Ms. Gu?!

Gu Xi!

If the Gu family wants to form an alliance with the Pei family, then they can do so. When did the Yang family get dragged into it? !

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

The second young lady's face flushed red, and she gritted her teeth and said, "What does the Yang family mean? Why are they meddling in our Pei family's affairs?"

The Yang family had just discussed the marriage with the Pei family, but they started interfering in the Pei family's affairs, and that was the second young lady's future in-laws. No wonder the second young lady was so angry and embarrassed.

Yu Tang wanted to say something to persuade her, but he felt confused and didn't know what to say.

The other ladies also came to their senses at this time.

The Third Miss immediately apologized and said to Yu Tang in a low voice, "Sister Yu, we won't see you off. This happened so suddenly, and the elders at home will definitely not be able to take care of anything else for the time being. I will personally invite Sister Yu to our home as a guest after everything at home is sorted out."

Yu Tang wanted to say "It's okay", but his throat seemed to be blocked by something. He was usually a smart guy, but for a moment he couldn't make a sound.

Supported by Shuang Tao, she walked out of Pei's residence, got on the sedan chair, and returned to her home in Qingzhu Lane without knowing when.

Chen was panicked and asked, "What happened to you? It's so cold, why are you sweating all over? Your face is as white as paper?" After saying this, she also became panicked and asked Shuang Tao loudly, "Didn't you say you were going to see Master Pei? Why did you come back like this? Did someone bully Atang? Or did Master Pei say something?"

She clenched her hands tightly, as if she was going to fight someone to the death.

Yu Tang came back to his senses with a start, and hurriedly took his mother's arm, whispering: "It's okay, I'm fine. It's just that I was at Pei's house..."

When she heard that the Yang family wanted to act as a matchmaker for Gu Xi, she panicked and was at a loss for a moment.

Yu Tang swallowed hard.

She doesn't know what's wrong with her?

Gu Xi likes Pei Yan. Not to mention himself, even the elders of the Pei family seem to have noticed something.

Didn't she already know this?

Why is she still so upset now that the Gu family has made the matter clear?

Yes, it is uncomfortable.

She hated Gu Xi. Whenever she thought about Gu Xi standing by Pei Yan's side one day, and Pei Yan showing Gu Xi a gentle smile that no one else had ever seen, Yu Tang felt like her heart was bleeding.

It must be because she regarded Pei Yan as her benefactor and did not want a woman like Gu Xi to desecrate Pei Yan.

Yes, that's definitely the case.

That's why she feels so uncomfortable.

Yu Tang took a long breath, and only then did he feel the warmth of his hands and feet, and the warm spring breeze in the air.

She seemed to have suddenly awakened from a nightmare.

All my limbs were full of strength again, and my brain was working rapidly.

"Mom," Yu Tang said as casually as possible, "Don't worry, it's the Gu family. Do you remember? It's Miss Gu who was visiting the Pei family with me. Someone came to act as a matchmaker for her today. They wanted to set her up with the third elder of the Pei family. I was a little shocked."

Chen looked at her with a hint of suspicion: "Really? The old lady will be getting rid of her mourning period soon, and the third master's wedding should be ready. Why are you so shocked? Don't fool me!"

"No, no." Pei Tang assured again, "I was really surprised. I used to think Miss Gu was the same age as me, but suddenly I found out that Miss Gu might become the first wife of the Third Elder... Can you imagine it?"

Her words convinced Chen, who laughed and said, "You scared me, kid. That's because our family is small and you haven't experienced any inner court affairs, so you find it rare. For example, your eldest aunt is a few months older than your youngest aunt, but they grew up together and got married in the same year."

Yu Tang pouted.

Anyway, she felt that Gu Xi was not worthy of Pei Yan.

She sent Ah Tiao to keep an eye on the news of the Pei family.

Pei Yan's marriage is a big event in the Pei family, as it is related to who will become the Pei family's head wife. The Pei family is also the largest family in Lin'an City. Even if the Pei family wants to keep a low profile, they cannot do so.

The next day, news came back from Ah Tiao that the Gu family was going to marry the Pei family.

Yu Tang was stunned.

After being asked by her mother yesterday, she calmed down a little. When she returned to the house, she thought that if the Pei family agreed to marry the Gu family, Mrs. Pei would be very satisfied with Gu Xi. But when they were in the other courtyard, it was obvious that Mrs. Pei did not take special care of Gu Xi. Mrs. Shen, who accompanied Gu Xi, even offended Mrs. Pei. The so-called marriage was probably just the Gu family's enthusiasm.

After hearing what Ah Tiao said, she began to doubt her previous guess again.

Maybe it was because Mrs. Pei was very satisfied with Gu Xi that she got angry and drove Mrs. Shen away when she saw that Mrs. Shen's words and actions were not to her liking. Otherwise, with Mrs. Pei's open-mindedness, she should not have reacted so violently.

Later, Gu Xi was sent away early because he was going to arrange marriage with the Gu family. So it would be inappropriate for Gu Xi to live in the Pei family anymore?

Otherwise, how could the Yang family, which had just been planning to marry a relative of the Pei family and whose marriage had not yet been officially announced to the public, be included in the marriage of both the Pei and Gu families?

