Chapter 71: Message



Yu Wen, who stayed in the lobby, certainly had no idea what happened in the flower hall.

He was answering Pei Yan's words openly: "...It was all our daughter's idea. I didn't agree at first, mainly because I was afraid that the daughter would be criticized, but she insisted. She said that she would find a son-in-law in the future, and if he was not strong enough, she might not be able to control the man she brought into the house. I discussed it with her uncle for a long time and felt that what she said made sense. Besides, my brother and I couldn't come up with a better idea than her. So this matter was settled." After saying this, he was afraid that Pei Yan would Pei Yan felt that his daughter was too strong and had a bad impression of her. When his daughter became the head of the family in the future, if the Yu family encountered any problems, Pei Yan was unwilling to protect her. He hurriedly explained for his daughter, "Don't think that she was a little willful today and acted like she was making trouble. She is not like this at ordinary times. In fact, she has a lively and cheerful personality and is very considerate and attentive. Otherwise, my husband and I would not have wanted to keep her at home. She did this today just to trick Li Duan, so she did it on purpose."

Pei Yan nodded, but his heart was in a mess, as if there were weeds growing wildly.

It turns out that all of this was really Miss Yu's idea.

She really did not disappoint his intuition!

Bold and tough!

Even an ordinary man probably wouldn't have her courage.

However, her father and brother were too tolerant of her. They allowed her to do whatever she wanted in such a serious matter.

If Li Duan was a little smarter and Li Jun a little more cunning, the Yu family would not have been able to gain any advantage today.

Didn't Miss Yu think about the consequences if this thing failed?

Thinking of this, Pei Yan couldn't help but look at Yu Wen again.

He has the appearance of a typical Jiangnan scholar, he is well-maintained, looks elegant yet a bit unrestrained. At first glance, he is the kind of man who is impatient with mundane affairs and only cares about romance all day long. Yet he dotes on his daughter so much that he lets her do whatever she wants.

Perhaps it is because of this that Miss Yu has developed such a fearless attitude?

Usually, children in families with weak parents are very talented.

Pei Yan couldn't help but ask: "Miss Yu, have you ever thought about what you are going to do if the Li family doesn't fall for it?"

Of course, Yu Wen couldn't let Pei Yan question his daughter - as long as the Yu family was in Lin'an City, no, even if they were not in Lin'an City, they still had a neighborly relationship with the Pei family, so they needed to be on good terms with the Pei family. Just like in Hangzhou City, when Yu Tang had diarrhea in the middle of the night, if he hadn't taken the name card of the third master of the Pei family, how could he have invited Doctor Yu to see him?

Such affection should never be lost at any time!

"Of course I have thought about it." He said without thinking too much, "But our daughter said that with Li Duan's character, he would definitely be fooled. She also said that everyone has weaknesses and everyone has something they want the most. As long as you find it, you can get it right away." At this point, he thought of the words Yu Tang used to describe Li Duan. The corners of his mouth curved and a little smile appeared on his face. "You don't know that our daughter has been naughty since she was a child. I always treated her as an ignorant little girl. But I didn't expect that when something happened at home, she would stand up and make decisions. It shows that I didn't care about her enough. She has grown up when I didn't know. Oh, if I had known this, I should have let her read more books. Maybe she can become a talented woman!"

Pei Yan couldn't help but think of Yu Tang chewing on a pig's trotter.

With her personality, even if she reads more books, I'm afraid she won't change much, right?

He curled his lips in his heart, but didn't show it on his face. He said, "I thought you taught her all these, but now that you said this, I know she was born this way."

"That's right!" Yu Wen sighed, "If she was a son, I wouldn't have to worry about anything."

Pei Yan then turned the topic to Yu Tang's marriage: "I think Li Jun is good. Why didn't your family consider him at the beginning? Although it is good to attract bribes, I think your nephew is also an honest man. He should be able to take on two wives, right?"

The implication is that since the Yu family loves their daughter so much, they should consider her lifelong happiness as the priority, and should not force her to marry or leave the house.

Yu Wenhe didn't intend to do so. When it came to this topic, he opened his heart to Pei Yan.

"Her mother and I planned this from the beginning," he said, "and our daughter didn't have to stay at home. In fact, the Li family came to propose marriage before the Wei family, but our daughter said that no matter how good Li Jun was, no husband would embarrass his mother for his wife, and Mrs. Li was too wicked. My wife made a careful inquiry and felt that what our daughter said made sense. It just so happened that Tong, the shopkeeper, arranged the marriage with the Wei family, so we thought about it first. Who knew that everyone was satisfied, so the matter was settled... I didn't expect that this would harm Xiaoshan. So our daughter felt upset, and she accidentally found some clues, so she followed them all the way, and she was unwilling to give up no matter what, and that was the reason."

It turned out that the person Miss Yu fell in love with at first sight was the dead Wei Xiaoshan instead of Li Jun?

Pei Yan thought of the way Yu Tang seduced Li Jun in Zhaoming Temple... Is Wei Xiaoshan really very handsome?

He tried hard to recall the appearance of Mr. Wei and Wei Xiaoyuan.

I can’t tell…

So he has a very good character? Or is he more likable to her than Li Jun?

Pei Yan suddenly became curious about Wei Xiaoshan.

He said, "So, Miss Yu doesn't fancy the Li family at all, and it has nothing to do with Zhao Yao?"

