"Your arrangements are the best, but don't worry too much and take care of your health."

"Don't worry, General. I will."

Du Jingyi had already eaten, so she wasn't hungry at the moment, but she still accompanied Shang Ji to eat a few bites.

However, compared to Shang Ji's hearty eating, she seemed to eat much less.

After Shang Ji had finished his meal, Du Jingyi continued.

"Today, along with Grandmother Guo, there are also the Third Madam and Madam Feng Shao. Madam Feng Shao is quite a wonderful person. From what I can see, her personality is somewhat similar to that of my aunt. They are both very outgoing and friendly."

"The second wife of the Guo family is well-known in Sui'an City for her ability to make friends. She looks lively, but her personality is not as sincere as my aunt's, so it's better to keep an eye on her."

For Shang Ji, he is suspicious of everyone except those who have passed his test.

Therefore, Madam Feng Shao did not get any obvious good cards from him.

After hearing this, Du Jingyi nodded. This was what she meant. She could make friends with this Madam Feng Shao, but if she wanted to be a close friend, she still had to be more careful.

After thinking about it, I decided to tell him about Du Jingxian.

Shang Ji listened silently and did not give an answer immediately, but that did not mean he was not thinking about it.

Du Jingyi also knew this, so he didn't interrupt.

After a while, he spoke.

"The day after tomorrow, I'll go back to the Du family with you. If this matter gets out, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult for you and your father-in-law. With me here, it will be a bit better."

More than just better, with Shang Ji's support, even if someone like the Minister of Jin wants to secretly make trouble, he will have to think carefully before doing so.

Du Jingyi was not polite and said with a smile.

"Then I would like to thank the general for his protection on behalf of my parents~"

"You, you clever little devil."

After saying this, the couple smiled at each other, then took a rest, turned off the lights and went to bed.

Have a good dream all night long.

In the next few days, the general's mansion was actively preparing for Xue Niang's coming-of-age ceremony at the end of February. In particular, the eldest sister-in-law Liu regarded this matter as the most important thing at the moment and therefore took it very seriously.

With her looking after them, Shang Ji and Du Jingyi, who were supposed to be in charge of the overall situation in the mansion, both appeared at the Du family today.

Compared with the time Du Jingyi came back home, there were even more carriages and horses parked at the door.

All the servants were on high alert, fearing that something might go wrong today, so they all stood outside the yard in an orderly manner, waiting to be called.

At this moment, the main hall of the Du family was also full of people.

At the head of the group were naturally Mr. Du and Mrs. Du. They both looked very unhappy today, with a hint of disdain in their seriousness, and from time to time they glared at those indignant relatives.

The Second Master Du and the Fourth Master Du, who used to make the loudest noises, were now very timid. They knew very well that Du Jingxian had caused a terrible disaster this time.

If Du Jingyi didn't have his current status, and if the outsiders had been a little more considerate of him, their doorman would probably have been overturned.

Therefore, both the father and the son are no different from a stray dog ​​with its tail between its legs.

Like them, the youngest son of Shangshu Jin also lowered his head and dared not speak casually. It was he who took Du Jingxian to swindle the money everywhere without knowing the reason.

So now the Minister of Jin came to the door angrily to ask for an explanation, and he wished that the missing Du Jingxian could be dragged out and his corpse whipped to relieve his hatred.

Unfortunately, Shang Ji and Du Jingyi arrived not long after he arrived.

Seeing Shang Ji, no matter how angry he was, he had to endure it at this moment.

Therefore, the main hall was very lively with people standing and sitting.

Mr. Du sat at the top, looking at the clan members who were upset and talking about things. He knew clearly in his heart that these were their relatives.

We must share the good times together, and we must help each other in times of trouble.

It's so ridiculous.

Then he took a look at his second uncle-in-law Shang Ji, and had a plan in mind. Then he cleared his throat and said something.

"I'm sure everyone knows why Minister Jin came here today, so tell us how to solve this problem."

He is not a living Buddha who is eager to clean up the mess for his nephew.

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

Three hundred thousand taels is nothing for the Du family.

But getting the Du couple to willingly pay the money to plug the hole is another matter.

So, before the Second Master Du and the Fourth Master Du could speak, Mrs. Du snorted coldly and said to Minister Jin.

"Your Excellency the Minister may not know that several months ago, Du Jingxian abused the name of our Du family to sell fake medicine outside. After being discovered by his peers, he tried to frame us. Not only did he not repent afterwards, he also shouted that it was my husband and I who gave him the idea, and his purpose was to make huge profits."

"Fortunately, the family's accounts were clear, and the people in the Chamber of Commerce were all sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. They produced evidence, and when the matter was almost reported to the police, he finally admitted it. So my husband and I wrote to the merchants and the government office, stating that we were separated and that although we were still surnamed Du, we were strangers."

After Mrs. Du said this in a resounding voice, Minister Jin looked sideways at his youngest son and wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

He was really smart all his life, but in the end he was dragged down by his son.

It was such an idiot who did it, so I couldn't help it anymore and slapped him.

"I've said before that you have high aspirations but a fragile life. Even if you want to do business, you should have looked into that person's past. You deserve to get into trouble for choosing someone who is hated by the whole family!"

Minister Jin's curses were so harsh that the young man from the Jin family could not help but cry out.

"Father, you are wise. When Du Jingxian came to me, he made it clear that people from the Duke's Mansion were involved. I thought that since the Duke's Mansion was guaranteeing it, I naturally didn't know much about it. Who would have known..."

“Who knows what?”

"Who knew that the man from the Duke's Mansion he was talking about would be Sanlang from Guihua Lane? If my son knew, how could he be so stupid as to be a guarantor for him? Now his friend is gone, his reputation is ruined, and my son has no idea how to live his life in the future!"

The young man from the Jin family cried and shouted, and there was some genuine regret in his heart.

Although Du Jingxian deserved to die, he really made the mistake of trusting others too easily.

If he had investigated the mess caused by Du Jingxian and the Du family from the beginning as his father said, he would not have boarded this pirate ship.

Now I really want to die, and I don’t know how I can survive in the circle of young masters in Sui'an City in the future.
