Delicate Flower Chapter 157: See you again

Lao An laughed when he heard this.

Most ordinary people would have such considerations.

The Yu family are all honest people.

"I didn't think carefully." Lao An said, "It's cold in the mountains. I will go home in a few days."

Sure enough, Laoan people didn’t go up the mountain for no reason.

It's just that it's none of her business, and it's not easy for her to inquire.

Lao An talked to Yu Tang about the Li family's land sale: "How did you think that the Li family did this intentionally?"

Yu Tang couldn’t say that she knew the Li family’s background because of her past life experience, so she could only say: “I know that Mrs. Li’s natal family is a big businessman in Fujian, and I have never heard that the Lin family is in trouble!”

The implication is that given the relationship between the Li family and the Lin family, if the Li family is really short of money, how can the Lin family sit idly by and ignore it?

Lao An nodded and was about to say something when a little maid came in and said that the second wife was here with the fifth lady.

"Let them in quickly." Lao An listened with a smile in his eyes. He obviously liked the second wife and the fifth lady very much.

I wonder what the relationship between the eldest wife and Lao An is like?

Yu Tang has never seen the eldest wife in Lao Anren.

The second wife and the fifth lady saw that Yu Tang was there. The second wife was okay and nodded to Yu Tang with a reserved smile. However, the fifth lady ran over quickly, shouted "Sister Yu" and asked happily She: "Are you also coming to our house to celebrate the New Year? Then do you want to make lanterns with me later? Amber and others will tell me to make lanterns."

Also? !

Who else?

Yu Tang was surprised.

The Pei family obviously had no intention of hiding it from her. The second wife smiled and said, "Something happened at Miss Gu's family. She will celebrate the New Year at our house this year."

What could happen to her family?

Yu Tang sneered in his heart.

Because of her stepmother, Gu Xi had a very bad relationship with her father and half-siblings. It could even be described as not caring about their life or death at all. Moreover, I never heard anything happened to her family in her previous life...

Could it be that the Gu and Pei families really had plans to marry, so Gu Xi made an excuse and Lao An took advantage of the situation and kept Gu Xi? !

She wanted to know what happened to the Gu family.

In her previous life, she might have inquired privately. But after resurrecting her life, she knew how much she weighed. Instead of playing tricks with people like Lao An, she might as well ask directly. If they were willing to tell her, she would listen. If they were not willing to tell her, she would just rest. That curiosity. So she did not hesitate, but said bluntly: "What happened to Miss Gu's family? Can't she go back to celebrate the New Year?"

Lao An and the second wife both looked surprised, and then they exchanged glances.

Don’t look at anything inappropriate, don’t say anything inappropriate. When it comes to other people’s privacy, most people don’t ask. Miss Yu is considered to have read books, so she should pretend not to know, but she didn't expect that she would ask it so bluntly.

Is this Miss Yu sensible or ignorant?

Lao An suppressed the confusion in his heart and rejected Yu Tang directly: "We can't say too much about the Gu family. We just received a letter from Miss Gu's brother, asking us to keep her here for the New Year. You will also meet Miss Gu later. You are similar in age, so you should get along well."

Yu Tang responded respectfully with a smile, but in her heart she wondered whether her arrival might be related to Gu Xi staying for the New Year.

She chatted with Lao An and the second wife for a while, and then she was sent off to rest by Lao An: "You just came today and sat in the sedan for a long time. In the afternoon, you will have a good rest in the house. In the evening Come and have dinner together."

Yu Tang responded with a smile.

Miss Wu took Yu Tang’s hand and begged Lao An: “I’ll help Sister Yu pack her things.”

The second wife smiled and scolded the fifth lady: "Don't be naughty. Let Miss Yu go to rest first."

Yu Tang likes Miss Fifth very much, and since she is new to a place, she feels she will feel safer having a familiar person around to make trouble. She smiled and said to the second wife: "Just let her go back to the guest room with me! With her here, I can have company."

The fifth lady hurriedly hugged Yu Tang’s arm and said to the second wife: “Mom, look, Sister Yu also wants to be my companion.”

The second wife wanted to stop her, but Lao An said: "Then you and Sister Yu can be your companions. However, you are not allowed to be naughty. If you are naughty, we will never allow you to run around again."

The fifth lady was happy and nodded repeatedly.

Yu Tang was also very happy, smiled and held the fifth lady's hand, and said goodbye to Lao An and the second wife.

The second wife could not help but complain a little, and said to Lao An: "Mother, you can't pamper her like this anymore. Look at the third girl in the third bedroom, she has a certain amount of progress and retreat at a young age, and she looks like a lady..."

Lao An interrupted the second wife and said, "But look at the fourth girl again!"

The second wife stopped talking.

Lao An continued: "Have the fifth girl been so lively and active before? It was hard to keep filial piety. It was not easy for her to meet someone she could talk to. You are a mother, don't you? I hope she can be happy? How many more years can a girl stay at home? When she gets married, I don’t know what the situation will be like. I don’t care about others. I can’t bear to leave her, the apple of our family’s eye. Suffer."

When the second wife heard this, she hurriedly said: "How can we! With you watching over her, even if we are negligent, she will not suffer!"

