Master Fu’s Prideful Wife

To the south of the imperial capital, the imperial city villa area, the Li family.

In the exquisite small garden, servants and gardeners are cultivating new varieties of roses. In the Li family's garden, different flowers and trees are carefully cultivated according to the different types of flowers that bloom in each season. There are still bright colors throughout the year.

Unlike Ningzhou, where the four seasons are like spring, the climate is warm and comfortable, but it is a place with four distinct seasons.

Spring, summer, autumn and winter each have their own temperatures and seasons. Now that it is late autumn, it should be extraordinarily cooler.

The servants trimmed and cleaned the hibiscus flowers that were picked and went to the living room of the villa.

Melodious music came from the living room. An old-fashioned gramophone was working hard at the moment. Li Langhua, wearing a purple cotton nightgown, was sitting on the single sofa.

She drank coffee elegantly, and spread out two fashion magazines on her knees, which were the latest clothing of major brands this year. She lowered her head and drew circles on them from time to time.

A diamond hairpin was pinned to her carefully curly hair, her left hand was placed on the table next to her, and two manicurists were kneeling on the ground to make her nails. The muscles of the woman's drooping arms were firm, and there was no obvious slack.

All this is due to Li Langhua's love and care over the years, so that he will not show his old age at this age.

Every week at this time of the week, Li Langhua will do flower arrangements for a while. The flowers he uses are not only picked from his own yard, but also fresh bouquets that were airlifted from outside.

After all, this place in the imperial capital is quite cold, and it is not easy for many flowers to bloom here. Therefore, all kinds of plants growing in Li's garden are carefully cared for by gardeners before they can bloom.

Li Langhua was listening to music and doing manicures in a leisurely manner, but from time to time there was a knock on the door from upstairs. Maybe it was because of the distance or the thickness of the door, and the movement downstairs was transmitted. Not too big.

But the sound of dong dong is also very rhythmic, making people unable to ignore it.

"Ma'am, it's ready." The manicurist wearing a mask got up and said respectfully.

The old lady of the Li family is well-maintained, and a person who is almost 70 years old looks like a person in her 40s, which is well-known in the entire imperial capital circle.

So manicurists and beauticians will do whatever they want, and they won't be too old when they call her.

Li Langhua glanced at the fingernails inlaid with gold foil and broken diamonds.

"Go down."

The servant standing next to him stepped forward and took two manicurists out.

He made lemonade for Li Langhua from the kitchen and brought it over. Rachel raised her head and glanced upstairs with a helpless smile on her face.

"Otherwise, let the young lady out. She has been locked for three days. I guess she can't hold it anymore."

The longest time Li Li has been in confinement is three days. The first two days, this person must have been obedient, and what should he do in the room, but on the third day, he must have almost collapsed.

With such an impatient personality, he still wants to be a cartoonist, so it's no wonder why he is always on the street, because he didn't take the time to think about the plot and characters.

Li Langhua got up and sat down in front of the round table, holding the golden handmade scissors and began to trim the flowers.

"Let her out later at lunch."

Rachel understood that the old lady was frightened by Li Li going downstairs from the third floor with a bed sheet last time. No matter how disobedient this granddaughter was, the old lady was pampering her.

It's not that the fourth day has been closed before, but on the fourth day, Li Li started crying, making trouble, and hanging himself. The old lady was very distressed, and she gave up because she was afraid that something would happen to her.

But this time was different. She was joking with her life. Of course, the old lady was angry. Therefore, all the windows in Li Li's room had been installed with thick anti-theft windows, so she couldn't get in or out.

When Li Yuanzhi came back, the vase by the old lady's hand was half decorated.

"Mom." He called forward.

Li Langhua carefully fiddled with the edge of the vase, "How's the investigation?"

Li Yuanzhi took out the document bag and put it over, "The friend Lili talks about is from Ningzhou, the Mu family of Ningzhou, the youngest daughter of the Mu family who has been lost for fifteen years. It was not long after they were found."

"The Mu family?" Li Langhua put down his scissors and glanced at the opened document, and quickly scanned the contents of the document.

