Pei Yan didn't feel wronged at all and said, "It's all because of you! Can't you not go see those brats? And A Dan comes every day, can't you talk to them and let them rest for a few days? You are their aunt."

Isn't she embarrassed?

They used to play together like sisters, but now she suddenly became the elder of the Fifth Miss. It was embarrassing enough, so how could she have the nerve to act so arrogantly in front of them?

Yu Tang said angrily, "Why don't you say anything? You are their third uncle. They just pretended not to see you when you had a stern face. So will it work if I say something?"

Pei Yan was furious and gave his final order: "I don't care, just drive them all away in the next few days. Otherwise, I will take you to another courtyard to spend a few days."

Isn't that a joke?!

Yu Tang was unwilling.

The two of them pulled each other and rolled onto the bed.

The clouds cleared and the rain stopped. Yu Tang hid under the quilt and dared not show his face.

Pei Yan looked refreshed. He changed into a plain egg-blue silk gown and hung a silver purse and seven gold ornaments on it. He said to Yu Tang, "I'm going to the front yard. The head of the manor is coming to report the accounts soon. Several housekeepers want to discuss this matter with me!"

Yu Tang lay in the quilt and hummed.

That voice, sweet and mellow, reminded Pei Yan of Yu Tang's delicate white skin. He couldn't help it, so he leaned over the bedside and flirted with Yu Tang for a long time. Yu Tang kicked him, and then he laughed and walked out of the room.

Yu Tang was too embarrassed to see the Fifth Miss, so when the Fifth Miss came over, he had to ask Qing Yuan to say that she had not gotten up yet.

The fourth young lady exclaimed in surprise: "Could it be that Third Aunt is pregnant?"

"No way?" Miss Five was stunned and asked Miss Four, "How did you know? Even my mother doesn't know yet."

The second and third young ladies were older and had been engaged. The maids around them had taught them some things about human relations. The two looked at each other in horror when they heard this. They were just hesitating about how to stop the fourth and fifth young ladies from talking nonsense when they heard the fourth young lady confidently say, "Of course I know. My cousin was like this when she was pregnant. She slept during the day and at night, and seemed to be unable to wake up all day long. My aunt said that this was normal. It was like this when pregnant. She also said that when you are pregnant, you have to eat for yourself and raise the baby for two people, so you must eat well."

The fifth lady thought what she said made sense and nodded continuously.

The Third Miss was thinking, Yu Tang had only been married for less than a full month, if she really had a child, wouldn’t it be... If it were to be made public, not only would the Yu family be embarrassed, but Third Uncle Pei Yan would also be embarrassed!

She called the two little ones and said to Qing Yuan, "Since Third Aunt is resting, we won't disturb her. We will come to see her in two days."

Qing Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Pei Yan's dissatisfaction had long been noticed by those who served him, except for the Third Madam who was still confused. They were still wondering whether they should remind the Third Madam, but they didn't expect that the Third Madam couldn't hold back her anger and exploded.

Now that several Miss Peis are willing not to come for the time being, they are naturally happy.

Qing Yuan and others happily saw off the Miss Peis.

The second young lady couldn't help but wonder, "Are we really that unpopular? Could it be that they have turned against us just because we are their elders?"

Miss San always felt that her cousin was biased against Yu Tang. She smiled and said, "I think we go there too often. Aunt San just got married, so she must have a lot of things to do. Apart from anything else, her dowry is quite large. It will take a lot of time to count and store all these things."

The second young lady disagreed and said, "Whose dowry is not enough? Are all those servants around her just sitting there doing nothing?"

The Third Miss never argued with her about this, but the Second Miss's words reminded her of Gu Xi. She asked, "Do you know when Sister Gu and my eldest cousin are going to get married?"

Speaking of this, the second young lady curled her lips in dissatisfaction and said, "My aunt said that she would discuss it with her parents first. My eldest cousin has already lost his father, so he can't be without an uncle!"

The Third Miss was also unhappy after hearing this. She said, "Is it possible that the uncle of the Yang family can really make it to Lin'an?"

"So my aunt wanted my cousin to get married in Hangzhou." The second young lady poured out everything she knew without hesitation. "My great-aunt probably didn't agree, so my aunt bought a yard for my cousin in Hangzhou and renovated the house with her own money. My great-aunt was very unhappy when she found out. But my aunt insisted on doing so. Now they don't have to inherit the family lineage, and the elders in the family want to compensate. They will probably agree. But my great-aunt will definitely be even more uncomfortable then." Then he commented, "I think she has reached a dead end. She has to be different from my great-aunt. She is comfortable, but why doesn't she think about my eldest and second cousins ​​and let them know how to get around in the Pei family in the future. Sister Gu is also pitiful. Before she even gets married, we can imagine how she will be bullied by both sides. I don't know whether this marriage is good or bad. Alas!"

The Third Miss thought more thoroughly than the Second Miss. She smiled and said, "Every family is like this - if there is no contradiction, there will be another contradiction. Although it is not pleasant to be in a dilemma, it is better than the Li family. You have heard that when Mrs. Li and Lin were looking for a marriage partner for Mr. Li, even the merchants in Hangzhou City went to look for a match. The Li family is really going to fail."

