Yu Tang was really too afraid that the old things would happen again and get involved with the Li family again, and she didn't want to spoil Ma Xiuniang's interest, so she quietly recruited A Shao: "Go back and tell my mother that Mrs. Li lied. Before returning home, no matter what, you can't promise anything to the Li family."
A Shao is a little confused, but today Yu Tang came to see the second young master of the Li family, and he had a conversation with the second young master of the Li family just now, and Yu Tang asked him to report the letter before he got home, presumably this matter is very important , hurriedly responded, and ran down the mountain in a hurry.
Yu Tang felt at ease in his heart, and only then was he in the mood to accompany Ma Xiuniang to wash pen fountain.
But Ma Xiuniang began to feel a little suspicious in her heart, and said: "Did the second young master of the Li family say something inappropriate? I just heard them yelling!"
In her heart, such a man's character is absolutely unacceptable, no matter how good his family background is, no matter how handsome he is, he cannot accept it.
In the two lifetimes, Li Jun did not do anything wrong to Yu Tang, and Yu Tang could not wrong him just because he was a child of the Li family.
She said, "That's not true. It's just that I don't like to grow up like him."
Ma Xiuniang felt a little pity, and said: "Then there is no other way. It's like vegetables and radishes, each has its own love. You can't force it."
The more Yu Tang gets along with Ma Xiuniang, the more she feels that she is transparent and considerate, a rare person to befriend.
She took Ma Xiuniang's arm with a smile, called "sister" affectionately, and talked about the topic she was interested in: "Have you and Mr. Zhang's wedding date been set? When the time comes, you will have to make furniture and make an appointment." Cake, please Quanfu people, is it too late?"
"It's too late!" Ma Xiuniang was indeed distracted, and she talked about her own business happily, "For furniture and so on, my mother made two camphor wood boxes for me before, and for the rest, let's focus on it first." As for the Zhang family, you count as much as you have..."
The two were talking, and soon arrived at the Brush Washing Spring.
Xibi Spring is a small spring. Below the spring is a small depression that is half hidden in the rocks and half exposed. It is no more than three feet wide and no deeper than two knees. What kind of species is it, but the crown of the tree is like an umbrella, lowly covering the puddles, and unknown grass leaves fall on the water.
Seven or eight women were drawing water around the small puddle.
Zhang Hui and her servant stood far away beside a large lying bluestone, and saw their eyes lit up.
Ma Xiuniang pursed her lips and smiled.
The two of them didn't say a word, but their brows and eyes were full of joy, which made people feel happy just looking at them.
Yu Tang saw that the mountain road leading to Xibi Spring was still winding upwards, as if it could be climbed, he couldn't help but smiled and asked Ma Xiuniang in a low voice: "Do you want to go climbing? Me and the magpie will rest here for a while, drink some water before Walk."
Ma Xiuniang blushed and said in a low voice, "You can go climbing with us."
Yu Tang shook his head again and again, and said, "I'm tired from walking, I want to rest here!"
Naturally, Ma Xiuniang couldn't leave her alone, what else was there to say, Yu Tang said: "I just met the second young master of the Li family, I want to be quiet for a while, and think about what to do in the future."
Ma Xiuniang thought about it, too, so she couldn't persuade her anymore, so she told the magpie a few words, seeing that the number of people coming to fetch water gradually decreased, so she gave Zhang Hui a look, and went up the mountain first.
Zhang Hui didn't know what happened, so she glanced at Yu Tang curiously, and waited for Ma Xiuniang to walk a certain distance before following her.
Yu Tang was really thinking about what to do in the future.
The matter of the Li family must be investigated clearly, otherwise even if she recruited her son-in-law at home, it would be very easy for the Li family to deal with their family.
She had seen the methods of the Li family in her previous life.
For some reason, Yu Tang suddenly thought of Master Pei San.
She suddenly felt that she was not entirely right in thinking so.
If they asked the Pei family for protection, the Li family would not dare to deal with them casually.
The problem lies in the word "random".
Why did the Pei family fight against the Li family for their family
How important is what the Lin family is looking for to the Li family? Will the Li family prefer to fight against the Pei family because of this
Thinking of these, Yu Tang became a little irritable.
Why does their family have to rely on the Pei family or obey the Li family
After all, their family is still not strong enough.
But their family members are weak, it's too late for the big brother to study at this time!
After all, distant water cannot quench near thirst.
So is there a second way to go
Continue to do business and move out of Lin'an
There are more dignitaries and dignitaries in Hangzhou Mansion, and they are outsiders, so it is difficult to get protection from aristocratic families. It is better to be in Lin'an, at least surrounded by folks who know the basics, and the Yu family has always been kind to others. Help.
In her previous life, after her parents passed away, she had received a lot of help from them.
Why!
It's really hard to go left and right.
If Master Pei San encounters such a thing, I wonder how he will get out of the siege
Yu Tang rested his chin and worried.
Magpie saw her sitting there quietly for almost two quarters of an hour without saying a word, a little bored, so she plucked branches nearby to make a corolla for fun.
Someone came to fetch water again.
Yu Tang glanced casually.
