Pei Yan glanced at Yu Tang quickly when he heard the words, and said in a deep thought: "I'd better go with my second sister-in-law, so I can have someone to take care of me on the way. Besides, I want Mrs. Yu to go to the capital with me. She didn't leave the court. I got along well with Yin Mingyuan's family before, and taking advantage of this opportunity to go to the capital, let Yin Mingyuan's family take her around, which is much better than exchanging letters like this. When she comes back, she will take care of the household chores, and will never go out casually again."
Yu Tang was very surprised.
Going to the capital, do you take her with you
She couldn't help but look towards Pei Lao'an.
Coincidentally, Mr. Pei Lao'an also looked at her.
The eyes of the two collided in the air.
Pei Lao'an smiled.
The little girl was full of panic and uneasiness. She probably didn't think that Pei Yan would take her with her, and she was afraid that she would not agree, and she was even more afraid that she would be unhappy because of it
Pei Lao'an's heart softened.
She is still a little girl who has never seen the world, so it is good to go out for a walk.
Not to mention the heart and soul of his own son.
Thinking of this, Pei Lao'an took a look at Pei Yan.
It is false to say that you know the world, but it is true that you want to bring your wife by your side
Not to mention anything else, just say that before and after the Lantern Festival, I take it with me wherever I go, and pretend that others don't know about it.
"Then go together!" Mr. Pei Lao'an simply said, "Bring more clothes and jewelry. It's the first time for our family's wife to go to the capital to visit the mistresses of those aristocratic families. .”
Pei Yan smiled and smiled at Yu Tang.
Yu Tang lowered his head in embarrassment, and was very grateful to Pei Lao'an.
She really met a good mother-in-law.
Even if it is not compared with the previous life, looking at the people around her, the mother-in-law was not very happy after going back to her natal family a few more times. How many of them can follow her husband to Beijing all the way away like her
Yu Tang respectfully gave Pei Lao'an a blessing and said "yes".
And so the matter was settled.
Fortunately, before Pei Yan was planning to take Yu Tang to Jiangxi, Pei Man was already preparing for the trip. Although the itinerary was changed at this time, it was not in a hurry, but some things needed to be rescheduled by Pei Yan, for example, Pei Man had to stay at Pei's house to preside over the overall situation.
Pei Yan decided to take Hu Xing to the capital.
Hu Xing was so happy that his eyes narrowed, and he felt that his good luck started from helping Yu's family. Before Yu Tang could go back to his mother's house to say goodbye, he first came to find Yu Wen with two bottles of wine.
Yu Wen was also very happy knowing that his daughter was going to the capital with his son-in-law. He drank with Hu Xing in the middle of the night, and kept asking Hu Xing to take care of his daughter: "When you come back, I will treat you to a drink."
In the past, when Yu Wen was just an ordinary scholar in Lin'an, Hu Xing dared to answer such words. Now that Yu Wen has become Pei Yan's father-in-law, and Yu Tang is still so favored, how could Hu Xing dare to answer such words? Please, I must be the one to invite you."
He flattered Yu Wen for a long time before returning to Pei's house drunk.
But as soon as he entered the house, his wife slapped him awake from the wine.
His wife twisted his ears and said, "Where did you go to drink again? The eldest wife started a quarrel and asked the third master to take the eldest son to the capital together! The old lady was so angry that she spoke, not only made the third The master took the eldest son to the capital, and also asked the eldest and youngest mistress to go to the capital. He also said that if they want to come back, they can come back, and if they don’t want to come back, they can stay in the capital. However, if they stay in the capital, they can live in the Yang family. Capital The house in the village is only for people from the Pei family to live in."
Hu Xing was so frightened that he was sober.
The meaning of Lao An's words is that if Pei Tong went to the capital this time, wouldn't he be recognized as a descendant of the Pei family
He immediately asked, "What did the eldest lady say?"
Hu Xing's wife slapped her lips and said, "What else can I say! She knows that Old An loves her children and grandchildren, and she is not afraid that Old An will drive the young master out. But the third master also said, let them take Let's go together, where to live, we will talk about it when we enter Beijing. After persuading the old man for a long time, the old man turned off the fire, and calmly went to talk with the young master. Tomorrow, the young master and the young mistress will have a reconciliation You go to the capital together, you have to be careful on the way, don't hug the wrong thigh!"
"I know, I know!" Hu Xing pondered in his heart, while perfunctory his wife, "I didn't stand in the room of the old man when the old man went, and one servant did not serve two masters. Mr. Zhan. Your words are completely redundant. But I really have to be careful... "
It's safer to stick to Yu Tang's iron rice bowl - although he won't make a lot of money, nothing will happen to him either.
Hu Xing made up his mind, and the next day he personally went to urge the boys to move the boxes and cages of Shuyu Mountain House, and then he found that the third wife respected the second wife's appearance, so he also moved the second wife's box and cage to the boat.
The second wife was very happy to know that Yu Tang was going out to the capital with her, but she said regretfully there: "The boat doesn't stop at Jinling, otherwise, you can go to my natal family to play for a few days. My natal family has nothing else, there is a house It is very famous, planted a hundred wisterias, and when they bloom, they are like clouds and mist, like a fairyland. We set off at this time, and when we arrived in Jinling, we happened to meet the flowering period."
