MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 189 Wulingzhuang
Chapter 189 Wuling Village
Hearing this, the Du family also laughed heartily.
"If we don't talk to each other, 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's eyes are closely focused on 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 away from them, felt heartbroken every time they looked at them.
Although I already knew in my heart that there was no chance for me and cousin Shaoyu, the sadness in my eyes could not be hidden.
Her attitude was noticed by Mrs. Xing, and naturally Mrs. Du also saw it.
Mrs. Du raised her eyebrows. She could understand what was happening in front of her with just two glances. 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 we look at this mountain and it is comparable to Mingshan Mountain.”
Luo Yuan's words were full of energy. As soon as he heard them, 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 looks like 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! Really..."
"Then let me ask, will Mr. Xing go?"
Luo Yuan knew Xing Zhao’s temperament well, so he spoke straight to the point.
Xing Zhao chuckled and changed faces faster than turning the pages of a book.
“Go, why don’t you go? Didn’t you agree that you would 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?”
“You’ll know if you give it a try? We’re not women, why should we soak in a hot spring?”
Luo Yuan obviously had no interest in soaking in hot springs, but these words fell into Cherry's ears accurately.
Seeing her face fall, she said.
“What happened to the woman? What happened to the hot spring?”
“Hey, I’m stupid, I said the wrong thing.”
Luo Yuan has seen Cherry White Eyes before, and this is the territory of the Du family, so he gave in very quickly.
Such an attitude made Xing Zhao and the guards laugh at him.
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 as to why she had not 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 madam, I am just a rough man, don't argue with me." What he was afraid of was not Du Jingyi, but his general's future.
In case you are unhappy, arrange him directly to do other things, wouldn't this snow mountain be seen in vain and could not go.
Hence, Xing Zhao couldn't help but shake his head because of his attitude.
“You said that if the enemy troops in Daijin saw the powerful Lieutenant General Luo like this, would they think they were crazy?”
Luo Yuan smiled and did not refute, but in his heart he wanted to block Xing Zhao's mouth.
It’s true that you can’t lift the pot without opening it.
Vice General Luo?
Du Jingyi thought Luo Yuan was just a personal attendant of her husband, but he didn't expect that he would be a deputy general.
But I look down upon him.
I couldn't help but chuckle when I thought of my maid, Cherry.
Shang Ji didn't notice anything, so he said calmly.
“Let’s rest in the house 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. It can be seen that they are 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 hunting in winter, so Shang Ji was worried.
You must accompany him personally and come back safely.
Du Jingyi glanced at Shang Zhiping and understood what her 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 wild game, you can also add two dishes to everyone.”
"Okay, I'll be waiting for the general's good news."
Hearing this, the excitement on the faces of Luo Yuan and others was not as high as before.
If it was according to their temperament, they would like to go there for three days and three nights to feel refreshed.
But I took Shang Zhiping with me and wanted to come back before dinner as the young lady said. It really only took a few hours to come back.
But then I thought about it, it would be nice if I could go.
If it weren't for the Du family's invitation this time, 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.
Enter Zhuangzi, there is not much luxury here, it shows the simplicity of an ordinary farmhouse.
However, if you look closely, you will know that it looks ordinary but is not cheap, it is just more low-key.
Shang Ji asked as he followed his wife Du Jingyi all the way forward.
“How many father-in-laws do you have like Zhuangzi?”
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 hilltop behind it actually belongs to the Du family.
The Daxing Dynasty lasted only a few decades. In order to raise military pay and various treasury expenses, a lot of surrounding land was allocated to wealthy businessmen competing to purchase it.
This place was built by Mr. Du at that time.
