Delicate Flower Chapter 171: Guess

The snow that had stopped before suddenly fell down again, covering the ground with a thin layer, shining brightly under the light. The biting wind blows against your face, making you feel cold but also a little fresh.

It has been half a month since she came to the Pei Family Courtyard. She will be going back in a few days. I wonder how her parents, brother and sister-in-law are doing at home? I wonder if Lao An’s anger will subside tomorrow? She has been making silk flowers with Fifth Miss these days. The quantity is not only enough for Fifth Miss as a gift, but she can also give some to the servants of the Pei family. So starting from tomorrow, will she start making some close-fitting clothes for her brother-in-law's baby who will be born next spring?

Yu Tang was thinking randomly, but his thoughts couldn't help but drift to Pei Yan.

Pei Yan is such a proud person. If the Li family really breaks off their engagement with him, he will definitely feel very uncomfortable. I don’t know how he survived that time? There is also the Li family. Pei Yan must be good-looking and talented. In addition to having a slightly bad temper, this "badness" is not just irritable or cruel, but the impatience caused by being too smart. , how could the Li family be willing to give up such a golden son-in-law?

Yu Tang couldn’t figure it out.

Could it be true, as Mrs. Shen said, that Pei Yan was not very satisfied with Miss Li's family, so she delayed coming to propose marriage? The Li family had no choice but to bow their heads and ask Pei Yan to marry their own daughter. Find a husband for your daughter again?

Or, is there something about the young lady from the Li family that makes Pei Yan dissatisfied?

Otherwise, why would Lao An say that Pei Yan’s marriage had to be agreed to by himself!

Yu Tang suddenly felt as if he had discovered something remarkable.

That's certainly the case.

Because Pei Yan did not agree to the Li family's marriage, although the Li family wanted to recruit Pei Yan as their son-in-law, Pei Yan did not agree, and the matter was delayed.

Thinking about it this way, you can understand both Mrs. Shen’s words and Lao An’s anger.

Satisfied, Yu Tang closed the window and got into bed again, wondering if she should find a chance to ask Pei Yan tomorrow. Pei Yan must know that such a big thing happened. Although Mrs. Shen's words were a bit presumptuous, it was more important to appease Lao An's anger. It would be better if she could know why the Pei and Li families failed to get married!

She smiled and closed her eyes.

I was still laughing even when I fell asleep.

In Gu Xi's inner room not far from Yu Tang, Gu Xi sat up suddenly.

He Xiang was startled, and hurriedly moved the lamp, took a jacket and wrapped it around Gu Xi, and whispered: "What's wrong, Miss? Are you having a nightmare?"

Of course they poured the decoction prescribed by the doctor quietly in the flower garden behind. However, the incident of waking up from their sleep in the middle of the night only happened when Gu Xi was young. Later, the eldest son was awarded the title of Juren, and Gu Xi I never had nightmares again.

Gu Xi shook her head and told He Xiang in a hoarse voice: "I'm a little thirsty."

Hexiang went to pour a cup of tea.

Gu Xi took a few sips slowly, and then said: "Pei Xiaguang must not be willing to marry the Li family and the Pei family. Moreover, there must be something happening that we don't know about, because of this matter , the Pei family left the matter of his marriage to himself."

It turned out to be this.

Hexiang didn't think too much and said softly: "It's getting late. I don't know what will happen tomorrow? You'd better rest early so that you can deal with the people and things tomorrow."

Gu Xi handed the teacup to Hexiang and leaned on the pillow at the head of the bed, but showed no intention of sleeping, saying: "Tomorrow will be easy, I will pretend to be sick from beginning to end and won't go out. No matter what happens to Mrs. Shen, we just don’t get involved. I was thinking about the third master... Since he can make the decision on his marriage, I would be ashamed if Mrs. Shen did such a thing. Nandang, can you talk to the Third Master and ask him to send a letter to my brother and then send someone to take me back to Hangzhou City?"

He Xiang immediately understood what Gu Xi meant.

Her eyes lit up and she whispered: "Lao An is so angry. It is only natural for you to be afraid of Lao An. Please ask the third master to help you deliver a message to the eldest son and ask him to send someone to take you home. , no one can say anything."

Gu Xi pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Then it's settled. Let's wait until Mrs. Shen leaves and immediately ask the third master to help me be the master of the house."

He Xiang nodded repeatedly.

She believes that with the looks and talents of their young lady, no man can escape if she takes the initiative to show her kindness!

Gu Xi fell asleep contentedly.

The next day I was awakened by the noise in the courtyard.

She opened her eyes, and there was no one in the room. The noise from Mrs. Shen's side was even more disturbing.

Gu Xi thought for a while, took off her shoes, pushed the window slit and looked outside.

I saw Shen Shanyan wearing an autumn-colored chinchilla fur cloak, standing with a livid face outside Mrs. Shen's house, where several tall and thick women were moving things in a vulgar manner.

Mrs. Shen's cries came from the inner room over there.

Shen Shanyan sneered and said, "You have the nerve to cry! If I were you, I would cover my face and quietly go down the mountain from the back door of Pei's house, rush back to Hangzhou City overnight, and never set foot in Lin'an City again."

Gu Xi was stunned.

