My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

People tend to be nostalgic, but when faced with these countless good things, they can also be dazzled.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw a row of maple trees. Although there is no good view of the red maples beating the fire at the moment, I can see that the maple forest is lush and green, and I will be able to see it next year.

Going around in a circle, up, down, left, and right, everything was decorated according to Xue Niang's Hanyi Courtyard in Dongyuan.

It's just more attentive and more skillful.

Xue Niang said with emotion while watching.

Sixth sister-in-law also asked us to prepare things. I thought we were going to move the furniture together. I didn't expect it to be so complete. But only those with luggage can live in it.

If you like the things from the past, you can also bring them here. There are two rooms on the left and right, which you can decorate by yourself. However, I have arranged and decorated the things in the main room and the embroidery building in advance. If you feel that If it doesn’t satisfy you, just ask Aunt Dou to change it.”

Du Jingyi didn't force himself too much. The place where he lived had to be in line with his own wishes.

After hearing this, Xue Niang felt extremely happy.

Although the eldest sister-in-law has been taking care of her for more than ten years, she still has a lot of respect for the sixth sister-in-law. After all, the eldest sister-in-law is an elder in her heart, and the sixth sister-in-law is like a sister.

Therefore, I held her hand intimately in the past and said a little shyly.

Thank you Sister-in-law Six for taking the trouble to arrange it for me. I like it all.

As long as you like it, let's go see the yard where sister-in-law and Heping'er live.

Um.

It's not too far to walk from Xueniang's yard to my sister-in-law's yard, just a cup of tea away.

But the scenery is completely different.

The first thing you see is an open and cheerful garden, which is now neat and tidy.

I have ordered people to prepare all the grass seeds. When the time comes, they will be covered with grass ash. Dense and green flowers and plants will surely grow next year.

Just by thinking about it, you can know how green this yard will be by then.

Walking along the garden, the first thing you see is the study room with bright windows. It is as big as two rooms and has everything you need.

Unlike when he was in Dongyuan, when Shang Zhiping wanted to write and study, he basically stayed in his sister-in-law's room without a separate and neat study room.

Seeing this, regardless of whether Shang Zhiping can succeed in studying in the future, who would not be happy to see this environment?

Sister-in-law Liu looked at Du Jingyi with tears in her eyes.

Let my brothers and sisters worry about it. Ping'er's study is very, very good.

Seeing her excitement and gratitude, Du Jingyi responded with a smile.

As long as sister-in-law likes her, the general has told me that he will ask his husband to teach Ping'er's studies. I thought it would be a good thing if he arranged it this way.

Now the sister-in-law is most concerned about her only son, so as long as it is for him, she will do anything.

However, when Shang Zhiping heard this, he felt a little aggrieved and worried.

He was probably afraid that he was not worthy of such a good husband and study, so he expressed this expression.

Du Jingyi saw it and naturally understood it.

She knew that Ping'er had a knot in her heart. After years of repression, she always felt that she was not good here and that she was not worthy there, so she was full of unconfidence.

Du Jingyi didn't want to force him to grow up immediately, so he stepped forward to comfort him and said.

Actually, for people like ours, regardless of whether they have to make great contributions or become prime ministers, as long as they can understand the principles in the book, know etiquette, justice and shame, and can apply what they have learned, it is a good thing, right, Ping'er.

These words relieved Shang Zhiping's worries a little.

Apart from anything else, the pressure is a little less.

He just looked at his mother nervously and said something rather uncomfortable.

I'm afraid my mother will be sad.

He muttered for a long time before saying this, but Du Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Silly boy, what are you talking about?

Sister-in-law Liu sighed, her eyes turning slightly red again.

She does her best for her son wholeheartedly, and it is a good thing that her son can remember her.

But now, he only thinks about her and forgets that he is also an independent person, which makes his sister-in-law feel heartbroken.

He wanted to say something, but was stopped by Du Jingyi.

After casting a relieved look, he turned to Shang Zhiping and continued.

Although I am not a mother yet, I am also a daughter. I know that there are many parents in the world who hope that their children will succeed. But when it comes to it, it doesn't matter if you have a bright future. The most important thing is to live a healthy and happy life. This is more important than Everything is important, and I think my sister-in-law means the same thing.

Shang Zhiping looked at Du Jingyi in disbelief, as if thinking about the authenticity of her words.

My sister-in-law also knows that what she did in the past put too much pressure on her children.

So now I calm down and agree.

Your sixth aunt is right.

Seeing this expression, Shang Zhiping relaxed a little and was no longer as restrained as he was when he first entered the garden.

After Du Jingyi saw it, he and his sister-in-law looked at each other and both thought it was a good thing.

Therefore, Du Jingyi, who strikes while the iron is hot, mentioned it.

Do you have any daily preferences, Ping'er? I have left several vacant rooms in this yard, and I can decorate them individually for you.

After hearing this, Shang Zhiping looked at Du Jingyi with a slightly confused look.

Then his face turned red, and he lowered his head and shook his head.

Seeing him like this, my sister-in-law Liu was even more heartbroken.

On the contrary, Du Jingyi didn't find it strange and kept waiting quietly.

It wasn't until Shang Zhiping gathered up his courage that he heard him whisper.

I know some Cuju, but... I'm not very good at it.

He spoke like a mosquito, as if having hobbies was a shameful thing.

Du Jingyi rarely heard him express his position, so he immediately answered.

There have always been Cuju competitions in Sui'an City. Since Ping'er likes it, how about we practice more and then go on the court and give it a try?

Is it okay? I...I can't.

For the first time, Du Jingyi saw hope in Shang Zhiping's eyes. Although it was later overshadowed by a strong sense of inferiority, she did not miss it.

So he answered in the affirmative.

You haven't tried it yet, how can you give up so easily? It's a good thing to like Cuju. One is to keep fit, and the other is to learn how to cooperate with others. It doesn't mean that you must win, but if If you really win, that’s not impossible.”

It was probably because Du Jingyi's tone of voice was very cute, so Shang Zhiping's body felt less tense.

My eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Liu, knew nothing about her son's love for Cuju.

When I heard the conversation between him and Du Jingyi, I felt both surprised and sad.

I have raised him for thirteen years, but I don’t understand him at all.

It's really sad.

Seeing his mother's mood drop, Shang Zhiping thought that what he said had made his mother sad again.

So he immediately became embarrassed and said.

Mother... son... son is just talking nonsense. My son likes to read and write. He will study hard when he goes back later!
