My Stepmother Is Soft and Charming

Chapter 88 Two-Faced Man (Monthly Ticket Plus)

At this moment, the Fifth House actually didn't know that the Third House also had the idea to make efforts on this, but the people in the Third House had already regarded the Fifth House as an imaginary enemy.

By the way, they also hated Mrs. Wei, who "gave advice".

She herself lived a comfortable life, but she had to stretch her hands so far to take care of the Fifth House's affairs, which was simply infuriating.

Seeing this, Erlang's wife stepped forward and said to Shang Liuniang.

"Good sister, listen to your sister-in-law's advice. Your future can be bright only if your mother's family is strong. If the Fourth Lady can enter the Prince's Mansion, you can get more face in the Jia family, and our Third House can also be proud of it. Isn't this a great thing?"

"Why should a young sister of the Jia family take such a risk? Don't you think so?"

Hearing her words, Shang Liuniang also pretended to sigh and said.

"Second sister-in-law is right. Yesterday, the girl from the Jia family came to me and cried that she didn't want to marry. I wanted to comfort her but I couldn't."

As soon as these words came out, Erlang's wife found an opening and said immediately.

"Look, if our fourth sister goes, it will be good for you and us, and it will be good for the girls from the Jia family. We are all family members. Can you ask your fourth sister for help in the future? Will she refuse you?"

"Wouldn't it be a better way for the Jia family to marry other famous families with their girls?"

Shang Liuniang seemed to be thinking about what Erlang's wife said, and the third old master and the third old lady were also staring at her actions.

As if they were afraid that she would not agree, they pretended to "persuade" her a few more times.

However, Shang Liuniang said in one go.

"Second sister-in-law, what you said makes sense. How about this? I'll go back and negotiate. You just wait for my news. If we can get into the palace through the Jia family, we can rely on it in the future."

"Okay, Liu Niang is still sensible. What will happen if this family doesn't have you?"

The third old lady liked Shang Liu Niang very much. Now she is naturally even happier to see her helping her family like this.

The most important thing is to get this done quickly to avoid more trouble.

Shang Liu Niang never comes empty-handed when she comes.

So she said to the maid Ruyan.

"Take out the banknotes. Since the fourth sister is going to enter the palace, we must buy the necessary things. Don't let outsiders laugh at our third room for being shabby."

The maid is good at acting. She said with a worried look.

"Madam, this is the money you just took out from the account office. Didn't you say you were going to look for a shop to do business?"

"Take it out. I will explain this to my husband later. My parents are in trouble. I can't just live a carefree life by myself, right?"

"Madam..."

Shang Liuniang and her servant's behavior moved the Third Old Master and the Third Old Lady.

They wanted to say a few words to shirk responsibility, but when the three thousand taels of silver notes were taken out, they remained silent.

Erlang's wife's eyes lit up, and she "took" it without any hurry.

This time she said it with more sincerity.

"Sixth sister cares so much about her parents' home. Even I, the second sister-in-law, admire her. Don't worry, I will definitely use this money well for Fourth Sister! I will definitely make the old prince of Min Wangfu unable to take his eyes off her!"

She promised solemnly, and Shang Liuniang was also very moved.

The two of them were both eloquent and good at acting, and this scene was heard by Du Jingyi through the spy's mouth without missing a word.

"If Shang Liuniang also has the mind to work outside, she would be a powerful person."

It can be seen from the fact that she made Shang Si Niang and her family willingly send her to the Min Wang Mansion to be a concubine.

She is two-faced, and has everything to gain. She also makes the people who are sucked by her extremely grateful.

She is indeed a bit skillful.

"I don't know how much she has embezzled. I don't believe that the Jia family only gave three thousand taels!"

It was Lizhu who spoke. Although she didn't see how much money the Jia family gave to Shang Liuniang with her own eyes.

But in Sui'an City, the Jia family is still a well-known wealthy family.

It is unlikely to buy a life with three thousand taels.

"She can push her own sister into the fire pit, so why is she afraid of cheating such a small amount of money?"

Yingtao hit the nail on the head.

