Chapter 55 Revealing Family Scandal (Second Update)

  After all, everything is related by blood.

If this matter is really done, I'm afraid he may not be able to see Wufang in such dire straits.

Hence, while he was beating a drum in his heart, he saw Shang Ji suddenly raise the corner of his mouth and said to her with appreciation in his eyes.

"It's a good idea. The people in the two houses should also suffer some hardships. They don't have to keep thinking that we, Dongyuan, are easy to bully."

Hearing this sentence, Du Jingyi felt relieved.

 I planned to continue saying something, but was interrupted by Shang Ji.

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about it. I was the one who caused this, so naturally it's my turn to clean it up. You just have to deal with the relocation."

 “Seriously?”

"nature."

Shang Ji was a man of one word in the army, and he naturally had the same tone when doing things at home.

When Du Jingyi heard this, he just smiled and nodded in agreement.

To be honest, if she forced her way through, her sister-in-law would not be able to meet her.

Since the general's words have come to this, she doesn't have to rush to be a "peacemaker".

 After the two started talking, they were silent for a short while.

Du Jingyi seemed much calmer now due to his previous experience.

 It’s just that there are some things that it’s not good for her to say.

 So he took the teacup on the red sandalwood table and started to drink.

Shang Ji could not help but look at Du Jingyi through the warmth of the candlelight.

It would be a bit false to say that he has an unforgettable admiration for Du Jingyi at this moment, but it does not prevent him from being a little moved.

 In the past, he felt that the back house was a weird place that ate people without spitting out their bones, so he was unwilling to come back to live there.

Basically, I grew up in the military camp with my maternal grandfather’s family.

 But now, he doesn’t know why.

Every time after I finish doing something, I always want to come back and talk to her. Even like this, it is good to just sit quietly for a while.

 But after being gentle, he was still a little sober in his heart, so he said to Du Jingyi.

"I have to rush back to the camp tonight. The soldiers will train tomorrow. It won't be appropriate for me to be away. You can arrange it early."

 His words made Du Jingyi's face turn slightly red.

 But he quickly adjusted and replied in a virtuous manner.

 “When a man is established in the world, he should put his family and country first. A general loves his soldiers, and I know this.”

Seeing her answer like this, Shang Ji couldn't tell whether he should be happy or a little angry for a moment.

In the past, my grandfather and uncles often stayed in the army.

 But he had also heard several times that his grandmother and aunts were having temper tantrums and acting out of temper.

For Du Jingyi to be so calm, I don't know if he is really virtuous to the core, or if he doesn't care much about him.

Thinking about this, Shang Ji, who had always been confident, became a little uncertain.

 But Luo Yuan and others were still waiting outside, so he naturally had to leave.

 Getting up and getting ready to go out, Du Jingyi naturally followed him and got down from the kang to see him off.

When he reached the door, he stopped again, turned around and said to Du Jingyi.

"After nineteen, I can rest for three days, but where do I want to go? How about I accompany you back to your parents' house for a meal?"

 “Is what the general said true?”

"a man of his words."

"Okay, last time I said I wanted to send Sister some tire repair stuff, but I never found a chance. In that case, let's take it with us when we go back. I have to let Lu Jue catch up on the work first. Only small clothes can be made."

Shang Ji looked at her suddenly becoming excited and charming, and felt happy in his heart.

 For some reason, he always felt that his wife was one person in the Du family and another person in the Duke's mansion. If he hadn't seen her liveliness and agility in the Du family, Shang Ji would have thought that his wife was a lady trained according to the rules of a noble family.

 Behave appropriately, be calm and generous, and be kind to others.

 But the more this happened, the less interested Shang Ji felt.

 She is still as good as she was in the Du family, with "popularity" all over her body.

Hence, he gave a rare smile and said.

 “Then get ready and wait for me to come back.”

“Well, General, please be careful along the way. Even though it’s only autumn, it’s quite cool at night, so wear more clothes.”

 After the words were spoken, Du Jingyi felt stupid.

The wind and sand in Cezhou is much greater than that in Sui'an City. Since he can live there for so many years, he can just play with the wind in Ancheng and don't need to worry about it.

　　But after hearing this, Shang Ji smiled and even said it jokingly.

 “Thank you for your concern, madam, I will pay attention to it.”

Then he opened the door, gave some instructions to Yingying and Lizhu who were guarding the door, and left in a hurry.

Du Jingyi watched his tall figure go further and further away, and for the first time, he felt that this husband was not bad after all.

 Have a good night's sleep.

Because he was going back to his parents’ home in a few days, Du Jingyi was smiling in his sleep.

 Having a good sleep means she is naturally in good spirits, so she woke up early in the morning.

Looking at the bright sky outside, I called out to the cherries outside.

Cherry heard the movement and walked in, saying with some surprise.

"Young lady, are you awake? I thought you wanted to sleep a little longer."

Yesterday, I was very tired. Not to mention Du Jingyi, even Tao Tao and the others felt that their feet were swollen and painful.

According to the temperament of their young ladies, they would have to sleep until late in the evening if they didn't talk much.

 But it’s just now, are you planning to get up now?

“Well, I slept well last night, but now I feel that I have endless energy. Let’s have breakfast first.”

 “Okay, I’ll help you groom yourself.”

As he spoke, Yingtao helped Du Jingyi stay down.

I don’t think I will go out today, so Du Jingyi dresses very homely.

On her head was a Su jade hairpin that she usually wore, which looked very ordinary.

 But the more ordinary she is, the more touching her already beautiful face is.

 After washing up, Du Jingyi said to Cherry.

“I haven’t been to the garden for several days. Let’s go and see what we’re going to eat today.”

"good."

 After speaking, the master and the servant headed towards the small kitchen and vegetable patch at the back.

 It was a bit cool when I woke up early, and the dewdrops were hanging on the vegetable leaves, showing full of vitality.

 Looking at the green and watery vegetable fields that had not been seen for a few days, Du Jingyi felt happy.

 Danruo, who was still busy in the small kitchen, saw his young lady approaching. After saying a few words to the cook, he wiped the water on his hands and came out to salute.

“I have seen the young lady, why are you here so early?”

“I can’t sleep, thinking about your craftsmanship and these little melons~”

Hearing her joking, Danruo also laughed.

 Then he pointed to the ripe winter melons in the field and said.

"Okay, then for lunch, the slave will prepare a winter melon soup for the young lady. Wild rice is also good. Cut it into shreds and stir-fry some meat. It will also go well with rice."
