My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Whoever addressed her disrespectfully as Zong Liangdi actually gave her a lot of face.

Therefore, she is in the East Palace and is in the limelight these days.

The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month is the day of the East Palace annual banquet.

Du Jingyi and others went to the banquet with Shang Ji, and when they entered the flower hall, they saw Zong Liangdi standing next to the prince with a smile.

She smiled generously and decently, and spoke loudly, but she stole the spotlight from the concubines beside her, so when they were in the dark, the concubines were also itching their teeth with hatred, but because of the bad occasion attack.

When they arrived, they happened to see this scene.

Du Jingyi's eyes couldn't help but deepen. This person was inseparable from Wei Jialian before entering the East Palace, so he had to pay more attention to avoid getting into trouble and adding an enemy to the general's mansion. It’s just that the gain outweighs the loss.

So, he smiled and said to the people on the left and right.

Cousin Lang and Xue Niang should be more careful today.

Sister-in-law Six, don't worry, I won't say a word nonsense.

Xue Niang has learned a lot from Mrs. Gu these days, so she naturally knows that it would be wrong to say anything in this situation, and it is best to keep her mouth shut.

Gu Xiaolang, who was standing on the other side, was dressed very delicately today, so her appearance attracted a lot of attention.

Don't worry, cousin, Xiao Lang understands.

From the bottom of her heart, Gu Xiaolang envied Du Jingyi's ability to receive the loving treatment of cousin Shao Yu. Naturally, she also wanted to have such a wishful husband.

These days, whether at home or at banquets, she is facing the couple every day. If she still doesn't understand that she can't get in, then she is blind.

That's why she asked her mother and fourth aunt to dress her up today. After all, they understood the meaning of the East Palace New Year's Banquet.

Du Jingyi glanced at Gu Xiaolang and felt that it was not good for him to say some words, so he didn't talk nonsense.

After saying Yeah, he led the two of them into the flower hall, where they met with acquaintances and exchanged polite greetings.

In the East Palace, the person Du Jingyi knew the most was the Crown Princess.

Today is the annual banquet in the East Palace, so the Crown Princess naturally has to deal with everything.

However, when the three of them appeared, the Crown Princess saw it, so she gave a few instructions to the nanny beside her, and saw the nanny rushing over.

Young Madam, Miss Gu, Miss Eight, and the Crown Princess invite you.

This move allowed others to see the importance the Crown Princess attached to these people, or the importance the East Palace attached to the General's Mansion, and Du Jingyi nodded and said something.

Thank you, mama.

Several people were led by the nanny to go to the Crown Princess, and there were still some ladies standing beside her at the moment. The other Du Jingyi was only a one-sided acquaintance, but she knew Mrs. Guo better.

Next to Mrs. Guo was Guo Jiasilang's mother, Lin, who was also looking at the three of them with a smile.

My wife has met the Crown Princess and all the ladies.

My daughter has met the Crown Princess and all the ladies.

In fact, they were not too late, but everyone at the East Palace New Year Banquet was always more active, so they arrived earlier than them.

Mr. Liulang, please get up quickly. You are still pregnant, so don't be too polite.

The Crown Princess was polite, her eyebrows were curved, and she didn't look sad at all.

Sure enough, this is the magnanimity of a royal wife or a crown princess. She can personally escort Liangdi to her husband and smile at her without changing her expression.

Du Jingyi asked himself that he couldn't do this.

Thank you, Princess, for your concern.

Where is your grandmother? Why didn't you see her coming?

Mrs. Guo was most concerned about her elder sister, so she naturally asked if she didn't see anyone.

Seeing this, Du Jingyi replied honestly.

Grandma has been a little tired these past two days, so she is resting in the mansion today. Before she came here, she specifically asked her to confess to the prince and princess.

Oh, can I ask the imperial doctor to come over and take a look?

Back to the Crown Princess, I've asked Dr. Wang to come over and take a look. He said it's nothing serious and he just needs to rest for two days.

Seeing this, the princess felt relieved.

The clothes on Du Jingyi were not as thick as they were a few days ago, so the bulge of her belly could be seen now. Seeing her like this, Mrs. Guo also felt emotional.

You should also take good care of yourself. The next few months will be very tiring.

Mrs. Guo has given birth to four children, three sons and one daughter, so she is very familiar with what it feels like to be pregnant, so she said this.

Thank you, Madam Guo, for your concern. I understand.

Yeah, good boy.

After saying this, Mrs. Guo turned her eyes to Gu Xiaolang and Shang Xueniang next to her, with smiles on her face.

Gu Xiaolang had always been outstanding in her eyes, but it was Xue Niang next to her who made people shine.

Compared to the day of the Lantern Festival, there has been a big change. This person's talent and talent may not have made much progress, but he seems to be much more relaxed than before.

Standing next to Du Jingyi and Gu Xiaolang, although they are not as brilliant as the two, they still show the well-behaved and quiet nature of their daughter's family.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Guo's third wife Lin couldn't help but have a bit of satisfaction in her eyes.

The Guo family is prosperous and there are six grandchildren in this generation. Guo Silang is one of them and he is also her youngest son.

The eldest daughter-in-laws in the family are already carefully selected smart people, so she really doesn't have many requirements for the younger daughter-in-law.

Just being able to live a good life with my son.

At the beginning, her parents-in-law also told her that they wanted to get engaged to the Gu family, but she was not very happy about it.

Because everyone in the Gu family has died for the country, and based on the friendship between her parents-in-law and the Gu family, if her daughter-in-law gets married, she is the mother-in-law who will be wronged.

But due to the rules at home, she couldn't refute it.

Unexpectedly, after going on the Lantern Festival canal tour a few days ago, she was told that the eighth lady of the merchant might be interested in forming a good relationship with her son, so she was a little flattered.

Therefore, I feel more satisfied than anyone else, and now I see that he is a well-behaved and sensible person.

Although she may not necessarily be outstanding, such a temperament means that she will not cause trouble in the back house. Therefore, from this point alone, Mrs. Guo San is fond of Xue Niang.

So, he took a step forward and asked proactively.

This must be Miss Eight, she was rarely seen before.

Du Jingyi understood the importance of the Guo family to Xue Niang, and also knew that the Guo family would definitely be present at today's East Palace New Year's Banquet, so he put some effort into her dress today.

It has the beauty of a young lady from an aristocratic family and the elegance of a daughter's family.
