MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 473 As usual (Xiaoxiang ticket will be updated)

Hearing what Cherry said, Cai’s mother was surprised.

Although she knew before that Li Zhu was learning skills from the Fourth Madam, she didn't expect that she could learn the skills so well and now she could do it on her own.

 He was also very emotional, and then he said.

“I thought this little girl was the most playful, but I didn’t expect that she could endure the hardships of practicing martial arts. She is such a good child!”

 Then he looked at Shuxiu who was next to Yingying and said with a welcoming look on his face.

"Who is this…"

"The slave Shuxiu was assigned to the old lady for her use when she was still alive. I have met Mama Cai."

I see. Mother Cai glanced at Shuxiu's generous and decent appearance. Although her lips were smiling, she couldn't help but feel a little more wary in her heart.

Nowadays, the maids are all of a good age, and the family members know that their thoughts will not wander randomly, but they have to guard against this sudden appearance. Who knows what she is thinking, after all, the wealth of the general's mansion and the benevolence of the general , everyone can see it.

 If someone wants to climb into bed, it may not happen.

 So, she has to take precautions.

Having been taken care of by Mama Cai for many years, Du Jingyi knew what Mama Cai was thinking at a glance. It was sweet and funny in her heart. She would have to talk to Mama Cai about the situation alone someday, so her defense against Shuxiu would not be so obvious.

As for Shuxiu, who was the only "outsider" in the Xitang Courtyard, he was naturally a little cautious. He was afraid that he would do something wrong and make people laugh at the Gu family's old house, so he did his duty and behaved in a proper manner. Take care of your own business.

 Cherry and she have known each other for two or three years, so he said when he saw this.

"How about I take Shuxiu down and put the water on first, Madam, take a bath and change clothes before eating?"

 “Well, add more condensation to get rid of the fatigue.”

 “This slave knows.”

 “Madam, where are the young gentlemen?”

 When mentioning this, Du Jingyi couldn't help but laugh, raised his finger and pointed to the yard next door and said.

“Father and mother are here, can the children come back with me?”

Hearing this, Cai’s mother’s eyes also lit up, and then she said.

“The old slave will go down first and tell them to prepare food.”

"Okay, Mother Cai will go ask the children what they want to eat. They also ate Sui'an dishes when they were in Jinling City, so there is no need to worry about not liking it."

 “The old slave knows!”

 After all the people who were waiting had left the room, the room became quiet. Gu Shaoyu raised his hand and handed over a glass of warm water and said.

 “You’re back, and there’s going to be a lot more life in this room.”

“The general’s words are true. Businessmen like the sun. The more angry they are, the more prosperous they will be. It’s a good sign!”

“You, your three words are all about getting rich. Why, isn’t it enough to bite Qifang in the middle of Jinling City?”

Gu Shaoyu pulled her to sit on the couch under the bright window and asked casually. Du Jingyi leaned in his arms and spoke sincerely.

"I've spit it out a long time ago. It's not easy for my sister-in-law to be in charge of the house, so if I have more money in my hand, it won't be easy to be constrained in doing things in the future. So, not only did I make no profit from this trip to Jinling City, but I also made a profit from it. The Yan family has lost a lot of money, and after returning to its own territory, of course it will be better to make more money to make up for the loss!"

"Little money lover! The affairs of the former prince are almost settled. I guess the reward will come out in the next two days. No matter how much it is, it will be put into your private treasury. How about it as compensation for your husband?"

When Du Jingyi heard this, he immediately sat up in his arms. "The general didn't say anything, but I almost forgot to ask, how is it? Have you found out? Who is causing trouble behind the scenes?"

Du Jingyi is also very curious about the remnants of the previous dynasty. His general left Jinling City on the first day of the first lunar month. It has been more than three months since then. He thinks he can get to the bottom of it.

Coupled with Luo Yuan's hatred, Du Jingyi didn't believe that he would not be ruthless!

Just when Gu Shaoyu was about to answer her, Tao Tao came in at an inappropriate time.

“Madam, the water has been put away. You can take a shower and change clothes.”

Du Jingyi wanted to refuse, but Gu Shaoyu sent her into the side room and said with a smile.

“You take a dip first to get rid of the fatigue, and we’ll talk about it later when things get better.”

 “General…”

 “I couldn’t finish talking for a while, but the water turned cold and I got cold.”

Du Jingyi had no choice but to listen to Gu Shaoyu's words, and finally got into the bathtub with this matter in mind. The warm water temperature gave her a sense of comfort, and the fatigue on the way home suddenly disappeared.

They come, the security.

Du Jingyi soaked in the ear room for half an hour, then shampooed, wiped her body, and applied perfume and massage. When she came out, the sky was getting a little dark.

 When Du Jingyi came out, his whole face was radiant.

Although she didn’t get disgraced along the way, there was still a big difference between washing up on the ship and washing up at home. She even felt like she had shed all her skin, and then sighed.

 “Still comfortable at home.”

 Entering the main room, he saw Gu Shaoyu reading a book. The books were still idle books, but he read them with great interest.

When he looked up and saw Du Jingyi coming in, the smile on Gu Shaoyu's lips seemed to be ripples, and his eyes were full of beauty.

"Mother Cai just sent someone to send a message, saying that the food is ready and placed in the flower hall. The father-in-law and the mother-in-law went there with the children first. Today Xue Niang and Shiro will also stay at home to eat, so you should pack up quickly. Come on, let’s go there together.”

"good."

Hearing these words, Yingying and Shuxiu quickly packed them up for Du Jingyi.

She put on the comfortable dress she usually wore. As for her hair, which had already dried in the ear room, she chose a low-key bun and tied it up immediately. Then she inserted a few hairpins into it, and that was it. .

 Seeing her dressing up in such a simple and comfortable way, Gu Shaoyu's mouth felt as if it was sweetened with honey.

“Madam is indeed as beautiful as a hibiscus. The more plain she is, the more beautiful and refined she becomes.”

"General, don't brag. I am still a pretty person. If you say so, won't my boxes of jewelry become useless? We don't have a daughter in the house, so we can't give them away. How about that? Don’t you want to smash it into your hands?”

“Don’t be afraid if you don’t have a daughter. Just wait and see what your four daughters-in-law will be in the future. I’m afraid your jewelry boxes won’t be enough!”

Hearing this, Du Jingyi also chuckled. It has been a long time since he talked to her husband in such a joking manner, and it was quite cordial.

Finally, he put on a cloak and went out with his general, heading straight to the flower hall.

  Along the way, the scenery is even better than before.

Du Jingyi was moved when he saw it, and then said.

“When I wait for two days to recover, I will give everyone in the house a generous reward!” (End of this chapter)
