Delicate Flower Chapter 111: Benefits
The clear black and white eyes of Yu Tang, as clear as springs, appeared in Pei Yan's mind.
Whenever I look at something, I am full of curiosity.
For such a little girl, even if she is allowed to stay at home, she can still do something, right?
Pei Yan dropped a piece of peanut cake in his mouth.
No, she was not allowed to go out, so she made peanut cakes at home.
If he is locked up at home for a few more days, he still doesn’t know what she will give him.
"Ah Ming," he said, "please invite Miss Yu to my house for tea." As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of the guests staying in the guest room at home, and immediately changed his mind, "I'd better go see Miss Yu. . You tell them to prepare an ordinary sedan chair, and we will go quietly and come back quietly."
In the evening, there was a reception banquet.
A Ming left in response.
Two quarters of an hour later, a small sedan with a green curtain quietly left the back door of Pei's house.
The Ziqi Donglai Pavilion used by the Pei Mansion to entertain guests is called a pavilion, but it is actually a courtyard with nine twists and turns. Looking up, there are flower walls and paths everywhere. It is easy to get lost in it. Southeast, northwest.
The eldest man of the Peng family stood in front of the wide-open window lattice, with a bamboo forest on the left and a rockery of Taihu Lake on the right. The scenery was picturesque.
"The Pei family is quite interesting." He snorted and said calmly, "If we want to visit, we might get lost, right?"
He is a man in his fifties, tall and tall, with a white face and long beard, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He has a very elegant temperament, like a bachelor who has read poetry and books.
Behind him was a twenty-five or six-year-old man. On his jade-like face, there was a purple scar diagonally cut from the corner of his eye to the corner of his mouth, which not only made his appearance very ferocious, but also made his expression It also added a bit of ferocity, which made people look at him.
"Uncle," he whispered after hearing this, "then, do we still want to visit the Huzhou Wu family?"
The voice he spoke was somewhat gentle, but the anger in his eyes made it known that he was very impatient.
The Peng family and the Wu family used to have some business that should not be discussed with others, so it was easier to talk to them than other families.
"Of course I want to go." The eldest man of the Peng family turned around and said to the young man, "Pei Yan set up this auction just to make several families kill each other. I heard that the Wu family was the first to come Yes, with their family’s character, they will definitely be jumping up and down before the auction to find a way to find someone to join forces. At least, they cannot let Pei Yan control the price. We will just participate in one share when the time comes."
The young man hesitated to speak.
The eldest man of the Peng family said: "On October 1, you have to remember that the imperial court is going to close the shipping department. Only by joining forces can we withstand this risk. The auction will start in two days, so don't show up. Yes. Be careful when you go out at night. The Pei family is not simple. If you are discovered, think of your words early to avoid misunderstanding."
The small courtyard was suddenly occupied by seven or eight wealthy families, and the relationship between them was complicated. Everyone came here for the priceless map, and wandered around the courtyard without sleeping in the middle of the night. , it is easy to be thought to have ulterior motives.
The young man known as "Eleven" is exactly what Lin Jue calls "Master Peng Eleven".
He respectfully responded "Yes", raised his head but said unconvinced: "No matter how powerful the Pei family is, there is only one Pei You. Now that he is dead, the rest, Pei Xuan is weak and incompetent, and Pei Yan is arrogant. Big, but Pei Yan is still narrow-minded. After taking over the Pei family, he was not thinking about how to bring the Pei family to a higher level, but how to suppress the eldest son. In my opinion, even if the Pei family still has a few pounds of nails, it is just It’s just a rotten ship. Uncle, don’t worry about it.”
The eldest man of the Peng family frowned.
This nephew rarely had a literary name, and he won the imperial examination at a young age. The Peng family made great efforts to praise him, so that he and Gu Chang of the Gu family in Hangzhou were called "Yu Liang for a while." It is a pity that he was accidentally disfigured later and had no chance of an official career, so he could only help him take care of the general affairs. However, Gu Chang's official career was smooth and prosperous. His nephew was always unhappy and even began to be cynical. Several things that could have been resolved peacefully were made **** by him, which made people feel disgusted.
But his nephew is really smart.
He can do many things that others cannot do, so it would be a pity to abandon them and worry about using them.
Fortunately, he is quite filial, devoted enough to the affairs of the clan, and obedient enough to the elders of the clan. Even if he does not agree with the clan's decision, once the clan makes a decision, he will still abide by it. of.
This is why several elders in the clan feel that he should be trained more.
But he is also really noble.
The world's elites comment at will, and no one takes them seriously.
But times make heroes. No matter what happens to Pei Yan or Pei Xuan, they are serious two-ranked Jinshi. No matter how smart, agile, talented, and learned in literature and martial arts, they cannot be sold to the emperor's family, they can only watch others guide the country. , if you want to leave your name in history, you can only admit defeat and accept your fate!
However, now is not the time to tell him this. I will talk to him properly when I return to Fujian.
Otherwise, he really thinks that he can control these people, and he doesn’t know the heights of the world!
"This is the Pei family's territory. Even if the Pei family is a bad ship, you can't be careless." Mr. Peng told him, "Don't forget, at the beginning we also thought that the painting should be easy to get. I got it, what’s the result?”
A trace of cruelty flashed in Mr. Peng Shiyi's eyes.
