MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 48 rush back

Chapter 48 Rushing back

Based on this and the delivery of medicine last night, Qingtao recognized this second uncle from the bottom of her heart.

 In the past, it was because of my status, so I had to be respectful.

 But after today, I am sincerely convinced.

So he nodded and spoke in a lowered voice.

“My slave has put something on the silver. It’s just that it’s hard to explain to the general yet, but please believe that our young lady can handle the matter properly.”

The reason why Yingying said this was because he wanted to use Shang Ji to secure his young wife's rights in the back house.

 After all, the young lady has good intentions, but if things continue like this, it may not necessarily be a good thing for the young lady.

Shang Ji is not stupid either. Naturally, he heard something fishy, ​​and then he said to Luo Yuan.

"Go and invite Butler He and Aunt Dou to the study. I have something to say to them."

 “Yes, General.”

Luo Yuan turned around and left Xitang Courtyard with broad steps. In the courtyard, only Shang Ji and the maid Ying Tao were left.

 For a while, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Cherry had no intention of climbing up, so she felt very uncomfortable being alone with the general.

Shang Ji also noticed her awkwardness, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and then he gave instructions.

"Take good care of the young lady. When she wakes up, call someone to call me in the study."

 “Yes, General.”

 Subsequently, Shang Ji also left Xitang Courtyard, thought about it and went straight to Fuqiu Courtyard.

　　Although Cherry didn't say it clearly, Shang Ji knew what it meant.

Thinking of his nephew Shang Zhiping, Shang Ji felt a little worried, fearing that Du Jingyi would become him next.

 Therefore, I had to make a special trip to my sister-in-law’s yard for a brief chat.

Cherry patted her chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

I have to say that she has lived for more than ten years, and she has met a lot of people with her husband, wife and young lady.

 But every time I see my general, I still feel an unknown fear.

This kind of fear is not the kind of fear of being exposed after doing something bad, but more of awe from the heart.

This may be caused by the anger left in him after many years of fighting on the battlefield.

Although I have restrained myself on weekdays, it will always spread out unconsciously.

Especially when he is angry, Cherry feels more intimidating than the glaring King Kong in the temple.

　　Turn around and look at the main room where there was still no movement. Cherry continued to sit on the porch, embroidering her handkerchief.

　　In Fuqiu Courtyard, sister-in-law Liu was teaching her son calligraphy.

Seeing Shang Ji striding in, he naturally knew his purpose, so he said to Shang Zhiping.

“Ping’er, I’ve met your sixth uncle.”

 “Hello, Uncle Six.”

"Um."

 Seeing that Shang Zhiping was there, Shang Ji restrained his outgoing temper.

Although there was not much movement on his face, it could be seen that he was still very concerned about Shang Zhiping.

 “Are you practicing calligraphy?”

"yes."

His tone has softened a lot, but Shang Zhiping still couldn't help but feel a little scared.

 He lowered his head submissively, not daring to look directly into Shang Ji's eyes.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu, the sister-in-law, felt a lot of distress in her eyes, so she sighed slightly and said patiently.

"Ping'er, please go out and take a rest first. I have something to say with your sixth uncle."

"Mother..." Shang Zhiping's eyes seemed to express that he didn't want to leave, but he didn't know how to express it.

Sister-in-law Liu smiled slightly and said.

 “Go ahead, it’ll be okay.”

Seeing this, Shang Zhiping nodded hesitantly, then lowered his head and left the main room.

 Seeing him like this, Shang Ji felt like he hated iron for not being able to become steel.

 But I can think of what happened before, but I can’t argue with anything.

On the other hand, Sister-in-law Liu didn't want her brother-in-law to stare at her son like this all the time, so she changed the topic and asked.

“But now that we know that the fifth house is here to cause trouble, do you have any solution for the younger siblings?”

"Um."

"Hey, it's my fault that I haven't talked about this matter with her properly, and she is young and a person who doesn't worry, so she thinks things are simple. In the future, I will deal with the three-bedroom and five-bedroom apartments, 伱Just talk to her and ask her to pay more attention to moving."

Sister-in-law Liu's words directly confirmed Shang Ji's guess.

Sure enough, this is what Maid Cherry means.

 So, after thinking about it, Shang Ji said it bluntly.

“Sister-in-law, I don’t think Mrs. Du is easy to handle. Since she is sure to deal with it this time, let her do it. If you keep protecting her like this, she won’t grow up.”

Although the words were spoken by Du Jingyi, his sister-in-law Liu also heard it, and it also contained Shang Ji's worries about his nephew Shang Zhiping.

It’s easier to talk about other things, so I talked about this all at once.

 Suddenly he touched the back of his sister-in-law Liu's skin.

His eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at his brother-in-law Shang Ji and said a little unreasonably.

“What’s the matter? Now is my sixth brother coming to teach me how to be a good person?”

 “Sister-in-law misunderstood.”

"Misunderstanding? It's simply ridiculous. My brother and sister didn't ask anything clearly, so they rushed to send one hundred taels of silver to the fifth house. Seeing that the money is so good, will those people let it go easily in the future? Dongyuan finally got through it Are these few years of peace going to be ruined in her hands like this?"

Sister-in-law Liu's words were urgent and sharp.

But her original intention was not to blame Du Jingyi, she was just saying something in a hurry, but it came out in her head.

Even after she said it, she felt it was inappropriate.

 But for so many years, she had gritted her teeth and kept doing this, refusing to give up.

 The expression he looked at Shang Ji was also full of wariness and anger.

When Shang Ji saw this, he became angry.

After all, he is a general giving orders outside, and he does not have to be controlled by the women at home.

And if you look closely, this matter was caused by the excessive protection of the cubs by the sister-in-law Liu, so Shang Ji refused to give in.

 Said with a cold tone and face.

"Sister-in-law, let me ask you, you are able to deal with people with three or five bedrooms, but what will be the result? Will everyone in Dongyuan have to stay here all their lives and not go out? Everyone will have to compromise and avoid it. ? Everyone has to rely on you to protect them? "

"you!"

Sister-in-law Liu was immediately angered by Shang Ji's question.

"Okay, okay, what did your eldest brother and mother-in-law tell you when they left? Now that he has become a general praised by everyone, do you want to bring this prestige to your home?"

"Sister-in-law! When have I ever shown authority at home? If I were really that kind of person, I wouldn't have allowed you to teach Ping'er like this. Look at his look. If my eldest brother were still here, I would feel so distressed. ?”

 When Shang Zhiping was young, he was very clever, cute and lively.

Everyone who saw him praised him as a good boy sent from heaven.

 But what now?

Even the servants in the mansion are more generous than him, let alone the grandchildren of Mrs. Wei next door.
