Delicate Flower - Chapter 394

[Extra II]

Gu Xi often walks around Pei’s mansion, and the little servant knows who she is, and naturally he knows what she is saying: “The old lady is coming to the capital to celebrate the New Year, and the second master asks you to clean up the courtyard in the west.

” After the seal, Gu Xi didn’t even know that the official order was down.

The people in Pei’s residence have changed their titles.

Gu Xi felt that her heart was beating even more, but she suppressed the strangeness in her heart and said happily: “This is really a happy event. I just don’t know when the old lady will come to the capital? Who will accompany her to

the old man’s house?”

An and the eldest wife went to Beijing together, planning to spend a new year in the capital, and then went to Mount Tai and went back to Lin’an.

As a result, Yu Tang was pregnant, and Pei Laoan was overjoyed. He left Yu Tang in the capital and went to Mount Tai by himself, saying that he wanted to ask for a peace charm for Yu Tang. After returning to the capital, he helped Yu Tang again. After confinement, when Yu Tang’s eldest son was one year old, Pei Dan left the pavilion and returned to Lin’an.

Thinking of this, Gu Xi’s hand holding the child tightened.

Hearing this, the little servant shook his head and said with a smile, “I don’t know when the old lady will come to the capital, nor who will accompany the old lady here. The big steward just asked us to clean up the house for two days and nights.

” mid-month.

Gu Xi asked a few more questions, but the little servant didn’t know anything about it. She was afraid that she would attract the attention of others by asking too much. , and Hexiang continued to go to the second wife.

Looking at Gu Xi’s face, He Xiang couldn’t help but whisper: “Eldest Young Mistress, the old lady is coming, do we have to prepare?”

In addition to going with the people from Pei’s residence, he also had to prepare some uncommon things. Honoring Mrs. Pei, it would be even better if you could invite Mrs. Pei to have a meal at home or something.

Gu Xi absentmindedly said “um”, wondering if Yu Tang would go to Beijing with Madam Pei.

She doesn’t know how the Pei family’s business has been in the past two years, but the Yu family’s business is getting bigger and bigger.

At the beginning of the year, Yu Yuan and a fellow villager named Yao San opened a grocery store in Beijing.

She turned around on purpose.

The shop is located in the most prosperous part of West Street. In addition to selling lacquerware, the five shops also sell imported goods. However, unlike the luxury of the Tao family, the imported goods in the Yu family’s grocery store are relatively cheap. Fresh, bought and prepared by fun people.

However, there are still a lot of people who buy it.

The Pei family didn’t know how much they helped and posted?

Gu Xi thought, the

two soon arrived at the second wife’s main room.

The little maid went to report to the second wife, and Mammy Jin greeted them in person with a smile on her face.

The second wife was sitting on the couch of Luohan and was talking to a few old ladies who were in charge. As soon as they came in, they stopped the topic. The second wife also got up and clapped her hands at Brother Yuan, saying, “Oh, our brother Yuan is here. !”

Brother Yuan came here often, but he didn’t even recognize the birth, so he rushed towards the second wife with a smile.

The second wife hugged Brother Yuan happily.

The servant girl serving by her side helped Yuan Geer to take off his hat, scarf and cloak.

A few old women in charge saluted Gu Xi.

Gu Xi politely said a few words, and stepped forward to say hello to the second wife.

The second wife put Brother Yuan, who was a little more flexible because he took off his clothes, on Luohan’s couch. While holding a kumquat for Brother Yuan to chew on, she smiled and said to Gu Xi, “It’s not the other way around, there’s no need to do this. You’re welcome.”

That being said, Gu Xi couldn’t really understand the rules.

The second wife said to the old woman in charge: “That’s all for today. You should do as I ordered first. If there is anything wrong, come back to me.”

Several old women in charge said “yes”. The fish backed away.

Gu Xi asked Hexiang to give the pear paste to the maid next to the second wife, and said to the second wife with a smile: “This time the pears were not as good as last time, so I added some dried tangerine peels. If the second aunt feels bad after eating it, let me The maids tell He Xiang, and I’ll do some more.” The

second wife thanked her with a smile, and said with some emotion: “It’s made you worry. Even more careful than our A-Dan.”

Where is Gu Xi? Dare to answer this, she hurriedly smiled: “A-Dan is young and the child is naughty, so she is also helpless.” After receiving this sentence, she immediately changed the subject and talked about the sight she saw when she entered the mansion. The scene: “It was said that my grandmother is going to Beijing. I don’t know that the official life has come down, so I have to celebrate it.” He added, “When will the old man enter Beijing? You must tell me when the time comes. Last time, her old man made a special trip to visit Ah Tong, and we all keep it in our hearts!” The

second wife laughed.

Although Pei Laoan didn’t like the eldest daughter-in-law, he felt sorry for the eldest grandson.

After coming to Beijing last time, I went to the place where they lived to have a look, and told Pei Tong for a long time.

The second wife thought for a while and said to Gu Xi, “It’s not your grandmother who is coming, it’s your third uncle who is coming. The emperor ascended the throne and announced that your third uncle would like to come to the capital to see it. Your third aunt will definitely follow, old lady. I can’t bear to have my two young grandchildren, so I came along with me.”

Since Gu Xi saw the servants cleaning up the yard, she wondered if Yu Tang would come.

Now that the news has been confirmed, it has calmed down.

She smiled and said: “Third aunt and third uncle are still so good, they have

to take them with them wherever they go. But the old lady will be burdened with them.”

