Step-room, she is soft and charming

Chapter 41

Steward He frowned upon hearing this.

These people are not easy to mess with, although the young lady has been in the mansion for three years.

But on weekdays, it's really not much contact with the three-bedroom and five-bedroom in Beiyuan.

I'm afraid it's easy to ask God and it's hard to send God away.

But seeing Aunt Dou's fearless look in the face of danger, his worries were slightly lessened.

So, after struggling for a while, he said something to the fifth old man.

"Please."

The fifth old man hummed and entered the gate of Dongyuan, followed naturally by Shang Yu'an, Shang Wulang, father and son, and their family members.

Although Wulang's daughter-in-law's pregnancy is not yet visible, everyone in the Duke's House knows about it.

In case something went wrong, she could still use the stomachache to bail out the family, so she naturally wanted to follow in.

Shang Yu'an's wife, Mrs. Ni, wants to take care of her daughter-in-law's pregnancy, so she also guards her every step of the way.

As for the servants who followed, they were silently stopped outside the gate of Dongyuan.

Especially the steward Qi Er who was covered with a white cloth.

This is a corpse, and it is carried around in broad daylight without fear of causing any disaster.

So, with just one look, Steward He asked the servants who followed him to step forward and carry away the body of Steward Qi Er.

None of Wufang's servants dared to say anything.

Wulang's daughter-in-law saw it, and wanted to say something, but was blocked by Butler He who followed behind with a smile.

bluntly.

"Fifth Young Madam, you still have children in your womb, don't worry about these worthless people, besides, after all, no one's life is lost, if there is any collision, wouldn't it be troublesome?"

Goro's daughter-in-law thinks about it, and she thinks it's right.

Her child is not easy to come by, so it's better to be more careful.

So he nodded and followed everyone to the flower hall in Dongyuan.

Dongyuan is the largest and best piece of land in the entire Duke's Mansion except for the main courtyard.

It turned out that Mrs. Gu took good care of Dongyuan when she was still there.

Later, my sister-in-law Liu took over, and she also used some thought.

But with the desolation of Gu's bloodline and the rise of Mrs. Wei, it is naturally not as good as before.

For the eldest sister-in-law Liu, it is enough to live in Dongyuan.

It's better to have money in your hands, after all, son Shang Zhiping and sister-in-law Xueniang are not married yet, and there will be a lot of expenses in the future.

As for Du Jingyi, Xitang Courtyard was where she lived seriously, so she didn't care much about taking care of Dongyuan, which was passing by occasionally.

Therefore, along the way, there are not many outstanding landscapes.

But clean and elegant.

There is nothing to say about this.

In addition to the population living in Dongyuan, there are only five masters, so it is extraordinarily clean.

The people in the fifth room were secretly upset as they walked.

It's really a waste to give them this land to live in.

There are more than a dozen members of my own family, but they live in the Yingjuan courtyard which is only the size of a palm.

Even if you sneeze from the east, you can hear it from the west.

It is really uncomfortable.

But who told Dongyuan to have a named original spouse, no matter how hard they thought about it, they wouldn't be able to occupy it indiscriminately.

So after passing through several corridors, we came to the flower hall.

The last time the flower hall received foreign guests was Shang Qilang.

Compared to him, the people in the fifth room are much more indecent.

When I came up, I sat down on my own, and people brought tea and pastries, so I was very attentive.

Those who didn't know thought they were not here to provoke, but to be ancestors.

None of the servants in Dongyuan liked it.

But Butler He and Nanny Dou are still there, and no one dares to show their faces.

They all do what they are supposed to do.

"Fifth Old Master, please wait a little while, and this servant will invite the Young Madam to meet you."

"Hmph, even a junior dares to carry it all day long. Seeing her come over, I wouldn't blame me if I didn't talk about it."

With that arrogance and attitude, he could not be regarded as the reincarnation of the Bull Demon King.

Look at people with their nostrils upturned.

A hint of sullenness flashed in Aunt Dou's eyes, but she suppressed it quickly, and left the flower hall without saying any more.

When they left, they exchanged glances with Steward He, and both of them knew that there might be a tough battle to fight today.

In Xitang courtyard, Du Jingyi was having breakfast.

She actually got up early today, but she planned to be lazy and stay in bed for a while.

Who knew that the people from Wufang would kill them.

Naturally, she could only get up and wash up.

But he was not in a hurry, instead he planned to have breakfast before going there.

God knows what kind of demon moths those people are going to do, how can they fight this battle if they don't have enough to eat?

Her mentality is good, and she feels a bit like a mountain collapsed in front of her and she will not change her mind.

When Nanny Dou came to answer the conversation, she happened to see this scene.

There was a little more praise in his eyes.

Wan took good care of himself in advance, so that he would be able to deal with the bad things outside.

This kind of state of mind, she learned after many years of practice in the back house.

Unexpectedly, the young lady is smart.

Knowing how to do it at a young age.

So, she stood outside without disturbing her, and waited for Du Jingyi to finish her meal slowly before she went in to answer.

"The servant has seen the young lady."

"Mother Dou, you don't need to be too polite, are you all in order?"

"Back to Young Madam, the fifth old master, the fourth master, the fourth madam, the fifth young master, and the fifth young madam are here today. As for the others, they didn't follow."

Oh?
Doesn't Wufang go everywhere with one heart?
Why is there still a split?
The second master's family and the fifth old lady didn't show up. It seems that the people in the fifth house are not as united as they said.

So he said with a smile.

"Let's go, let's meet the old man and hear what he has to say for me."

"Yes."

After all, a group of masters and servants followed Du Jingyi, walking towards the flower hall in Dongyuan at a leisurely pace.

Along the way, Du Jingyi listened to Nanny Dou talking about Qi Er.

Including his origin, when he entered the Duke's Mansion, and how many years he has been working here.

And what things and people have been in charge of, and where they are now.

Everything is clear when I say it.

After Du Jingyi listened, he probably had a clue in his heart.

At the same time, I couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of Nanny Dou.

The ones Mrs. Gu stayed behind were indeed capable people.

Unfortunately, she went early.

Otherwise, I really want to see how this decent mother-in-law treats people in the back house and kills everyone.

Just thinking about it in my heart, I walked to the front of the flower hall.

When Steward He saw that someone was coming, he immediately stepped forward to meet him.

He said with a worried expression on his face.

"Young Madam, don't get annoyed later. The fifth old man has always scolded the street fiercely. If there is something you don't want to iron, bear with it for now. When the general returns, he will vent his anger on you."

Butler He was kind, but Du Jingyi didn't see it that way.
