Chapter 384 Single tree
Gu Chang’s head is all big.
It has been three years since Mr. Pei passed away. In other words, it has been three years since Pei Yan took over the affairs of the Pei family. Even if there were any unbalanced accounts, he would have settled it a long time ago. It’s impossible to see how much money Mr. Pei left behind and what to see from the accounts.
Moreover, with the status of Grandpa Pei, 300,000 taels of silver, Pei Yan’s price is already a conscience price, and to Pei Tong, who wants to divide the estate, he is very worthy of him.
But he didn’t want Pei Tong to divide his clan.
In the long run, the division of the clan is very unfavorable to Pei Tong.
Let’s not say that Pei Tong has not yet joined the officialdom, but Pei Fei. When Pei You passed away, Pei Tong was the eldest son, and Pei Fei was his responsibility. Without the big umbrella of Pei Mansion, Pei Fei, the second son who relied on his elder brother, could talk about a good marriage?
Without a good relationship, how can their brothers hug each other to keep warm, and how can they have a good future?
Besides, those of Pei You’s so-called same year and colleagues, who have Pei Xuan’s uncle who has a prosperous career, will cross Pei Xuan and invest resources on Pei Tong, who has not yet reached the stage and cannot see the future.
If Pei Tong really has something to do, can’t you find Pei Xuan?
If Pei Xuan helped Pei Tong, this relative would still be there. If Pei Xuan doesn’t help Pei Tong, who would still recognize Pei Tong as a child of the Pei family?
Many people are icing on the cake, but few people give charcoal in the snow!
Why is Pei Tong so short-sighted and agreed to go out?
Gu Chang suspected that Master Yang did the trick.
Why didn’t Gu Xi stop it?
He glared at Gu Xi with a bit of hatred for iron and steel, then yelled “mischief”, and said to the two brothers: “This matter should be discussed again!”
Gu Xi was full of grievances.
She faintly felt that her brother would not agree to split the family, but she was a woman in the house, so why did she stop Pei Tong and Master Yang?
Besides, she thinks it’s okay to split like this.
Her own life will surely get through the better.
Gu Xi pouted and lowered her head.
Gu Chang looked at it and sighed, feeling that he was angering his sister.
How many more people can become Pei Yan’s opponents!
If Pei Yan deliberately wanted to throw Pei Tong out, even if he was there, he might not be able to stop it.
But he still didn’t give up, he didn’t want to just give up like this.
He asked Pei Tong: “Your two uncles are not caregivers. You have to think about some things. It’s hard to get over it.”
Pei Tong couldn’t help hesitating again.
Seeing that the situation is not good, Master Yang hurriedly reminded Pei Tong with a smile: “This is what your grandfather meant. Otherwise, he won’t pass the position of the sect master to your third uncle. You leave, your elders and children are in order, yes. Pei’s family is good too.”
He was reminding Pei You what he had done.
Because of this, Pei Tong was embarrassed to leave like this.
He looked at his two uncles, pondered for a moment, but still did not hold back, said sorry to the two uncles, and pulled Master Yang outside the door, whispering: “If I leave Pei’s house, you Can you give me the letter my dad wrote to you?”
Master Yang immediately became vigilant and said nervously, “What are you going to do? Are you afraid that Pei’s family will break their promise?”
“No!” Pei Tong said with some embarrassment, “I blamed the third uncle. But I don’t want to forget the death of Dad. I think, since I want to leave, I will leave cleanly and stop participating in Pei. Everything about the family is ready. The letter my father wrote to you is regarded as my gift to them. From then on, I no longer owe Pei’s family, and they don’t owe me anymore. Everyone meets again , Just nod.”
What a stupid!
Master Yang resisted, and didn’t say this sentence.
However, young people, who have not experienced anything before, always think that everything in this world is so simple, and that they will know how great they are after suffering.
But let him give the letter to the people of Pei’s family, that is absolutely inevitable.
This is one of his means of self-protection.
He and Pei Tong played Tai Chi: “Don’t worry at this moment, wait until the family property is clearly distinguished.”
Pei Tong didn’t want to lose face anymore.
He misunderstood Pei Yan first, and then took advantage of Pei Xuan’s.
He also wanted to be an upright man, instead of letting people say how much advantage he took to the Pei family.
Pei Tong grabbed Master Yang and said, “Uncle, you should give it to me! Let’s make it clear while my uncle is here. I don’t want to leave Pei’s house because of favor.”
Master Yang frowned almost invisibly and was unwilling to hand over the letter: “You child, why are you so embarrassed. That letter is so important, how can you just send it out like this? Don’t worry, I will keep it. The letter was not written to let the Pei family rob the family and exterminate the clan. What good is it for us? You just believe that the uncle is fine, and I will hand it over to the Pei family at an appropriate opportunity.”
Is it after getting greater benefits?
Pei Tong looked at the familiar face of his uncle, but felt a bitter chill for the first time.
Their family and Pei’s family are in trouble today, isn’t the Yang family the crux of the contradiction?
Doesn’t the uncle have any responsibility?
Perhaps, there is no reliable person in this world.
Even his second uncle must be cautious of his third uncle and won’t help him wholeheartedly.
Pei Tong was very disappointed. He glanced at Master Yang lightly and said, “That’s what you want.”
Even if they left Pei’s house in this room, they would not regard Yang’s head as their head.
