Delicate Flower Chapter 158: Laughter
Gu Xi thought of the investigation she had done on Yu Tang.
A native of Lin'an, the daughter of a scholar's family, her family only had a shop, one hundred acres of water, and three or four servants.
She used to think that the Yu family was low-key and reserved and didn't want to cause trouble, but now it seems that they are probably really poor.
Gu Xi's slender white fingers gently touched the bright and dust-free black tabletop, and she smiled silently. Then she turned around and said to Yu Tang in a warm voice: "Miss Yu, I'll leave first. Yes. I will visit again when Mrs. Shen gets better."
Yu Tang smiled and nodded, without even asking how Mrs. Shen was doing, and watched Shuangtao send Gu Xi away.
Then Yu Tang heard the fifth lady next to him let out an almost inaudible sigh.
Is Fifth Miss nervous when facing Gu Xi?
Yu Tang looked at Miss Fifth in confusion.
Miss Fifth's face immediately turned red and she murmured: "Miss Gu, you are very powerful. You can do everything. I am timid..."
Does this make her feel stressed?
Yu Tang held back not to laugh out loud.
Gu Xi was also like this in his previous life. Whenever he appeared, he would become the center of attention. Even if she restrained herself in front of the Pei family in this life, the things engraved in her bones could not be changed easily. If she really wanted something, she would never have imagined that those things she was proud of would become Is it an obstacle for her to integrate into the Pei family?
Yu Tang just wanted to throw his head back and laugh.
She comforted Miss Fifth in a bright mood: "It's okay, it's okay. After all, there are only a few people as powerful as Miss Gu. We are all ordinary people, so just watch from a distance."
The fifth lady nodded repeatedly, looked at Yu Tang a little closer, and said, "Miss Gu plays well with the second and fourth sisters, and the third sister likes to play with me."
Yu Tang thought of the arrogant second lady and the quick-eyed fourth lady.
In other words, Gu Xi currently has the second and fourth young ladies under his wing.
She was a little surprised.
She thought that the third young lady who was self-disciplined and polite would like Gu Xi more, while the arrogant second young lady would compete with Gu Xi for beauty.
It can be seen that she sometimes makes mistakes.
Yu Tang pursed her lips and smiled. She returned to the inner room and saw that the maids had already made the bed. She was also a little tired, so she asked the fifth young lady: "Do you want to rest with me? We will meet again later. Go and say hello to Lao An."
Miss Wu thought for a while and agreed happily.
The maid serving the fifth young lady came in to remove the fifth young lady’s makeup and smoke the quilt.
After a busy period, the two of them lay down side by side.
The little maids put down the gauze curtain.
Miss Fifth saw that the top of the gauze tent was the ordinary white silver bar tent that was originally hung here. She couldn't help but said: "Sister Yu, what color do you like? I asked Ashan to get one for you. I have it there. There are many gauze tents and flower tents, I will give you one."
"No need." Yu Tang understood what she meant.
In the previous life, when the young lady from the Lin family came to visit the Li family, she would only use the one she brought, not to mention the curtains and bedding, but also the toilet.
She is not so particular.
Of course, it's also because she can't be particular.
And whether it was in her previous life or this life, she had never had the habit of trying to look fat.
"I'm only staying here for a few days. It's too much trouble to go back and forth." She smiled and turned sideways, looking at Miss Fifth, "Besides, I think even if I brought it from home The things you have are similar to what you use to decorate the guest room, so don’t bother our little boy.”
Seeing her sincerity, the fifth lady laughed softly and said, "Sister Yu, shall I give you a heater? My aunt sent it from Jinling. She said it was the latest style in Jinling. , I think it looks good too."
Yu Tang remembered that the second wife’s natal brother seemed to be an official in Jinling.
Seeing that the fifth lady was speaking sincerely, she couldn't help but spoil the little girl's interest. She quickly smiled and thanked her: "That's great! It's easy to say that your house is burning earth dragon. When I was at home, I couldn't even write big words." After practicing, my hands were frozen for a while after I stretched them out."
Miss Wu has obviously never lived in a house without an earth dragon. She didn't have any doubts when she said this, and she was secretly happy that she had given the right thing.
The two of them laughed and talked for a long time, sleep gradually came over them, and they both fell asleep slowly.
When the two of them were woken up, it was almost Shenzheng time. The fifth lady hurriedly sat up and said anxiously: "It's over, it's over, it's too late, it's too late!"
Ashan is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. It is said that she has been serving the fifth lady since she was born. After all, she was older than the Fifth Miss. She smiled calmly and said: "Fifth Miss, don't worry, it's a good time to get up and get dressed."
Miss Fifth glanced to the side and saw Yu Tang's calm face. She relaxed, stroked her chest, smiled calmly at Yu Tang, and explained: "I, I'm always in a daze. Oh, it’s been too late several times..."
After all, Yu Tang is not really a seventeen-year-old girl. At this time in her previous life, she might have thought Fifth Miss was ridiculous, but now, she only thinks Fifth Miss is cute.
"Take your time." She comforted Miss Fifth, "If it's too late, won't I still be with you?"
The fifth lady smiled shyly, and while letting Ashan help her get up, she asked Ashan: "Are any of the sisters here?"
