My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Chapter 32 Beating the Tricky Slave

Qi Er will appear here, completely by appointment.

Ever since Shang Ji said he wanted to move out, many pairs of eyes in the Duke's Mansion were staring at him.

Seeing that the couple had missed the night and still didn't come back, naturally someone wanted to stay guard.

If we can find a handle or something, we can force the people in the third and fifth houses to be tougher and find trouble.

It's a pity that Qi Er is stupid.

Luo Yuan immediately discovered the trace.

Fortunately, the young lady opened her mouth to help him out, and he happily climbed down the pole.

It's a pity that when the words were spoken, no one answered.

Especially when I saw the young master Shang Ji standing with his hands behind his hands without saying a word, I sweated a lot.

She knelt down in front of him and begged for mercy.

The little one is blind and can't see the road clearly in the dark. He bumped into the general. Please don't remember the villain's fault and let the little one go.

When he came up, he put a high hat on Shang Ji, thinking that because of his reputation, he could escape the disaster.

Unfortunately, he guessed the wrong person.

After listening to his explanation, Shang Ji just said oh lightly, and then said to Luo Yuan.

Since he is blind, it was not intentional. Just be gentle and give him fifty military sticks.

yes!

When Luo Yuan heard about fifty military sticks, his eyes radiated some coldness.

Seeing that, Qi Er's scalp suddenly went numb.

He immediately begged his father to sue his grandmother.

You know you're wrong, I know you're wrong. General, please show mercy.

Only then did he realize that there were some people he could mess with and some people he couldn't mess with.

Thinking of the masters who lived in Dongyuan in the past, one was more cowardly than the other, and he thought that this general was just famous.

Unexpectedly, opening his mouth would be a fatal blow.

Unfortunately, before his cry could spread far, Luo Yuan covered his mouth and nose and dragged him away.

When the four maids and Mama Cai who accompanied Du Jingyi back home saw them, they were all scared to death.

They were in the back house, bickering and making trouble.

Being so powerful means fifty military sticks. It seems that this second steward Qi will either die or be seriously disabled.

Therefore, I swallowed my saliva and secretly reminded myself that I must be more careful when serving in the future, otherwise, I am afraid they will be punished by military discipline next.

Luo Yuan dragged the person outside to beat him, but naturally they didn't hear anything.

The couple walked side by side towards Xitang Courtyard under the moonlight.

It's like nothing happened.

Du Jingyi, who was originally thinking about consummating the marriage, was disturbed by this incident and had some lingering fears.

It wasn't until he entered the courtyard that Shang Ji spoke.

Go back and rest early.

Then he turned around and walked towards the study.

Mother Cai next to me didn't know where she got the courage, so she suddenly said something stiffly.

General, you are too exposed, and the study is not very easy to live in. Otherwise, you should go back to the main room and rest.

God knows what kind of determination she had when she said this, but she has not forgotten Madam's repeated instructions before.

After all, we have to be together one day early and the other day later. Isn’t today just the right day?

Hearing these words from Cai's mother, Du Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief.

If she was really asked to mention it, she really didn't know how to say it.

Shang Ji said nothing and only looked at Du Jingyi.

The meaning couldn't be more clear.

If Du Jingyi asked him to stay, he would naturally stay.

After waiting for a while and seeing that Du Jingyi didn't say anything, Shang Ji understood.

I didn't intend to force it, just when I was about to speak.

Just listen to Du Jingyi say softly.

I am very happy when I come home today. If the general is fine, can you please drink two cups with me? It would also be good to ask Dan Ruo to cook some side dishes to fill my stomach.

After saying this, Shang Ji was also stunned for a moment.

But by some strange coincidence, he said, Okay.

At this point, no one else was more excited than the four maids and Mama Cai.

He said quickly.

This slave will prepare some dishes that the general likes to eat.

Slave, go get the wine.

The slave will go get some hot water to help the general and the young lady wash themselves.

In a hurry, everyone had their own places to go, which made Du Jingyi and Shang Ji stand there in embarrassment.

Let's go.

yes.

The two of them were on the porch, but in just a few steps, they entered the main room.

This is the third time Shang Ji has entered the main room.

It feels different from the previous two times.

He took the handkerchief handed over by the maid Yingying and purified his hands. The usually simple copper basin for purifying his hands seemed to be engraved with crabapple flowers.

The Du family's dowry truly declares who its master is.

And he, the original owner of the house, seemed to be a guest at this moment.

Soon, the food and wine were served.

Shang Ji was not hungry at first, but when he saw the food on the table, he actually felt like eating.

It can be seen that Danruo's craftsmanship is excellent.

While eating, Du Jingyi found that there was no one in the room.

On the contrary, you can see what is covered on the bed through the Suzhou embroidered screen.

After a pause, he filled up two glasses of wine.

Lifting one of the cups, he said to Shang Ji.

Coming home late today is because I have exceeded the rules. Next time, you should pay attention to this. This glass of wine can be regarded as an apology to the general.

Then he drank it all in one gulp, without any sloppiness at all.

Shang Ji frowned and looked at her, as if he didn't understand why she did this.

He explained after a moment.

If you are concerned about this, don't worry. I think it won't be a day or two to deal with Beiyuan's people. Qi Er just happened to bump into them.

Although his original intention was to use the staff to punish Qi Er to let the other servants understand who the master of the house was.

But it was more or less the idea of ​​telling him to shut up and stop talking nonsense.

I just said this because I was afraid that my wife, Du Jingyi, would remember me.

Du Jingyi is not stupid, so he naturally understands what his husband Shang Ji means.

So he filled another glass and continued.

I would like to thank the general for coming back to offer tea today. Since ancient times, the status of a merchant has never been on the table, but you still gave my parents enough face. I will propose another cup.

As he said this, he drank another cup, his face not red and his heart not beating.

Shang Ji picked up the cup and smelled it was Nuerhong.

So he fully understood what Du Jingyi meant at this moment.

There is an unwritten rule in Daxing Dynasty.

If any family gave birth to a daughter, they would bury her deep in the ground with wine.

Wait for the wedding day to be opened in advance and married into the husband's home.

If you can drink this wine on the wedding night, it means that the couple will be harmonious and have a smooth life.

Three years ago, he did not drink this glass of wine.

But now, the wine has been served on the table, and my wife has already drank two glasses.

Shang Ji's eyes deepened, and then he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Let’s just say that the last chapter was locked in a small dark room... Hey, I originally wanted to give the sisters a benefit ~ stop the fire...
