Chapter 229 Residence



Yu Tang frowned angrily.

Shuang Tao, who was listening nearby, had bright eyes and said with emotion: "The Third Elder is such a good person. Miss Gu is going to be his nephew's wife, but he was afraid that you would suffer a loss, so he sent someone to tell you. Miss is so lucky to meet the Third Elder!"

Yu Tang was stunned, stood still, blinked, and didn't say anything for a long time.

Yes! Pei Yan had clearly sent someone to bring her a message just now, asking her not to suffer any loss, but why did she always only think of Pei Yan's bad points and not feel his good points?

Is it because she has her own opinion about Pei Yan that she also has a prejudice against what Pei Yan says?

Yu Tang sat down at the round table, leaning his elbows on it and reflecting on himself.

Since she and Pei Yan met, every time they met, they were not very happy, but she couldn't deny that Pei Yan helped her solve big problems every time. But he was too vicious and talked too much, so she only remembered his bad side after receiving his kindness.

But she knew that Pei Yan was a proud and arrogant person, and even if he did something good, he would not tell you clearly.

On the other hand, it can be considered as doing good deeds without leaving a name!

Yu Tang thought of Pei Yan's stern face and burst out laughing.

Serves him right! Who made him so bad tempered?

But he has such a bad temper that he suffers losses too easily.

She also needs to change her attitude slowly. She can't just think about his bad side and forget his good side when something happens.

Yu Tang was thinking over there, but Shuang Tao looked at her with wide eyes and said cautiously: "Miss, what's wrong with you? You are sad one moment and happy the next..."

It made Shuangtao feel a little scared.

I always feel that something big has happened to Yu Tang, but she can't find any trace of it, and I don't know what to do.

"It's okay, it's okay." Yu Tang came back to his senses, looked at the table full of candies and pastries, thought for a while, and told her, "Take these things to Mrs. Chen and say that they were sent by the Pei family. Then ask Madam, Miss Xu, Madam Yang San, and Miss Pei if they want to send some over."

The fresh cherries are not only beautiful in appearance, but also in price. Giving them out at this time is a very prestigious thing.

Shuangtao left immediately.

Chen thought Yu Tang was very thoughtful. She put down the pen she was using to copy Buddhist scriptures and said to Mrs. Chen and Shuang Tao, "Pretend to be more beautiful. Miss Xu, Madam Yang San, and the young ladies of the Pei family are all very discerning. Don't let good things be ruined by you."

The two of them giggled and divided the things that Pei Yan had sent over, then took them to Yu Tang for review. Yu Tang nodded, and Shuang Tao then went to deliver the things.

Miss Xu was confused when she received the gift.

She had just separated from Yu Tang, so why did Yu Tang send her so many things? This was not a city, she could go to the market to buy things anytime. But if they were bought from small vendors outside the temple, she had seen the market after all, and she could tell at a glance that these were not things that ordinary vendors could make.

Shuang Tao followed Yu Tang's instructions and replied with a smile: "It was sent by the elders of the Pei family. Miss thought it was delicious, so she asked them to send some for you and the third wife to taste."

The lecture lasted nine days. Those who could understand were fascinated. For those ladies like them who had no experience, they could only listen to it as a story. How could they feel anything? How could they sit still? With these snacks, they could still get by.

Miss Xu happily accepted it and asked her maid to bring some peaches and plums to Shuangtao as a return gift.

Shuang Tao didn't hesitate to thank Yu Tang, took the fruit, and went to deliver candies and cakes to the young ladies of the Pei family.

Miss Xu saw that she was carrying and hugging things, and knew that the Yu family only had two maids, so she simply told Ah Fu: "Help Shuang Tao to deliver the things over."

Because of Miss Xu, Ah Fu had become familiar with Shuang Tao, who was beside Yu Tang, in the past few days. The two of them could even talk to each other. Hearing this, Ah Fu agreed with a smile on his face and helped Shuang Tao take half of the things.

Shuang Tao thanked Miss Xu and left with Ah Fu.

The women of the Pei family lived next door to Miss Xu, but if they wanted to go there, they had to go around a bamboo path outside. It was a bright spring day, the path was quiet, and the sound of birds could be heard from both sides from time to time. Shuangtao and Ah Fu felt refreshed.

Ah Fu asked about Shuang Taoyu's family: "I heard that your family is in the lacquerware business. Can you ask your young lady to talk to our young lady and sell the goods in the capital?"

This way, the Yu family can earn more money and hire more maids, so they don't have to rely on Shuangtao for everything.

Shuang Tao smiled and said, "This is the boss's business, how can we butt in on it?"

As the two were talking, they ran into the young ladies of the Song and Peng families, who were standing by the bamboo forest, instructing a few maids to pick bamboo peaches beside the pavilion.

Ah Fu was shocked and said, "This flower is poisonous."

Shuang Tao was also shocked and said, "The bamboo peach is poisonous? I didn't even know that!"

Ah Fu said: "This is what our aunt said. Our aunt is never wrong."

Shuang Tao hesitated and said, "Should we say something?"

The main reason was that the young ladies from the Song and Peng families were very proud. She was afraid that if she spoke directly, it would hurt the reputation of the two young ladies. Not only would they not listen, but they would also hold a grudge against her and cause trouble for the Yu family.