The Yang family is not a poor family and they don’t know the rules!

The more Yu Tang thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

Her heart felt like it was being fried on an iron plate, tossing and turning, and she didn't know what to feel.

She paced up and down the room.

Shuang Tao, who was helping her pack her things, was dazzled by what she saw and couldn't help but ask, "Miss, what are you thinking? The master and the mistress love you so much. If you go and tell them, they will definitely agree to your request. Why are you so anxious? Just do whatever you want to do!"

Yu Tang was stunned.

She is not as good as Twin Peach?

What's the point of her being so anxious at home? Once the marriage between the Pei and Gu families is settled, even if Gu Xi is not presentable, the Pei family will definitely tolerate it for the sake of the overall situation. At most, Gu Xi will be sent to a temple for meditation. But if this happens, Pei Yan's life will be over - his wife is not virtuous and his son is not filial. He can't even take care of the family affairs, so what's the point of talking about the family affairs?

No, she couldn't just watch Gu Xi marry Pei Yan like that.

She will live in Lin'an City for the rest of her life!

Wouldn't it be like the previous life, where I would stare at Gu Xi for the rest of my life?

Suddenly, Yu Tang felt as if a surge of hot blood was gushing out of her heart, making her whole body boil.

In her previous life, she escaped from the Li family with her courage, which led to the subsequent events. Now that she has lived two lives, why is she still so timid? She is even worse than the lonely little girl in her previous life? !

She does what she says.

Yu Tang immediately wrote a letter and asked Ah Tiao to deliver it to the Pei residence, and told him: "Be sure to give it to Third Master Pei. If you can't see Third Master Pei, you can give it to Chief Steward Pei or Ah Ming. Tell them that I have something important to see Third Master about, and it is of great importance. Please make time to see me."

Ah Tiao took the letter and left. When he came back, he told her, "Master Pei has guests all day today. Can you go to the Pei Mansion tomorrow morning? If you can't wait until tomorrow morning, write a note for me to take. And tell the chief steward Pei that if I want to see him, he should take me directly to see him."

It should be in time tomorrow, right?

Yu Tang was calculating in his mind, but he said unconsciously: "The Third Elder has been meeting guests all day today? Do you know who they are?"

I wonder if it has anything to do with Pei Yan and Gu Xi’s marriage?

Ah Tiao shook his head and said, "I only heard that Mr. Shen came early in the morning, and then the Gu family in Hangzhou also came. The third master has not come out of his study in Gengyuan since then. I went there, and it was Ah Ming who helped to spread the word."

Mr. Shen is also at the Pei family!

Someone from the Gu family is here too!

Yu Tang's heart tightened, and then he secretly rejoiced. If he had not made up his mind earlier, he would probably see Pei Yan again when he was engaged.

She returned to the house and could not help hugging Shuangtao, saying, "I am so sorry for what I have done to you today. When you get married, I will definitely give you a set of silver jewelry."

Shuang Tao was confused by her, but being rewarded with a set of silver jewelry by her employer when she got married was a matter of great honor. She blushed and couldn't help asking Yu Tang, "Miss, you are so confusing... why are you rewarding me?"

Yu Tang was stunned, then burst into laughter and said, "If you don't know, then don't know. Just remember to remind me when you get married that I still owe you a set of silver face masks."

Shuang Tao was unsure whether Yu Tang was joking or really wanted to reward her, and blushed as she put the new summer dress that Chen had made for Yu Tang into the closet.

The next morning, Pei Yan met Yu Tang in the pavilion in Gengyuan where he had met Yu Tang before.

The farmland in spring is another beautiful sight. In addition to the lush green trees and the silver willows brushing against the water, there are also colorful wild flowers emerging from the stream, butterflies dancing and bees busy, the air is full of spring and becomes gentle.

Yu Tang wondered if Pei Yan was too busy during this period, which was why these wild flowers were growing so vigorously and wildly, or if the maids and servants were too busy to pick all the flowers, or if even if the maids and servants picked the flowers every day, they would not be able to pick all the flowers?

Pei Yan looked Yu Tang up and down for a long time.

Compared to when she was in Ku'an Temple, Yu Tang seemed to be a little haggard. Of course, this haggardness did not refer to her appearance. She still had a face as beautiful as a peach blossom and eyes as clear as a spring, just like the flower buds growing on the branches, which attracted people's attention. Rather, it referred to her mental haggardness, which made her look a little unhappy, as if she had suffered some injustice.

But he hadn't heard anything big happening in her family during this time!

Pei Yan thought to himself, but his voice was calm after he spoke, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or not: "What happened? You came to see me so anxiously, could it be that you got into trouble again?"

Thinking back to the past, she had used the name of their Pei family to deceive people outside.

Yu Tang was extremely angry.

She shouldn't have come to warn this man.

Why is there not a single word you say that people can listen to?

She immediately threw the speech she had prepared last night out of her mind and said, "I heard that Third Master is going to marry Miss Gu. Thinking about how Third Master cared for our Yu family in the past, I have two things to say. If it's not pleasant to hear, please don't blame me for my sincerity."

Here comes another person who has something to say about the marriage between the Pei and Gu families.

Pei Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "Then don't say it!"
