The sweet and stable days always pass very quickly, as if in the blink of an eye, Yu Tang has been married to Pei's family for a month. The timing has also entered November, and every household is busy with Chinese New Year matters. Pei Lao'an called Yu Tang to help, and began to slowly hand over some of the money from Pei's mansion to Yu Tang.
Yu Tang has a previous life experience, although it is the first time he has encountered some things, but he adheres to the principle of following the precedent if there is a precedent, and referring to the convention if there is no precedent, he handles things in a decent way, even when he is praised by the brave old man. At that time, he was favored by Mr. Yong Laoan because he said humbly, "I also follow the rules." When he came to visit Mr. Pei, he said that Pei Yan was the right wife.
Pei Lao'an didn't show it on his face, but he was very happy in his heart.
In mid-November, when news came from the capital that Pei Xuan had filled the position of the chief envoy of Shandong, Mr. Pei Lao'an was even happier, and privately said to Aunt Chen: "It's true that the official in Beijing is good, but I can go to you at this time." With Ah Xuan's disposition, it is more suitable to serve in Shandong."
Pei Chan also talked about it with Pei Bo in private. He felt that the Pei family was still too conservative. Pei Bo didn't take it seriously, and said, "I think it's better to be conservative about this matter. Don't forget, there is a third uncle in our family. Even if he doesn't serve as an official, I'm afraid he is not such a stable person. Zhang's family The eldest son is gone. Although Zhou Shibo is very talented, he is not stable enough. It is not a big problem to be the assistant of the six departments or the servant of the six departments. In."
After finishing speaking, he shaved his hair with some worry, and muttered: "I'm afraid that the Zhang family is thinking of bringing the third uncle into the game and marrying our family. There should be no brothers and sisters of the same age as the Zhang family, right?"
Pei Chan laughed out loud when he heard this, and felt that Pei Bo was worrying unfoundedly, and said, "Even if the Zhang family is willing, it must be the third uncle's willingness, right? Our family has rules, neutrality, and not standing in line is fundamental."
Pei Bo cast a disdainful glance at Pei Chan, the look in his eyes was exactly the same as Pei Yan's: "This moment, that moment. The fire is on my own eyebrows, how can I remain neutral and not stand in line?"
Hearing this, Pei Chan hecked twice, thinking that this is not up to the two of them to decide, and it would be useless to say more here, so he changed the subject, raised his eyebrows at Pei Bo, and said, "Tell me, Will the third uncle leave Lin'an? I heard from the servant at home that the third uncle has been with the third aunt all this time. I didn't expect that the third uncle would be like this when he became a relative."
Pei Bo didn't want to say anything to Pei Chan, a fool. Hearing this, he said, "It's none of your business! You might as well study hard if you have this skill! Besides, are the third uncle and third aunt on good terms? There are no greedy people!"
"That's the only bad thing about you." Pei Chan also felt tired, and said, "Everything I tell you is serious."
Pei Bo didn't want to talk to him anymore.
Pei Chan had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye.
After leaving Pei Bo's study door, he saw Pei Jiang running into the house with a bag full of candy.
He immediately stopped Pei Jiang and asked him, "Where did you get the candy?"
Pei Jiang rolled his big eyes and said, "It was given by the third aunt. The second uncle became the chief envoy of Shandong, and the Zong Fang said that he would have a small celebration. There will be wine tomorrow."
At this time, these children will be released to play, and they don't have to do their homework.
Pei Chan teased Pei Jiang for a while before leaving.
Over there, Pei Yan was busy preparing things for the second elder brother to take office, while the second wife was packing the box for Shandong. Only the eldest wife held a black sable-haired muff, stood on the rockery in the back garden, looked at the courtyard to the east, and asked the close nurse: "Young master really said that?"
Pei Tong and Gu Xi are not young anymore. After Pei Yan got married, the Pei and Gu families began to agree on the date of the wedding. Originally, according to the eldest wife's wishes, it was best to set the wedding date in March next year, so she would have time to prepare, but The Gu family wanted to take advantage of Gu Chang's appointment years ago. In this way, the two families looked at many days, and the most suitable day was December 2, but the second Miss of the Pei family decided to leave the court on December 2... The Pei and Gu families looked at it for a long time, and finally chose December six days.
The eldest lady thought that the days when Pei Tong and Pei Yan got married were too close, and their marriage would inevitably lead to comparisons. Leaving aside seniority, Pei Tong was only a scholar, and Pei Yan was already a Jinshi. The people who came to congratulate and The wedding scene is different, Pei Tong must suffer, that's why he wants to hold the wedding in Hangzhou. Hold a smaller wedding, and only invite relatives who don't have five clothes at home and some old friends who have helped Pei You in the past to attend.
Of course Pei Lao'an was not happy.
What she didn't expect was that Pei Tong also disagreed.
The eldest wife's close nurse persuaded her: "I think the eldest son is right. The future will be long, so why should you fight for this day and night. As long as the eldest son studies hard, once he is named on the gold list, he will have a glorious life in the future. This incident made Lao An unhappy."
The eldest wife is not reconciled.
However, a message came from the Gu family, saying that Gu Chang was going to take his bride to the capital on the fourth day of the junior high school, and she would either continue to be awkward with Lao An, or follow Pei Tong's advice and get married first.
