Delicate Flower Chapter 212: Undercurrent

The female members of the Wu family did not stay with Pei Laoan for a long time, but Mrs. Chen was taken by Mrs. Yang San to recognize all the female members of the Pei family. After returning from lunch at Pei Lao'an's place, Miss Xu followed Yu Tang to the side room where Chen and Yu Tang were resting. Yu Tang gave her half a bottle of fragrant dew. Miss Xu was very happy and said: "This The fragrance is delicious." He also said, "Don't worry, sister Yu, I will return a bottle to you in a few days."

Although Yu Tang liked this fragrant dew very much, she found out that it was also sold in Hangzhou, and it was not something she could only ask for, so she smiled and said, "No, just take it and use it if you like it."

Miss Xu was not too polite and said: "Then I would like to thank you first." After that, she stood up and left: "Sister, take a nap first, I will come to play with you later." Then she pointed. The wing room they live in is next door, "Mrs. Yang San and I live next door."

Yu Tang agreed and sent Miss Xu out with a smile, but turned around and was called to the east room by Mrs. Chen.

Ms. Chen was sitting in front of the big desk by the window writing. When she saw Yu Tang coming in, she hurriedly waved to her: "Come and help me take a look."

Yu Tang walked forward quickly with a smile and found that her mother was writing down the names and physical characteristics of the female members of the Pei family she met today.

"What are you doing?" She was a little confused.

Ms. Chen smiled and said: "We are from Lin'an after all. We had no contact with the Pei family before, but now we often walk around the Pei family. How can we meet the wives and grandmothers of the Pei family and not know each other? You also know our family, The population is simple. I have been with your father for so many years, and your father has protected me in everything. I have experienced few things, so I am afraid that I will forget and offend others when we meet again. I think that a good memory is not as good as a bad writing. I still have the impression that writing down all the people I met today will be beneficial to you in the future - not remembering other people's names incorrectly is also a sign of respect for others."

Yu Tang thinks her mother is right.

She took a chair and sat down next to her mother. Together with her mother, she recalled the people she met today and recorded what they looked like. From time to time, she would whisper a few comments about Pei. House gossip.

Just like playing games with her mother when she was a child, Yu Tang not only did not feel tired, but was also very interested and found it very interesting. If Miss Xu hadn't come to play with her, she wouldn't have realized that an hour had passed.

They forgot to take a nap.

The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled, but they were very happy in their hearts.

Yu Tang hugged her mother's arm and wondered if Miss Xu had the same fun as she and her mother did when she was studying family genealogy, so Miss Xu would know all about the relationships between those aristocratic families!

She suddenly became somewhat kind to Miss Xu.

When Miss Xu proudly took out a bottle of perfume that was exactly the same as hers, she smiled and praised her as if coaxing her little sister: "You are so awesome! You found a bottle exactly like mine so quickly. of fragrant dew, how did you do it."

Miss Xu was very happy to hear what she said. Her voice rose a little higher unconsciously, and she raised her eyebrows at Yu Tang and said, "Do you know what the Wu family does? They run water transport. They The family spends a lot of energy every year to manage the dignitaries in the capital. What do the dignitaries in the capital lack? At most, they are a little less curious about things that come from the sea. Your fragrant dew looks like something from the sea. I sent people to go to them. When asked by my family, their family immediately brought out seven or eight kinds of fragrant dew for me to choose from." After saying that, she blinked at Yutang like offering a treasure, "If the Wu family doesn't have it, I can also ask the Song family. The Song family is very ostentatious, and the women in their family will definitely show off such rare things." Finally, she said sincerely: "Sister will go to my place to play later, and she will also pick out a few bottles of other fragrances. Bring it here."

Yu Tang pursed his lips and smiled, saying: "You are so smart!"

"Of course." Miss Xu accepted it with peace of mind.

Yu Tang thanked her and accepted the fragrant dew she brought.

Miss Xu liked her even more.

I think she is not shy. Although she comes from an ordinary background, she is generous and truly neither humble nor overbearing.

She couldn't help but continue chatting with Yu Tang: "People from the Wu family are also famous for their beauty. Otherwise, their girl would not have been able to marry into the Jiang family and become the eldest daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. My aunt He said that it was because the Wu family used to be water bandits, and the wives they married were all beauties snatched from various places, so that their family members all grew fair and beautiful. However, the Jiang family also gave the Wu family a bad head. I have found out clearly that this time only two young masters from the Wu family came, but there were quite a few young ladies, ranging from eighteen to fourteen years old, and each one was prettier than the last. Including the one who was said to be no more beautiful than the one who married Jiang in their family. The eldest daughter of the family is the tenth daughter of the Wu family. I think the Wu family must want to marry their girl to Mr. Pei San."

Yu Tang was startled and said hurriedly: "Keep your voice down! Be careful that walls have ears and ruin other people's reputations."

But he did not question her guess.

Miss Xu was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, with bright eyes going to rub Yu Tang's head: "You are so interesting!"

Yu Tang tilted his head, avoided her hand, and said angrily: "I don't want to comb my hair again, don't touch my hair."

