Gu Shaoyu smiled, took the banknote, and asked someone to find Ni Yang and gave him the banknote.
Ni Yang was still surprised when he saw the number, but then he saw Xing Zhao's "heartbroken" look and he understood a little bit.
"It seems like this is our Young Master Xing giving the soldiers some extra food!"
Gu Shaoyu didn't want too many people to know about the wealth of the Du family and his wife, so he gave the credit to Xing Zhao.
"Well, Mr. Xing has a change of heart and has given money to the Tiger Guards to improve their conditions. So you can do whatever you want. Don't let other people know about this. Just do it quietly."
"Don't worry, General. I will make sure it's properly arranged."
A month later, some soldiers found that the clothes they used for training had become warmer and less bulky, and the armor did not seem as heavy as before.
There were those who were curious and chopped at it a few times with their swords, but there was no trace. Everyone was very surprised, so they found Lieutenant General Ni who was responsible for distributing these things, and got a reply.
"Maybe the military supply merchant had a change of heart, so he mixed a lot of fine steel into it, so naturally it is not as heavy as before."
"Oh, I see. Next time when he comes back to deliver military supplies, we must treat him to a good meal. We'll have plenty of braised pork ribs!"
Hahahaha, everyone laughed.
When Gu Shaoyu and Xing Zhao, who were not far behind them, saw this scene, the corners of their mouths slightly raised.
The soldiers in Wangzhou were happy about the new military supplies, and at the general's mansion in Sui'an City, thousands of miles away, it was also very lively at this moment.
The room was filled with so many people that the front hall of the general's mansion was almost bursting.
Du Jingyi thought that Aunt Xing would go north, and also thought that someone from Jinling's family would come, but he didn't expect that they all came.
The happy Fourth Aunt rushed into the crowd and refused to move even a step.
Du Jingyi was surprised, and then he saw Aunt Xing coming over and said with a smile.
"I know Shao Yu is not in Sui'an City. You are the only one supporting the whole general's mansion. You must be very tired. So you invited all the sisters-in-law. It's not a big honor, but it's better to have the elders at home."
"Yes, yes, Aunt is really thoughtful. Actually, I had thought about it before and wanted to ask if my family wanted to come with us, but I felt that mobilizing so many people would make them too tired, so I didn't say anything."
The aunt next to her heard this and said it deliberately with a complaining tone.
"Look, this is why you don't consider us as a family. Don't worry, I have packed a lot of luggage this time. I won't go back unless I stay here for a year or two!"
Her words made Du Jingyi happy from the bottom of his heart, and he quickly took his aunt's hand and spoke.
"A year or two is not enough. This time you come back, I will not let you leave unless you stay for three to five years!"
When the second aunt heard this, she also smiled gently, but she was not as emotional as the eldest sister-in-law and the fourth brother's wife, so she couldn't say many words that would be useful in a lively occasion.
"I have already written to my third brother's wife. She is now living happily with her daughter and son-in-law in Quanzhou. If the whole family can be reunited in Sui'an City, I'm afraid we will need four or five tables to accommodate the meal."
What my aunt said is true.
After hearing this, Du Jingyi quickly added.
"It's easy. I'll ask Butler He to add more. As long as the aunts are happy, these are all small matters."
The family is very harmonious, and it does feel a bit like the original Gu family.
"Where are Tai Ge'er and his brothers? Why can't I see them?"
Of course, the aunt was most concerned about Brother Tai, so she asked him immediately.
"I am taking classes with the teacher. The teacher is very strict and I cannot ask for leave to rest easily, so my aunt will have to wait for a few more days."
Hearing Du Jingyi's words, sister-in-law Chen Yinhua, who was following beside him, nodded in approval and said.
"When studying, remember not to be impetuous. This teacher is a little strict, which will be good for the children."
"That's what sister-in-law said!"
Upon hearing this, the aunt could only sigh and then said.
"Then let's wait until they finish their classes. Don't plan anything else for the evening. I haven't seen Tai Ge'er and the others for a long time. I don't know if the child still remembers me as his great-grandmother!"
"How could I forget? A few days ago, you asked me when you could go back to Jinling City, saying that you missed us."
"Good boy, I knew my love for him was not in vain!"
My aunt's face was filled with relief, and her longing for him over the years was evident in her words.
When people come to the house, it is natural to arrange for them to stay. Fortunately, the general's mansion is big enough, so even if twice as many people come, there will be no problem.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Madam, the old ladies' courtyards have been tidied up, and the luggage of each family has been sent over. The maids are packing. Do you want to go and take a look?"
Nanny Dou also had a festive look on her face, and visitors from the Gu family naturally had to be treated with care.
Seeing this, the aunt and others said.
"Let's go pack it ourselves. We have a lot of stuff, so it might take an hour or two. Think about what kind of meal to prepare for us. I miss Danruo's cooking skills."
"No problem, just prepare all the food that everyone used to love to eat."
After they left, Du Jingyi asked Aunt Xing.
"Aunt, are you going to stay at home or at the Xing family this time? My cousin used to stay at home."
"With such a large family, I won't go to the Xing family to help them. Besides, I don't have much to do with that sister-in-law. I just keep it to myself every time. If I have to live with her for years and make a living under her, your uncle will be sad if he knows."
She made such a joke, and Du Jingyi bent over with laughter.
She was envious of the mutual support between her uncle and aunt Xing, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, and immediately arranged a yard for Aunt Xing.
Looking at the family's forests and gardens, Aunt Xing couldn't help but sigh.
"I came here before for the Empress, but now the Empress Dowager has gone to Jinling City. We are really not destined to be together."
The two of them were close friends, and even though their statuses had changed, they still maintained a good relationship over the years. Therefore, Du Jingyi could understand why Aunt Xing had such feelings.
"Fortunately, it's not somewhere else, but in the Jinling Palace. When Aunt is done with her work here, she can go back and see him."
Aunt Xing patted the back of Du Jingyi's hand and nodded slightly in comfort.
"By the way, where is my daughter-in-law? Why doesn't she come?"
"Xia Meng followed Mr. Leng to Quanzhou. I didn't know about their relationship until Xia Meng left, so..."