"Yes, the Mu family claimed that their youngest daughter had been lost for fifteen years, and was only found two months ago. This Mu Wenli was very powerful. After returning to the Mu family, the Mu family went bankrupt and Mu Kun was killed. Father Mu committed suicide, and Mrs. Mu's eldest lady went to jail."

Li Yuanzhi was expressionless when he read these words, but his heart was still slightly shaken.

According to the data, this Mu Wenli is the same age as Li Li, both are twenty-year-old children, how do you feel that this child can't be provoked.

"There are no photos on this?" Li Langhua turned a few pages and didn't see a single picture.

"Half of the entire Ningzhou photo cannot be searched, and all the pictures taken by reporters on the Internet cannot be searched."

"Have you found out why the Mu family was destroyed?" Li Langhua handed the document back to him.

Li Yuanzhi looked at the old lady's relaxed posture and shook his head as usual, "The rest of the people sent out are still investigating carefully, and I will tell you when I have the results."

"So this kid is no ordinary kid." The scissors in Li Langhua's hands snapped off the flower branch in the middle.

"After all, she is not a simple character. I suspect that the Mu family's affairs have something to do with her."

The old lady didn't speak anymore. I'm afraid many people would suspect Mu Wenli about such a thing.

Hearing the thumping sound from upstairs, Li Yuanzhi looked up and said, "Mom, why don't you put Lili away, she didn't eat much last night."

Li Langhua chuckled softly, "You guys are pampering her and accustomed to her. The more you get used to it, the more lawless you become."

It is not an exaggeration to say that the two little overlords of the imperial capital, Xi Moqian and Li Li, were notorious.

It is because the petted lawless genius will do this.

"Look at what you said, girls have to be pampered. Lili is still young, and she will be sensible when she grows up." Li Yuanzhi persuaded with a smile.

Rachel took this opportunity to persuade, "Don't be angry, it's Miss's birthday soon. I always have to listen to Miss's opinion on how to do this birthday dinner."

Li Li's birthday has always been the most important thing for the Li family. Every year, everything is grand and luxurious, and it all comes with her temperament.

Seeing that Li Langhua didn't speak, Li Yuanzhi made a gesture to the servant and went upstairs by himself.

The third floor was divided into four rooms, one for Li Li, one for Li Ruobing, and the other for the gym and where Li Li kept comic books. The two little girls lived on the entire third floor by themselves.

The door of the white room in the middle kept making a thumping sound, and the dull sound came one after another, making it seem a little weak.

Li Yuanzhi took out the key from his pocket and opened the door. Li Li, who was leaning against the door, jumped out at once.

"Second uncle!!!"

I knew that every time it was the second uncle who would save her.

"Little Ancestor, you have to talk to grandma properly when you go down, otherwise I can't save you." Li Yuanzhi pinched her face.

The closeness between the elders and the younger generation made people feel more comfortable, and the servants on the side laughed when they saw this. Mr. Nian always doted on the second lady the most, perhaps because Li Li's parents were not around since he was a child.

She also has extra respect and affection for this uncle who gave her father's love.

"Don't worry, second uncle." Li Li said, and took out a painting from the side, "I haven't been eating rice for the past two days."

If you want to coax grandma, how can you not come up with something real.

After Li Li finished speaking, he took the picture frame and rushed out, and Li Yuanzhi's voice came from behind.

"Be careful not to fall!"

Rachel stood beside the old lady and looked at Li Li who was rushing down the stairs, her smile deepened, "Come on."

Li Li rushed to the edge of the sofa and sat down with Li Langhua, and spread out the painting in his hand in front of the old lady as if offering a treasure.

"Grandma, look, this is your favorite oil painting master's painting. My granddaughter painted it, doesn't it look very similar?"

The proud look of the little girl made the servant standing next to him also laugh out loud. This is a painting by Li Langhua's favorite painter, but so far she has not been able to buy the real painting.

This is what Li Li drew based on pictures circulating on the Internet, and it is 99% similar to the real one.

Although the comics drawn by Li Li and Xi Moqian are not too splashy, and they cannot hide Li Li's talent in painting, she was admitted to the Imperial Capital University with a good grade of first place in painting.

