Chapter 2214: Spring is not too late
As Zhao Qianyue bent down to hand over the teacup, Shi Li consciously took several steps back.
Otherwise, if Zhao Qianyue bumped into him, she would say you are "untactful".
"Grandma, take a good rest. I won't disturb you." Shi Li looked at Zhao Qianyue who was serving him tea earnestly. He was really grateful to her for giving him a good excuse to leave.
Old Madam Fang raised her hand, as if she wanted to hold her back, but Shi Li pretended not to understand, bowed and walked out quickly.
When I walked outside, I saw Mrs. Fang telling her two maids where to live.
The place arranged for her this time was not the east wing where she used to live, but a large garden newly built by the Fang family last year.
Shi Li felt that it was inappropriate and was about to refuse, but Mrs. Fang took the lead.
"Qianyue and your cousin both live in the garden, so it's quite lively there." Mrs. Fang thought what she said was perfect.
But Shi Li knew that she had missed the most crucial person.
Not only did all the unmarried girls in the Fang family live in the new garden, but Fang Yu also lived there with a group of maids who served him.
This arrangement is simply bizarre.
"Thank you for your kindness, aunt, but I think it would be more convenient for me to live in the east wing to visit my grandmother, so let's not bother living somewhere else." Shi Li argued and was absolutely unwilling to have anything to do with Fang Yu.
But this time, Madam Fang's attitude was more resolute. "This is the old lady's intention. As early as when the garden was built, the old lady specifically ordered to reserve a special place for you and Yu'er to live. Yu'er didn't come, and if you didn't go to live there, the old lady would be sad again."
Shi Li: ...
Things had come to this point, Shi Li could only compromise and glanced at the two maids.
The master and servant had been together for many years and had already understood each other's thoughts. The two maids quickly responded and went to pack up their things.
Mrs. Fang took Shi Li's hand and spoke enthusiastically.
Her attitude towards Shi Li was completely different from eight years ago.
After wasting some time, the person who was supposed to appear finally arrived.
A young man in a beautiful brocade robe hurried in from outside. When he saw Shi Li standing next to Madam Fang, he was immediately struck by her beauty.
"This sister is..." Fang Yu stared at Shi Li without blinking.
Shi Li: ...
Continue to be speechless.
Mrs. Fang's face was full of joy. She pretended to pat Fang Yu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You have been thinking about your cousin all day long. How come you don't recognize her now that you finally see her?"
"Ah... Cousin Li, it's you!" Fang Yu reacted immediately and gave Shi Li a standard pervert smile.
On the other side, Zhao Qianyue seemed to have sensed something and just happened to walk out of the old lady's room. When she saw the three people present, she immediately walked over quickly.
"Cousin Yu is back. The old lady has been talking about him for a long time. Come with me to see the old lady!" Zhao Qianyue came over, pulled up Fang Yu's sleeve and walked into the house.
But Fang Yu broke free from her, turned around and continued to smile at Shi Li, "Cousin Li, hello, hello..."
"You should go see your grandmother." Shi Li was frowning. She made up a few excuses and left.
The newly built garden of the Fang family is very beautiful.
The scenery all around is unique, and there is a rockery surrounded by flowing water.
Mingchen visited rashly and Master Fang was unprepared, so he took him to the new garden for a tour. In the corridor, they happened to meet Shi Li and her maid walking towards them.
At first, Master Fang didn't realize who Shi Li was. He was stunned for a long time before he remembered it after being reminded by the servants around him. He quickly introduced her to Mingchen.
"This is……"
"You live here too?" Mingchen didn't look at Master Fang, but at Shi Li. When he saw the two maids holding things in their hands, a gloomy look flashed across his brows.
Just now, Mr. Fang told him that his son lived in this garden, and now he even arranged for Shi Li to live in it as well, this Fang family.
"My grandmother loved it and specially left a yard for me." Shi Li answered with his head down.
What else could she do? Even if they lived in the same garden, she would not let Fang Yu break into her house without following the rules.
Master Fang looked at Shi Li, then at Ming Chen, with a look of surprise and confusion on his face, "Do you know each other?"
Relying on his ancestors, he is now an idle official. He does not seek promotion and has no political achievements. He ignores everything all day long. Naturally, he does not know the relationship between Shi Mufeng and the Ming family, and he does not know that Shi Li was sent to his house twice by Ming Chen.
In front of outsiders, Mingchen only glanced at Shi Li indifferently, and then said: "My mother knows Miss Shi."
"Yes, I'll take my leave first." Shi Li naturally knew this as well, so he bowed and left in a hurry.
But she was thinking in her heart that Mingchen calling her "Miss Shi" seemed particularly harsh.
