.This is the content I saw when I didn't have complete information. Now I know that this world has been reversed three times. As the source of evil appears, the fragments of the evil artifact are also...Li Renyu and Li Qinshi stayed in the study with Tong Hui for a whole two hours. After they had planned out everything that had happened before and after, the door to the study finally opened.
"Fairy Tong Hui, please stay at the manor for a while. This period of time is just right to recuperate and build up your strength. If there's an opportunity, it would be good to meet that young girl. What do you think"
Li Qin smiled and said.
Of course, I journeyed to the capital and hadn't even rested before I began preparing for the spell. There are many things to do before casting a spell, so I will make a list, and you should prepare as well.
Tong Hui flicked her whisk lightly and said in a soft voice.
"Yes, we will be well prepared. This way, fairy."
Li Qin led Tong Hui to the guest quarters with great diligence. After settling everything, she dismissed her attendants and then whispered in a low voice:
"Fairy, a common woman has a request to make."
Then Tong Hui opened her eyes and said faintly:
"Aren't you wondering where your eldest son is"
Upon hearing Hui Tong's words, Li Qin's eyes lit up, and she immediately straightened her body, saying eagerly:
"The fairy's supernatural powers are vast, she saw at once what the woman desired. I wonder if it would be possible to ask the fairy for help in finding his whereabouts"
"For your sincerity, I'll expend my effort and calculate for you."
After Tong Hui finished speaking, he raised his hand and began to calculate something, sporting an enigmatic expression. However, at the end, his brow furrowed.
"Fairy">
Seeing the other person's expression, Li Qin felt her heart jump.
"Your son has already been reincarnated."
Tong Hui's words are still relatively tactful.
"Who killed my son and took him from me so soon"
Li Qin almost gritted her teeth and asked.
Although she had prepared for the worst since her ancestor had gone silent, when she received a definite answer, her heart felt as if it had been hollowed out.
“Please forgive my inadequacy. Your son has passed away for a long time and has already been reborn. I cannot summon his soul to ask, nor can I confirm the cause of his death. I can only calculate that he died three and a half years ago, and his remains are somewhere in the Jiangnan region.”
Tōng Huì stopped her calculating fingers and said lightly.
Li Qin had already begun to weep. Hearing Tong Hui's words, she was even more certain that her son must have met with an accident on his way to Wu's family funeral. Her hatred for Lian Yi, who was now living a life of wealth and comfort, grew even stronger.
Ripples had accompanied the Li family in acting for over a month, warding off all their soft and hard schemes. On this day, Li Guan, secretly came to see Ripples and told her about Tong Hui Dao's matter.
This is also thanks to Li Family's current tight financial situation, so Ripple had Wen Lu find Li Guan, giving him a silver note worth one hundred taels. He then became their insider, and whenever something unusual happened, he would send them a message.
"I know about this. Since you're here, don't make a wasted trip. Take this notice back to Li Renyu and tell him that my new home is ready, and I invite them to attend the housewarming party."
Ripples turned his head to look at Luo Ying, who then took out a blue notice emitting a sweet fragrance and handed it to Li Guan.
"Miss, rest assured, I will definitely bring the post."
After dismissing Li Guan, Lianyi called over the maidservants, wet nurses, and nannies around her. She told them about the warm room banquet to be held in three days and then let everyone go about their duties to prepare.
Then she had Luoying and Luohuai arrange things. They took out some antique ornaments and calligraphy from one of the cars and decorated the house. The goal was to let the Li family know that she was very wealthy. Sadly, these people could only watch.
“Miss, all those schemes they had against you before were nothing but greed for your inheritance. Although you managed to avoid them, being constantly watched by the Li family isn't a good thing either. After this warm house banquet, seeing all of this, won't they become even more frenzied”
Wen has always disapproved of Lian Yi's actions, believing that she is playing with fire.
"Aunt Wen, please rest assured! Three years ago, they were already plotting against me. But luckily, Heaven was on my side. Li Jizu disappeared, their scheme failed. I moved my entire family to the manor and later invited you all, which is why I'm still alive and well today."
"It's better to lure out their greed and strike them once than to continuously be on guard against thieves. There's no point in being a thief-catcher forever."
Ripples played with the string of Buddhist beads in her hand, smiling as she explained.
"I know you're a smart lady and have your own ideas, but it's best to be careful and not go too far. Don't put yourself at risk."
"I know!"
Li Guan's post brought back by Li Guan was known to all members of the Li family. Then, on the day of the warm reception, the whole family went to the two-entry courtyard house on Wen Ding Street. From the moment they entered, to the start of the banquet, and finally being politely sent out by Lian Yi, the Li family experienced wave after wave of shocks.
Especially Li Renyu and Li Qinshi, the greed in their eyes was impossible to hide. These things were originally theirs, but now they could only watch as a young girl who hadn't even reached marriageable age enjoyed them, not even getting a crumb.
"My lord, that girl is so extravagant even for a simple warming house banquet. If she continues to spend like this, how much will be left for us when it's all said and done We need to make plans."
Li Qin twisted her handkerchief and said.
That day at the warm hall banquet, the other party's set of ruby necklace was enough to buy the entire Li Residence. She looked at it with envy, not to mention the famous calligraphy and paintings that her husband had been longing for. The people from the second house had also hinted at her several times.
"The lady is right, it's just that she seems to have reservations about us. We've invited her several times, but she refuses to stay at our house for a while. Tong Hui Xian Gu can't go to her place either."
Li Renyu also had a headache. A series of calculations beforehand had made Lianyi quite wary.
"Master, in another month will be her coming-of-age ceremony. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we can use this chance to bring her to the mansion. She definitely won't refuse."
"Do you mean to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for her"
"Yes."
Then do as you say, make the arrangements formal. When ripples serves our purpose, we'll bring her into the family. With her beauty, we can send her to the palace at that time and gain some benefits for the Li family.
Li Renyu thinks more long-term.
"Still, the old master is thoughtful. Wu Youcai, that stubborn old man, refused to help the old master back then. Otherwise, why would the old master be in his current position!"
This is Li Qin's biggest grievance, her husband being the eldest son of the Li family should enjoy the best treatment. Originally, she arranged for Li Wanwan to marry a businessman for this reason. However, this daughter of the Li family turned her arm against her own kin and left for Jiangnan in the end, and never returned, dying there with her husband.
Luckily, their daughter came back and paid them back everything she owed.
"Alright, let's drop this subject. Focus on preparing the coming-of-age ceremony first."
Lee Renyu nodded in agreement with his wife's words, but he didn't want to say more. He simply gave an order.
"Master, our finances are a bit tight right now. We don't have much money left in the account."mperor's blessing, the children are healthy and this time it was a smooth recovery. They just had a slight fever, but after taking the prescriptions from the imperial physician and with careful care,...
