My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Chapter 85 Another opportunity

As soon as Du Jingyi said these words, Shang Qiniang's face suddenly turned ugly.

　　Holding the handkerchief and biting it tightly, I quite wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

But Wulang's wife didn't mind the excitement and said to Du Jingyi.

"I'm not afraid of the jokes of my six younger siblings. It's not the emperor's grandson, it's Prince Min himself. Wu Lang came back after finding out the news from outside. He said that Princess Min is old and wants to find a concubine who knows how to take care of Prince Min. Together, we have such a plan , they all think that the seventh sister is good, so they thought of coming to the sixth brother and sister to intercede."

“Prince Min? My concubine? Are you sure?”

Du Jingyi’s surprise made Mrs. Guo wish she could crash to death here.

Even Shang Qiniang lowered her head and refused to speak any more.

Mrs. Ni felt a little hot, but Wulang's wife was not shy, so she hurriedly continued.

"Hey, they were all raised by my mother and father. If we hadn't encountered difficulties, how could we let our seventh sister be a child for others? Firstly, it is difficult to find her because she is old, and secondly, our fifth bedroom You also know something about the situation, but you really can’t give me any decent dowry, so that’s why I’ve delayed the seventh sister until now.”

"Sixth brother and sister, don't think that entering the palace is to be a concubine. If the seventh sister has some skills and can get the position of concubine, wouldn't it be a honor for our family? So the general, I want you to have a good talk with him. If you can directly It’s okay to get the position of concubine.”

 What is whimsical? This is what Wulang’s wife is.

 Her tone of voice and the naturalness of her speech really impressed Du Jingyi.

 I have never seen anyone in the shopping mall. Such a shameless person ranks among the top three people Du Jingyi hates.

Du Jingyi was silent for a short moment after hearing this. Then he ignored Wulang's wife and didn't talk to her directly, and asked Shang Qiniang and Mrs. Guo.

“You think so too?”

Mrs. Guo still only cries and cries as before. Now, not to mention Aunt Dou, even the maids Yingying and Lizhu don't like her very much.

Her daughter was about to be pushed into a pit of fire. As a mother, she didn't want to save her and just cried. No wonder Shang Qiniang ended up like this.

　　It’s really not a loss at all.

With this thought in mind, Mrs. Guo's face didn't look very good when she looked at her.

Li Zhu spoke quickly and spoke to Mrs. Guo.

"Second Madam, please do well and stop crying. If you continue to cry like this, the flowers and plants in our Dongyuan will no longer need to be watered."

 There was a bit of impatience in his tone.

As soon as she opened her mouth, Mrs. Guo was so frightened that she immediately shut up.

He looked at Wulang's wife timidly, as if he was afraid that she would go back and complain.

When Du Jingyi saw this, he scolded Li Zhu.

  “Unbridled.”

Yingtao also pulled Li Zhu's sleeves, and then Li Zhu reluctantly said to Mrs. Guo.

“This slave is too talkative. Please don’t take offense, Madam.”

 “No, no…it’s me…it’s not…”

She wanted to explain, but she couldn't even speak clearly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wu glanced at her, full of warning.

Mrs. Guo completely lost her voice and could only lower her head silently.

 Just like in the past few decades, just be a doormat with no sense of existence.

When Shang Qiniang saw her mother's appearance, she was afraid that the next few decades would be like this.

So he gritted his teeth and looked at Du Jingyi for the first time, and then said. “Sixth sister-in-law, please help me.”

The tone was so firm that Du Jingyi felt something in his heart.

It seems that Shang Qiniang was not pushed into the abyss by her family. She also had the idea of ​​​​fighting and giving it a try.

In this case, the goodwill in Du Jing Yicun's heart will never disappear.



So, after thinking about it, he spoke.

"I'm not completely sure that I can handle this matter, but since you all said so, I should try my best. The General has not had much contact with them in this Min Palace, but when I returned to my parents' home some time ago, , but I have heard that the golden statue will be sculpted at Pingliang Temple in two days, and it is said that the prince and the princes from various palaces will also go."

"If Seventh Sister really wants to give it a try, she might as well dress up on that day and stay with Mrs. Wei to get more opportunities to show her face. Maybe there will be other opportunities."

The words did not say anything about it, but it made the female relatives of the fifth house think about it.

If you have a choice, why hang yourself on this old tree in Prince Min's Mansion?

  It’s all about small things anyway, so who should we do it for?

　　　Maybe I can still climb up to the crown prince.

If you can really enter the East Palace, then your future will be truly limitless.

 Suddenly, Mrs. Wu and others had no tears left, and smiles bloomed on their faces.

I have never been pleasant to look at Du Jingyi. There is a bit of sincerity in the intimacy, and he said with a smile.

"I told you that Liulang's wife is kind-hearted and will not leave us alone, but you also know that our money is very tight. The person who wants to buy Qiniang some clothes and jewelry is really..."

Before she finished speaking, Du Jingyi knew what she meant.

　　So she didn't shirk the blame, and stepped forward to help.

"My mother's family has a tailor shop outside. An embroiderer from Jiangnan came here a few days ago. I heard her skills are very good. How about I ask her to make some clothes for my seventh sister?"

Hearing this, Wu Lang’s wife’s eyes lit up.

Pretending that he didn’t really want to take advantage of this, he interjected.

"That's a good relationship. Seventh sister is lucky. Unlike me, my belly has grown bigger and my clothes are still the same as before. I wonder if the embroiderer will change the waist. Can she add a few pieces of fabric for me to change it? ah?"

 She said it politely, but no one present could hear it.

This is not catching up with the autumn wind, what is this?

Mrs. Ni didn't like her daughter-in-law's attitude and behavior, so she frowned.

As for Mrs. Guo, it was not her turn to comment on this matter, so she kept her mouth shut.

Du Jingyi was more generous than ever this time and replied calmly.

"I'm afraid it won't look good if you add more fabric. Why don't you make a few more clothes? It's getting colder now. Adding two large cloaks can also protect the baby in your belly."

Hearing this, Wulang’s wife laughed so hard that she could hardly see her eyes.

“My brother and sister have thought it through. If that’s the case, then I’ll do a few tricks. When this child comes out, I’ll tell him to be filial to my sixth aunt!”

Shang Qiniang next to her was also rare enough to say more.

She also thanked Du Jingyi profusely. As she said, wouldn't it be better if she could get other opportunities?

 The whole family speaks politely and cheerfully.

If uninformed people outside saw it, they would probably think it was some kind of reunion and harmonious scene.
