MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 574 joking with each other
After explaining the whereabouts of Lady Bian and her daughter, Brother Tai ran over. Although he was a little curious, he would not ask questions in person, but said to Du Jingyi.
"Mother, when are you going to eat? My son sees that my grandmother is a little tired. I'm afraid I need to eat early and let them rest early."
His words were heart-warming, and even Gu Xiaochun and Gu Xiaoyun were moved.
“Sister-in-law is very good at raising children. Look at how sensible Brother Tai is. He puts us all to shame.”
Hearing the two aunts praising him, Brother Tai also smiled and said.
"Before my father left Sui'an City, he told me that I am the backbone of the family, so naturally I have to take good care of my mother and brothers. Now that a big family is here, Brother Tai must also pay attention. I can't let you think that I'm here. It seems like no one is taking care of me at home.”
His words, not to mention the Gu Xiaochun sisters, even Du Jingyi felt a little proud after hearing this, so they taught him how to deal with the matter.
"If you want to ask about the housekeeper in the front room and outings, and about the servants in the back house and kitchen, you can ask Aunt Dou. Both of them are inseparable from the family, so you go Just ask carefully and you will know if you can have a meal?"
“Well, my son understands, let’s go!”
Then, like a little grown-up, he went to talk to Grandma Dou.
Seeing that he was so old and wanted to start handling things, the Gu Xiaochun sisters couldn't help but said.
“Sister-in-law really knows how to teach children. We still have a lot to learn.”
Du Jingyi said modestly.
"Tai Ge'er will have a heavy burden in the future, so of course he has to cover everything and learn it early so that he can take care of more younger brothers and sisters in the future. Look, the children in this house cannot be careless."
The two sisters smiled, and then looked at the children.
With the three brothers joining in, the younger brothers danced excitedly when they saw them. After a while, one of the older brothers screamed sweetly.
Not long after Brother Tai went to ask Aunt Dou, a banquet started at home.
There were many children, and the younger ones still needed wet nurses to take care of them, so there were three tables of people sitting at once. This was still not a crowded time. If they all came back, it would be like what the eldest aunt said, four tables. Five tables is enough.
Since we moved in, there have never been so many people in the General's Mansion, so we had a pleasant meal.
They are all children who have grown up with rules, so they are very well-educated when eating, and they do not run around and talk randomly.
On the other hand, the eldest aunt liked Tai Geer's straight back more and more.
This meal was prepared carefully by Danruo, so there were things everyone liked to eat on the table, and some that the aunt and uncle had never seen before.
"These are dishes from Shu and Bei. Xia Meng came back after eating outside and told Dan Ruo to make them again. She didn't feel wronged at all. When she came back from Quanzhou, most of the land of the Daxing Dynasty, She’s almost gone.”
Logically speaking, Aunt Xing should have been anxious because her daughter-in-law was so "unruly", but in the end she said with a proud look.
"When we get married, if Zhao'er wants to stay in Sui'an City, then I will accompany the young couple. If not, then I will travel around with my wife here. At this age, there are places where she can't go. More, um, no, I won’t have a chance to show off in front of my grandchildren in the future.”
Her thoughts are quite strange, and the Gu family is used to them. They are also used to the fact that Dr. Xia doesn't like to stay at home and likes to travel around. They are very envious of it every day, so they don't think there is anything strange.
“By the way, has there been any letter from Dr. Xia? When will he be back?”
“According to Mr. Leng’s previous itinerary, I estimate that we should be back in autumn.”
After hearing what Du Jingyi said, the eldest aunt and the second aunt were also very excited and said to Aunt Xing.
"Zhao'er's marriage is a great event. You may not be able to handle it alone. If you need anything, just say hello and we will do it together. We are both the mother-in-law's family and the mother's family, so we need to worry more. "
Aunt Xing was not afraid of troublesome others and immediately replied with a smile.
“Don’t worry, hall sister, don’t you know who I am? Anyone who can trouble you will never trouble myself!”
“You naughty bitch! You’re already a mother-in-law, and you still look like you’ve grown up. You still talk about Zhao’er being irrelevant every day. Look at you, aren’t you imitating her?”
Seeing this, Aunt Xing waved her hand and answered immediately.
“No, no, it’s a sign of my youth. There were also famous beauties in Jinling City. Zhao’er more or less followed his father. Well, he’s not as beautiful as me.”
She didn't say it with a blushing face or a beating heart. Instead, she made the eldest aunt so amused that she almost stretched out her hand to hit her. Even the second aunt, who rarely spoke, hurriedly added a sentence.
"Beauty Gu, can we have a good meal? We can't let us go hungry looking at your passing beauty, right? We are not his uncle, and we can still be so tired of seeing you for so many years."
It was rare to hear her joking, so Aunt Xing pretended to be aggrieved and said.
"Okay, okay, they say time makes people grow old, and beauty also ages. Eat first, I will tell you later."
Everyone finished their first meal in Sui'an City in a lively manner.
The spring scenery gradually began to creep into the garden of the General's Mansion, and everything looked new, including the outside. Pedestrians slowly took off their thick cotton-padded clothes and replaced them with slightly thinner clothes. moon.
Aunt Xing is very busy these days, and the first priority is to choose a yard.
The Du family was very fast, and they found more than a dozen places in half a month. Aunt Xing went to look at each place to choose, and finally hesitated between two houses.
In Xitang Courtyard, she took the land and house maps of these two places and came to talk to Du Jingyi.
“I like both of these houses, but I can’t decide. Can you help me see which one is more suitable?”
Du Jingyi is not good at choosing houses, but he still has some experience in decorating houses, so after looking at the drawings carefully, he pointed to the house on the left.
"Aunt, I think this is good. Seeing that there are small gardens on the left and right sides of the main courtyard. Let's rearrange the small gardens and merge the small gardens into the courtyards on the left and right sides. That would mean there are private gardens in all three places. More convenient, don’t you think?”
“Hey, why didn’t I think of it, good idea, good idea, okay, then choose this one, your eyes are poisonous, the one you picked is the most expensive among all the houses!”
