Chapter 2206: Spring is not too late
Shi Li and Shi Yu looked at each other.
They had an unfriendly relationship with Zhao Qianyue before, but now they all lived in the Fang family and kept to themselves, so what was she doing here?
But since everyone was here, it would be bad not to see them. Shi Li could only pat Shi Yu's hand in a soothing manner, and said to the maid, "Please invite Miss Zhao in."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Qianyue walked in with her personal maid, smiling widely.
As they walked, they asked, "What are you two sisters whispering about here? Is it a bad timing for me to come here?"
Shi Li: ...
So if you know it's a bad coincidence, can you leave quickly?
She complained in her heart, but she had to stand up to greet him, "Miss Zhao, what are you talking about? Yu'er and I are flattered that you can come over."
Zhao Qianyue walked up to the two of them, wearing a pink dress with gold thread, which was rich and gorgeous, making her look like a flower blooming in spring and summer.
"Sister Yu'er is still not well, so I brought some ginseng here so that you can make medicine for her. Also, since the weather is getting hot, I asked someone to make three skirts of similar styles so that you and your two sisters can wear them together."
Zhao Qianyue asked the maid beside her to put the things she brought on the table next to her, with a generous look on her face.
"Although I am only a few years older than you, I am still your sister after all. If you have any difficulties, you must tell me! I will treat you the same as my own sisters."
After hearing these affectionate words, both Shi Li and Shi Yu looked unhappy.
Shi Li took a deep breath and saw that Zhao Qianyue disliked him even more than before. He was just thinking about what to say to send her away.
Shi Yu suddenly covered his chest and started coughing heavily, one cough after another, his face turning pale.
Shi Li didn't react and was frantically patting her back, but Shi Yu quietly held her hand under the quilt, which made her understand immediately.
"Miss Zhao, Yu'er has recently contracted a cough again and has neglected you. Please don't be offended." Shi Li raised her head and explained to Zhao Qianyue worriedly.
Originally, Zhao Qianyue thought Shi Yu was just weak, but when she saw her coughing like this, she was afraid that she would infect her. She could not maintain the smile on her face and subconsciously took two steps back.
"Then I won't bother you for now. Let Sister Yu'er have a good rest. I'll come back another day."
Looking at Zhao Qianyue's hurriedly leaving back, Shi Yu stopped coughing. He raised his head and looked at Shi Li, blinked his eyes, pursed his lips and revealed a sly smile.
"You, you have deceived me." Shi Li reached out and pinched her nose, feeling angry and pitiful.
But after joking, Shi Yu looked at the things on the table and his eyes became slightly red again.
"What should we do with these things?"
Everyone in the Fang family knew that she and her sister were in mourning, and no matter how much food, clothing and expenses they sent them, they all avoided mentioning this fact.
Zhao Qianyue thought she was generous and virtuous, but she asked for two light red skirts to be sent to her. I really don't know who she was trying to annoy.
Shi Li was angry just now in the same way.
Zhao Qianyue dared to give her just a few ginseng plants, so she didn't mind accepting them. She would just buy something of equal value and send it back to her tomorrow.
But she gave me such clothes, which is really intolerable.
Shi Li was not a pushover. She rolled her eyes slightly, snorted, and patted Shi Yu on the shoulder, saying, "Don't be upset. I... will just talk to the old lady."
If she returned it directly to Zhao Qianyue, she didn't know whether she would be considered ungrateful, and there was no guarantee that she would do it again.
So, Shi Li thought of a way to solve the problem once and for all.
Usually she only went to talk to the old lady and pay her respects in the morning and evening. Today, she found out that the old lady was not taking a nap at this time, so she asked Nanny Gu to take the things Zhao Qianyue had sent and accompany her to Old Madam Fang's yard.
When Shi Li entered the room, the old lady was lying on the couch with her eyes closed, resting.
When he saw her coming, he immediately smiled and said, "It's so hot at noon, why did you come all the way? Didn't you greet me this morning?"
When it doesn't involve her own interests and her precious grandson, it can't be said that Madam Fang has no sincerity towards Shi Li.
But this is rare and changes rapidly.
Shi Li paused, raised her head and called out aggrievedly, "Grandma..."
"What happened? Who bullied Li'er? Tell me everything!" Old Madam Fang was so shocked that she reached out and pulled her over, looking her up and down carefully, fearing that she had been wronged.
It was not smart enough to complain directly, so Shi Li just kept silent and cried in Madam Fang's arms. Finally, she raised her red eyes and said, "Miss Zhao gave me a gift today, but... does she dislike me?"
"Gift? What gift?" Old Madam Fang was confused. She had never thought that Zhao Qianyue could win people's hearts so quickly and even set her sights on the Shi sisters.
When she saw the red clothes in Nanny Gu's arms, Mrs. Fang's expression suddenly changed.
Shi Li and Shi Yu's mother is her own daughter, the only jewel in her palm!
