Chapter 64: My Mother’s Family

When their eyes met, some obscure lust appeared in his eyes.

His Adam's apple moved slightly, and Du Jingyi seemed to understand.

He immediately raised his voice to the outside.

"Cherry, come in and serve, the general and I are going to get up and wash."

"Yes."

Her voice suppressed Shang Ji's thoughts that had just risen.

Shang Ji lowered his voice and deliberately leaned close to Du Jingyi's ear to speak.

"Madam, are you doing this on purpose?"

When the voice came out, some hot air was exhaled, making Du Jingyi's cheeks slightly red.

"General, get up quickly, aren't you going to accompany me back to my parents' home?"

After saying this, Shang Ji also smiled foolishly.

"If I had known earlier, I would have said tomorrow."

God knows that since the last marriage consummation, the two have not been close again.

Finally got a few days of vacation, but he was thinking hard to come back to spend his leisure time with his wife and children.

Who knew that when he came back last night, his wife was already sleeping soundly.

He couldn't do it again.

He wanted to be a "lecher" when he got up early this morning, but he was rejected seriously.

Shang Ji had no choice but to admit defeat.

There were sounds outside the door.

He knew that several maids were coming to fetch water, so the two of them got up without delay.

After a simple wash, Lizhu dressed Du Jingyi, while Yingtao picked out several sets of clothes from the cabinet and placed them in front of Shang Ji.

She said respectfully.

"General, this is the clothes that the young lady arranged for you. Do you want to try it on? If there is anything wrong, send it to Lu Ju for modification."

Shang Ji raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this.

He remembered that it was only a few days after measuring the clothes, how could it be so fast.

He looked back at Du Jingyi and said in a brisk tone.

"Show it to the young lady. I'll wear whatever she chooses."

It was just an ordinary sentence, but it made the two maids happy.

They felt that the general and their young lady were really in love now, and they were happy to wear clothes that matched each other.

Cherry walked quickly to Du Jingyi and said.

"What does the young lady want to wear today? The general said that he will wear whatever you choose. I ask the young lady to tell me clearly."

This serious attitude made Du Jingyi a little uncomfortable.

But thinking that because her husband Shang Ji was there, she couldn't always laugh with the maids, so she took a quick look and gave instructions.

"The general should wear the round-necked robe with ink-colored landscapes, and then you can get me the flowing fairy skirt with white background embroidered with pink and green patterns."

"Yes, I know."

Cherry then brought the round-necked robe to Shang Ji.

Shang Ji didn't need help from others to change his clothes, so he stood behind the screen and changed by himself.

When Yingtao brought the Liuxian skirt that Du Jingyi wanted, he was already dressed.

The ink-colored landscape painting was completed in one go. The fabric felt soft and delicate, but it was straight when worn, which made his chest look broad and majestic.

His long hair was not tied up yet, but it was draped behind him, which showed a difference from the usual resolute general.

I have to say that Lu Ju's craftsmanship is really good.

This dress is just right, not a little more or less.

Shang Ji lowered his head and raised his hands to look around. He knew without guessing that the fabric must be expensive.

After all, the things in this room, to be precise, are his wife's things, so there is no cheap stuff.

So he couldn't help but laugh secretly, and turned around to say something.

Then he saw that Du Jingyi was dressed up.

The flowing fairy skirt was matched with a cloud bun, and two gilded hollow butterfly flower vase hairpins were pinned on her head, which was very beautiful.

The red lips and white teeth were slightly hooked, and the smile made Shang Ji's heart skip a beat.

If there were no two "eye-catching" maids in front of him, he would have wanted to have a good time with his wife,

but thinking that he had to go out next, he could only restrain that desire.

So he coughed twice and told Yingtao.

"Send breakfast over, and tell housekeeper He that the carriage can be prepared."

"Yes."

The couple ate seven-tenths full with the delicious breakfast, and then went out of the East Garden and went straight to the Du family.

Walking on the street early in the morning, the shouting continued.

The fragrance of wontons on the stalls penetrated Du Jingyi's nose. Although it was just breakfast, the fragrance was always fascinating.

Shang Ji saw his wife's expression from the side, so he lifted the curtain and took a look.

"Liu Ji Wonton" was written on a cloth banner, hanging high.

The old couple who set up the stall to sell wontons looked skillful and kind.

So she likes to eat this?

When you are thinking about someone, you naturally keep her preferences in mind.

But the occasion is not right.

Otherwise, he could accompany his wife to have a small bowl and taste how it tastes?

Soon, the carriage took Shang Ji and Du Jingyi away from this busy street.

Not long after, the carriage stopped at the door of the Du family.

The news that the two were coming back was delivered to the Du family early.

Therefore, when the two of them arrived, the Du couple and the Du Jingxiang couple also stood at the door, all happily welcoming their arrival.

This meeting was different from the last time.

She escaped from the sadness of separation and felt the joy of reunion.

"Dad, Mom, sister, brother-in-law... why did you come out?"

"It's to welcome you two."

Mr. Du said with a smile.

He was born with a smiling face, and now because his eldest daughter came home to live permanently, his face has added several more smile lines.

He looks even more kind and naive.

Du Jingyi didn't know why, but she wanted to act like a spoiled child when she saw the people at home.

She didn't care that her husband was standing next to her, but immediately threw away her seriousness.

She took two quick steps and threw herself into the arms of Mr. Du and Mrs. Du, saying that she missed them repeatedly.

Shang Ji followed the rules, clasped his fists and bowed slightly and said.

"My son-in-law greets my father-in-law and my mother-in-law."

Then he nodded to Du Jingxiang and his wife.

Then Du Jingyi called out, "Sister, brother-in-law."

Du Jingxiang and He Shilin were not worthy of Shang Ji's greeting, so they quickly returned the greeting and said.

"Brother-in-law, you're welcome."

Mrs. Du was also very happy. Now she liked her second uncle Shang Ji more and more.

Not to mention anything else, just in the short time since he came back, he brought his daughter home twice, which was enough for Mrs. Du to attach importance to him.

Otherwise, according to the rules of their noble families, if their daughter went to her parents' home so diligently, it would be strange if she didn't say anything.
