Chapter 1657: Earning Small Money Quietly
In addition to Shi Li and Yu Mo, there was also a dowry maid in the carriage.
Everyone was so familiar with each other that the maid calmly poured a cup of tea for Mo, took the dried apricots from his hand, and asked curiously, "Why did you come here to deliver it?"
"I just happened to go to the shop to visit the owner, and I brought some dried apricots here." Yu Mo explained naturally, and then looked at Shi Li with concern, "Boss, this is..."
Shi Li didn't doubt him at all. "I'm divorced and will move to another house. It's a good opportunity for you to come. You can get familiar with the house and won't get lost."
Hearing her calm tone and knowing that she was indeed not sad, Yu Mo felt a little relieved and showed slight surprise on his face, but did not ask any more questions.
Shi Li left the Liu family with a lot of stuff, so even if she kept a low profile, the news couldn't be concealed. Within half a day, the news of her divorce from Liu Qihan spread all over Yangzhou.
Some people say that Liu Qihan was stupid and abandoned such a good wife for a mistress.
Some people also said that Shi Li's future would be difficult and that there would be no good options for a divorced woman.
Shi Li was not afraid of what others said and lived peacefully in his own house.
The only thing she was a little worried about was the Shi family in Suzhou. If the Shi family's brother and sister-in-law knew about her situation, there might be some trouble.
"What! She was divorced?" Liang Wan was so surprised when she heard the news that she jumped up from her chair and smiled. "She has finally come to this day! I want to see what she is so proud of now."
"Miss, this is such a big thing, I wonder if the Shi family in Suzhou knows about it?" Liang Wan was originally a simple-minded person, but she couldn't help but have a maid around her who would add fuel to the fire.
Hearing the maid say this, Liang Wan smiled even more happily.
"Right, right, right! How could we not let the Shi family know about such a big thing? Look at their well-educated daughter, and how miserable she is now!"
In addition to paying attention to Shi Li's affairs, Liang Wan also secretly fell in love with Yu Mo.
After meeting him that day, she couldn't forget him and waited for He Hong to invite him to her home so that she could meet him. But she waited and waited, but He Hong never mentioned this matter again.
Finally, she lost her patience and took advantage of the time when Ho Hung was not out to mention Yu Mo in a roundabout way.
"My uncle promised to invite them to our home before, and it would be bad to break his promise." Liang Wan thought she was being tactful, but her thoughts were written all over her face.
How could He Hong not understand what she meant and smiled awkwardly.
Fortunately, there were no outsiders around, so he told Liang Wan the truth, "I asked him, and it's really inconvenient for him to come... He already has a girl he likes, and he's just waiting for the right time to propose."
Liang Wan's face suddenly turned pale.
"Hmph, what's so great about it!" After saying that, she left without looking back. But when she got to a place where there was no one around, she got angrier and angrier and burst into tears.
As for Shi Li, she spent a few rare days of peaceful life in her own house.
Without the Liu family's trivial matters to worry about, the shop business under her name is operating normally. She reads books and takes a walk in the house every day. There is really no worry at all.
"Miss, Yu Mo is here."
When she was walking in the back garden, a maid came over to report to her.
These days, Yu Mo would come to visit from time to time, which made everyone in the house used to it. He didn't come for nothing every time, and he always found a suitable reason.
On the first day, he sent last year's accounts to Shi Li, asking her to take a look at them, after all, she had invested the capital in the first place.
The next day, I got some excellent pre-rain Longjing tea and sent it to Shili to taste. Then, as it was noon, it was natural for her to stay for lunch...
Today, I don’t know why.
The first or second time, Shi Li didn't think anything of it, but after so many times, she finally realized that something was wrong.
Hearing that he was here again, I couldn't help but frown slightly, "What does he want?"
The comments were silent on the surface, but they were complaining like crazy in private.
[What's the purpose? What else can you want! ]
[I've never seen a host so stupid~]
[Yu Mo is so good! He is handsome, rich, and a younger brother. How can the anchor not be attracted to him? ]
Shi Li was sitting under the corridor when she saw the maid bringing Yu Mo in from outside.
He was wearing a moon-white gown today, with his hair tied up high. He had a vague feeling of moving from a boy to a young man, and his handsome brows were full of calmness.
When he saw Shi Li, he also bowed politely, "Boss, I wonder if you have finished looking at the account book from yesterday?"
This time he came to ask for the account book.
Shi Li hurriedly asked the maid to get the account book, but then she felt that she seemed to be overthinking. In order to ease the embarrassment, she asked about Yu Mo's business outside.
"There will be a grand event in Liuzhou next month. If you are interested, can we go together to take a look?" Yu Mo talked about some things outside, and as if he said this unintentionally, he extended an invitation to Shi Li.
