Chapter 1301: The Mermaid in the Mansion
When the servant came to report that the head of the Su family had come, Shi Li and Wen Rending were also present.
Shi Li always liked lively atmosphere, and Wen Rending knew this, so without thinking, he took her to the front yard where guests were crowded.
If Shi Li hadn't protested strongly, Wen Ren Ding would have been ready to hug her as usual.
Although Shi Li is a mermaid, she doesn't want to be socially excluded in the Wenren family's social circle, so she forces Wenren Ding to find her a wheelchair, and she sits in it to watch the fun.
In this era, the separation between men and women was not very serious, and many female relatives came with their elders to congratulate and eat at the banquet, marveling at the Wen family's wealth and the rare and precious herbs in the back garden.
Since the head of the Su family has come in person, Wen Renqing naturally has to return the proper courtesy and go to entertain him in person.
Wenren Qing glanced at Wenren Ding and selfishly wanted him to go with him, but he was afraid that Wenren Ding would not want to go, so he hesitated.
Shi Li saw through his thoughts, stretched out her hand and poked Wen Rending's sleeve, whispering to him: "You should go and have a look, and come back and tell me what kind of person can make a business as big as ours."
"The Su family is not as good as our family." Wen Renqing heard it and corrected it reluctantly, but when he heard Shi Li said "our family" without any hesitation, he was still very happy.
As long as his son is no longer alone, Wen Renqing doesn't care at all whether his daughter-in-law is a human or some other species.
Wen Ren Ding was definitely unwilling to leave, but since Shi Li had already spoken and was now looking at him eagerly, he had no choice but to agree.
Before leaving, he specifically asked his servants to call Wang Cuilu and Wenren Xinqing over, fearing that Shi Li would be bored staying here alone.
As soon as they left, some blind people bumped into them.
"Are you the mermaid that Master Wenren bought?"
A spoiled and sharp voice came from behind. Shi Li turned around and saw a young girl who had just come of age walking towards her, holding the hand of a servant. Her hair was full of pearls and jade, and she was so dazzling in the sunlight.
The unfriendly aura of this visitor made Shi Li blink in confusion.
Could it be that Wen Ren Ding left her with a romantic debt?
Shi Li was not in a hurry either. He waited calmly for someone to come over and answer his questions.
"Miss Dai..."
Seeing that the girl had ill intentions, the servants around her immediately stood in front of Shi Li, fearing that she might make any mishap.
Last name Dai?
The woman with a head full of pearls and jade really lived up to her surname.
Shi Li curled her lips and asked the servant to step aside, "I'm fine. Miss... Dai wants to talk to me, so I'll talk to her."
"Who are you? Are you qualified to talk to me?"
Miss Dai, who almost had the five characters "Ai Mu Wen Ren Ding" written on her forehead, raised her neck proudly and looked at Shi Li with disdain on her face.
"Then why did you come over here on your own initiative?" It was impossible to feel inferior to herself, Shi Li even smiled at her.
In her eyes, this little girl was like a naughty child who could not be made angry at all, but she would not give in to the naughty child either.
Miss Dai was like a qualified cannon fodder. She was easily angered by Shi Li and pointed her finger at her. "You are a mermaid and you are not worthy of Master Wenren. The only reason you can stay in the Wenren family is because you can produce mermaid pearls and mermaid silk!"
After hearing this, Shi Li was stunned.
Something that she had always ignored was now revealed by this cannon fodder Miss Dai.
Everyone knows that the most precious things of the mermaids are the mermaid pearls made from their tears and the mermaid silk woven by their bare hands.
But she had been here for so long, and Wen Ren Ding had never given her a chance to cry. Even the piece of shark silk that was sent to the seamstress was woven by her in secret.
Wen Ren Ding never took the Mermaid Pearl and Mermaid Silk seriously. What he cared about from beginning to end was her as a person.
Alas, Wen Rending is such a fool. He doesn’t even know how to make use of this living gold mountain of hers. How stupid!
It’s not good to be distracted in front of strangers, but Shi Li still couldn’t help it and was a little bit in love for a while.
The next second, Wang Cuilu's furious voice came into my ears.
"Who are you? How can our Lili tolerate you talking nonsense? Are you worthy of standing here? Where is your mistress? Take this unpresentable girl out of here!"
Shi Li: ...
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that the lady who spoke so softly and gently in front of her had such a fierce side.
