Delicate Flower Chapter 27: Chances

For a time, everyone in Qingzhu Lane knew that the Yu family was about to get married to the Wei family.

But before Mrs. Chen could wait for the matchmaker to come to Wei's house formally with the marriage proposal gift, Mrs. Tang arrived first.

She complained as soon as she entered the door: "Didn't I tell you to wait? Why are you so impatient. Looking at the entire Lin'an City, who can compare with the Li family and the second young master of the Li family. You But you can’t be so short-sighted. There are a few good people who are willing to be someone’s son-in-law.”

These words made Mrs. Chen feel angry, and she became rude in her words.

Mrs. Chen drank tea slowly and said calmly: "It depends on the family. Our girls are so lucky. No matter how good the Li family is, you made us wait before, wasn't it because of Li Are we also considering asking their second young master to be our son-in-law? But the Li family is not as sincere as the Wei family, and the Wei family has rushed ahead of them. How can Mrs. Tang say that the Wei family is not as good as the Li family?"

Mrs. Tang choked.

Ms. Chen continued: "Mrs. Tang must not know yet, right? Our two families are planning to finalize the marriage before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Then we will invite Mrs. Tang to have a drink and ask Mrs. Tang not to refuse."

Mrs. Tang left in disgrace.

Ms. Chen said "poof" at her back and told Mrs. Chen: "Throw away the teacup she drank from."

Mr. Chen smiled and said, "Why are you so angry? Even if it is an old tea cup, it is still worth a few coppers. Why not stay at home and wait for beggars to pass by our house to ask for water, and you can also hold the tea cup."

Ms. Chen sneered and said: "If you use it for beggars, you will bury others."

Mother Chen laughed.

Ms. Chen went to urge Yu Tang to embroider the shoe uppers without saying anything.

Mrs. Lin was so angry after receiving Mrs. Tang's reply that she wanted to just yell about it, but she thought about her youngest son who was still making trouble at home and her mother-in-law who called her over and scolded her. He was speechless and said: "This Yu family is too, too ignorant of praise."

Mrs. Tang thought the matter was over like this. She breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time she felt a bit of the same enemy as Mrs. Lin, saying: "Isn't that right? Then Mrs. Chen is even more arrogant. Isn't that right? Have you given birth to a daughter? She looks down on one and the other just because she has some color. She loves her when her beauty fades. She is not afraid that the son-in-law who comes to her house will be disobedient one day..."

Who would have thought that Mrs. Lin turned her back and said, "It's not like taking a concubine? What's wrong with sex?"

Mrs. Tang felt bored, thinking that none of the ladies in the Pei family had spoiled her face like this, and she felt a little unhappy. She said a few words and left.

As for the Yu family, Yu Wen invited a few more people to inquire. They all said that the Wei family had a good family tradition and that the families helped each other. Wei Xiaoshan was a loyal and filial person. Yu Wen felt relieved. Mrs. Chen discussed the marriage between the two families: "Since the Wei family has promoted our family in this way, we must not let the Wei family lose face. There is no need for him to bring anything here. When we get engaged, we will take one hundred taels of silver and two pigs. Ten jars of Jinhua wine, a load of tea, a load of rice, and clothes for the four seasons are all ready for you. In short, you can’t let others find any faults."

Ms. Chen said with some embarrassment: "One hundred taels of silver? We still need to decorate the new house, and we also need to add some jewelry to Ah Tang..."

It is still a bit difficult to take it out in one go.

Yu Wen said with a smile: "I have already made an agreement with shopkeeper Tong. He will lend me sixty taels of silver, with six cents of interest, and I can pay it back in one year. Don't worry. I know all these things, so just go ahead and do it." Just do it."

Mr. Chen said happily: "Shopkeeper Tong has been of great help this time. Does he have any grandchildren? If he does, I will make some clothes for their grandchildren."

"Not yet!" Yu Wen said, "He is worried about this matter! If you are free, you can talk to Mrs. Tong - didn't you often go to temples before? See if there is any temple If it works, let Mrs. Tong also go and pay her respects."

Ms. Chen hesitated and said: "If you want to talk about efficacious results, it must be Lingyin Temple. But Lingyin Temple is a bit far away..."

Yu Wen smiled and said, "What's the point? When our Ah Tang gets married, you'll be fine, so go with Mrs. Tong. You can also ask our Ah Tang for an autograph or something."

Ms. Chen suddenly came over in high spirits, talking to Yu Wen about the delicious food in Hangzhou, and said, "You will go there when the time comes, and Ah Tang will go too. Our family will treat it as a trip to Hangzhou city."

Seeing his wife in such a good mood, Yu Wen nodded repeatedly and really thought about it in his heart.

Unexpectedly, when the matchmaker from the Wei family was supposed to come to the door, the matchmaker from the Wei family did not come.

Ms. Chen was secretly anxious and wanted A Tiao to go and inquire, but she was afraid of exposing her traces and making people think that the Yu family was in a hurry to marry their daughter. Yu Yutang had a bad reputation and could only hang around at home, but she couldn't. Let others know.

" They said they would come today, but they didn’t say whether it would be in the morning or afternoon. The Wei family is four or five miles away from us. If something delays us, it would be noon when we arrive at our house. Why don’t others come to our house for a meal? ? For people in the countryside, rice is expensive, so it’s easy not to eat at other people’s houses.”

Ms. Chen smiled reluctantly and said weakly: "Having said that, shouldn't I get ready early and go out before dawn? I didn't come until the afternoon..."

Shows lack of sincerity.

The couple were talking, and Wang, who came to help entertain the guests, came over.

She was startled when she saw that the house was deserted, and hurriedly said: "What? The matchmaker from the Wei family didn't come?"

