Delicate Flower Chapter 282: Same hatred
Latest website: Mrs. Yang San could not help but praise shopkeeper Tong Er: "You are really capable!"
Shopkeeper Tong Er and Yourong Yan.
Mrs. Yang San led Yu Tang and Miss Xu to busy decorating the house here, while Yin Hao forced Pei Yan to go to the restaurant where he met the Gu family.
I don’t know how Gu Chang told his family that the person who came to discuss the marriage with the Yin family was Gu Chang’s uncle, the head of the Gu family, but Gu Chang’s father did not come forward.
Gu Shou's eyes lit up when he saw Pei Yan, he smiled and stepped forward to greet Pei Yan.
The last time Gu Xi and Pei Tong got engaged, it was Gu Xuan who came forward on behalf of the Gu family.
He said regretfully: "Last time I heard that you went to Huai'an, I was still thinking about how it was such an unlucky coincidence. I was also thinking about waiting for September to invite you over to eat crabs and enjoy chrysanthemums. Unexpectedly, our two families We are so destined to meet each other at Chaoyang's wedding, which shows that our two families are destined to be in-laws."
This was a bit flattering, and Gu Chaoyang felt very uncomfortable listening to it.
Fortunately, because of Gu Xi, Pei Yan and Gu Shou became equals, which prevented him from being too embarrassed.
Pei Yan looked down on the second wife of the Gu family very much. He had a fair impression of the head of Gu who had been supporting the Gu family. In addition, Gu Chang's marriage will be officially decided today. Gu Chang will definitely be in a lot of trouble in the future. He He was in a very good mood and did not hesitate to be gentle. He smiled and said to Gu Shou: "I didn't expect to see you here. Are you in good health? I heard my mother talk about the eldest son of your house a few days ago. You caught the cold, are you feeling better now?"
Of course Gu Shou's son is fine, otherwise Pei Yan wouldn't talk about it. Gu Shou smiled and said, "He just didn't listen to the old man and took off his clothes too early." Then he pulled his eldest son out to meet Pei Yan.
His eldest son was more than ten years older than Pei Yan. When he saw Pei Yan, he could only call him "Uncle Shi", which made Pei Yan feel better.
Everyone sat down to discuss Gu Chang's marriage. Pei Yan regarded himself as a decoration and said nothing. He also took the time to think about the forest at Yutang's house.
The best way is of course to replant other things, but if Yu Tang insists and does not agree to replant, then he can only work on the sea buckthorn tree.
Sea buckthorn trees... are very common in the northwest, but almost never seen in the south, especially in Lin'an. Can we work on this? Furthermore, he had to find someone to ask if there was anything special about the sea buckthorn fruit that could be used to fool people. It would be best if it could be used as medicine. When the time comes, it will be made into dried fruits or candied fruits, and I should be able to find a way to sell them.
Pei Yan finally stayed up until he had finished lunch. Thinking that they would discuss the specific engagement matters in the afternoon, he stopped waiting here and wanted to go back to see what Yu Tang was doing, but was pulled away by Gu Shou. Fang: "You are not someone else, I still need your help to make decisions on some things!"
Gu Shou took good care of the son and daughter left behind by his cousin's wife, especially when Gu Chang became successful and Gu Xi had an idea, he was more willing to lend a hand. .
Gu Chang’s father is unreliable. When he discussed Gu Chang’s engagement with Gu Chang’s father, Gu Chang’s father was quite happy at first. However, after listening to a few words from Gu Chang’s stepmother, he began to I care about money so much. He also said that if their family has written poems and books for generations, if they pay too much attention to money and material things, they may be looked down upon by other Jiangnan aristocratic families. Gu Chang's engagement, according to ancient etiquette, just find a way to get the right geese to send, and other tea, wine and snacks, as long as they are in pairs.
He almost said that he would only send a pair of wild geese.
Gu Shou knew that he could not count on Gu Chang's father in this matter. But he could not break the clan rules and spend more money on Gu Chang's marriage, nor could he use his own money to subsidize Gu Chang.
Thinking of Gu Chang's shabby appearance when he got married, and thinking of how Gu Chang made himself look glamorous and respectable no matter where he went, in addition to feeling sad, he also wanted to help Gu Chang and Gu Xi.
The best way is to have Pei Yan present as a witness. It is not that Gu Chang has neglected his in-laws, but that Gu Chang's father is shameless and unwilling to spend money on his eldest son. In this way, when Gu Xi comes out of the cabinet, if it is a dowry Even though she is not very good-looking, Pei Yan can tolerate her and may even pity Gu Xi because of it. If she says a few nice words for Gu Xi in front of Pei Lao'an, Gu Xi's life in the Pei family will not be too sad.
He was very thoughtful and thoughtful, but he couldn't help Gu Chang feeling embarrassed. He said: "Uncle, Wang Qibao is in Hangzhou City. Xia Guang is a little busy these days. Don't force him." Then he said to Pei Yan, "It's all trivial matters here. You are not an outsider, so I won't get along with you." You're welcome."
When Pei Yan saw Gu Chang's forced smile, he knew that what happened next was not pretty. He didn't want others to know what role he played in the Yin and Gu family's marriage, let alone sit here. Ting Yin and Gu are at war with each other.
He stood up and left without ceremony.
Yin Hao will definitely keep him.
This is the first time that he has presided over the marriage of a younger member of the family, and it is also the first time that there are no "aunts" or "sisters" around to advise him. He is afraid that he will do something unruly and make the Yin family laugh. This is why he insisted on Pei Yan following him.
