My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Wei Jialian wants to rise to power?

This reaction quickly popped into Du Jingyi's mind.

But who among the people present could make her let go of this idea, but Du Jingyi was a little puzzled.

But that’s how people are, the more impossible something seems, the more likely it will happen.

Especially when she stood next to Princess Fu, Du Jingyi felt for a moment that the two of them seemed to look more and more alike, although they were originally cousins, so there was no harm in being a little bit similar.

But in Du Jingyi's eyes, this look is much more powerful than his appearance.

I couldn't help but sneer in my heart, a good girl's family didn't want to lead to the right path, so they insisted on causing such things. It seemed that the Wei family took too many shortcuts and forgot that not everyone in this world has the heart to tolerate such crooked ways.

So, I planned to talk to my husband Shang Ji about this matter.

If the Wei family does have some thoughts that they shouldn't have, I'm afraid they'd better take precautions in advance!

Not long after the inner hall's attention was focused on the imperial concubine, there were other reasons.

When new people arrive, it is natural that they should be the main ones.

The Seventh Prince is in high spirits. Although Miss Zhao is covered with a hijab, it can be seen that a lot of thought has been put into her wedding dress. Therefore, although her true appearance is not visible, the attitude of the Zhao family can be seen from her clothing.

The seventh prince's concubine can be considered a high-ranking member of the Zhao family.

After all, as a young lady of the Zhao family, entering the palace means that she can start as a beauty, and she is not qualified even for nobles.

If it hadn't been for the efforts of the seventh prince and the noble concubine, she might not have become the seventh prince's concubine.

But before there is a main concubine, establishing a side concubine first, or a side concubine that makes such a big fuss, will not be good for the seventh prince's future marriage.

Coupled with the ability of the Zhao family, the imperial concubine and the fourth prince agreed to this marriage.

The newlyweds kneel down to the heaven and earth, worship in the high hall, then the husband and wife bow to each other, and then the ceremony is completed.

During the process, the guests watching the excitement pushed the atmosphere to a climax with festive words. The imperial concubine couldn't help crying when she saw her son getting married, which also caused a commotion in the room.

The two old ladies Guo and Gu looked on with cold eyes. Although they did not say anything, they did not like the concubine's behavior from the bottom of her heart.

The banquet was noisy until the evening, but both the Guo and Gu families used the old lady's unwellness as an excuse, ate a little at the banquet and left the Seventh Prince's Mansion together.

They were supposed to go back to their respective homes, but Mrs. Guo didn't follow common sense and came right after Mrs. Gu's carriage.

Go straight up and then hang on and won't leave.

I'm going to my house to see Brother Tai. I haven't seen him for a while. I miss him a lot.

Okay, okay, let's go.

As a result, the Guo family's carriages and horses followed the Gu family's and returned to the General's Mansion. There were six or seven of them, which seemed to attract the attention of the people.

On the way back, Du Jingyi sat quietly, listening to Mrs. Guo's gossip.

It's so funny. Have you seen the wedding ceremony of the seventh prince today? The prince only travels by carriage and horse, but he is very bold today. Our majesty really dotes on the imperial concubine very much. He also follows the rules and etiquette. I don’t care about status matters.

Mrs. Gu patted the back of her hand, knowing that she was feeling aggrieved for her daughter, Queen Guo, so she spoke consolingly.

Relax your mind, it's just to save face today. If in normal times, the princes dare to go beyond the rules like this, they will have their own advice from the officials.

Even though she said this, Mrs. Guo was still unhappy.

I dress up like a lady every day and don't waste time, but secretly I don't do everything to the best of my ability, which gives others a bad reputation.

The person she was talking about was nothing more than the imperial concubine.

Du Jingyi also believed in this statement.

How could someone who could survive in the harem, raise two princes, and vaguely be on equal footing with the prince be an ordinary person?

It's just that the world is always willing to believe appearances, and whoever looks charming seems to be able to bully the strong with the weak.

The carriage and horses arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion not long after.

After everyone came down, there was no more nonsense about this matter, especially Mrs. Guo, who seemed to be a different person. She no longer complained, but her heart and eyes were full of happiness.

Du Jingyi sighed secretly in his heart. The more senior and powerful a person is, he cannot even have his temper or expression as he pleases. He must be careful at all times to prevent outsiders from getting a hold of him.

After entering the door, we entered the main room of Xitang Courtyard.

I happened to meet Wet Nurse and Brother Tai who were watching the sunset in the yard.

The sunsets these days are as red as fire and as bright as lotus. They are very beautiful, so Brother Tai also likes them very much. He always dances when he sees them.

He is almost four months old now, so he can sit still for a while relying on his wet nurse.

Originally, he was concentrating on looking at the colorful clouds in the sky, but when he suddenly saw Mrs. Gu and Du Jingyi coming back, she reached out to hug her.

Mrs. Guo came with her and naturally saw this scene and immediately said with a smile.

Look at this smart kid, he is here to welcome my old lady.

Mrs. Gu saw through it without saying anything, so she snickered and said something.

Yes, yes, I welcome you and like you.

One word made Mrs. Guo forget all the discomfort she had just felt at the Seventh Prince's table, and she quickly reached out to hug him.

Unfortunately, for Madam Guo, Brother Tai obviously didn't remember who he was at the moment, so he was picked up by her and hugged him in a daze.

When she came to her senses, she only struggled a little and showed no signs of crying. This made Mrs. Guo mistakenly think that the child really remembered her, so she loved her even more from the bottom of her heart.

Only Mrs. Gu and Du Jingyi knew that this brat had this expression because he was too lazy to move.

Being teased by his cute appearance really made my heart feel as comfortable as drinking honey.

Mrs. Guo sat for a while, then left with her family. When she left, she left behind two more good things.

Looking at the green jade bracelet, Du Jingyi couldn't help but sigh.

You are quite good at amassing money. If my mother doesn't have any money to spend in the future, why don't she take you out for a walk? Anyway, you are quite happy in front of these great-grandmothers and grandmothers.

I don’t know if Brother Tai understood it or not, but the two little slaps came together as if they were clapping, making everyone laugh again.

When Shang Ji came back from the Seventh Prince's Mansion, he happened to encounter this scene.

My heart felt warm, and the smell of alcohol on my body had also dissipated a little.

The general is back?

Well, I just sent the prince back to the East Palace. When I came here, I met Grandma Guo and the others.