If it weren't for a willful suspension, it would be a junior year now.

"Grandma, please forgive me for the sake of this painting. I have really reviewed my problem deeply. If it happens a second time, I will definitely lock myself in the room without you telling me to come out. !" Li Li's sworn appearance made him want to swear with his hands up.

Seeing her serious look, Rachel echoed, "You see that Miss said so, don't be angry, it's not good for your health."

Li Langhua took the painting from her hand and stared at her. When she saw it so coldly, Li Li was still a little nervous.

"forgive you?"

Li Li nodded frantically, um.

"Go back to school."

Li Li's face collapsed. She had been out of school for so long, and she almost forgot that she was still half a college student.

"I'm not going." She moved aside.

Li Langhua put the painting on the table and stared at her, "Give me a reason?"

Rachel knew that this matter had always been an insurmountable obstacle in the old lady's heart. At that time, the young lady was clamoring to drop out of school, and she was constantly pestering her to drop out, and the slogan was loudly shouted.

There are very good reasons for dropping out of school to pursue her dreams. People who have done great things in history have already become famous at her age.

She can no longer be trapped in school, she must pursue her dreams and pursue freedom.

In the end, Li Langhua was so angry that he became angry at Li Li for the first time in his life, and locked the person for three days and three nights without releasing him.

But the young lady was also stubborn. She didn't eat a sip of water or food, which made the old lady feel distressed for a long time. In the end, it was Li Yuanzhi who took her to apply for a leave of absence before it was over.

"I just want to do what I like." Li Li looked at the old lady.

"What do you like, drawing cartoons?" Li Langhua laughed out loud, "How much income can the dream you've been chasing so far bring you every month? How long will it take you to be able to afford you? In this dress?"

Rachel understood the old lady's impatience, Li Li is really a very talented child, and it's not very good to waste it in vain.

"How much is this?" Li Li asked ignorantly while pinching the skirt.

Li Langhua was stunned for a moment, then laughed angrily.

Of course, she doesn't know how much the skirts on her body cost. Every season, the Li family's exclusive cinema brand sends clothes and skirts here. The clothes of the changing seasons are sent in like a stream, and the selections are also the latest limited editions.

Li Li didn't need to go shopping and buy clothes by himself. Of course, he didn't know that the dress he was wearing was over seven figures.

"This semester is coming to an end. It doesn't make much sense for Miss to enroll now, or wait until next semester?" Rachel suggested.

Li Li cast a thankful look in the past.

The old lady also heard it, and looking at her granddaughter, she could only give up.

"You must enroll next semester!" The old lady said with a stern face.

Li Li nodded. Anyway, he didn't want to be stuffed in tomorrow. It was true that he stabilized his grandma first.

"Go and pour her a glass of juice." The old lady instructed the servant next to her.

When Li Ruobing entered the door, Li Li was lying on the old lady's lap to choose a hotel. The 20th birthday this time was the biggest thing for the Li family. Naturally, the entire Li family wanted to accompany her to be lively and lively.

"Don't do this, this won't work." Li Li refused.

Li Ruobing walked up to the two and put down the bag, "Grandma, are you more comfortable when you get up in the morning?"

In order to take care of Li Langhua's health, the Li family not only has a family doctor, but also has a ready-made doctor like Li Ruobing.

From time to time, he does acupuncture and moxibustion, and traditional Chinese medicine to condition his body. Over the years, Li Langhua's health has gotten better and better.

"Much better." Li Langhua took his eyes away from Li Li and looked at his eldest granddaughter, "How did you go to the game this morning?"

"The game will officially start three days later, but this time the people from each family are quite good." Li Ruobing looked at Li Li, "I also met Wen Li."

Li Li sat up at once, moving smoothly and quickly, "Really? Wen Li is also here to participate in the competition?"

It was too hasty that night, and I didn't have time to ask Wen Li what he did to the emperor.

"Yes, she is the apprentice of the Jin family and participated in the competition on behalf of the Jin family."

