Yu Tang was both amused and annoyed, and said, "I really don't have any thoughts about Master Gu."

Miss Xu didn't quite believe it and said, "Look at the look in Mr. Gu's eyes. He seems to be quite familiar with him."

Yu Tang had no choice but to say, "That's because I know his sister, Miss Gu. Don't you have times like this?"

Miss Xu understood and said, "Meeting an old friend in a foreign country?!"

"Yes!" Yu Tang said with a smile, "Miss Gu will be marrying in Lin'an soon."

That's the kind of relationship where you can't see each other when you look up, but you can see each other when you look down.

Miss Xu nodded to show her understanding, and hesitated whether to tell Yu Tang about Yin Mingyuan's little cousin.

Yu Tang pulled her to the round table in the inner room, poured her a cup of tea, and asked her with a smile: "What do you want to see me about? Is there any grudge between you and the young lady of the Yin family?"

Miss Xu's desire to speak, which had been forcibly suppressed, was suddenly aroused again.

She jumped up and down, "How can it be that I have a grudge against her? It's obviously her who has a grudge against me. You don't know this person. If you knew her, you would not be able to stand her either. Now, she is getting married. I wonder if she dares to frown when she sees me in the future."

Miss Yin is married, and Miss Xu is her sister-in-law from her natal family. She should respect her no matter what.

Yu Tang heard Miss Xu's tone, and Miss Yin seemed to be very dissatisfied with her, so Yu Tang smiled and said, "She is your sister-in-law. If you can't bear it and really bully her, and she complains to Lord Yin, what will you let Master Yin and Lord Yin do?"

Miss Xu was very distressed after hearing this and said, "You don't know, when I first met her, she was only seven or eight years old. She had a stern face and asked me if I was her third brother's wife. She also said that I talked too much, was too noisy, and liked to meddle in other people's business. If I wanted to marry into their family, I had to follow the rules and regulations, and women's words and virtues were indispensable. I was so angry at the time that I told her that I would not marry into their family and let her rest assured. If their family canceled the engagement, there would be a lot of people waiting in line to marry me.

"Who knew that she would immediately become like a lit firecracker after hearing that. She blushed and grabbed my collar and insisted that I go apologize to Yin Mingyuan. She also said that she would tell my father and mother about this and ask them to discipline me.

"How could I know that she was so small but so strong? She strangled my throat and it hurt. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I pushed her away.

“She fell to the ground.

"The maid beside me immediately helped her up and asked her if she felt unwell. She didn't say anything and just kept shaking her head.

"I never thought that she would be found to have a dislocated arm after she returned... Not only did I apologize to her, but my father also forced me to take care of her for several days. But she still refused to give in and insisted that I go to my father and promise that she would marry Yin Mingyuan when she grew up."

Miss Xu's voice got lower and lower as she spoke: "I didn't mean it. She was the same. She was so young, but she was so patient. She didn't say a word."

After all is said and done, Miss Xu still feels quite guilty, otherwise she wouldn't remember it so clearly.

Besides, who hasn’t made a few mistakes as a child?

Yu Tang held Miss Xu's hand, patted it gently, and said, "We are all grown up now. When we think back to our childhood, we only feel interesting and friendly. I don't think Miss Yin is a petty person. She must have stopped blaming you."

Miss Xu probably felt better after she said it. She sighed and said, "Although I have been naughty since I was a child, I have never hurt anyone. She is the only one who has been pushed down by me. It is reasonable for her to dislike me." Then she changed the subject, "Her situation is a bit similar to yours. A few years ago, Yin Mingyuan's second uncle was going to keep Miss Yin at home, but I don't know why he changed his mind. Maybe it's really hard to find a live-in son-in-law? Anyway, I'm still very happy that she can get married. At least we don't have to see each other every day."

Yu Tang wanted to cheer up Miss Xu, so he teased her intentionally: "Even if she stayed at home, she wouldn't see you every day, right? Don't worry about it. If she stayed at home, you should treat her with respect. Now that she is getting married, you should be polite to her and fulfill your responsibilities as a sister-in-law. But I think that no matter what, the aunt of their Yin family is so famous, whether she gets married or not, she will probably take care of your family's affairs."

Miss Xu pouted and said, "So these ladies in the Yin family... are sometimes quite annoying."

Yu Tang laughed out loud.

Miss Xu thought about it and found it interesting. She started laughing and began to tell Yu Tang about the gossip about the Yin family. "Several aunts in the Yin family also think that Yin Mingyuan's cousin should stay at home. It is said that his second uncle also agreed and raised Miss Yin like a boy. Not only is she proficient in farm affairs, but she also manages the shop. It is said that some accountants have to spend half a day to calculate the accounts, but when she gets the accounts, she can understand them at a glance. Yin Mingyuan I think having a sister like this can save a lot of trouble. Who knew that things would change so quickly? You don’t know, when I first heard that Madam Yang San was entrusted by several aunts to find a husband for Miss Yin, I was so surprised that my jaw almost dropped. I was thinking at the time that if she could get married before she was 20 years old, the Yin family’s ancestral tomb would be filled with smoke... Fortunately, I just thought about it and didn’t say it out loud. Otherwise, it would not end well today. "

Miss Xu really dares to say anything.

