Step-room, she is soft and charming

Chapter 26

When the Du family and his wife returned to Minse Courtyard, their complexions did not improve much.

Mrs. Du managed to get rid of those pretending relatives, so naturally she still had nowhere to vent her anger towards Mr. Du.

As soon as he entered the door, he said viciously.

"Hmph, you know how to push me forward to be the vanguard of a fool, you hide behind and use dirty tricks!"

Master Du can bend and stretch, especially in front of his wife.

In a hurry, I sent the teacup up.

"Madam calm down, drink some tea to moisten your throat first. It's been a hard day, but it's just this one time. Our little father-in-law and son-in-law will win and return to court. Let's see if they dare to make mistakes like these timid ones! "

He would fool around, and Mrs. Du felt at ease when she heard this.

Instead, the maid Cui An couldn't help laughing.

Madam Du immediately turned her eyebrows coldly.

"What? Isn't what the master said right?"

"Madam calm down, the master is wise and powerful, and the lady is virtuous and generous. Our Du family can have today's momentum, it all depends on you two. The slaves laughed, laughing at those people who have nothing to fetch water from the bamboo basket."

After Madam Du heard this, her anger became much calmer.

"That's right! Every day I don't think about making progress, I just think about how to get ahead first, just because I didn't give birth to a son for your Du family, how many stumbling blocks have been caused by these old things on the surface and in private!"

Then he snorted again, and glanced at Master Du who was sitting next to him.

Master Du immediately swore to the sky.

"Madam, don't worry! Even if they send a fairy, I will never take a second look."

Seeing the sincerity of her husband and son-in-law, Mrs. Du benefited a lot.

Over the years, those uneasy relatives of the Du family, those who sent good concubines, came several times a year to persuade them to reconcile and leave.

It's just that Mr. Du's iron bucket is hard to break, so he put his idea on her two daughters.

First, they asked them to recognize Du Jingxian, the fourth wife, as their heir to inherit the incense.

After being sternly rejected by Master Du, he brought out the threat that unmarried daughters would not be allowed to share their property.

It turned out that when Du Jingyi was only thirteen or fourteen years old, several well-matched families wanted to come and get engaged, but he was disturbed by these top-notch relatives.

Later, Mr. Du said that he wanted to recruit a son-in-law, and the whole family was even more troubled.

Those who knew that the Du family was going to visit their son-in-law, but those who didn't know thought that the Du family was the place where the life-threatening ghosts lived.

Whoever sticks to it is unlucky!

The coming and going, naturally dragged on for a long time.

Seeing that Du Jingyi has been married to Ji for several months, and no good marriage has happened to her, how can the couple not be in a hurry!
Obviously enough has been given to them over the years, but the hearts of the people are still not enough.

Mrs. Du was angry, so Master Du was naturally unhappy.

Unexpectedly, when he fell asleep and bumped into the pillow, he was also worried about the little prince's marriage when he met the grandpa.

It just so happened that there were rumors of "hard life" they created for their daughter.

Sure enough, the Duke and Mrs. Guo came to discuss the marriage in person.

And all of this made the Du family and his wife feel scared.

If they were not so lucky to meet this marriage, wouldn't it be that their daughter Du Jingyi would die of old age in the boudoir all her life, and she would get angry when she thought of this.

Then asked.

"Where are the second lady and uncle?"

"Go back to madam, it's in Jianliuyuan."

Jianliu Courtyard was the courtyard where Du Jingyi lived before she got married.

She went back home and took her husband and son-in-law to have a look in the yard where they lived in the past, and she should.

Hearing this, Madam Du suppressed her anger, and gave instructions instead.

"Call someone to call them. It's time to have lunch. After eating, let's go back to the Duke's mansion quickly, so as not to stay here and meet that shameless screwdriver and add to the joke."

"Yes, I will ask someone to invite you, servant girl."

In Mingse courtyard, Master Du was still coaxing Mrs. Du in a good voice.

In Jianliu Courtyard, which is not too far apart, Shang Ji and Du Jingyi's couple have separate rooms, each with their own ideas.

Du Jingyi just returned to the yard, and said that she was not feeling well, and wanted to rest.

Shang Ji glanced sideways at the simple box, and knew that she had something to deal with.

Speaking of it, it was only the third day that the two met.

Even if he couldn't confide in himself, he naturally wouldn't ask Du Jingyi to do so.

So, he nodded and went to the left room to rest.

In the main house, after Du Jingyi closed the doors and windows, he immediately asked the servant girl Cherry to open the box.

Sure enough, there were several thick books inside.

However, the word "Du" was not marked on it. Instead, it recorded a lot of family property about a wealthy businessman with a surname of Yiyan.

Densely packed, one pile after another.

Others only know that the Du family is a wealthy family, but in Suian City, which merchants who can stand on their feet are not rich?

Therefore, outsiders don't know how much money the Du family has.

All I know is that the Du family has a lot of ostentation in marrying a daughter, and the Du couple are also very generous.

But only Du Jingyi knew that what was contained in this box was not only the family property saved over the years, but also the way out for the Du family in the future.

Now that there are two emperors in the Daxing Li Dynasty, it is still calm to say the least.

But there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good fortune and good fortune.

Two dynasties can be changed in a few decades, and no one can tell what will happen in the future.

Therefore, apart from the Du family and his wife, only Du Jingyi knows the secrets hidden in this box.

What happened many years ago is so vivid.

At that time, Du Jingyi was only four or five years old, and the abacus in his hand was already very clear.

When Master Du held her in his arms and looked at the ledger, he also taught her little by little.

Therefore, Du Jingyi's ability to read did not come from poems, books and Fu, but was taught by Mr. Du with the account book.

Who made her show a very talented business mind since she was a child.

Therefore, Master Du cultivated it carefully.

Just as Master Du was still grinning from ear to ear at the fact that he had gained another 120 million taels of profit this year.

Du Jingyi asked curiously, tilting her small head.

"Daddy, if someone knows that our family is a fat pig and a strong sheep, will someone use a knife to bleed?"

The words of a childish girl should not be true.

However, Mrs. Du, who was next to her, realized the truth of "to be rich is to hide".

At that time, when the two dynasties were overlapping, it was natural that a lot of wealth was accumulated on the surface and in the dark.

The couple were obviously a little bit adrift.

Fortunately, the daughter's childish words woke them up from their sweet dreams.

In times of turmoil, the most important thing is to hide your clumsiness.

Who knows if it will be beautiful today, but yellow flowers tomorrow.

So after Du Jingyi "reminded" this sentence, the Du couple started to build the plank road openly, and went secretly.

A full 13 years.

The two of them fabricated the name "Yan Zhiqing" out of thin air, and gradually established this signboard in Jinling City.

Not only that, but also eighty to ninety percent of the wealth in his hands fell on him without a trace.
