My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

The general is a talker again, isn't he?

The couple looked at each other and smiled, always showing some warmth in their ordinary days.

The eighteenth day of the first lunar month.

Everyone in the Gu family was full of joy, for two things.

One is to formally introduce Du Jingyi to all relatives and friends in the name of a family dinner, and the other is to celebrate Brother Tai who is nine months old since his birth. By the way, in a few days, Gu Shaoyu will They were about to go north, but mother and son stayed in Jinling City.

Therefore, there are quite a few guests coming today.

There are relatives of the Gu family, Mrs. Gu and several aunts and uncles' natal family, and naturally there are also those close friends who the Gu family has the most contact with on weekdays.

Since getting ready, cars and horses have stopped in front of the Gu family's house one after another.

The first to arrive must be the clan members of the Gu family.

Among them, the seventh old man was the leader, followed closely by the third old man and others, followed by their family members. Originally, the Gu family had a large population, so this time, dozens of people came to the door.

Such a battle would outweigh the relatives from the former Duke's Mansion and the Du family.

Everyone in the Duke's residence is not from a high background, so even if they enjoy high positions, they don't necessarily have any powerful relatives. The Du family is a businessman, so naturally there won't be any arrogant people.

But the relatives in the Gu family are different from the past. They all seem to have some abilities. Even the seventh old man and the third old man among them look very energetic regardless of their age.

Sister-in-law, are we late?

It's never too late, it's never too late, it's just right.

The seventh old man decisively handed over the position of head of the family, and Mrs. Gu did not feel sorry for him. In the eyes of outsiders, this scene was a rare example of deep brotherhood and mutual help among the family.

Du Jingyi had already heard Gu Shaoyu and his fourth aunt talk about a lot of things at home before, so he still knew everything he needed to know.

Marshal Gu is the only bloodline of the elder, and the others are his cousins. There are many people here who take official career as their own responsibility, and some who take the head of the family as their own responsibility, and each has his own way of living.

After hundreds of years of being a prominent family, the Gu family has accumulated a lot of wealth.

For example, in Marshal Gu's branch, more than 70% are inherited from the family, and about 30% are from military rewards. But even so, they are not necessarily the richest among several families.

If we really want to talk about it, among the Gu family today, the lineage of the Seventh Old Master has to be the most powerful.

He had three sons with his deceased seventh wife, some of whom were engaged in literature, martial arts, and business, and all of them achieved very good results in their respective fields.

For example, their family's Mr. Gu is the current prefect of Jinling City and is in charge of the people. Their family's Mr. Gu Er is the current commander of Jinling City, guarding the peace of the city. Their family's Mr. Gu San is responsible for the people in Jinling City. The famous wealthy businessman, relying on the reputation of the Gu family, is engaged in many and wide industries, and he also has the title of imperial merchant, which is unmatched by others.

Today, these three gentlemen came together. Du Jingyi didn't know the other two, but Mr. Gu San came from the same business world as her, so he naturally knew her.

Outsiders all know that there are four rich mountains in Jinling City, Gujiashan, Yanjiashan, Liujiashan and Tongjiashan. The last two here are of course unconcerned, and the first two are the three masters Gu San and Yan Zhiqing. .

However, Master Gu San is obviously more prestigious than Yan Zhiqing, who has never seen the dragon. Or it can be said that Yan Zhiqing only seeks wealth, but Master Gu San not only seeks wealth, but also seeks the absolute king in the road to wealth. status.

Therefore, if you want to do good business in Jinling City, you have to pay homage to Mr. Gu San.

Perhaps because they have also been involved in the business world, they are naturally more sensitive than others, so Du Jingyi and Mr. Gu San looked at each other, and they were both unable to see each other's depth.

Mrs. Gu's words interrupted the exchange of glances, and she quickly introduced them.

The child has been ill a few days ago and has not come out to see everyone. Now he is completely fine. Naturally, he has to recognize his relatives. Jingyi, this is your third uncle, this is your seventh uncle, who are you? The first are your uncles and aunts, and the following are Shao Yu's cousins, please meet them all.

Yes, Grandma.

Du Jingyi followed the rules and bowed when he stepped forward, saying hello one by one.

Among these people, only the seventh old man is following his lead, so if she gets his approval, then naturally no one in the Gu family will make things difficult for her.

After bringing the tea, Du Jingyi handed it to the seventh and third old ladies respectfully.

My great-niece has met my seventh uncle and my third uncle. Please have tea.

The two of them were decades older than her, so naturally they would not embarrass her in this situation, especially since the seventh old man had prepared something and said with a chuckle.

You are new here, and I don't know what you like, so I asked the eldest daughter-in-law to prepare two boxes of jewelry for you. See if you like it. If you feel good about it, just tell your aunt in the lobby.

Thank you, uncle Qitang.

When elders give gifts to younger ones, they should not refuse them.

It's just that Du Jingyi didn't expect that he would spend a lot of money. When he opened the door, there were two boxes of jewelry. Even though Du Jingyi hadn't seen it now, he knew that the items were not bad.

Is this behavior to show off the wealth and strength of Yi Er and his family?

The third old lady and others on the side were used to it. Although they were also wealthy, they were still far behind the seventh old lady's room, so they just gave them a red envelope and passed it off.

Du Jingyi did not treat him unfairly because of the thickness of the things given by his second elder, which made everyone quite satisfied.

The husband's family might not be able to tell, but the women in the back house knew something about her bending down and saluting, so the aunt in the lobby asked a question with some uncertainty.

Has this Shao Yu got a wife again?

Her eyes are really poisonous, but her belly is indeed bigger than when she gave birth to Brother Tai, so it's not unusual for her to be noticed.

Seeing this, the eldest aunt smiled and stood beside her and said.

My cousin's eyes are indeed very powerful. It was just for her to raise the baby that she couldn't go out a few days ago. Now she has been safe for more than three months, and now she shows her face in front of everyone.

After hearing this, everyone's expressions were filled with excitement.

It wasn't that he wanted to covet the property of the old Marshal Gu, so he was a little surprised, but he felt that this sect had been withering for a long time and was about to lose.

As soon as this daughter-in-law got married, she gave birth to children one after another, which really put the situation in order. She was really lucky!
