My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Hearing this, the Du family also laughed heartily.

"If we don't talk about two families, the old lady can come here just to give our Du family face. Please come in quickly. Everything is ready."

The Du family's enthusiasm melted the cold winter weather and made everyone in the Gu family feel more cordial.

So the third aunt and the fourth aunt helped Mrs. Gu into the village.

Shang Ji paid close attention to his wife Du Jingyi.

If there weren't too many people at the moment, I'm afraid he would have to walk through the snow with Du Jingyi in his arms.

The sweet eyes of the couple could not tolerate others, but Gu Xiaolang, who was standing not far from them, felt heartbroken every time he saw them.

Although I already knew in my heart that there was no chance for me and cousin Shaoyu, I couldn't hide the sadness in my eyes.

Mrs. Xing saw her attitude, and naturally Mrs. Du also saw it.

Mrs. Du raised her eyebrows. It only took two eyes to understand what was happening in front of her. Mrs. Xing's deliberate move to calm Gu Xiaolang's mood confirmed this matter.

She used to ask her daughter to guard against people outside, but she didn't expect that a cousin who was her childhood sweetheart would appear.

However, judging from the loving appearance of the daughter and son-in-law, I am afraid that this cousin has little chance.

So he pretended not to understand, and welcomed the person in enthusiastically.

Mrs. Du's expression could change easily, so no one noticed that she had read Gu Xiaolang's thoughts.

Xing Zhao, Luo Yuan and others looked excited.

Looking at the snow-capped mountains behind Zhuangzi, I was so excited that I almost jumped up.

"When we were in Cezhou, we often went to Mingshan Mountain to train on snowy days. Now looking at this mountain, it is comparable to Mingshan Mountain."

The words in Luo Yuan's mouth were full of motivation. As soon as he heard it, he knew that he might not be able to see anyone else in Zhuangzi these two days.

Not only him, but also the entire Guards, seeing this snow-capped mountain was like seeing their hometown, their eyes were full of excitement.

Xing Zhao said with a look of disgust.

"It seems that you haven't been tortured enough in the Huben Army camp. Look at how drooling you are. Those are snowy mountains! Snowy mountains! They are not beauties! They are really..."

"Then let me ask, will Young Master Xing go?"

Luo Yuan knew Xing Zhao's temperament well, so he said it straight to the point.

Xing Zhao chuckled, changing faces faster than flipping through a book.

"Go, why don't you go? Didn't you agree to take Ping'er to meet Dong Xie?"

He would find steps for himself, so even if Shang Zhiping knew that he was just a cover, he was still infected by their radical look at this moment.

"Is winter hunting really as fun as you say?"

"Would you know if you try it? We are not women, what kind of hot spring should we soak in?"

Luo Yuan obviously had no interest in soaking in hot springs, but these words fell into Cherry's ears accurately.

She said with a look on her face.

"What happened to the woman? What happened to the hot spring?"

"Hey, I'm stupid, I said the wrong thing."

Luo Yuan had seen Cherry's white eyes before, and this was the territory of the Du family, so he gave in very quickly.

Such an attitude made Xing Zhao and the guards laugh at him.

Everyone is a rough guy, and Cherry can't stand it when someone teases them.

In the end, I had no choice but to run in with a blushing face and a slight embarrassment.

Such an appearance made Du Jingyi a little curious, why hadn't she discovered this side of cherries before?

So he squinted his eyes and looked at Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan was frightened when she looked at her so coldly, and quickly raised his hand to express his gratitude.

"Young lady, I'm just a rough guy, don't argue with me."

What he was afraid of was not Du Jingyi, but his general's future reckoning.

If someone is unhappy and directly arranges for him to do other things, then wouldn't it be a waste to see this snow-capped mountain but not be able to go there.

Therefore, Xing Zhao couldn't help but shake his head because of his attitude.

"Do you think the enemy troops in Daijin would think they were crazy if they saw the powerful Lieutenant General Luo like this?"

Luo Yuan smiled and did not refute, but in his heart he wanted to block Xing Zhao's mouth.

It’s true that there is no pot that cannot be opened.

Lieutenant General Luo?

Du Jingyi thought Luo Yuan was just a personal attendant of his husband, but he didn't expect that he would be a deputy general.

I rather underestimated him.

Thinking of the appearance of his maid Cherry, she couldn't help but chuckle.

Shang Ji didn't notice anything, so he said calmly.

"First go inside and rest for a while. After an hour, we will go into the mountain again."

"The general is going too?"

This sentence came from the mouths of Du Jingyi and Luo Yuan respectively, and it was obvious that they were very curious.

Shang Ji nodded without explaining anything.

If there were only Xing Zhao and Luo Yuan, he wouldn't have to worry about it.

They have never been to any difficult and dangerous places in Cezhou, so the snow-capped mountains behind Zhuangzi are really not the same thing.

But they wanted to take Shang Zhiping with them, so Shang Ji had to go with them to take care of him.

He didn't even understand how to ride and shoot, let alone go for winter hunting, so Shang Ji was worried.

You must accompany him personally to come back safely.

Du Jingyi glanced at Shang Zhiping and understood what his husband was thinking, so he smiled and said.

"In that case, general, please be more careful and wait for you to come back for dinner, okay?"

"It's almost the same. If you hunt game, you can also add two dishes to everyone."

"Okay, I'll just wait for the general's good news."

After hearing this, the excitement on the faces of Luo Yuan and others was not as high as before.

If it were according to their temperament, they would wish to go there for three days and three nights to enjoy themselves.

But with Shang Zhiping, he had to come back before dinner as the young lady said. He really only had to go for a few hours and then come back.

But then I thought about it, it would be nice to go there.

If it weren't for the invitation from the Du family, they probably wouldn't have found such a good place to have fun.

So I stopped worrying and put a smile on my face again.

Entering Zhuangzi, there is not much luxury here, but the simplicity of an ordinary farmhouse.

However, if you look closely, you will know that it looks ordinary but is not cheap at all, it is just more low-key.

Shang Ji asked as he followed his wife Du Jingyi all the way forward.

"Like this Zhuangzi, how many father-in-laws do you have?"

Du Jingyi hummed, then said with a smile.

"I haven't calculated it carefully, but there should be eight or nine places."

In fact, Du Jingyi has not told him that not only Zhuangzi, but also the hills behind actually belong to the Du family.

The Daxing Dynasty only lasted for a few decades. In order to raise military salaries and various treasury expenses, a lot of surrounding land was allocated to wealthy businessmen competing to purchase it.

This place was purchased by Mr. Du at that time.