According to their thinking, the more urgent it is, the more they must hold on, find ways to marry into an official family, and win support in their careers, so that the Li family can turn the tables.

"The Li family is too short-sighted, otherwise the Gu family would not have wanted to cancel the engagement." said the second lady.

A few little girls went to play with the second young lady while chatting in private.

The second young lady's mother warmly entertained the younger generation in the family.

The Pei family and the Yang family have already agreed that the second young lady's wedding date is tentatively set for the second day of December. Because Tonglu and Lin'an are still two days away, the second young lady Pei needs to arrange the marriage a few days in advance and choose the person to escort the bride. This matter still needs to be discussed by the two families, so the wedding date has not been announced yet.

The second young lady can't stay at home for more than a few days.

The second young lady's mother couldn't bear it when she thought about it, so she couldn't help but indulge the second young lady and act according to her temperament.

The fourth and fifth young ladies discussed whether or not to go to Yu Tang's place to play tomorrow.

The Third Miss said, "It's better not to go. Let Third Aunt have a good rest."

Miss Five also agreed.

The fourth young lady didn't say anything. She deliberately went back with the fifth young lady and whispered to her, "I still think it's more fun at Third Aunt's place. There's a lot of food there."

The fifth lady nodded and whispered to the fourth lady, "Shall we go in two days? If we go after a while, there shouldn't be anything wrong, right?"

The fourth and fifth young ladies reached a consensus. When they returned home, the fifth young lady told the second wife the news that Yu Tang was "pregnant" and said, "It was the fourth sister who told them."

The Second Wife was horrified and lectured the Fifth Miss for a long time until the Fifth Miss promised not to talk about it again. Then she went to see Mr. Pei Oldan with a heavy heart and told him the matter in a tactful way.

Old Pei An was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He said, "Before Yu married in, I sent someone to check her pulse and made some blood-replenishing pills for her to take. If she was pregnant, how could I not know? You!"

I really don't know what to say.

This is also the main reason why she cannot hand over the reward to the second wife.

The second wife blushed with embarrassment.

Pei Laoan took the opportunity to instruct her: "You must use your brain when encountering things in the future, but you can't think rashly. You must think about the cause and effect and whether it is possible."

The second wife nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

But Mr. Pei knew that she was limited in her ability and it would be difficult to correct her mistakes, so he simply asked her, "How are the things going? Is there any news from Xuan yet?"

The second wife hurriedly said respectfully, "Some of the clothes and furnishings that are not often used have been packed. The second master only said that he met his mentor, and also went to see Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhou."

Pei Laoan comforted her, "Don't be anxious. You can't eat hot dumplings in a hurry. Zhou Zhuangyuan is now the Six Ministries' Attendant. No matter what happens in the future, he can be a minister in the ministry. He is also a passionate person and has a good relationship with the three brothers. You should get closer to him."

The second wife did not know much about the affairs of the court, so she listened to her husband and mother-in-law and responded respectfully.

Seeing that there was nothing to tell her, Mrs. Pei Laoan served tea and sent the guest away.

After leaving Pei Laoan's house, the second wife secretly cursed herself a few words. She couldn't help feeling a little sorry for Yu Tang, so she found some good fabrics from the bottom of the box and sent them to him.

It wasn't a festival at all, and Yu Tang was confused as he held the things.

The Second Wife did not explain, she just said that she was packing up her things, and saw that these pieces of fabric were good and suitable for Yu Tang, so she took them over.

Yu Tang had no choice but to thank him and keep it in mind, thinking of returning the favor later.

However, Pei Yan had a new idea after looking at some pieces of fabric. He hired a few tailors from the Wang family to work at home, drew the patterns himself, and made clothes for Yu Tang.

Yu Tang only wanted to have a good sleep at night, and thought it would be good to divert Pei Yan's attention. Not only did she actively participate in making clothes, she also deliberately selected fabrics, saying that she liked this and didn't like that. This coaxed Pei Yan so much that he wanted to buy back all the fabrics from this year's tribute and make clothes for Yu Tang.

Fortunately, Pei Yan was very busy, and in a blink of an eye, all the manors of the Pei family arrived in Lin'an one after another.

Tong, the head shopkeeper, came out to entertain these estate lords. After learning that Pei Yan was getting married, these estate lords sent the women who had come to pay their respects to Mr. Pei on behalf of the estate to pay their respects to Yu Tang. Some of them also went to Yu's shop, met Yu Yuan, and bought some lacquerware to take back.

At first, Yu Yuan thought that their shop had become famous, and he was very happy. After returning home, he boasted to Xiang Shi. Later, he found out that it was because of Yu Tang, and he was depressed for a while. Fortunately, Xiang Shi comforted him: "This is the way of the world, you can't stop it. Instead of worrying about it here, you might as well follow your aunt's method and make the lacquerware at home, so that others will feel it is worth buying. Maybe they will even recommend it to others! When doing business, don't give up any opportunity."

Later, just as Xiang had said, the Yu family's lacquerware shop gradually received a lot of business recommendations from the Pei family's farm owners. Many farm owners came to their shop to buy things when they wanted to marry off their daughters or add to their belongings. But that's a story for later.
