Chapter 1619: Earning Small Money Quietly
Later, the servants from Liu's mother's courtyard came to inform Shi Li to go to the main courtyard for dinner in the evening.
"it is good."
Shi Li happily agreed, but after the people left, she couldn't help but sigh.
She had been having a good time eating in her own yard these days. She could just ask the small kitchen to prepare whatever she wanted to eat, and she didn't have to worry about other people while eating.
She really didn't want the blessing of going to the main courtyard to have meals with her mother-in-law.
"Maybe the madam knows that the son-in-law hasn't returned to our courtyard for several days, so she wants the young lady to go over and ask." The maid whispered beside her.
Liu Qihan was a foolish man. After being ordered by his father that day, he hid at his mother's house for half a day. Then in the evening, he simply found an excuse to leave the Liu family and had not been seen for several days.
Everyone around Shi Li was furious, but she was the only one who was happy and at ease.
As it turned out, the maid guessed half of it.
When Shi Li arrived at Liu's mother's main courtyard on time, she saw Liu Qihan as expected. Liu's father was also there, and the whole family was together.
In front of Liu's father, Liu Qihan didn't dare to turn his face away from Shi Li. Even though he was showing resistance after seeing him, he didn't dare to have any bad expression on his face, let alone say anything bad.
This scene made Shi Li, who was originally reluctant, instantly happy.
The annoying people feel more uncomfortable than her, so she feels much more comfortable.
With her parents and elders in front of her, she naturally couldn't eat comfortably. Shi Li had already thought about it and decided to ask the kitchen to prepare more food for her when she got home.
Now, like other brides of that era, she stood respectfully beside Liu's mother, preparing to serve her food.
"Good boy, we are all family, just sit down and eat. There are so many people around me, why would I need you?"
Liu's mother stopped her directly, took her hand and sat next to her.
Father Liu beside him also nodded, then looked at Liu Qihan with a look of disappointment, "You sit down too."
Liu Qihan could only sit next to Shi Li. His tense body looked like he was about to jump up and run away at any time. Shi Li felt happy again when he saw this.
When the meal was almost over, Liu's mother seemed to remember something and said to Shi Li, "I am going to the temple to burn incense tomorrow. You and Qi Han should come with me."
Shi Li didn't mind going out for a walk, but she was very unhappy about having to go out with Liu Qihan.
I was hoping that Liu Qihan would take the initiative to refuse, but who knew that he actually nodded and agreed, not knowing whether it was because of Liu's father's presence or for other reasons.
Shi Li: ...
Nothing!
The next day, Liu Qihan rode a horse, and Shi Li followed Liu's mother in a carriage to a temple on a mountain in the suburbs to burn incense and pray.
This place is a bit remote. It is said that Liu's mother doesn't like noise, so she doesn't go to other temples with a lot of incense, but comes here every time.
There were indeed not many people burning incense in the temple. Apart from them, there were only a few other families.
After paying homage, Liu's mother wanted to listen to the abbot here talk about scriptures. Worried that Liu Qihan and Shi Li could not stay, she asked them to take a walk nearby to cultivate their relationship.
But everyone knows that Liu Qihan doesn't want to develop feelings with Shi Li.
As soon as Liu's mother went to meet the host, Liu Qihan was about to leave. Before leaving, he gave Shi Li a look of disdain.
"You stay here honestly and don't wander around!"
"Okay, you should also be careful and don't get bitten by snakes." Shi Li would not indulge his bad habits. Anyway, there was only her dowry maid around her, so she simply retorted.
Liu Qihan was stunned. She didn't expect Shi Li to be so sharp in her words. She probably thought that she would just accept it submissively. She wanted to say something but seemed anxious to leave. She glared at Shi Li and left in a hurry.
Shi Li was left alone there.
"Looking at the son-in-law's appearance, he doesn't seem to be going out for a casual walk." The dowry maid muttered nearby, and when she saw Shi Li looking over, she immediately winked at the servant behind her.
The servant understood what he meant and followed quietly.
"He shouldn't do anything stupid, right?" Shi Li muttered uncertainly as he watched the servant walk out.
However, she really didn't care whether Liu Qihan was dead or alive. It was impossible for her to wait here in vain. She walked out of the temple with her maid and servant, wanting to enjoy the nearby scenery.
As soon as I walked out, I saw Yu Mo appear on the mountain road.
He did not notice Shi Li and his group not far away, who were kowtowed three times and bowed nine times along the way, with serious and pious expressions, their foreheads were bruised and their pants were almost worn out at the knees.
"This is..." Shi Li was slightly stunned.
Yu Mo bowed down, and when he raised his head again, he saw Shi Li. When he was hesitating whether to greet her, Shi Li quickly waved her hand.
"Don't ruin your business."
Yu Mo showed gratitude on his face, nodded slightly to her, and then continued to kowtow until he entered the temple.
"If you kowtow three times and bow nine times like this, what you are asking for must be very important..."