The second wife smiled and said: “After all, they are young couples, and it is common sense that they like to stick together. I listened to your second uncle. They are expected to arrive at the end of the month. When the time comes, I will let someone tell you, and you will come to give The old lady kowtow.”

Gu Xi replied with a smile, and asked about Yu Tang’s two sons: “Brother Jiang and Brother Qian are going to die?”

Yu Tang’s two sons, the eldest son Jiang Ge’er was born on November 2, and the second son was born on December 6.

It didn’t matter if they weren’t in the capital, but now they’re coming to the capital. Those of them who are cousins and sisters-in-law have to send a birthday present anyway.

The second wife wondered: “You still remember!”

Gu Xi nodded with a smile, and took the handkerchief to wipe his son’s chin full of fruit juice.

How could she forget!

Yu Tang’s eldest son Pei Jiang was four years older than her elder brother Yuan, and when Pei Jiang was three years old, Yu Tang gave birth to her second son Pei Qian.

For this reason, the eldest lady gave her a lot of looks.

She was so angry with the eldest wife that she had to send gifts to Lin’an as if nothing had happened.

She will remember it all her life.

The second wife put a handkerchief around Brother Yuan and smiled: “So your second uncle said that the opportunity is rare, and you must give Brother Jiang and Brother Qian a good birthday.”

If there are no accidents, Pei Xuan is the least .

I have to stay in the capital for 20 years, and there are not many opportunities to see Pei Jiang and Pei Qian.

Gu Xi had to pretend to be elated and said with a full smile, “I’ll help you when the time comes.”

“That’s natural.” The second wife said, thinking of Pei Fei’s marriage, and said, “Isn’t it settled yet? What do you mean by mother-in-law?”

Pei Fei has been weak this year, and her marriage has not yet appeared.

Gu Xi sneered in her heart, but she didn’t show it on her face, and her tone was a little softer than usual: “It’s not that there are good people who are willing to marry our family, but my mother-in-law is wholeheartedly looking for someone who can help him. , I haven’t even passed the academy exam, marriage is a bit difficult.”

More than that, it’s a bit difficult!

According to the standard of the eldest wife, unless someone loses their heart, they will marry their daughter to Pei Fei.

After all, this matter has to be blamed on the Yang family.

Seeing that they got 150,000 taels of silver back then, the second and third masters of the Yang family had to rely on the Pei family to help them manage their business. After the eldest wife arrived in the capital, they proposed to let Pei Fei be their son-in-law.

The eldest wife was empty in her heart because of the division of the sect, so she agreed as soon as she heard it, and asked Gu Xi to take 5,000 taels of silver as a dowry gift to the Yang family.

Who knows that Pei Fei is not up to his expectations, and he has not passed the government test several times. The Yang family may not be very optimistic about him. In addition, after the seventh miss of the Song family married the nephew of the Jiangsu governor, the Song family secretly gained a lot of benefits. The girls in the family are good-looking, and marriage is easy. Several girls in the Yang family have been married to good people, but they have never decided which girl in the family will be married to Pei Tong.

This matter was delayed again and again, until Pei Tong fell off the list for the second time, and the Yang family never mentioned the matter of marriage, but Pei Fei was too old, and it was not easy to find someone else.

The second wife had persuaded the eldest wife to lower her standards and find someone from an aristocratic family, even a talented girl, but the eldest wife felt that the second wife was mocking her. Fei finds a daughter of a third-rank official, and some are willing to agree because of Pei Xuan’s face, but the one who wants to marry is a concubine, which makes the eldest wife sick again.

Now that Pei Fei’s marriage is high or low, it’s even more difficult to find someone she likes because she has seen each other more often and her reputation has spread.

The second wife also remembered this koan case. A few years later, she was still angry and a little dissatisfied, and said, “I still treat her as a concubine, so what can I say? She only believes in the Yang family. The person you are.” Having said that, thinking that Gu Xi is a junior, he didn’t feel embarrassed to continue complaining, but asked the Yang family, “Didn’t the emperor amnesty the world when he ascended the throne? I don’t remember it clearly, the third young lady of the Yang family. It’s still Fifth Young Lady, who is married to a young gentleman in Dali Temple as a daughter-in-law, so the second and third masters of their family should be coming back soon, right?”

“It’s the fifth young lady of their family.” Gu Xi came here this time, wondering if he could find a chance to talk to the second wife about this.

The second wife took the initiative to mention, UU reading www.sonicmtl.

com She secretly rejoiced, but there was a look of indignity on her face, and she said, “You don’t mention this, and I’m not going to mention it, you don’t know how filthy their family is, so I will give it to the second master and The third master came to our house to borrow money, and he only asked for fifty thousand taels.

“My mother-in-law actually wants to lend it to them!

“I had no choice but to ask my mother-in-law, who is the 50,000 taels of silver? Where does it come from?

“My mother-in-law mentioned the 150,000 taels of silver that the old man gave us.

“I just said that of the 150,000 taels of silver, 50,000 taels were given by the second uncle and belonged to the public family. Among them, 100,000 taels were due to us. The two brothers should share 50,000 taels each. I also counted the various expenses of the family in the past few years to my mother-in-law, and then called my uncle to ask him if he agreed. If he agrees, I will take 25,000 from his name, plus give The Yang family’s 5,000 taels of silver, when he gets married, I will give him his 20,000 taels of silver.

“As long as he doesn’t say that I am greedy for his money.
