Chapter 1223 Lend Me Your Merit (6)
Li Weirong couldn't bear to see the person she loved in trouble, so she simply said, "Hongyu, I have money now and can donate it. The merits I gain can be used on the amulet I carved for you, and the effect will be the same."
"No, how can I use your money to earn merit?" Cui Hongyu objected righteously. He was so righteous that he was reluctant to use Li Weirong's money to earn merit for himself, but he was willing to use Li Shichu's money without hesitation. What a double standard.
"Wei Rong, you have helped me a lot. I can't take advantage of you and spend your money." He said gently, "I will graduate soon. When I get a job and earn a salary, I can save money slowly. You don't have to worry."
Li Weirong couldn't help but remind him: "But Hongyu, the amulet I drew for you won't last for a few months. I can't wait for you to save money slowly."
Cui Hongyu choked for a moment, but finally sighed helplessly and said, "Wei Rong, life and death are determined by fate. No matter how unlucky I am in the future, I will accept it."
Hearing what he said, Li Weirong couldn't hold back any longer and immediately said, "Hongyu! Don't be silly. At most, you can just think of it as borrowing my money and pay it back later. Is that okay?"
After a while, Cui Hongyu said, "Thank you, Weirong. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would do..."
So Li Weirong transferred the money in her account to several charitable organizations and donated them, leaving only a few months of living expenses.
Li Songbai felt that he owed her, so he was very generous in giving her pocket money, especially in the first one or two years after he recognized her. However, the company's profits dropped sharply in the past two years, and Li Songbai's wealth shrunk greatly, so the pocket money he gave to Li Weirong was reduced a lot. However, after accumulating over the years, it was still a large sum of money.
Now, in order to gain merit, she donated this considerable amount of money, so she was instantly reduced to her original form, becoming the same as when she was first recognized by the Li family, with a bank balance of less than five figures.
However, even though she donated a large sum of money, she gained very little merit because she was actually taking advantage of loopholes to gain merit.
Li Weirong returned to the Li family and found an excuse to ask Li Songbai and Li Fenfang for another sum of money to donate. However, the merit she got was still like the difference between a drop of water and the ocean compared to what Cui Hongyu needed. Therefore, in order to get more, she decided to go out and use the mysterious arts she had learned to gain merit.
But now she didn't have the book "Chaos Yishu", so her magic was not very profound. She could only do some small rituals, such as eliminating the resentment of ghosts who died unjustly, sending lost ghosts to the underworld, calling back the souls of children, or collecting some evil ghosts whose magic power was not that profound...
Even this kind of little magician is not often found. Even if there is one, she is not well-known nowadays. People will not find her even if they need her. It is often she who takes the initiative to go to people to recommend herself.
So she worked hard for a while, but found that she didn't gain much merit at all. Instead, she made herself exhausted and tired to death.
The more tired she was, the more jealous she became of the merits that Li Shichu's ancestors had left her. However, no matter how jealous she was, Li Weirong could do nothing about it except instigating Cui Hongyu to deceive her feelings.
Li Shichu had no idea how jealous her step-sister was of her. She was currently meeting her mother and her mother's boyfriend.
Li Shichu looks very similar to her mother Irene. Both of them are classical beauties with an elegant and bright temperament. Irene looks very young, and when she sits with Li Shichu, they don't look like mother and daughter at all, but rather like sisters.
"My dear, come here, introduce yourself. This is mom's boyfriend Wanzhe, a botanist." Irene introduced him to her daughter with a smile.
"Uncle Wan, hello." Li Shichu looked at Wan Zhe. He was about thirty-six or thirty-seven years old, tall, elegant and handsome. He wore a pair of silver-framed glasses and had wheat-colored skin. He looked very intellectual.
He smiled gently and said, "Then should I call you Shichu? Hello, Shichu, it's our first meeting. You really look like your mother. Both of you are very beautiful and have good temperament. I heard that you like beautiful and exquisite jewelry, so I specially designed a purple gemstone butterfly orchid brooch for you. Do you like it?" Then he handed Li Shichu a gift box.
Li Shichu looked at Irene, who nodded and said, "Take it. This is a gift from your uncle Wan. You don't have to be polite to him."
"Thank you, Uncle Wan." Li Shichu took the gift box and opened it. Sure enough, there was a beautiful and dazzling purple gemstone Phalaenopsis brooch. She liked it at first sight and said to Uncle Wan in surprise, "Uncle Wan, I really like the brooch you gave me. You really know my preferences so well!"
"It's all thanks to your mother. She often talks to me about you and shows me many photos of you. If I didn't understand your preferences, she would dislike me." Wanzhe was very happy to see that she liked the gift he gave her.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?" When Irene heard him say that, she immediately retorted coquettishly and glared at him.
She now looks more and more like a young girl in her twenties acting coquettishly with her lover. She is lively and innocent, with signs of being pampered and loved. Anyone who sees her will know that she is living a good life.
Li Shichu was relieved, knowing that after Irene and Li Songbai divorced, good things had indeed come to an end, and they would live in peace and happiness from then on.
Judging from Wanzhe's appearance, he is a broad-minded, deep, wise, responsible and self-disciplined person. Such a person is a good choice as a partner. Moreover, the look in his eyes when he looked at Irene was full of tenderness and love. It was obvious that he really loved Irene, and did not choose her because of her money or beauty.
"I was wrong, don't be angry." Wanzhe apologized immediately, held Irene's hand, raised it to his mouth and kissed her.
Irene blushed immediately and said embarrassedly: "The child is still here, what are you doing?!"
"Don't worry, Shichu has grown up now and can understand why I can't help myself, right?" Wanzhe said to Li Shichu frankly.
Li Shichu rolled his eyes and said, "Don't show off your affection in front of me, it makes me choke."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Irene pulled her hand back and coughed softly, returning from a little woman to a mother. "You are in college now, so you can find a boyfriend. But you have to be careful about your character and take protective measures. Don't get pregnant. Mom doesn't want to become a grandmother so early."
"Just because you have a boyfriend, you can't stand seeing others being single? I'm only 20 years old, why am I in such a hurry to fall in love?" Li Shichu said disapprovingly, "If you two are interested, give me a brother or sister..."
"I'm already old, why should I give birth? If you like children, go find your own life." Irene said unhappily. She didn't expect that her daughter would urge her to give birth.
