Step-room, she is soft and charming

Chapter 97

After a moment of silence, sister-in-law Liu sighed.

When I raised my eyes again, I lost many entanglements just now, and replied quite sincerely.

"I understand what the sixth brother means. I will talk to my siblings about this when I find time."

"Ah."

Shang Ji also saw that the sister-in-law didn't want to talk any further, so naturally she sat down and left.

After he left, Shang Zhiping let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing that his face lacked the enthusiasm and cheerfulness that a teenager should have, Xueniang also lamented, not knowing what to say.

The night was silent, and when the morning glow of the second day sprinkled over the flowers and trees in the Duke's mansion, it seemed as if what happened yesterday had never happened.

Life is still the same.

But Xitangyuan welcomed a person whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Du Jingyi's face was still smeared with pearl jade powder, making her look pale and feeble.

But her actions and demeanor did not seem to be sick.

Especially when Du Jingyi saw his sister-in-law Liu entering the door, Du Jingyi deliberately got out of bed.

This time, my sister-in-law Liu was a little surprised.

It looks like he is pretending to be sick.

"I heard that you were sick, so I came to see you, but it seems that there is no need."

Sister-in-law Liu smiled a little when she spoke, and it could be seen that there was no estrangement with Du Jingyi.

Du Jingyi knew exactly what her husband was doing last night, but she didn't expect that sister-in-law would come to the door in person today.

So he smiled back.

"Let my sister-in-law forget it, I'm fine."

"That's good."

The servant girl Cherry served tea, and then took the people out.

It was the first time for the two of them to be alone together, and Du Jingyi was not timid, but just wanted to hear her purpose for coming today.

After drinking a cup of tea, the sister-in-law opened her mouth.

"I've heard about the matter of the Yunjin Academy. The sixth brother means that he thinks you've done a good job, but I don't think so."

Du Jingyi raised her eyebrows a little when she heard the words, but this sister-in-law can speak harshly in plain language.

So Du Jingyi still asked sincerely.

"Please teach me, sister-in-law."

"The incident at Yunjin Courtyard was caused by Uncle Wu's impulsive actions, but it was caused by human nature. How can you be sure? If he hadn't done anything, then just one Wulang had an emergency, and I'm afraid there will be no trouble to this point.”

"The matter of King Min's Mansion is just an opportunity. You pretended to help the fifth house, which made the third house feel jealous, but how do you know that they will make a fuss yesterday? And you still fight because of it?"

"So, in this case, I think you are lucky enough. If you really want to talk about it, you may not be Mrs. Wei's opponent."

Sister-in-law Liu speaks her mind.

In her opinion, Du Jingyi is smart, but when these things are coherent and carefully counted, she finds that she relies on luck.

So she didn't get used to it, so she just said it.

I just wanted to see how Du Jingyi would respond.

Unexpectedly, after Du Jingyi finished listening, he took a sip from the teacup in his hand in a calm manner.

Then with a chuckle, he said all the plans for these days.

"When I married into the Duke's mansion, I brought a few dowry shops over here. It happened to be near the Jia's shop. Their family has always said that they are in the rice business, but in fact they are also involved in some dark businesses. It got mixed up."

"For example, Jia's family has handled the most popular hibiscus ointment in the tobacco shop outside these days. Once it is contaminated, it can't stop. I heard that the fifth uncle is quite fond of tobacco and alcohol, but 30 taels The box of hibiscus ointment is not easy for Wufang to take it off easily."

When Du Jingyi spoke, there was a certain calculation in his eyes.

It was as if no one or anything could escape from her.

"I let the cherry play tricks on the silver, and this is just one of them. With Wufang's mentality of being poor for a long time and getting rich soon, the money that is so readily available will naturally be squandered. The buddy lures, lures, don't you worry that the fifth uncle and grandpa won't take the bait?"

"The reason why hibiscus ointment is addictive is that it will give people a feeling of refreshing when inhaled at the beginning, and a feeling of insects and ants eating if they don't inhale."

"I figured it out, the box of hibiscus ointment he bought before the past few days should have bottomed out, without the nourishment of that thing, the temper of the fifth uncle is naturally like a barrel filled with oil, with a little spark It can explode."

When he said this, Du Jingyi's expression was a bit mocking.

"Then I spread out the true and false affairs of King Min's Mansion. With the fifth uncle's temper, would he not come to provoke trouble? The third room is a guilty conscience, and secretly wants to go through Jia's family. Waiting for nothing. The news is naturally impatient; Wufang is full of greed, how can the ducks in their mouths be willing to let go, so naturally they have to go to the Yunjin Academy to ask for an explanation."

"Three and five families look united, but they are very protective against each other in their hearts. It is not difficult to fight if a word disagrees."

Naturally, Du Jingyi asked Liu Xun to secretly mix some inexplicable powder into the flowers and plants in Yunjinyuan.

It also promoted the emotions of everyone, and naturally they would fight.

But Liu Xun's matter is still a secret, and Du Jingyi doesn't intend to reveal it.

After listening to these words, sister-in-law's skeptical attitude was shattered by Du Jingyi's response.

His face was silent, and his teeth were clenched tightly.

After a while, he looked up at Du Jingyi, with disbelief and worry in his eyes.

"This step by step was all designed by you?"

Du Jingyi smiled, but at the moment it was cleaner than clear water.

"Sister-in-law was joking, right? The one who sells medicine is the tobacco shop, the one who mixes shares is the Jia family, the one who seduces is the servant, the one who is addicted is the fifth uncle and grandfather, the one who does it is Mrs. Wei, the one who suffers from emergency is Goro, and the one who is frightened is Goro. Daughter-in-law, it was Mother Jiao who was tied up and dragged away, and the fifth room was cleared out, so I have nothing to do with it here."

She acted very innocent, but the more she behaved like this, the more frightened her sister-in-law Liu was.

No matter how you look at it, the most mixed here are the Yunjin Courtyard and the three-bedroom and five-bedroom.

If you want to talk about it, you can only say that Du Jingyi is hiding from trouble and pretending to be ill.

Even if the people in the fifth room settle their accounts after autumn, they will either find Mrs. Wei desperately, or trouble the Jia family and the third room.

It has nothing to do with Dongyuan, maybe they will still remember some of Du Jingyi's friendship with them.

Even if they wanted to use this to climb up to Du Jingyi and the General's Mansion, they would have to escape from the Zhuangzi that Mrs. Wei ordered to surround them tightly.

After these things were connected before and after, sister-in-law Liu's back, which was originally still straight, just loosened up little by little.

It wasn't until the end that he said a word.
