Delicate Flower - Chapter 395
[Extra three]
The second wife gave up her share to subsidize Pei Tong, not to squander it for the Yang family.
As soon as she heard this, she immediately trembled with anger, sat up straight and said nervously, “Then what does A Fei say?”
Gu Xi sighed, and said, “It’s not stupid. Uncle is naturally unwilling. My mother-in-law is for this. I even had a big fight with him.”
She gave Pei Fei an idea, started the spring, and went to the academy outside to study. If anyone asked, she said that he asked his second uncle Pei Xuan to help keep the money, and someone wanted to borrow the money. Just go to Pei Xuan.
Although Pei Fei has been in the capital for several years, there are differences between men and women. In addition, the eldest wife did not like Gu Xi very much, and did not arrange her in front of her two sons. The relationship between Pei Fei and Gu Xi was very distant, and this time Gu Xi was uncharacteristically He gave him an idea, and unexpectedly, he also suddenly realized some of the reasons why the eldest wife didn’t like Gu Xi before.
It should be the same thing as losing his temper at him now – he didn’t listen to her and helped the Yang family wholeheartedly.
But the Yang family had drifted farther and farther from their family because of his eldest brother’s failure. Why did they still stick to the cold ass of the Yang family?
In any case, Pei Fei is the direct descendant of the Pei family. She has never been angry. Although her career is not going well, no one will ridicule him in front of him. He also has a juvenile arrogance. Too much to look at the Yang family’s style.
He not only listened to Gu Xi’s words, but also backed up with his mother and said to the eldest wife: “I don’t care how you discussed it. No one can move my share. If my mother thinks it’s an uncle’s family business, it’s even worse. It’s important, I remember that my mother still has a lot of dowry in her hands, it’s better to sell it to help my uncle’s house, it can be regarded as a return to the original owner.” The
eldest wife was furious and scolded Pei Fei for being “selfish”.
Pei Fei sneered and walked away.
Gu Xi felt that Pei Fei was quite interesting, so he added another fire and said, “In the past, there was a shelter from the Pei Mansion, and no one thought that. Now we are independent, and we have to spend money wherever we go, and we have to pay high prices. Don’t worry. Not to mention, this year, the Pei family ordered a part of the charcoal, and the Tao family, the Fei family, and the Qin family sent part of it. As for our family, part of it was bought at the market price, and the other part was snapped up, which is more expensive than the market price. Double, this is still the second aunt who helped me to say hello. I didn’t make any more money in the shop. With this going back and forth, our family’s expenses couldn’t keep up with 4,000 taels of silver a year. Now there are only 10,000 yuan left in the public. There’s an extra tael of silver, or you can post a little more. We collected 20,000 taels to send it to my uncle’s house, which is a little favor from us.
“Just like this, what about the expenses of Gongzhong?
I have to ask you to come up with an idea.
“Or my uncle and I share it equally? Or do we each come up with a fixed amount? Let’s share it evenly, so that what was in the
past will be what will happen in the future? If we take out a fixed amount, then we can spend as much as we can in a year. Ten thousand If it is not enough, reduce the number of servants in the family by one, and if it is not enough, chew it and save it. It should be able to last for several years.”
He also added: “As I said, it is better for each of us to take a fixed amount. Otherwise, you can spend as much as you use, and if you can’t get in, you can lose all the money.”
This is to cut her expenses!
The eldest wife will never agree.
But the family’s money is in Gu Xi’s hand. If she wants to move, she has to pass Gu Xi, which will alarm Pei Xuan and Gu Chang. The eldest wife feels that if things really get to that point, it will only embarrass the Yang family and let the Yang family lose face. People thought that her family was about to fall.
She hated it, but she didn’t say anything to Gu Xi.
As long as she doesn’t make it clear to herself, Gu Xi will pretend to be confused and pretend she doesn’t know.
When the second wife heard that Pei Fei had rejected the eldest wife, she was relieved and asked with concern, “Do you really spend 4,000 taels of silver a year?”
She didn’t have that much when she was in charge of the family.
Gu Xi pursed his lips and smiled, and whispered to the second wife: “How is it possible! If I didn’t say that, my mother-in-law wouldn’t know what would happen again!”
The second wife sighed, patted her hand and said, “It’s really embarrassing for you. When your brother returns to the capital, it will definitely be much better.”
Sun Gao’s matter was still a big deal, and Gu Chang wanted to avoid the capital. Some gossip about him, he went to Baoding four years ago to be the prefect.
Pei Xuan felt a little pity, but he still had Pei Chan and Pei Bo to take care of, so he could only sigh with the second wife in private.
Gu Xi was very confident.
She knew that the Yin family would help her brother in planning.
After chatting with the second wife about her family’s family affairs, the old woman in charge came in to show it and said, “Do you want to clean up the small yard in the west alone?”
Gu Xi knew that it was where she used to live in Pei’s mansion.
She pricked her ears.
The second wife thought for a while and said, “Let’s clean it up? I don’t know who else will come here except the young master of the Wei family? If there are too many people, it is definitely not good for them all to live in that small yard. If it is only the Wei family’s Young master, it is best to clean up a secluded yard.” The old
lady smiled and agreed to leave.
Gu Xi couldn’t help but say: “The young master of the Wei family? Whose family’s in-laws are you?”
