Delicate Flower Chapter 195: Struggle for production


Yu Tang dared to play tricks in front of Pei Yan, but was too embarrassed to fool Pei Lao'an.

As for what arrangements are there for Zhaoming Temple on the Day of Buddha Bathing, there are so many people in charge of the Pei family. She believes that a few days before Buddha Bathing Day, someone will naturally tell her the schedule for that day. She doesn’t have to worry about getting angry. She knows it now. .

Pei Lao'an didn't tell anyone, so she didn't need to ask.

Yu Tang smiled and nodded, and said: "The Third Miss and the Fifth Miss asked me to join them in helping people in Ku'an Temple learn how to make incense. I thought it was me who proposed this matter, so I can't just throw it away. Let's go? I agreed. Later I found out that you asked them to be responsible for this matter, so I thought I could tell you. I also want to tell you about the incense offering during the Buddha Bathing Festival and the storage of the incense. , please check us to see if what we think is right."

In other words, they already have an idea.

Pei Laoan still knows a lot about his juniors.

The second girl has been busy preparing the dowry these days, and the third girl has also begun to discuss the engagement date. The two little girls are not thinking about this matter. The fourth and fifth girls are younger and still confused. Yes, he can't manage the people around him well, let alone the affairs of Ku'an Temple.

The one with ideas must be Yu Tang.

In the past, Pei Laoan only thought that she was quiet, gentle, generous, and knowledgeable. He didn't expect that she could still take care of things. He couldn't help but leaned towards her with interest, and said in a gentle voice with a kind look: "Then you tell me Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Yu Tang told Pei Laoan about borrowing shopkeeper Xiao Tong and asking someone to help him make incense.

Based on their situation, hiring a perfume maker can solve all the problems. Pei Laoan felt that she would do the same thing if she were in her place. But he was borrowing money from the manager, and he was borrowing money from shopkeeper Xiao Tong, which made Pei Lao'an feel a little moved in his heart.

When outsiders look at the Tong family, they only think that the Tong family are the old people of the Pei family, loyal and loyal, so they have some dignity in front of their boss. But people in the Pei family know that Shopkeeper Tong was left to Mr. Pei by Pei Yan’s grandfather. Shopkeeper Tong once served Mr. Pei’s pen and ink when he was young. Although he was later released as the big shopkeeper, he was always in charge of Mr. Pei's personal money. After Mr. Pei passed away, shopkeeper Tong was the first to stand up for Pei Yan and also helped Pei Yan take inventory of some of the property outside. Cleaned up. For Pei Yan, Shopkeeper Tong is the most trustworthy and respected person in the family. He is even planning to support Shopkeeper Xiao Tong and wants to let Shopkeeper Xiao Tong take charge of the Pei family's shop in the capital.

He actually lent such a person to Miss Yu and asked shopkeeper Xiao Tong to follow the female relatives at home to do mischief...

Pei Laoan looked at Yu Tang carefully.

The fair face, bright eyes, and rosy lips are like a magnolia flower in bud on a branch in March. Although the clothes are ordinary and there is a bit of travel dust, they are still as beautiful as summer. The light, just sitting there quietly, made the room a little brighter.

She is a true beauty.

But Pei Yan is not the kind of person who lets beauty dominate. Otherwise, he wouldn't be at this age and there wouldn't be anyone in the room.

Then why did Miss Yu impress Pei Yan and let him support them in doing those good deeds that seemed like a joke?

Pei Laoan was thinking in his heart.

Yu Tang didn't think so much. She thought it was normal for Pei Lao'an to scrutinize her - the elders of the younger generation's friends could not pay attention to them. If they met someone with bad character, they would be affected. , but when the time comes, I won’t even be able to cry back.

She said calmly: "Lao An, do you think this is feasible?"

Pei Lao'an thought for a while and said in deep thought: "Shopkeeper Xiao Tong is indeed very good, but why did you think of borrowing shopkeeper Xiao Tong? I'm a little curious."

Yu Tang felt strange.

She felt that Pei Laoan was talking a bit too much today, as if he was trying to explain to her why he was asking this question, but she was the old lady of Pei Mansion, so there was no need for this!

Yu Tang felt that he was being too careless, and still smiled calmly: "It's the third master I went to ask for - among the shopkeepers of the Pei family, I am only familiar with a few shopkeepers of the Tong family, and I don't know the others. I understood him, but I didn’t know what he was like, so I borrowed Shopkeeper Xiao Tong from the Third Master."

Pei Laoan was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed.

Some people are just lucky.

Sometimes, you may not be as lucky as others despite all your tricks.

Maybe Yu Tang is such a lucky little girl.

Pei Laoan stopped thinking about it and said with a smile: "This is a good choice." Then he couldn't help but tell her how to deal with people, "To do things, you have to choose the right person. If you choose the right person, everything will be done with twice the result with half the effort. If a person is If you don’t choose well, you will be constrained in everything you do. Sometimes when we do things, we actually choose people.”

Yu Tang felt the kindness of Pei Laoan and lowered his hands respectfully to listen.

Still a smart man.

Pei Lao'an was very satisfied and even instructed her to ask shopkeeper Xiao Tong to help find people who make incense sticks and incense coils: "This matter is a matter of course. Since he has taken over, these things You might as well leave things to him. He knows more people than you do. If he finds it difficult, he can go to other stewards for help. This is much better than leaving it to Hu Xing. Hu Xing has always only Walking around Lin'an City, you can't compare to the Tong family. Several uncles and brothers are all working as big shopkeepers."

