MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 50 Listen to the corner

Chapter 50 Listen to the corner

 After saying this, Shang Ji asked the two of them to leave.

After walking out of the study door, the two of them looked at each other, sighed briefly, and continued to do what they were doing.

 This turmoil only stopped between Shang Ji and his sister-in-law Liu, and did not affect Du Jingyi.

 Therefore, after she woke up from a comfortable sleep and returned to her cage, the maid Cherry told her that the general was back.

 For a moment, she felt a little hard to face, or a little embarrassed.

 But it was only for a moment, and I was relieved soon.

If newlyweds are so pretentious, how can they survive?

 And they are still an "old couple" who have been married for more than three years. Thinking of this, Du Jingyi ordered while washing up.

“Let Danruo cook some good food and send it over today. Remember to make more of what the general likes to eat.”

 “Don’t worry, young lady, I know this.”

"Um."

Cherry quickly went outside to deliver the letter and went to the small kitchen to give instructions.

Li Zhu was serving Du Jingyi and dressed neatly again.

The sun is nice today and there is less of the coolness of autumn, so Du Jingyi wears cool clothes.

 Wearing a peach-colored blouse with a floor-length skirt, she looks more delicate than a flower.

The hairpin on the head is a begonia flower with pearls. The exquisite craftsmanship makes the begonia flowers on this wave look particularly expressive.

Especially with Du Jingyi’s pace, it adds a lot of charm to her.

Looking at Du Jingyi in the rhombus bronze mirror, the maid Li Zhu couldn't help but sigh.

 “The young lady is so beautiful.”

"Hey, are there so few words of praise? Have you forgotten all the words you learned in the Du family school?"

Li Zhu smiled and immediately praised.

 “The young lady is naturally beautiful, has a good face, is virtuous and decent, dignified and generous, and is extremely beautiful...”

Du Jingyi listened with peace of mind to the maid's praise of herself. Somehow, when she heard "beautiful", she also heard a short chuckle from outside.

 Immediately raised his voice and asked.

 “Who’s out there?”

 Perhaps he was spotted in the corner, and there was a hint of embarrassment on Shang Ji's face.

 Fortunately, there was no blush on his skin, so he walked through the door of the main room.

"it's me."

The voice was deep and magnetic, and Du Jingyi felt embarrassed instantly.

Maid Li Zhu also had a bitter look on her face. Why was she so unlucky? She was praising his wife, but the general came.

But it was useless no matter how embarrassed they were, the master and the servant still got up and walked out.

 When he saw Shang Ji, he immediately saluted and said.

 “I have met the general.”

 “I have seen the general.”

 “Well, get up.”

 “Thank you, General.”

 He was still wearing the same set of clothes that he had worn when he left the house yesterday, and had not changed.

 But Du Jingyi's outfit is already the third or fourth one Shang Ji has ever seen.

 The two of them had slanderous opinions about each other.

 One is that her husband’s clothes are too few and he doesn’t even have to change them.

 One is that my wife has so many hairpins on her clothes that she can see some new ones every day.

 But neither of them spoke a word, they just sat down side by side in front of the Eight Immortals Table.

 Then Li Zhu handed over a handkerchief and used it to cleanse their hands. Not long after, Cherry and Danruo brought two large food boxes over.

 Another large table full of dishes made Du Jingyi feel a little sour in his heart.

This girl Danruo, why didn't she have so many dishes when she was just serving her?

 But the general is back. Not only has the volume become much larger, but the content has also become much richer.

 For example, today there is kumquat crab soup that she likes very much. She doesn’t even need to taste it. She is hungry just from the smell.

Seeing a slight movement in her throat, Shang Ji understood it, so he spoke.

“Let’s eat first, and we’ll go out later.”

"Um?"

Du Jingyi was a little strange, why did he suddenly want to go out?

 Then Shang Ji explained.

“The key to the General’s Mansion has been sent over, we have to go and have a look.”

Du Jingyi looked suddenly enlightened and replied calmly.

 “I understand.”

 Then, the two of them ate their lunch carefully.

 This meal was the second meal the two of them had eaten alone since Shang Ji came back.

 Perhaps it’s because the marriage has been consummated, so we are a little closer in terms of status.

For example, Du Jingyi would want to give her husband an extra bowl of soup, and Shang Ji would pay attention to what Du Jingyi likes to eat before putting down his chopsticks, and put some on her plate.

Such "affection" made the maids nearby couldn't help but feel secretly happy when they saw it.

 It is the best thing for your young lady to get along well with the general.

Especially Li Zhu, who really wanted to publicize everything that happened in the past few days.

It can also show those women and servants who like to gossip, how their young ladies can catch the eye of the general.



 A meal, everyone ate with their own thoughts.

 After the meal, Du Jingyi originally planned to make some tea for digestion.

 As a result, Lu Ju happened to come over to report something.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Shang Ji there, so she saluted respectfully and said.

 “This slave has met the general and the young lady.”

 “Get up, but something happens?”

Lu Ju’s temperament is the dullest among the dowry maids, and she will not appear in the main house easily.

Every day, I like most of my time to study embroidery in the house, so Du Jingyi knows that there is something wrong with her sudden appearance.

Lu Ju nodded and said in a calm tone.

"Back to the young lady, the general's clothes that were sent to me before were only outer clothes, without inner clothes and shoes and socks, so I went here specially to ask if there are any commonly used ones that I can use to compare and make. , it won’t take long, it will be delivered this evening.”

 What she said is true.

 The clothes she has always made are fit and comfortable, which naturally has a lot to do with size.

 But Du Jingyi didn't have what she needed, so he could only look sideways at Shang Ji next to him, and then explained.

"I have asked them to bring the general's things in the study, but these regular clothes are a bit short, so I specially sent them to Lu Jue to make more. If the general is fine, can Lu Jue take some measurements? , the clothes and shoes made in this way are also comfortable to wear.”

Shang Ji naturally understood her kindness.

So he said "hmm", stood up, spread out his hands, and let Lu Jue measure up and down.

During this period, I carefully wrote down the dimensions.

After spending a cup of tea like this, I saw someone coming outside again.

Steward He's voice rang out in the yard.
