My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

What the sister-in-law said was true, and Du Jingyi also felt it made sense.

At least, the most important thing is that Yunjinyuan can no longer be the mainstay in the Duke's Mansion, otherwise it will make people like them feel useless.

Sister-in-law, don't worry. When I get back, I'll tell Butler He and Aunt Dou that if nothing happens these days, I'll ask them to come over and help. Everything else is just a small matter. This manpower must be fully prepared, otherwise the huge mansion will There is no life in the butt, it’s terrible to live in.”

you are right!

In a few words, the two sisters-in-law arranged everything in the house. Although the Duke's Mansion was in decline, its foundation was still good, so it was not too difficult to turn it around.

After everything was explained, Gu Shaoyu also took care of things.

Based on Shang Yukuan's current situation, it was impossible to write a divorce letter, so he wrote it himself. After writing it, he pressed the seal with his father's finger, and then had the divorce letter sent to the Ministry of Punishment for filing. .

At this point, how the Wei family will be sentenced to death is all the Wei family's business and has nothing to do with the Duke's government.

There were four people on the way here and two people on the way back.

The couple were sitting in the carriage, listening to the still lively streets outside, feeling somewhat empty in their hearts.

Now that my sister-in-law and Heping'er have left, there will be fewer people in our general's mansion. Fortunately, there are a few children here, otherwise it would be very lonely for us and my wife to live there.

Don't worry, the four boys are still young now. When they grow up to seven or eight years old and start making noises, you will be annoying them, and they may even topple the general's mansion.

Hearing this, Du Jingyi gave a rare laugh, and then heard the shouts from the wonton stall outside. Her eyes lit up, she took Gu Shaoyu's hand and said.

I haven't eaten out since I came back. General, would you like to have a bowl of wontons with me before going back?

Although she was already a mother of four children, Du Jingyi's somewhat coquettish appearance was still so endearing. Gu Shaoyu lightly scratched her nose, then took her hand and got out of the car together. Horse driving.

Liu Ji’s wonton stall is still as busy as ever.

Although Dan Ruo had already learned their cooking skills, it was rare for them to have a bowl of foreign food, and the couple was very satisfied.

After eating a bowl of hot wontons, I felt that my internal organs were relaxed.

Yingtao handed over the handkerchief to wipe Du Jingyi's mouth, and then took out something like a sugar pill and gave it to her, which made Gu Shaoyu feel a little strange.

What's this?

General, would you like to try some fresh pills made by Dan Ruo? If you put one in your mouth, it will melt in a moment. Even if you eat something with a strong taste, it can cover up a lot.

Gu Shaoyu had never heard of it, so he was very curious. He took one and tasted it. It was indeed good, so he asked.

Madam, don't you plan to sell some of these good things?

How can I say that the general understands my concubine? It was not long after Dan Ruocai made it. Now he is planning to sell it through the shops of the Du family and the Han family. However, the price is not cheap, so I'm afraid I can buy it. It also needs to be from a wealthy family.

If that's the case, then raise the price and give them a lot of money. They have plenty of money anyway, so they don't care about it. Instead, they think it's expensive.

The couple had a thorough understanding of the thoughts of these wealthy people.

After eating the wontons, they got up and went back to the general's mansion. After the two of them drove away, everyone at Liu Ji's wonton stall took a breath.

Have you heard? The former prince was hacked to death by General Gu. I heard that his head fell off. Such a person would accompany his wife to eat wontons. It's really... it's really...

What is it really?

It's really a drought that worships Yaksha. It's like seeing a ghost.

After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. However, during the national mourning period, they did not dare to be too presumptuous, so they just laughed and didn't worry about it anymore.

Whether or not they die has nothing to do with the people. As long as the people in power can allow them to live a comfortable and stable life, they don't care about power struggles.

Back at the General's Mansion, the couple saw Butler He as soon as they entered.

So Du Jingyi stopped him and then gave instructions.

Sister-in-law's place is very short of manpower. Butler He found the old lady we used before and carefully selected a batch to send over. The money came out of the account of the General's Mansion and told Sister-in-law that I would like to congratulate them on regaining control of the Duke's Mansion. Don’t shirk away the congratulatory gift.”

Yes, ma'am.

Du Jingyi calculated how much money his sister-in-law had, and he could still get a rough idea of ​​it. He just arranged the engagement for Ping'er two days ago and sent him a betrothal gift, and now he probably doesn't have much money left in his hand.

When she first arrived at the Duke's Mansion, she naturally had to give her some face. Now she tried her best to arrange everything she could, so that they could relax.

Then he said to Butler He.

Go and tell Aunt Dou that the team of mud and tiles has also been sent over. I don't know how the repairs of Dongyuan are going. If there is any shortage, let her report the balance and fill in the missing ones from here. As for the other things in the Duke's Mansion, Let the sister-in-law discuss the changes with him. If there are too many places to be changed, ask him to quote a lower price. The old rule is that the missing parts will be filled by us.

Yes, ma'am.

Du Jingyi has made arrangements for the two most expensive aspects, manpower and repairs.

Gu Shaoyu was listening nearby and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and said.

Madam, you are really arrogant. If this is an ordinary family, it would be strange for the sisters-in-law to have a lot of troubles. You are good. You have solved so many problems for my sister-in-law and you don't want to take credit. I really want to promote it to you. With this achievement, everyone in the world will know how generous my wife is!

Du Jingyi didn't want to wear the hat when it came down, so he replied jokingly.

Haoheng also needs to have money in his hands. I made a lot of money last year. It was also a gift from the general, so I should give some to help my sister-in-law. Isn't it natural?

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu was a little confused.

What's the meaning?

I calculated last year's harvest and found that Cezhou accounted for 30% of the profits. Uncle Han said he wanted to thank me for helping his family win the title of Royal Merchant, and he gave me a lot of good things with a wave of his hand. Here comes another windfall, so in total, even after spending all this, I still made a small profit.

I see.

Gu Shaoyu didn't understand the dealings and intrigues of this merchant, so he took whatever the wife said was what it was, and these things were obtained in a serious manner, and no one would say anything if they knew about it, so he was also happy.