Ashan smiled and said: "I just went up the mountain. I guess I haven't settled down yet. After the lady has packed up, we will go to greet Lao An together."
The fifth lady looked more relaxed.
Yu Tang was secretly surprised.
Looking at the second wife, she seems to be a very talkative person. How come she looks so tightly controlled when she arrives at the fifth lady’s place?
They dressed up and went out, and just as Ashan said, they met three other ladies from the Pei family at the door of the main hall who came to greet Lao An.
The second young lady is still as proud as before. She wears a honey-colored t-shirt with silver-red edges, holds a gilt plum pattern hand stove in her hand, and holds her head high when looking at people. .
The third lady wore a moon-white armor trimmed with chinchilla fur, and a white rabbit fur muff. It was so fluffy that one look at it could warm your heart.
When she saw Yu Tang and Fifth Miss, she politely called "Sister Yu" and "Fifth Sister".
The fourth lady ran over happily, took the fifth lady's hand, said hello to Yu Tang, and then started chattering about the preparations for the new year at home. The light green cloak looks particularly vibrant in this winter.
Perhaps the people in the room heard the noise, or perhaps a little maid had gone in to report it before. Aunt Chen came out with a smile, lifted the curtain for them, and said to them: "Lao An, I think some young ladies should be there." Here we are, just as we were told to go down and let us boil the sweet-scented osmanthus honey, several ladies came over."
Everyone entered the house laughing.
The Fourth Miss allowed her maid to help her take off her outer cloak, and laughed loudly: "Grandma is the best. She knows that we want to drink osmanthus honey. She is also very powerful! You can tell by counting with your fingers that we want to drink osmanthus honey." Coming over."
Lao An was amused and laughed.
The fourth lady took the fifth lady and was the first to run up to Lao An and salute him.
Lao An accepted her gift and gave her a jade object to play with.
The fourth lady was so happy that her eyes turned into crescent moons.
Yu Tang thought that the second young lady would compete with the fourth young lady for favor, but unexpectedly the second young lady didn't say anything. Together with her and the third young lady, she stepped forward and saluted Lao An.
Lao An looked at the group of beautiful little sisters in front of him, his eyebrows stretched, and he said: "The Chinese New Year is almost here, let you go up the mountain to be brisk and brisk, but you are not allowed to run around, otherwise I won't take you out to play next time! ”
Everyone thanked him together and sat around Lao An with a soft smile.
Lao An asked him what he was doing these days and how his calligraphy was doing. The atmosphere was very harmonious and warm.
From the corner of his eye, Yu Tang couldn't help but look at the second young lady who was sitting quietly next to him several times.
The fourth young lady didn't know when she came close to her ear, and whispered softly: "Sister Yu, don't be surprised, the second sister is about to leave the government, and she is embarrassed to play with us."
Yu Tang suddenly understood, but was glared hard by the second lady who heard the fourth lady's words.
She could only smile apologetically at the second young lady.
The second lady turned away and ignored her.
Yu Tang couldn’t laugh or cry.
Aunt Ji came in and asked Lao An to tell me if I could have dinner.
Lao An waved his hand and said: "Place the food! The little girls must be hungry." He then said to them warmly: "The kitchen made eight-treasure rice today."
Which little girl doesn’t like sweets?
A few people cheered.
The fourth lady asked Lao An very lively: "Grandma, can we have dragon beard candy and gorgon cake tomorrow?"
Lao An smiled and said: "Okay, I'll let the kitchen cook it for you later."
The little girls cheered again.
Everyone was happy when a little maid came to report: "Mrs. Shen and Miss Gu are here."
Everyone was stunned.
The smile on Lao An's face faded a bit.
"Invite them in!" Lao An said.
Aunt Chen gently led the two people in.
Mrs. Shen looked like she was recovering from a serious illness, but Gu Xi was radiant. She was wearing a blue-colored silk trousers, which complemented her picturesque features and eyes.
Yu Tang's heart sank and he quickly glanced at Lao An.
There was no love or hate on Lao An's face, and he asked Mrs. Shen calmly: "Didn't I tell you to stay in bed and recuperate? Why did you get up? Are you okay?"
"Thank you, Mr. An." Mrs. Shen smiled weakly, "It's just an upset stomach, not a serious illness. Just take some medicine and it will be fine."
Lao Anren said: "You still have to have a good rest. ~IndoMTL.com~ Age is not forgiving. You are also a person who sits around and looks around. You are no better than before. You can't act according to your temper."
Mrs. Shen’s face changed slightly.
Gu Xi hurriedly said: "Aunt Shen, let me help you sit down and talk!"
As if to smooth things over, Mrs. Chen immediately moved an embroidery pier with a smile and placed it behind Mrs. Shen, saying: "Sit down!"
Mrs. Shen sat down with a pale face, glanced at the ladies of the Pei family, and said, "Didn't I hear that several ladies have gone up the mountain and came here to say hello?"
Lao An said neither softly nor hard: "You are an elder. Even if you want to say hello, they are the ones who go to say hello to you. You have to make the trip in person."
Mrs. Shen said: "Our family is not like other families, so there is no need to be so particular."
Lao An raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
Miss Pei was still young, and Yu Tang was an outsider, so it was okay, but the second lady snorted coldly.
