My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Now, he's back.

If a room full of women, children and children were allowed to be bullied, then he, as an uncle and brother, would be useless.

Thinking of this, a trace of scarlet blood appeared in the corners of his eyes.

After so many years of fighting in the military camp, he had not learned anything about conspiracy.

Aren't they shouting every day to talk about the Gu family's taboos?

Then he would give them a great show.

We must let the world see what it means to be a poisonous woman who has been widowed!

Xue Niang cried so sadly that Shang Ji didn't know how to comfort her.

He had no choice but to pat her shoulder and assure her firmly.

I won't do it anymore. Brother Six will make the decision for you!

Then he scanned around her house.

The furnishings in the main room of Xitang Courtyard are certainly incomparable, but there is nothing wrong with it.

Just a little smaller.

So he spoke.

In a few days, ask your sixth sister-in-law to take you to the general's mansion to see if there is a yard you like. If not, sixth brother will build one for you.

The arrogant tone made Xue Niang stunned on the spot.

But then I thought about the reward of ten thousand taels of gold.

It is used to repair the house, but I don’t know how luxurious it can be.

But she kept her sister-in-law Liu's teachings in mind and immediately shook her head.

Brother Six, you have just come back. Don't be too ostentatious, otherwise you will let the people in the yard next door pester you, and you will not even be able to live an happy life in the future.

Humph, do they deserve it?

The whole palace is like a bug nest.

If he hadn't cared so much about his father Shang Guogong, he wouldn't even be willing to come back.

The reason why I am still staying in Dongyuan.

It's just to arrange for all the people he cares about to move away.

But he didn't plan to tell Xue Niang about this.

So he calmed down and said.

You will have your haircut someday. If mother is not around, Sixth Brother will let grandma, eldest sister-in-law and your sixth sister-in-law organize a grand event for you, so that outsiders will not look down upon our eighth lady.

When he said this, his tone was firm and unquestionable.

Although Xue Niang is worried.

One can imagine that Sixth Brother is almost 30 years old now.

I have been fighting abroad for so long.

Since he was so willing, it was better not to spoil his temperament.

As for whether the haircut ceremony was grand or not, she didn't care.

The most important thing is that the family can live a peaceful life, which is the best thing.

So, he nodded and said nothing else.

The experience of leaving Hanyiyuan made Shang Ji's mood hit rock bottom.

Along the way, when walking back.

He recalled many memories of when his mother and eldest brother were still alive.

At that time, their family was very happy.

Unfortunately, everything ended ten years ago.

Thinking of this, the steps under his feet became more steady.

As for the people in the third and fifth rooms of Beiyuan, they still don’t know that they are about to be in disaster.

He was still in the courtyard at this moment, cursing fiercely.

In Xitang Courtyard.

The sun was high.

After a long morning of hard work, it’s time for lunch.

If it were in the past, Du Jingyi would never treat himself badly.

When you should eat and when you should sleep, you have always been very disciplined.

But things are different now, there is a general in the yard.

Even if she was hungry, she had to wait for her husband, the general, to come back and have a meal together.

So, Shang Ji just came back and was about to go to the study, but he was caught by Aunt Dou on the way.

She is about fifty years old and a well-organized person.

She used to be Mrs. Gu's most capable housekeeper.

Since Mrs. Gu's death, she has been staying in this courtyard and never leaving.

From the service of several masters to the discipline of servants, it is never done by others.

Therefore, a few years have passed, except for a few more gray hairs on the temples.

The whole person's spirit is still as neat as before.

When Shang Ji saw her, his emotions had almost calmed down.

So he opened his mouth and asked.

Aunt Dou, is there something wrong?

Seeing Grandma Dou smiling, she bowed and replied.

General, the young lady is still waiting for you in the main room. It's time for lunch.

After hearing her mention it like this, Shang Ji remembered it.

As a man who marches and fights, he has never had anything to eat.

But Mrs. Du was a woman raised in a boudoir, which was different from him.

He nodded immediately and said.

Is the kitchen ready?

It's been prepared a long time ago.

Then let's pass on the food.

yes.

He took a few steps forward, then paused and said.

You don't have to worry about me in the future. As long as it's time to eat, just let me use it. I'll find something to eat when I'm hungry.

Aunt Dou was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then she smiled even more kindly.

It's great to see my general feel sorry for others.

So, she answered loudly.

yes.

Du Jingyi sat in the room and ate two pieces of cake.

She had woken up late in the morning and rushed to serve tea to the Duke, so naturally she didn't have breakfast.

After having been fussing for so long, my stomach is very empty.

She obviously just went to get a bowl of sugar water, but when she came back, her husband was gone.

The debris in the house was also swept away.

In desperation, she planned to use the pear water herself, but was stopped by Li Zhu.

She opened her mouth and told her not to drink pear water on an empty stomach, and also brought out two pieces of pastry that she usually loved.

Du Jingyi was so happy that he completely forgot about lunch.

I ate all the pastries and used half a bowl of pear water.

Therefore, Shang Ji over there thought his wife was hungry.

Therefore, the pace is much faster.

Du Jingyi, on the other hand, has no greed in his stomach at the moment and is enjoying reading some idle books for fun.

As soon as Shang Ji entered the door, he saw her like this.

I thought I was very hungry, so I diverted my attention by reading a book.

He said with a slight frown.

You don't have to wait for me in the future. If you're hungry, just pass me some food.

Du Jingyi was slightly stunned, not expecting this majestic general to say such a thing.

But soon, she came to her senses, and out of courtesy, she excused herself.

The general is at home, and I will dine with you.

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, Shang Ji waved his hand.

Said again bluntly.

I come from a military background, so there aren't that many rules, so there's no need to be formal.

Hearing this, Du Jingyi was not polite.

He replied with a smile.

My mother-in-law is a merchant, and there aren't that many rules. I was afraid that the rules in the Duke's mansion would be strict, so I asked the etiquette nun to learn it for a few days, just for fear of making people laugh.

Hearing this, Shang Ji understood a lot.

He is out there and his achievements are great.

Rules and such can be put aside.

But the housewives seem to regard this as the standard by which they look at people, so they should pay attention to everything they say and do.

After thinking for a while, he said to Aunt Dou.

Go to Gu's house in two days to invite Mother Qin over and give you some advice, Madam.
