MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 522 Three years later
"I brought some specialties from my hometown and asked Aunt Dou to send them to your respective courtyards later. You can try them all. Also, when I went this time, my brothers at home also hunted a few white foxes, so I Bring the leather with you and make a big cloak for the four brothers. They will be warm and comfortable to wear."
It’s really too early to make winter clothes when the summer is hot.
But white fox fur is rare and the color is suitable. They are still in the period of mourning, so it is suitable to wear this.
So Tagor took the fourth aunt's hand and said.
“Thank you, Fourth Grandma, Tiger Tai likes it very much.”
The other three brothers also followed what their elder brother said, but they couldn't repeat it completely, so they only said "thank you" and "like".
So, although no one was invited to the birthday banquet of the three brothers, the family was still lively enough. After all, the reunion of the whole family was more important than anything else.
After the birthday party, the children were arranged to go to bed.
Du Jingyi and Gu Shaoyu coaxed them personally, and the four brothers fell asleep quickly.
Looking at their even breathing and sleeping little faces, the couple held hands together. Although they were speechless, they both decided to protect the home together and prevent wind and rain from eroding these cute and innocent faces.
Spring passed and autumn came, and three summers and winters passed.
In the General's Mansion, the flowers in Xitang Courtyard are in full bloom, making the yard even more vibrant.
Du Jingyi, who was sitting under the bright window and drinking tea, had been idle at home for three years, but he had taken good care of himself. His skin became as white as snow and his hair was like waterfalls.
A few days ago, they had just taken off their filial piety, and now they finally put on a cute peach-colored Begonia flower dress. The skirt was also decorated with shiny pearls, which was really beautiful.
“What should I do, madam? Do we really have to go to the banquet? I’m afraid I’ll be exhausted.”
Cherry on the side is carefully sorting out the days and hours so that he can prepare gifts and avoid mistakes.
And when she saw the thick pile of posts in front of her, she also had a headache.
Skipping the two days of June 18th and 19th, from June 15th to July 23rd, every family was considered a family, as long as they could live to breathe in the new dynasty, they all delivered it. Post here.
It is as powerful as the general's palace, but it has not attended the banquet of the aristocratic family in Sui'an City for three years. So after taking off one's filial piety, who will not send a post?
Compared to Cherry's headache, Du Jingyi was more prepared.
During the three years of her mourning at home, she was not idle. Anything that happened outside or even in the palace would be spread to her ears, so it was impossible not to go to these banquets.
Concubine Xing gave birth to the seventh prince in early October of the first year of Hongyuan.
At the same time, the Liangjiang area in charge of the Xing family also had a good harvest, contributing 70% of the treasury revenue in one go. Therefore, even if the harem is headed by the queen, the limelight in the past two years cannot be compared to that of Concubine Xing, let alone the same The eighth prince’s concubine Zhen was also born.
Du Jingyi picked up a post at random, and it happened to be from the Li family.
In the autumn of that year, the concubine selection was held, and as expected, as my sister-in-law Liu said, the second young lady of the Li family entered the palace and was granted the title of concubine, and she was particularly good with the queen.
In two to three months, she will be giving birth to a child, and by then the title of noble concubine will be natural. The flower blooms on two branches and falls in two places.
In the palace, Concubine Li is pregnant, and outside the palace, the eldest lady of the Li family, who has married Heping'er, is also about to have a child.
His filial piety period lasted for one year, so after the national mourning period was over, he got married in August last year, and by the end of the year, he was two months pregnant. Now he is eight months pregnant, and he is not far away from giving birth. Far.
Du Jingyi is very satisfied with this niece-in-law.
Fortunately, Ping'er insisted on choosing the eldest lady instead of the second lady, so now everyone in the Duke's palace is united and peaceful. Unlike the empress Li Bin in the palace, who has been at odds with Concubine Xing time and time again, so this pampering It also happens sometimes.
The Li family’s post is a birthday post.
Mr. Li is in the year of destiny this year, so he will naturally have a grand banquet.
Du Jingyi looked at the date, it was the fourth day of July, and said to the cherry.
“Don’t make a mistake about this. As for the gifts, just go to the warehouse and choose the ones you want.”
“The gift is so good, will it make people think that our General’s Office has any intentions?”
"Don't worry, even if the gift is not good, there are still rumors outside. The eldest lady of the Li family is now Ping'er's wife. We still have to give her this face. After you see Ping'er get married, the smile on my sister-in-law's face will be gone. Is there a lot more than before? It means that the wife here has been found well. Since Mrs. Li treats her sister-in-law Heping'er with care, we naturally have to treat her family in return, so just do as I say, it will be fine. "
Hearing this, Cherry nodded, so she focused on the Li family's registration.
She was doing things conscientiously, but Du Jingyi also had other thoughts in his eyes when he looked at her.
Chingtao is about the same age as Du Jingyi. She is now twenty-six or seventeen years old. The maids in the palace have to be let out to get married when they reach the age of twenty-five, let alone the families outside.
It was just because he had been organizing funerals in recent years that he didn't put this matter on the agenda. So now that he had some free time, Du Jingyi thought about it, so he paused and asked.
"Cherry, you are not young now. Do you have someone you like? Anyone from inside or outside the house is fine. As long as they are good to you and have a clean family background, just tell me and I will give it to you." You decide!"
Hearing this, Cherry, who was still concentrating on writing the booklet, looked up in surprise and said.
“Madam, do you think I’m too old to be useful? Why do you suddenly want to send me off to get married?”
"What nonsense are you talking about? No one in this house knows that you are the most popular with me. However, Brother Tai and his brothers are now five or six years old, and you are still single. I am always worried about you, right? "
Hearing this, Cherry smiled.
"If that's the case, then Madam, just take it easy. I'm not interested in anyone. I just want to stay in this house to be an aunt and a nanny, and to be with Madam all the time. But it's Dan Ruo and Chef Liu's. My son, Lu Ju, and Manager Jiang from the second door have a good impression of each other. If Madam really wants to find a good way out for us sisters, she should make the decision for them first."
“Huh? Why don’t I know this?”
"During the filial piety period, no one makes trouble. Doesn't this bring discredit to the general's palace? So I keep suppressing it. But the servant is careful and sees it, so he has the courage to tell the lady, "No, the lady will call Let them ask." (End of chapter)