He was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, with combed horns, wearing a green lotus-colored hang silk Taoist gown, holding a small wooden bucket in his arms, with a round, powdery face, very pleasing to the eye.
Sensing Yu Tang's gaze, he gave Yu Tang a curious look, and then showed a surprised expression, without moving his eyes for a long while.
Yu Tang saw that there was no one around, and the boy was very cute, so he teased him with a smile: "You know me?"
As if frightened, the boy shook his head quickly, not daring to look at her anymore, and turned to fetch water.
Yu Tang looked funny, and his mood became lighter.
While fetching water, the boy secretly peeped at her, as if she was a big tiger who could eat him with just opening his mouth, which was very amusing.
Yu Tang said: "What are you going to do?"
Although the wooden barrel in the boy's arms is small, it looks like it can hold four or five catties of water. The boy is still young, so it's fine for a short time. What's more, this boy is dressed like a rich and noble family, but he is doing the work of a servant. He must be a book boy raised by some gentleman, and this family is not only very rich, but also very friendly to the servants around him. The facial expression will not be so lively.
She felt that eight or nine out of ten the boy came to play in the temple with the master of the family.
The boy thought for a while, then said shyly: "It's the abbot, I want to make tea. My master asked me to fetch water."
With the servants at home dressed like this, it is normal for the abbot of Zhaoming Temple to receive him personally.
Yu Tang smiled and said: "I only heard that drinking this spring water can improve eyesight and clear lungs, but I don't know that it can also make tea. Is it good to make tea?"
The boy laughed and said: "It's not good! But the abbot said that drinking tea is a sign of ambition. Our master is annoyed that others are so arty. I don't want to argue with him, so I let him go. Anyway, our master doesn't drink it. .”
Yu Tang was taken aback for a moment, and actually commented on the abbot of Zhaoming Temple in this way... She thought the master of the boy's family was very interesting, so she laughed.
The boy also laughed when he saw it, as if he was getting closer to Yu Tang.
He put the half-filled small wooden barrel on the bluestone next to him, half complaining and half proudly said: "It's true! Our master said that the best spring in the world, the old snow water, is all Some scribes with nothing to do to fool people, no matter what kind of water it is, it can be used for a few days. Our master also said that his old man had a brother who bought a boat, parked in the middle of the river in the middle of the night, and sneaked into it. Sanzhang Jiangxia fetched a bucket of water to make tea and drink, and what spring, summer, autumn and winter should be divided
Yu Tang laughed loudly, gave the boy a thumbs up, and said: "Your master is a real celebrity, with a strong Wei and Jin style."
Hearing this, the boy showed a proud expression, hugged the small wooden bucket and said: "The presiding master and our master are still waiting for my water, I'll go first."
Yu Tang waved at him and said, "Slow down, be careful not to fall."
The boy nodded obediently and asked her: "Why are you here alone? Or, after I send the water back, tell our master that I will accompany you, and I will leave when your family members come over?"
"No need!" Yu Tang pointed to the magpie in the distance, "I'm just here to rest!"
The boy let out a sigh of relief, smiled and said goodbye to her, and left with the small wooden barrel in his arms.
Yu Tang continued to think about the Li family.
If you don't rely on others, how can you get rid of the Li family
Are there any people or things that the Li family can use
She slowly recalled what happened after she married into the Li family in her previous life.
The Li family later made their fortune by doing maritime business. Different from the people in Lin'an Prefecture, the people in Lin'an Prefecture found their connections in Hangzhou when they did shipping business, but the Li family found their connections in Fujian, and it was Lin's natal family who led the way. The Li family's methods began to be fierce, and it was also after they became rich, had money as courage, and official positions as umbrellas. It's all things that haven't happened now, and they can't be used as excuses at all.
Of course, there is another thing that can be used, which is Li Duan's coveting of her.
But this is disgusting.
She would rather die than take advantage of this.
Thinking of this, her eyes brightened.
What about Li Jun
What if Li Jun is used
For example, Li Jun passed away unexpectedly in his previous life.
What if she rescued Li Jun and asked Li Jun to swear that she would not marry her and not make enemies of the Yu family
The more Yu Tang thought about it, the more he felt that this was feasible.
The biggest problem is to dispel Li Jun's interest in her.
Then you have to explicitly reject Li Jun first, or make a marriage arrangement as quickly as possible. Then arrange for her fiancé to rescue Li Jun.
Friend's wife, he must not be easy to bully!
Yu Tang felt that once the gloom of the past few days dissipated, his mood became better.
Ultimately, though, you have to be self-reliant.
It's just that she has no idea now, so she can only think slowly.
Yu Tang made up his mind, went to find Magpie, and made some flower crowns with her.
When Ma Xiuniang and Zhang Hui came back, she gave Ma Xiuniang several flower crowns.
In order to avoid Li Jun and others, they did not eat fast at Zhaoming Temple, but bought a few boxes of vegetarian snacks unique to Zhaoming Temple, and borrowed a secluded corner in a roadside restaurant in Mituo Village, and ate their own dry food , When Ah Shao came to pick him up, they went back home.