She deliberately told Pei Fei about the marriage, lest the 45,000 taels of silver that Pei Fei left in her hands would fall into the hands of the eldest wife .
She just wanted to let the Yang family and the eldest wife see that they couldn’t eat it.
Those familiar families are unlikely to be married to Pei Fei. Instead, they are like the Yang family married to the second Miss Pei family, or the Hu family married to the fourth Miss Pei.
The second wife smiled and said, “It’s a relative of your third aunt’s mother’s family. Their youngest son used to study in the county school, and Mr. Fang taught him. Later, when Mr. Fang left, the child studied with Mr. Yu for a while. Book, Master Yu recommended him to your third uncle again. That child is going to end this year, so he came with your third uncle.”
Gu Xi was taken aback.
She knew that Yu Tang’s mother’s brother’s business was doing well, but she didn’t expect to have a reader.
If you have money, you are not afraid, but you are afraid that someone in your family will be able to work.
Gu Xi’s smile couldn’t help but reluctantly turned up, and said, “Uncle Third still has time to teach people to read! I really didn’t expect that. Is that young master Wei very smart? It sounds so young, have you seen it before?”
“I didn’t .
I’ve seen it.” The second wife smiled, “It should be a good character, otherwise, with your third uncle as a person, he wouldn’t ask for trouble to accept a student even if he was idle. The child is young and has not yet booked Dear. Your third aunt came to the capital this time, and wanted to tell him a suitable marriage. In addition to asking me, I also asked Mrs. Yin. I thought, with Mrs. Yin as a person, I am afraid that all the girls of the right age in the capital would have been lost. I thought about it. When your third aunt arrives, there should be good news for her.”
Yin Mingyuan has been hanging out in the Hanlin Academy for the past few years, as if he has no intention of official career, and his body is still sick and crooked like before. Many books have been published.
Some people even said that he might become the most famous Hongru in this dynasty, and those in the Hanlin Academy had special respect for him because of this.
Mrs. Xu gave birth one by one, and she is now the mother of four children.
The first three are sons, and the youngest is a daughter, who only fell into the grass last month, but has never done the full moon ceremony.
Gu Xi had also inquired about why before, but the Yin family only said that the weather was too cold, and they did not do the full moon, but only did the 100-day ceremony.
Does the Xu family want to wait for Yu Tang to come to the capital?
This thought flashed through Gu Xi’s mind, and she was immediately denied it again.
The Yin family wouldn’t really be in charge of the Xu family, so how could they change their daughter’s celebration in order to wait for Yu Tang to come to Beijing?
However, Mrs. Xu really knew a lot of people. If she was the matchmaker, no matter who it was for her face, she would have a good grasp of it.
She thought of Pei Fei.
Gu Xi shook her head in her heart.
If it was in the past, she could have asked the second wife to go to Xu’s place to ask, but now… people like Yin and Li don’t send her invitations very often for happy events. She just asked Xu’s place. Xu Shi will only politely refuse.
But she was still curious if Xu could be of any help.
She smiled and said to the second wife, “I don’t know what Mr. Wei is looking for? If the marriage of Mr. Wei can be settled, you can tell me, and I will listen to an interesting story.” The
second wife smiled and said, “The child’s family is Country squire, white body, I must be looking for someone who can help.”
As for whether it is financial help or career help, you have to see Yu Tang to know.
While the two were talking, Pei Dan suddenly came over.
The second wife was so frightened that the tea cup almost fell to the ground, and she asked Laibin’s maid: “How did she say hello and came back without calling? What about Uncle? Did you send her back? Did she bring Brother Sen? What does she look like? ?”
Brother Sen is Pei Dan’s eldest son.
The maid was a little confused by the second wife’s question, and said, “Auntie is fine and happy. She didn’t bring the young master here. She said she had something to ask you, and she left after asking.”
“This child!” The second wife was still very concerned.
Worrying, he got up to meet him, and Pei Dan walked in after lifting the curtain.
“Mum!” she called out happily.
Compared with when she was a girl, she has grown a little taller and fatter, but her complexion has gotten better, and her personality has become more cheerful and lively than before.

Seeing that Gu Xi was also there, she called out to Gu Xi with a smile, “Sister-in-law”, then took the second wife’s arm, and said in a fiery tone: “Don’t worry about whether I eat or not, I accompanied my mother-in-law to see Mrs. Zhang. She took Brother Sen to the house. My carriage walked behind and turned a corner. I came to ask you, is the third aunt coming over? With two younger cousins? I met Zhang’s aunt at Zhang’s house. She went to see Mrs. Yin a few days ago. Mrs. Yin said that the third aunt was coming to the capital in a few days, and she was helping the third aunt’s maiden brother. Seeing each other!”
What a mess!
The eldest lady of the Zhang family is married to the son of Yang Chunhe, a scholar of the Imperial Academy of Sciences. Yang Chunhe values Yin Mingyuan very much. It is said that this marriage was a match made by the Xu family.
The second wife smiled and frowned, and said, “I think you’re just playing crazy with Mrs. Yin, so don’t mess around with her in the future.” Then, “Your third aunt is indeed going to the capital in the next two days, and your grandmother is also going to be in the capital. Come together, I will go to Tongzhou with your father and A Hong to pick up your grandmother and your third uncle. I will tell you two days in advance. You also tell my uncle.”
