My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Chapter 295 Determining and Suppressing the Bandits

Her words comforted Shang Ji a lot.

He naturally understood Du Jingyi's intentions, so he held her in his arms and said nothing more.

In the days that followed, Shang Ji always asked her thoughtfully if she would have a letter from the next month.

He would ask questions three or two times a day, which made Du Jingyi feel that he was a little too anxious, but he was more calm.

It wasn't until the seventh day, when Du Jingyi really came to Yuexin, that Shang Ji let out a sigh of relief.

Then I started to make calculations based on the book, and remembered the days when I could have sex but couldn't conceive.

Afterwards, although the two of them had their moments of mischief, they spent the whole time peacefully.

The autumn rain has fallen, and it is the season of harvest for all things.

At this time last year, Du Jingyi was still worried about her situation in the Duke's Mansion. Who knew that now she would become the envy of everyone.

The elders care about her, the couple is loving, and the son is smart and well-behaved.

When I woke up from my nap again, I saw my husband lying quietly beside me. For a moment, I felt like the tranquility of the years had passed.

If Madam keeps reading, I'm afraid her husband will blush.

His abrupt words made Du Jingyi embarrassed for a moment, and then he gave him a gentle hammer and said.

Why didn't the general say anything when he woke up?

Isn't this the moment when Mrs. Greed covets my beauty? How about it, are you satisfied with what you see?

Du Jingyi opened his mouth slightly and then said.

General, where did you learn these check-box sentences? They were never so improper before!

Shang Ji smiled, held her in his arms and said.

Aren't you going to go back to Jinling City in a few days? I agreed with His Majesty when I resigned that I would arrange everything for the Tiger and Ben Army in the next two months, so I guess I won't have much time to come back, so I’ll say something to make you happy first, and then I’ll tell you the news, and you might feel better.”

The couple had basically never been apart since last year, so if Shang Ji didn't come home for two months, Du Jingyi would be a little upset.

Can't you come back even for a moment?

Probably, because His Majesty arranged for me to take my brothers from the Tiger Army to the surrounding mountains to suppress bandits, so...

Suppressing bandits? Isn't this a matter of the City Defense Department? How could it fall on the Hu Ben Army?

The division of military duties in the Daxing Dynasty is still very clear. The Gyeonggi Division is responsible for all security activities within the city, the City Defense Division is responsible for all security activities outside the city, and the Huben Army is mainly responsible for marching, fighting, and defending the city when necessary.

Using the Tiger and Ben troops to suppress bandits is honestly overkill.

After all, the bandits these days are just dozens or hundreds of people gathering here to mess around for a few days. They are not good at equipment or strategies.

Shang Ji smiled and said.

When I was resigning that day, I happened to meet His Majesty and cursed the commander of the City Defense Department for being unable to deal with even the mountain bandits. Therefore, this task fell on me.

After hearing this, Du Jingyi could only sigh and said.

Then general you have to be more careful.

I know, it won't take half a month, and it will be sorted out properly.

Du Jingyi still knew Shang Ji's abilities, so he didn't give too many instructions.

After having dinner with his family, Shang Ji left with his personal guards.

After leaving, we would not see each other for more than a month at least. Du Jingyi felt a little bit reluctant to let go, but no matter how much reluctance he had in front of his family and country, he could only endure it. This was the helplessness they had as the family members of military commanders.

Mrs. Gu saw the worry in her eyes and said comfortingly.

Those who are marching and fighting cannot stay at home and live such a comfortable life every day. You must also learn to deal with yourself, otherwise there will be more times like this in the future.

Thank you grandma for your comfort. My granddaughter-in-law knows.

The autumn rain fell continuously, and everything seemed to be back to the past.

However, what is different from last year is that Du Jingyi has a little Dou Ding beside him. With Brother Tai accompanying him, the days are not difficult, and September has entered in the blink of an eye.

Du Jingyi has been busy these days.

As the autumn harvest came to fruition, it was natural to have to deliver account books everywhere, so Du Jingyi didn't have that much time to spend with his son. Mrs. Gu and her fourth aunt took the initiative to take on this responsibility, taking Brother Tai to play in the yard every day.

Fortunately, the courtyard of the General's Mansion is big enough. Today we can look at the fish and tomorrow we can enjoy the maples. Even if we don't go out, it will take us several days to see all the scenery in the General's Mansion.

Therefore, they are not worried.

And Tai Geer also grew up rapidly in these flowing days, from a meatball who could only rely on others to sit up, to a meatball who can sit independently and likes to dance.

In the afternoon that day, Mrs. Gu took Brother Tai to sit and play in the garden in the back mountain after he woke up.

The pavilion here stands high, overlooking the beautiful scenery of the entire back mountain, and there is a pond in front of it, which also has some rice field fish. It is not very ornamental, but the taste is excellent.

Brother Tai is worthy of being Du Jingyi's son. He has become very naughty since he started taking complementary foods. His favorite is the fish porridge made from the rice field fish. Not only does it taste sweet, but it is also very nourishing.

After adding complementary food, Tiger's hands and feet gradually became stronger.

The fourth aunt asked someone to order a hollow wooden knife specially for Brother Tai to play with. It was much lighter in weight. Originally, he was just allowed to hold the harp for a while, but who would have thought that after playing with it for a short while, he would have no idea how to play with it. Tong started to play.

That look and those moves made my fourth aunt extremely happy.

Because when Shiro Gu was still alive, he ruled the world with a big sword, so when he saw Brother Tai behave like this, he felt quite comforted in his heart, as if he was as happy as seeing his husband reincarnated.

If your mother sees it, she will say that the fourth grandmother is fooling around. So, while she is not here, chop her a few more times.

After hearing this, Brother Tai seemed to understand something. He held the wooden knife and chopped here and there. It was very interesting.

It made Mrs. Gu laugh non-stop, and the sister-in-law Liu on the side also said lively.

Why don't we make a set of these eighteen martial arts swords, guns, swords and halberds for Brother Tai? Let this boy choose what he likes and study in the future.

Her proposal made Mrs. Gu and Fourth Aunt's eyes light up and they thought it was very good.

So the fourth aunt stepped forward without hesitation and spoke.

This is simple. I'll find someone to make it. It's just that this set of swords, guns, swords and halberds won't be ready in two months. I can only wait until they return from Jinling City to get them. Oh, it's a pity.

I don’t know if it’s due to the weather or the raging virus. There have been a lot of illnesses in my family recently. I’m the worst offender. I’ve been sick for less than half a month. Taking medicine is basically useless. I rely on injections to relieve the symptoms, so I’ll update. I'm relatively unsure. After coding this chapter, I'm going to the hospital again. I'll continue writing when I get back. Sorry, sisters, when I get better, I will adjust the time and return to the previous early morning updates. At the same time We will also provide more benefits for everyone, sorry again!
