Delicate Flower Chapter 335: Heartbeat
As for after the tenth day of the lunar month, it wasn’t that Pei Yan didn’t want to take Yu Tang with him, but that Mr. Wu began to visit Pei Yan frequently after learning that the Pei family intended to sponsor the government office to hold the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival. Pei Yan didn’t want Yu Tang to see him. The foreigner had no choice but to leave Yu Tang at home, so when he discussed the Lantern Festival with Mr. Wu, he could not help but occasionally show a bit of impatience.
Master Wu didn't know the reason, but he just thought that Pei Yan was impatient with these trivial matters. In the next few days, he did not bother Pei Yan with a look, allowing Pei Yan to take Yu Tang to visit the lantern festival.
When the lights were turned off, the sky was clear for several days and the wind warmed my face, no longer as cold as before.
Yu Tang bought some Gastrodia elata, Polygonum multiflorum, and ginseng from shopkeeper Tong Da, put them in paper boxes, and Qing Yuan carried them to the second wife.
They have decided to leave for Shandong on the 20th. They have packed their things and are just waiting to pay homage to Old Mrs. Pei before setting off.
The fifth lady of the Pei family was full of reluctance. She hugged Yu Tang's arm and said to her repeatedly: "You can talk to your third uncle about it and go to Shandong to visit us. My father said in a letter that Shandong The inspector used to visit the Imperial College with his third uncle, and he admires him very much. This time my father went to Shandong, he got a lot of help from him. When the time comes, you can find a way to encourage your third uncle to take you there with him."
Is there such a friendship in the officialdom? !
The villain in Yu Tang's heart wiped his forehead, while she smiled and pinched Miss Fifth's cheek.
Miss Wu led Yu Tang to the hall.
The second wife had already packed everything she needed to pack. She was worried about the parrots Pei Hong had raised, and said to Yu Tang sadly: "I don't know if I can make it to Shandong alive."
Yu Tang felt that whoever raised him was responsible, so he smiled and asked Pei Hong: "Where did he go?"
At the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival, this boy bought more than a dozen lanterns with his entourage and walked on the street. Everyone avoided him, like a little bully. Pei Yan looked at him without saying anything at the time, but he He handed it over to Pei Man and asked him to send the second wife and his family to Shandong. Not only did he ask Pei Hong to follow Pei Man to help.
I don’t know if Pei Man can control this kid!
The second wife sighed and said: "The chief steward took me to the boat. All the boatmen will get on the boat tonight."
Because it was a long journey to Shandong, the Pei family parked their three-masted sailboat at Tiaoxi Pier for the second wife to use on the journey.
Yu Tang didn’t know what to say.
In the past, when Pei Xuan was around, Pei Hong was very obedient. But after Pei Xuan left, Pei Hong was like a cat let out of its cage, causing trouble every day.
However, Pei Lao'an also said, if children don't get into trouble, how about adults? It doesn't matter if you get into trouble, what matters is not getting into the same trouble again.
Yu Tang quite agrees.
The two chatted for a while, and then it was time for lunch. Pei Yan was not at home today.
Spring has begun, and Pei Yan will urge the farms to start plowing.
He is a bit busy during this time.
Yu Tang, the second wife and the fifth ladies went to Pei Lao'an's place to have a meal.
The second wife laughed, thinking that Yu Tang was quite well-behaved and knew that she often went to Pei Lao'an to keep her company, so she said: "The house has become more deserted after I left. You should move around more frequently in the future. ”
It stands to reason that Pei Laoan has two grandsons, Pei Tong and Pei Fei, and Pei Tong is married to a wife. Pei Laoan should be very lively around him, but for some unknown reason, Pei Laoan spared Pei. The eldest wife probably had a bad temper in this room, so she simply pretended to be sick and hid in her yard. As a result, the two brothers Pei and Tong didn't know what to do. He did not attend on the excuse of being ill.
Although Yu Tang and Gu Xi live under the same roof, Yu Tang has never met Gu Xi since she met Pei Lao'an on the first day of the new year.
Is this one of the benefits of marrying into a big family?
Yu Tang joked to himself in his heart, nodded towards the second wife with a smile, and said gratefully: "I know! Don't worry, second sister-in-law, I will definitely accompany my mother often in the future."
The second wife smiled with satisfaction.
The two went to Pei Lao'an's place side by side.
I never thought of entering Lao An’s courtyard, but I saw a man in his fifties who looked like a scholar in Tsing Yi standing in the middle of Lao An’s courtyard, accompanied by several young boys sweating profusely. He looked like he was in a dilemma.
The second wife and Yu Tang were both a little curious, so they quietly left the yard, turned a corner, and re-entered the yard from the backyard.
Aunt Ji must have gained the trust. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Aunt Ji.
She came forward and explained in a low voice: "He is Mr. Lao Zhang's staff, and he must see Lao An. He will not leave until Lao An sees him. But the third master is not here, so it is difficult to force him. It’s not better to drive people away than just leave them there. We don’t know what to do?”
The main reason is that Pei Laoan doesn't want to see him!
Yu Tang was thinking secretly in his heart, and had no idea to express his opinion. He could only say to Aunt Ji with some worry: "After all, he has served Mr. Zhang, so he has to give face, so you should just fight with him, no matter what How not to offend people to death."
Aunt Ji smiled bitterly and said: "We also know. But this is not the solution after all. It would be best if the third master can come back."
While talking, several people entered Pei Lao'an's hall.
