MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 63 Bribery

Chapter 63: Bribery

"So the second sister-in-law has to hurry up. After all, opportunities wait for no one. If you miss this time, the fourth sister may not be able to marry into a certain family next time."

 When he said this, there was still some deliberate longing in his eyes.

Erlang’s wife couldn’t help but tease her after hearing this.

“It’s so good, why don’t you just marry Li?”

“Sister-in-law is laughing at me again, isn’t it? I want to get married, but I have another one in my belly. No matter how nice the people in the palace are, they won’t accept her.”

 After saying that, his hand touched his still somewhat flat belly, showing a bit of sincere love at this moment.

Erlang’s wife was a little surprised when she saw it, and then she started laughing.

"You are the luckiest among the three of us. You have a good life, a good temperament, and you marry into a good husband's family. You have a good belly. It's not enough to have two children. You are pregnant with another one. This time I want to give birth to a baby. Is it brother or sister?"

Shang Liuniang didn't feel embarrassed, so she smiled, and then continued.

"I originally thought it would be safer to have another brother, but my husband said it would be good to have a girl. She is caring to me, and he likes it too."

Seeing her looking like she had a son and everything was ready, Erlang's wife felt a little jealous beyond words.

  How else to say that people are more infuriating than others.

 Others have good family backgrounds, good character, and are good to their wives and children.

She is married to a "fool and idiot" who is not very good-looking and lives in a muddle-headed manner all day long, so it is of no use at all.

As I thought about it, Shang Liu Niang was no longer as pleasing to the eye as before.

 Shang Liu Niang is such a good person, she can naturally feel the subtle changes in the atmosphere.

 So, before Erlang’s wife could chase away the guests, she opened her mouth and said.

"I've been out for a long time, so I'd better go back first, lest my parents-in-law find out and scold me for thinking about going back to my parents' house all day long. Second sister-in-law, please pay more attention to your own health. The bird's nest I brought this time is good. It's here, you try it first, if it works well, I'll send someone to deliver it next time."

　　"Why don't you let Sixth Sister worry about it? Okay, then you should go back quickly. They are all daughter-in-laws. I understand, I understand."

 The two of them exchanged a few polite words, and then sent Shang Liu Niang away.

 The sun outside is not that bright anymore, but Erlang's wife's mood has not calmed down for a long time.

This news from Shang Liu Niang is like cooking oil in a hot pot.

 But she also needs to think carefully about how to make this matter final.

As for what he said to Shang Liu Niang, it was nothing more than excuse.

How could she, a merchant woman from a small family, find out what was going on in Prince Min's palace?

So now she is more concerned about how her fourth sister can break out of the siege and enter the palace to become a concubine?

 She is good-looking, and her temperament is well-behaved and easy to control.

 But he just has no independent opinion, so he looks very submissive.

Can such a person really catch the eye of the old prince, and can he really be sent to the prince's palace?

 She is very worried.

Even if she is sent in, can she really stand up and support her family?

  Not visible.

 But she clearly understood that if such a good thing did not happen to their third family member, they would definitely not let the fifth family member know about it.

You know, there is still a seventh mother in the fifth house who is not married.

 Eighteen years, whether it is big or small, it is not small.

 If we really want to talk about it, her beauty, age, temperament and abilities are all better than those of Si Niang.

If only they knew such a shortcut.

I'm afraid those who want to play gongs and drums will send people to the palace to occupy seats first.

 Hence, Erlang’s wife was extremely defensive.

 He ordered to Mother Qin who was waiting next to her.

“Don’t leak a single word of what Liu Niang said when she came back today, do you understand?”

“Second Young Madam, don’t worry, I understand!”

　　In Baotao Courtyard and Yingjuan Courtyard, each has his or her own evil intentions.     So these days have been peaceful and peaceful, and no big trouble has occurred.

 As the sun rises and the moon sets, there is a rare sense of peace in the Duke's Mansion.

Soon the day came to the twentieth day.

Today is a good day for Shang Ji and Du Jingyi to return to their parents' home, so Du Jingyi woke up early in the morning.

 She opened her eyes and saw her husband Shang Ji sleeping next to her.

Remembering that he came back very late last night, I couldn't help but chuckle.

Shang Ji was always the one who woke up, so she opened her eyes and looked over as soon as she moved like this.

With their eyes facing each other like this, there was some unknown and dark **** in his eyes.

The Adam's apple moved slightly, and Du Jingyi seemed to understand, and immediately raised his voice to the outside.

"Cherry, come in and wait. The general and I have to get up and wash up."

"yes."

 Her voice suppressed Shang Ji's thoughts that had just arisen.

Shang Ji lowered his voice and deliberately leaned into Du Jingyi's ear to speak.

“Madam, is this intentional?”

When the sound came out, some hot air came out, which made Du Jingyi's cheeks turn slightly red.

“General, get up quickly, don’t you want to accompany me back to your parents’ home?”

As soon as these words came out, Shang Ji also smiled foolishly.

 “If I had known it, it would have been tomorrow.”

God knows that since the last time they consummated their marriage, the two of them have never been close to each other.

 Finally got a few days off, but he had made every effort to come back and spend his free time with his wife and children.

Who would have known that my wife was already sleeping soundly when she came home last night, riding high on her horse and whipping her whip.

It would be hard for him to take action again.

 When I woke up early this morning, I wanted to be a "disciple", but I was seriously rejected.

 There is no other way, Shang Ji can only admit defeat.

 Outside the door, there were sounds one after another.

As soon as they heard this, they knew that several maids had come to fetch water to serve him, so the two of them didn't waste any time and got up immediately.

 After a brief wash, Li Zhu was dressing up Du Jingyi, while Ying Tao picked out several sets of clothes from the cabinet and placed them in front of Shang Ji.

He said respectfully.

“General, these are the clothes the young lady has arranged for you. Do you want to try them on? If there is anything inappropriate, just send them to Lu Ju to have them changed.”

 Shang Ji raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this.

 He remembered that it only took a few days to measure clothes, so how could he do it so quickly?

　　Looking back at Du Jingyi, he said in a brisk tone.

"Let me show it to the young lady. Whatever she chooses, I will wear it."

Just an ordinary word made the two maids happy.

They feel that the general and his young lady are so in love now that they even have to wear matching clothes.

Cherry walked quickly to Du Jingyi and said hurriedly.

"What will the young lady wear today? The general said that he will wear whatever you choose. Please let the young lady know clearly."

This serious attitude made Du Jingyi a little uncomfortable.

But she thought that because her husband Shang Ji was here, she couldn't always laugh with the maids, so she took a brief look and gave orders.