She did not expect that Lao An would evict people as soon as he said they would, and that he would notify Shen Shanyan so quickly.

She thought this matter would have to wait for a few days. When everyone calmed down, Mrs. Shen took the initiative to leave and maintain a semblance of respectability.

It seemed that Lao An was even more irritable than she thought, almost to the point where there was no sand in his eyes.

It's better now, Mrs. Shen has lost all face.

I wonder what Shen Shanyan will do with Mrs. Shen after she returns.

She once heard her stepmother say that the Shen family once threw erring wives into temples and stayed there for two or three years.

I wonder if Shen Shanyan will be like this?

Gu Xi sighed.

My heart felt cold.

I really can’t stand it anymore.

She turned around and went back to bed and lay down. Until Hexiang came in with hot water to help her wash up, she still looked gloomy. People who didn't know it thought she was really sick.

When Yu Tang got the news, Mrs. Shen had already left the other hospital. Shuangtao also whispered to her: "It is said that Mr. Shen even made a special trip to apologize to Miss Gu and said that he would let Miss Gu rest in peace and recover. He will be here in a few days." So I sent someone to take Miss Gu back to Hangzhou City."

Inexplicably, Yu Tang suddenly felt much brighter after hearing this.

She asked Shuangtao: "Is everything okay over there at Lao An?"

"It should be good!" Shuangtao replied with a somewhat uncertain smile, "Breakfast was served over there at the usual time. Lao An ate half a golden flower roll and drank half a bowl of mushrooms. I also ate soup and a red bean paste bun. Aunt Ji said that this was enough for Lao An people to eat well."

Yu Tang knew that Shuangtao had gone to Aunt Ji early in the morning to inquire about the news. He was very pleased that Shuangtao could help her so quickly and said, "Did Aunt Ji tell Lao An today?" What are your plans?"

"I didn't say it." Shuangtao said, "But when Mr. Shen came to say goodbye to Lao An, Lao An sighed to Mr. Shen, 'Your life has also been delayed by her.'"

Yu Tang was not interested in this, she said: "Did the third master come to say hello to Lao An this morning? Have they ever talked about this?"

"I didn't dare to ask about this." Shuangtao was replying when Liu Catkin's voice came from outside: "Miss Yu, Miss Fifth and Miss Four are here."

It’s too late for these two little girls!

Yu Tang quickly stopped the conversation, went out with a smile, and asked the two Pei ladies who entered her yard holding hands: "Why are you here so early? Have you had breakfast?"

After one night, the two little girls have returned to their usual tranquility. After hearing this, they all called "Sister Yu" and said: "We have had breakfast and want to go to Lao An with Sister Yu." Say hello."

From the courtyard where they lived to where she lived, we had to go around half of the main courtyard.

Yu Tang smiled and said, "Why did you come here? Where are the second and third young ladies?"

Miss Wu said: "They got up today and went to my uncle and aunt's house. My mother went to the flower hall to listen to the wives' reports, so the two of us came to see you."

When she said these words, her black eyes looked at her without blinking, like a kitten who was afraid of being abandoned by her, which was cute and heart-wrenching.

Yu Tang hurriedly put his hand on Miss Fifth's shoulder and said, "Are you afraid that Lao An's anger is still lingering? I'm quite scared too. However, these three cobblers still stand up to Zhuge Liang. Let's go there together so that we can strengthen each other's courage."

The two ladies became happy and urged Yu Tang to have breakfast quickly so that everyone could go to greet Lao An.

The fourth lady also asked whether to invite Gu Xi to go with her.

Yu Tang then thought that the Pei family ladies all lived in the same courtyard as Mr. Pei Laoan. They might not know what happened to Gu Xi, so they thought that Gu Xi was sick and Mrs. Shen was killed by Mr. Shen. I told the two Miss Pei that I was taken out of the other hospital.

The two Miss Pei were stunned after hearing this, while the Fifth Miss was worried and sympathetic: "Poor Sister Gu, she suffered such an unreasonable disaster, we should go and see her."

Yu Tang suspected that Gu Xi was pretending to be ill.

She was like this in her previous life. She liked to pretend to be sick when she wanted to avoid something.

But this is also the method used by most housewives~IndoMTL.com~It cannot be said to be good or bad.

She said: "That's okay. Let's go see her first, and then go and say hello to Lao An."

The two Miss Pei's said "Okay" in unison, urging her to have breakfast, and said: "My uncle and aunt get up very early every day. We are afraid that if we don't hurry up, we will arrive later than them."

Yu Tang quickly had breakfast and went with the two Miss Pei to check on Gu Xi's illness before going to Lao An's place.

They did arrive a little late.

Yi Lao'an and the second and third young ladies have already arrived. The second wife personally served the two Lao An to drink tea. When she saw them, she glared at the fifth young lady, but her voice was still gentle and authentic: "Why are you so so? Arrived late? I was just about to ask someone to call you!"

Miss Wu hurriedly said: "We went to see Miss Gu and she was sick."

The second wife did not speak.

The fifth young lady hurriedly pulled the fourth young lady forward to say hello to Mr. Yi Lao'an, while Yu Tang saluted Mr. Yi Lao'an after them.
