Delicate Flower Chapter 152: Reunion


Pei Yan didn't think too much and agreed readily.

Yu Tang breathed a sigh of relief and stood up to say goodbye, planning to go say hello to Lao An and then go back.

Pei Yan looked very busy and ordered A Ming to take Yu Tang to the inner courtyard.

Lao An was drinking tea with his second daughter-in-law. Hearing that Yu Tang had come over, Ah Ming had brought him here. He turned to Mrs. Pei and smiled and said, "It's good for you to meet her too. This child is lively but not noisy. It’s just the right time to keep Adan company.”

The second wife has always respected her mother-in-law. When she heard this, she immediately smiled and said "yes" and said warmly: "I also heard what A Dan said. She said that she met Miss Yu when she came to your place to make clothes last time. Miss Yu gave her I chose a goose-blue material to make my jacket, and I heard that she is a steady girl."

Lao An feels sorry for the younger generation and secretly stews egg custard for them. This is the kindness of Lao An. However, they, the younger generation, cannot get carried away. They really do not follow the rules, eat meat, drink soup and wear bright clothes. .

Pei Dan is the youngest in their family. She has grown up with them in Renzhang. She has a simple mind. Every time she and her sisters go out, her heart is hanging, for fear that she will do something inappropriate. Every time The maids and women serving around Pei Dan should be repeatedly warned to keep an eye on Pei Dan.

If the people around Pei Dan were like Miss Yu, then Pei Dan would have fewer chances of getting into trouble.

The two were talking, and Yu Tang walked in led by Aunt Chen.

There is a stranger in the house.

Yu Tang couldn't help but look at Mrs. Pei Er curiously.

Twenty-seven or eight years old, with a peach face and willow-leaf eyebrows, wearing a white gilt silver Ruyi moiré floral Hangzhou silk jacket, sitting there dignified and beautiful, smiling before saying anything, showing gentleness in her reserve , making people feel amiable like the sister next door.

"This is the second wife, the mother of the fifth lady." Lao An introduced Mrs. Pei to Yu Tang.

Yu Tang hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

The second wife stretched out her hand to help Yu Tang, and said with a smile: "I didn't know that Miss Yu came here today, and she didn't bring any greeting gifts..." After saying that, she thought for a while, and pulled out the enamel flower she was wearing in her hair. The white bauhinia hairpin was handed to Yu Tang, "It's just a meeting gift. Please don't dislike it, Miss Yu."

The Bauhinia flower is exquisitely made, even the stamens are inlaid with white crystal stones the size of sesame seeds. It is extraordinary at first glance.

Yu Tang complained secretly.

The ladies in the Pei family are all very nice people, but the relationship between them is too heavy.

I don’t know when she will be able to escape poverty.

"Thank you, Second Madam!" Yu Tang smiled and accepted it, sat down on the embroidered pier pointed by Lao An, and took the initiative to talk about the Pei Mansion with a smile: "I heard that the Li family was really lucky back then. After I came back with a few cartloads of money, I thought that if this matter spread, it would only bring bad reputation to Lin'an City, so I went to see the third master."

Li Yi is an official from Lin'an anyway. If his reputation becomes bad, it will also damage the reputation of Lin'an people. However, this shouldn't be something Yu Tang should worry about, let alone running to tell Pei Yan.

Lao An was not happy, but she did not deny Yu Tang because of this incident. After all, she and Yu Tang had not had much contact. Maybe this was just a momentary mistake of the little girl?

"What did the Third Master say?" She said calmly.

Yu Tang wanted to tell Lao An about her suspicions, but Lao An was obviously not an ordinary woman and child. If she told him directly, Lao An would definitely think that she was nosy or looking for excuses to get in front of the third master. , it’s better to ask what to say. As time goes by, letting Lao An judge what kind of person she is by himself will make Lao An feel more at ease.

"The Third Master said he knew." Yu Tang said with a smile, "I thought I hadn't seen you for a few days, so I came over to say hello to you."

Lao An smiled and thought, after all, she is still a little girl, and no matter how prudent she acts, there are still some things that are not thoughtful. She looked at Yu Tang's pretty but heartless look, and suddenly felt a little pity. She couldn't help but tell Yu Tang to be a good person: "If you encounter such a thing in the future, let your father come to see the third master. Let him tell the third master."

Yu Tang felt that her opportunity had come and said hurriedly: "I also wanted my father to come and tell the third master. It's just that my father has been very busy these days - Li Duan and Li Ju were busy the other day Aren't they going to sell part of their Yongye field, which can grow green stem rice? My father and Mr. Wu, who lives next door to our house, bought part of it together. They just got the land deed. My father and Mr. Wu have been spending the whole day these days. I've been busy with this thing all day long! It's not good to disturb his old man. I just came to see the third master." After saying that, she immediately admitted her mistake, "After Lao An said it, I also felt that it was me who acted. It was too reckless, and I will never do that again."

After speaking, she also made a gesture of swearing.

The second wife pursed her lips and smiled.

Lao An was stunned and said, "What did you say? The Li family sold fifty acres of Yongye land?! Do you know how much one acre of land costs?"

Yu Tang said with a smile: "It's forty taels of silver per acre of land. My father and Mr. Wu went to sign the deed two days ago. They were afraid that the Li family would make things difficult for them, so they asked the third master to come forward and help solve the irrigation problem. My father and Mr. Wu are very grateful to the third master. They also said that they will go to the temple in a few days to burn some incense for the third master and ask Bodhisattva to bless the third master to be blessed with good health and a long life!"

