Delicate Flower Chapter 165: Speak

The cold wind blew through the pavilion next to Mingshan Lake, biting the bones.

Yu Tang was wrapped in a cloak and asked Pei Yan tremblingly: "Why do you come here to talk? Can't you find a warmer or something?"

Pei Yan did not answer, but glanced at Yu Tang's cloak.

With a lining of chinchilla skin and a plain silk surface, it’s no wonder you feel cold.

In this season, you should use fox fur or mink fur for the lining, and tapestry or Sichuan embroidery for the surface.

The Yu family is considered rich now, and they are reluctant to make a better cloak for Miss Yu.

Pei Yan frowned.

Yu Tang was stunned.

As he looked, he saw his cloak.

She suddenly frowned angrily.

Why does this Pei Yan always stare at her clothes?

She is not a young lady from the Pei family. She has many social events and wears different clothes every time. This cloak was made from her mother's dowry, and the fur was well preserved. Only one corner of the plain cloak was embroidered with a cluster of orchids. The stitching was fine and the color was elegant. It was a good-looking piece of clothing no matter how it was worn.

Why does he always look displeased?

Yu Tang sneered in his heart and decided not to let Pei Yan live in peace.

Just then, another gust of cold wind blew over, and the cold wind hit her hard. She simply wrapped herself in her cloak again, and said, "How about a waterside pavilion! Standing here like this, people will freeze into popsicles."

Is the place he chose so bad?

Pei Yan explained: "This is the closest place to Merlin."

Okay!

Considering that Lao An was still appreciating the plum blossoms in the plum forest, Yu Tang decided to keep his words short even if he had a long story.

She said: "What do you want to see me for?"

Pei Yan originally wanted to ask her directly what happened at home, but Yu Tang's complaint just now made Pei Yan feel that she had not arranged things well, and she felt a little uncomfortable, so she started by talking about Li Duan's family. ——In his heart, he subconsciously felt that Yu Tang would be very happy if he knew that Li Duan was unlucky.

"You told me about the Li family, and I went to check it out." Pei Yan said thoughtfully, "It's true as you said, when Li Yi was the prefect of Rizhao, his hands and feet were indeed a little dirty. "At this point, he pursed his lips.

Being an official for thousands of miles is a source of wealth.

This is the reason why many people enter the official career in the first place.

Pei Yan can understand, but doesn't agree.

So when he knew what Li Yi had done in Rizhao, he was very angry.

Everything has a bottom line. If you cross this line, you will be despised.

He wrote about Li Yi and told him about a man of the same age who was a censor in the Imperial Procuratorate. This man had always been ambitious and wanted to be a capable official who would go down in history.

He will definitely tell Li Yi how to behave.

Yu Tang felt happy.

In other words, that family can be cleared of their grievances as soon as possible.

She couldn't help but said: "Then, what are you going to do?"

Pei Yan saw the familiar light as bright as the summer sun in her eyes again, and secretly nodded with satisfaction, but said calmly: "Don't their family want to move to Hangzhou? Then just move there."

Yu Tang was stunned.

Usually, families who move out and never come back have no local property.

In other words, Pei Yan wanted to force the Li family to sell most, if not all, of their ancestral property.

She thought of the ancestral property sold by the Yu family in her previous life, and suddenly felt that the retribution of the Li family was coming slowly in this life due to Pei Yan's unintentional concern.

"Thank you, Third Master!" She murmured, with water glistening in the corners of her eyes.

Pei Yan looked suspicious.

He didn't say anything. Why was Miss Yu so excited and grateful all of a sudden? Could it be that Miss Yu hated the Li family so much that she would be happy as long as the Li family was unlucky?

Pei Yan couldn't understand.

Yu Tang had no intention of explaining to him and fooled him in a careless manner: "Oh, weren't I thinking about the remaining 150 acres of land of the Li family? Their land is the best in Lin'an City. I can’t buy it even if I have money. It’s hard to wait until the Li family is in trouble, how can I resist such a big temptation?”

She said jokingly, with a kind of pure joy in her eyes that did not involve any grudges or grudges.

I am truly happy.

Pei Yan was stunned, and his voice couldn't help but become a little lighter, and said: "What if our family also wants that 150 acres of land!"

Yu Tang was very surprised.

In her heart, Pei Yan was not someone who spoke casually.

At this time, he asked her for the 150 acres of land belonging to the Li family.

Knowing that this sentence might be a joke, Yu Tang couldn't help but feel happy.

She said: "Of course I'll give it to your family! It's nice to enjoy the shade under the big tree! If I follow your family, at least I won't have to worry about watering the fields in the future."

If you think about it this way, it really makes sense!

Pei Yan gave a rare laugh and said, "How about we go to the waterside pavilion next to us to talk?"

Across the lake, opposite the pavilion is a waterside pavilion standing half on the water.

Yu Tang thought Pei Yan was here to tell her this, so he shook his head repeatedly and said, "Forget it, it's nice here. Lao An is still waiting for me to go back!"

Seeing that she had returned to normal, Pei Yan slowly calmed down and talked about the reason for his visit: "You just sent a letter back to your house in the morning and sent someone over to reply to you in the afternoon. Is there something wrong at home?" What happened?"

