My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Gu Shaoyu's words gave Du Jingyi a new direction. It made sense, but he didn't know if the children would be willing to take it.

The couple found the children together, and then asked a few questions. The leader, Brother Tai, looked at the expressions of his brothers and knew that they were very willing.

So he spoke.

Mom just needs to repair it. We brothers will move to the military camp, let alone two months, even two years will be fine.

His words made Du Jingyi both touched and disappointed. Sure enough, his son was easy to support when he got older, but at the same time, he was also a bird that couldn't be tied down. He was about to fly high.

Gu Shaoyu was keenly aware of the mood of the lady next to him, so even in front of the children, he still held her hand, coughed twice and said.

They move theirs, but the husband still has to come back to live there.

Hearing this, Du Jingyi suddenly felt warm. The two have been married for more than ten years, and Du Jingyi is both in his early thirties. He will be a grandmother in two years, and his husband will say this. Love words are naturally a bit embarrassing.

The brothers snickered twice, and then Gu Shaoyu stared back.

So, Tai Geer was very discerning and said with his fists clasped.

My son will take his brothers back to pack their bags. We will go to the military camp early tomorrow morning. We will not delay mother's yard work!

Du Jingyi was still very satisfied with his vow, but he immediately added something.

It will be repaired in two months at most. You should come back and live there then.

Being as smart as Brother Cong, he naturally knew what his mother meant, so he took a step forward and pretended to be aggrieved.

Then mother, you have to repair it quickly. Others don't know, but your son will miss you very much!

In a word, his diligence was sacrificed, and he betrayed all his brothers, so when he turned around, the green eyes of his brothers were about to kill people. It's a pity that Brother Cong is fearless!

After a day of hard work, Du Jingyi naturally wanted to take a good bath. Gu Shaoyu took the children for a walk. Although he didn't do much, there was still dust on his body, so he had to rub Du Jingyi's bathtub and take a dip. .

After everything was tidied up, Du Jingyi sat on the couch and let Yingying and Shuxiu dry her hair bit by bit. Of course, she was not idle either. She lit the lamp and started reading the account book.

While she was reading and sketching, when Gu Shaoyu also came out of the shower, her affairs became confused.

He easily took the comb from the hands of the two maids, and Gu Shaoyu gently combed Du Jingyi's hair. They had been on the road these days, and the couple both shouldered the burden of the family, so they hadn't had this kind of comb for a long time. Time for tenderness.

Yingying and Shuxiu also understood, so they immediately went out, leaving only the two of them in the dormitory, chatting.

I just read the account book. Everything in Sui'an City has been left to my parents to take care of. We only need to get dividends every year. In one year, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver can't be lost. Cezhou's business It was left to me. If it is managed properly, it will have 70% to 80% of the income in Sui'an City. Plus the money I brought here this time, there is enough money in the account, so I plan to repair the yard at the same time. We bought the houses on the left and right sides and at the back together and renovated them at the same time. This way, after a few years, when the children get married, they will have their own courtyards and they don’t have to stay together.”

How much does it cost to put together so many things?

Based on Cezhou's wages and house sales, it's estimated to cost six to seven hundred thousand taels.

Six to seven hundred thousand taels, this is a lot of money. If it were used in the Huben Army, the military flag would be replaced by a slip of brocade.

Therefore, although Gu Shaoyu felt some pain in his body, he thought that without his wife, there would be no such treasures, so he nodded happily and said.

Watch it, Madam, you are the housekeeper and you make the decision! There is just one thing!

What?

Brother Tai's yard doesn't need to be very luxurious. In a few years, he will go to Jinling City.

Hearing this, Du Jingyi's frustration rose again.

Indeed, other children can be said more easily, but Brother Tai has never belonged to their couple. His mission is to shoulder the responsibility of the entire Gu family, so naturally he has to return to Jinling City to succeed the Gu family's father. This honor must not be achieved. It's only in their generation.

Therefore, he sighed deeply and said helplessly.

My children are growing up. When they were young, I always looked forward to growing up faster, but now I think how great it would be if they could grow up a few years later.

Gu Shaoyu held her in his arms, and then spoke softly to comfort her.

The children will eventually leave home when they grow up, but I won't. I will always be by your side.

Du Jingyi nodded lightly, looked at Gu Shaoyu with raised corners of his mouth, and looked up with a hint of newlywed beauty in his eyebrows, then raised his head and asked.

General, you should live longer. You are ten years older than me. Since we have made this promise, you must keep your word.

Don't worry, these days, I see that Brother Wen and Brother Zhong are both good seedlings. I need to train them more. When they can be independent, I will go back and accompany you to travel around. Let’s go and don’t worry about anything outside!”

Anyone who hears this will be happy.

The couple hugged each other and slept until dawn.

On the second day, Gu Shaoyu got up early and took the children to the military camp to settle down first, while Du Jingyi called all the shopkeepers in Cezhou.

There were more than thirty people standing in the front hall.

The Du family and the Han family both invested heavily in Cezhou, so they naturally needed some powerful people to control the situation, so they transferred a lot of people from other places at that time, so everyone who can stand in front of Du Jingyi today is the best. A capable person.

The head shopkeeper, whose surname is Zheng, is the most stable person. He has basically been with the Du family since Mr. Du made his fortune. Over the past few decades, the Du family has been really good to him. As long as it is the business he handles, basically every business is done. You can get five points of profit at the end of the year.

Although five points is not a lot, it can't stand up to the Du family's huge family business. Therefore, shopkeeper Zheng has made a lot of money in his own pocket over the years, but he has never been seen as arrogant when he became powerful, and he has always been humble. He looks cautious, which is rare in shopping malls.

Uncle Zheng, you are here.

He is older than Mr. Du, so it is natural for Du Jingyi to call him Uncle Zheng.

Old Zheng has met Madam.

The Zheng family had canceled all their slave status with the help of Master Du a few years ago, so since then, Master Du has not allowed him to call himself an old slave, so his phrase Old Zheng is also appropriate for Du Jingyi.
