Du Zhifu took the gift box packed by Yi Yami, the man paid the money, and the two of them rode their horses to Shandandan Village.
Yi Yami took a look and saw Qian Fugui coming down from the third floor and whispering something to her.
Yi Yami understood in her heart that it was Mr. Du’s 70th birthday.
"Fugui, go and notify your cousin and uncle and see if they should send any gifts. Although you are not in-laws yet, as the man, you should be more proactive and positive to leave a good impression." Yiyami instructed.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Qian Fugui went out.
Du Zhiqian and Du Zhilan also packed their things at Yi Ji and took them back.
When I got home, I found that Du Zhifu had arrived home earlier and had also bought some food from Yi Ji.
Mr. Du didn't say anything. He was very happy as long as his daughters came back.
As soon as Du Zhiqian arrived home, she started to attack Du Zhifu. "Oh, my sister, long time no see. You are no different from when you first got married?"
Du Zhifu touched her face and hair. "Really? Sister, do you also think that I haven't changed much since I was young?"
Du Zhiqian was so angry that she almost died. "Who said anything about your appearance? I was talking about your wealth. I see that your poor husband is still as poor as ever."
"Ah? Third brother is okay. His monthly commission plus the shop under his name are more than enough for the two of us to have food and clothing." Du Zhifu didn't understand why Du Zhiqian was so hostile to her.
"Really? Where's the child? You haven't given birth to one yet, have you?" Du Zhiqian stared into Du Zhifu's eyes.
Du Zhifu was hurt. Not having children has always been a concern for her. Whenever Du Zhiqian mentioned it, she always felt unhappy.
Du Zhifu's husband, Huo Xikai, stood up and said, "Don't worry about it, auntie. As for whether or not she has children, I love Fumei equally. If she doesn't have children, she can avoid the pain of childbirth."
What Du Zhiqian hated most was the relationship between Du Zhifu and Huo Xikai. She married a husband who, although his family was wealthy, did not pay any attention to her but spent every day in the concubine's room. Although she had some tricks and had her own child, her husband still hated her. Geng Tianbao did not even come back with Mr. Du to celebrate his birthday.
As they were talking, a female voice sounded at the perfect time, "I'm late. I didn't expect my elder sister and younger sister to be here!"
Du Zhilan walked in and asked someone to put the food box down.
"Oh, you're back!" Mr. Du looked at his second daughter.
"Dad, how are you?" Du Zhilan held Mr. Du's hand and asked eagerly.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine. It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back. Didn't Sun Qitai come back with you?" Mr. Du looked outside the door.
"No, my master is busy with his official duties and can't come back with me to celebrate my father's birthday, but he asked me to bring back some gifts." Du Zhilan's behavior was in line with the etiquette and manners of a woman from an official family.
"I've received your kindness. Please keep busy." Mr. Du patted his daughter's hand.
Du Zhiqian and Du Zhilan had never gotten along since they were little. Now that the sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time, they wanted to say a few words. "Sister, you look well-maintained~"
Du Zhifu also walked up to talk to her second sister, "Second sister, you look very good."
Du Zhilan greeted the two of them tactfully, "Sister, you look much better than before. I guess your relationship with your brother-in-law is better now. A good relationship between husband and wife is so nourishing." Then she turned to Du Zhifu and said, "Your hands feel warm. I guess you're in better shape now."
Her words made both of them very happy.
Mr. Du looked at his daughters with satisfaction.
"Grandpa, Grandpa!" Du Jinzhi's voice came from outside the door.
Mr. Du stood up after hearing this.
After saying hello to a few aunts, Du Yinye followed Mr. Du to see it.
Du Jinzhi was seen holding a baby girl in her left hand and holding a baby boy in her left hand, all dressed in gorgeous clothes. "Sister, Grandpa! I'm back!"
Master Du happily took the little girl from her arms and said, "Come, Grandpa, hold her~"
Du Jinzhi also had a large family of servants behind her.
"My dear, you are walking too fast and you don't even wait for me!" Du Jinzhi's husband is a wealthy man from Pengzhou, named Jiang Ao.
At this time, Jiang Ao was carrying a lot of gifts in his hands. Seeing Master Du looking at him with a smile, he bowed and said, "Hello, Grandpa."
"Jiang Ao is here. Come on, put down your things and come in for tea." Mr. Du was holding Jiang Ao and Du Jinzhi's youngest daughter, Jiang Pingting.
He was also holding Du Jinzhi's eldest son Jiang Feilong's hand.
Jiang Ao responded with a "OK" after hearing this.
Du Yinye took the two children to play aside.
Du Jinzhi met several aunts and greeted them all.
Master Du said to the others, "Why didn't you bring the little one back?"
"The girl was sick, so she didn't come. Xiaozu had to prepare for the exam, and I didn't want to distract him, so I didn't tell him." Du Zhiqian explained.
Mr. Du's eyes darkened when he heard this.
"What about you?" Mr. Du looked at his second daughter, whom he was always most satisfied with.
"Jinzhu is also preparing for the exam. Jinzhu said he can't spare the time, but he prepared a gift in advance and will give it to you later." Du Zhilan smiled apologetically.
Master Du sighed, "Okay."
The family had dinner together and then went to their respective rooms to rest.
"Sister, I heard that you have a lover?" Du Jinzhi talked to Du Yinye while coaxing Jiang Pingting and Jiang Feilong to sleep.
