Chapter 12: The Merchant Widowed After Her Husband Fakes His Death (2)
Then she reacted, "Haha, you belittle my lady. The spirit of the son-in-law in heaven saw the evil deeds of you, the evil slave, and came to deal with you!"
"Impossible! The young master clearly still..."
The maidservant stopped talking halfway through her words, and then hurriedly said, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Hurry up and wake up your young lady, don't let the old lady wait anxiously!"
Su Li sat at the dressing table, gently drawing her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil, listening to the maid's words.
It turned out that the servants of the Li Mansion had long known that Li Yi was not dead, but the master and servants of the Gu family were kept in the dark their entire lives!
"Dong'er, come here and comb my hair!"
Su Li, with her eyebrows drawn, shouted outside the door.
"Hey, here we come!"
Dong'er pushed the door open and came in. "Miss, are you awake? Are you feeling better?"
"I'm fine. Help me to give my hair a more refined look. I'm going to see the old lady!"
Su Li looked at herself in the mirror with her beautiful eyebrows and eyes and whispered.
"Okay, miss!"
Dong'er responded cheerfully, forgetting the unpleasantness just now, and helped Su Li comb her hair.
"Dong'er, after you comb your hair, go back home and let my father take care of my dowry shop and fertile fields for you."
Watching the maid skillfully styling her hair, Su Li softly instructed, "Tell my father to clear out all the relatives and servants of the Li family from the shop. Also, tell him to tell all the shops in the capital not to charge the expenses of the Li family to me in the future. Whoever owed money on credit should be asked to pay!"
"Okay, miss, I got it!"
Dong'er understood instantly and responded briskly. Her young lady finally knew not to let those people from the Li family suck her blood!
"Well, after you go back, you don't need to come to Gu's house anymore. Wait for me to come home, okay?"
Su Li used her lipstick to add a touch of fresh color to her lips.
"Miss, are you planning not to live in the Li family anymore?"
The little maid said happily, feeling sorry for her mistress, "Great! Miss, you finally figured it out! I have long advised you to leave the Li family like the two young ladies. But you just refused. Look how you have been treated humiliatingly by those servants in the Li family!"
"It's not too late now!"
Su Li curled her lips and found a few exquisite red hairpins on the dressing table and put them on. "You leave through the back door. I'll go see the old lady!"
"Ok!"
Dong'er retreated.
Su Li waved her hand, and all the jewelry on the dressing table, including the jewelry box, were put into her space.
She also collected the box of silver bills in the wardrobe compartment and all the valuable furnishings in the room.
Afterwards, she took out an exquisite key from her neck, opened the storeroom next door, and collected all the dowry, including silver, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, fabrics, etc., into the storeroom.
Only the dressing table and bed that came with the dowry were left in the room.
Then she walked with graceful steps towards the courtyard where the old lady lived.
Speaking of which, this house also belongs to the Gu family, and we must take it back later!
But don’t worry, take your time!
In the main hall, the old lady looked at Gu Suyun, who was always dressed in plain clothes, and saw that she was wearing a bright red dress. She couldn't help but frowned, "Suyun, Yi'er has not yet passed the three-year mourning period, why are you wearing such gorgeous clothes?"
"Ma'am, aren't you wearing bright colors yourself?"
Su Li looked at the dark blue robe on her and replied.
"I……"
Li Liu took a look at her dress, coughed awkwardly and said, "I was happy today, so I changed into bright clothes."
"Oh? What good news makes you so happy, ma'am?"
Su Li asked calmly.
Judging from her appearance and the tone of the maid just now, she should have met Li Yi.
From the memories of her original life, it seemed that it was at this time that the old lady told her that a long-lost branch of the family had arrived in the capital, and she had allocated a manor outside the city for them to temporarily reside in, and also planned to give them several hundred taels of silver every month to live on.
The original body didn't care at the time. After all, she had millions of taels of silver notes and half of the shops in the capital.
He didn't care about the manor outside the city and the several hundred taels of silver every month.
It was not until she was old that she found out that the so-called relatives were her husband who had faked his death, and his cousin's family!
At first, Li Yi hid in the old lady's parents' home for a year before he dared to bring his cousin and her family to seek refuge with his mother.
Afterwards, in order to conceal his whereabouts, he was arranged to live in a manor outside the city by Mrs. Li.
Now it seems that it is about this time, so what the old lady wants to tell me is about Li Yi, right?
really!
Li Liu said, "It's like this. My mother's brother, your uncle, and his family came to the capital from their hometown. I have arranged for them to live in a manor outside the city. Then I will ask the accountant to pay some money every month for their living."
"You can arrange it yourself, Madam!"
Su Li fiddled with the jade bracelet on her left hand and said softly, "By the way, I've been having nightmares these past few days. I plan to go to the Pudu Temple in Xishan to pray. Madam, would you like to come with me?"
Her manor was in the east of the city, while the Xishan Pudu Temple was in the west of the city, in opposite directions. She was sure that Li Liu would not go there.
"No, I'm old and the journey to Xishan is long. I won't go."
Li Liu quickly waved her hands. Since she was not around, she could just take a chance to see her own son more.
"In that case, old lady, I will have someone prepare the carriage first!"
Seeing the joy on Li Liu's face, Su Li left with an indifferent look.
I'll make you happy today, but after tomorrow you won't be able to laugh even if you want to!
Afterwards, she asked the servants of the Li Mansion to hire a carriage on the street, and she packed some clothes and left.
That night.
In Taohuashan Manor, the most remote place in the east of the city.
Li Yi hugged her cousin and sat in the yard looking at the moon. "Qing'er, I'm sorry for wronging you! I can't give you the title of Mrs. Li in this life."
The person in her arms hugged him tightly with a happy smile on her face, "Qing'er doesn't care about any status, Qing'er just wants to accompany Brother Yi for the rest of her life."
"Yes, Qing'er, now under my mother's care, we will be fine!"
"Brother Yi, if she knew you were still alive, what would you do? Would you go back?"
Qing'er looked at him and asked cautiously.
"No, my mother asked me to marry her because she could give the Li family a life of luxury with her money. Now that she has the title of the third wife of the Li family, she should be content!"
Li Yi squeezed Qing'er in his arms a little more, "And you, my cousin, only have me! I can't give you wealth and glory, and I can't give you the status of your legal wife, so I can only give you my whole heart."
He said affectionately to the person in his arms.