At this time, both Lao An and the second wife laughed, Lao An even laughed so much that tears came out. While taking the handkerchief from the little maid's hand and wiping the corners of his eyes, he said: "He is young. Yeah, what kind of incense are you offering? Be careful not to ruin his luck."

Yu Tang was ashamed.

Pei Yan will be confused by his appearance at first sight. After a few encounters, he will be overwhelmed by his aura. Whether it is the former or the latter, it is easy for others to ignore his age.

"Well, I'll tell my father as soon as I get back." She said, "Let him change to something else to thank the Third Master."

"No need for anything!" Lao An still had the smile on his face after laughing happily, "He doesn't lack anything. Besides, since he is the head of the family, he has to protect his neighbors. There's nothing to thank you for." As she said that, she started talking about how Mr. Pei had benefited the country back then.

This is probably the most unforgettable memory of Lao An's late husband.

Yu Tang listened respectfully, but out of the corner of his eye he saw a little maid poking her head outside.

First of all, she didn't want to interrupt Lao An's beautiful memories. Secondly, she was just a guest, so there was no need to make a fuss.

Yu Tang sat there as steady as a mountain.

The little maid was so anxious that she poked her head around, and was finally discovered by the second wife.

The second wife winked at the maid beside her, and the maid beside her walked out calmly. After a while, he came back gently and whispered a few words in the second wife's ear. The second wife looked at Lao An, waited for Lao An to finish speaking, picked up the tea cup and took a few sips of tea, then said with a smile: "Mother, Mrs. Shen is here to visit you."

"Mrs. Shen?" Lao An asked in confusion, "Which Mrs. Shen?"

The second wife smiled and said: "She is the wife of Mr. Shen Shanyan, who teaches at our county school."

Lao An frowned when he heard this and said, "What's she doing here? Why didn't she send a post in advance?"

She looked like she didn't like seeing Mrs. Shen very much.

Yu Tang couldn't help but listen.

Mr. Shen has lived alone in Lin'an for many years. I wonder what kind of person his wife is? I don’t know what the connection between Mrs. Shen and Lao An is?

But the second wife smiled good-naturedly and said: "Last time, didn't my aunt say she had something to bring you? It was Mrs. Shen who asked for it. I think Mrs. Shen is probably here to deliver something. I thought you knew it, so she didn't Send me another greeting card." He added, "Speaking of which, Mrs. Shen is not someone else, so she has never met you."

Lao An snorted with some disdain and said: "Let her in!"

The second wife got up and went to greet him personally.

Yu Tang hurriedly stood up and left.

But Lao An left her alone: ​​"She will leave after saying a few words. I have something else to ask you."

Yu Tang didn't want to mention leaving anymore, so he got up and helped Lao An refill his cup of tea.

The second wife walked in with the two of them.

Yu Tang looked up and almost threw the teapot out of his hand.

Those raised eyebrows and bright eyes, isn’t it Gu Xi or who is it?

Her heart suddenly started pounding.

In her previous life, she had never heard of the relationship between Gu Xi and the Pei family, nor had she seen Gu Xi visiting Lao An at the Pei family. How come she was reborn and everything had changed?

Not to mention the changes in Jiang Ling, the two brothers Gu Chang and Gu Xi also came to join in the fun!

Fortunately, the attention of everyone in the room was focused on Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen who came in with Gu Xi, and no one noticed anything wrong with Yu Tang. Even Gu Xi just glanced at Yu Tang quickly, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then quickly lowered his eyebrows. Mrs. Shen who followed him bent her knees to salute Lao An.

Lao An smiled slightly, not seeing the slightest hint of the complaint he had just made. When the two of them stood up and sat down, while the maids were serving tea, he asked Gu Xi: "You are the eldest daughter of the second wife of the Gu family, Gu Chaoyang My sister?"

It can be seen that he has heard of Gu Xi before.

Gu Xi hurriedly stood up to answer, but was stopped by Lao An: "Sit down and talk. Your mother's family and I are related by marriage, so you don't have to be polite with me."

Gu Xi smiled and sat down generously.

But based on Yu Tang's understanding of her, she felt that she was secretly relieved.

She is just here to visit an elder, so there is nothing for her to be nervous about.

Yu Tang observed Gu Xi calmly.

Lao An asked Gu Xi for a long time~IndoMTL.com~ Gu Xi answered appropriately but also cautiously, which made Yu Tang even more aware that Gu Xi came with a purpose.

After Lao An finished asking, he introduced Yu Tang to Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi, and said in a protective tone that Yu Tang was one of her juniors, but did not specifically mention whose family Yu Tang belonged to. girl.

Both Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen greeted Yu Tang.

Mrs. Shen looks to be in her forties and is very thin. She wore an ordinary bright blue turban, two gold hairpins in her hair, and a pair of gold bracelets on her hands. Considering her status, she was dressed very simply. Perhaps because of her serious expression, or because of the influence of Lao An just now, although she was polite to Yu Tang, Yu Tang still felt that her face was a bit harsh and she was not an easy person to get along with.

Gu Xi made her feel a little surprised.

In her previous life, Gu Xi was known to be dignified and polite, but when they first met in this life, Gu Xi asked her with a playful smile: "How old are you this year? Should I call you sister or sister?"

She is so enthusiastic that she is nothing like her previous life.