Miss Xu laughed again and promised: "Don't worry, I have brought a woman who knows how to comb hair and a maid who knows how to comb hair. I can send someone over to help you when the time comes."

Yu Tang secretly clicked his tongue.

In a family like theirs, it would be nice to have a servant girl who could also comb her hair. Even when Gu Xi in her previous life married into the Li family, she only married a woman who could comb her hair. Gu Xi packed her clothes and ran errands for Gu Xi's wet nurse. The ladies of the Pei family only have one maid who knows how to comb their hair.

It can be seen that the Xu family is really rich.

Miss Xu asked Yu Tang again: "Are you really unable to visit Mr. Pei San? I'm so curious about what he looks like? Tell me, if something happens here, will he come in person? Look. After all, there are so many female relatives living here..."

Yu Tang was flustered when she heard this and stopped her: "What are you going to do? If something happens to the female family members living here because of you, do you think you can sleep peacefully in the future? Besides, hurry up. And Fida, why do you insist on forcing it? Aren’t we still going to stay in the temple for four days? How do you know that there will be no chance to see the third master of the Pei family in the future?"

"What you said makes sense." Miss Xu thought for a moment and said, "I was indeed too anxious."

Yu Tang felt something in his heart when he saw it, and said, "Why are you so anxious to see the third master of the Pei family?"

Miss Xu blushed and was silent for a moment before telling her in a low voice: "Our family also wants to marry my cousin to Pei Xiaguang. However, my cousin is only sixteen this year and is a bit young. We are about to get married, and I guess the Pei family will not agree. But listen to my uncle’s wishes, and I will give it a try regardless of whether he agrees or not."

Yu Tang opened his mouth wide, causing Miss Xu to laugh again.

She also knocked Yu Tang on the head and said: "Otherwise, why do you think Mrs. Yang San is here? You don't really think that everyone is here to listen to the lecture, right? It's Pei Lao'an, It’s not necessarily that I don’t have such thoughts.”

Yu Tang said nothing, feeling tight in his chest and looking a little unhappy.

Miss Xu was still immersed in her own thoughts and did not notice anything strange about Yu Tang. She continued to talk: "I don't know which other families will come over. I took a look at the ones that are here now. , maybe it’s just the Peng family that doesn’t mean this. Ah…” She suddenly exclaimed in a low voice, as if she had discovered something remarkable.

Yu Tang felt nervous because of her surprise and said quickly: "What's wrong?"

Miss Xu took Yu Tang's hand and whispered to her: "Do you think the Peng family is at odds with the Pei family? The Peng family is in Fujian, thousands of miles away. Why do they come here to join in the fun? ”

Yu Tang’s heart was beating fast.

Miss Xu is so smart.

The Pei family must be wary of the Peng family since the navigation map incident happened. But if the Peng family is also wary of the Pei family, does that mean that the Peng family has discovered that the Pei family is wary of them? If this is the case, one day the Peng family and the Pei family fall out, and it may not be so easy for the Pei family to deal with the Peng family.

Does Pei Yan know the attitude of the Peng family?

Yu Tang took a few deep breaths, and then his mood slowly calmed down, and his mind began to race rapidly.

No matter how smart Miss Xu is, she is definitely not as smart as Pei Yan. Since Miss Xu can see through things, Pei Yan must also be able to see through them.

She should believe Pei Yan.

Yu Tang took a few more deep breaths.

"Did I scare you?" Miss Xu, who realized that Yu Tang's face was a little pale, said in hindsight, "Are you feeling uncomfortable in any way?"

"No, no." Yu Tang was a little flustered and wanted to whitewash it, but she didn't know why she was flustered and why she wanted to whitewash it. "I have never thought about such a thing, so I was so surprised."

Miss Xu believed her.

She has seen too many girls like Yu Tang who usually only care about clothes and flowers and are not interested in outside things.

"I'm sorry.~IndoMTL.com~" She said apologetically, "I just like to think wildly. Don't take it to heart. I also make random guesses." Maybe it's because Fujian is too far away from here, so only a few female relatives of the Peng family came. My mother has told me several times about this, but I am just too idle. ”

"No, you are good like this." Yu Tang saw her frustrated and comforted her, "I also like to guess like this sometimes. However, you know more than me, and we guess different things. That's it. Like me, sometimes when I see the maid next door carrying a basket of pickles when she goes out, but the basket is empty when she comes back, I will wonder if she secretly exchanged the pickles for money."

Miss Xu laughed, her eyebrows raised, and said, "Did you guess it right?"

"I don't know!" Yu Tang smiled, "I've never had the chance to confirm it."

"But I guess right most of the time." Miss Xu said, "Yin Mingyuan has been ill since he was a child, and he can't see the wind or rain, but he has to study at our house and wants me to play with him. If I If I don't take him with me, he will cry, and the maids and women around him will go to my grandmother to complain." She angrily said, "I had to accompany him to study. Later, when I grew up, I knew how to deal with him - I don't talk to him."
