Of course Pei Yan knew.

He not only knew that this tea was selected by Qingyuan, but also that it was the best Mingqian Longjing tea, a tribute.

It's just that he doesn't like drinking West Lake Longjing tea.

But he is not someone who would put himself in a difficult position.

If it were any other time, he would have just said it out loud.

But he had just met Yu Tang and promised Yu Tang to be sensible, so he couldn't say this as he usually did.

He smiled and said, "You can tell it's good tea by looking at the tea soup. However, I like rock tea more. What kind of tea do you like to drink? The best rock tea is autumn tea. I have a friend in Fujian whose family grows tea. I will get some good rock tea for you to try. Do you like it?" He also said, "My second brother likes Biluochun and Maojian the most. Every year, our family buys some of the best Biluochun and Maojian. I came here in a hurry today and couldn't bring you any. When I go back later, I will ask them to send some to you so you can try it. Tea tasting is like drinking wine. It's fun to try everything."

Yu Tang, who was leaning against the window frame at the back wall and eavesdropping, broke out in a sweat.

This Pei Yan, can he really talk? It's just a cup of tea. If you like it, drink more. If you don't like it, drink less. Why do you have to emphasize what kind of tea you like?

This is not a live-in son-in-law. I will have to live with my father-in-law every day in the future. It would be bad if I don't make some things clear.

Yu Tang was afraid that her father would be angry, so she tiptoed and peeked inside. However, she forgot that because of the hot weather, there was a draft in the study. Others might not be able to smell the faint elegant fragrance on her body, but Pei Yan, who had a very sensitive nose, could smell it immediately.

He turned sideways and saw Yu Tang's dark head.

What is she doing here?

Are you worried that you have offended Yu Wen and caused trouble in their marriage?

Then she underestimated him too much.

Pei Yan sneered in his heart, but for some reason, he didn't feel disgusted at all and even felt happy.

Could it be that it's our own people who can't be called, and the ghosts are running away?

Pei Yan doubted life.

Yu Wen was delighted.

Good tea is hard to come by, and sometimes you can’t buy it even if you have money.

Pei Yan’s words made Yu Wen very moved.

He smiled and said, "Okay! Then I'll wait to taste your delicious tea."

Before he finished speaking, he fell into deep self-blame.

It was agreed that Pei Yan would be called over to show him his attitude, so why was he being led around by Pei Yan the moment they met?

No! How can he support his daughter if this goes on?

Yu Wen immediately frowned, and coughed lightly with some discomfort, then said: "I called you here this time because I have a few things to ask you."

Pei Yan sat upright and said solemnly, "You say."

Yu Wen said, "You know, we only have one daughter in our family. We wanted to keep her at home because we were afraid she would be wronged. If you want to marry our daughter and let her be wronged, our family will not agree. I just want to ask you, if our daughter doesn't adapt to your family, what are you going to do?"

What can I do? Of course I try to adapt!

Pei Yan was a little confused.

He knew that the Yu family valued Yu Tang, otherwise they would not have let her study and write. After meeting Yu Tang, he guessed that Yu Wen came to him to ask him to promise to treat Yu Tang well in the future, and might also make some requirements on the betrothal gifts or dowry - for example, after the betrothal gifts from the Pei family were delivered, they would be rewritten into the dowry list, or it was agreed that the dowry would go with Yu Tang, and even Yu Tang's children could not touch it casually. He did not expect Yu Wen to ask this.

Fortunately, he had thought about this issue carefully when he was considering marriage with Yu Tang. He was stunned for a few breaths when he heard this, and then said sincerely: "It depends on what Miss Yu thinks?"

Both Yu Wen, who was sitting in the study, and Yu Tang, who was standing outside the study, were very surprised and pricked up their ears to listen. Yu Wen even asked, "What do you mean?"

Pei Yan said: "When the upper teeth are fighting with the lower teeth, Miss Yu is a smart person. If she backs off when encountering something, a small matter will become a big one. But as long as Miss Yu is willing, I will definitely stand on her side. If she is wrong, we should discuss it privately and not let outsiders see and laugh at us."

As for the rest, he said nothing.

Some things and some people, no matter how well you explain them, are useless. You will only know them after you get to know them and see what happens.

He wanted to learn from Fei Zhiwen, but Yu Tang couldn't be like Mrs. Fei.

Yu Wen listened, and his anxious heart finally settled down.

People value promises, especially people like Pei Yan.

As long as he can fulfill his promise, Yu Wen feels that Yu Tang's marriage will not be too bad.

He couldn't help but say earnestly, "Atang lives in a different place than you do. She must have many things she doesn't understand at the beginning, so you have to teach her patiently. So I'll say this in advance. If you don't have the patience for her, you don't have to force yourself to be together. No matter how poor our Yu family is, we can still have Atang to feed us."

When that day really comes, it will be impossible to get the child back.

The best case scenario is that I can bring a girl back to raise for a few years, and then when the time comes to officially get married, I still have to send her back, and I can't let anyone know.

Yu Wen sighed deeply.

