Delicate Flower: Extra Seven


Pei Xuanzheng and Pei Tong analyzed which people might preside over the imperial examination next spring and what their preferences were.

Pei Tong listened very carefully.

Pei Xuan said it very seriously.

It was a rare opportunity for him to meet Pei Tong.

Recently, the emperor wanted to build a Taoist temple in the palace, but the inner treasury did not have enough money. The eunuchs in charge of the ceremony wanted the Ministry of Household Affairs to provide the money, but of course the cabinet did not agree. The Supervisor of Ceremonies wears small shoes for the cabinet every day.

According to Pei Xuan, the emperor has just ascended the throne and building a Taoist temple is not something worth mentioning. The past few years have been going well and the national treasury is full. You can borrow some money from the inner treasury first, and then slowly That’s it. The emperor still has income from gold and iron mines every year. As long as he is careful, he can pay off the money in up to three years. There is no need for the cabinet to slap the emperor in the face like this.

Although his words were spoken tactfully, they still reached the emperor's ears somehow. The emperor specially called him to ask how he could repay the money. As a minister, he naturally wanted to relieve the emperor's worries. After talking about several methods, although the emperor didn't make a decision at the time, his look showed that he approved of it.

I just didn't expect that what he did made some people unhappy. They targeted him several times and called him flattery. He was very angry. He was busy solving this matter these days.

Seeing Gu Xi coming over, he remembered that his main purpose today was to pick up his mother. The scientific examination was something that could be said to be urgent or not urgent. What's more, Wei Xiaochuan of the Yu family is going to end this time. With his brother's temperament, he will definitely drag him to tell Wei Xiaochuan about this matter. Why not be more generous and do good things to the end? After asking Pei Yan, he smoked Tell them all about it in your spare time, which can be regarded as giving Pei Yan face.

He stopped the topic and said to Pei Tong: "It's a long story, and it won't be explained clearly in a short while. In this way, when I'm free someday, you can come over and I'll talk to you."

This is an experience that no one else can buy with money.

Pei Tong was naturally very grateful and agreed repeatedly.

Gu Xi was very happy.

With Pei Xuan helping to protect him, Pei Tong should be more confident about spring this time.

She respectfully saluted Pei Xuan and Mrs. Pei.

The two smiled and nodded at her.

She suddenly heard a burst of laughter not far away.

Gu Xi couldn't help but follow the sound and saw Yu Tang, wearing a silver-red silver fox fur cloak and holding a green tung oil paper umbrella, getting off the boat with the help of the maid.

"A Tang, you haven't changed at all!" The one who spoke was Xu Xuan. She was smiling. She stepped forward to give Yu Tang a hug, but Pei Dan next to her interrupted her. He hugged Yu Tang and shouted "Third Aunt" happily.

Yu Tang smiled and hugged Pei Dan back hard.

Pei Dan's fair face rested on the shoulders of Pei Dan, who was covered with a green and golden cloak. That face, which was originally very beautiful, seemed to be glowing with light, like summer flowers near the water, warm and gorgeous.

Gu Xi was in a daze for a moment.

Yu Tang, when did you become so beautiful?

Like a flower.

If there was still a bit of youthfulness in the past, now, only the blooming beauty remains.

Dazzlingly beautiful, shockingly beautiful.

This has not changed.

He clearly looks like a different person.

In the past there were only gods, but now there are bones.

Beauty is always in the bones but not in the skin.

Gu Xi couldn't help but look critically at Yu Tang, who was chatting with Miss Zhang and Yang.

She wore a plain Hangzhou silk orange gown and a horse-faced skirt with apricot and lilac stripes. The pleats were embroidered with patterns, which were looming when she walked around. She was gorgeous and extravagant.

Gu Xi suddenly smiled bitterly.

So what if she re-exploded the jewelry and made new clothes?

Yu Tang can suppress such strong and complex colors when she wears them on her body. When people see her, the first thing they see is her fair face.

Why?

Gu Xi tried hard to recall.

Yu Tang has turned around, took the hands of his two sons from the wet nurse, and said to Xu Xuan and others: "This is our Brother Jiang and Brother Qian."

Both children have fair skin, big eyes, high noses, and long eyelashes. They are as beautiful as the boys under Guanyin's seat. However, the older one looks calm and self-possessed, more like Pei Yan; the younger one looks gentle and shy, more like Yu Tang.

"Ouch!" Xu Xuan bent down, wanting to hug this one, but felt that she would neglect the other one, wanted to hug that one, but felt reluctant to let go of this one, so she hugged the two together, but she didn't have the strength, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

Pei Dan didn't even think about it. While Xu Xuan was hesitating, he hugged the smaller one and asked him warmly: "Are you Brother Qian?"

Brother Qi immediately blushed and whispered "Yes" while looking at Yu Tang eagerly, as if to say "Hurry up and take me over", which made Pei, who has a naughty child at home, My heart melted, and I didn't know whether to hand the child to Yu Tang or continue to hold it.

Brother Jiang frowned almost invisible and said loudly and loudly: "You are my fifth cousin, right? My brother is still young and is just learning to walk. You should let him walk on his own. Let’s go!”

When Brother Qian heard this, she immediately became confident. She blinked her big eyes and nodded at Pei Dan, and said in a sweet voice: "Fifth cousin, I walk by myself!"

Xu Xuan and others couldn't help laughing.

Pei Dan was afraid of making the child cry when they met for the first time, so after thinking about it, he quickly put Brother Qian on the ground.

