Delicate Flower Chapter 153: Meet


Without preface, Yu Tang knew that Gu Xi was one year older than her.

But she still smiled slightly and reported the year of her birth.

Gu Xi pursed her lips and smiled, then turned to Pei Lao'an and Mrs. Shen and said, "She's my sister!"

Yu Tang was thinking about the grievances between the two of them in the past life, and the faces Gu Xi had shown to her. She didn't want to embarrass herself anymore, and call Gu Xi sisters.

"Miss Gu!" She called Gu Xi with a smile, and the alienation in her attitude was visible to the naked eye.

Gu Xi's face was silent, but his eyes shrank, and his smile was still lively and authentic: "Don't be upset, sister, I'm not usually like this. I just saw that my sister is so beautiful, and I really like it, so I can't help but feel a little disappointed. You must be careful. Sister, I will make amends for you." After saying that, he reached out and pulled Yu Tang's arm.

After hearing this, Yu Tang sneered in his heart.

Is this accusing her of having a bad temper?

Isn’t Gu Xi so stingy in his previous life?

Is it because I am not as depressed as when they first met in their previous life?

It can be seen how hypocritical Gu Xi’s kindness and generosity in his previous life were!

However, who doesn’t know how to use eye drops? !

She looked towards Lao An.

Lao An nodded secretly, thinking that although this young lady from the Yu family had some minor flaws, she was not bad at all. Although she introduced to Mrs. Shen and others that Miss Yu was her relative, Miss Yu was not after all. Gu Xi's enthusiasm for Yu Tang is obviously for her sake. The relationship between the elder sister and the younger sister may seem simple, but if they really come into contact, it will be deeply involved. Yu Tang was able to ask for her opinion at this critical moment, which shows that he still has a strong balance in his heart and is able to distinguish the important from the important.

"She is timid." Lao An smiled and started to protect Yu Tang, "Since you are a sister, don't be the same as her." After saying that, he turned his head and started to ask about Mrs. Shen. The reason for coming, "I remember you said that you have to take care of your little grandson at home. Mr. Shen has been in Lin'an for five or six years and I haven't seen you here. What about this time? Are you here to visit Mr. Shen? Or is there something going on at home? What if I If you can help, just say it. Let’s not talk about the relationship between Mr. Shen and our second son. When our old man was alive, the one he admired the most was Mr. Shen. The two of them often drank and went out together. Since you are here When you come to Lin'an, don't treat us like outsiders."

Not a word was mentioned about Yu Tang and Gu Xi Xu Chi.

The implication is that they are opposed to Gu Xi and Yu Tang becoming sisters.

Gu Xi bit her lip and glanced at Yu Tang quickly.

She has an outstanding appearance, and her movements are elegant and generous. At first glance, she doesn't come from a small family. So what kind of relationship is she with Lao An?

Why didn't Lao An let her have **** with Miss Yu?

Is it inappropriate for her to call Miss Yu "sister"?

As soon as the thought came to her mind, Gu Xi was startled by herself, and then her heart began to beat wildly.

Mrs. Shen is a generation younger than Lao An, and she came with Mrs. Shen. She looks like Mrs. Shen’s junior, that is, she is Lao An’s granddaughter... Could it be that this Miss Yu is Lao An? An Ren prepared for Mr. Pei San... his fiancée!

Gu Xi couldn't help but glance at Yu Tang again.

Yu Tang was quietly listening to Lao An's words and didn't notice Gu Xi's eyes. Moreover, even if she noticed Gu Xi's scrutiny, she wouldn't take it to heart.

In their previous life, they were sisters-in-law, living under the same roof, and she had no place to go, so there was nothing she could do about it. In this life, she has both parents and a brother and sister-in-law to help her. Even if Gu Xi dislikes her, why should she touch her!

On Mrs. Shen’s side, Yu Tang discovered something interesting.

According to Mrs. Shen, when she came to Ancheng, she was entrusted by Gu Chang to accompany Gu Xi. Pei Yan's aunt found out, so she asked her to bring some things over. In addition to food and medicinal materials, these things also included some popular scripts in Jiangnan in recent years.

Gu Xi is engaged to Li Duan. Is it appropriate for her to come to Ancheng like this?

If Gu Chang has something to do, he can't send his personal entourage or staff to help him. He wants to ask Mrs. Shen to accompany Gu Xi to Ancheng. Mrs. Shen comes to visit Pei's house, why should she bring Gu Xi with her?

No matter how he thought about it, Yu Tang felt that this matter was a bit strange.

But as long as Gu Xi's arrival does not involve the safety of the Yu family, it has nothing to do with her.

Yu Tang had no intention of asking more questions and continued to sit quietly beside him and listen to Lao An and Mrs. Shen talking.

Gu Xi was in a state of confusion.

It was just an excuse for her to come to An to meet Shen Shanyan. In fact, she came to meet Lao An, and it was best to make Lao An feel good about her.

Thinking of this, her face felt a little hot.

The Li family is of no use anymore. According to her brother, if the marriage with the Pei family can be successful, it would be the best choice. Especially since she had previously felt that since she had broken off her engagement with the Li family, it was best not to have anything to do with people in Lin'an City. As a result, Gu Chang told her about all the children of aristocratic families in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and there really was no more suitable candidate than Pei Yan.

