My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

So there is no point in talking more, everything will have to wait until later.

When they see with their own eyes that they are indeed capable of serving as housekeepers, they will naturally not interfere too much.

After all, if she wanted to use such a skilled nanny and housekeeper, she would naturally have to convince them.

Otherwise, relying solely on identity suppression will eventually backfire.

She understands this better than anyone else.

So she let Yingtao help Granny Dou stand up, and then said soothingly.

"Mommy is doing it for my own good, so she's just being quick to talk for a moment. It's okay."

Du Jingyi's lack of blame made Grandma Dou blame herself even more.

But even so, deep down in her heart, she still prefers to let Madam Liu handle the affairs of the three and five bedrooms, feeling that it is more reliable.

Therefore, self-blame is self-blame.

If they really come to make trouble again in the future, she will definitely send the news to Fuqiuyuan as soon as possible.

Du Jingyi also has to understand this.

Therefore, he did not continue to dwell on the matter, but changed the topic to Aunt Dou.

"I suddenly want to eat some almond milk soup. Isn't grandma the best at making this? Could you please excuse me?"

After hearing this, Grandma Dou nodded immediately.

Then, he said with a bit of relief in his tone.

"Young lady wants to eat, I will do it now."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, mama."

After saying that, Aunt Dou respectfully withdrew.

After only Yingying and Lizhu were left in the house, the two of them gathered around.

Especially Cherry, who asked with some worry when she opened her mouth.

"Why don't you speak up, Madam? Mother Dou and Madam Dou are worried. I'm afraid your housekeeper will have some trouble in the future."

She is a smart person, so she can understand the situation just now.

Although Li Zhu on the side did not speak, he nodded to express his confusion.

On the contrary, Du Jingyi smiled, with a playful expression on his face.

After his body softened, he lay down on the kang, found a comfortable position, put his head on his hands and said.

"Don't I want to leave a good impression on them? I don't have to let people know and say I'm evil."

One sentence made both Cherry and Li Zhu laugh.

Indeed, when they think about what the fifth house may face next, the three masters and servants become happy.

It's quite a bit like watching a show without being too busy.

"Look at the appearance of the money they treasured just now. I'm afraid no one would believe Zhi Zhen even if he told me. He could be a figure in the Duke's palace."

Li Zhu's tone was a bit disdainful.

Du Jingyi replied to her.

"To put it nicely, they are relatives in the Duke's mansion, but to put it more unpleasantly, aren't they just locusts and borers? Haven't we seen them at home?"

At the mention of this, Li Zhu was filled with indignation.

"I thought that the people in our family were the only ones with no bones. Now it seems that these old men in the Duke's mansion are even more disgusting."

After that, he wiped his hands on his clothes.

Unless the situation was urgent, she would not be willing to touch the fifth old man.

The whole body is fat and greasy, which makes people sick of looking at it.

Seeing her expression, Cherry next to her also laughed helplessly.

"Okay, after all this early morning trouble, I guess the young lady is sleepy again. Let's make the bed and let the young lady sleep for a while first."

When Du Jingyi heard this, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.

He said coquettishly to Cherry.

"Cherry is still my favorite."

One sentence made the two maids laugh too.

Du Jingyi has loved sleeping since he was a child, and he can sleep well.

In addition, my body and bones have not fully recovered from the fierce battle the night before, so it is better to sleep more and recuperate.

So Yingtao and Lizhu waited on her, took off their hairpins, changed their clothes, and then slept openly in broad daylight.

People outside didn't know why and thought she was scared.

It's not easy to disturb him.

After Grandma Dou made the almond milk soup, she hurriedly delivered it over.

But after hearing the news that his young lady had fallen asleep, the worry in his eyes became more and more obvious.

I just don’t know how to speak.

So after letting someone leave the things behind, he went outside to talk to the housekeeper.

The two of them have worked together to protect Dongyuan for many years. This has been the case in the past and will be the same in the future.

Butler He's thoughts coincided with those of Aunt Dou, so the two met in the corridor.

"How's it going there, young lady?"

Butler He asked as soon as he saw Aunt Dou, with some worry in his tone.

Aunt Dou's face didn't look too good and she replied.

"I'm probably a little sad. When I just passed by, I heard Cherry said she was resting again."

Butler He raised his head and glanced at the increasingly shimmering sky, and could only sigh briefly.

"The young lady is still young, and she is not as prudent as the eldest lady in handling matters. We should pay more attention to these matters in the future."

Aunt Dou nodded her head after hearing this.

They always felt like these wealthy men in the back house would swallow up Du Jingyi.

Just as he was talking, he saw his general rushing back from outside.

His face wasn't very pretty, and his eyes were filled with anger.

He came forward and asked.

"Where are the people in the fifth room?"

Obviously, Shang Ji knew about this.

Butler He glanced sideways at Wang Ji, the servant waiting in Fuqiu Courtyard, and he understood the general idea.

It must have been that after the eldest young lady learned the news, she was afraid that the young lady would not be able to control the situation, so she sent someone to invite Shang Ji to come back.

So he quickly replied.

"Sent away by the young lady."

"No trouble?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that the young lady gave them one hundred taels of silver, so Qi Er's matter is over."

Hearing this, Shang Ji's fast walking feet suddenly paused.

Sometimes, he even felt that these were not his relatives, they seemed to have no bones in their bodies, so he just liked to pretend to be dead.

On the contrary, when he drinks human blood and gnaws on human bones, he wishes that his whole body looked like a mouth.

So, he picked up his steps again, faster than before, and ran towards Xitang Courtyard.

Aunt Dou planned to follow her, but was stopped by Butler He who was standing beside her.

"Let the general see it, and let's just do our own thing."

When Grandma Dou heard this, she was a little worried, but she did stop.

Didn't follow.

In Xitang Courtyard, Shang Ji and his personal accomplice Luo Yuan rushed back in a hurry.

By chance, I met Yingying who was quietly making embroidered handkerchiefs in the corridor.

Her embroidery skills are not comparable to Lu Ju's, but it doesn't stop her from passing the time when she has nothing to do.

She was also slightly surprised to see her general rushing back in such a hurry.

After all, I saw him last night.

Although his expression was a little hasty, it was much better than the cold face he had now.
