Chapter 296 Jealousy and Greed
Ripple slowly stepped into the hall, and there was a sound of breathing in the hall. Although it was very slight, Ripple and the people around him heard it.
Ripple's beautiful eyes moved around, taking in everyone's stunning, jealous, and greedy eyes. Then he stepped forward and bowed slightly:
"I have met my two uncles and aunts. Lianyi is very polite."
Then, without waiting for Li Qin to say anything, she stood up straight, moved lightly, and sat on the chair prepared for her.
Lianyi is wearing what she is wearing today, but she only chooses the expensive ones and not the right ones. A pleated embroidered dress of Liuyun gauze worth thousands of gold, a complete set of Dongzhu hair and face, and only an imperial green jade bracelet on her wrist, which makes Li Qin's The veil was almost torn.
What it shows is that I am rich and I am not short of money, but unfortunately you can only watch.
After the Li family sat down in Lianyi, they discovered that the other party's show shoes had two quail egg-sized pink beads sewn on the uppers, which was extremely luxurious.
The eyes of the female members of the Li family were gleaming, and they wished they could pull the Dongzhu off the pair of showy shoes. It was not until Lianyi put her feet back and her dress covered the uppers of the shoes that they looked back.
Li Renyu coughed slightly, interrupting the awkward atmosphere in the hall, and asked with a smile:
"Lianyi, you have worked hard along the way. I wanted to take you to live in the capital three years ago, but it was too late. You moved to Zhuangzi to keep your mourning."
"Thank you uncle for your concern. Although the people you sent arrived only three months after my father was buried, I still remember this emotional ripple.
It's just that this trip to the capital was a bit dangerous. The guards sent by my uncle were a little ineffective. When bad guys blocked the way, they actually abandoned me. In the end, only two people were killed by those bad guys! "
Lianyi's main theme is sincerity and authenticity. As long as Li Renyu asks, she will tell the truth.
"And that Mrs. Li actually showed off to the maid next to me. How much does she look down on me? So why did she go to pick me up? I think this was definitely not arranged by my aunt. No matron would do something so stupid. thing."
Lianyi looked directly at Li Qinshi.
"Don't worry, Lianyi. Although I didn't arrange this matter, I am also responsible. I was ill during that time, so I asked Aunt Sun to take care of the affairs of the house temporarily, and sent a blind woman, which caused many misunderstandings. , that woman has been betrayed by me."
Li Qin said calmly that it was Aunt Sun who did this, and she would not take the blame.
"I see, I asked how could my aunt make such a stupid mistake, which almost made me blame her.
However, since my aunt is ill, there is no reason to let my concubine take care of the middle child. Doesn’t there still be a second aunt? "
Lianyi stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist and said with a smile.
A flash of anger flashed across Li Renyu's face, but he couldn't argue with the junior, so he could only wink at Li Qin, who then said lazily:
"Lianyi is right, I will punish Aunt Sun when I return to the backyard."
It would be best to take this opportunity to deal with this thorn in the side.
"This is my aunt's right. I won't interfere. I'm just telling the truth. I don't want to get into trouble with you."
"Yesterday, the maid next to me sent the wrong message. The mansion had already been tidied up in the Fanghua Garden where your mother lived before, just waiting for you to come and move in. I didn't expect that my illness would make the affairs of the mansion a bit messy. That was why Ripple had such a big misunderstanding.
You can move back today! How can we rest assured that you are staying in an inn alone? Everyone knows that the cousin of the Li family is here. If you are allowed to live outside, your uncle will not be able to get through it. "
Li Qin persuaded with a loving smile on her face, but when the other party glanced at Ripple's jade-white cheek, the flash of resentment betrayed her true feelings.
"Yesterday, a maid took me to Liuyun Garden, which was overgrown with weeds. Lianyi felt angry and felt that my uncles didn't seem to welcome me very much, so she sent someone to buy a house. When I came to visit the mansion, they had already completed the transfer. formalities."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and pretended to ask Wenlu:
"Aunt Wen, where is the new house?"
"Back to Miss, it's on Wending Street. It's a two-entry house. It's not comparable to Uncle Li's house, but it's enough for Miss to live in."
"Uncle, when my house is taken care of, please come and sit with your aunt, just in time to discuss my hair extension ceremony. I am not familiar with the capital yet, so I need my aunt to help me with it."
Ripple said with a smile.
This sentence made Li Renyu and Li Qin look a little better, and they agreed wholeheartedly, and even tried their best to invite her to come back and stay for a few days.
Ripple promised to come back and stay for a few days, and then revealed the matter. Then everyone in the room went to the dining room and had lunch. Unfortunately, none of the dishes on the table suited Ripple's appetite. She didn't even move her chopsticks and took a sip of tea. He said goodbye and left directly.
"It seems that my uncle's family is really having a hard time. They can't even put together a table of decent dishes. The meat doesn't look fresh."
As Lianyi walked, she talked to Wen Lu beside her. The maid who was seeing off the guests twitched her lips as she listened.
"Miss, when we get back to the new house, I will ask Minmin to go to Fuyun Building to order a table. Miss, please don't say this again, lest anyone who cares will hear it."
As he spoke, he glanced sharply at the servant woman, who almost dropped her head to her chest.
"Don't worry, Aunt Wen, I understand."
When she returned to her new house, Lianyi called Luo Ying to help her take off her jewelry. She felt like a mobile treasure house, with only the words "I am rich" plastered on her body.
"Miss, why do you need to irritate the Li family like this?"
Wen Lu said disapprovingly.
"It just makes them feel itchy when they see that they can't eat."
Ripple said with a sly smile.
"If they really used some dirty means"
"When the soldiers come, they will block the water and cover it with earth. Just wait and watch the show."
Lianyi waved her hands indifferently, and then went back to meditate and practice. Those evil spirits were still waiting for her to clean up!
Lianyi's appearance in the Li family was very successful, which aroused the greed of the Li family brothers. In the following days, they all began to find ways to get close to Lianyi, with the goal of getting the wealth in Lianyi's hands.
But no matter what they tried, they couldn't get a copper plate out of Lianyi's hands. The cruel Li Renyu was ready to pay for the murder, but Li Qin brought an old Taoist nun to see Li Renyu.
"Husband, this is Master Tonghui. He has a way to help us find out where the property is stored from Lianyi."
Li Renyu glanced at Master Tonghui, who had a strong sense of immortality, and asked dubiously:
"Can you really get her to tell the truth?"
"Of course, the poor Taoist is asking about her soul, and the soul cannot lie. However, this Taoist technique is a bit difficult to implement, and it will take up most of my cultivation, so..."
"what do you want?"
"I want her body to help nourish my soul."
"What does this mean?"
"Asking about her soul will hurt my soul, so I have to use her body to nourish my soul!"