The matter in the capital is imminent. Last night, Pei Yan discussed with the stewards at home in the middle of the night, and went to Mr. Chen's place early in the morning, thinking about saying goodbye to the two elders of the Yu family. If it wasn't for her father and mother thinking that Pei Yan had neglected them, she would have gone back by herself.
Yu Tang took the second wife's hand and said with a smile: "There will definitely be opportunities in the future. The itinerary was decided too hastily, and I really don't have time to visit the master and wife."
The second wife also knew it, but it was a pity, when the two were talking, Pei Yan hurried over.
Yu Tang hastily resigned from his second wife and went to Yu's house to bid farewell to the elders in the family.
Yu Wen knew the news long ago, and Mrs. Chen was also happy for her daughter. The atmosphere was not sad, but Mrs. Chen told her daughter in a low voice: "It should be like this. It's not good for you to separate when you just got married. You have to work harder. Try to get pregnant as soon as possible.”
Yu Tang blushed unbearably.
She was like this if she didn't "work hard", but if she "worked hard"... She felt her teeth hurt when she thought about the scene.
or farewell.
Neither of them stayed at Yu's house for a meal before returning to Pei's house.
Pei Tong has hurriedly packed his luggage, waiting for Pei Yan to come back.
Seeing Pei Yan and his wife, he immediately came forward to salute, and said apologetically to Pei Yan: "Third uncle, my mother is too persistent, I can go to the capital to visit my grandfather and uncles, so that grandfather Rest assured with my uncles, and ease my mother's anxiety."
Pei Yan didn't want to hear it.
What his sister-in-law thinks has nothing to do with him. If Pei Tong is obedient, he will continue to recognize this nephew. If Pei Tong has any ideas, he will take this opportunity to speak clearly.
He didn't want to raise a white-eyed wolf with money from the Pei family's connections.
He said: "Then you go and resign your mother, we say hello to the old An, and then we set off."
It's already noon!
Pei Tong was stunned and said, "Should we leave without lunch?"
"No need." Pei Yan said, "We have to get out of Hangzhou City before the waterway is closed at night."
Otherwise, you will spend the night in Hangzhou city.
Pei Tong said "Oh" and hurried to see the eldest wife.
Pei Yan and his wife don't know what the eldest wife confessed. When Pei Tong and his wife arrived, they went to see Pei Lao'an together.
Pei Lao'an was heartbroken, but he didn't show it on his face, he simply told Pei Yan to "take good care of Yu Shi and A Tong", then stood up and wanted to send them to the gate in person.
How many years will this go
Pei Yan supported Pei Lao'an, and everyone surrounded them and went to the gate.
Because it was not the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there was no need to worship the ancestors, the Pei family still only opened the side door on the side today.
When they arrived, people from the other rooms of Pei's house either came in person or sent someone to see them off.
Pei Yan explained again, especially Pei Chan and Pei Bo, let them study hard and try to meet each other in the capital next year, so they got on a mule cart and went to Tiaoxi Wharf, set sail and headed for Hangzhou City.
Pei Yan and his wife lived in the main cabin of the big ship, the second wife and his family lived in the left cabin, Pei Tong and his wife lived on their right side, and Mr. Chen arranged to live on the right side of Pei Tong and his wife.
I was used to living in a big mansion before, but Yu Tang is not used to being so close now.
On the contrary, the Fifth Miss of the Pei family, Pei Dan and her younger brother Pei Hong, were extremely excited to see their father in a few days. Pei Hong ran to find Pei Qi, and Fifth Miss ran to Yu Tang's place to visit.
"I saw third uncle and that Mr. Chen talking on the side of the boat, so I came to see you." With red cheeks, she happily brought a basket of oranges and said to Yu Tang, "I invite you to eat oranges."
Because the second wife has already set the itinerary, unlike Yu Tang and the others, the snacks and cakes they eat on the way are all prepared temporarily, and the fruits on her side are more than Yu Tang's.
These oranges are tangerines sent by the Changsha mansion, and they were rewarded by Pei Lao'an years ago. Yu Tang had already finished eating them, but the second wife kept them for eating on the way.
She just took one, peeled off the orange peel and shared half of Miss Fifth, and said with a smile: "You take it to me, what do you eat?"
"Isn't delicious food just for everyone to eat together?" Fifth Miss didn't care, and smiled, "Besides, after eating this, I still have fragrant pears."
Yu Tang brought a lot of snacks here, so he asked someone to bring some snacks for Miss Wu to choose: "What do you like to eat?"
Miss Wu was not polite, she picked four or five kinds of candied fruit and seven or eight kinds of pastries before giving up, and asked Yu Tang, "Where did Third Aunt get this candy, it's better than what I usually eat."
Yu Tang didn't know either, and said with a smile, "You have to ask Qing Yuan. If you like it, I'll let her pay attention and send some to Shandong."
Fifth Miss nodded again and again, and said, "It's more delicious than the ones I bought before, and it must be from the capital."
"Then you should bring more." Yu Tang packed another box for her.
The two were chatting and laughing, and their voices would inevitably reach Gu Xi.
He Xiang looked at the gloomy Gu Xi, and said cautiously: "Young Mistress, should we go over and say hello?"
Pei Tong went out.
He said that he wanted to take this opportunity to have a good talk with his third uncle, lest his third uncle misunderstand their purpose of going to the capital.