Ah Fu was more knowledgeable than Shuang Tao. She thought for a moment and whispered, "We'll tell the young ladies of the Pei family when we meet them later. If they don't know, I'll tell our young lady when we go back. This way, if something goes wrong, the Pei family won't be involved."

Shuang Tao looked at Ah Fu's shining eyes and praised him sincerely: "Ah Fu, you are younger than me, but you have more ideas than me. I have to learn from you."

Ah Fu's face turned red and he didn't know what to say.

The two of them were ready to pass by the women of the Song and Peng families, but the women of the Song and Peng families had no intention of letting them go. Especially Miss Song Liu, who was severely reprimanded by the Fourth Madam of the Song family after returning home, and was also fined a month's salary. After returning home, she was asked to copy the "Nu Yi" three times, which made her lose face. If the women of the other families were not there, given the temper of the Fourth Madam of the Song family, she would have sent her back to Suzhou City early in the morning.

Seeing Ah Fu and Shuang Tao, she was naturally furious. She stopped them, looked at the things in their hands with disdain, and said, "Where is your young lady? Is she still sick? Is she not going to go out with us?"

Ah Fu had seen many such fools. She smiled and bowed to Miss Song Liu, saying humbly, "Our young lady has to stay at home to take care of the third wife, and Miss Yu is copying Buddhist scriptures. I'm afraid she can't leave the temple today. I can only wait for a chance to go out and play with Miss Song again in the future."

Miss Song Liu's face sulked when she heard this. The youngest lady in the Peng family was the eighth child. She didn't want to cause any trouble, so she smiled and said before Miss Song Liu could speak: "Are you guys going to deliver something? Go quickly! Otherwise it will take too long and make your young lady wait anxiously."

Ah Fu and Shuang Tao hurriedly thanked Miss Peng Ba and wanted to leave with their things.

Miss Song Liu was unwilling to accept this and asked, "Who is this gift for?"

Ah Fu thought it was not a big deal. Even if she was hiding it, the Song family would find out if they were interested. So he said honestly, "The elders of the Pei family gave some food to Miss Yu, and Miss Yu also gave some to our young lady and several young ladies of the Pei family. Isn't this a bit too much? Our young lady asked me to help Sister Shuangtao deliver it."

Miss Song Liu was puzzled when she heard this and asked, "Where are you from?"

Ah Fu said, "It came from our young lady's place."

Miss Song Liu asked again: "Why did Miss Yu give it to your young lady first?"

Ah Fu felt that Miss Song Liu was being a bit too much, so he said with a bit of impatience, "Miss Yu lives next door to our young lady, so she's closer to our home, so she'll be sent to us first."

Miss Song Liu was about to jump up and down when she heard this, but Miss Song Qi held her back and said to Ah Fu and Shuang Tao, "Go and deliver the things! We have to go back too."

Ah Fu and Shuang Tao didn't know what was going on, but they could see that Miss Song Liu was very angry. Miss Song Qi was very anxious and didn't dare to stay here any longer. She bowed hastily and left quickly.

Miss Song Liu couldn't help but get angry: "What is the relationship between that Yu and the Pei family? I have nothing to say about Miss Xu and Madam Yang San living in the best meditation room with the female members of the Pei family, but why did that Yu also live there? Isn't this bullying by the Pei family?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately knew that she had said the wrong thing.

A wife is honored by her husband. Similarly, how the Pei family treats the Song family shows the status of the Song family in the eyes of the Pei family.

The Song family has been flattering the Pei family greatly in recent years. The Song family feels that only they know about it, so they naturally don't want to let the Peng family know.

She hurriedly tried to save him, "Sister Peng, I didn't sleep all night yesterday. Did you guys sleep well?"

The Peng family and the Song family came together and lived next to each other. Who knew that they seemed to live next door to the women of the Pei family, but the small garden behind the chapel was close to the outer wall of the temple. It was very quiet on weekdays, but now the small vendors from the foot of the mountain have set up stalls on the mountain, so some people have set up sheds outside the wall to live temporarily. People in the market not only talk loudly, but also like to drink a little wine and brag late at night. In the quiet night, the movement seems particularly loud.

Miss Song Liu got up in a bad mood and went to find Mrs. Song Si and asked politely if she could move to another place.

Fourth Mrs. Song chose to live here because she could be close to the women of the Pei family. Why would she listen to the complaints of Sixth Miss Song?

Miss Song Liu got angry again when she returned to her room.

At this moment, she suddenly discovered that Yu Tang had moved into the quietest meditation room in the east. How could she not be angry!

Miss Peng Ba looked in the direction of Yu Tang's yard, her eyes flickering, without saying a word.

Miss Peng Qi smiled gently and said, "We didn't sleep well yesterday either. But that's how it is out there. We can just bear with it and it will pass."

Miss Song Liu, however, couldn't help herself.

Miss Song Qi looked very unhappy. She grabbed her and said, "What do you want? Do you want to move to another place with Miss Yu? That also depends on whether Fourth Aunt agrees or not? Is the Pei family willing or not? Are you ready to do whatever you want without caring about anything?"

Miss Song Liu thought of Mrs. Song Si's tense face this morning and murmured, "I, I just can't get over it!"

So what if they are angry? The Song family is now begging the Pei family, can they still question the Pei family?

Miss Song Liu's expression darkened.

Miss Peng Qi looked at her, smiled, and said, "We need to ask about this Miss Yu. I wonder who is familiar with her?"
