncle of the Pei family has passed away. It's very chaotic again. At this time, the Pei family should keep a low profile and act low-key, instead of rushing to catch up and urge the children to take the exam. Mr. Pei has offended many people in his previous life, and his death is like a lamp. Everyone will not pursue some things, but if these future generations do not give in at all, and want to compete with those people forcefully, why don't they kill the roots? Do you want to give you a chance to be born again! So It is said that Mrs. Pei's family style is not good, and her behavior is also very radical.

And the Pei family is not like the Yang family.

The Yang family has no foundation, and if they don't take the opportunity to work hard, their family will have no place in the future.

The Pei family has been rich for several generations, and now there are still three masters who are famous, so there is no need to be so anxious. "

Yu Tang felt that what Miss Xu said made sense.

Miss Xu said again: "That's why I said that it was wrong for her to put the child's fame first at this time. Instead of having the time and effort, it is better for the two young masters to establish a good relationship with a few uncles. After all, the uncle's family The relationship is there, even if you don't move around, it will not be broken if the old man and the old lady are there. The uncles are different. The two young masters did not grow up in the Pei family, and they are not the most potential of the Pei family. Son, father is gone, mother is not seen, why should those uncles and brothers take care of them?"

Yu Tang said: "Who is the most potential child of the Pei family?"

"Pei Chan, Pei Bo!" Ms. Xu said without thinking, "Pei Chan's mother, like Pei Lao'an, belongs to the Qian family in Qiantang, and Pei Bo's mother and the second wife's mother are cousins. They are from the Jin family in Jinling. Needless to say, the Qian family is also the home of farming and studying for generations. In the early years, when our Xu family was still in Jinling, the two families were married. I have an uncle whose surname is Jin. But Later, the Jin family was not very prosperous, so they gradually lessened. Pei Bo is also very good at reading, but the Pei family keeps a low profile and doesn't make much publicity."

Yu Tang didn't know if Pei Bo was strong or not, but she knew that Pei Chan and Pei Tong passed the Jinshi examination five years later.

At least it proves that Miss Xu is not talking nonsense.

The two came to the wing room where Miss Xu and Mrs. Yang San lived.

Mrs. Yang San, with a red face and delicate makeup, met Yu Tang.

Yu Tang couldn't help being a little surprised.

Even if Mrs. Yang San is pretending, she still has to act like this. She is completely acting like she is not afraid of being known by others, which is too... a bit arrogant!

Mrs. Yang San seemed to see her thoughts, and said with a smile: "If you don't tell the truth, there will be no one who is not human. I don't want to trouble, so I don't hate others!"

Such an upright manner of acting made Yu Tang feel refreshed, and he was enlightened and longing for it.

Her heart suddenly settled down.

After leaving Mrs. Yang San's wing, Yu Tang went to Miss Xu's inner room.

Miss Xu pulled her to look at her scented dew: "The other day I asked you to choose a few flavors, but this matter and that matter delayed this important matter. You can see which flavor you like or which flavor you like. Which bottle, I will give you."
