Delicate Flower Chapter 142: Persuasion

"Ah!" Yu Tang said with joy on his face, "Really? Our peanut cake was sent to the backyard?"

That is to say, not only did Pei Yan find it delicious, he also let everyone in his family taste it.

Yu Wen nodded, smiling at the corner of his eyes and eyebrows, and said: "A Tiao is so clever that he even made a special trip to inquire about it. It is said that this is the first time that Mr. Pei San has sent food to the backyard since he took charge of the business."

Yu Tang said: "Then can we add peanut cake to everything we send to Pei's house in the future?"

In this way, it will save you a lot of trouble.

It’s really difficult to send things to Pei’s house that are both novel and sincere.

"Yeah!" Yu Wen was also very happy and said, "This is really better than the old. I know your mother's dim sum is good, but I didn't expect you to follow your mother and make such dim sum." Okay."

Yu Tang pursed his lips and smiled, not ready to explain the origin of this peanut cake to his father.

Let him misunderstand that it was her mother who taught her.

Yu Wen sighed: "Your mother's health is getting better and better, and our family is getting better and better."

Yu Tang responded "yes" with a smile, took Jiang Chao's gift list again, and said: "Our two families are different. Our female family members have received many favors from the Pei family, and they have followed the best path for the whole family. Mr. Jiang If you want to ask for help from the Pei family, they will follow the path recommended by Juxian, so the gifts will definitely be very different. If you ask me to give Mr. Jiang some advice, maybe a good thing will turn out to be bad! I think, if you want to give something as a gift, I’d better ask Jiang It’s good for the master to make his own decisions. However, I see that this gift list is so comprehensive that even if I were asked to draw it up, I couldn’t come up with a better gift list than this one.”

From Yu Wen's point of view, there is nothing wrong with this gift list. It was just Jiang Chao's request. He was afraid that there was something overlooked, so he took it to Yu Tang to see.

"Then I'll tell him this." Yu Wen took the gift list and went to Jiang Chao's place.

After hearing this, Jiang Chao smiled and thanked Yu Wen, but he was thinking in his heart that it turned out that the Yu family and the Pei family had a good connection with each other. No wonder they had to send small things like food. It can be seen that the friendship between the Yu family and the Pei family is extraordinary. Otherwise, they would not or would not have thought of finding a good way to get along with the Pei family.

He couldn't help but feel lucky that he thought Yu Wen was a scholar and didn't value money as much as Mr. Wu, so he chose the Yu family instead of the Wu family to settle down...

But by the time he really saw Pei Yan, it was already the end of August.

He waited for Pei Yan for almost half a month.

When Pei Yan saw him, he looked a little tired. It could be seen that Pei Yan said he would see him as soon as he came back and met him as soon as possible.

Jiang Chao glanced at the Yu family again.

Pei Yan likes to get straight to the point when speaking, not to mention Jiang Chao is not able to be tactful enough.

After Jiang Chao saluted Pei Yan, the two sat down separately. Pei Yan immediately said: "I heard that you want to see me, but for the case of the Wang family in Ningbo Prefecture? I have already sent someone to inquire about this case. . The son of the Wang family did commit a crime, and he was not unjustly accused. Although the people do not call the officials to justice, the case has been transferred to Dali Temple, and it may not be easy to overturn the case. If you come to me, I don't have much to do. ”

After hearing this, Jiang Chao smiled bitterly in his heart.

I'm afraid it's not that there's nothing we can do, but Jiang Chao isn't worth the effort of the Pei family to help reverse the case, right?

But he has received far more glares in his life than others imagined, and Pei Yan's slights are not worth mentioning to him.

He said respectfully: "I have also carefully inquired about Boss Wang's case. I know that the fault lies with the Wang family, and I dare not let Mr. Pei help him do something that confuses right and wrong. I came to see Mr. Pei for other matters. Seeking each other."

Pei Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Chao with a more serious look.

To be honest, he actually went to inquire about the case of the Wang family in Ningbo Prefecture. The prefect of Ningbo knew that this matter was related to their Pei family. At that time, he smiled bitterly and said that there was nothing he could do to go to Dali Temple to reverse the case. If Yan could bring the case back for a retrial, he would still be willing to do so.

Pei Yan feels that it is not difficult to call back for a retrial. The important thing is that the Wang family is also at fault.

He would not be happy if he was asked to help the Wang family reverse the case.

He even thought that at worst, he could supply the six thousand taels of silver to the Yu family privately.

It's just that things in Hangzhou Prefecture held him back, so he didn't have time to do it.

I never thought that Jiang Chao was really capable.

No matter what he wants to do next, at least this kind of rhetoric caught his attention, and he is a good talent.

Right now, he is short of people.

Seeing that the start was correct, Jiang Chao calmed down and continued to smile: "The third master must know about my maritime business. The reason why I dare to do this business is that my family has been running boats for generations; secondly, I have been doing business in Ningbo for these years, and I know the maritime business very well. I even went to Sulu once myself, and I know the routes, docks, and even when the sea wind will be encountered. If there is a sea breeze, where to take shelter? I know everything."

Pei Yan had already guessed what he was going to say.

He couldn't help but sit upright.

That's interesting.

This Jiang Chao, who had made a huge loss himself, could still come to him to trick him without being humble or arrogant.

He is a talent!

No wonder Yu Wen and Mr. Wu were immediately impressed by him after just meeting him once. Not only did they invest money in him, they were willing to continue to help him even when he lost all his money.

