My Stepmother Is Soft and Charming

Chapter 159: Stumble

Du Jingyi felt that this cousin was really not afraid of death. He could live without worries about food and clothing just by guarding his own one-third of an acre of land.

You still have to do this!

Aren't you afraid that these young men will kill him when he loses all his money?

"How much did they pay for the third room?"

"I don't know the exact amount, but I guess it's about five hundred taels. That's the lowest level."

Five hundred taels, considering Sanfang's current situation, if he could use five hundred taels to do business, I'm afraid it would be a drain on his family's wealth.

All of a sudden, his face didn't look so good, and he went from being cheerful just now to becoming a little silent.

It's not that Du Jingyi feels bad that the third wife will be deceived, but that they feel that they are in trouble this time because they are so sick that they seek medical treatment.

Du Jingyi looked down upon the others. Shang Sanlang and Sanlang's wife were still somewhat sober, and they were the only two barely good bamboo shoots among the evil bamboos.

So Du Jingyi had to think about whether to remind them.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a servant from the Du family come to report.

"Madam, everything is ready, but do you want to eat now?"

Mrs. Du looked up at the sky outside. It was already early afternoon, and she couldn't help but smile and said.

"It goes by so fast. It's almost noon. Please send someone to invite the master and the others, as well as my mother-in-law, to have a meal first. For the meal at the eldest lady's place, I'll make some light porridge and send it over first."

"Yes, ma'am."

After the servants left, Du Jingyi spoke.

"Don't worry, mother, I will consider this matter."

"Okay, you can cut yourself off."

Today is a good day, and the affairs of the third room will not affect everyone, especially after gathering in the flower hall, everyone is smiling.

The second elder of the He family was not reserved and said with a smile while looking at the dishes on the table.

"The cooking skills of the Du family are extraordinary. We have only been here a few days, and everyone is already full. It just so happens that they can't stop. When we return to Pingzhou, I'm afraid we will need to change to a more spacious carriage and horse. Driving."

As soon as Uncle He spoke, everyone started laughing.

Mr. Du also replied jokingly.

"Don't worry, father-in-law, the family is rich with this spacious carriage and horse."

After saying that, he touched his round belly and laughed out loud.

The meaning was very clear, and the two of them picked up the wine at hand and took a sip.

Then, He Shilin also raised his glass and said to everyone present.

"Now that the baby has been born and Xiang Niang is all well, I am extremely grateful in my heart. My father-in-law and mother-in-law have taken such pains to take care of me, and my father and mother have come all the way in the wind and snow. I have nothing to repay. I will treat Xiang Niang well in the future, and I will do the same." It’s the one who raises his children to be fat and white.”

His words were simple and sincere, but Du Jingyi made a joke instead.

"It's not okay to be just fat and white. You must be like my brother-in-law, with a bright future."

After hearing this, the two elders of the He family also laughed so hard that they couldn't even see their eyes.

Now that they have a grandson, they will set off back to Pingzhou when the matter with their son Chunwei is over.

After studying hard for so many years, all I wanted was to be on the list, so I felt happy when I heard Du Jingyi say this.

"With my second sister's good words, I will definitely work hard!"

The mood is comfortable and the spring breeze is triumphant, which is what He Shilin is today.

Shang Ji drank with him and didn't say much.

He didn't know much about the path of a civil servant, but if this brother-in-law could really enter the court and become an official based on his ability, then he would not be stingy in helping him.

The whole family had lunch peacefully and sat for a while, but Du Jingxiang still didn't wake up.

Mrs. Du glanced at the wind and snow outside that had stopped a little, and said quickly.

"Go back first and come back in a few days. It's time for your sister to have a good rest, and so do you. It's snowy and windy like this, so don't just think about coming over. If anything happens, we'll talk about it after the new year."

Du Jingyi also knew that his mother meant well, so he nodded and replied.

"Okay, then my daughter will go back first. If there is anything else, just send Li Zhu over."

Mrs. Du and Master Du both looked at Du Jingyi and his wife with relief, and then accompanied them to the gate.

It wasn't until the couple got into the carriage that they turned around and went back.

The sky is bright and cloudy, and the wind and snow are suspended.

When I came here, there were no people on the street, but now there are people sweeping the streets.

These days, there is constant wind and snow in Sui'an City.

Sometimes, just after a nap, the heavy snow can accumulate up to my calves, so people need to clean it up every day.

The broom made of bamboo branches hit the bluestone floor, and you got used to it after hearing it.

While the carriage was driving, Shang Ji was afraid that the wine he had just drunk would smell to Du Jingyi, so he sat a little further away.

It was Du Jingyi who told the story about the third room.

"That's what happened. Originally, I didn't want to get involved, but no matter how unhappy I am, Du Jingxian is also a member of the Du family. If the third wife loses all her money because of him, I'm afraid that the incident will cause more trouble in the future."

Shang Ji listened carefully, but his face was calm.

After a while he said.

"I know, I'll take care of this, don't worry."

"Um."

Now that the words have been spoken, it is up to the husband whether or not he wants to mention the third wife.

Since returning to the General's Mansion, Du Jingyi has been living like a god again.

The nephew's name was finally decided on the seventh day after he landed.

After receiving the news from home, Du Jingyi smiled and muttered a few words.

"He Qianyun, He Qianyun, this name is really nice."

Looking back at the scene of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, the clouds are flat across the sky.

It looks simple, but when you think about it carefully, it feels like it is boundless.

Du Jingyi was also very satisfied with the name, and then asked.

"What's your nickname? Yun Ge'er?"

Li Zhu smiled and answered.

"The young lady is really smart, that's what the master meant."

Yingtao couldn't help but snickering, and then teased her.

"Our Li Zhu has really grown up and has learned to flatter."

The full name is He Qianyun, and the nickname is Yun Ge'er. Isn't this quite normal?

How come it becomes the young lady's cleverness when it comes out of Li Zhu's mouth.

Li Zhu didn't feel embarrassed at all, and he chuckled and counterattacked.

"It's all thanks to sister Cherry's good teaching!"

"You little bastard! I don't know where you learned this from. You've become so slick in just a few days?"

Cherry waved her fist, which made Du Jingyi laugh.

Li Zhu muttered something.

"Sister also said that if I didn't know how to relieve myself, I would have been suffocated to death by Mr. Liu. She taught me to practice for two hours every day and not to say more than ten sentences."

After saying that, she deliberately crossed her index fingers together to make a gesture.
