Delicate Flower Chapter 275: Sorry
When Gu Chang thought of this, he inevitably thought of Yu Tang.
When Yin Hao proposed marriage to him, he was indeed very surprised.
He had never thought of marrying a daughter of a wealthy family.
Firstly, his external image has always been that he is indifferent to fame and fortune and does not seek wealth. Secondly, he is afraid of being implicated by his wife and family, so he was forced to take sides when the second and third princes were competing for the heir apparent.
But Yin Hao's words moved him.
Yin Hao asked him: "Do you think the Gu family can support you to become a third-grade official?"
The Gu family can't do it.
Although his uncle was just a scholar, he was extremely sophisticated in people's ways. Such a person would be considered a talent in any family, but he was forced by his father to separate the clan.
He hesitated.
Miss Yu’s smiling face flashed through my mind again.
So beautiful that you can’t help but smile too.
But with such talent and beauty, a well-behaved family would not dare to take her as a concubine.
It's so outstanding that it's easy for wives and concubines to quarrel and bring disaster to their descendants.
Anyone who dares to take her as a concubine is either a noble noble of the feudal lord, or someone who doesn't care about fighting in the inner house.
Gu Chang surrendered.
In the final analysis, it is because the Yin family is too powerful.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for him to marry the Yin family, so he has never thought of marrying a daughter of a wealthy family
Gu Chang asked himself, shaking his head with a wry smile.
Maybe this is the best outcome.
He married a daughter of the Yin family, and Pei Yan took Miss Yu as his concubine.
Maybe only people like Pei Yan can do whatever they want.
Since he is working at home, he also has time and energy to balance the relationship between his wife and concubines.
Gu Chang took a sip of tea.
Maybe this is a good thing.
Pei Yan doesn't have that much time to mind outside affairs.
And he can focus on competing for a higher position in his official career.
Now that you have decided to marry a wife, you should manage your marriage well. No matter what nostalgia you had in the past, you should forget about it and be good to your wife without any distractions.
Husbands and wives are also partners.
If you don’t pay attention, the boat will capsize.
If this boat capsizes, it will affect our children.
Without inheritance, what is the meaning of his life’s struggles
What Gu Chang longs for is not only to leave a name in history, but also to leave a good reputation in the family tree.
Gu Chang opened the window and looked at the rising sun outside. He took a long breath and felt that no matter how bad his life would be in the future, it would not be worse than now.
He called Gao Sheng loudly and said: "Let's go back"
His father still had to intervene in the marriage with the Yin family. He had better write a letter and send it to the capital as quickly as possible, explaining tactfully to Sun Gao that this was his parents' order
As for Pei Yan, whom Gu Chang said he no longer envied, but who was actually often compared to him, he sat there refreshed and ate his breakfast while listening to the report from the fourth steward: "Yu I have ordered people to send those things that the lady bought back to Lin'an, and we will also help with the bills. Because of your suggestion, Mrs. Yang San changed her route to visit Mrs. Qin. In this way, they The trip back to Beijing should take two or three days." At this point, he hesitated for a while and then said: "Master Li's carriage has arrived at Jinhua and will arrive in Hangzhou soon. Are you waiting for Yang? The third wife and others will go back to Lin'an after they return to Beijing, or will they go back to Lin'an after meeting Mr. Li?"
Qin Wei, the outgoing Chief Secretary of Zhejiang Province, and his second wife’s natal brother once worked as colleagues in the Imperial College. Because of this close relationship, the Pei family had a close relationship and took great care of the Pei family when they were in office. Li Guang, who is about to take up his new post, has been an official in the Yunnan-Guizhou area and rose from the rank of county magistrate. The reason why he became Chief Secretary of Zhejiang this time was also a coincidence. It was a mistake made by several parties. The Pei family did not have direct friendship with him. Under this situation, if Pei Yan can stay here to support Li Guang when he takes office, and Qin Wei can guide him, I believe Li Guang will be very happy and will not easily offend the Pei family.
Unexpectedly, Pei Yan snorted disdainfully and said, "Don't worry about him. He earned his merits by suppressing bandits, and he is not from the same family as ours."
The fourth steward was shocked.
There are many chieftains in Yun and Gui, and the so-called bandits are mostly people from the village being suppressed.
He couldn't help but worry and said: "If this is the case, then shouldn't we be more responsible?"
Pei Yan felt that the fourth manager's mentality was wrong, and said to him sternly: "Although there is a saying that the assassination of the clan is exterminated, there is also a saying that the officials in the yamen are made of iron."
If Li Guang wants to play Yungui's tricks, the scholars in Jiangnan may not be willing to accept it.
The fourth manager knew that Pei Yan was very knowledgeable, otherwise the old man would not have entrusted the Pei family to Pei Yan before he died. He said nothing more, but smiled with complete trust: "Then I will prepare the boat for you. Then I will take Miss Yu back." He also explained to Pei Yan, "Miss Yu is a guest of our family. Yes, since we invited people here, we should send them back safely."
Pei Yan suddenly felt that this fourth manager was also a talented person and could definitely be the general manager.
Much better than Hu Xingke.
Pei Yan glanced at the fourth steward.
The Pei family only has three general manager positions.
If you want to choose four stewards to be the general manager, you have to pick one of them. No matter how you look at it, it is Hu Xing who is being fucked.
Or, add another general manager
It's easy to add a general steward, but I'm afraid that future sect leaders will follow the same example and add a general steward casually to raise some people who are free to eat.
