Step-room, she is soft and charming

Chapter 116 Gu Menqi

After hearing what she said, Du Jingyi glanced at Mrs. Xing with a little discernment, and then replied with a smile.

"The masters were invited from Suzhou, and the general's mansion will be arranged for them to take care of in the future."

"No wonder, the gardens are handsome, and the one in Suzhou is the most outstanding. Naturally, the craftsmanship of the masters there is not bad."

After talking, I arrived at the flower hall.

After being seated, Du Jingyi asked Mama Cai to bring tea and pastries.

They all just had a meal, so they are naturally not hungry.

It's just something that the whole family sits together and gossips about.

Seeing that everyone was sitting still, Xueniang finally couldn't help asking.

"Brother Six, what's going on up front? When we were having dinner, we saw Mother Jiao rushing in, and after we said a few words, Mrs. Wei's face collapsed, and then Fourth Sister-in-law left with Mother Jiao. , didn’t show up until Princess Yuehua left, it doesn’t seem like something they can do together.”

With a figure like Princess Yuehua holding her, how could a spirit like Fourth Sister-in-law be willing to leave.

Even if he left, he would deal with the matter as quickly as possible and come back to continue fawning on him.

How could it be gone forever.

Hearing this, Shang Ji didn't raise his eyebrows.

Instead, Xing Zhao next to him explained excitedly.

"Wei Jiaheng gave Shang Zhihe a slingshot, and the son of Prince Fu was accidentally beaten in the leg when he entered the mansion. He felt that Shang Zhihe did it, so he stepped forward and broke Shang Zhihe's leg."

"what?"

Xue Niang looked at Xing Zhao in disbelief, obviously unable to adapt to the news.

Du Jingyi was a little puzzled, so he asked a question.

"Really broken?"

"Ah."

Shang Ji nodded in response, and Du Jingyi believed it.

Then she glanced at Xing Zhao, with suspicion in her eyes.

The corner of Shang Ji's mouth twitched, as expected, his wife's mind was spinning faster.

He didn't even open his mouth, so he guessed seven or eight points right.

Mrs. Xing was also well aware of her son's nature, so she glanced at him sideways, with suspicion in her eyes, but she didn't say much.

Those present, those who understand understand it, and those who don't understand will naturally not notice it.

So Xue Niang sighed.

"It's also because of his bad luck that he offended the great Buddha, Prince Fu's son."

Calling him a great Buddha is to give him face, otherwise, calling him a Yaksha is more or less the same.

Everyone didn't have much affection for Shang Zhihe, so when they heard that their leg was broken, their first reaction was pain, and then it was nothing.

The broken leg was Xiyuan's distress after all.

After they said a few words, they didn't ask any more questions.

Instead, Shang Ji looked at Mrs. Xing, seemingly hopeful, but asked with a worried tone.

"Auntie, grandma and aunts are all right?"

Hearing this, even Xing Zhao, who has always been optimistic, turned pale, let alone Mrs. Xing.

With a sigh, he continued.

"It's still the same. The whole family eats fast and recites Buddha's name. The whole Gu family is so quiet that you can't hear anything. I tried to persuade you a few times, but it was of no use..."

"My aunt's body is not as good as before. Although she is not as sad as some sisters-in-law, the more I hold back like this, the more worried I am."

Hearing this, Shang Ji's face darkened a lot.

When he was still at Gu's family in Jinling, there was no place full of excitement and laughter.

But since one family died for the country, everything can't go back.

Shang Ji clenched his fists with ten fingers, his whole body exuded sadness.

Du Jingyi felt it, but she didn't know where to comfort her to heal these pains.

After a moment of silence, Shang Ji finally spoke.

"When the general's mansion is repaired, I will take my grandmother and the others to live in the mansion."

No matter what, it would be somewhat comforting to have them by their side.

Hearing this, Madam Xing smiled wryly and shook her head.

"It's not that you don't know the temperament of your aunt, how could you be willing to leave Jinling City and move into your general's mansion?"

She spoke, speaking the truth.

There is the foundation of the Gu family, and there are traces of the men of the Gu family.

Asking them to abandon those things and move away from Jinling City is simply a fantasy.

"Grandma doesn't want to stay longer, but if it's for the sake of the eighth younger sister's birthday, I can stay with grandma and a few aunts for a while."

Du Jingyi mentioned something.

Shang Ji took a look at her and felt that this method was good.

Mrs. Xing nodded her head when she heard this.

"Let's go and have a look. Maybe my aunt and some sisters-in-law are willing to go north."

After hearing this, Xue Niang volunteered.

"Let me write this letter. Grandma has always loved me, so she will definitely come."

This is true, ever since Mrs. Gu died of illness, Mrs. Gu has entrusted her love for her daughter to her granddaughter.

Therefore, if Xue Niang wrote a letter, maybe she would be able to invite her old man here.

It's just that the journey was exhausting, and I don't know if a few people can bear it.

So Xing Zhao mentioned something.

"If grandma wants to go north, then I will pick them up. Anyway, I know both places very well. I will definitely bring them here safely for at least one month."

Shang Ji has official duties and cannot leave Suian City at will.

Therefore, Xing Zhao's words solved his difficulties.

Du Jingyi glanced at Xing Zhao, and then at Shang Zhiping.

I have to say, it's really God's own arrangement.

A few days ago, they were still worried about the "Master", but no, the people who came to the door were not in vain.

However, this matter was only discussed in private by the couple, and has not yet been formally discussed with the sister-in-law.

Anyway, it will take some time to deliver the letter now and then to receive it.

Take your time and don't rush this moment.

After solving this problem, Shang Ji thought about asking Mrs. Xing about their purpose of going north.

The mother and son said that they had something to deal with at home, but they hadn't asked what it was.

There were too many people just now, so it was not easy to follow up and ask.

Now that only their family is here, he naturally wants to know.

"Auntie is going north this time, is there something urgent to do?"

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xing was just like Xing Zhao, just laughing and saying nothing.

"Hey, it's just to deal with some housework. It doesn't matter. If there is any trouble, I will definitely come to you. Don't worry."

Seeing this, Shang Ji knew that this matter would not be easy.

Even the family members have to hide, either it is related to the royal family, or it is related to the secrets of the family house.

Shang Ji understood, Du Jingyi naturally understood too.

Sister-in-law Liu is not stupid either, she understands most of it.

Only Shang Zhiping and Xueniang who were present were still enjoying themselves, being amused by Xing Zhao.

The two of them hadn't been this happy in a long time.

Listening to this long-lost laughter, Shang Ji, Du Jingyi and his wife saw some tranquility before the storm from Mrs. Xing's unwilling eyes.
