Delicate Flower

Mrs. Song really came to talk to the Peng family. Although Mrs. Pei did not call her over for dinner and tea when she came to the capital, she already knew that she was not as good as before and was rejected by Mrs. Pei.

But this can't blame her!

Blame it, the lords of the Song family.

They always feel that their family and Pei's are relatives, and the Song family has had a hard time in recent years, so Pei's family should be considerate. The festival gifts usually given to the Peng family and the Wu family are all carts and carts. It is the Pei family’s turn to not add anything with Pei Xuan’s entry into the pavilion. On the contrary, they feel that Pei’s family does not lack something from their family. Up. So much so that their female relatives are embarrassed to get close to the second wife of the Pei family, let alone begging the Pei family to do something.

Now the Peng family is going to be unlucky and want the Song family to beg for help, these lords of the Song family think of her.

But this is empty mouth, what does she use to be close to Mrs. Pei, what right does she have to speak in front of Mrs. Pei?

So after she saw Mrs. Pei, she didn't say a word about the Peng family, just like an ordinary relative, she came over to ask Mrs. Pei well.

Old Mrs. Pei thought she had guessed wrong, and she felt a little guilty for Mrs. Song Si. Not only did she leave her for lunch, she also rewarded her with a dragon and phoenix bracelet inlaid with gold and jade when she left.

Mrs. Song returned home, and saw the eagerly awaited Mr. Song, she said without even thinking: "The old lady has nothing to do with her words, she has already ignored her home. If she has anything to do, she can go directly to Pei's second house. Master or the third master, let's go."

Just pushed the matter directly.

It's winter, and the New Year is coming in a blink of an eye. Master Song Si is the suzerain, and he is in charge of the household accounts, so he has to go back to Suzhou to take care of the general affairs. The matter in the capital was entrusted to Master Song.

Master Song was worried for a long time, and discussed with the staff of Master Song Si who stayed in the capital: "What about this matter?"

To say that they have also benefited a lot from the Peng family, but in the past two years, their family and Pei’s family have somehow gone away. A few days ago, he didn’t want to meet Pei Xuan in the past, but he never saw anyone, Peng. The family was in a hurry again, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and let Mrs. Song Si go to Pei's mansion.

Master Song Si, the staff member, was re-employed after the Song family arrived in the capital. He was a candidate who fell short of the ranking. He is still planning to continue the imperial examination this year. He is a quick-minded person. In the past few years in the Song family, he has seen clearly what the Song family is like, and he has made up his mind to resign at the end of the month. Perhaps because of this, he suddenly felt compassion for the blindness of the Song family, and couldn't help but confide in his heart: "The seventh master of the Peng family was demoted this time not because of wrongdoing, but because he provokes the emperor. No. I think the owner has also tried his best. If the Peng family is sensible, you shouldn't be blamed for it."

Jane is in the emperor's heart.

Peng Yu lost his imperial will this time.

Unless there is a change of emperor, it is impossible for Peng Yu to make a comeback.

The Song family can't protect themselves, so why bother to manage other people's affairs.

It happened that Master Song didn’t know it at all, and he was still showing off proudly there, saying: “You see, our family is not the kind of people who don’t know what is good or bad. The kindness of dripping water should be reported as Yongquan. Back then, if it wasn’t the Peng family. Seventh master, the cargo of our family is still in the Xuantong General Military Mansion! Even if it is a bit embarrassing, we have to find a way to help with this!"

Just to say, you have to work hard, our Song family will not treat you badly.

The staff member couldn't stay at the end of the month. He had been wandering outside for two days, saying that he had met his fellow villagers and wanted to prepare for the exam together. He quit his job with the Song family and moved to the outskirts of Beijing.

The Song family jumped up and down, but when the imperial decree came down, Peng Yu was not only dismissed from office, but also memorized "Never Hire".

The Peng family was shocked.

You know, when the first emperor was here, Pengyu was still very important. The saint ascended to the throne. Pengyu was cautious and never missed anything. The Peng family never dreamed of such a misfortune. Even if they wanted to arrange a few tricks, the Peng family There is only one of the next generation who has obtained fame, and has not yet been admitted to Shuji, so there is no way to arrange it.

If Peng Jiaqing doesn't pick up, there will be no improvement in at least ten years.

But these ten years have been enough to defeat a family.

The Peng family realized the difficulties of the Zhang family.

But fortunately, there is still an old Zhang in the Zhang family, who has barely supported these years. Now Zhang Shao’s son has reached the age of dancing spoon, and he has already been selected as a talented talent. There are many students to help him, and he will be able to defend him. Yunkai sees the sunrise.

The Peng family only begged that no one fell into trouble at this time, and took out a lot of money to work up and down until Peng Yu left Beijing, and they didn't figure out where the emperor's heart was lost.

Pei Xuan asked Pei Yan privately: "Did you make the hands and feet?"

Pei Yan denied it, and sneered: "Who do you think I am? Whatever you want?"

Pei Xuan curled his lips and said, "Don’t think I don’t know. Who gave Zhou Zijin the picture of "Flowers and Full Moon" that Zhou Zijin dedicated to the emperor a few days ago? In front of you, the court’s shipping. I think, you want to revisit the cancellation of the Shibosi Department, right?"