Pei Yan thought of Yu Tang's face that looked like a stepmother before he came, and simply took the initiative to refill Yu Wen's cup of tea, saying: "Uncle, Atang is no worse than anyone else. Even if you don't believe in yourself, you have to believe in my vision. I won't make a mistake in people!"

Yu Wen likes to hear this sentence.

Yu Tang's previous anger at Pei Yan disappeared with these words.

She continued to listen to the corner with a smile.

Yu Wen nodded with emotion.

Pei Yan took the opportunity to ask Yu Wen about the engagement: "According to my family's opinion, we will exchange engagement letters first, and when the mourning period is over, we will officially set a date and get married before October 1st. In this way, my nephew Pei Tong can also get married before the New Year. Do you think this is okay? Or what do you think is a good idea? I will go back and discuss it with my second brother and mother, and then give you a set of rules for your review."

The attitude is very upright and respectful.

Yu Wen felt that Pei Yan's attitude was the right one to treat his father-in-law. He thought that he and Pei Yan were just fellow villagers before, so Pei Yan would naturally behave differently in front of him. He suddenly felt that Pei Yan was in a difficult situation. From being a peer to being a junior, Pei Yan could still bow his head in front of him, which showed his sincerity.

He felt that he should show his sincerity, so he said, "This arrangement is good. You are not young anymore, and you have younger generations to support you. Our family has no objection to you getting married earlier. But we need to choose the wedding date carefully. I am thinking whether we should ask the abbot of Zhaoming Temple to help us choose a date."

Pei Yan was very understanding and thought that this was just like him flattering his teacher, Mr. Zhang. Everything would be fine once he figured it out.

"Then I will go to Zhaoming Temple later and ask Master Huikong to help you choose a few dates." He said immediately, "Please see if there is anything else I should pay attention to. I don't know much about these, and I hope you can help me with some pointers."

Yu Wen was a well-known scholar in Lin'an. He was easy-going and generous, and had good relationships with people. He was often invited to be a guest speaker, and was very familiar with the affairs of weddings and funerals.

Since he had decided to let Pei Yan go, he naturally would not ask for too much. He said, "That's all. I have no other requests."

Pei Yan secretly sighed, thinking that it would be safer to continue consolidating the hard-earned good impression, so he simply asked: "Then do you have any other requirements when sending the betrothal gift?"

Yu Wen said: "No!"

He was not greedy for the betrothal gift from the Pei family. He was prepared to give it to his daughter as a dowry no matter how much betrothal gift the Pei family gave.

Pei Yan thought of the situation when Gu Chang and the Yin family were engaged, and said, "That's good. After I finish my filial duty, I will go to the mountains to shoot a pair of wild geese myself."

Of course wild geese must be given as a gift for an engagement, but nowadays wild geese are hard to find and it may not be possible to get one.

Yu Wen was even more satisfied that Pei Yan was so thoughtful, and the two of them started chatting about all sorts of things, and the atmosphere was quite good.

Yu Tang smiled, thinking that although this guy often said shocking things, he was quite reliable at critical moments and was someone he could trust.

She stopped standing here feeding the bugs and took Shuangtao to the front hall.

I happened to meet Mr. Wu coming back from the place where he met Pei Xuan. He was sweating profusely and gulping down tea.

He saw Yu Tang's eyes light up, and then her eyes smiled into slits, and said happily: "Miss, I have to congratulate you. When you go back to your parents' home in the future, remember to go to your uncle Wu's house to see your aunt Wu."

Before, she was really worried about Yu Tang's marriage, and she would often ask Chen to find a suitable family.

Yu Tang bowed to Mr. Wu gracefully and thanked him.

Master Wu laughed, feeling that all his fatigue was gone. He turned to Chen and said, "Master Pei will choose an auspicious day and send someone to get the girl's wedding gift. We will place it in the temple to see if it is suitable. If it is not suitable, we will have to think of asking someone to make an interpretation. You should prepare the girl's dowry in the next few days. These things are trivial and tiring. I will ask our family to come and help. If there is anything missing, go to our storehouse and look for it. When there is a chance in the future, just return it to us."

Chen declined repeatedly.

But Master Wu said, "The girl is not young anymore, and the third master of the Pei family can't wait any longer. I think if this marriage is settled, the Pei family will come to ask for the girl soon, and you will have time to prepare small things for the house. Don't be polite to me about this matter. When our family needs something in the future, you should open the warehouse as quickly as I do."

After all, the main concern is that the Yu family has no money.

Chen also wanted to give her daughter a respectable marriage, so she didn't refuse blindly. Instead, she smiled and said, "Then let me discuss it with my father first."

Mr. Wu didn't need to rush forward, so he smiled and agreed, asking, "Why didn't I see Hui Li? Is he still angry? I don't have anything to do later, so I'll go and persuade him."

Chen smiled awkwardly, hesitating, not knowing what to say. Wang was more straightforward, saying, "Our uncle is talking to the third master of the Pei family in the study!"

"And the third elder of the Pei family?" Elder Wu was stunned.

Chen told Mr. Wu that Yu Wen had called Pei Yan over to talk.

When Master Wu thought of Pei Yan's cold face, his heart started pounding. He stood up and went to the study: "I'll go take a look and ask Hui Li for a cup of tea!"
