Delicate Flower Chapter 154: Discord

When Yu Tang came back, he was riding in the Pei family's sedan.

I don’t know if it was because she was a guest of Hemingtang, but the sedan went smoothly and steadily, and arrived at Qingzhu Lane with almost no bumps.

After entering the door, she saw Wang Si moving firewood towards home.

She couldn't help but wonder: "Why are you here?"

Wang Si smiled naively at her. Before she could answer, Shuangtao came out of the kitchen and rushed to answer: "He had nothing to do and picked up a lot of firewood. He thought that our family would buy more firewood, so he We drove into the city. Miss, come quickly and take a look, the woodshed at home is full."

Yu Tang took a look with a smile, then went back to the room to change clothes and go to greet Ms. Chen.

Mr. Chen was discussing with Mrs. Chen about worshiping ancestors on the first day of October. When she saw Yu Tang coming in, she stopped the conversation and asked Mrs. Chen to make a bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus syrup for Yu Tang.

Mr. Chen responded with a smile.

Ms. Chen took Yu Tang's hand and asked her to sit next to her, and asked her warmly: "Didn't you come back as soon as you said you were going? Why did you come back so late? Did Lao An leave some food?"

Yu Tang smiled and nodded, talking about meeting Gu Xi and Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Chen was quite surprised and said: "Mrs. Shen is here. Your father was called out by Mr. Wu. When he comes back, I will ask him if I want to say hello to Mrs. Shen." She was also very curious about Gu Xi and asked, "Is that girl pretty?"

"It's quite beautiful." Yu Tang said matter-of-factly.

"Then you had lunch together?"

Yu Tang shook his head: "No. Mrs. Shen said she wanted to go back and pack her things, but Lao An didn't keep them."

Unlike her, when she said she wanted to go back afterwards, Lao An repeatedly refused to stay. He also kept the second wife for lunch and asked people to pick up the fifth lady.

Lao An seems to be more interested in Mrs. Shen just for face.

Of course Mrs. Chen didn't know the difference. She thought it was Mrs. Shen who insisted on leaving, so she didn't ask any more questions. She just asked Yu Tang with concern: "Are you comfortable in the Pei Mansion? If you don't feel comfortable, you can find someone in the future. It’s better to have an excuse to go less often.”

Although she intends to repay the Pei family, if her daughter is wronged, she would rather repay the Pei family in other ways.

Yu Tang felt her mother's warmth and couldn't help but hugged her arm and said, "Don't worry, Lao An is a very good person. I don't feel uncomfortable at her place."

Moreover, after Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi left, Lao An asked carefully about the Li family's land sale.

Judging from Lao An's expression, Pei Yan had no doubts about things but Lao An became suspicious.

When she left, Lao An called Hu Xing over, probably to ask about the Li family.

From this point of view, if anything happens to her in the future, it would be better to go to Lao An instead of going to Pei Yan.

Yu Tang stayed by his mother's side, drinking sweet-scented osmanthus syrup while listening to her and Mrs. Chen continue to talk about ancestor worship.

Over there, Wang Si unloaded the firewood, came in to greet Mrs. Chen, and was about to return to the village.

Ms. Chen rewarded him with twenty copper coins and asked him if he wanted to go back to his hometown during the Chinese New Year.

Wang Si felt that the journey would be too expensive and he was not ready to go back.

Mr. Chen asked him to come home to celebrate the New Year.

Wang Si was overjoyed and thanked her again and again before driving away.

Mr. Chen said to Mrs. Chen: "He is an honest man, but there is something wrong with his eyes. The last time I returned to my old house, he helped to settle the account.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Yu family started collecting rent.

In the past, people from the Yu family were invited to help, but everyone had a lot to do at home, so they could only help, and they could not do anything. When weighing, calculating, and keeping accounts, either Yu Wen or Yu Bo did it. Take action. This time Yu Wen returned to his hometown to collect rent. Wang Si was busy and did not let Yu Wen personally participate in the battle from beginning to end. Yu Wen was only responsible for keeping accounts. When I came back, I lamented to my family: "You said that Wang Si can't even read a single Chinese character, but he can calculate the accounts faster than me, and every one of them is correct."

Yu Tang also heard about this.

She smiled and said: "Mr. Chen can't read a word, but when you look at her shopping for groceries, she is the only one who takes advantage of others. Does anyone else take advantage of her?"

Everyone laughed.

Mr. Chen was very proud.

When Mrs. Chen said this, Mrs. Chen winked at Mrs. Chen.

When Mrs. Chen saw her, she coughed twice and sent Yu Tang away: "You go back to the house and have a rest. I will take you to your aunt's house later to visit and talk about ancestor worship."

Since Xiangshi became pregnant, Wang has been serving Xiangshi with food and drinks all day long, smiling from ear to ear. She even stopped going to the shop and came to their home less often.

Yu Tang knew that Mrs. Chen was going to talk to her mother about herself again.

The last time she eavesdropped, she was still young and her mother had been bedridden all year round. Mrs. Chen was afraid that Yu Wen had other ideas, so she persuaded her mother to buy a maid for her father to come back and marry her.

This time she pretended to go out, but hid under her mother's window and eavesdropped.

This time Mrs. Chen persuaded her mother to betroth the two peaches to Wang Si, and said: "Anyway, our family is looking for a son-in-law, and the two peaches have reached the age of leaving the court. Originally, A Tiao was the best match, but A Tiao He's too young, and Shuangtao can't talk to him on weekdays. I think it's better to leave Wang Si behind."

Ms. Chen was thoughtful.