The little guy in Yu Tang wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Miss Xu was imagining: "What do you think, after Miss Yin and Gu Chaoyang get married, will they live in the Gu family's old house in Hangzhou? Or will they follow Gu Chaoyang to the capital?"

Either is possible.

Yu Tang couldn't guess.

In her previous life, Miss Sun lived in the old house of the Gu family in Hangzhou.

Miss Xu said to Yu Tang with regret: "Miss Yin may go to the capital, but you have to stay in Lin'an." At this point, she began to talk wildly, her eyes shining. "How about I ask my mother to adopt you as my goddaughter? That way, you can come to see me often."

Yu Tang smiled and said, "Do you know how long it takes to get from Beijing to Hangzhou? Even if I were your mother's goddaughter, I couldn't visit you often! But don't worry, I'm still learning to manage a shop with my uncle and cousin. Maybe I'll go to Beijing with my cousin in the future. Don't forget me when I come to bother you."

"That's great!" Miss Xu said happily, "I don't remember anyone, but I can't forget you! You must keep your word and come to find me when you come to the capital."

Yu Tang nodded with a smile.

The two of them talked for a long time about this and that before Miss Xu left.

Yu Tang had accompanied Miss Xu and others for shopping for half a day today, and had come back in a very bumpy scooter because they had to walk along the bluestone street. She was already very tired, and as soon as Miss Xu left, she washed up and fell on the bed.

But she couldn't fall asleep and was still thinking about Gu Chang.

I wonder who introduced Gu Chang to someone else?

If Gu Chang marries Miss Yin, his career should be smoother than in his previous life, right?

If this was the case, she could understand why Gu Chang wanted to marry into the Yin family.

However, Gu Chang is almost ten years older than Miss Yin, right?

If Gu Xi knew that Gu Chang had married her such a prominent sister-in-law, she would probably be very proud, right?

In her previous life, she always complained that Miss Sun's family had caused trouble for Gu Chang...

Yu Tang thought about it and realized that if he wanted to know these things, the most appropriate person to ask was Pei Yan.

She found herself looking for Pei Yan for everything... When did Pei Yan become so important in her life?

Yu Tang frowned, not wanting to admit it but feeling a little uncomfortable.

After Pei Yan got married, she would not be able to go to him again, right? Even if she was honest, Pei Yan's wife would definitely be unhappy to see another woman coming to see Pei Yan.

She closed her eyes, stared at the ceiling in a daze, and fell asleep unknowingly.

The next day, she was awakened by a burst of laughter.

Yu Tang opened his eyes and found that Qinglian was the only one guarding the room. Shuangtao, who was supposed to be on duty, was nowhere to be seen.

She couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

Qinglian said hurriedly, "Isn't Master Gu going to get engaged to the Yin family? Master Gu has to go home to report to the elders at home. He prepared to go back early this morning and has sent a servant to give red envelopes to the maids, saying thank you for your care these days."

So Shuangtao went to get her red envelope? That's why it's so busy outside?

As Yu Tang was thinking, Shuang Tao walked in happily. Seeing that Yu Tang had woken up, she waved the Fenghong in her hand and said, "Miss, I think Master Gu is very generous. He not only asked for a few Fenghong for Miss Qinglian, but also asked for a few for you."

Shuang Tao disliked Gu Xi, and by association, she also disliked Gu Chang. She probably thought that letting Gu Chang lose some money was like digging into Gu Xi's corner, which would make her feel better.

It’s just that this is somewhat inconsistent with the Pei family’s style.

But Shuangtao will prepare to get married after returning home, and this approach is more in line with the life in the city.

Yu Tang was not prepared to restrain Shuang Tao. She smiled and asked, "Did Master Gu give us a lot of money as a reward?"

Shuang Tao curled her lips and said, "They said they carried a basket of new money, but I don't think there's much."

At least not as much as they received when they went to pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Pei during the Spring Festival.

Although the servants of Pei's house were all overjoyed as they led Feng Hong to congratulate, there was no smile in their eyes. She could see that they were just being perfunctory. The people of Gu's family should be able to see it too, right?

Shuangtao is a bit bummed out.

Gu Chang was very angry.

How rich must the Pei family be that these maids are indifferent to his rewards?

Although he didn't get much, it was still a few coins, enough to buy some hairpins and melon seeds.

When Gu Xi married into the Pei family, how much dowry should he prepare for her?

Gu Chang thought about the marriage with the Yin family.

How much betrothal gift should he prepare to give honor to the Yin family?

The image of the simple but clean little house of his Sun family, which had a scholarly air, suddenly flashed through Gu Chang's mind.

Maybe that's where he feels comfortable?

But the thought only flashed through his mind and was quickly suppressed in his heart.

He couldn't be like Sun Yat-sen, who had to struggle at the bottom for so many years before finally getting a chance to be a prime minister. He should have a house like Pei Yan's, which looked simple but was beautifully decorated...