Pei Yan leaned forward slightly, a smile flashed in his eyes, and said, "What do you want to say?"

Jiang Chao gritted his teeth and said: "I want Mr. Pei San to support me in doing a maritime business. This season is the calmest time on the sea. If it continues, we will have to wait until next year. Since you know Ningbo I must also know that Boss Wang is not unwilling to do this business, but because our capital is too small and cannot withstand the trouble. But you are different! Not only are you in charge of the Pei family, you also have a large amount of private property in your name. .Even if you don’t do it in the name of the Pei family, you can still do business at sea on your own."

I even found out that he had private property in his own name.

Pei Yan smiled and said: "Then do you know that our Pei family and Song family are related by marriage. Why should I help you?"

Yu Wen was also curious. While refilling Jiang Chao's tea, he asked Jiang Chao: "What did you answer at that time? How did you know that the Song family and the Pei family were at odds?"

At this time Jiang Chao had returned from Pei Mansion.

His vest was covered in sweat, and his clothes were soaked and very uncomfortable.

But as soon as he entered the door, he was dragged to the study by Yu Wen who had been waiting in the courtyard for questioning. Before he could change his clothes, he had to endure it and said: "Brother Yu knows that the Pei family and the Song family are in-laws, but he doesn't know that the two families are related by marriage." Is there any gap?"

Yu Wen really doesn’t know.

He hesitated for a long time without saying anything.

Jiang Chao couldn't help but doubt the relationship between the Yu family and the Pei family. He was thinking about whether to tell Yu Wen when he saw Shuangtao coming in to serve tea. His heart moved and he observed Shuangtao's movements.

After Shuangtao served tea, she put away the tea tray and stood quietly behind the floor-length curtain. Anyone who wasn't paying attention wouldn't even notice she was in the room.

Jiang Chao understood that Miss Yu had asked Shuangtao to inquire about the news.

He was moved in his heart and said: "Brother Yu is from Lin'an, I thought you all knew that. I didn't expect that you would hear about the lawsuit between the Song family and the Pei family from me."

Yu Wen smiled sarcastically.

Jiang Chao seemed to know everything and said everything, "Lao An of the Song family and Lao An of the Pei family are better married girls from their Qian family, so Lao An of the Pei family just married In Lin'an, the two families were relatively close. However, at that time, there were four or five children of the Song family working as officials outside, and only Mr. Wang, the Pei family, won the Jinshi. In comparison, the Pei family was naturally not as prominent as the Song family. . In addition, the Song family is in Suzhou and the Pei family is in Lin'an. As time goes by, the Song family will inevitably be a little neglectful towards the Pei family.

"It is said that the feud between the two families started when the eldest son of the Song family got married."

"Lao An of the Pei family took the three men of the Pei family to Suzhou Mansion for a wedding banquet. Mr. Pei had a quarrel with several of Mr. Song's classmates over an article, and later, for some reason, he even started fighting. One of them I was even beaten by the second master of the Pei family."

Yu Wen was stunned.

Jiang Chao said: "Originally, this was nothing. We were all seventeen or eighteen years old. They said they were beaten, but they were just punched a few times. The adults scolded each other and it was over. It happened that the eldest master of the Song family was a protector and thought highly of himself. He led a few followers and blocked the second master Pei in a passage and beat him. The second master Pei suffered a loss, so the third master Pei led the Pei family there. Several nursing homes smashed Mr. Song’s new house.

"This will not end well.

"It turns out that Pei Lao'an is not a vegetarian, and he is more protective of the Song family than the Song family. He threw two thousand taels of silver notes to the Song family, didn't even drink the wedding wine, and returned to Lin'an with his three sons that day. The Song family sent someone to argue, but Pei Lao'an protected his three sons tightly. Not only did he not apologize, but he also threatened that if the Song family didn't hand over the entourage who beat him, the Song and Pei families would not have to move around. ."

Yu Tang’s apricot eyes widened and he asked Shuangtao: “Is it Mr. Pei Er who hit the man, not Mr. Pei San?”

Shuangtao said: "I heard it clearly. The one who beat people is Mr. Pei Er, and the one who smashed the new house is Mr. Pei San."

Then why does everyone say that Mr. Pei Er is an honest, loyal, filial and propriety man?

Shuangtao continued: "The Song family and the Pei family just had nothing to do with each other. ~IndoMTL.com~ Later, the three masters of the Pei family all won Jinshi, but the Song family was getting worse day by day. When the second master of the Pei family got married, , Song Laoan came to An in person to congratulate the Pei family, and this matter was finally revealed."

"So Jiang Chao took advantage of this and begged Master Pei San?" Yu Tang murmured, "He even agreed to Jiang Chao and used money to invest in Jiang Chao so that Jiang Chao could buy a new boat. Maritime business from Ningbo to Sulu?"

Shuangtao: "Master Pei San has not agreed yet. He only said that he will think about it when the time comes."

Even if you think about it, Jiang Chao is very powerful. Pei Yan once said that he would not do maritime business. What made him change his mind?

Based on her understanding of Pei Yan, he is not a person who changes his mind easily.

Yu Tang thought of Gu Chang's previous visit and Pei Yan's late return... Could it be that something had happened to the Pei family?

Yu Tang was a little worried and thought about whether to go see Pei Yan.

After all, Pei Yan helped her a lot. She had experience in her previous life. It would be great if she could help Pei Yan.
