As for the following question, what does the disappearance of two living people have to do with her, Chen Li?
It's completely unrelated, okay?
The two men were woken up by the impact on the road, and then fainted from the pain. This happened repeatedly several times. When they were fully awake, they found themselves in the deep mountains and forests.
The two of them hugged each other, trembling all over, looking at the tall and dense trees around them, and had no idea which way to get out of the mountain.
Moreover, the two men listened to the movement behind them and slowly turned around. The smell of blood on their bodies seemed to attract large beasts.
When the two men saw a somewhat thin tiger, they met the tiger's fierce gaze, rolled their eyes, and fainted directly. This saved them trouble.
What followed was that Chen Li was not paying attention. She had already wandered around in the mountains. The main purpose of her visit this time was to find some fruit trees, the most important of which was the lemon tree. It would be great if she could find one.
It’s not that I didn’t ask in the flower and tree market, but lemon trees are not ornamental and the fruit is too sour, so no one would plant them, so I had to spend time looking for them myself.
During this time, I saw two honey nests and put them directly into the space. Maybe I will make fruit tea next summer. The more honey, the better.
Well, there is still honey in the space. I will make some honey grapefruit tea when I have time.
My main purpose today wasn't hunting, so I didn't set my sights on prey. After wandering around the village for an hour, I finally found two lemon trees.
Huh~
He carefully examined the tree several times, from top to bottom and left to right, and confirmed that it was a lemon tree before he began to dig into the space.
Seeing that it was getting late and she had found what she wanted, Chen Li hurried back home.
The clothes on her body were stained with some grass and mud, so she changed into a white satin brocade jacket with lotus flowers, and a skirt of the same color with some embroidered patterns on it.
Looking through the bronze mirror, he saw that his hair was not messy, so he was too lazy to comb it and walked towards the front yard.
The weather is good today, but there is also a cold wind. Fortunately, the hall is big enough and there are not many guests, so there is enough space for everyone to sit.
This time, with the help of the servants bought by Chen Li, preparing this meal was an easy task.
"Ali is here."
Chen Li greeted them with a faint smile on her face, but there was still a slight sense of alienation.
Shen Zhenyuan looked at the girl who was growing up to be more and more outstanding, and sighed that it had been many generations since their Shen family had produced such a beautiful and talented young person.
It’s a pity that Ali is a woman, otherwise she would have achieved a lot in her life.
"Fourth Grandpa, you look much healthier."
Shen Zhenyuan: "Yes, now I don't have to worry about anything, not even the family matters. The burden on Fourth Grandpa has suddenly been lightened."
Although he said it lightly, Shen Li still caught the trace of regret in his eyes.
Before Chen Li could say anything, she saw her sister-in-law coming out with the child in her arms. She showed the child to everyone and then quickly took the child back into the house.
It's cold now and children shouldn't be exposed to the wind. It would be bad if they catch a cold. It's also difficult to use medicine for such a young child.
The meal was served on time at noon, and steaming hot dishes were placed on the table.
Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui were entertaining people with Shen Jingyuan. Shen Li never liked such occasions. She first walked into the house and sat at the same table with her sister-in-law and others.
There was a charcoal brazier in the room before, so it was quite warm. There were a few familiar female relatives there, Yun Niang, Shen Xiaoya, and the two aunts of the Shen family. In addition, Shen Lin and Li Qiaolan were also there, so it was quite lively.
The food on the table included chicken, duck, fish, pork and mutton, which was very rich. Everyone ate and talked at the same time. Chen Li ate the food in front of her and said a few words from time to time.
Little Shen Mochi was very well-behaved. He was sleeping soundly in the cradle at the back without crying or making any noise.
The meal lasted until the end of noon. After staying at home for a while, Chen Li took his third brother to Qingxi County.
There was sunshine at noon, but now the weather has become gloomy. The sky is covered with dark clouds, and it looks like it is going to snow again.
Soon it was halfway through the day and Xu put up a sign saying that the store would be closed the next day. There were still quite a lot of people in the store, so the two men saw this and pulled the carriage to the back door and entered the store from there.
First, he took the key to open the warehouse and took inventory. As soon as he opened the warehouse, he saw Bai Yaobei's New Year gifts, two pounds of pork for each person, a bag of cakes, candies, melon seeds, peanuts, and some cloth that had been divided into male and female categories based on the color.
After making sure that there were not too many ingredients left in the store, Chen Li returned to the third floor. On the way, she saw the waiters and maids running back and forth, very busy. Even the people in the backyard who were responsible for baking cakes were busy as hell.
After returning to his office, he took out the red envelopes and small change he had just bought on the street, and put one or two taels of silver in each red envelope. It was the New Year, and he wanted good luck.
Soon, the sky gradually darkened and goose-feather-like snowflakes fell quietly. The originally busy half-day leisure work gradually stopped. After they had almost finished cleaning, Chen Li went downstairs.
Bai Yao had already taken out the New Year gifts and piled them on the table. There were red auspicious characters on them, which made the atmosphere look a bit like the New Year.
"Alas, Boss, it's such a loss to be closed for so many days!"
Chen Li: "There's nothing we can do about it. Just look at which shops are open during those days."
"That's true."
"Okay, it's getting late. Let's distribute the New Year gifts and then arrange the staff."
"Yeah, okay."
Bai Yao originally wanted to send it directly, but thought about whether she should say a few words at this time, so she looked at Chen Li, who immediately looked away.
Bai Yao: Okay, she understands!
Since the boss didn't want to go, she, as the shopkeeper, had no choice but to go ahead.
After a few babble of words, she distributed the New Year gifts neatly. Chen Li handed the red envelope to Yang Gui, signaling him to pass it on.
Next, a few servants were arranged to live in the store. Although it was a holiday, someone still needed to guard the store.
Next, Chen Li brought these people back to Daohua Village. When they came in the afternoon, they set up two carriages and borrowed another carriage from Chunhui Road. With three carriages in total, they managed to squeeze back.
When we returned to Daohua Village, it was already dark and it was snowing. Even though we had torches, our speed still slowed down.
When I got home, the door was open and Shen Changshan and Shen Jingyuan were standing outside waiting.
"Ali, next time you can't make it back before dark, just come back the next day. Don't rush."
Shen Changshan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly warned his daughter that it was snowing and dark, what if something happened?