It's best to **** off Hu Xing.
Let others see that in the Pei family, those who are capable work harder, and the more they work, the more they get.
However, Hu Xing took Dr. Yang to see Mrs. Yu, and then served as a servant in front of Lao An. He worked diligently, but it was still careless.
Otherwise, let Hu Xing serve Lao An specifically
Hu Xing can be allowed to continue to lead the monthly routine of the general manager.
This can be regarded as retaining Hu Xing's dignity and promoting one more person.
The more Pei Yan thought about it, the more feasible it became.
It’s just that I have to think carefully about how to tell Lao An about this matter.
Pei Yan made up his mind and looked cheerful. He was thinking about whether to go see Yu Tang and discuss with her about returning to Lin'an.
But before he could get up, Yin Hao came over.
He has already discussed with Gu Chang to cut the knot quickly. The head of the Gu family will come to propose marriage to Gu Chang in person tomorrow. He wants Pei Yan to help him accompany the guests of the Gu family.
Pei Yan didn't want to get involved in Gu Chaoyang's affairs.
He stared and said: "Have you made a mistake? My own marriage has not been settled yet. You actually asked me to accompany you and I won't do it."
Yin Hao was so angry that he said: "Can you tell me who else is suitable besides you? Speaking of which, you can be regarded as Gu Chaoyang's elder. When someone comes to your house to propose marriage, you should come out to entertain them, both logically and emotionally. Bar"
At this point, Pei Yan's eyes widened even more, and he said: "You two are getting married, why do you come to my house to propose marriage, and treat guests at my house? Is it because there are not enough good restaurants in Hangzhou, or is it that one of your families is lacking? Yinzi, when you and Gu Chaoyang talked about this, didn't you both feel something was wrong?"
Yin Hao said: "Didn't I come to Hangzhou quietly?"
Pei Yan sneered: "It's just a cover-up. If you think everyone really doesn't know you're coming, stop fooling yourself. If you make a reservation for tomorrow, I'll book a restaurant for you. I'll pay for the meal. Okay. Just think of it as an engagement gift from me, the elder, to Gu Chaoyang."
Yin Hao looked at him like he was joking and said in confusion: "Gu Chaoyang didn't offend you, did he? Why do you talk about him like he is incompatible with each other?"
Pei Yan was indeed upset when he saw Gu Chang, but he couldn't show it in front of Yin Hao at this time. Otherwise, Yin Hao would ask him, "Since Gu Chaoyang is not good, how do you recommend him to be our Yin family's son-in-law?" In the end, the marriage between the two families fell through, which would be troublesome.
He said: "I don't want others to involve me when they talk about Sun Gao. You will become an official in the court and will be promoted step by step. I can only guard my ancestral property in Lin'an City and be my squire. There are some people you can afford to offend, but I can’t. Just don’t drag me into this.”
Yin Hao suddenly realized, patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, as long as you call me Brother Yin, I won't let others bully your Pei family. Isn't he just Li Guang? I guarantee that he won't dare to touch him. Your family is a piece of grass."
Of course Pei Yan is not really afraid of Li Guang.
As long as his second brother recovers, the Pei family will have someone to talk to in the court. He is just looking for an excuse not to help Gu Chang, even for trivial matters. Therefore, no matter how touching Yin Hao's words were, they could not move him.
He ignored Yin Hao and called the fourth steward directly, asking him to book the best table at the best restaurant in Hangzhou City. He said, "You have finished the matter. Remember to tell the Gu family."
When the fourth steward heard this, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and then he whispered his promise and retreated.
Yin Hao was too late to stop him.
Pei Yan patted Yin Hao on the shoulder, looking like an elder lecturing a younger one, and said seriously: "If you don't believe me, just ask Mrs. Yang San. Let's see if I did the right thing or you. Done right."
After hearing this, Yin Hao immediately withered.
He has been pampered since he was a child, and his aunts and sisters help him take care of everything. Although he is the head of the Yin family~IndoMTL.com~, he is not good at handling these relationships.
Pei Yan did not let him go and continued: "If you still can't believe it, just ask Mr. Tao. He will never lie to you."
Yin Hao no longer wanted to ask anyone, he just accepted his fate and said: "Okay. I'll go tell my aunt. If a matchmaker is invited over there, my aunt will definitely have to come forward."
Pei Yan said: "As long as you're not at my house."
Yin Hao shook his head helplessly and went to Mrs. Yang San's place.
After knowing this, Mrs. Yang San smiled and said: "I'm still thinking about your meeting with the Gu family tomorrow, and I always feel that something is inappropriate. With Pei Xiaguang making such a fuss, this is really the reason why our two families are married. It stands to reason that we should worship our ancestors and let them know about it. This is the Pei family's mansion after all. How can we worship our ancestors in the Pei family's mansion? I think Pei Xiaguang did the right thing. Not only can we not It’s better not to give gifts to the Pei family when we receive people from the Gu family here. I think we might as well buy a house. When Ah Zhi comes out of the palace, it can be used as her dowry, and we can have a place to stay when we come to Hangzhou in the future. place."
Yin Hao's eyes lit up, he high-fived "Okay", and immediately asked the fourth manager to help him buy a house: "It doesn't matter how big or small, the location must be good, and it must be convenient for travel. It's best to stay away from you. It's relatively close, so I can take care of you in the future."
The fourth manager didn't think much about it. He reported to Pei Yan and called someone he knew well to come over and help the Yin family get organized.
