MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 590 Arrange early
Xia Meng was overwhelmed by the series of words and didn't know which sentence to reply first.
So Du Jingyi said to the side to help.
"Auntie, please be patient, Xia Meng just walked in. Carefully scare her."
"I'm not that timid, it's just that my aunt asked too many questions, and I couldn't answer them for a while, but thank you for worrying about our marriage."
Although her origin is unknown, she is well-bred and neither humble nor overbearing whenever she gets along with others. She is quite calm and calm. Therefore, Aunt Xing likes her more and more, and even feels that her brat may not be worthy of her.
The eldest aunt on the side heard it and clicked her tongue twice.
“Look, everyone in your family has a clever mouth. Everyone speaks as nicely as that lark. Yun Qing’s heart must be as sweet as honey.”
Hearing this, Aunt Xing nodded quickly, took Xia Meng's hand without saying anything, and said.
"I've been looking forward to the stars and the moon, but finally I got a daughter-in-law, and she's such an excellent daughter-in-law. I'm naturally very happy. Now I'm writing to ask when that brat will come back, so I can figure out the days. , next post!”
Seeing this, Xia Meng added something.
"There is no need to write to my aunt. On the way back, we made a special trip to Wangzhou. Xing Zhao means that he will be back before the end of the year."
“What about the general? Can he come back too?”
Du Jingyi asked with concern. Of course she cared about having more husbands, so she said this.
“General Gu didn’t tell me the specific date. He just asked me to bring a letter to Madam.”
She usually receives a letter from home in about half a month, and it has only been four or five days since she last received a letter from home. She originally thought she would have to wait a few more days, but now she has an unexpected surprise.
So, Du Jingyi's face was full of happiness after receiving the letter, but it was difficult to open it and read it in front of everyone, so he put it directly into his sleeve, which made Aunt Xing and the others laugh.
"Let's go, let's take them down to clean up first, rest for a while before talking about anything else, and give our niece-in-law some time. Let's see how many more lovesickness words Shao Yu said."
“Aunt!”
Although Du Jingyi is already the mother of four children, she still has the attitude of a little girl when she acts coquettishly, which makes people unable to bear it, so everyone smiled and left.
Aunt Xing is quite discerning, but this insight also makes Du Jingyi a little funny.
After everyone left, she took out the letter, thinking it would be the same as the previous letter home, but she didn't expect that Du Jingyi was shocked after reading the contents.
After reading it carefully twice and making sure that there was no missing information, I called Cherry.
“Prepare the brazier.”
"yes."
Although Cherry was a little strange, she quickly took the things over, and then watched Du Jingyi burn the letter without leaving any trace.
Cherry frowned when she saw it, why did the lady suddenly do this?
But she shouldn't ask too many questions. She had always served Du Jingyi, so she just stood aside respectfully and waited for Du Jingyi's instructions.
It wasn't until the letter was engulfed by the flames that no trace was left, that Du Jingyi made a move to the outside. Not long after, Liu Xun appeared like a ghost. Seeing Liu Xun coming, Yingtao retreated as before, guarding outside to prevent others from approaching.
Inside the room, the atmosphere was a bit strange.
Liu Xun didn't know why his wife suddenly found him, so he kept his head slightly lowered, waiting for orders.
After a long time without seeing her speak, Liu Xun asked again.
“What are your instructions, madam? I will do my best to carry it out.”
“Mr. Liu, general...but we have to choose another good leader?”
Her eyes were full of complexity, and her tone was a little more hesitant, but at the same time, when she looked at Liu Xun, her expression was particularly certain and solemn, so Liu Xun could only nod silently, as a sign of recognition. about this matter.
Du Jingyi sighed deeply and leaned back on the soft pillow. If they just chose a team among the princes, then at most they would be fighting against the supporters of other princes.
But now, if everything is as she saw in the letter, then what they have to face is to draw a clear line with all their current in-laws.
For example, the Xing family.
For example, the Yan family.
There is even the Guo family.
With this kind of regardless of cost, it would be better if you choose a wise king, but if you choose a king who becomes ruthless when he comes to power, then their general's palace will be a place that is despised by everyone and will never be restored.
This round is a bit big.
But the sigh turned into a sigh, and the hesitation turned into a hesitation. When Liu Xun looked up at Du Jingyi again, he saw that she had regained her former composure. Even if it was not all from the heart, it was for this big family, this general. The government still has all its reputation, which is supported.
The corners of Liu Xun's mouth raised slightly, but it quickly dissipated.
"Now that the general has made up his mind, we must do our best to help. Mr. Liu, I only ask you one thing. If something unexpected happens in the future, protect the children and leave first, or go to the Su family. They have their own way to send them away. Let the children leave, or stay anonymous and find an empty valley to raise them into adults.”
Hearing words like "entrusting an orphan", Liu Xun couldn't help but remember that before he left the Huben Army, the general also told him the same thing. He just asked him to protect the people who were sent away, and there was an extra wife among them.
Thinking of this, he immediately answered aloud.
“Madam, don’t worry, I will never give up even if I die.”
After receiving a positive answer, Du Jingyi no longer dwelled on the matter. Instead, he briefly went through the list in his mind based on the list provided in the letter before speaking to Liu Xun.
"The general is making preparations in Wangzhou. Let's pave the way for them in Sui'an City. It's the end of the year soon. The four princes are getting married, and all the vassal kings are coming to congratulate them. Let's get in touch with the prince first."
“Yes, ma’am.”
In Gu Shaoyu's letter to Du Jingyi, in addition to mentioning the people he really wanted to support, there was also a series of lists. Some of these lists were the backbone of the Gu family's business for generations, and there were also the seeds that Gu Shaoyu had planted over the years. Some of them are now It has long been a giant tree, and some are still slowly deepening.
What Du Jingyi did not expect was that there would be traces of the Han family here.
After a short moment of silence, Du Jingyi called Yingtao to come in. When Yingtao came in, Liu Xun was no longer around, and everything was back to the beginning.
