Step-room, she is soft and charming

Chapter 32

Qi Erhui's appearance here was entirely by appointment.

Ever since Shang Ji said that he wanted to move out, how many pairs of eyes in the Duke's mansion have been staring at him.

Seeing that their husband and wife did not return after a late night, it was natural that someone wanted to guard them.

If you can get a handle or something, it's better to ask the three-bedroom and five-bedroom people to be tougher and find fault.

Unfortunately, Qi Er is a fool.

All of a sudden, Luo Yuan found the trace.

Fortunately, the young lady opened his mouth to help him out, and he happily climbed down the pole.

It's a pity that the words were spoken, but no one answered them.

Especially when he saw the little father-in-law Shang Ji standing with his hands behind his back without saying a word, he was sweating a lot.

Kneeling tremblingly in front of him, he begged for mercy.

"The little one is blind, he can't see the way clearly in the dark night, he ran into the general, please don't remember the villain's fault, let the little one go."

He put a high hat on Shang Ji when he came up, thinking that he could escape this disaster because of his reputation.

Unfortunately, he guessed the wrong person.

After listening to his explanation, Shang Ji only gave a faint "oh", and then said to Luo Yuan.

"Since you're blind, it's not intentional. It's fine to hit with fifty military sticks."

"Yes!"

As soon as Luo Yuan heard about the Fifty Army Sticks, there was some coldness in his eyes.

Seeing that, Qi Er's scalp became numb all of a sudden.

Immediately begged my father to tell my grandma.

"I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong, so I ask the general to be merciful."

Only at this time did he understand that some people can be messed with, and some people can't be messed with.

Thinking of the cowardly masters who lived in Dongyuan in the past, he thought that the general was just famous.

Unexpectedly, opening the mouth was a deadly move.

It's a pity that Luo Yuan covered his mouth and nose and dragged him away before his cries could be heard far away.

When the four maids who accompanied Du Jingyi back home and Mama Cai saw each other, they were all terrified to death.

They were in the back house, bickering and making troubles.

If he is so powerful, he will be fifty army sticks. It seems that the second steward of Qi is either dead or severely disabled.

So he swallowed his saliva, and secretly reminded him that he must be more careful when he is on duty in the future, otherwise, they might be the next ones to be punished by military discipline.

Luo Yuan dragged the man outside to beat them, but naturally they didn't hear anything.

Under the moonlight, the couple walked side by side towards Xitang Courtyard.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Du Jingyi, who was thinking of consummating the house at first, was disturbed by this incident and felt a little lingering fear.

Shang Ji didn't speak until he entered the gate of the courtyard.

"Go back and rest early."

Then he turned around and walked towards the study.

Mama Cai next to her didn't know where her courage came from, and she suddenly raised her neck.

"General, the study room is not easy to live in if it is more exposed. Otherwise, it's better to go back to the main room to rest."

God knows what kind of determination she expressed when she said this, but Madam didn't forget her repeated entrustment before.

Anyway, sooner or later we want to be together, isn't today just right?
Hearing Mama Cai's words, Du Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief.

If she was really asked to mention it, she really didn't know how to speak.

Shang Ji didn't speak, but only looked at Du Jingyi.

That meaning couldn't be more clear.

If Du Jingyi also asked him to stay, he would naturally stay.

After waiting for a while and seeing that Du Jingyi didn't speak, Shang Ji understood in his heart.

He didn't intend to force it, just when he was about to speak.

I heard Du Jingyi say softly.

"Going home today, I'm happy physically and mentally. If the general is fine, can you do me a favor and drink two cups with me? Let Dan Ruo cook a few side dishes, it's also good to fill my stomach."

After saying this, Shang Ji was also taken aback for a moment.

But by accident, he just said, "OK".

At this point, no one else is more excited than the four maids and Mama Cai.

Said right away.

"Slaves, let's cook some of the general's favorite dishes."

"The servant girl is going to get the wine."

"The servant girl went to fetch hot water to serve the general and young lady to wash up."

They all had their own places, but Du Jingyi and Shang Ji stood there awkwardly.

"Let's go."

"Yes."

Both of them were in the corridor, but after a few steps, they entered the main room.

This is the third time Shang Ji entered the main house.

It feels different from the previous two times.

After receiving the veil handed over by the servant girl Cherry, she washed her hands, and the simple copper basin for cleaning hands seemed to be engraved with crabapple flowers.

The Du family's dowry is really a solid piece that declares who its master is.

And he, the original owner of the house, seemed to be a guest at this moment.

Soon, food and wine were on the table.

Shang Ji wasn't hungry at first, but when he saw the dishes on this table, he felt a little craving to eat.

It can be seen that Dan Ruo's craftsmanship is not bad.

While eating, Du Jingyi realized that there was no one in the room.

On the contrary, you can see what is spread on the bed through the Suzhou embroidered screen.

After a pause, he filled two glasses of wine.

Lifting one of the cups, he said to Shang Ji.

"Today's late return is because my concubine has overstepped the rules. I should pay attention next time. This glass of wine is an apology to the general."

Then I drank it all in one gulp, without any muddy water.

Shang Ji frowned and looked at her, as if he didn't understand why she did this.

After a while, he explained.

"If you're concerned about this, you don't need to worry. I don't think it took a day or two to clean up Beiyuan, so Qi Er just happened to bump into him."

Although he intended to let the other servants understand who the master of the mansion is through the stick and blame Qi Er.

But more or less there is also the idea of ​​telling him to shut up and stop talking nonsense.

I just said this because I was afraid that my wife, Du Jingyi, would worry about it.

Du Jingyi is not stupid, she naturally understands what her husband Shang Ji means.

So he filled another glass and continued talking.

"I want to thank the general for returning home to offer tea today. Since ancient times, the identity of a merchant has never been on the stage, but you still gave my parents enough face. I will toast again."

As he spoke, he drank another glass, his face not red and his heart beating.

Shang Ji picked up the cup and got up, and he smelled it was Nurhong.

So what Du Jingyi meant, he already fully understood at this moment.

There is an unwritten rule in the Daxing Dynasty.

If a family gave birth to a daughter, it would seal the altar and bury it deep in the ground.

Wait until the day of marriage and then open it in advance, and bring it into the husband-in-law's home.

If you can drink this wine on the wedding night in the bridal chamber, it means that the husband and wife are harmonious and the life will be smooth.

Three years ago, he did not drink this glass of wine.

But now, the wine was on the table, and my wife had already drank two glasses.

Shang Ji's eyes deepened, and then he picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

　Let's just say that the next chapter is closed in a small dark room... Hey, I wanted to show my sisters a favor~ I stopped the fire...