Now Pei Yan was about to leave. Seeing that the Gu family could not keep anyone, he immediately stood up and said to Gu Shou: "You are the elder, I will go and see off Ya Guang." After saying that, he also lost a He looked at Gu Chang and asked him to keep Gu Shou company.
Gu Chang nodded.
Yin Hao escorted Pei Yan out of the private room. He took just two steps and said, "You're gone. What will I do here?"
Pei Yan glanced at Yin Hao.
No wonder others say that the men of the Yin family can do nothing but study and serve as officials.
It seems that Yin Hao is also a master who has been spoiled by the "aunts" of the Yin family.
He said: "Didn't you bring a matchmaker? Let the matchmaker talk about it then. You can just nod or shake your head, don't you even know how to do this?"
Yin Hao raised his hand to pat Pei Yan on the head.
Pei Yan quickly took a few steps forward, avoided Yin Hao's palm, and said displeasedly: "Don't be rude to me just because you are my brother, or I will leave your family alone."
"Are you trying to take care of it?" Yin Hao quickly caught up with Pei Yan and said, "Can't I nod and shake my head? The question is not when to nod or when to shake my head. Is it appropriate for you to do so?" Talk. Don’t forget that this marriage was recommended by you. If my cousin doesn’t marry well, you won’t be able to live in peace."
Pei Yan did not feel any guilt at all and said: "If you feel bad, no matter how much I recommend you, you will never be tempted. Don't push everything on me."
I also feel that Yin Hao really has no merit except being an official and studying. He is also raising an illegitimate child outside. Thinking about it, he feels a little sympathy for Mrs. Yin.
Yin Hao grabbed his arm and said, "Hurry up and give me an idea. What should I do if their betrothal gift is very expensive? Otherwise, you open your private treasury and let me Pick two things."
All of them, old friends from aristocratic families, knew that Mr. Qian had left all his private collections to Pei Yan by name. He could only like or dislike the rare antiques that were difficult for others to find.
The Gu family is one of the four major surnames in the south of the Yangtze River. Although it has not been as good as before in recent years, the skinny camels are bigger than horses. If they give out some antiques, calligraphy and paintings as betrothal gifts, they will have to prepare corresponding things to accompany the aunt. They keep up the facade.
The Yin family is no worse than the Gu family, but the bad thing is that their family values their aunts more, so the aunts will be given a large dowry when they leave the court, and all the good things in the family are scattered everywhere. , which is also an important reason why the Yin family gradually had some financial difficulties when it came into Yin Hao's hands.
Pei Yan knew very well about the affairs of the Yin family. When he saw Yin Hao's plans for his private treasury, he couldn't help but said in a strange way: "I said why do you insist on me coming? It turns out that I am waiting here! But, what do you want? More. The Gu family can't give anything particularly expensive as a betrothal gift, so you don't have to worry about not being able to pay it back."
Yin Hao's heart tightened, he grabbed Pei Yan's shoulders and said, "What do you mean?"
Pei Yan felt that since the Gu family was not honest, he couldn't blame him for digging another hole for Gu Chang. Who asked him to provoke their little girl when he was free?
"My sister-in-law is looking forward to my nephew getting married soon!" He said, "But it is said that Miss Gu's dowry list has not been delivered yet."
In other words, the Gu family is dragging their daughter's marriage to get the Pei family to give in.
Yin Hao was stunned.
This is unimaginable to the Yin family.
Pei Yan looked at it and felt that Yin Hao and the Pei family were both victims, and he should be more lenient to Yin Hao. He couldn't help but said warmly: "You don't have to worry. The Yin family is interested in Gu Chaoyang and not his father. It doesn't matter what his father does. You just have to agree with the head of the Gu family what to do with your aunt's dowry. In the future, you will have a nephew. , is it the uncle who likes to be generous and buys pens, ink, paper, inkstones, snacks and candies? Or is he the grandfather who likes to be penniless?"
When Yin Hao heard this, he felt reassured and couldn't help but ask Pei Yan again: "How can I agree with the Gu family on my aunt's dowry?"
Pei Yan wanted to roll his eyes when he heard this, but thinking of Gu Chang, he still patiently asked Yin Hao: "What are the dowries of your aunts and their husbands' families who have left the pavilion?"
Yin Hao thought about it carefully and said: "There is no agreement! Since it is their dowry, it is naturally up to them to handle it themselves."
Alas! No wonder everyone was proud to marry a girl from the Yin family in the early years.
Pei Yandao: "We have to deal with different people in different ways. If it were me, and I met a family like the Gu family, I would make an agreement, what should I do if my aunt comes to dowry in their family? What if I get divorced? How to deal with it? What to do if you have children after marriage? What to do if you have no children?"
In short~IndoMTL.com~ we just cannot let the Gu family get benefits or take advantage.
Yin Hao, a man who never cared about the household affairs, suddenly realized that Pei Yan had opened a door for him. He eagerly said: "Look at me!"
As if to bully others.
However, it is true that he is going to bully people - before he is married, he is guarding against this and that. He clearly does not regard the people of the Gu family as gentlemen.
Pei Yan curled his lips and decided to add more firewood: "I can't help it, who made the elders of the Gu family so unreliable? I don't know how to handle my nephew's marriage now? Fortunately, the old man's filial piety period has not passed yet, so he can help them cover up one or two."
Yin Haoden felt the same hatred as the enemy and said to Pei Yan: "If it weren't for Gu Chaoyang, who would have the patience to deal with such a family?"
Pei Yan smiled and said, "Who says it's not the case?"
Then he walked away.