Gu Chang also found out that the Pei family had high hopes for Pei Yan and would not marry any daughter who was not a third-rank official or above. Even the previous marriage contract between their family and the family of Li Xun, the Minister of Etiquette and the Wenyuan Pavilion scholar, was also true. of. But before the marriage between the two families was settled, Mrs. Pei left, and the marriage between Pei Yan and the Li family was put on hold.

Originally, they did not dare to fight with the Li family. After all, the Li family had a marriage contract with the Pei family. But just last month, I heard that the only third young lady of the Li family to be married was engaged to the son of Yang Shoudao, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy. This shows that the engagement between the Li family and the Pei family has changed.

It is difficult to find a son-in-law. For people like Pei Yan, everyone used to think that he had a verbal agreement with the Li family and would not take any chances with him. Now that he is free, once the news gets out, there is no telling how many people will be watching. Not to mention their Gu family, even the three aunts and six uncles of his mentor Zhang Ying's family would probably be eager to lure Pei Yan, the wealthy son-in-law, to their home.

Gu Xi thought about it and sighed secretly.

Compared between the two, the Gu family is better than the Qian family. But the bad thing is that the Gu family and the Pei family don't have much friendship, especially among the female family members. There is no one who can talk to the female family members of the Pei family. If their stepmother had been entrusted with the matter, their stepmother would have messed up the matter if she hadn't made Pei Yan her niece's son-in-law. As for other people, it is even less reliable.

After much thought, Gu Chang decided on Mrs. Shen.

Of course, with Mrs. Shen’s character, she is not the best person to do this, but Mrs. Shen can be allowed to take Gu Xi to the Pei family. If she can make Gu Xi stay in Lao An’s heart A good impression. Compared with other girls who heard about it, Gu Xi has a greater chance of winning.

Gu Xi thought simpler than Gu Chang.

If Pei Yan was not as good as her brother said, she would not agree to the marriage even if her brother insisted.

Instead of marrying a useless thing who has to deal with the back house and the front hall after marrying, she would rather stay at home forever, be a proud aunt, and live a carefree life at home.

It's just that she is very strong. Although she doesn't know if she has a fate with Pei Yan, but since she appears in front of Lao An and the Pei family, she will be her best self, show her best side, and let others When I talk about her, I give her a thumbs up and give her a thumbs up.

So it is especially important to leave a good impression in front of Pei Lao'an and the second wife of the Pei family.

Gu Xi drank tea in a dignified and elegant manner, secretly thinking about how to find out Yu Tang's origins.

The more Yu Tang listened to Mrs. Shen's words, the more strange he felt.

Mrs. Shen wanted to stay with Gu Xi at Pei's house for a few days. The reason was that Shen Shanyan did not rent a house by himself in Lin'an, but lived in the county school. There were too many scholars in the county school, and Shen Shanyan did not set up a house. There are differences between men and women in the inner house and the outer courtyard. It is inconvenient for her and Gu Xi to live there.

Yu Tang couldn't hold it back and glanced at Mrs. Shen in surprise.

Shouldn't you be happy after not seeing your husband for such a long time and find a chance to stay with him if you don't have the chance? Why do you stay away from Mrs. Shen when you get there?

No matter how dull Yu Tang was, he could still tell that Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen were at odds.

Is this one of the reasons why Mr. Shen came to Lin'an without bringing his family?

She didn't know the answer, but she could see clearly that Lao An didn't like Mrs. Shen.

"You are the master's wife, what's the inconvenience?" Lao An was even a little harsh when he said this, "I think you just follow the rules too much sometimes. At this age, you can still relax as long as you can It’s better to relax.”

Mrs. Shen obviously didn’t like hearing what Lao An said. She said, “If it’s not convenient for Lao An here, I’ll go to the inn to stay for two days. But I’m not worried about Miss Gu following me. Please ask Lao An.” They took her in for a few days."

That's true.

No matter how good the inn is, you are still afraid of meeting someone who is not stingy.

Lao An frowned, but finally took a step back and said: "I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for you to come and go to the county school. Since you think it's okay, it's okay for me here. I think you can move in now. . I don’t have much else here, except that there are many guest rooms. Whichever room you want to stay in."

Mrs. Shen and Gu Xi just moved in.

When she was leaving, Yu Tang asked Aunt Ji who escorted her out: "Does Hemingtang have many rooms?"

She looked at Hemingtang, which was just a courtyard with five rooms and three entrances.

Aunt Ji has become more and more familiar with her these days, and she speaks more casually. ~IndoMTL.com~ The five-entry courtyard next to it is also where Hemingtang is. She whispered to Yu Tang, "Heming Hall was the place where the widowed Lao An people and old ladies of the Pei family lived in the past, so there are naturally many rooms." However, in recent years, the Pei family has been blessed with good fortune and longevity. Few people like the old man left so early, and there was no concubine, so the room was empty. ”

Yu Tang shuddered.

Inexplicably, He Mingtang feels a bit eerie.

Aunt Ji laughed when she saw it and said: "You came to pay homage to the old man last time. The Pei family is a big family and they are very particular. If a member of the family fails, there is a special yard. Where is the Heming Hall? Is it eerie?"

Yu Tang smiled sheepishly.

Aunt Ji said: "Besides, if you don't do anything bad in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night. What's there to be afraid of!"

Isn’t it because her experiences were so unbelievable that she firmly believed in some things?

Yu Tang muttered in his heart and got on the sedan chair to go home.
