MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 624 Tell the truth
Gu Shaoyu thought for a while and quickly agreed.
As a coach, he didn’t have that much money to make arrangements in the past, but now that he has it, of course he has to take care of it.
“This money must have a suitable name so that I can accept it.”
Hearing this, Du Jingyi suggested.
"How about this? Let Uncle Han take the lead and ask everyone from the Cezhou Chamber of Commerce to contribute. If not, let our two families take the lead. Then we will raise funds and contribute as much as we have. Let's start with Daying. The money inside will start to be deducted, and if there is any leftover, it will be exchanged for grain, part of it will be stored, and part of it will be sent out. This can be regarded as an explanation to the people of Cezhou. What does the general think?"
"Madam's method is naturally good. I'll let Shao Shengming do this. He is now the prefect of Ce, so it is most suitable to set up such a situation."
“Well, that’s the general’s arrangement!”
The couple settled the matter in just a few words, so much so that after the children took a bath in the always-flowing hot water in the camp, they all lamented that their father had become a human being!
The brothers originally came back after washing, but when they saw the pool, they couldn't help it, so they let people put in the water and jumped straight into it, one by one, like dumplings, but these dumplings were buckwheat. Made of noodles.
Soon, the sounds of children playing in the east courtyard could be heard.
The eldest aunt and the second aunt were listening outside, and they couldn't help but think of the past, but now the pain has been smoothed away by the grandchildren.
“You still have to have children at home, otherwise it won’t be that comfortable for you and me to stay quietly in such a big house!”
“That’s what my sister-in-law said.”
"The fourth brother and sister have been away for a long time. It's been almost three months and they still haven't come back! I don't know what kind of medicine she is selling in the gourd?"
The eldest aunt said something pretending to complain, and the second aunt next to her heard it and couldn't help but tease her.
“Sister-in-law, you miss your fourth brother and sister so quickly? But you feel like there’s no one to quarrel with you when she’s not here, right?”
“You are the only one who is poor!”
The eldest aunt deliberately rolled her eyes at her, then sighed and said.
“But she is really thinking about it. She feels that the house should be more lively, don’t you think?”
"The fourth brother and sister have a fiery temper, but they have been suppressed all those years. If it weren't for the return of Shaoyu and the others and the birth of the children, I was afraid that she would be the first one in the yard to be silent. Now this is good, I sometimes envy her His energy is really extraordinary!"
“No, there’s Li Zhu too. She’s running around with her every day, but she doesn’t want to find a good family for her. Why don’t you and I use our brains?”
Hearing this, the second aunt was also somewhat interested in coming, but she was afraid that it would be troublesome if she did bad things with good intentions, just like when they wanted to propose marriage to Cherry, so she said something in advance.
"Don't be anxious about this matter. Let's ask Shao Yu's wife first. After all, she is the one close to her. Let's not just think about getting married. Maybe she has other ideas."
The eldest aunt also felt that this was very reasonable. She nodded and said nothing more.
Tai Geer and his brothers didn't know that the grandmothers outside were discussing this. They just took a comfortable bath and ate a delicious meal. They had a sense that this was the enjoyment of the world.
After struggling for a long time, the sky also darkened.
The night sky in Cezhou is the most beautiful that Du Jingyi has ever seen. It is deep but very clear, and the stars are everywhere, as dazzling as a tapestry of light.
The couple sat opposite each other under the moonlight, enjoying the tranquility of the breeze. It was quite a peaceful time, but unfortunately, the night was broken by Gu Shaoyu's words. "The fourth aunt came back with a message and said that there are some clues. Therefore, I am leaving for Qiuhua Mountain. I am afraid that the eldest aunt and the others will be excited and find an excuse to go."
It was precisely because he was leaving that he brought the children back.
When Du Jingyi heard this, he was not surprised. Instead, he said it with comfort.
"General, just go. The concubine at home will make arrangements. But when you go, no matter what the news is, you have to hold on."
Gu Shaoyu sighed deeply. He understood the truth, but it was about the lives of his grandfather and uncle and so many Gu family members. How could he really let go?
If it weren't for the words that Marquis Dingping said before his death, he would not have restarted the investigation of what happened that year. Everyone in the army has a duty, so for such a secret matter, the only thing he can do is trouble the fourth aunt to investigate. .
She was also in the army back then, so she still knew the whole story very well. Now that she had sent a message saying that she had discovered something, he naturally wanted to go there.
"The return date of this trip is uncertain. At that time, I will take Ni Yang and Zheng Deli with me. Mu Lianying and Wei Lun will take over the affairs of the army. Some people from the Guards will also come to my home. Liu Xun will be in charge. If you have anything If it's a matter, just look to the three of them."
"I understand, but I am ready to take action on the land east of the city. I may have to contact Mr. Shao at that time. If the general is not around, who can I recommend to you?"
"It's simple. I'll send someone a message tomorrow and ask him to come to your door."
"Master, it's not okay to be like this. Lord Shao has a family, and I'll post it next to you."
"Yes, his wife is also from Cezhou. I met her once, and she seems to have a humble personality. She also has a son and a daughter, who are also well-behaved and smart."
“The house has been repaired now, so I’ll invite them to be my guests.”
Gu Shaoyu glanced at it, then chuckled and said.
“Madam, are you planning to host a banquet for guests?”
"We have to live in Cezhou for a long time, and we have to build a good relationship with all parties. Otherwise, it will be impossible for outsiders to say that our General's Mansion is unkind."
Du Jingyi is now a little older, so he needs to be more mature in dealing with these human and worldly aspects. Gu Shaoyu never overdoes it, as long as she feels it is appropriate.
So he nodded and said something.
"It's up to you."
"OK."
The couple talked about everyday things. After chatting briefly for a while, they lay down.
Du Jingyi was still sleeping well, but Gu Shaoyu just lay down and did not fall asleep, so at this moment, his mind and eyes were filled with things from that year.
Those who have never experienced it naturally don’t know the kind of pain, and he will never forget it in his life.
At dawn, when Du Jingyi woke up, Gu Shaoyu had already packed everything. She was about to get out of bed to see her off, but she was stopped by Gu Shaoyu.
“Just fall asleep, it’ll be okay, I’ll leave now.”
“General, be careful on the road. If you have any news, remember to tell me.” (End of Chapter)