Li Langhua thought of what he had just seen from Li Yuanzhi's hand, that girl named Mu Wenli was quite good.

She has been in the shopping mall for so many years, and she is not stupid enough to think that it was a coincidence that the Mu family was destroyed. After the girl returned to the Mu family, the earth-shaking changes occurred in the Mu family. I am afraid she has nothing to do with her. Such a person would not be a kind person.

It is better for Li Li to have less contact with her.

"Then sister, can I go cheer for Wen Li?"

Li Ruobing shook his head, "This is not an ordinary game. Ordinary people are not allowed to enter, otherwise it will be very easy to have an accident."

There are also many disabled people after being poisoned in every traditional pharmacy competition. This is also the first time that Li Ruobing has participated in such a competition, and he can see the mystery.

She was sweating all over her hands.

"Well, I thought I could go cheer her on." Li Li was a little disappointed.

Wen Li helped her so much, it would be nice if she could repay her favor.

"Grandma, for my birthday, I'll bring her back to let you know, okay? Wen Li is a very beautiful girl. It's the first time I've seen such a beautiful girl, and she has a good personality and is willing to help others. , you will definitely like her." Li Li wrapped around Li Langhua's arm and said.

The old lady was irritated by her, "This is your birthday, it's up to you to decide who you want to invite."

However, in previous years, Li Li invited the younger generation to be lively and lively, but this year, the old lady wanted to do something different and invited various families in the imperial capital to come. After all, it was Li Li's 20th birthday.

Twenty years old is a very important stage. After all, this little princess has to meet people in the upper class of the imperial capital, and it is not good to hide it.

"Grandma, have you booked a place for Li Li's birthday dinner this time?" Li Ruobing glanced.

Li Li shook her head. All the plans she thought were rejected by her grandmother. It was obvious that the previous birthday parties were all based on her ideas. As long as she was happy, her grandmother would not say anything.

As a result, what she said today about grandma's veto made her in a bad mood.

Li Ruobing took the hotel picture book from the old lady's hand, and saw that the red pen circled the hotel that the Li family often used when they held the annual dinner party.

"Grandma, are you trying to entertain each family?"

Li Langhua nodded. Compared with Li Li, Li Ruobing wanted to live a more sensible life.

"Sister, tell me, are these places that grandma picked are not good?" Li Li leaned over and looked at Li Ruobing.

Li Langhua also cast a shallow glance, Li Ruobing closed the book, "Grandma, these are not very good, either too solemn or too relaxed, we also have two conjoined villas in the east of the city, they are by the sea, occupying The land area is not smaller than some hotels, after all, it is our own place, and it is suitable for use."

Her words awakened Li Ruobing. She had to introduce Li Li to everyone on a formal occasion, but Li Li was still too young, and it was not good for her to be too formal.

It's not bad to choose such a place, and it doesn't seem shabby or unimportant.

"Li Li, what do you think?" Li Langhua asked Li Li for his opinion.

Li Li thought for a while, "Well, I promise, it's good to be at the beach!"

Pool party or something is the best.

"If Lili agrees, I will instruct someone to deal with it." Li Ruobing put the book over.

Li Langhua shook his head, "Let Rachel do it this time, so you don't have to be distracted by the competition."

Rachel on the side nodded, "Leave this to me, don't worry."

Li Li made a request from the side, "Aunt Rachel, I want a light blue princess style first. Since we are all at the seaside, how about the color of the sea!"

Rachel shook her head, "Miss, we can't rely on you this time."

The people invited this time are all the elders of the patriarchs. If it is not serious enough to let people think about it, this is not an ordinary dinner party.

After the idea was rejected, Li Li was very frustrated and stood up with his head down.

"I'm going out, you can do it yourself."

She still has to go to Wen Li. Grandma must be angry for not letting her give her ideas for her birthday party this time.

"Come back." Li Langhua called out.

Li Li reluctantly walked back and looked at the old lady.

"Don't make trouble in these two days. From tomorrow, the etiquette teacher will come back to help you correct etiquette. Be good."

"Ah?" Li Li suddenly fell on the sofa, "I still have class?"

