My Stepmother Is Soft and Charming

Chapter 109 Mrs. Xing

So, he threw away the slight unhappiness just now, raised his hand and distinguished them one by one with Du Jingyi.

Du Jingyi was smart, and his sister-in-law Liu was also very careful.

In addition, she had read the book in advance and remembered it in her heart, so it was not difficult for her to compare people.

It didn't take long for her to recognize most of them.

Then, the two of them focused their attention on the pretty woman sitting next to Mrs. Wei.

"She is Wei Jialian."

Wei Jialian, as her name suggests, is really good-looking.

And today's robe is embroidered with lotus patterns. The style, fabric and pattern are obviously not ordinary items.

It must cost several hundred taels of silver.

In addition, the hairpins in her bun are all inlaid with luxurious gems.

The value is higher than the clothes, not lower.

It seems that the Wei family is not very clean. It is not a big clan that has been around for many years. Where can they get so much money to buy clothes and jewelry for their children?

Seeing this, Du Jingyi smiled.

Like a leopard, it seemed that it had set its sights on some prey again.

Wei Jialian smiled coquettishly and cutely, sitting there like a star surrounded by stars. In contrast, Xue Niang seemed to be a little sad.

The two of them were of similar age, and both were about to reach the age of marriage.

But the flowers and brocades have always been born for the strong.

For Xue Niang, who was a young lady of the Duke's Mansion without a mother's love and a father who might or might not exist, it didn't add much to her appearance.

So when he looked at Wei Jialian, his eyes were full of envy and a little resentment.

Du Jingyi was talking to his sister-in-law, but he didn't forget to take care of Xue Niang's feelings next to him.

Seeing Wei Jialian responding to the ladies and ladies with ease, Du Jingyi also understood Xue Niang's knot.

So he smiled and comforted her.

"I remember the general told me that the end of February next year will be your coming-of-age day. Don't worry, with Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister-in-law here, you won't be wronged."

Xue Niang was convinced by Du Jingyi's words.

After all, her brother had told them that night, so after she knew how Sixth Sister-in-law cleaned up the fifth room, she naturally liked her more.

In addition, her temper was better than Ping'er, so she was not so twisted.

After hearing this, she was relieved.

"Sixth Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm not a person who is sad about the passing of time. I feel a little uncomfortable, but I can solve it myself."

"That's good."

As the few people were talking in a low voice, suddenly someone came in front of them.

The man looked about the same age as Mrs. Wei, but his clothes and jewelry were much more luxurious.

And if you look closely, they are all the most fashionable materials and styles in Jiangnan now.

To be able to dress so decently, you can tell at a glance that they must be from a very wealthy family.

Sure enough, before Du Jingyi opened his mouth, he heard Xue Niang shout excitedly.

"Aunt, you're here."

Aunt?

Du Jingyi quickly recalled the contents of the book in his mind and soon made the connection.

If nothing unexpected happened, the person in front of him should be a relative of the Gu family.

She and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Gu, should be cousins, so Xue Niang called her aunt.

Mrs. Xing, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xing family, the river transport envoy.

So she and her eldest sister-in-law Liu bowed to Mrs. Xing and said.

"Hello, aunt."

"Okay, everyone get up. We are a family. There is no need to be bound by these etiquettes."

When the eldest sister-in-law Liu saw Mrs. Xing, there was a little more sincere joy between her eyebrows.

After all, this was the first person who took the initiative to greet them today.

Since the death of her mother-in-law and the sacrifice of the Gu family, few people have paid attention to their lineage.

But Mrs. Xing is different. Every once in a while, she would send people from Jinling City to send some things.

Therefore, the eldest sister-in-law Liu respected and appreciated her very much.

Mrs. Xing first looked around at her elder sister-in-law Liu and Xue Niang. Seeing that they both looked good, she felt relieved.

Then she looked at Du Jingyi up and down, with an expression of admiration in her eyes.

"She is a beautiful lady, and she looks healthy."

Du Jingyi showed her openly, but she didn't expect to come to such a conclusion.

She was a little amused.

But when she thought about the three young ladies before her, she suddenly understood why she said that.

So, she didn't reply, but just smiled faintly.

Let her look at her.

This calmness made Mrs. Xing very happy. Such a good child and their Shao Yu were a match made in heaven.

Let's not talk about the past.

Mrs. Xing never had a good face for Mrs. Wei, but this matchmaking seemed to be done well.

Therefore, she smiled and said to Du Jingyi.

"I heard from Madam Dou that the General's Mansion is almost finished with renovations. When will we move?"

"On the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, the General and I have discussed this matter. We will move there and have Laba porridge together."

"It's a good day. Please send me a message when the time comes. I only brought Zhao'er with me this time. It will be lonely for the two of us to celebrate the festival. It's better to join the fun at your place."

Hearing this, Xue Niang immediately expressed her happiness.

"Brother Zhao is back too?"

"Yes, that brat! If I hadn't threatened him with conditions, I'm afraid he wouldn't be willing to come back with me. He said every day that he was used to living in Jinling City and didn't like the climate in the north."

The River Transport Office was located in Jinling City.

So the Xing family also has its roots in Jinling City, and is a family of equal status to the Gu family.

The family also has many children and is prosperous.

Sister-in-law Liu couldn't help laughing and asked.

"I wonder what method did aunt use to subdue cousin Zhao? Make him follow me obediently?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Xing laughed even more proudly.

"In fact, there was no method. I just told him that Shao Yu was back, and he naturally followed me north."

After saying this, everyone laughed.

After hearing this, Du Jingyi probably understood a little.

It seems that this cousin Zhao still has admiration for her husband.

Sister-in-law Liu saw that she was silent and thought she didn't understand, so she explained.

"My cousin Zhao once trained in the army with my grandfather in Cezhou for several years, so he has a good relationship with our Liu Lang."

"I see, then aunt and cousin Zhao, please wait a little longer. I will personally send you an invitation and invite you to a small gathering."

Anyway, there are many courtyards in the general's mansion, so Du Jingyi reserved three courtyards for guests at that time, and they were all repaired very comfortably.

Therefore, even if the two of them want to stay for a while, it doesn't matter.

Seeing that she was measured in her actions, Mrs. Xing was also very pleased.

She had seen all kinds of women in the backyard, so her eyes were still very sharp.

Just thinking of her cousin who died young, she felt a little bit sorry.
