My Stepmother Is Soft and Charming

Chapter 46 Sister-in-Law’s Pity

In Xitang Courtyard, Du Jingyi took everyone back to the main room.

As soon as I walked in, I saw my sister-in-law Liu and my eighth sister Xue Niang, both of whom had worried looks on their faces.

Seeing Du Jingyi coming back, he immediately greeted him.

Xue Niang was quick to speak and asked anxiously when she came up.

"Sixth sister-in-law, are you okay? I heard that the people from Yingjuan Courtyard are looking for trouble. Have you been bullied by them?"

"Brother and sister, are you okay?"

Sister-in-law Liu was also talking at the same time, and she also had worries in her eyes.

Over the years, the two of them know how rogue the people in Wufang are.

The third bedroom is mean and the fifth bedroom is hateful. Neither of them are easy to get along with.

And today, he will come looking for trouble early in the morning, and it will definitely not be a trivial matter.

Therefore, when they learned the news, they hurried to Xitang Courtyard.

Sister-in-law Liu originally planned to show up with Du Jingyi, but after arriving here, she realized that she had brought someone there a long time ago.

There was no choice but to wait for news in Xitang Courtyard.

But even though she was waiting for any news, she became anxious and immediately sent someone to send a message to Shang Ji.

But now that everyone is back, Dongyuan is still bullied badly, which is a grievance.

Seeing the two of them reacting like this, Du Jingyi felt warm in his heart.

She didn't have much interaction with them in the past, and Dongyuan has always been supported by her sister-in-law Liu, so she was happy to live a leisurely life behind closed doors.

But things are different now.

Not to mention that they were going to move to the General's Mansion that day, this matter was originally caused by the dispute between the couple, so naturally it was up to her to resolve it herself.

So, he smiled and said comfortingly.

"Sister-in-law and eighth sister, don't worry. I've sent him away alive. Just wait and see, no one from the fifth room will come to make trouble again."

When she said this, her tone was very determined.

There was also some inexplicable calculation flashing in his eyes.

This person always has to pay some price for his greed.

Otherwise, wouldn't there always be results like "good people are bullied by others" and "evil people will not be punished"?

Thinking of this, I smiled even more happily.

Sister-in-law Liu didn't know why, but she always felt that there was something scary in her smile.

So, he said with a slight frown.

"What method did the siblings use?"

At this time, Aunt Dou came forward quite anxiously and said to Du Jingyi and Madam Liu, who were both blessed.

"Hey, the young lady sent them a hundred taels of silver, and the old slave is afraid that there will be no peace in the future."

"What?"

Sister-in-law Mrs. Liu exclaimed, "One hundred taels of silver, it's not much, it's not much."

But she used to hold on tightly to prevent people from three or five bedrooms from getting involved.

But now, Du Jingyi just let it slip.

Mrs. Liu naturally knew that her dowry was expensive, and she could tell just from the good things in this room.

But these people are not the type to live peacefully with money. They are afraid of constant troubles in the future.

Sister-in-law Liu looked at Du Jingyi and hesitated to speak.

There was also worry and anger in his eyes.

But at the moment, she was blaming herself more, and she was also sincerely worried about Dongyuan's future.

So he spoke.

"It's because I came late and didn't tell you clearly about their family's affairs, so that's why... Aunt Dou, if people from Beiyuan come over in the future, you'd better send someone to summon me. Don't let them bother my brothers and sisters again. !”

With one sentence, Grandma Dou's face suddenly turned bad.

She knew that it was her opening just now that made the eldest young lady say such words.

Suddenly I felt a little ashamed of Du Jingyi.

I was afraid that Du Jingyi would be "slapped in the face" just after taking charge of the family, which would damage her dignity in the future.

So I looked over worriedly.

But Du Jingyi is not a person who cannot understand Haolai's words.

If you were an ordinary person, you would probably think that your sister-in-law, Mrs. Liu, was trying to seize power.

But she knew that this sister-in-law was the most disciplined.

The second day after her husband Shang Ji came back, she told Butler He and Aunt Dou that in the future, all matters of Dongyuan should be handed over to Du Jingyi.

After all, it will be the couple who will be in charge of the family in the future.

From then on, he lived quietly in Fuqiu Courtyard without any deliberate attempts to make things difficult.

It's just that everyone has become accustomed to this, and it really can't be changed in an instant.

Over the years, she has always felt that the people in Dongyuan have not grown up and are still little babies who need her to protect them.

That's why he rushes to Xitang Courtyard whenever something goes wrong and takes everything on his own shoulders.

Seeing this, Du Jingyi understood in his heart, and the eighth sister Xue Niang also understood, and her eyes were rosy.

I just suppressed my emotions and didn't let the tears flow out.

The entire room was filled with misery, thinking about how to deal with the situation next.

But among them, Du Jingyi and her maids Yingying and Lizhu were not included.

Especially cherries.

The master-servant relationship between her and Du Jingyi could not be deeper.

Therefore, one glance at Du Jingyi can tell what Du Jingyi wants to do, and she will naturally help him.

Therefore, seeing this situation arise, she took a step forward and wanted to explain.

But Du Jingyi shook his head in the dark.

Some things are too early to say now.

Once everything is settled, it will not be too late to reveal it.

Seeing that his young lady's attitude was so firm, Cherry didn't insist anymore.

"You must be tired after all the trouble this early in the morning. I'll take Xue Niang back first. You should have a good rest, okay?"

Du Jingyi nodded and replied with a smile.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I know how to take care of myself."

Hearing her words, the eldest sister-in-law Liu didn't say much.

They have lived under the same roof for three years, and she never treats herself badly.

The eldest sister-in-law Liu knew this in her heart.

So, she got up and left with Xue Niang.

After they left, Madam Dou came forward and suddenly knelt down and said with great self-blame.

"Madam, it was me who overstepped the boundaries. I didn't control my mouth when I saw the eldest young lady. Please punish me."

Her attitude was respectful, but Du Jingyi didn't answer her immediately.

In theory, she should have explained this to the eldest sister-in-law herself.

But it was obvious that Madam Dou's sudden interruption made the whole thing go in another direction.

She originally intended to tell him about her plan, but no one gave her the chance.

To be honest, it was for the sake of Dongyuan and Du Jingyi.

But it was embarrassing for Du Jingyi.

In this noble family, the most taboo thing is that the old servants bully the master.

In the past, Dou Ma had always kept this rule in mind, but today, for some reason, she suddenly said something hastily.

Therefore, she still can't recover from it.

Du Jingyi's mind is like a mirror.

In the end, it's because she doesn't trust her enough to handle this matter.
