Chapter 2233: Spring is not too late
Shi Li sent Qiu Zi out.
Then, she looked up at the Tibetans’ roof beams and said, “If you don’t leave, I won’t care about you anymore.”
Mingchen was hiding on the roof beam, so he naturally heard the conversation between the master and servant clearly. Hearing what was said, he chuckled and landed lightly on the ground.
"I'm really leaving this time, you... take care of yourself." Mingchen finally stopped procrastinating and turned around and walked out of Shili's house.
When Qiu Zi came back with the new tea, she saw Shi Li looking at the door with a melancholy look on her face, which made her stop and look back outside.
"What is the girl looking at?"
"Nothing, pour me a cup of tea, I'm thirsty." Shi Li's girlish thoughts naturally couldn't be expressed, so she immediately changed the subject.
Without her help, Madam Fang was still too busy and thought she would ask Zhao Qianyue for help this time. But she didn't expect that Madam Fang sent her maid to help her with the chores.
Mrs. Fang swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
But she didn't understand. Before, Madam Fang was obviously happy for Zhao Qianyue's help, but now it was no longer possible.
"The past is the past. Now that Yu'er and Shi Li's wedding is imminent, we have to put on an act. Otherwise, if Shi Mufeng finds out, he'll think we're mistreating his daughter and won't agree to the marriage, and he'll make a scene."
Old Madam Fang thought she had everything under control, and everything she did now was to suppress Zhao Qianyue in advance.
Zhao Qianyue didn't know all these tricks. She waited in the house for a long time but Mrs. Fang didn't send anyone to invite her. Finally, she lost her patience and went to Mrs. Fang's yard on her own initiative.
As soon as she walked in, Zhao Qianyue saw that the maid beside Old Madam Fang was also there. She understood what was going on immediately. Her face turned pale and she secretly clenched the handkerchief in her hand.
"Yue'er... why are you here at this time?" Mrs. Fang seemed to feel guilty when she saw her, and forced a smile and tried to pull her over to sit down.
Zhao Qianyue avoided her and said, "It seems that my aunt is busy. I am not here at the right time. I will leave first and come to visit my aunt when she is free."
Even a clay figure has some earthiness, let alone her.
After leaving Madam Fang's courtyard, Zhao Qianyue stood in the corridor and took a few deep breaths. But she was never one to give up easily. After being defeated by Madam Fang, she would go somewhere else to get it back.
After standing there thinking for a while, he turned on the WeChat step count again and walked towards Fang Yu's yard with the maid.
At this moment, the maids were pulling Fang Yu to play cards, so that he could forget about visiting Shi Li as soon as possible. The sounds of laughter were endless in the yard.
In the end, even the gatekeeper was attracted to come closer to watch the fun, and no one remembered their duties at all.
Zhao Qianyue arrived at the gate of the courtyard and knocked on the door. After knocking for a long time, no one answered her, which made her feel embarrassed again.
Looking at the other yard separated by a wall, Zhao Qianyue took out all her anger on Shi Li.
"When she wasn't here, I was never treated like this!" Zhao Qianyue spoke in a very low voice, but with gritted teeth.
"Ah."
Shi Li suddenly sneezed loudly, and then looked around in confusion, "Am I really going to catch a cold?"
She didn't know how many times she had been talked about behind her back.
The Fang family is now preparing for Madam Fang's birthday, and people are coming in and out from morning till night. Madam Fang said not to waste money, but she didn't mean to stop it.
But she also disliked the noise and wanted to go to the farm to have a few days of peace and quiet.
Except for Shi Li who was "bedridden", everyone came to see Old Madam Fang off, making a grand ceremony.
Old Madam Fang herself also liked this kind of ceremony. Before getting on the carriage, she took Fang Yu's hand and showed him some affection, and told the people around him to serve him well.
As they were talking, Old Madam Fang noticed that the servant standing behind Fang Yu had a wandering look and looked absent-minded.
The people around her grandson naturally couldn't be vague, but Madam Fang was also afraid of scaring her grandson, so she didn't get angry immediately, but gave a look to the trusted maid beside her.
The old woman immediately understood.
After everyone had seen Madam Fang off, the old woman stayed behind with an excuse and called the servant boy beside Fang Yu over.
The maids who followed Madam Fang all obeyed their master. They smiled on the surface, but they had countless tricks in private.
There was almost no need to scare the servant, his face turned pale and he told the whole story of what he had seen and heard in the Prince's Mansion that day.
The old woman's face changed immediately, realizing how serious the matter was. She first had the servant tied up and locked up to prevent the news from leaking out. She then asked someone to drive the car and quickly left the house to chase after Madam Fang who had not gone far.