Lao An let out a light "hum" and said nothing more.

In the east wing where Yu Tang lived, she and Miss Wu were sitting on the Arhat bed in the inner room, drinking tea and watching Shuangtao instructing several maids and women in Pei Mansion to clean up the inner room.

Originally, these people were very energetic when they were assigned to Yu Tang's place. Now, in front of Miss Fifth, they act more quickly and carefully.

Miss Wu was very interested in the half-made silk flowers in the embroidery basket brought by Yu Tang.

She asked Yu Tang: "Can I learn too?"

Yu Tang smiled and said: "As long as you are willing."

Miss Fifth became happy and whispered to her: "My grandma's birthday is coming soon, and I want to give her something different. Sister Yu, teach me how to make a silk flower for my grandma... ...I'm going to ask Aunt Chen for some maroon red velvet. I don't know if it's enough. After Sister Yu has rested, I'll ask the maids to bring it to you to see... The three sisters will come over later... Mrs. Shen and Gu The young lady also went up the mountain with us... They live in the courtyard next to yours, which is bigger. Aunt Chen said that Mrs. Shen is Mr. Shen’s wife after all. She doesn’t look at the monk’s face and the Buddha’s face, so it would be better to arrange for them to live there. ...But the three sisters live here with us..."

Yu Tang listened with a smile and stopped asking about the Gu family.

In her opinion, since Lao An was unwilling to tell her, she should not inquire about it on any occasion. Although she was curious as hell.

But several other ladies from the Pei family would also come, which surprised her.

She asked: "Why are the second ladies here too?"

The fifth lady’s mind was entirely focused on the silk flowers in the embroidery basket. While she was carefully flipping through the various utensils in the embroidery basket, she said absently: “The third sister is going to get married soon. It’s my uncle’s wish. Let’s see the person first. The family wanted to take the opportunity to greet Lao An and let the third sister see the person. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and people are coming and going in the Pei family’s mansion. The third uncle and grandmother specially came to discuss with the grandmother. I agreed."

That makes sense.

But why should she be invited too?

She is not from the Pei family!

Yu Tang still hasn’t thought clearly.

But before she could think about it, Gu Xi suddenly came over.

Following her was Hexiang, the dowry maid from her previous life. Hexiang was also holding a basket in her hand, and she didn't know what it contained.

"I didn't expect to meet Miss Yu here again." Gu Xi smiled, raised her chin slightly, her tone was gentle but her expression was arrogant, exactly the same as when they first met in the previous life, which made Yu Tang feel dazed for a moment and almost There is no clear distinction between past and present lives.

She wondered, could it be that Gu Xi knew her identity, so he treated her like this?

But Gu Xi was obviously much more sincere and kind to the Fifth Miss. She said to the Fifth Miss: "The Buddhist incense I made a few days ago was ready, and I was going to take a box for you to try, but unexpectedly I went to your room. I just found out that you came to Miss Yu's place. Mrs. Shen caught the wind and cold again. I had to attend to the illness and couldn't wait in your room for too long, so I ran over."

As she spoke, Hexiang took out a black mother-of-pearl box.

The fifth lady’s personal maid, Ashan, hurriedly took the box.

"Thank you, Miss Gu." Fifth Miss said, her smile was shy and a bit childish. She didn't talk much, but she was not as lively and active as before.

Yutang's heart moved slightly, thoughtfully.

Gu Xi seemed to be used to Miss Fifth like this. She smiled apologetically at Yu Tang and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know Miss Yu was here before, so I brought a box of potpourri over here. When I usually read and write, It’s the best to use.”

Gu Xi liked to make incense in his previous life, and the incense he made was very famous in Lin'an. Many ladies from the gentry and scholar's families in Lin'an were proud to get the incense made by Gu Xi. Yu Tang had also obtained this potpourri in her previous life, and it smelled really fragrant, refreshing, and particularly pleasant. Unfortunately, she only got one box, and before she could use it up, Lin took away the remaining incense on the grounds that she was a widow and should not play extravagantly with things.

Later~IndoMTL.com~ she gradually adapted to the fresh air and didn’t like lighting incense much.

But she still accepted it with a smile - it would be good to give it as a gift to someone who likes to use incense in the future.

Gu Xi visited the place where Yu Tang lived.

The furniture, curtains, etc. all belong to the Pei family, but the hanging screens, flower cups, and teacups should be what they are used to at home.

The hanging screen is made of four plum, orchid, chrysanthemum and bamboo paintings painted in black lacquer and gold. The production, materials and patterns are very ordinary. The flower goblet is made of cloisonné that can be seen everywhere, not to mention the tea cup, which has no patterns or patterns. Color white porcelain. When she first moved in, there was a tea set like this on the round table. The little maid from the Pei family who was assigned to serve in her room told her that it was put there for good looks, and she would put it on when the person who came in would change it. When the tea sets come, they will naturally put them away.

The place where Yu Tang lived was clearly decorated, but the tea set was still on the table. Either she didn't know the rules of the Pei family or she didn't bring her usual things up the mountain.

If a rich girl goes to stay at someone else’s house but doesn’t bring her usual things, is she still a rich girl?