Li Li didn't like these courses since he was a child, but fortunately, he was a well-behaved child, and he knew everything about table manners.

But this dinner is her birthday, shouldn't she be happy on her birthday?

Why does she have to suffer like this!

"Be obedient, this time is different." Li Langhua stroked his granddaughter's hair.

Seeing her grandmother's appearance, Wen Li, who had just been released from the room, could only nod her head. After all, it was her fault first, and it was nothing to be obedient these two days.

"Grandma, I'll go upstairs first, and I'll do acupuncture for you later." Li Ruobing got up with her bag.

Li Li was still sad that she was going to repeat the same mistakes. Just like when she was a child, someone held a stick to correct her standing and sitting posture.

Only Li Langhua and Rachel were left in the living room. Rachel took the brewed black tea and put it in front of the old lady.

The delicate gold-painted utensils looked very luxurious, and the air was filled with a faint scent of tea. Li Langhua poured himself a cup of black tea.

"Miss has grown up, have you already thought about what kind of husband you want to find her?"

Li Langhua was afraid that he had already had a candidate. Li Li's husband must be the best man who could support the entire Li family in the future.

"Just tell me, and let me hear if that man is worthy of our young lady." Rachel said immediately.

Li Langhua took a sip of the red tea and said lightly, "The second son of the Yun family, Yun Xiao."

The Yun family, one of the four major families, and the younger brother of the current head of the family, Yun Sheng, the boy who always followed Li Li appeared in Rachel's mind.

Rachel also nodded with satisfaction, "He grew up with the young lady, and he is also an excellent child. He graduated from college at the age of nineteen. I heard that he is now holding an important position in the Yun family, which is very good."

More importantly, Yun Xiao grew up with Li Li and was a well-informed child. Rachel had seen it before, Yun Xiao was different to Li Li, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he liked Li Li.

It's much easier to handle a relationship with a concubine.

Yun Xiao was born in the Yun family, with a prominent net worth and outstanding ability. If he became Li Li's husband, Li Li would not have to worry about it in the future.

"Have you talked to the head of the Yun family?" Rachel asked.

Li Langhua shook his head, "Not yet. Taking advantage of this Lili's birthday, I'll take a look."

Rachel knew that the old lady naturally had to plan in every possible way. Now her health is getting worse and worse. Although she is well maintained, she is still an old man in her 70s, and she will feel powerless in many things.

Li Li is the old lady's biggest concern. If she leaves, find a reliable person to take care of her granddaughter and ensure that she will be carefree for the rest of her life.

"It's time for us to go to the company." Rachel reminded.

Li Langhua got up from the sofa and went upstairs to change clothes and prepare to go to the company.

In the study, Li Yuanzhi looked at all the information and news briefings spread out on the table, and tapped his fingers on the table very rhythmically.

The secretary next to him, Wang Hao, looked at his cold face, "You might as well tell the old lady directly."

When they investigated that Mu Wenli, they also collected a lot of information about Ningzhou. In Li's house over the years, some information was not allowed to enter.

That's why it's a little bit late for them to know.

Li Yuanzhi turned over the documents on the desktop and put them over, "These are not important."

What he is worried about now is the girl named Mu Wenli. All the news about her in Ningzhou has been wiped out, only a few bits and pieces are left, and there are not a single exposed photo.

After the Mu family's family was destroyed, this child came to the imperial capital. What was the purpose?

The person who arranged to watch in the past has not yet given a message.

Wang Hao answered the phone, the person over there said very brief words, and the expression on his face quickly became surprised.

Moving the phone away, he looked at Li Yuanzhi, "The person we sent was discovered, and the other party gave a warning."

The bodyguard of the Li family's private investigation is not low, so it can be discovered.

"It seems that this Mu Wenli is not easy..." Li Yuanzhi put away the documents.

All information has been erased, and it is not ordinary people who can do this.

In this case, she was just an innocuous girl, so he didn't need to care so much, but during the investigation, he discovered some things that made him very concerned.

After all, this person is not an ordinary person. If he enters the Li family, he is afraid that it will cause a lot of commotion.
