Delicate Flower Chapter 386: Qualifications

Mrs. Song Si's smile became a little more proud, and she said: "Yes! Before the wedding date was decided, the Wu family sent me a letter first, asking me to come over and help their family. I thought about it. I have never been to the capital before, so I came here shamelessly." After she finished speaking, she picked a piece of melon from the plate at hand and forked it into her mouth, "This melon is so delicious. It's sweeter than the ones we have there."

Yu Tang said a few perfunctory words to her and left Mrs. Song Si to have dinner at home.

Mrs. Song Si was not polite and happily agreed.

Yu Tang had no choice but to ask someone to invite the second wife to accompany him.

As soon as Mrs. Song saw the second wife, she happily held her hand and asked with concern: "I heard that the fifth lady is going to marry to the Qin family? How is it? Is the dowry ready? The wedding day has been set. No? Is there anything I can do to help?" He sighed again, "I really didn't expect that when Mr. Qin was appointed as the chief envoy of Zhejiang, I told the eldest wife in private that Mr. Qin, regardless of his character or The knowledge is first-rate, and Mrs. Qin also has a kind and gentle personality. I don’t know which daughter is so lucky to marry into the Qin family and become the eldest mistress. I didn’t expect that the person who married the Qin family was the fifth lady. You, my son-in-law What a great choice!”

This is what the second wife likes to hear most.

She immediately talked non-stop about Pei Dan's marriage to Mrs. Song Si.

Miss Song Qi walked quietly to Yu Tang's side, smiled softly and said to her: "Third Madam, I haven't seen each other since we said goodbye to Zhaoming Temple. Are you okay?"

She looks shy, like a frightened little animal, which is endearing.

She must be very clear about her purpose in coming to the capital. She must be worried about what kind of husband she can marry, not based on talent or ability but whether it will be beneficial to the Song family!

Yu Tang sighed in his heart, feeling a little sympathy for Miss Song Qi. She smiled warmly and said, "It's been a long time since I last saw you! How are you, Miss Six?"

The marriage of the original ladies and Miss Wu has been decided. No matter what, Peng Jiuye's son is about the same age as Miss Wu. Gu Xi has already left the government, and Pei Tong is barely considered a rich son-in-law in the eyes of many people. Now he has moved out to start his own business. If she manages her business well, she may not Not a good future.

Miss Song Qi looked slightly gloomy and said: "Sixth sister has also left the government. She married far away to Shuzhong. That family is in the medicinal materials business. Something happened to our drug store in Suzhou a few days ago. Six My brother-in-law’s family was of great help.”

In other words, Miss Song Liu also got married because of family interests.

Yu Tang could only comfort her: "That's good. After all, we have done business together, so we know the basics."

Miss Song Qi smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "Because of the matter at the medicine shop, our family and the sixth brother-in-law's family were actually quite unhappy. The sixth sister married into their family to compensate that family - that family We no longer do business in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, but instead do business with people from Jiangxi and the two lakes."

Is it because the Song family is sorry for others?

Yu Tang didn't hesitate to ask more questions for a while, but Miss Song Qi, if she felt something, it seemed that she had a lot of words suppressed in her heart and finally had a chance to talk. She continued in a low voice with some disregard: "Brother-in-law six married a man before. The housewife gave birth to three sons and a daughter. The sixth sister did not want to marry, but the family said that the sixth sister had a bad temper and would become enemies if she stayed around, so it would be better to just get married..."

When she said this, her eyes became moist, and she looked straight at Yu Tang, as if this matter had anything to do with Yu Tang.

Yu Tang was stunned and wanted to ask her what she meant, but suddenly the second wife took his arm, and the second wife’s laughing voice came to his ears: "The main reason is that our place is quite far away from the Jiang family. Big. Young Master and the others have just moved away, and there are still some things left in the yard here that have not been cleaned up. If there was no such thing as splitting the sect, we would just send someone to tell him. Now that the sect has been split, we will go and tell them , You know, they think we want to make a yard for you, but you don’t know, they think we are looking for an excuse to drive them all to move out quickly. It’s really a dilemma!”

"It depends on what you said!" Mrs. Song Si said with a smile, with no grudges on her face, "We are guests of the Wu family. The Wu family is famous for its arrogance among the families in the south of the Yangtze River. We must go and occupy it. Theirs is so cheap!"

Only then did Yu Tang understand that Mrs. Song’s fourth wife tactfully expressed to the second wife that she wanted to live in the Pei family during her stay in Beijing, but she was rejected by the second wife who was also tactful.

She felt that the second wife did too much right.

Listening to Pei Yan's tone, the Pei family and the Song family will fall out sooner or later. In this case, there is no need to get too close, otherwise it will be useless to help, and it will be useless not to help.

The second wife didn’t know these things. She rejected Mrs. Song 4 simply because she felt that Mrs. Song was eating from the bowl and looking at the pot.

Sending Mrs. Song Si and Miss Song Qi away, she said to Yu Tang: "When I talked about the Wu family, I was very happy. Then go to the Wu family. What's the matter with taking advantage of our family and not even saying a word?" !"

Yu Tang raised his thumb towards her and said: "Second sister-in-law is still thoughtful, I didn't expect them to have this idea. However, if it were me, I wouldn't like them living in our home. ”

The second wife nodded repeatedly.

After Yu Tang broke up with her at Chadaokou, he did not go back to the house where he lived, but went to Pei Yan's study.