The eldest lady sighed, and said: "Then you should go to Gu's house in person and tell Miss Gu that she has been wronged by this matter, and I will definitely compensate her in the future."
The nanny was immediately overjoyed, but she didn't dare to show it in the slightest.
She was afraid that the eldest lady would change her mind after reading too much.
Nanny hurriedly told Pei Tong about it.
Pei Tong's hanging heart sank, and he urged the matchmaker to settle the date with the Gu family.
Now the Pei family is bustling again.
The eldest wife also showed a long-lost smile, especially when she received a letter from her natal family, saying that her natal sister-in-law had left for Lin'an to attend Pei Tong's wedding, she was even more happy to call the master of Yinlou to call her. Several pieces of jewelry, both worn by herself and given to her sister-in-law.
Yu Tang sent Li Zhi to invite Aunt Chen to come over and ask her what to do for Pei Tong's wedding ceremony.
Aunt Chen said with a warm smile: "You should discuss this matter with the second wife. Although you are a clan wife, but aside from this, you and the second wife are both aunts, so it should be the same. But I suggest you, just talk to you When you get married, the eldest wife will give you a gift of the same value. At most, you can add a gold bracelet or something. Because Master Zen and Master Bo have also reached the age of marriage, and the wedding date should be around here For one or two years, it’s not good to favor one or the other.”
Yu Tang nodded repeatedly, and went to the second wife's place.
The second wife planned that Yu Tang would not come to discuss her, so she went to discuss Yu Tang. Yu Tang came over and hit her in the arms, she said: "I'm preparing a set of red gold face. It's fine if you don't want to add jade pendants or something."
When Yu Tang went back, he told Pei Yan about this matter, and Pei Yan thought it was okay, so he asked Yu Tang to go to his storeroom to get it: "There should be many jade pendants with good water quality."
There must be nothing in Pei Yan's collection.
But if it is given to Pei Tong, it will be Gu Xi's.
Reluctant to part with it, Yu Tang asked the shopkeeper Tong to spend dozens of taels of silver to buy a piece of Xinyu, which is not bad, as a gift for meeting.
Pei Yan laughed at her for a while when she found out.
Yu Tang did not show any weakness, and said: "Even if your things are not mine, they are our children's things. Why should you give them to someone I don't like? No matter what you say, I am in charge of the inner house. I decide No, you are not allowed to interfere."
Pei Yan glanced at her stomach, nodded with a smile on her face, and said, "Indeed, indeed. Why should we give our family's things to others? You are right."
Although the two shared the same bed, it was the first time that they took a break from the evening business.
Because Yu Tang's childhood has come.
Of course she couldn't be pregnant.
Seeing Pei Yan like this, Yu Tang glared at him.
He looked at Yu Tang's lively and playful expression, but he was very satisfied in his heart.
That's how his wife should be, doing whatever she wants.
Yu Tang, the kitten, is getting wilder and wilder.
And the eyes are getting more and more energetic, and the spirit is getting more and more flying.
Pei Yan secretly rejoiced that she did not continue to hesitate and married Yu Tang like a risky one.
It can be seen that he still has eyesight.
Complacent, Pei Yan went to the accountant's room, still thinking about whether to give him some advice for Senior Brother Fei on the way.
The husband and wife are still harmonious and beautiful. In just a few decades, it is really not worthwhile to waste time on vindictiveness.
But what he never expected was that on that night, he received a funeral note from Fei's family.
Fei Zhiwen's wife passed away sixteen days ago.
And said that because Mrs. Fei left a will, everything was kept simple. So the Fei family didn't plan to hold a big funeral. According to Fei Zhiwen's intention, they just let all the family members know about it.
Pei Yan stood in the middle of the study and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
He came home late for his first supper.
Yu Tang was very worried, and personally served him a bowl of clam soup.
Pei Yan reluctantly drank a bowl, and talked to Yu Tang about Madam Fei's death at the dinner table.
Yu Tang didn't know anything about the Fei family, so he thought it was because Fei Zhiwen and Pei Yan had a very good personal relationship, and gave him some advice, saying: "Although the funeral is simple, we don't need to send someone to mourn, but you You can write a letter to Lord Fei to comfort him."
I'm afraid Mr. Fei needs more than just a few words of innocuous comfort at this time.
When it came to Fei Zhiwen's privacy, Pei Yan couldn't explain it to Yu Tang in detail, so he nodded perfunctorily, and decided to pretend he didn't know anything afterwards, and wrote a short letter to comfort Fei Zhiwen.
Who knows that at the end of the month, the Pei family is busy preparing to marry a girl and a wife. Zhang Ying, who is far away in the capital, wrote a letter to Pei Lao'an, hoping that Pei Lao'an can help him persuade Pei Yan to stay in the capital for a while. day.
It is said that Fei Zhiwen decided to retire because of his wife's death.
Now the only one who can persuade Fei Zhiwen is Pei Yan.
Of course Pei Lao'an didn't quite believe Zhang Ying's words.
Others don't know, but she does. Fei Zhiwen is 20 years older than Pei Yan, and he is also a proud master. He usually takes good care of Pei Yan for the sake of his classmates, but if he talks about his personal relationship with Pei Yan, after all, there is a gap in age. It may not be able to speak well.
Convincing Pei Yan to go to the capital is mostly because he wants Pei Yan to help the Zhang family and the others.
Pei Lao'an ignored the letter and happily married his grandniece and granddaughter-in-law.