At the beginning, the Peng family was afraid of alarming the Pei family and attracting the covetousness of other aristocratic families, so they decided to find a humble person to find a way to get the painting. He was one of the people who agreed.
"Uncle, I understand." Peng Shiyi lowered his head and said, "Nothing will go wrong this time."
Master Peng nodded.
He can rest assured that his nephew is doing things.
"I'll go meet with the Wu family later to see what the Wu family thinks about the auction." He mused, "Maybe we can join forces with the Wu family."
The part of the map that the Pei family showed them was the same as the map in their hands.
Now they have no way to judge what went wrong, or even whether the map in their hands is real or the Pei family's map is real. This forced their family to participate in the auction.
Mr. Pei is a kind man, but he has long heard of Pei Yan's unruly attitude. This was his first time dealing with Pei Yan. He didn't know how good Pei Yan was. If Pei Yan planned to use this map as a cash cow, their family might suffer a lot of bleeding.
This is nothing.
Whatever you lose, you gain.
I'm just afraid that the map they took is exactly the same as what their family has in their hands, or that the map the Pei family got is fake... That would make people vomit blood.
Although Pei Yan knew that the Peng family came here with bad intentions, he had a temperament that teased cats and dogs. The more like the Peng family, the more he wanted to provoke him. What did the Peng family want to do with him? They don't feel like facing a formidable enemy, so naturally they don't bother to send people to keep an eye on the Peng family.
Anyway, they had already moved into the Pei family, so there was nothing he wanted to know but couldn't.
He had the sedan parked in the alley at the back door of Yu's house.
Normally no one moves around here.
Especially in the afternoon, most of the men in Qingzhu Lane are in the shops, and the women are either resting or doing needlework, which is very quiet.
He warned A Ming: "Be careful not to disturb Mrs. Yu. I don't want to visit."
A Ming knew that their third master didn’t like to socialize, so he agreed repeatedly and went to the front door to knock.
The person who answered the door was Mrs. Chen. She heard that A Ming said that he was a boy from the Pei family who came to see Yu Tang. She also saw that he was fair, fat and cute, and she liked him very much, so she took him to Yu Tang without asking any questions. Tang there.
Yu Tang was surprised to see A Ming. When he found out the purpose of A Ming's visit, he was even more uneasy for a while before he figured it out.
She sent Shuangtao to get some peanut cakes for A Ming, and lowered her voice and asked A Ming: "You said that the third master wants to see me, and the sedan chair is at the back door of our house?"
A Ming nodded repeatedly. Seeing that Yu Tang was wearing a red silk trousers, her face was like white jade, and she was smiling, amiable and amiable. He informed Yu Tang: "The third master is probably here for He even asked about your family's mountain forest before coming here."
Yu Tang has wanted to see Pei Yan for a long time, and now it's better. When the sleepy person meets the person handing him a pillow, they are both friendly.
"Wait a minute!" Yu Tang was also afraid that Pei Yan would come home. His temperament makes no one feel comfortable in his presence. What's more, her mother had just taken medicine and lay down to rest. Knowing that Pei Yan was coming, she had to get up and entertain him personally no matter what. "I told my family that I will go see the third master right away."
Aming left happily holding the peanut cake given by Shuangtao. Yutang asked Shuangtao to help cover up and slipped out through the back door to see Pei Yan.
The weather was getting warmer day by day. Pei Yan wore a moon-white three-ribbed muslin straight jacket with a small cyan mark hanging on his waist. He stood there like a jade tree in the wind, with unparalleled grace.
Yu Tang admired it quietly.
I have no idea if I never want to see a real person.
"Why are you moving so slowly?" Pei Yan said displeased, "I'll ask you a few words and then leave."
There is nothing gentlemanly about him.
Yu Tang cursed in his heart.
If she hadn't been dressed "properly" today, she wouldn't have gone out so quickly!
However, thinking that A Ming said that Pei Yan came here because of their family's forest, she felt that she shouldn't be so stingy~IndoMTL.com~ shouldn't care about this with Pei Yan.
"Third Master, what do you want from me?" She got straight to the point.
Pei Yan didn't realize there was anything wrong with his tone. Yu Tang's straightforwardness also prevented him from beating around the bush and he was in a good mood.
"Have you decided what to plant in your forest?" He said in a brisk tone, "Spring plowing has passed. If you don't decide, you will have to delay another season."
Yu Tang was just trying to find out what Pei Yan was talking about, and these words played into her mind. She said: "I have always thought that planting sea buckthorn is good, but everyone told me not to plant it. I just want to ask you, if our forest was sold to your family, what would you plant?"
What does she mean?
Because it is of no use, you want to sell the forest to them?
Does he look like someone who was taken advantage of?
Pei Yan's face turned dark. He said: "You want to sell the forest to our family?"
"No, no." Yu Tang realized that Pei Yan had misunderstood and said hurriedly, "I meant 'if'. If it were you, what would you do?"
This assumption makes no sense.
Pei Yan was displeased and said, "I haven't thought about it. I don't know." After saying that, he continued as if he couldn't understand his hatred, "Unless your family can no longer survive, if you don't sell the land, it will Dead man, for the sake of my fellow villagers, I can help you. I bought the mountain forest at my own discretion. In order to give an explanation to my family, I can only hold my nose and think of a way. Then maybe I will think about it carefully. ."