Yu Tang hurriedly stood up to say thank you, and chatted a few more times with Pei Laoan. It was not until the little maid came to report that the eldest lady was here, that she stood up and left.

Pei Laoan did not keep her and asked Aunt Ji to send her out.

When she went out, she met the eldest lady.

Yu Tang wanted to salute the eldest lady, but the eldest lady's face was ashen and she didn't even look at her or Aunt Ji. She was surrounded by a group of maids and women and passed her by.

Aunt Ji's face was full of embarrassment and she apologized to Yu Tang: "The eldest lady has been so busy these days with the eldest son's marriage. Please don't take it to heart."

This look showed that she was in a rage. Of course, Yu Tang would not be angry about this, but she could not help but be curious, and quietly asked Aunt Ji, "Is this the case these days, Madam?"

Aunt Ji saw no one around and started gossiping with her in a low voice: "No! Didn't you live in another courtyard before? She didn't come back when I asked her to come back for the New Year. Then somehow, Uncle Yang came, and she After going down the mountain, she was angry with Lao An and the third master every day about the eldest son’s marriage. If it weren’t for the eldest master’s memorial day coming soon, how could Lao An tolerate her!”

Perhaps the eldest lady made such a fuss just because her grandpa’s memorial day was about to come!

Yu Tang made a malicious guess, and was a little surprised that there was so much fuss about the eldest son getting married.

Aunt Ji glanced at her and said with a smile: "No wonder Miss Yu doesn't know. Rich families are selfless, but they can't really get married. Buy a bouquet for your wife and wear it. You have to wait for the month or reach out to the family at home. If the elders want it, when they get married, they usually give some property to the younger generation, so that they can have the income to buy pollen, rouge, pens, inks, paper and inkstones. The eldest wife is angry with Lao An for this matter! She said that the eldest son is the eldest grandson of the family. , although I can’t inherit Yongye Field, I can’t be like the young masters in other houses and end up with just a few shops.” When she said this, she looked around again with vigilance and whispered in Yu Tang’s ear. Said: "Aunt Chen said that the eldest wife is trying to get Lao An's dowry!"

Yu Tang was shocked.

Aunt Ji thought she didn't believe it, and said, "Really! It was Aunt Chen who told me." At this point, she sighed longly, "When Lao An married in, she had ten miles of red makeup, and the dowry was not enough. Young. But the old man seemed to know that he would go ahead of Lao An. After the old man left, the family knew that the old man had transferred all the properties in his name to Lao An, and the three masters did not get a single copper. ”

"Ah!" Yu Tang opened his eyes wide.

Why didn't you give it to your son?

Is it because he is afraid that his sons will not be filial to Lao An after he leaves? Or do you think all three sons are not good?

But this doesn’t make sense!

Yu Tang frowned.

Aunt Ji sighed: "Not to mention anything else, the silver alone is no less than one hundred thousand taels, and it's not stored in the Pei family's own bank. After the old man left, the big shopkeeper of that bank was afraid that Lao An would take away the money. The money was all taken away. Before the old man was buried, he started to circle around Lao An. Until he got Lao An's approval, he would still deposit the money in their bank. The big shopkeeper still felt uneasy and stayed at home for another month. Yu Cai left. Who can resist being tempted by a mother-in-law like this!"

"Yes!" Yu Tang said absentmindedly, still thinking about the old man's arrangement, "So much money!"

"No!" Aunt Ji shook her head, "But what's the use of keeping so much money? I think Lao An would rather not have this money than let the old man leave."

Yes! Who wants to lose company in old age, not to mention that I heard that the relationship between the old man and Lao An has always been very good.

Yu Tang suddenly felt a little depressed.

The two were speechless, and just as they were about to part ways at the gate, Pei Yan came back.

Everyone was very surprised when they saw the carriage and horses, and the originally quiet side door immediately became noisy.

Pei Yan got off the carriage but walked towards Yu Tang: "What? Are you going back now? Have you met Lao An? What did Lao An say?" He looked like he had something important to discuss.

Pei Qi, who was following the car, rolled his eyes and interjected a little presumptuously: "Third Master, have you eaten well and slept well these days? If you have anything to say, you should go inside and talk!" ~IndoMTL.com~ His eyes fell on Yu Tang, he politely called "Miss Yu" and made a gesture of invitation.

But when Yutang looked at Pei Yan, he had smooth skin, clear eyes, a tall and strong figure, and no trace of fatigue at all.

She sneered inwardly.

This Pei Qi is also an outstanding person.

Aunt Ji couldn't close her mouth for a long time. Seeing that Pei Qi wanted to invite Yu Tang to return to Pei's house, she came back to her senses and hurriedly stepped forward to help Yu Tang and said hurriedly: "Miss Yu, you Come with me."

But even so, she was at a loss and had no idea what was happening.

Didn’t the third master go to build roads? Why are you back at this time?

The distinction between men and women is unclear. Since you want to invite Miss Yu into the house, why not invite Qingyuan or Yanqing? When Pei Qi invited Miss Yu, why didn't the third master stop her?

She accompanied Yu Tang to the farm with one foot high and one foot low.
