Chapter 58: The Couple (Fifth update)
"Madam, the general is back."
Huh? Why are you back now? Du Jingyi thought that her husband would stay in the military camp before the 19th.
So he took a look at the food on the table, which was obviously not enough, and immediately said to Cherry.
"Hurry up and ask Danruo to prepare some more, and send some that the general likes and can fill his stomach."
"yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Ji walked in from outside.
His complexion looked fine, but his clothes were a little dusty.
This is inevitable when riding back on horseback.
If the former Du Jingyi saw this, he would definitely ask him to clean up the side room thoroughly before entering the main house.
But now, if I really opened my mouth, would it make me seem less virtuous?
If I anger my husband, then my plan to go home will be in vain. Wouldn't that be a waste of time?
Thinking of this, Du Jingyi's smile was so sincere and warm that it made Shang Ji feel a little scared.
I couldn't help but think, I was away from home for only one night, how come my wife seemed like a different person?
But then she remembered what she said to her before she left the house yesterday, and she understood everything at once.
Looking at her "diligently" walking forward, he immediately spoke.
"The General is back."
"Um."
"Can I have lunch? I'm just about to eat."
"I rushed back as soon as the training was over, and I haven't eaten yet."
"Okay, I'll ask the kitchen to prepare more. Has Guard Luo come back with us? Should we prepare some for him as well?"
Du Jingyi's voice was not loud, but Luo Yuan, who was outside the door, had good hearing and could hear it clearly, so he shouted loudly.
"Thank you Madam."
Upon hearing this, Du Jingyi couldn't help but chuckle, and then said to the maid Yingtao.
"Tell Danruo to prepare some for Guard Luo as well."
"Yes, Madam."
Cherry was still very well behaved in front of Shang Ji and Du Jingyi.
But when she walked out the door and saw Luo Yuan's face, she couldn't help but frown, as if he had done something wrong.
But without saying a word, he went to the small kitchen at the back.
Luo Yuan looked at Li Zhu beside him innocently, then asked in a low voice.
"Is there something wrong with the young lady's brain? Why does she look at me like I'm on guard against thieves every day?"
Lizhu glanced at Cherry's figure gradually moving away in the corridor, and then turned her head to look at Luo Yuan.
After a while he explained.
"Maybe it's because you don't look pleasing. I remember Sister Cherry once said that men with thick eyebrows are very philandering. Guard Luo, take a look at your eyebrows. Wow, they are really thick."
After hearing what she said, Luo Yuan was suddenly speechless.
Isn't it said that one should not judge a person by his appearance? Besides, the Luo family all have thick eyebrows, and their grandfather and father have never been seen as philandering.
So he snorted twice and said.
"Your sister is unreliable. She has not even spoken to me for a few words, but she already judges people by appearance. How boring! I must let her know that it doesn't matter if her eyebrows are thick. A person who is supposed to be unfaithful will not be unfaithful because of thick eyebrows, and a person who is not unfaithful will not be unfaithful because of thin eyebrows!"
Li Zhu felt dizzy after listening to his confusing sentences, so she spread her hands and said calmly.
"Then I wish Guard Luo immediate success?"
Luo Yuan asked the heavens in silence.
How come the young lady is so smart and clever, but the maids around her are all so...stupid?
For a moment, I really thought of a good word to describe it.
In the corridor, the two were talking in low voices.
Inside the room, Du Jingyi had already helped Shang Ji change his clothes.
Shang Ji was used to being in the army, so he didn't pay attention to these things.
But he was very meticulous and could tell at a glance that the main house was exquisite and clean everywhere.
The same was true of his wife's clothes, and Shang Ji had never seen her wear the same clothes repeatedly.
Therefore, he felt somewhat out of place.
So, in order to avoid standing out too much, he thought about it and said.
"Is there any clean clothes here that are suitable for me? I'll go to the annex to wash up before coming to eat."
Du Jingyi was a little surprised when he heard him say this.