Ms. Chen shook his head with a sad face.

Wang's face sank and said: "This is not a problem. I will let Ayuan go and ask."

Mrs. Chen grabbed Mrs. Wang and said, "Let's wait a little longer! Maybe something has delayed us."

Wang had no choice but to give up, feeling very unhappy.

Of course, this matter could not be hidden from Yu Tang.

She was stunned for a moment, then felt relieved.

It felt like it would be okay if the marriage ended like this. She could continue to live such a brisk life for a few more years. I'm afraid that the elders in the family will be unhappy. After all, they also like each other, and the family is also very satisfied with Wei Xiaoshan.

She went to see Mrs. Chen and Ms. Wang, and when she saw them pretending to smile in front of her, she couldn't help but feel guilty for not taking it seriously. She hurriedly said: "Mom, eldest aunt, good things are hard to come by. Without the Wei family, Regarding the marriage, I can only say that we are not close enough, so you two don’t have to be sad.”

"You kid," Ms. Chen cheered up to appease Yu Tang, "stop interfering in adult matters. My mother knows what to do about your wedding. Just stay in the room and embroider the uppers." ." Then he drove her to the house to work as a female celebrity.

Yu Tang had no choice but to tell Shuangtao that if anyone from the Wei family came, they would report to her and let her know what went wrong in their marriage with the Wei family.

Shuangtao agreed with a grimace.

No one came to the Wei family until after noon.

And it was Wei Xiaoyuan, the eldest son of the Wei family, who came with the matchmaker.

He was still empty-handed, wearing plain clothes and a filial belt around his waist.

The Yu family members felt a little nervous.

Mr. Chen and Mrs. Wang muttered in the room: "Who is missing from the Wei family? Their family just wanted to marry our Ah Tang, will it involve Ah Tang?"

Wang made a quick decision: "Let's go and have a look!"

As a courtesy, Wei Xiaoyuan goes to see Yu Wen first.

Chen and Wang, including Yu Tang who had received the letter, were all listening outside Yu Wen's study.

"Uncle Yu," Wei Xiaoyuan said with red eyes and a sad face, "it is our Xiaoshan and Miss Yu who have no fate. Xiaoshan, Xiaoshan went fishing last night and did not come back. We only found out in the morning that he , he drowned!"

"Ah!" Yu Wen, who was about to give the Wei family a blow, shook his hand, and the tea cup fell to the ground with a clang, and the tea splashed onto his new fat-toed shoes.

"How could this happen?" He was furious, "Don't your family know that he is getting engaged? And he goes fishing? Is your family short of this little money?"

But in his heart he kept saying "It's over, it's over". Their Ah Tang had just discussed marriage with Wei Xiaoshan, and Wei Xiaoshan died. I'm afraid that this "Kefu" label will be pinned on their Ah Tang's head. .

The three eavesdroppers were also stunned.

Yu Wen's words were harsh and harsh. Wei Xiaoyuan had just lost his brother, and anyone else would have started a quarrel with Yu Wen. Not only did Wei Xiaoyuan not quarrel with Yu Wen, he didn't even say a harsh word. He endured his grief and said: "Uncle Yu, this matter is something wrong with our family. The reason why I came here at this time is because before I came, my father We discussed it for a long time, just because we were afraid of ruining Miss Yu's reputation. My father meant that if anyone asked, just say that the person who fell in love with Miss Yu was the third child in our family, but something like this happened to the second child in our family. We won't be able to discuss marriage with your family for a while. Your family just said that they can't wait and can find a better marriage for Miss Yu. At the beginning, we didn't decide whether to discuss marriage with the second oldest child or the third oldest child in our family. ”

"Ah!" This was another surprise.

Yu Wen was so shocked that he was speechless for a long time.

The three people eavesdropping outside the house, especially Chen and Wang, burst into tears.

"Such a nice family...such a nice child..." Mrs. Chen couldn't help but sob. ~IndoMTL.com~ Yu Tang also cried silently when he thought of Wei Xiaoshan's happy eyes when he looked at her.

Yu Wen and Wei Xiaoyuan came out after hearing the commotion and saw three people in tears. Yu Wen couldn't help but sigh heavily. He slowly recovered and said apologetically to Wei Xiaoyuan: "Just now It's because I didn't think carefully about what I said. Don't blame your uncle. Anyone who encounters such a thing will feel bad. You should also give more advice to your parents and take it easy. I will follow you to the house to check on her cousin. Go burn incense on the hill."

The Wei family is so reasonable and can take Yu Tang's reputation into consideration when they are suffering from the loss of their son. They should be grateful.

Wei Xiaoyuan was very surprised. He looked at Yu Tang who was crying and comforting his elders for a few times, and felt sad in his heart.

This is probably the end of love.

Xiaoshan knew that the Yu family also liked him, and he was so excited that he didn't know what to do.

Unexpectedly, such an accident happened.

How great it would be if these two people could become husband and wife!

However, Xiao Shan is gone, and the Yu family did not avoid him. Miss Yu even shed tears because of him. Xiao Shanquan knows that she will also be happy.

He wanted to comfort the Yu family, but Yu Wen patted him on the shoulder and said in a painful voice: "I'm going to change clothes right now, and someone will call A Yuan over, and you and I will go to your house. ."

Wei Xiaoshan glanced at Yu Tang hesitantly, wanting to tell Yu Tang about his younger brother, but then he thought, so what if Yu Tang knew? It's just more sad. If she lives well in the future, that's all. If she encounters bad times in the future, and always thinks about this failed marriage, won't it make her life uneasy in the future.

In the end, he said nothing, bowed solemnly to the female members of the Yu family, and left the door of the Yu family.
