Chapter 11 Throwing a Tantrum

But it was moved away by Du Jingyi without leaving a trace.

He spoke with a polite smile on his face.

"It's better to be careful with the gift from the Emperor."

After hearing this, the two elders also nodded excitedly.

At this moment, they were absolutely on the same side as Du Jingyi, and naturally wanted to put the recent unpleasantness behind them.

Without mentioning anything else, just the ten thousand taels of gold bestowed by the emperor, if he gave them some, it would be enough to cover the expenses of his entire family for many days.

Thinking of this, the third old master's attitude was really polite this time.

"Sixth Brother's wife, you have to open our eyes later. This is a huge amount of gold. I'm afraid it will take more than ten people to carry the box containing it."

That greedy face looked particularly ridiculous in Du Jingyi's eyes.

Just now in Yunjin Courtyard, these people were talking nonsense about the couple, but now it was as if nothing had ever happened.

This guy is as shameless as ever.

So, pretending not to know, he deliberately teased the third old master and said.

"I'm afraid a dozen people won't be able to lift it. At least a hundred people will be needed to move it. This will also show the grace of the Heavenly Family, right?"

After hearing this, not to mention the Third Old Master, even the uncles, aunts, nephews and nieces nearby couldn't help but start to think about it.

The people in their two families have no means of livelihood.

These years, he has been living by begging for money in the Duke's Mansion, getting some food from the family, and taking advantage of his position to collect some tributes from outside.

A ton of gold.

Just by listening, they were already overjoyed, so everyone was looking forward to it.

Mrs. Wei stood aside with her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren, putting on a pretentious smile.

She was thinking about more than just the superficial reward, so she would not show as greedy as the third and fifth wives.

It’s a pity that although she can pretend, the grandchildren in front of her have noses that are not noses and mouths that are not mouths.

He is obviously only eight or nine years old, but he is very careful.

Especially when looking at people, even if he is much shorter, he still looks down on others with his eyes wide open.

It's so disgusting that it makes people feel disgusted at first sight.

Mrs. Gu's children and grandchildren didn't like these two kids at all.

Mrs. Wei was still pretending, but the brother and sister, instigated by someone, felt that their father should inherit the Duke's Mansion.

Therefore, they did not have a good attitude towards their sixth uncle who had been fighting outside for three years and had not returned.

He was even more displeased with the uncles and grandparents who surrounded Sixth Aunt.

If the occasion wasn't wrong, I'm afraid harsh words would come out of his mouth.

Especially Shang Zhiyin, who just turned nine years old.

She has always considered herself a daughter of a noble family, and she really looks down on those who would fall for a few pieces of silver.

Sister-in-law Liu watched coldly and said nothing.

Her husband has passed away for ten years, and there are no outstanding people in her family to support her.

Therefore, if you want to raise your son in the back house, you can only focus on being a good person.

Fortunately, her mother-in-law, Mrs. Gu, gave her most of her dowry before she passed away, otherwise, she would have lived a miserable life in this house.

She could endure hardship, but she was afraid that her son and unmarried sister-in-law would suffer, so they would avoid getting involved in these household chores if possible.

After a while, Shang Ji, who was seeing the person off, came back.

The third old lady immediately took a few steps forward, stretched her neck to look behind him, smiled so much that wrinkles appeared on her face, and asked.

"Liu Lang, why isn't anyone carrying a box in?"

Everyone knew what she meant.

Unfortunately, her plan failed.

Shang Ji just glanced at her indifferently, and then spoke in a way that deliberately provoked her.

"The storehouse in Xitang Courtyard is too small. It's not even big enough to store Mrs. Du's dowry, let alone these imperial gifts. I have ordered Luo Yuan to send the things to the General's Mansion. The storehouse there is big. Even if I make a few more military achievements and get some more rewards, it won't be a problem."

In one sentence, all those who were waiting to enjoy a good life were slapped in the face.

They had never even heard of a ton of gold before, but now they have passed it by. How can they not gnash their teeth?

"you!"

The fifth old master's round body suddenly jumped out from behind.

He almost knocked the third old lady down and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"What do you mean? Are you really going to move? There are so many people in our Duke's Mansion, and you're just going to ignore them?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

That scoundrel look has remained the same for decades.

Shang Ji was born tall and strong.

The way he looked down at the Fifth Old Master at this moment was just like the arhat in the temple looking down at all living beings.

Chilling.

"What a joke! My father is still the head of the Duke's Mansion. He is still alive. Is it my turn to take care of you and your children until the end of your life?"

When the words "take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life" were uttered, the old people in the third and fifth rooms would blush and feel angry.

Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with Shang Ji's disrespectful attitude.

They didn't dare to confront Shang Ji head-on, so they directed their attacks at the soft-hearted Shang Yukuan, who immediately fell to the ground and started rolling around.

"Brother, open your eyes and take a look. Without you here, we two brothers would be bullied to death. Goudan, do you care or not?"

Du Jingyi was not surprised at the name "Goudan", but Shang Yukuan's face turned red.

This was his nickname when he was in the countryside. Later, after he followed his father into the Duke's Mansion, he specially asked a master to change his name to his real name.

Yukuan sounds much better than Goudan.

But when Duke Shang was alive, he would often mention his nickname, so much so that the old men of the third and fifth rooms also developed a habit.

When he was about to throw a tantrum, he would start shouting "Goudan Goudan".

The only purpose was to make Shang Yukuan remember their past relationship and force him to agree.

Du Jingyi watched quietly.

These people seek death every now and then.

She has been married for three years and can always hear interesting stories about Beiyuan from time to time.

But seeing is believing, and today we have something good to see.

Sure enough, soon the fifth old man started crying and cursing.

"We finally survived those days of starvation and death. We thought we could live a good life now. But who would have thought... Look at your unfilial son. He is going to kill us."

The fifth old master howled non-stop, and the third old master was no less howling.

He pretended to hold his chest and began to gasp for breath.

"He is cursing us to death!"

It seemed that he was about to die in a fit of rage.

In addition, the two shameless old ladies, the third and fifth old ladies, let their hair down and started beating their chests and crying.
