MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 329 Cousins

For two years, someone from the fifth house died in the first month. This was not a good sign, but the people in the fifth house didn't pay much attention to it, and people outside couldn't say anything.

But no one knew that Mrs. Guo, who had been buried with a scribble, was dug up again while the soil was still fresh, and disappeared into the vast night with her.

It seems to indicate that this year will be another uneventful year.

 Jinling City, Gu family.

Throughout the first month of the first month, we were in a state of welcoming them every day. Several aunts took the children to visit this relative and that relative. They were very unhappy.

Because Du Jingyi cherishes the days when he can still be reunited with his husband, he doesn't participate much. He spends most of his time in Qiwu Courtyard, living an ordinary and comfortable life with his husband and son Tai Geer.

On this day, the couple had just put Brother Tai to sleep when they saw Cherry walking in lightly from outside, and then she spoke in a lowered voice.

 “General, young madam, the old madam has invited me. She said she has a distinguished guest at home.”

Those who come these days are all people who are very close to the Gu family, but they have never been called "distinguished guests". Du Jingyi is very curious about what kind of people are called distinguished guests.

 As a result, Gu Shaoyu thought about it and said excitedly.

“It’s probably the eldest cousin and the fourth cousin who are here.”

 “Cousin-in-law?”

Suddenly Du Jingyi remembered what her fourth aunt had said to her before. The Gu family originally had four cousins, and the eldest cousin had a miscarriage due to excessive sadness, so she was somewhat curious and respectful towards these cousins. .

So he stood up and spoke in a low voice.

“General, let’s go and meet him quickly. Don’t keep your cousins ​​​​waiting for a long time.”

 Gu Shaoyu nodded, and then asked Yingying and the wet nurse waiting outside the door to keep an eye on Brother Tai, who was already sleeping soundly. The two of them went there.

In Qiude Courtyard, as soon as the couple entered the door, they saw that everyone's eyes were red, especially Mrs. Gu and the eldest aunt, who were crying so hard that they felt sad.

 I think I was thinking of the child that my cousin-in-law once had in her womb. If it could have been born safely, he would be seven or eight years old now, which is really a pity.

“The grandson (granddaughter-in-law) has met his grandmother, his aunts, his aunts, Sister Chen, and Sister Xu.”

The reason why they are called Ajie is because Mrs. Gu has strictly ordered that since the four cousins ​​​​have left the Gu family, they can no longer be treated by the previous titles. It is better to follow their surnames and call them Ajie. Show respect.

 Hearing such a title, Du Jingyi also knew Mrs. Gu's intentions, so he also respected the two former cousins ​​​​in the same way as the eldest sister-in-law in the family.

“Get up, get up, come and take a look. Your two sisters haven’t been back for many years. I think they are looking much better. I think the world outside is vast and they are living a comfortable life.”

Mrs. Gu sincerely wished them well and did not want them to hang themselves in the Gu family at such a young age, so she decided to let them leave at all costs.

Even for the two second cousins ​​​​and third cousins ​​​​who had remarried, Mrs. Gu was happy from the bottom of her heart that they could meet their sweethearts again, and privately gave them 5,000 taels of silver notes and two shops as dowries. . Therefore, if we occasionally meet at a banquet in Jinling City, we don't shy away from it and treat her as her mother's family.

As soon as the two sisters-in-law saw Gu Shaoyu, they also said with nostalgia on their faces.

“The little brat who followed the old marshal back then is now thirty, and life really flies by.”

The person who said this was the eldest cousin sister-in-law. She was the eldest among Gu Shaoyu's generation and was now thirty-two years old.

 She is born with a delicate appearance, but her charm is unusual.

Especially those pair of discerning eyes. Just a gentle glance at Du Jingyi made Du Jingyi have some thoughts of not daring to make mistakes. With such ability, if she is still in the Gu family, the Gu family will probably get worse in the future. The hair is so valuable.

 And this Sister Chen, the former eldest cousin-in-law, is indeed a figure in Jinling City.

The Chen family is a family of sages from generation to generation, so she has been reading poetry and books since she was a child, and she is very talented. After completing her studies, she taught and educated people in her own academy for seven or eight years.

Since she was a hairpin, people have been coming to propose marriage.

It was a pity that she declined them all. The reason was that she did not want to wrong herself, and she also did not want to sit in the one-third of an acre of land in the back house and do things to serve her husband, so she became an "older" woman after a delay in coming and going.

She was over 20 years old and had no place to live. The Chen family once thought that this girl was going to die alone, but who knew that she met the eldest son of the Gu family and developed such a fate.

 At the beginning, when Marshal Gu and Mrs. Gu heard that their eldest grandson had taken a fancy to this young lady from the Chen family, they came to propose marriage without saying a word. They didn't care what outsiders said, they just felt that they had found a treasure.

If such a determined woman could become the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu family, it would be an honor for the Gu family, and it would also be the key to the prosperity of the family in the future.

So the two got married late and had children late. They became parents for the first time in their twenties. Who knew that such a good thing could not be saved, and in the end it became a heartache for everyone.

In the Gu family, Gu Shaoyu, the first one he admired was his grandfather, Marshal Gu, and the second one was his former eldest cousin-in-law.

 Therefore, after hearing her elder-like tone, I didn’t feel aggrieved at all and said with a smile.

"Sister, you are right. I still remember that I was following you to ask you to sell a pair of calligraphy treasures outside for money. Who knew you were so stingy! Let alone the calligraphy treasures, you didn't even have a single character. Willing to give.”

Gu Shaoyu’s words suddenly reminded everyone of many things from the past.

Aunt Chen’s calligraphy is very valuable outside. Sometimes when their cousins ​​are short of money, they will come and beg Aunt Chen to write a copy and sell it outside to make money, so that they can live a more comfortable life.

It's a pity that after she discovered such a thing, she gathered all her brothers together, scolded them a lot, and gave them twenty ring feet each, saying that we should share blessings and share hardships. when.

The pain caused several people to scream. After all, they have also been masters, so they naturally know where to hit the most pain!

"You brat, I know you are thinking about it. Okay, for the sake of your wife and son, I specially sent you a painting and calligraphy this time. Just keep it and take a look. If I know you are going to Sell ​​it for money, let’s see how I deal with you!”

Even though Sister Chen and Gu Shaoyu are the same generation, they get along more like an elder nurturing a younger one.
