Chapter 12: Mistaken Eyes
After all, Shang Yukuan couldn't bear it.
Therefore, I looked at several uncles and aunts anxiously, and immediately said with relief.
"Rokuro just said a quick word, uncles and aunts, don't be sad."
It's a pity that it's just such a light sentence.
How can these people who have been relying on their elders for many years stop?
It has been three years since Du Jingyi came here, and this is the first time he has seen such a big show.
I thought that those careless relatives in my own family were annoying enough.
I didn't expect that the Duke's Mansion in the Gaomen Courtyard would be even worse.
Interesting and interesting.
There was a look of watching a show in his eyes, but it hadn't been revealed yet.
He was slapped in the head and scolded by the woman on the side.
"Sixth brother and sister are really good at being wives. My husband contradicted his elders and made everyone angry. I didn't see you to persuade me. Why are you still standing watching the show? You don't even want to give me a helping hand."
The woman who spoke was a square-faced and unattractive woman, the eldest daughter-in-law of the third wife.
In terms of ranking, it is Guan, Shang Erlang's daughter-in-law.
She has been married for several years and has given birth to three fat grandchildren.
Therefore, he is also a person who can speak well in Sanfangyiline.
Her natal family is also a businessman, but they are not as rich as the Du family.
She married into the palace a few years ago because of its reputation.
But in recent years, the dowry brought has either filled the hole in the family, or paid off the husband's gambling debts.
Therefore, there is not much left.
Only then did he set his sights on the thousand taels of gold bestowed by the emperor.
Unexpectedly, when the grandparents came forward, they were defeated in the hands of Shang Ji.
Naturally, she wanted to find an opportunity to get back her face and dignity.
This is one of them.
There is another two.
If it comes to this mansion, the one she hates the most is Du Jingyi.
They are obviously the daughters of merchants, so why can she only marry an ordinary Baiding Shang Erlang?
I have to clean up his mess every day.
But Du Jingyi can marry the young master of the Duke's mansion.
Now he has become a hussar general with great military exploits.
His status became more and more noble.
Therefore, from the day Du Jingyi entered the door, she was ridiculed a lot.
When he jumped out at this time, he naturally wanted to embarrass Du Jingyi.
Unfortunately, she picked the wrong person.
Du Jingyi smiled, but his eyes were cold.
He opened his mouth and shot back.
"Second sister-in-law is joking, I am not blessed. When I married into the Duke's palace, my serious grandparents and mother-in-law passed away. I thought that the only elders I had to serve were my father-in-law, but I never thought that there would be such a big family. I’m waiting, but Second Sister-in-law, you, my direct grandson-in-law, don’t help me, but you put the blame on me, a person who is just a few houses away, so you are obviously a well-educated person.”
Du Jingyi rarely paid attention to these people in the past because he felt it was unnecessary.
But today, in front of Shang Ji, the people present were trying to step on her with one move after another.
The clay figurine still has a temper.
What's more, Du Jingyi is decisive in the business field.
The Guan family blushed with one sentence, but she didn't know how to answer.
As soon as she said this, everyone's expressions changed.
Mrs. Wei squinted her eyes and suddenly felt that she had underestimated this Liulang's wife in the past.
Apparently, he is a eloquent person.
Sister-in-law Liu stared at Du Jingyi's back and frowned slightly.
There was something sophisticated in his eyes.
They have lived together in Dongyuan for three years, and she has interacted with Du Jingyi several times.
But every time I looked for her, she was either taking a lunch break or making food.
He looked happy and smiling.
I thought she had a soft temper, but I didn't expect that she actually had a thorn.
I actually took a wrong look.
When Du Jingyi's real husband, Shang Ji, saw this, his eyes felt a little more happy.
He felt even better about the match that Mrs. Wei had arranged for him.
It's just that this kind of admiration passed by in a flash, and when he looked back, his eyes were full of disdain.
This large group of relatives in the yard who were at loggerheads with him, if he had his past temper, he would probably be punished with a big stick.
But now, he has other plans.
Therefore, I don’t want to have any more entanglements with them on this matter.
Instead, he turned around and walked in front of his sister-in-law Liu and others, with an unprecedentedly respectful attitude.
He cupped his fists and bowed in salute before saying.
"Sister-in-law, please take Ping'er and Xue Niang back to Xitang Courtyard first. My wife and I will go to the ancestral hall to lay incense sticks for my mother and eldest brother, and then we will go back."
He said it simply, but his meaning was very clear.
In the whole courtyard, the only ones who could get his care were these three people.
As for other relatives, he didn't care whether they wanted to hang themselves, throw themselves into a well, or hit a pillar.
Such an attitude made the two crying old men and women even more angry and unable to breathe.
I almost stuck it out.
Sister-in-law Liu took a deep look at Shang Ji.
He took a deep breath and nodded.
"good."
Then he bowed in the direction of Shang Guogong and left with his son and sister-in-law.
Never looked back.
Seeing this, Shang Ji walked to Du Jingyi again.
He looked at the "relatives" and "elders" in the area, and everyone immediately stopped breathing.
I wondered if there was anything else I wanted to say to them.
Unexpectedly, Shang Ji raised his head and glanced at his father Shang Guogong.
Then, he said something indifferently.
"Father, my wife and I have to go to the ancestral hall to offer tea to my mother, so we won't stay any longer."
Du Jingyi, who was standing next to him, didn't want to be involved in these people and things, so he bowed and said.
"My daughter-in-law, take your leave."
After saying this, they also left the main courtyard with steady steps.
Seeing the couple flicking their sleeves and walking away.
The old people who were still crying behind them were completely embarrassed.
The crying was still hanging in their mouths, but it was useless.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wei could only sigh and say.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. The family is loose and the rules are not set. Uncles, aunts and wives, get up quickly. Dirty clothes are a small matter, but hurting your body is troublesome."
The hypocritical look made the second son Shang Qilang standing next to him a little unprepared.
Without saying anything, he turned around and left.
In the yard.
I saw Mrs. Wei stepped forward and personally helped the third old lady up.
Then she helped the fifth old lady.
Shang Yukuan, who was standing by, also helped the third and fifth old masters up.
They were unwilling to give up until they got their reward.
Especially the fifth old master, who cursed.
"Look at him, he is such a scoundrel, he wants to kill everyone around him, this Du family is the fourth one, I'll wait and see how long this one can live!"
He was originally a gangster in the village.
Now he is wearing brocade clothes and drinking fine wine, but he can't stop his domineering and tyrannical look.
So he cursed very badly.
After all, he is his son, Shang Yukuan was a little unhappy when he heard this.