Pei Yan looked around, but didn't give a precise word.

Pei Xuan didn't force him, but said indifferently, "Zhou Zijin hasn't used less of your silver in the past few years, right? His expenses are getting bigger every year."

Speaking of this, Pei Yan was worried that his brother would misunderstand that he had taken the money from Pei’s father to Zhou Zijin, and had to say: "Brother Zijin and I are also confidants. He can’t say anything else, but his knowledge is one-by-one. Yes. I'm still going to let him be a teacher for Brother Qian in some time!"

Brother Qian doesn't have to inherit the family business, whether Pei Yan or Yu Tang are more indulgent to him.

Pei Xuan didn’t point it, and said, “You know what you’re doing. The Peng family didn’t want to tear their faces with our family before. Now you have taken away their jobs and died in life, the Peng family will not let it go easily. You. You should be more careful. You are a father too!"

Pei Yan nodded and said, "Brother don't worry, no matter how bad I am, I can't ignore my wife and children", but he didn't agree with him, thinking that when Pengyu returned to Fujian, he would give them a big gift.

I just want to forget it if he hurt his wife and children, there is no door!

Pei Yan went to see Zhou Zijin the next day.

The two murmured for a long time, and then went to climb the mountain together.

Pei Xuan watched his eyelids jump.

Gu Xi knew that in addition to Pei Tong and others who attended Pei Xuan's lecture that day, Pei Xuan's friends and colleagues' nephews were also very upset. After thinking about it for a few days, he mentioned the newly listed Zaozi to see Mrs. Pei.

Mrs. Pei was not there, so she said she went to Yu Tang's place.

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, and was about to go to see Yu Tang, but was stopped by the second wife's wife Tie Ji, and said with a smile: "Our second wife is going to see the fifth young master. At this time, the fifth young master is mostly with the fourth young master. You are practicing calligraphy! You know that homework is important, so you should go back first! Another day, wait until the second wife is free and come back. Or, send a post before you come, so that you don’t have to go."

This is to drive her away explicitly, and secretly accuse her of not knowing the rules and having no education.

Gu Xi's face flushed.

She usually walks frequently, and she never sees these women stopping her in her daily life, but when Yu Tang comes...

Gu Xi knew that it had nothing to do with Yu Tang, but she still couldn't restrain her thinking.

"Then I'll go back first!" She turned around and left the second wife's main courtyard despite her whispering arguing with Brother Jiang and Brother Qian.

Just when I went out, I met a woman who was serving in the second wife's room, holding a bamboo basket covered with a thick Bran flower coat, met her, smiled and gave her a blessing, and slapped her. Greeting: "You are leaving now!"

Gu Xi had no light on her face and responded vaguely. When she passed the woman, she heard a cat cry.

She was taken aback.

The woman hurriedly explained: "The second wife asked me to bring me to Li's house. The tabby cat raised in the house of the grandmother of the Li family gave birth to a few kittens. Said it was raised for the fifth young master to play with. This is not. When I just came back, I had to invite a savvy woman back to take care of her.

Brother Yuan understood the words, and immediately called "Maomao" upon hearing this.

Even if the cat in the house of the Li family's grandmother gave birth to the cat.

Gu Xi grabbed his son's hand, smiled and nodded towards the woman, and walked out quickly.

A few women's voices came from behind: "Second wife, is this going to be raised in her own house?"

"It must be! The third master is not allowed to keep cats. You didn't see that the fifth master's cat was kept in the old lady's house."

"The second wife is rare for the fifth young master, so she has to raise a cat to keep people away."

"Last time Brother Sen came back, I liked it too. But my wife was afraid that Brother Sen would be scratched and was not allowed to raise her. The second wife was also for Brother Sen."

"No. With this cat, even if the wife of in-law is unwilling, there is nothing to do. Brother Sen is thinking about coming over, and it is not easy for the wife to stop him.

"It's fine if the third young master is married. The second wife has her own grandson, so she won't go to tease other people's children."

The voice drifted away, Yuan brother still clamored to find two brothers to play, but Gu Xi's hand holding the child became tighter and tighter.

After the Laba Festival, Xu Xuan suddenly came to see Yu Tang.

She is the mistress of the house, the child is still young, and the Yin family has many aunts, so she actually has time to come over.

Yu Tang was very surprised. He made a special trip to take the rock tea that Pei Yan had privately kept, and invited her to talk in the Nuan Pavilion.

She actually came to say kiss to Wei Xiaochuan.

Yu Tang couldn't help but leaned over and said with concern, "Whose are you going to be a matchmaker?"

Wei Xiaochuan has been weak this year. Of course, she hopes that Xiaochuan's marriage will be settled soon, but according to her guess, Xiaochuan's marriage will have to wait for him to be released. She is also wondering what to do if Xiaochuan fails the exam.

Pei Yan said that she was unreasonably worried, saying that it was impossible for the students he taught to fail the exam.

Yu Tang also laughed at Pei Yan, saying that he is too arrogant, and everything is in case, what if he fails the exam?

She still remembered that Pei Yan sneered and said: "If you can't pass the exam, don't think about getting married. Study hard for three years, then come to the exam, let's talk about it if you pass the exam."

Unexpectedly, Xu Xuan would have a suitable candidate so soon.