But he answered quickly.
"Yes, the general's uniforms that were previously placed in the study are all in the cabinet. I will bring them to you."
"good."
Shang Ji felt that he was covered in dust and it was difficult for him to sit down.
Du Jingyi opened the closet door to take out clothes, and suddenly as if he thought of something, he turned around and glanced at Shang Ji, and asked curiously.
"Then General, do you want to change your shoes and socks?"
Hearing this, Shang Ji's face turned a little green.
Is this young lady disgusted by her smelly feet? That's why she has such a question? If Luo Yuan dared to ask this, he would have been thrown out long ago.
But looking at his wife's innocent expression and eyes, Shang Ji couldn't get angry at all and could only pretend to be calm.
"good."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Seeing this, Du Jingyi brought him some clean shoes and socks.
Then he said with a smile.
"These are also the general's previous clothes and shoes. Lu Ju will deliver a new batch of clothes and shoes in a few days. Let the general try them on then. If there is any discomfort, we can make some changes."
"good."
Shang Ji never thought he was a talkative person, but why did he seem to speak so much in front of his wife?
So just as he was about to take the clothes and go to the ear room to wash and change, he heard Du Jingyi shouting something outside.
"Lizhu."
"Hey, Madam."
"Help the general to wash up."
"yes."
Then, he handed clean clothes, shoes and socks to Lizhu.
Lizhu was also not very tactful and only wanted to complete the tasks assigned by the young lady.
He totally failed to notice his general's face which was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
However, after this incident, Shang Ji understood something.
That means my wife must have some kind of mysophobia, otherwise why would she not only change her clothes, but also change her shoes and socks into clean ones.
But no matter what he thought, he still followed Li Zhu and entered the ear room.
After washing his hands, he asked Lizhu to leave and said that he would change his hands himself.
Lizhu frowned, but did not dare to question the general's words. She turned around and prepared to go out.
As a result, before leaving, he saw a piece of fragrant soap and suddenly remembered something, so he found a new piece and handed it to Shang Ji, and then said in a kind attitude.
"General, this is the young lady's favorite scented soap. You can try it. It smells delicious."
Shang Ji's face fell and he scolded.
"Nonsense."
He is a great general, why does he need to use perfumed soap?
If this gets out, I'm afraid everyone will laugh at me, so I'll just stand up and refuse to take it.
Lizhu had no choice but to put the scented soap back to its place and then quickly left the ear room.
Time flies so fast, and it’s time to put it on the shelves.
Hehe, my hand speed is now relatively fast enough to support me and I will add more chapters for you~~
So, today I will post 5 chapters, giving you a small update! Next, I will give you continuous updates based on the additional update conditions~ The daily updates are still the same as before, 3 chapters per day, posted in the early morning, please pay attention to receive them.
(But it seems that many sisters know, haha, so I won’t say more) The following are the conditions for adding more chapters. Compared with the book "The Imperial Concubine", I have lowered the conditions a lot, because after all, it is a new book that has just been released. At the same time, I also want to add more chapters for everyone. I hope you will not be stingy with your votes and give them to me like crazy! Goal:
If the number of recommendation votes reaches 366 on the day, an additional chapter will be added.
If the monthly votes reach 36 on the same day, an additional chapter will be added.
If the number of collections reaches 600 on the day, an additional chapter will be added.
If the daily reward reaches 6666, an additional chapter will be added.
An additional chapter will be added during statutory holidays.
The above additional chapters can be added cumulatively. For example, if 1 and 2 are met at the same time, two additional chapters will be added, but the number of additional chapters added on the same day shall not exceed 3 chapters.
The additional chapters will be added the next day. After seeing the statistics, if they meet the target, they will be arranged for you! For this time's plan for this book, I personally want to break through and see if I can write about 3 million words.
Hahaha, of course it depends on my subsequent efforts, but over a million will be no problem.
I hope you enjoy reading this and remember to vote for me~ (End of this chapter)
