My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

The few people chatted and laughed and stayed at Du's house all day.

It was getting dark until Du Jingyi reluctantly took Brother Tai back to the General's Mansion. When he left, he looked back at his parents in front of the door and felt very sad in his heart.

Although the parents still look the same, if you look closely, there are still some lines between the eyebrows.

As the days pass, Tai Geer gradually grows up, and they gradually get older. I wonder if it is because of the cold weather, which always makes people feel a little sad about spring and autumn.

Du Jingyi sighed and said nothing more.

Brother Tai in her arms seemed to sense that his mother was not in a high mood, so he snuggled into her arms quietly, neither crying nor fussing.

Walking all the way to the General's Mansion, there was nothing special.

Unexpectedly, when he just got off the carriage, he saw someone approaching in a hurry not far away. Du Jingyi took a closer look and saw that it was her husband Shang Ji whom she had not seen for many days. Suddenly her melancholy expression became much better.

He hugged Brother Tai and shouted.

General!

Xu.

With the wind and snow coming, Shang Ji finally rushed back on this cold night. When he saw Du Jingyi and Brother Tai, his originally serious and resolute face melted away.

He stepped forward and asked.

But you just came back from the Du family?

Um.

I rushed so slowly that I arrived a step late. I originally wanted to celebrate my father-in-law's birthday.

Du Jingyi asked with some surprise.

General, do you remember?

Of course I won't forget it. Didn't my wife give us ninety-nine little golden pigs last year? What about this year?

Du Jingyi stretched out his hand and raised his son up, saying with a cheerful expression.

“Isn’t this year’s gift better than the little golden pig?”

Shang Ji laughed loudly when he heard this. If it weren't for the coldness on his body, he would have wanted to hold the mother and son in his arms and give them a good kiss.

Let's go back. I'll wash up first and then talk to you.

Well, General, can you eat it?

Nope.

Then let Danruo do more, I'll accompany you to use more.

OK.

The two of them had endless things to say like all young couples reunited after a long separation, but Brother Tai was a little sleepy, so he hung his head on Du Jingyi's shoulder, feeling a little drowsy.

Therefore, after returning to Xitang Courtyard, the wet nurse picked him up and said with a smile.

Slave, please take me back to bed first. I'll send you over tomorrow.

Although Du Jingyi also wanted the family of three to have a meal together, he also knew Brother Tai's habits, so he didn't delay much, nodded and said.

Go ahead and be careful not to let him get cold.

Yes, young lady.

After Brother Tai was taken away, the sound of washing in the ear room sounded again not long after, and the vacancy in Du Jingyi's heart was suddenly filled.

Sure enough, it is better for this person to be less separated, especially for a young couple like them, it is really as powerful as three autumns after not seeing each other for one day.

Cherry looked sideways at the side, and she was also happy about the young lady who couldn't suppress it. Not to mention the madam, even she was not used to it. The general had been gone for almost two months, and the whole general It's like there's something missing in the house, something's not quite right.

So she whispered.

Slave, let's go see how Danruo's food is doing?

Well, go ahead.

Then she turned around and went out. After a while, Shang Ji, who was steaming all over his body, came out of the penthouse.

Their house was renovated separately, so the wing room is connected to the inner room, but there is a door and a screen in the middle to block it, so that they will not have a headache after washing up in winter.

As always, Du Jingyi took the handkerchief and wiped the water stains on Shang Ji's hair, drying it bit by bit. The couple enjoyed this rare and comfortable life.

I thought it would take a few days for the general to come back.

Everything at hand was almost arranged. I saw that it was my father-in-law's birthday and I rushed back. Who knew it was still too late.

Dad would be happy if he knew that the general came back specially to wish him a birthday.

We'll go there again tomorrow. Although it's a day late, it's always good for the family to get together.

Um.

Du Jingyi was grateful for Shang Ji's sincerity. It was really not easy for a family like them to receive such attention and recognition, so he treated Shang Ji with even more attentiveness.

After a while, the food from the small kitchen was delivered.

They are all Shang Ji's favorite food, and Du Jingyi's was given a bowl of bird's nest soup.

Danruo said, Madam, you'd better not eat too much since you've already had your meal. Just finish the bird's nest soup. You'll have a good sleep this way.

Cherry explained, then took out a dish of charcoal-grilled venison from the food box and placed it specially in front of Shang Ji.

When the couple saw the deer meat, they immediately understood the intentions of the maids, especially Shang Ji. After looking at Du Jingyi with a raised eyebrow, he raised his hand and drank the glass of wine at hand.

In an instant, the body became much warmer, and his eyes became much hotter.

Seeing this, Du Jingyi glanced at Shang Ji shyly, then laughed in a low voice. The meaning was obvious. After Yingtao put down the food knowingly, he left softly.

The couple sat opposite each other and each had a drink.

It's still comfortable at home.

It was rare for Shang Ji to say such words. If Luo Yuan, who had followed him back, heard this, he would have scorned him. He obviously didn't feel any discomfort when he was in the army, so why did he become so comfortable at home?

Du Jingyi smiled and added.

It's comfortable in the general's home.

When Shang Ji heard this, he looked at her and smiled, and then started to eat happily.

He never doubted Dan Ruo's craftsmanship, but the roasted venison was too obvious. Therefore, he used most of the plate with rice, which made his already warm body even warmer from head to toe. got up.

Ask your maid to come in and take it away.

General, are you full?

full.

Then, when Cherry heard the commotion, she walked in, neatly put away all the things, and also lit a stick of moon incense. The smell immediately heated up the room.

The couple hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally they missed each other very much.

It was just that they had just eaten, and they didn't seem to have any evil thoughts, so the two sat under the bright window and talked.

Have everything been put away?

Well, I put them all away two days ago. I've been waiting for the general to come back.

That's good. Tomorrow I will go see my grandmother and go back to my father-in-law. The day after tomorrow, I will go to the palace to say goodbye to Your Majesty and the Queen, and then we can set off.