Pei Lao'an was obviously a little unhappy, but he cheered up after seeing them and asked someone to bring candies to Yu Tang and Fifth Miss.
Yu Tang felt a little embarrassed thinking that he was an elder. Pei Lao'an, on the other hand, waved his hand disapprovingly and said with a smile: "You are only a few years older than A Dan. You can eat whatever you are told."
Yu Tang and others sat down around Pei Lao'an with a smile, and first peeled an orange for Pei Lao'an. As soon as Pei Lao'an took the orange, he heard someone talking outside: "What are you doing again?" Why bother? Third uncle is not at home. Aren't you making things difficult for my grandmother by doing this?"
It’s Pei Tong’s voice.
Yu Tang and the second wife could not help but exchange looks.
The staff member's voice came from outside. Because the voice was dull, those in the room couldn't hear clearly what was said.
Pei Laoan's eyes suddenly became sharp. Her old man's face sank, he was silent for a long time, and said: "Please come in, the eldest young master and Mr. Chen!"
Aunt Chen sighed secretly and went to invite the two people in.
Yu Tang and the second wife avoided the study room on the east side. They waited until Pei Tong and Mr. Chen left before they came out.
Pei Laoan ordered the food to be served.
Yu Tang and the second wife couldn't help exchanging glances again, and they were both thinking about whether they should have lunch here.
Pei Laoan said: "It has nothing to do with you! You are here with me, which makes me feel better."
Yu Tang and the second wife responded with a smile, trying their best to tell some family jokes in an attempt to lighten the atmosphere.
Pei Laoan gradually had a smile on his face.
Yu Tang was thinking that when Pei Yan came back, he would tell Pei Yan and ask him to find a way to send this Zhang family staff member away. Otherwise, he would always beg for this and that, making everyone uncomfortable. .
I never thought that Pei Yan would not come back until almost dawn that day, and when he came back, his face would be full of exhaustion.
Yu Tang thought that he must have traveled most of the night, and felt extremely distressed. She quickly got up and helped him wash and change clothes, and asked Qing Yuan to bring in a bowl of black-bone chicken and ginseng soup that was stewed on the stove.
Pei Yan did not speak until he changed his clothes and washed his face, and the coolness of the night dew disappeared from his body. Then he hugged Yu Tang tightly and whispered: "Hold me for a while."
As if he had been hit, with a little dejection.
Yu Tang didn’t want to ask anything. He hugged Pei Yan hard and gently stroked his back, as if doing so would make him less tired and more warm. That’s Qing Yuanduan. After coming in with the chicken soup, Yu Tang did not hide as shyly as usual. Instead, he gently shook his head towards Qing Yuan and motioned her to put the chicken soup on the table gently. After she retreated, she said in a warm voice Di said to Pei Yan: "Would you like some chicken soup? Warm your stomach first, and then have a good sleep. Wait until you are full of energy."
Pei Yan leaned on Yu Tang's body for a while, and then said "hmm" in a low voice, but did not get up.
Yu Tang had no choice but to hug Pei Yan again, sit him down on the concubine's couch next to him, and go get the chicken soup.
Pei Yan drank it all in one gulp.
I don't know whether it was because he felt relieved or because the chicken soup really made people feel warm. Pei Yan's complexion improved a lot, but he still had no intention of talking to Yu Tang.
Yu Tang can quite understand this feeling.
In her previous life, when she knew that nine out of ten Li family members were the murderers of her family, she didn't want to say a word.
She served Pei Yan to rest.
Pei Yan closed his eyes, as if he was falling asleep from exhaustion, but Yu Tang had been too close to him, and you could tell from his breathing that he was not asleep, and he didn't want to talk much.
She held his hand tightly and said softly: "Asleep! I'll be watching over you. If there's anyone, I'll call you."
Pei Yan hugged Yu Tang twice, his breathing slowly became longer, and he fell asleep.
Yu Tang let out a long breath, and then realized that his vest was covered in sweat.
She was slightly startled.
She~IndoMTL.com~ seems to be more worried about Pei Yan than she thought...
Yutang couldn’t sleep anymore.
But Pei Yan still got up earlier than Yu Tang thought.
He said "Good morning" to Yu Tang with a smile on his face. His fair face was full of energy, with no hint of the depression from last night, and seemed to glow in the bright light of the morning.
Yu Tang sat up suddenly, feeling as if he was dreaming.
Pei Yan pinched her nose with a smile and said: "Get up quickly! The sun is going to burn your butt. Fortunately, my mother only asked you to go greet her on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year. Otherwise, you will definitely be like this. She has to be talked about as a lazy wife."
The more he acted like this, the less Yu Tang dared to ask.
Afraid of provoking his sadness, afraid that he is not ready to answer, afraid that he will not want to mention it again, afraid that he will be unhappy...and this "fear" is different from the previous "fear".
The "fear" I used to have was thinking that in the worst case, I would find a way to coax you.
The "fear" I feel now is that I feel distressed just thinking about it, and I feel distressed to the point that I can't breathe.
Yu Tang covered his chest with his hands.
Pei Yan looked at it and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"Oh," Yu Tang said, "No, I got up too quickly and was a little confused.
Pei Yan smiled and said: "Then get up and have breakfast. We will go see Mommy together later, and you can come back to catch up on your sleep."
Yu Tang’s heartbeat kept beating.
It's over, she felt sorry for Pei Yan, to the point where she didn't even want him to worry about her!
She must have fallen in love with Pei Yan, right? !