He was discussing Yan Yin with Shu Qing.

The farm in Jiangxi should have a good grain harvest this year. They plan to work with the Yin family to transport grain to Jiubian in exchange for salt.

Originally, this plan was good, but it was a pity that Pei Xuan became the minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. No matter from every aspect, the Pei family should avoid the yamen where Pei Xuan was an official. The Pei family's salt business was not easy to operate. .

Shu Qing suggested that they take the grain directly back to Jiangsu and Zhejiang and sell it.

In Jiangsu and Zhejiang, food prices have always been relatively high.

But it’s definitely not as profitable as doing the salt business.

Pei Yan hesitated and saw Yu Tang. He stopped talking and decided to talk to Shu Qing about it tomorrow.

Shu Qing smiled and said hello to Yu Tang and left.

Yu Tang nodded reservedly to Shu Qing at first, but as soon as Shu Qing left the study, she immediately ran to Pei Yan's side, grabbed Pei Yan's sleeve, and said eagerly: "Xia Guang, I Let me tell you something, Miss Wu is going to marry the Peng family. The two families have kept this matter tightly covered. If Mrs. Song Si came to the house as a guest today, I would not have known about it. Do you know about this? ”

Pei Yan was also obviously surprised. He frowned and said, "I knew that the Wu family was looking for in-laws, but I didn't expect that the Peng family would agree. Mrs. Song Si has already arrived in the capital, so this matter must have been planned for a long time."

Yu Tang's heart suddenly rose and he said, "Have you not heard the news before?"

Pei Yan said: "I heard before that the Wu family intends to marry the Li family, but the Li family has no children of the right age."

So I chose the Peng family.

Yu Tang hesitated and said: "That's not right! It should be someone else's family who chooses the Wu family, not the Wu family who chooses someone else's family, right?"

Why did the Peng family agree to marry a girl from the Wu family?

Yu Tang guessed: "Is it because the Wu family's dowry is rich?"

Pei Yan looked at her nervous look and became playful. He couldn't help scratching Yu Tang's nose and said, "It's not entirely about the dowry. There is probably some cooperation."

Yu Tang had something on his mind and didn't care about making trouble with Pei Yan. He said anxiously: "The marriage between the two families must be related to some kind of cooperation. I'm afraid it will have some impact on our family. Mr. Jiang and you are at odds, and now the Wu family is at odds with each other. Married to the Peng family."

She still remembers when they used the "Picture of Fishing in Songxi" to intercept the Peng family's financial path.

Pei Yan didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Isn't it better this way! Like now, there is clearly a gap between us and the Peng family, but we still have to pretend to be close, which is quite annoying."

That's true.

Yu Tang reminded Pei Yan: "Be careful! I always have a bad feeling."

"Don't worry!" Pei Yan smiled and hugged Yu Tang, "I have a family now, and I don't dare to mess around. Otherwise, what will you do!"

Yutang's face was burning, and her heart was sweet. She felt that anything she said would ruin the atmosphere, and she was so excited that she didn't know where to use all her strength.

She hugged Pei Yan's waist hard...

Within two days, the news of the marriage between Peng and Wu families spread in the capital.

When Yu Tang went to the Yin family to attend the 100-day banquet of Xu Xuan's eldest son, many people asked her: "Is she the girl from the Wu family who married into the Jiang family?"

"Yes!" Yu Tang agreed with a smile.

Most of the people who knew it looked disapproving, and some even said disdainfully: "It is not easy to marry a daughter to someone like theirs."

It can be seen that the Wu family did not get any good reputation from it.

Even Xu Xuan, who was forced to rest at home by many aunts of the Yin family, talked about this matter with Yu Tang in private: "I heard that Miss Wu's dowry this time is one hundred thousand taels of silver. Peng Jiuye is a player and often has too much money to spend. Yes, only he will agree to this marriage."

Isn't it because the Peng family has Peng Yu, a rising star in the official career?

Xu Xuan sneered: "The Peng family would rather marry Miss Sun than Miss Wu. It's too obvious and easy to be criticized."

Yu Tang didn’t know what was going on, so naturally he couldn’t comment casually, so he changed the subject and talked about Mrs. Song Si: “Have you posted anything for her?”

Xu Xuan didn't remember, so she asked the grandma in charge to come over and ask, and then said to Yu Tang: "I personally wrote the invitations for you, Miss Zhang, and A Dan. Others need to ask. ." He asked curiously, "Why do you ask this?"

Since the Song family intends to marry Miss Song Qi to a family that is helpful to the Song family, they will definitely find a way to get in on such an occasion. ~IndoMTL.com~ Yu Tang just asked casually.

She felt that as the wife of the inner house, she was a bit derelict in failing to find out about the marriage between the Wu and Peng families.

She is more concerned about the Song family's movements.

"I just didn't see her, ask her." Yu Tang was embarrassed to tell Xu Xuan about his dereliction of duty and responded to her vaguely.

Fortunately, Xu Xuan didn't ask any more questions.

After a while, the grandma in charge came over and reported anxiously: "Grandma didn't explain it specifically before, so we didn't post it to them." Then she defended herself, "Although the Song family is a Jiangnan aristocratic family, it has the highest level. It’s just a fourth-grade one. The Song family’s house in the capital has also been sold. Song’s fourth wife now lives in the Wu family, and we haven’t sent any posts to the Wu family.”

The implication is that the Song family is not qualified to participate in the 100-day banquet of their eldest son.