Because Mrs. Li is not only Li Jun's mother, but also Li Duan's mother.

Yu Wen nodded, not hiding anything, and said, "It's mainly because I didn't fancy the Li family."

Pei Yan's forehead broke out in sweat when he thought of the burning look Li Duan gave Yu Tang.

It seems that Li Duan has a unilateral interest in Miss Yu.

He asked, "Are you going to let Miss Yu decide on her own marriage?"

Even if Yu Wen really thought so, he wouldn't dare to admit it!

If this is admitted, and they have to decide the marriages of their children, what kind of family will their Yu family become?

"It's mainly because our Yu family is small." Yu Wen said tactfully, "Whether it's my elder brother or I, we all want our children to live well. Marriage is a union of two families, not enemies. If our children can fall in love with each other, it's better than forcing them to be together. Don't you agree?"

Pei Yan doesn't think so.

Didn't his father think the same way at first? So no matter whether it was his eldest brother or his second brother's marriage, they had looked at each other in advance. As a result, his eldest brother and his eldest sister-in-law were very loving, but his family and the Yang family were still like enemies.

Obviously, this kind of thing varies from person to person.

Then why did Miss Yu target Li Duan?

From Yu Wen's tone, Yu Tang knew Li Duan's character quite well.

Pei Yan always felt unhappy until he figured it out.

He said, "If Wei Xiaoshan were still alive, Miss Yu wouldn't have to worry about getting married."

"That's right." Yu Wen thought that Yu Yuan's marriage could not be kept secret for long, so he simply said, "The Wei family is really a rare and kind family." He told Pei Yan what happened after Wei Xiaoshan's death, and said, "This is also because our two families are destined to be together. Our daughter's marriage to the Wei family did not go through, but her eldest brother has been engaged to the cousin of the Wei family, and they will get married in the early spring of next year. Then, please invite Master Pei San to have a drink at the wedding."

Pei Yan was stunned.

The Yu family really favors the Wei family. Even if their sons and daughters cannot become in-laws, they will be tied together as in-laws.

The tongue and teeth are bound to fight with each other, so there is no such thing as perfection.

This means that Wei Xiaoshan is no longer with us, and the best impression remains in the best time.

If Wei Xiaoshan were still alive, there might have been a dispute between the Wei and Yu families over how much betrothal gifts to give, which might have created a rift.

Pei Yan despised the Yu family in his heart and said perfunctorily: "I will definitely go to congratulate them when the time comes."

At that time, Pei Yan had not yet finished mourning, so how could he possibly attend the wedding?

Yu Wenming knew Pei Yan was being polite, but he was still very happy to see him answer so readily. He had a better impression of Pei Yan and spoke without any guard. He even mentioned Yu Tang's marriage: "If Master Pei San knows any good kids, please help our daughter to take care of them."

He was afraid that after what happened today, Yu Tang's marriage would become more difficult.

Manager Tong is just a respectable manager of the Pei family, yet he is able to know such a good family as the Wei family. With the connections of the third elder of the Pei family, he must know even more good families.

"As long as the child is well, it doesn't matter whether he is married or not." He also made a special instruction.

Pei Yan was dumbfounded.

He had encountered many requests in his life, but this was the first time he was asked to be a matchmaker.

Pei Yan looked at Yu Wen carefully again.

He doesn't really want me to be a matchmaker for Miss Yu, does he?

Yu Wen really thought so, so he told Pei Yan about his family background, hoping that Pei Yan could act as a matchmaker and find a suitable family for Yu Tang.

He sighed, "We used to have some wealth, but it was all because of me that I made the wrong friends and got cheated, and ended up draining all our wealth."

Yu Wen also told Pei Yan everything about how he bought the fake painting.

"Wait a minute!" Pei Yan was stunned for a long time. When he came to his senses, he couldn't help but interrupt Yu Wen's chatter, "You mean, you bought a fake painting, and Miss Yu helped you clean up the mess?!"

What a rotten stall!

Yu Wen was somewhat dissatisfied with Pei Yan's words, but he did not show it because he had to give Pei Yan some face. Instead, he said patiently, "It's not a bad stall. I just didn't notice it for a moment and was deceived by my friend..."

That's still a rotten stall!

Pei Yan ignored Yu Wen's flattery and said with astonishment in his eyes: "So, if Miss Yu hadn't recovered the money, your wife would have no money left for medical treatment and medicine?"

After hearing what Pei Yan said, Yu Wen thought about the situation at that time, and his face turned red. He said stubbornly: "That's not the case. It's just that my family is in financial difficulty..."

Then he really misunderstood Miss Yu at that time.

I thought she was just trying to make some money by pawning the shop.

No, the core thing has not changed, Miss Yu did go to the car accident. But to do it for personal gain and to do it out of necessity to save her mother's life are two different things.

Pei Yan thought of the chance encounter with Yu Tang on Changxing Street.

And the words he used to scold Yu Tang.

It's indeed too harsh for a little girl.

Pei Yan couldn't sit still anymore.

He straightened his back and drank another cup of tea. The uneasiness in his heart not only did not disappear, but became more and more intense.

Especially when he thought about how Yu Tang never explained anything to him or complained to him from beginning to end.

But he forgot that it was not that Yu Tang had not tried to explain to him, nor had she not complained to him, but his face turned cold before she even opened her mouth, so Yu Tang had no chance.