The master and servants now have a deeper understanding of Shang Liuniang's viciousness.

Du Jingyi didn't say anything, but told the spy to keep watching.

Later, he called "Mr. Liu".

Liu Xun came from nowhere and suddenly got into the main room, which frightened Yingtao and Lizhu.

She stood in front of Du Jingyi and said with a trembling voice.

"Who are you?"

"I greet the young lady."

"Mr. Liu, there is no need to be polite, please stand up."

"Thank you, young lady."

Seeing this, the two maids realized that this person must have been left by the general.

The little bit of defense and worry was removed.

"Do you have a way to find out about the Min Palace? You can start from the prince's wife or the princess."

"I obey your command."

Hearing his straightforward answer, Du Jingyi was a little surprised.

She grew up in a merchant family, so it was not difficult for her to get information, but there were always places that they could not take into account or could not go beyond.

For example, the secrets of the courts of the princes and nobles.

But Liu Xun did not even hesitate and agreed immediately. He really had some real skills.

Such a person could be loyal to her husband, which showed his power.

Thinking of Shang Ji, her heart was touched again.

But he quickly suppressed it and said to Liu Xun.

"In that case, I'd like to trouble Mr. Liu."

Liu Xun nodded, and then left the main room in a flash.

This ability made Li Zhu praise him repeatedly!

"Sure enough, the people following the general are much more powerful than that Guard Luo!"

Her words were approved by Cherry.

At first glance, this person seems to have great abilities, unlike that guard Luo who can eat, talk a lot, and have little discernment!

Seeing that Li Zhu was somewhat interested, Du Jingyi revealed Shang Ji's previous plan.

"Li Zhu, do you think Mr. Liu is very capable?"

"Um."

Li Zhu nodded heavily, which was much better than the escorts who taught her Kung Fu in the Du family.

Naturally, there was appreciation and admiration in his eyes.

So Du Jingyi smiled and said.

"The general means that if you are interested, you can learn some kung fu from Mr. Liu, but I'm afraid you will be very tired. What do you think?"

"Ah? Can I learn from him? Will he accept a female apprentice? If I can't learn, he won't beat me, right? If I go to learn kung fu, who will take care of the young lady?"

A series of questions popped out of her mouth, making Du Jingyi and Cherry laugh.

The sun was high outside, but Xitang Courtyard was as lively as ever.

Off topic: A sincere Q&A session! ! !

Recently I have seen several readers leave comments, probably saying that the content of this article is too long and that one chapter can be expressed clearly in only three sentences.

Or maybe it means that the male and female protagonists are too useless, they always only talk but don't do anything.

I kept shouting all day long to clean it up, but in fact there was no movement.

Hahahaha, I was suddenly confused.

Because the similar situation I encountered in the previous book was completely different. It is said that my description was not detailed enough and I could go more in-depth.

So I'm going to explain it briefly.

From the beginning of this book, I was clear that it was a family story, so there would be more descriptions and psychological activities of each character.

And the number of characters appearing this time may be three times that of the previous book, so more words have to be used to describe the background and other aspects.

Another point is that although about 80 chapters were written, it actually took place in the first month after the male and female protagonists met.

Do you want the male protagonist to kill all the best relatives in a month? Personally I don't think it's possible.

So, I want to ask sisters, is it really procrastinating?

If it's too slow, I'll reduce the description of these parts and speed up the pace.

But actually, in my heart, I yearn to describe a plot just like daily life, and then use some strategies to fight against the best relatives~~

House fighting really doesn’t require so much use of knives and guns. I feel that killing with a borrowed knife, diverting firepower, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger are all more commonly used.

After the story of Sui An City is finished, we will move to other map parts, where there may be a large description of the content of the battlefield and the feelings of family and country.

Therefore, Lizai, I specifically asked the sisters what they meant.

Are you still accustomed to this rhythm?

Or do you want it to be faster?

Hahaha, Li Zai’s main thing is to be obedient!

Your opinions are very important to me! ! !

So I hope that the sisters who are studying can speak freely. I will try my best to understand everyone’s thoughts and come up with more provocative improvements~~~

Thank you~~
