"After all, the back house is where I will manage things in the future. If I wait for the general to come back to deal with everything, wouldn't it cause him a lot of trouble? Don't worry, Butler He, I know the severity."
When she finished saying this, Butler He and Aunt Dou were both a little surprised.
After all, this young lady did not come from a famous family, and she did not have any special abilities.
And in the past three years in the back house, I have been keeping a low profile.
Therefore, both of them thought she had a quiet and peaceful temperament and were afraid that she would be bullied.
That's why I rushed to block the left and right.
But looking at it today, it seems that they have made a mistake.
Such calmness and calmness may not be possible for a young lady.
So, Butler He said in a deep voice.
"This old slave is worrying too much, young lady, please come!"
Du Jingyi smiled, today's affairs must be done beautifully.
One is to make the people in the fifth house and even the entire Guogong Mansion open their eyes and see clearly that Dongyuan is not someone they can bully if they want to.
Secondly, it is also to establish its power when it will be moved to the General's Mansion in the future.
After all, she will be the one in charge from now on.
For such a large general's mansion, it is natural that there must be hundreds of servants.
If she can't establish this reputation now, I'm afraid she will have some trouble in the future.
Therefore, the smile becomes more gentle and touching.
The people in the fifth house don't know yet that they will soon become Du Jingyi's food.
So, I was still cursing and cursing inside.
"The young lady is here!"
Butler He raised his voice and shouted loudly to the people in the flower hall.
Everyone looked over immediately.
The fourth lady, Mrs. Ni, stood up slightly, originally planning to salute.
After all, according to their status, white people like them have to bow when they see the general's wife, or the young master and his wife.
But it happened that the father-in-law, husband, son and daughter-in-law were all present.
They are all branded on their butts and refuse to stand up, so naturally it is not easy for her to stand out.
So, he sat down again angrily.
When Du Jingyi walked in and saw that the noses of this family were not noses and their mouths were not mouths, he felt ridiculed in his heart.
I'm so used to it, I don't know how heavy my bones are.
So, he smiled deliberately and said.
"I kept my fifth uncle waiting. It's hard for you to make a trip this early in the morning, but what's the matter?"
Du Jingyi pretended not to know about the death of Qi Er, and still talked like normal relatives.
Seeing this, the fifth old man immediately became angry.
Hengmei said coldly and angrily.
"My family is unlucky. Why did I marry such a scourge like you? My husband killed someone and he didn't even know how to dissuade him. He's such a waste."
If he wanted to come forward, he would suppress Du Jingyi's momentum with a loud rebuke. It would be better to scare her, which would make things easier for him later.
Therefore, there is plenty of room for arrogance.
Du Jingyi must be embarrassed.
As a result, Du Jingyi had no reaction to his display of power, but still said with a smile on his face.
"Hey, my fifth uncle ate something he shouldn't have eaten, and he is talking nonsense here. Although I am not from a famous family, I am also the daughter of an innocent family. The matter of marrying into the Duke of Guo's palace was done by the Duke of Guo himself.
The marriage was decided only after coming to discuss with my parents, with three letters and six engagements, and we were welcomed at the front door."
"Why is it that in the eyes of my fifth uncle, he has become a scourge and a waste?"
When she said this, her face was smiling, but her eyes were cold.
When he looked at the fifth old man, he was quite serious.
The Fourth Lady Ni looked at it and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
It was Wu Lang's wife next to her who patted the back of her hand, which made her fear go away a lot.
On the other hand, Shang Yu'an and Shang Wulang looked at each other and seemed to find it a bit difficult.
Why haven't I noticed before that this Liulang's wife is a sharp-tongued woman?
Now I realize that it is a tough nut to crack.
The father and son calmed down and decided to take a look at the situation before speaking.
The fifth old man has been in the back house for a long time, and there is no room for others to point fingers at him.
Especially when he saw that Du Jingyi was a weak woman, he stepped forward and said fiercely with his eyes wide open.
"Bah, you dare to question me regardless of my identity?"
Du Jingyi may have been doing business all over the country with his parents for many years, but he has never seen anyone.
But people like the Fifth Old Master are really rare.
What is his name, the Fifth Old Master? He might as well be called the Rogue Master.
But the momentum should not be lost, so he spoke with a firm tone.
"Since I am the wife of the young prince who has entered the Duke's palace in a sedan chair and is the wife of the second-rank fat cavalry general of the current dynasty, there seems to be nothing wrong with correcting my fifth uncle who was born in Baiding."
"you!"
The fifth old man was very angry.
One of the things he is most taboo about is his own identity.
Obviously my brother is a high-ranking official, but he is an ordinary citizen who is not worth mentioning.
In recent years, relying on the power of the Duke's government, I have gained a lot of benefits from outside.
But the more this happened, the more twisted his heart became.
I always think that they are all crawling out of the belly of a mother, so there is no distinction between them.
It was just his bad luck, if he had been the one who followed the founding emperor in the uprising.
Then it will be him who enjoys all the glory today.
Why do you have to live in the shadow of your brother like this, and your children and grandchildren will also be wronged.
Du Jingyi looked at the fifth old man at this moment, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
He stared at her fiercely like his hair was exploding, eager to find an opportunity to come up and scratch her twice.
And the fifth old man did not disappoint Du Jingyi's guess.
As expected, he was as stupid as a pig, so he stood up, slapped his hands in the air fiercely, and cursed in his mouth.
"You bitch, I just want to show you how powerful I am! How dare you act wild in front of me!"
The slap was about to come down, but Butler He and Aunt Dou were so frightened that they quickly stopped them.
But Du Jingyi stood in front of him calmly, looking at him with a half-smile.
And his palm was raised high, but before it landed in front of Du Jingyi, Li Zhu kicked him straight to the ground.
Then he immediately restrained the fifth old man's throat in a grabbing position.
But the palm he had just raised was now folded behind him in a weird posture.
With a click, the bone was dislocated.
Although the fifth old man is in good health, he is still in his seventies.
After being knocked down like this, I almost lost my breath.
Li Zhu, who was kneeling on top of him, had murderous intent in his eyes at the moment, and calmly spat out every word.
"Not many people who dare to touch the young lady can walk out of this door standing!"
