MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 542 He Dujia

Chapter 542: He Du Family

Mr. Du's words are not unreasonable, but the official positions that can be used for trading are the size of sesame seeds and mung beans, and the level is not as good as what he had in Pingzhou City, so He Shilin is not willing to do so.

Du Jingyi didn’t think this could be done. On the contrary, Xing Zhao next to him heard it and took it to heart.

"Don't rush into this matter. Let's see what my brother-in-law wants. If he doesn't want to come to Sui'an City, your arrangement will make him uncomfortable. Isn't it in vain?"

“That being said, we also have good intentions, mainly for the sake of our children.”

"I know you have good intentions, but don't make it a bad thing. If you have the opportunity, it would be most suitable to be transferred to Sui'an City through a normal official career. But if you want to buy an official position, I think it is better to give up this idea!"

Mr. Du and Mrs. Du sighed, and could only look at the children playing happily beside them, silently saying nothing.

 After leaving the Du family, Du Jingyi also looked worried.

 A sister’s children are also her nieces and nephews. How could she not plan for them? It's just that her parents' method is really not very good, so she doesn't agree with it.

Even if Xia Meng could see her silence, he couldn't help. After entering the general's mansion, it was time for the children to go back to rest, and then Xing Zhao stopped Du Jingyi.

"What's wrong? Cousin Zhao, do you have something to tell me?"

“When my cousin left, he told me that he would stir up any trouble at home, so today my cousin came back from her parents’ home feeling depressed. But why are you bothered about brother-in-law He?”

 “You are very discerning.”

Xing Zhao smiled, and then waited for Du Jingyi to speak. Du Jingyi did not hide it from him, so he told him about his parents' intention to buy an official position for his brother-in-law He Shilin.

"Of course I don't agree, but my Du family has no way to help my brother-in-law in Sui'an City. The general is far away in Wangzhou, and the Guo family has only just recovered. I can't bother them with these things, so You have to think of another way."

 After hearing what Du Jingyi said, Xing Zhao smiled, looking confident.

"What should I do? My cousin is not in Sui'an City. Doesn't this still belong to me? Leave brother-in-law He's affairs to me. I guarantee that I won't use the Xing family's connections and can make him obey smoothly. Transferred from the state.”

 “Seriously? Can you do it?”

"Cousin, are you looking down on people? Do you think I have been living for free in Sui'an City all these years? It's more obvious if I enter Sui'an City. How about going to Xuanzhou? It's only half a day's journey from Sui'an City. "

Xuanzhou is the closest place to Sui'an City, and it is also very close to the place where the Tigers and Tigers used to train. If we hurry up, we can reach Sui'an City from Xuanzhou in three or four hours, so if this is true, Of course Du Jingyi was grateful to Xing Zhao for being able to handle it.

 Therefore, Du Jingyi's eyebrows brightened a lot, and then he spoke to Xing Zhao.

“Then this matter will trouble my cousin? Don’t worry, if we need to clear things up or something, all the expenses will be taken from my private account and I will never embarrass you.”

Xing Zhao nodded, because even if he refused, his cousin would still have to remember it, so why bother?

 With Xing Zhao's words just now, Du Jingyi can have a good sleep tonight.

But she didn't overdo it. After all, the matter hadn't been settled yet. It would be her fault if she made the head of the family happy in vain, so she told Xing Zhao and treated it as if it never happened. . Two days later, everyone in the Du family was congratulating Master Du on his birthday.

They are not a noble family, so the banquet was naturally not as exaggerated as Master Li's. However, all the relatives and friends who were supposed to come were also present, and the scene was quite lively.

The General's Mansion, the Duke's Mansion, the Guo Family, the Li Family and the Earl's Mansion were all invited. As for the Xing family, Du Jingyi sent someone to send the post, but the result was as expected. No one from the Xing family came, just a few people. People came to send congratulatory gifts, and this post was considered complete.

The Han family are now imperial merchants, so they have some contacts with these noble families, so they are not too afraid of the scene, but other merchant families are a little uncomfortable with it.

“If Brother Du hadn’t invited us here, we wouldn’t have seen such a character, and Brother Du must be so proud!”

“It’s just that your little girl is marrying well. Look at all the unattainable people she associates with. It’s really thanks to you.”

Those who spoke in a hurry naturally meant what they said, but He Shilin's face, standing aside, was not that good. He was slightly pale, his eyes were downcast, and his shoulders were slumped a lot.

Mr. Du is such a fine person, he said quickly.

"The younger daughter naturally married well, but that's because she and her second uncle have a harmonious relationship and the family is stable, so she married well. My eldest daughter also married well. Her parents-in-law love her, her husband cares about her, and her children are filial."

His words can be regarded as giving He Shilin some face and protection. After others reacted, they also followed suit, but it is unclear how much of it is sincere and how much is false.

Although He Qianyun is young, he still has the ability to read people's faces. He and the four brothers Tai Geer followed behind Mr. Du, talking and socializing with the guests.

It has to be said that the more such an occasion, the more calm and comfortable the Tai brothers are reflected. Although He Qianyun does not want to appear too restrained, he has only been in Sui'an City for a few days. month's time.

 Seeing these elders, they are all familiar faces, so it is not necessary to be timid, but if you want to play with treasures as freely as Tai Geer and the others, you cannot.

He Shilin saw it and felt extremely distressed, but the protagonist today was not him, so he had to smile even if he forced a smile.

Du Jingxiang is better than him. After all, the people who came today are all people he has met before, and Mrs. Du and Du Jingyi are there. Those ladies are also laughing and laughing. Although she is not playing the leading role next to her, she can say from time to time The above few words are still very comfortable.

  Coupled with the help from my sisters-in-law Liu and Xue Niang, the atmosphere is good.

“Mrs. Du is so lucky to have two such caring daughters, your son-in-law also respects you, and your grandchildren are lively and lovely, which really makes us envious.”

“As for the countess, she is blessed to have a daughter. Who in the world doesn’t know that the countess has a queen, and I can’t compare with you.”

 No one from the Xing family came today, so naturally those who came were all supporting the Yan family of the Earl's Mansion.

Coupled with the fact that Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li spoke together, the countess smiled sincerely, but whether it was really as she wished was their business.