Brother Qi seemed to be amnesty and hurriedly hid next to Brother Jiang.

Brother Jiang touched his brother's head comfortingly.

Brother Qian pulled her brother tighter.

Xu Xuan could tell that Yu Tang, the eldest son, probably looked like Pei Yan. She couldn't help teasing Brother Jiang: "We are all your aunts or aunts, can't we also hug your brother? He is so timid, will he not be able to do big things in the future?"

A trace of displeasure flashed in Brother Jiang's eyes, but his face was serious and he said very politely: "My parents have told us since we were young not to talk to strangers. When we met several aunts and uncles for the first time, we were a little uncomfortable. If my brother was timid, I'm afraid he would have started crying. He's just not used to it."

"Yo yo yo, look at this little appearance!" Xu Xuan and Yin Mingyuan have lived together for a long time, and they have also grown to like smart people. Yu Tang's eldest son is very smart at first sight. She admires it very much and said to Yu Tang , "The eldest in your family is only six years old this year, right? He already knows how to protect his younger brother. The one in our family only knows how to fight. He won't stop until he makes a huge mess."

Yu Tang felt even more sorry for the eldest son who, despite being precocious, would have to shoulder the responsibility of being the eldest son in the future. After hearing this, she hugged her eldest son and said with a smile: "Your children are very close to each other. When I gave birth to brother Yun, our brother Jiang was already sensible and knew how to love his younger brother."

Xu Xuan no longer wanted to talk about her three sons, and sighed: "If I hadn't given birth to a daughter this time, I would rather never give birth to a daughter again."

Are you still going to give birth?

Yu Tang glanced at Xu Xuan in surprise. Thinking of the situation of the Yin family, she swallowed her words. Then she hugged her two sons and exchanged a few words with Miss Zhang and Yang. The Pei brothers He walked over with Mrs. Pei and said, "Get in the car! We'll go back to Tongzhou Courtyard first and have lunch before we talk."

Several people agreed.

Mrs. Pei waved to her two grandsons: "Come, come to grandma."

This is a ride in a car with my two grandsons.

The second wife originally arranged for Brother Pei Xuan and the old lady to sit where they could also say some personal words.

Seeing this, he quickly adjusted the order of taking the bus.

Mrs. Pei and Brother Jiang and Brother Qian took a car, the Pei brothers took a car, the second wife took a car... Gu Xi and his wife took a car...

Mounting thirty or two horse-drawn carriages whipped all the way to Yutang's small courtyard in Tongzhou.

The earth dragons all burned up yesterday.

The indoors are warm as spring, the snow is falling outdoors, and the winter plum blossoms are blooming red.

Everyone who came back from outside wearing a jacket and taking off his cloak breathed a sigh of relief and smiled briskly.

The men were talking in the main hall, while the women went to the Nuan Pavilion.

Mrs. Pei sat on the Arhat couch with Brother Xi in her arms. While talking to Xu Xuan, she looked down from time to time at the wet nurse who was squatting next to her and feeding Brother Qian water. She was afraid that the wet nurse would give him water. It was like Brother Qian: "...it's good that all the elders in the family are healthy. After I passed sixty-five, I felt it became more obvious. Every year is getting worse. If I didn't have these two children to take care of, I wouldn't be able to I'm not so energetic." After saying that, he helped Brother Qian straighten her scarf.

The second wife laughed, feeling that the old lady was indeed more energetic because she had something to do.

Her eyes softened when she looked at Brother Jiang, and she quietly asked Brother Jiang: "Are you tired? If you are, go and take a rest first!"

Brother Jiang stood upright next to Yu Tang, letting Yu Tang hold his hand, and politely replied to the second wife: "Second aunt, I'm not tired. My brother and I had just woken up when we got off the boat. ."

Besides, there will be lunch soon. After lunch, the brothers will be arranged to take a lunch break, so there is no need to ruin everyone's gathering.

The second wife couldn't help but said to Yu Tang: "This child is so good!"

Gu Tang nodded with a smile. He knew that his eldest son had high demands on him and was filial and obedient. She didn't want to embarrass him, so she whispered to him: "Do you want to rely on Mommy?"

"No need!" He said seriously, "I'm really not tired."

Yu Tang said nothing more.

Brother Yuan in Gu Xi's arms looked at Brother Jiang and Brother Qian longingly.

Gu Xi watched him closely. Except when he occasionally met Pei Dan's brother Sen who was about the same age as him when he went to the second wife's place, he rarely saw children about the same age as him.

He pulled Gu Xi's sleeve and said to his mother vaguely: "Mom, brother, play!"

Gu Xi was staring at the embroidery on Yu Tang's skirt. ~IndoMTL.com~ One by one, the embroidery is of magpies making plum blossoms.

The color, the needle and thread, looked like Shu embroidery given to her by the proprietress of the tailor shop.

Isn't it such a coincidence?

Can Yu Tang still use this to make a skirt?

Didn’t she leave the capital? Why does she wear whatever is popular in Beijing?

Or is it imitation embroidery?

Jiangnan merchants are the quickest in their pursuit of profit. Wherever there is something good, they will immediately learn it.

Gu Xi didn't hear clearly what her son said. When he pulled her sleeves, she grabbed her son's hand impatiently. She couldn't help but said: "Third aunt's dress is so beautiful! I see. It’s been a long time, and the more I look at it, the better it looks!”
