"Then we'll join in the order, but I wonder if the masters can spare some?"

"I think it's no problem. I'll go talk to the host later."

"In that case, I would like to thank you in advance, Auntie."

"We're a family, why are you being polite?"

The atmosphere was particularly harmonious as they talked. After sitting in Baoyin Temple for a while, everyone returned to Sui'an City.

After going out for the day, I wasn't that tired.

However, perhaps because vegetarian food is light, it is digested quickly. Du Jingyi felt hungry before dinner time.

Looking at Cherry, he said helplessly.

"My stomach is too empty. I'm hungry again after just a short while. It looks like I'm going to gain weight after this fall and winter."

"Young Madam looked better when you were fatter, don't you remember? When you were pregnant with Tai Ge'er, the general also said that you looked best then."

Yingtao said comfortingly, and Du Jingyi sighed and laughed.

"Oh, by the way, ask someone to go to Osmanthus Alley and send a message to Shang Sanlang's wife, saying that I invite her to come to my house."

"Why did the young lady suddenly think of inviting her here? Is it because we met in the temple today?"

"It's not entirely due to this reason. Didn't the Fifth Branch move in next door to them? Without Shang Qi Niang, I'd like to hear how the Fifth Branch deceived outsiders."

Seeing this, Yingtao remembered that Shang Qinnan had changed her name and became a concubine. She looked down on her and nodded.

"I understand. I will arrange it right away."

Sanlang's wife was a very straightforward person when she heard the news. The next day she changed into decent clothes and brought her gifts to the door.

The people in the general's mansion knew that it was their young mistress who invited her, so when they saw her coming, they led her into the mansion and went straight to Xitang Courtyard.

This time, it was the first time for Sanlang's wife to enter the main courtyard of the back house.

Although I had been here once or twice before, I was always in the front hall and the flower hall and waterside pavilion, and never had the chance to enter the backyard.

Therefore, as I followed the maid along the way, the more I looked, the more frightened I became.

The East Garden in the past was enough to make them envious, but now after seeing the General's Mansion, they realized that the gap between people can be as huge as the sky.

Although Sanlang's wife was envious, she knew that such wealth was beyond her reach, so she tried to adjust her mood along the way. When she arrived at the door of the main house of Xitang Courtyard, she regained her composure.

"Young Madam, the head madam is here."

"Please come in, sister-in-law."

"yes."

After entering the main house of Xitang Courtyard, Sanlang's wife's mood, which had just calmed down, became unstable again.

She had been to Du Jingyi's room before. Although she had not been there for a long time, she could see that the furnishings and expenses were of extremely high quality. Now they seemed extremely expensive.

One has to sigh that Du Jingyi has everything she wants, with both the enormous power of her husband's family and a huge amount of money from her own family. She lives a very comfortable life.

"My young mistress was worried about me, so she sent someone to send me a message right after she returned, so I came to visit you specially."

"Third sister-in-law, you are too polite. Please sit down and have a drink. This is the honeysuckle tea prepared by Danruo. Drinking it can relieve the dryness of autumn."

Seeing Du Jingyi being polite, Sanlang's wife naturally became even more polite.

After taking a sip, he said with a smile.

“It’s really unusual.”

Then he brought up the things he had brought with him and explained.

"It's not a valuable thing. I think it's suitable for Brother Tai's age, so I've kept an eye on it. I'll wait for the court doctor to take a look. If it's suitable, I'll give it to Brother Tai."

Although the things she sent were for Tai Ge'er, she didn't dare to be careless. If anything went wrong with the use of them, she was afraid that the good days of their third room would be over. Therefore, she asked the court doctor to check it for peace of mind.

Du Jingyi also understood her cautiousness, and then let Yingtao accept it.

The two of them had been sisters-in-law for quite some time, but the number of times they had sat down and talked in detail could be counted on one's fingers. Fortunately, Sanlang's wife and Du Jingyi were both talkative, so there was no awkwardness.

"Since we separated from the Duke's Mansion, we haven't had much contact with many of the people and things from the past. When I was preparing the sacrificial offerings a few days ago, I was reminded of my fifth great-uncle who passed away at the beginning of the year. It was really sad."

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

They both knew exactly how the Fifth Old Master died.

Du Jingyi suddenly brought it up at this time, which made Sanlang's wife a little confused, but she still had to follow Du Jingyi's words, so she said.

"My fifth uncle's funeral was very respectable. I heard that it was the general who asked for money, and then Madam Wei and her family sent it. So now it seems that the fifth house is living a happy life. When they first moved to Osmanthus Lane, they bought a lot of things."

Du Jingyi said "Oh" and asked.

"Look at my memory. I almost forgot. Wasn't Fifth Sister-in-law pregnant before she went to the farm to recuperate? By calculation, the child should be seven or eight months old now."

"What the young lady said was right. Fifth brother's wife is very lucky to have a son, so everyone in the fifth room treasures the child now. It's a pity that the child was probably frightened during pregnancy, so the child has not been in good health. Although we live together, we don't have much contact. I only saw him when he was 100 days old a few days ago, so I don't know what he is like now."

For every question Du Jingyi asked, Sanlang's wife explained with as many words as possible, fearing that she had missed something, and she would add to it at any time.

Therefore, Du Jingyi knew a lot of things that he should and shouldn't know.

"God has mercy on me. Since I became a mother, I can't bear to see my child suffer. I'd like to ask Third Sister-in-law to bring some things back to Fifth Sister-in-law for me. If they can be used by the child, it will be a good thing."

"Young Madam is very kindhearted. I'm sure my fifth brother's wife will be grateful to her."

After chatting for a while, Du Jingyi asked about the truth.

"Speaking of which, Qi Niang should also look for a marriage partner. She made a fuss for so long when she was in the Duke's Mansion. I don't know how she is doing now. After the mourning period for Fifth Uncle Grandfather is over, she should get married, whether it's said or not."

"Speaking of this, I'm still sad."

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know what bad luck the fifth branch has had. I heard that my second aunt and seventh sister contracted a serious disease when they were at the farm, so they didn't move to Guihua Lane with them. I heard in the past two months that they are not doing well..."

Escape is a commonly used method.

But Qi Niang died so that she could change her name and go to the Min Palace to be a concubine. So Second Auntie also wanted to die? What did this mean? Du Jingyi didn't understand. (End of this chapter)
