Chapter 107 The Wei Family

In terms of sarcasm, Du Jingyi's words made Silang's wife unable to retort.

On the one hand, he mocked the crowded Xiyuan, and on the other hand, he hinted that they were only worthy of using the remaining courtyard.

If you think about it carefully, you can also scold Madam Wei.

Didn't she just pick up the position of the Duke's wife left by Madam Gu?

She treasured it very much.

The three grandparents and grandchildren in Xiyuan stared at Du Jingyi, and their faces were not very good.

In the past, Madam Wei would have more fake expressions to cover herself up, but since the incident of the fifth room, she knew that it was useless even if she tried to cover up.

She simply showed her true face and snorted at Du Jingyi.

"Sixth Lang's wife, don't talk so much if you are young. After all, Silang's wife entered the door before you and gave birth to children in our Duke's Mansion. It's not appropriate for you to embarrass her with your words."

Du Jingyi put down the teacup in his hand and replied.

"Oh, look, I'm overstepping my bounds. I thought that Madam Wei would not blame Fourth Sister-in-law for talking to Big Sister-in-law like that, and thought that we could joke around."

Turning around to look at Silang's wife, he said with some provocation in his eyes.

"Since it's my fault, I'll apologize to Fourth Sister-in-law, but Big Sister-in-law... Shouldn't Fourth Sister-in-law say something?"

Silang's wife's anger was suppressed tightly, and when she looked at Du Jingyi, she wanted to slap her twice.

But her husband was a great general of the dynasty, and she was not as good as him in terms of status.

Therefore, no matter how angry she was, she had to endure it.

So she stood up and reluctantly gave in to Big Sister-in-law Liu.

"I was quick-witted and made Big Sister-in-law unhappy. It's my fault. Please don't blame me."

Seeing this, Xue Niang and Big Sister-in-law Liu both let out a breath of anger.

For so many years, they have been staying in Dongyuan, and they can't be talked to or beaten.

I was very depressed every day.

Today, with the help of Du Jingyi, I felt relieved.

Therefore, the eyes of the two of them looking at her were full of gratitude and joy.

Mrs. Wei naturally saw it, and snorted in her heart.

Isn't it just relying on the status of her husband that she is showing off here?

Wait and see, someone will come to clean up later.

Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth rose, and the unhappiness in her heart disappeared.

The back house has its own back house, and the front hall has its own lively front hall.

Today, the Duke's Mansion is more crowded than ever before, and everyone who comes is a famous family in the court.

The men led the guests to the front hall, and the women sent them to the flower hall.

The servants in the mansion served them attentively, and the guests were also smiling.

Although Shang Guogong was soft-faced, he could still handle such occasions. In addition, he had Silang and Qilang by his side, so he could get along with both sides.

On the other hand, Shang Ji didn't like to do these empty tricks.

If it wasn't for Ping'er to start a new life with more confidence and courage, he wouldn't care whether he came to the front hall or not.

But people are like this, they admire the strong and leave.

Even though Shang Ji had the aura of "keep away from strangers", there were still many people who came to join him.

Soon, he was surrounded by people.

There were civil officials and military generals.

They were either nodding acquaintances or had heard of each other's names.

They were not very familiar with each other, but Shang Ji would bring Shang Zhiping to meet each person when he greeted him.

At first he was very shy, but gradually he could speak to people with courtesy after seeing more of them.

Most of them were accompanied by their children and grandchildren.

Since they came to meet Shang Ji, and he saw that he cherished his nephew so much.

The children and grandchildren of those ministers would not look down on Shang Zhiping.

At least on the surface.

Such a harmonious scene made Shang Zhihe, who was not far away, a little indignant.

Shang Qilang saw that his nephew was unhappy, and he comforted him.

"He'er, don't always think about comparing with others, you already have a lot."

"Uncle Qi, but I want the attention of everyone, but I don't have it at this moment."

He is not very old, but his eyes are full of desire for power. Who did he inherit this temperament from?

Shang Qilang felt that his fourth brother did not have such ambitions, and his fourth sister-in-law did not have them either.

But he soon figured out who he inherited from?

"Great-grandfather! Grandfather! Uncle! Here!"

Shang Zhihe greeted the Wei family who had just entered the door in the distance.

The three old and young people of the Wei family looked over, and when they saw Shang Qilang and Shang Zhihe, they all smiled.

Then Shang Zhihe pulled Shang Qilang to greet them.

"My grandson greets my grandfather, uncle, and cousin."

"My son greets my great-grandfather, grandfather, and uncle."

"All right, you are all good children, no need to be polite."

The speaker is Wei Taiwei, who is now over 70 years old, but looks very energetic.

His eyes are bright and his face is radiant.

His gray hair is neatly tied, and even his back has no signs of bending.

Standing on his left and right are his son Wei Mingxian and grandson Wei Jiaheng.

The father and son are very similar, they just look different in age, of course Wei Mingxian is stronger than his son.

After all, he is not called the deputy commander for nothing, he must have some real skills.

Wei Jiaheng seemed a bit of a dandy, and he was not close to Shang Qilang, but he had a lot to say to his nephew Shang Zhihe.

So when he came, Shang Zhihe came over.

"Uncle, uncle."

He called him so affectionately that people who didn't know him would think he was not his uncle but his father.

"Look, what fun things did I bring you?"

As Wei Jiaheng spoke, he took out a slingshot, which was made of fine mahogany and was specially painted and inlaid with jewels.

The rubber band of the slingshot was made of tiger tendons, which was the most strenuous.

With a little effort, you can hit stones or marbles far away.

Therefore, although it looks small, it is actually very valuable.

When Shang Zhihe saw this thing, his eyes lit up.

It was like he had got a handy weapon, and he was in a hurry to practice.

"Uncle, take me to try. There is a forest over there with birds. Let's try to shoot a few."

"Okay, lead the way."

Shang Qilang felt that this was inappropriate, so he advised.

"Today is my father's birthday party. It's not easy to shed blood. He'er, don't make trouble."

Shang Zhihe didn't like this uncle at all. He always disturbed his interest.

So he said with a slightly stern face.

"Uncle Qi, don't worry. I know the limit. It's just a practice. It won't hurt my life."

After saying that, he didn't care about the people present and took his uncle Wei Jiaheng away.

Wei Taiwei looked at his grandson and great-grandson and couldn't help but smile and said.