Yu Tang felt that Pei Yan had seen her when she was at her most embarrassing and embarrassed, and there was nothing she couldn't tell him.

She told Pei Yan about asking Mr. Zhang to draw pictures.

Pei Yan was very surprised and looked Yu Tang up and down.

Yu Tang said nervously: "What's wrong?"

But I was worried about whether I had done something wrong, and thought about what I had done over and over again.

Who knew that Pei Yan said seriously: "I didn't expect you to have this business experience. Have you ever thought about making a diamond?"

The most expensive furniture nowadays is inlaid with mother-of-pearl. Those with red paint like theirs are usually small pieces and may last a lifetime. Some families may not necessarily buy them even when they get married.

Furniture is different.

Everyone needs it in their home.

But there are still more black-painted furniture.

It can be seen that Pei Yan is not right all the time.

Yu Tang refused tactfully and said with a smile: "Our family's ancestral craft is picking red paint. If we make diamonds, it is equivalent to abandoning the near and seeking the far away. We will lose all the old craftsmanship. Thinking about it, it is still not cost-effective. ”

The Pei family has a lot of business, but most of it is still managed by the shopkeeper. The most he can do is make requests and look at the accounts. He really doesn't understand these things.

"I'll just tell you." He said, "Someone recently asked me to open a workshop for making diamonds. I'm still thinking about it, so I thought I'd ask if you can use it at home."

Yu Tang was surprised.

If it were just a workshop for making diamonds, there would be too many places that could be used.

As long as the person in charge doesn't mess around, it's a very profitable business.

This is really in line with the old saying "money chases wealth".

But she was also a little curious as to why someone would sell such a workshop.

Pei Yan did not hide anything from her, and said: "It belongs to the Song family." He also explained: "Didn't their family partner with the Peng family and the Wu family to build ships? Needless to say, the Peng family, the Wu family was originally a nouveau riche. Bai Cheng belongs to the squire. But the cost of shipbuilding is high. How can their family have the money to compete with those two families? I guess the Peng family and the Wu family want to join forces to squeeze the Song family out, so they set some kind of trap. The Song family The family is now in a difficult situation, so they have to quietly sell off some properties to save money." At this point, he thought of something, and said "Huh", and then said: "Does it take many times to paint the red paint? The Song family seems to be still struggling. There is a paint workshop..."

But they don’t need a paint workshop to provide paint!

The most important thing is that there is no one in their family to manage these industries.

In the end, businesses that rely on others for help will not make much money.

This is Yu Tang’s experience in his previous life.

She politely refused again, thinking that if she continued talking to Pei Yan like this, Pei Yan might have something shocking to say, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Do you want to take over the Song family's industry? They are the most profitable. What is it?"

"It's weaving." Pei Yan said, without answering whether he wanted to take over the Song family's industry. "However, weaving is too troublesome. Not weaving tributes is not enough to make people feel that the fabrics are good, and making tributes requires someone to follow them. Dealing with people in the Fourteenth Yamen..." At this point, he suddenly stopped and became stunned.

Yu Tang didn’t know why.

Pei Yan asked her: "Do you know Jiang Chao?"

Jiang Chao had lived in their house for a while, so of course she knew him. But looking at Pei Yan's appearance, it clearly refers to whether she understands Jiang Chao.

Yu Tang said thoughtfully: "It's not bad! I've heard my father say it many times."

Pei Yan nodded, and then asked about other things in a whimsical way: "Does your shop just need to have good paintings?"

"It looks like this now." Yu Tang said conservatively, "For business, we still have to explore it bit by bit."

Pei Yan asked: "Is Master Zhang's painting really that good?"

Yu Tang smiled and said: "I have little knowledge. Among all the paintings I have seen, Mr. Zhang's paintings are the best."

Pei Yan nodded and said: "Okay! As long as nothing happens at home, it's fine. I invited you to accompany my mother, so I can't let you worry about two things. If there is anything at home, just call the maid. Come and tell me, boy, and I will try my best to help you solve it."

Yu Tang thanked him.

The two separated.

Needless to say, Yu Tang returned to Meilin directly. But at this moment, Merlin's poetry party has ended, and everyone is preparing to go to Lao An's place.

As soon as Gu Xi saw her, she smiled and said: "It's better to come early than to come by chance. We just decided to have mutton pot tonight and you are back~IndoMTL.com~ It can be seen that Miss Yu is a lucky person."

"Didn't you say we were having barbecue tonight?" Yu Tang said unexpectedly.

Why did you change your mind again?

The fourth lady blushed and hesitated: "Miss Gu's poem was rated first, and the third sister's was rated second. Miss Gu said she was the best, so she let the third sister choose. The third sister said the barbecue would get hot, and in the evening If you don’t eat well, you’ll eat pot instead.”

It’s not surprising that Gu Xi’s poem criticized No. 1 Yu Tang.

It can be seen that there was another bet after she left.

She can eat anything and said with a smile: "That's okay. If it still snows tomorrow, we can have a barbecue."

Yu Tang’s words touched the hearts of the Fourth Miss and the Fifth Miss.

The two nodded together, and a group of people chatted and laughed and hugged Lao An to the main courtyard.

On the way, Gu Xi wanted to ask Yu Tang several times, "You don't care about the rank of your poems," but she endured it.