If he wants to leave, he is ready to leave completely, no longer interacting with these aristocratic families in Jiangnan.
From now on, they will be a small family in the capital.
Pei Tong seemed to see the dim light in the yard where he grew up in the dark.
So be it!
He took advantage of the family, as he owed the two uncles, wait until he has the ability to pay it back!
Pei Tong straightened his back and walked in, facing Pei Yan and Pei Xuan for the first time, and actively said to his two uncles: “Second uncle, third uncle, let you wait for a long time. I believe you will not lie to me. I didn’t look at the accounts. Just as you said, I moved to the yard where my father lived. I can repair my family tree, settle in Beijing, and bring my mother and younger brother over. I’m afraid my two uncles will help me take care of it. .”
After he finished speaking, he respectfully bowed to Pei Yan and Pei Xuan, as if they were two people who were clamoring for Pei Yan to settle accounts.
Pei Yan and Pei Xuan couldn’t help but glance at each other.
Pei Tong has turned around and talked to Gu Chang: “Uncle, please come over here specially for my business. My uncle is right. I leave Pei’s house and treat Pei’s family better. Just like this. Let’s divide it!”
What’s the point of Gu Chang’s objection?
But in his heart, dissatisfaction with the Yang family was buried.
Two days later, Pei Tong set a date to move, and Gu Chang took the time to come again.
All the things to be taken away from the family have been packed and put away, only to move to the house that Pei You bought back when Ji Shi moved to the house. Gu Xi also changed from the old laziness, standing in front of the steps of the main house with vigor, and personally instructing the maid at home to dig a few peonies in the yard.
Gu Chang couldn’t help but said, “How do you dig up the flowers and trees in the yard? Does the Pei family know?”
“I know!” Gu Xi invited Gu Chang to sit in the room, and said: “Second aunt said, I can take whatever I like and take it with me. These are two relatively rare Mo Ju. If you have money, you may not buy it. Get it. Pei Xiaguang doesn’t like flowers, so he doesn’t grow much in his house, so I might as well take it over!”
These are all trivial matters.
Gu Chang didn’t say much to her, but asked about the production analysis: “Has the money arrived?”
Gu Xi nodded and looked very satisfied: “The two uncles called Pei Tong over early the next morning. In addition to giving him the money, they also gave him a book of accounts. All the real estate was left to the Pei family, saying It’s because we will live in Beijing for a long time, which is not convenient to manage. We changed a farm in nearby Miyun with more than 500 acres. We all thought it was pretty good. We just waited for the mother-in-law to bring the uncle to the capital.”
fair enough!
Gu Chang nodded.
Gu Xi personally brought him a snack and came in, sat next to him, and said: “Pei Tong went to the old house to clean up, and only came back in the evening. Brother, I have dinner here before leaving! I always think Yang The family has bad intentions, and there are some things, you have to talk to him.”
When Gu Chang came over, he also had the same meaning, so he naturally said yes.
It is rare for the two brothers and sisters to take a break for a long time, talking about themselves.
On Yu Tang’s side, A Xing was quietly complaining to Gu Xi: “Isn’t it a girl from a family of four surnames in the south of the Yangtze River? How come our family’s peony flowers are so rare? Can’t I go to the flower farmers to buy them? Take it away. Are you too used to her too?”
Yu Tang smiled and said: “This is not what I promised, but the second wife agreed. Why do I have to take care of the second wife, right?”
A Xing curled her lips and said nothing in front of Yu Tang.
Yu Tang asked her: “Is everything packed for my mother’s family?”
A Xing nodded repeatedly.
Yu Yuan was about to return to Lin’an, and Yu Tang asked him to help bring some things back. A Xing helped prepare the mother’s family members, and Qing Yuan helped prepare them for the mother-in-law’s family members.
A Xing said: “I heard from the concierge that the third master ordered them to prepare the car. At that time, I will send my uncle and young master to Tongzhou to board the ship!”
Compared with the previous life, Axing is more lively and likes to run around, asking about this and that. Therefore, Yu Tang learned a lot about the servants’ affairs in the house.
Hearing what she said, Yu Tang couldn’t help but be moved. When Pei Yan came back in the evening, she served Pei Yan attentively without changing his clothes. She also took the initiative to leaned against his shoulder and asked him softly, “I want to go with you.” Tongzhou!”
Pei Yan didn’t hide her whereabouts at all. He laughed, squeezed her chin, and teased her: “You bought too many things to fit in the car. You can’t take people there.”
“Nonsense!” Yu Tang was dissatisfied, jumped away from Pei Yan, and said, “I asked Pei Wu, he said that a car has been prepared for you.” She said her eyes turned straight, “If it is really not enough to sit. , Then, let’s borrow a carriage from the Yin Mansion? Anyway, Mrs. Yin can’t do anything these days, Master Yin must be with her at home. There must be many carriages in their house.”
Pei Yan smiled and said, “It’s even harder to pay the debt. I just went out for 150,000 taels of silver in the past two days, so we have to spend it tightly.”
Yu Tang immediately took out his private money and smiled triumphantly: “When I came, my father gave me one thousand taels of silver, and my mother-in-law gave me three thousand taels of silver. No need for you to spend. This time I went to Tongzhou. I’m all inclusive for the cost.”
Pei Yan was eager to see Pei Yan’s little appearance with rich wealth and a little bit of cunning in the naughty.