Yu Tang ran back quickly and took the opportunity to ask Shuangtao: "What do you think of Wang Si?"

Shuang Tao may have misunderstood that Yu Tang was inquiring about Wang Si's personality, and considered whether to keep Wang Si here, and said a lot of good things to Wang Si. However, even so, it can be seen that Shuangtao has a very good impression of Wang Si, but I wonder if Wang Si can stay with peace of mind?

Yu Tang pursed his lips and smiled, and then went to his uncle's house with Chen.

Mr. Xiang was already pregnant and was drinking chicken soup with a grimace. When she saw Yu Tang come in, she immediately grabbed a life-saving straw and told Xia Lian: "Quickly, go get a big bowl of chicken soup for the lady." Come here."

Xia Lian's face was full of confusion.

Yu Tang said hurriedly: "I don't drink chicken soup. Just make me a cup of tea."

Xiangshi encouraged her: "The weather is cold, so a bowl of chicken soup is just right."

Yu Tang said: "I don't want to drink! If my sister-in-law can't drink anymore, let my brother help me. I don't want to be scolded by my eldest aunt."

"No, no." Xiangshi said calmly.

Yu Tang chuckled and whispered to Xiangshi about Xia Lian and Xia Pinggui.

Xiangshi was very (terribly) surprised. When Xia Lian was refilling their tea and bringing them snacks, she kept staring at her until Xia Lian felt that there was something dirty on her face. Then Xiangshi let go. Passed by Xia Lian. Then he whispered to Yu Tang: "I think it's pretty good. It happens that your brother wants to expand the shop, and with Xia Pinggui sitting in the shop, your brother and your uncle will feel most at ease."

Yu Tang also thinks they are suitable, and is thinking in her heart, if they can succeed, their family will have two weddings next year!

When she and her mother returned home, they met Yu Wen at the door.

The weather was so cold that he stomped his feet from the cold.

Ms. Chen said distressedly: "Where have you been? Didn't you hire a sedan to come back?"

Yu Wenzhi sighed and said: "Aren't we going to worship our ancestors? Mr. Wu took me to buy a pig. But I met Mr. Shen on the way. He was drinking in a small wine shop on the roadside. I looked at him It looked wrong, but Mr. Wu insisted on going up to say hello to Mr. Shen. As a result, he left us both in the small wine shop to drink. You also know how much I drink. How dare I drink more. Mr. Wu is a thousand cups. Not drunk, the two of them drank evenly, and I poured wine for them. When they were almost drunk, Mr. Wu was carried home by his entourage, but I had to take Mr. Shen back to the county school. . However, I met Xiaochuan at the county school. I heard from the teachers at the county school that Xiaochuan studies very hard and will definitely be a scholar. If this is true, the Wei family will be able to turn around."

The Wei family has so many sons and so much land, but their life is still tight. The most important reason is that they pay too many taxes. If Wei Xiaochuan can pass the examination as a scholar, he can be exempted from part of the taxes of the Wei family, which is a lot of money for the Wei family.

Ms. Chen nodded and said, "Is Mr. Shen drinking alone in a small wine shop?" As he said that, he glanced at Yu Tang, as if asking Yu Tang, "Isn't Mrs. Shen here?"

Yu Tang also pricked up his ears to listen.

Yu Wen obviously didn't know about this and said: "I said he was in a bad mood. I didn't attend any of today's classes and asked other teachers to teach for me. Speaking of which, Mr. Shen was quite pitiful. When I sent him back , the room was deserted, and there was just an ignorant little boy taking a nap there. I asked him to help make a bowl of sobering tea and I didn’t know where to start. It’s a pity that Mr. Shen is so knowledgeable!”

This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with how much knowledge you have, right?

Yu Tang was thinking in his mind.

Ms. Chen obviously thought about it too. She frowned and said, "I heard from Ah Tang that Mrs. Shen is here, but Mrs. Shen didn't leave anyone to serve Mr. Shen?"

Yu Wen was surprised and said: "Mrs. Shen is here? When did it happen? Why didn't Mr. Shen mention a word?"

Ms. Chen hesitated and said: "I wanted to discuss with you before whether to go see Mrs. Shen, but after hearing what you said, I don't know what to do?"

Yu Wen said thoughtfully: "I'll go and inquire first before I talk."

Chen promised.

Two days later~IndoMTL.com~ Yu Wenlai discussed Mrs. Shen’s affairs with Chen, while Yu Tang listened.

"Logically speaking, Mrs. Shen's visit is rare, and we have received favors from Mr. Shen. Even if we can't invite Mrs. Shen to our home, we should still visit Mrs. Shen." He said awkwardly, "But I heard from Shen Fang that Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen had been at odds since they got married. As a result, they only had an only son. Mrs. Shen also lived in Lao'an, Pei Mansion, in Lin'an. Mr. Shen also had no regard for the people around him. Reveal something."

It became very difficult to decide whether to go and see Mrs. Shen.

In his previous life, Yu Tang had never heard about Mr. Shen, and it was difficult to make up his mind. But she thought for a long time and gave her parents advice: "How about we just pretend we don't know. At that time, Lao An didn't introduce whose family I was a girl from, and Mr. Shen didn't tell you a word, so it's better not to get into trouble. It’s good.”

Yu Wen thought for a while and felt that Yu Tang's method was feasible, and said: "Anyway, our family has no contact with the Shen family, so it makes sense if Mrs. Shen comes."

The matter was over with Yu Wen, but it aroused Chen's great interest. She quietly ran to Mr. Wu's house and asked Mrs. Wu if she knew Mrs. Shen had come to Lin'an.
