My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

The pity that the fourth aunt said was that she could not see what kind of weapons Tai brother liked. After all, after their family went to Jinling City, they still had to return to Sui'an City.

I don’t know when we will meet again next time, but I always feel a little reluctant to leave.

After being together for so long, Brother Tai has long become an indispensable part of her life. If they leave Jinling City next year, she doesn't know how long it will take for her to recover.

Mrs. Gu was more open-minded than she was, and then she looked at Brother Tai lovingly and said.

Cherish the days we can be together. If you look back on it in the future, you will be happy sometimes. I will always be sad for some separations in the future. Isn't it unsatisfactory at the moment?

The fourth aunt felt much better after being enlightened in this way.

My mother-in-law is right, but I think about it too much.

Brother Tai made a few ahhhh noises at the right time, which made the atmosphere lively. The fourth aunt no longer cared about these things, and focused more on accompanying Brother Tai.

It wasn't until Du Jingyi had read through all the recently delivered account books that she stretched her body.

He asked the cherry next to him.

Where's Brother Tai? Are you still playing with your grandmother and fourth aunt?

I have already returned to Xu Laiyuan. About half an hour ago, the old lady sent someone to say that if the young lady is done here, just go over and have a meal.

He raised his head and looked at the sky outside. Sure enough, it was already evening.

I haven't looked at the account book for a long time. Time flies so fast. Let's go and see if Brother Tai is causing trouble today?

Yes, young lady.

The master and the servant got up and headed to Xu Laiyuan. They happened to pass by the small garden, which was not far from the martial arts training ground. Du Jingyi said on a whim that he should go and have a look.

On the martial arts training ground, Li Zhu was giving orders with a serious look on his face.

Those candidates were all selected by Aunt Dou, Housekeeper He and Fourth Aunt. They were either very intelligent people or had some foundation, so it was not difficult to train them.

Li Zhu had Liu Xun's guidance before him, and then his fourth aunt taught her everything. Now he is considered to be quite capable. It would be an exaggeration to say that he is going to kill enemies on the battlefield now, but if he is to teach these women, it is more than enough. .

The two stood watching from a distance without disturbing them.

Du Jingyi looked pleased, while Cherry next to him sighed with emotion.

When I first entered the house, I thought Li Zhu was a lovely little sister. Now she can take charge of her own business. It's great.

When Cherry's words fell into Du Jingyi's ears, he was filled with emotion.

The four of you have grown up with me, especially you. When you stay with me every day, you are just like my good sisters. Now Li Zhu has a future that she can run in the future, what about you? Have you ever considered whether there is anything you like or want to do?

Cherry shook her head and said with a satisfied look.

Being with the young lady is what I like most and what I want to do most. Don't even think about sending me away, I won't leave!

When she said this, she still had a playful tone.

In fact, Du Jingyi didn't want her to leave. He had been accustomed to having her by his side for so many years, but now that he was living a smooth life, he inevitably wanted to make her live a comfortable life, so he naturally came up with the idea.

Then how about I look for someone in the house for you?

Young Madam, why did you suddenly talk about this?

Cherry's face was a little red. Although she had seen the young lady go through human affairs, it was inevitably a little early when it was her turn, so Du Jingyi's opening made her feel a little embarrassed.

It's not sudden. It's just that the general said that there are many young and promising people in the army who have not yet started a family. If there are good people, they always want to find someone who can live a harmonious life. No, I just want to ask Let me ask you, do you have someone you like?

Du Jingyi actually meant something, but Yingtao was open-minded in his heart.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said.

No, I'm busy serving the young lady every day. How can I pay attention to these things? Besides, those promising young generals are more than enough to match the ladies of the official family. Why do you want to find a girl like this? It's wrong for you to be in a bad family, and neither is this slave. I’m willing to come and be my concubine, so I’d better forget it.”

Cherry has never had any intention of trying to outdo others, even when she first knew she would join the Duke's Mansion. She always told herself that she was determined not to have anything to do with the nobles in the Duke's Mansion.

Firstly, she is not interested in being a concubine, and secondly, she is not interested in reaching high places.

If possible, she would still like to find an ordinary steward or servant who has a simpler family and who is more diligent and progressive. It would be best if he could serve the young lady in the house after getting married.

So, I really haven’t considered it.

Du Jingyi saw that she was serious and couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

Vice General Luo, what do you think?

Ah? Young Madam, are you joking? How can he, a great general who has prospered the dynasty, marry a girl like me as his wife? Young Madam, it's better not to mess with the couple. Vice General Luo won't like a slave. Of course, My slave doesn’t think he is a good match either.”

How could it be? Isn't Vice-General Luo a very good person?

That's probably for the young lady and the general, but the slave doesn't have much of a good impression of him, and presumably he treats the slave the same, so you'd better not think too much, otherwise the slave will have to avoid things when he is on duty.

Seeing how serious she said it, Du Jingyi began to wonder if he had gone astray.

Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore. Since you don't have a chance, forget it. Let's wait and see. Anyway, we have to go to Jinling City in a few days. Maybe we will meet someone suitable again.

Cherry smiled, nodded, and said nothing else.

The master and servant walked slowly towards Xu Laiyuan, and Luo Yuan, who was being lifted up, suddenly seemed to be unable to stop sneezing, sneezing several times in a row.

Zheng Deli, who was ambushing in anger, opened his eyes wide and said.

What are you doing, kid!

Accident, accident!

They are now lying in ambush in the forest. This forest is very dense and it is also the only way for bandits to go down the mountain to rob and return.

Their purpose of hiding here is to count how many people there are so that they can make arrangements when they return.

Therefore, what came back this time were Luo Yuan and Zheng Deli, as well as seven or eight well-trained soldiers.

Fortunately, no one passed by just now, otherwise they would have exposed their secrets.

Luo Yuan wiped his nose, looking as if Monk Zhanger was confused, wondering why he sneezed suddenly, but before he could figure it out, he saw someone coming from a distance.

All the people in ambush watched and counted with bated breath.
