We got to eat delicious food because Brother Tai was here.

I was able to drink good wine because Brother Tai was here.

The atmosphere today is exceptionally good, and that's also because Brother Tai is here.

In the end, Du Jingyi and Gu Shaoyu couldn't stand the praise from the elders present, so they said something in a cold voice.

"I originally wanted to send him to the military camp to gain experience when he was three or four years old, but now seeing how doted on he is by his aunt and aunties, I decided to send him to the military camp as soon as he can walk and run, so that he can gain experience earlier and know the difference between honey and hardship earlier."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Du Jingyi thought that the first person to attack would be Madam Gu, but he didn't expect it to be the usually gentle Second Aunt. She spoke with tears in her eyes.

"The child is still so young, why should he suffer? He hasn't had enough of the sweetness yet! Isn't that right, mother-in-law?"

After she said this, several aunts either scolded, got angry, or sneered, and started to "teach" Gu Shaoyu a lesson, as if to say, "If you dare to send it, we will throw you out."

Unfortunately, Gu Shaoyu had seen all kinds of scenes, so he continued to eat without changing his expression or heartbeat, and endured the complaints of his elders.

Du Jingyi is a little more miserable. He hasn't had that many familiar relatives at home since he was a child. When so many aunts and cousins ​​come to "act" at once, it's really like watching a play script.

"Shao Yu's wife, are you willing to give it up?"

Seeing that Gu Shaoyu couldn't make the attack after a long time, they changed their stance and looked at Du Jingyi, but before she could say anything, Gu Shaoyu came to the rescue.

"By then, she might be in confinement and have to take care of the newborn baby. How can she have time to take care of Taigeer?"

In one sentence, it became difficult for everyone to start with Du Jingyi.

In the end, it was Gu Xiaolang who tried to mediate.

"Old is not as good as new. Maybe the baby in my cousin's belly is coming out. My aunt and the other sisters will be busy."

Hearing this, everyone sighed at once, as if there was nothing wrong with it. So, Tai Ge'er, who was so loved just now, "fell out of favor" in an instant.

Madam Gu and the fourth aunt had seen Tai Ge'er from childhood to now, so they might be fine. But the other aunts, the first aunt, the second aunt, and the third aunt, just stared at Du Jingyi's belly which had not yet bulged.

The child hasn't even been born yet, but it seems like someone is already vying to pamper him. This situation makes Du Jingyi feel a little amused and helpless.

Gu Xiaochun and Gu Xiaoyun had not been in this house for long, so it was not easy for them to participate in the conversation. They could only sit there quietly, smile, and agree with the conversation from time to time.

The second aunt was considerate and picked up some food for both of them and whispered something.

"Today is New Year's Eve. Since mother-in-law has said that there is no hierarchy at the dinner table, you should also be more open. Women have to follow the rules every day in the boudoir, so today you can be unrestrained for once. Drink whatever you want and eat whatever you want, understand?"

"Thanks to my mother (Second Aunt) for reminding us, we now know."

Then, the two of them took the opportunity to toast and stood up, and toasted Madam Gu and everyone else.

Since they came to the Gu family, they have not suffered any injustice. This is much better than living in fear in the palace.

In the past, they thought that being General Gu’s concubine was a blessing from their previous lives, but now they feel that being born a daughter of the Gu family is also a blessing.

The whole family is having fun.

This is the atmosphere of the Gu family in Jinling City, and the general's mansion thousands of miles away is also relatively neat and tidy today.

The Du couple were invited by their eldest sister-in-law, Liu, so they came over to celebrate New Year's Eve together. There were only four people at the table, which seemed a bit lonely.

So after seeking the opinions of the Du couple, the eldest sister-in-law Liu asked the housekeeper He who had served them for most of their lives, Nanny Dou, Mama Ou (someone close to the eldest sister-in-law Liu), Mama Ge (someone close to Xue Niang), and Mama Cai (someone close to Du Jingyi) to sit together.

At first, they all followed the rules and were unwilling to do so. It was only after their eldest sister-in-law Liu said this that they were deeply moved and sat down, and also celebrated the reunion year with their family.

"You all have been living with our family in the backyard since you were young. Although you are master and servant, your mother-in-law, the master, the general, and I have long regarded you as family. So this year we will spend our days together and make our lives brighter and more comfortable. Is that okay?"

Her words moved both Mr. and Mrs. Du.

The Du family is also very humane. Family rules are family rules, but they are always taken seriously by the old women, maids, servants, housekeepers, or business owners and clerks who serve them.

I have never been harsh, nor have I ever beaten or scolded anyone for no reason.

Therefore, even the grandmother said that those who could marry into the Du family were blessed.

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

Therefore, they would not think there was anything wrong with eating at the same table with slaves. What's more, these were all from the general's mansion, or the East Garden, which employed elderly people, which made them more respectable than ordinary families outside.

Although sister-in-law Liu sat in the main seat, the elders present today were the Du couple, so the first glass of wine was naturally offered to them.

"Uncle and aunt, thank you for your hard work. You have spent most of this year worrying about the people in our house. Jingyi and I are sisters-in-law, and our family members are not in Sui'an City. If you don't mind, you can treat me as a half-daughter in the future. I will honor you two together with them in the future."

After hearing what their sister-in-law Liu said, the Du couple were also very emotional. Mr. Du, who was used to joking, replied.

"Don't talk about half and half, filial piety or not. If a good child like you can be a goddaughter to my wife and me, I will be so happy."

After hearing this, sister-in-law Liu was also very happy.

She longed for the harmonious atmosphere of the Du family, especially these days when she often brought Xue Niang to their house for reunions. She could always feel the care and love of the two of them, which made the sister-in-law, who was always used to being the "elder", quite happy.

So he hurriedly said.

"In that case, I won't be polite. Godfather and godmother, I am here to show my respect."

After saying this, he stood up and bowed, then raised his glass and drank three cups.

She is generous and the Du couple are not reserved.

He raised his glass to his eldest sister-in-law Liu and drank it all in one gulp. Everyone was happy to see this scene, and the atmosphere naturally became much more lively.

Especially Mother Ou, who served sister-in-law Liu, knew very well the hardships and tears that sister-in-law had endured over the years.
