Chapter 120 Mr. Qi (Collection plus more)

His sudden change of attitude left Du Jingyi speechless.

When Eighth Sister Xue Niang saw this, she could only sigh in her heart.

She was no longer surprised by such scenes and always felt that her nephew had lost himself in front of his sister-in-law.

Everything revolves around how to keep my sister-in-law from getting angry.

Sister-in-law Liu knew what was going on and was so angry and anxious that she almost couldn't speak.

Du Jingyi knew that some things could not be reversed in a day or two, so he did not force him, but just spoke calmly to Shang Zhiping.

"It's a good thing that she likes to read and learn. Ping'er knows how to share her mother's worries at such a young age. She is a good child."

There was no denial. This was the first time Shang Zhiping heard something without a denial.

For a moment, I didn't know how to answer.

After a short silence, he said with a red face.

"Sixth Aunt, if...if Sixth Uncle can find a good teacher for me, I will study hard every day and live up to everyone's expectations."

When he said this, it was obvious that he had made a great determination.

But Du Jingyi knew that these words were not sincere, so he did not respond, but patted him on the shoulder and spoke.

"I will tell your sixth uncle about this, but before that, you have to promise me one thing."

"Aunt, please speak."

Du Jingyi had a peaceful smile on his face, but his eyes were more determined than ever before, and he spoke to Shang Zhiping.

"Let's play a Cuju game first. If you win, you will be the great scholar Mr. Qi. I will invite your sixth uncle to come as well."

Shang Zhiping probably never thought that someone would speak to him like this.

He has to win a Cuju game before learning. Can he do it?

When he once again began to deny himself a thousand times in his heart, even Xue Niang beside him couldn't bear it anymore.

"Ping'er, please agree to the great scholar Mr. Qi. He is a man that the Crown Prince respects. If you can learn from him, you will definitely achieve great things in the future."

After hearing this, Shang Zhiping frowned and looked at his mother.

I saw that my eldest sister-in-law Liu's eyes were also full of excitement, and it was obvious that she also knew about Mr. Qi.

So, with the mentality that he would do anything to make his mother happy, he agreed.

When sister-in-law Liu saw that her son revealed his long-suppressed hobbies after just a few words from Du Jingyi, she was both shocked and impressed.

Du Jingyi saw what she was thinking, so he said something comforting.

"Sister-in-law, we have a long way to go. We can live our lives behind closed doors as a family. Just say whatever you want to say."

Sister-in-law Liu nodded, and her grateful eyes said it all.

They walked around the yard, stopping here and there, and everyone who saw it was very satisfied.

The construction of the greenhouse is also progressing steadily. Du Jingyi took a look and thought it should be completed by the end of the month.

This speed is indeed fast.

However, the only thing missing is the name of this courtyard.

As the main courtyard of the general's mansion, Du Jingyi still wanted to use Xitang Courtyard.

After all, it contains her nickname, which sounds comfortable.

However, I don’t know what they plan to do with the names of the courtyards of Dasao and Xuenniang.

This time, the eldest sister-in-law Liu gave her thoughts early on and spoke to the three of them.

"Fu Qiu is too sad, how about I change it to Lan Ming?"

We all have a strong desire to fly, and want to reach up to the sky to embrace the bright moon.

This is quite youthful and high-spirited.

Shang Zhiping didn't have much opinion and just nodded in agreement.

Xueniang thought about it and felt that the former Hanyiyuan was not bad sounding, so she decided to just keep the old name like the main courtyard of Du Jingyi and the others.

On the west wing, there are several more courtyards, which are named Xu Lai Courtyard, Huanyun Courtyard and Mengyu Courtyard respectively.

It sounds quite elegant and graceful, which is different from the solemnity of the general's mansion.

However, since Shang Ji has handed over all matters to her, there is no need to report the name of the courtyard in advance.

That night, Shang Ji came back from the military camp and heard about it, then he praised it.

"Madam, what a good name!"

It's so dry, no wonder Luo Yuan is disliked by Cherry. It's true that like master, like followers.

Not surprising at all.

After dinner, everyone left and the couple was the only ones left in the room. They played chess for a while out of boredom.

Neither of them was an expert at chess, so the game was evenly matched, and the more they played, the more excited they became.

While playing chess, Du Jingyi told Shang Zhiping what he had promised him a few days ago.

This made Shang Ji a little embarrassed.

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

"I do know this expert in cuju, but the great scholar Mr. Qi wants me to invite him to be Ping'er's teacher. Madam thinks highly of me. I heard that Mr. Qi dislikes military commanders like me the most, saying that we kill too many people."

Then he placed a piece and took a small piece of Du Jingyi's chess.

Du Jingyi was not angry and spoke quickly.

"General, rest assured. I will take care of this matter. I can invite the great scholar Mr. Qi, but I don't know this expert in cuju."

Shang Ji raised his eyebrows, seeming to be unconvinced.

Seeing his wife's calm face, he couldn't help but think about it.

Is the Du family so capable?

Even the great scholar knows him, and they have an unusual relationship?

However, what Du Jingyi was thinking in his mind was that the Du family did not know any great scholar, but Master Yan Zhiqing had once saved Mr. Qi's life.

So, got a promise.

So, it is really not difficult to invite him.

However, he had to finish the first thing first, so he looked at Shang Ji and asked curiously.

"Who is that expert? Do I know him?"

"Who else could it be? It can only be the world-famous Master Xing."

Du Jingyi burst out laughing when she heard her husband's teasing.

She actually underestimated her cousin Zhao, thinking that he was just cynical, but she didn't expect that he was actually a very capable person.

"That's really a coincidence. I noticed that Ping'er really likes cousin Zhao."

Shang Ji nodded, that’s indeed the case.

At least, Ping'er was much more relaxed in front of him than in front of herself.

The couple chatted and laughed, and the matter was arranged.

Anyway, in a few days, when they move to the general's mansion, Madam Xing will bring Xing Zhao to live with them.

It was only natural to teach Ping'er to play Cuju.

So, I didn't dwell on this matter too much.

Instead, he remembered another thing, so Du Jingyi told Shang Ji the news that the secret agents had heard in the past few days.

"I'm afraid Madam Wei wants to take action against my father-in-law."

Hearing this, Shang Ji's chess piece only paused for a moment, and then placed it down.

"Why?"

"Shang Zhihe's leg is probably incurable. We have a rule in Daxing Dynasty that if you have a disability, you cannot serve as an official or a general in the court. His future is ruined. General, what other options do you think he has?"
