The daughter of a general is so cool in the novel about a wealthy family
Chapter 38 Borrowing Money from My Second Brother
She continued, "As the current decision maker of the Shi family, what I have to do is to make everything go according to plan and not to cause trouble. I only need to know what decisions to make, not to be proficient in everything."
Yuan Shu has been in charge of the family for many years, so he naturally knows that hiring people is more efficient than doing everything himself.
This was the third time Li Ci realized that he had underestimated Yuan Shu.
He and Yuan Shu had only met three times, and each time, this woman made him look at her with new eyes.
The first time, he discovered the vision and knowledge of this woman. The second time, he understood Yuan Shu's mind. And today, he saw through Yuan Shu's nature. She was a strong and independent woman.
Li Ci couldn't help but wonder how lucky Shi Xiao was to be able to marry such an outstanding person.
Different from the white dress and exquisite makeup at the banquet yesterday, Yuan Shu tied her hair into a low bun at the back of her head today, which made her face look very lively.
She was wearing an apricot-colored cheongsam-collar dress with a small opening at the waist, and Baroque-style pearl earrings and a necklace. She looked elegant and playful, and Li Ci couldn't take his eyes off her.
A sincere smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I'll follow your instructions."
After a brief silence, Li Ci looked at Yuan Shu picking up the coffee next to him and asked, "You don't like coffee?"
Yuan Shu tapped the handle of the cup with his slender fingers and said helplessly, "I'm not used to drinking this."
"So what would you like to drink?"
Li Ci originally thought it was drinks, soda, red wine or something, but he didn't expect Yuan Shu to answer him seriously: "I like to drink tea. Tea brewed with morning dew or mountain spring water is the best. There are many types of tea, but I only like silver needles."
Li Ci was stunned.
The national economy has been good in recent years. No matter who you are, you have money in your pocket, and naturally the pursuit of pleasure has become more ritualized. There are many people who say they like to drink tea, but they are all amateurs who don't know much about tea.
They can only talk about some of the most popular teas, and almost no one mentioned Silver Needle, let alone the method of brewing Silver Needle.
Li Ci didn't think there was anything special about his affinity for silver needles.
However, Li Ci was a little surprised. He also liked to drink Yinzhen. This was too much of a coincidence.
Silver needle tea has a mellow aroma and a distinct medicinal flavor. Li Ci fell in love with it the first time he tasted it, but unfortunately no one appreciated it.
His beloved niece Li Ran had been drinking tea since she was a child, so how could she appreciate the taste of tea? She drank tea purely for fun. After Li Ci invited her to drink tea several times, he no longer cared about this niece.
Now that he heard Yuan Shu say that her favorite thing was silver needles, he regretted not meeting her earlier.
Although he had only fought with Yuan Shu three times, Li Ci believed that he had reached a point where no matter how Yuan Shu surprised him, he would not be caught off guard.
Yuan Shu is like a treasure. The deeper you dig, the more you can discover her preciousness. She is also like a cup of tea. It is not the kind of vanilla that can be tasted in one sip, but the kind that exudes a different aroma with each brew.
He did not hide the admiration in his eyes, stared at Yuan Shu, and said bluntly: "Yuan Shu? I don't know if I can call you that. Calling you Madam Shi is a bit too formal."
Yuan Shu didn't know what kind of changes her words had brought about in Li Ci's heart, so she said generously: "Of course, Mr. Li, please go ahead."
"Then you don't have to be so polite, just call me Li Ci."
At the same time, Li Ci also sat up straight, leaned forward slightly, and then stretched out his right hand to Yuan Shu, "Let's get to know each other again, I'm Li Ci."
Yuan Shu also stretched out his right hand, "I am Yuan Shu."
Li Ci just shook Yuan Shu's fingertips gently.
Ever since Yuan Shu came here, she has been puzzled by the custom of shaking hands with strangers in this era, but Li Ci's handshake today made her suddenly understand the existence of this etiquette, which was very respectful and friendly.
Li Ci joked, "Since you don't like coffee, let's meet at the teahouse next time. I happen to have a batch of top-quality silver needles here. You can try them."
"That's good, of course."
Li Ci handled the matter quickly. The next morning, another post appeared on the hot search, "Lin Feng has a child?!"
When Shi Lu saw this hot topic, he explained to Yuan Shu, "Lin Feng is the top star of Zhou's entertainment company. He has been very popular in the past three years. The Zhou family has spent all their resources on Lin Feng. Li Ci was able to get the Zhou family to use Lin Feng as a scapegoat and drive him out. It seems that the relationship between the two is not ordinary."
Yuan Shu nodded silently. She was not curious about their relationship at all.
After breakfast, Yuan Shu received a gift from Li Ci, which turned out to be a box of beautifully packaged white silver needles.
Shi Lu looked at it curiously, "Why did he give you a box of tea? What did you two talk about yesterday afternoon?"
Yuan Shu closed the lid of the box and said calmly, "We didn't talk much. I just told him about my favorite tea and he sent a box over. When are you going to return to the crew?"
Shi Lu supported the back of his head with his uninjured hand and leaned comfortably on the sofa. "Why rush? This matter has been resolved. I will just take a good rest. The money I spent these two days can be regarded as a lesson to the mastermind."
After Yuan Shu returned to her ancestral home, she would ask Wu Yan to prepare a large plate of fresh red strawberries every morning. She would pick one and put it in her mouth. The taste relieved a lot of her fatigue from her morning run.
After eating strawberries, Yuan Shu turned on the TV and found the financial channel. While watching, he said, "I'm going to invite Liu Fangyu to our house for lunch. Please dress carefully and don't dress too casually."
Shi Lu looked at the cotton pajamas on his body and asked, "Doesn't this look good on me?"
"It's okay, but Liu Fangyu is a guest, so you should change your clothes."
Shi Lu pouted and said nothing more.
The next morning, the two were busy with their own things and did not disturb each other. Yuan Shu concentrated on reading the financial news, while Shi Lu put on headphones to watch a drama to hone his acting skills.
It was almost noon when Yuan Shu received a call from Shi Bin. On the one hand, the investment plan had been prepared and the documents had been sent to Yuan Shu. This project had great profit potential. On the other hand, Shi Bin had classes in the afternoon, so he stayed in the dormitory at night and went home on weekends.
After hanging up the phone, Yuan Shu opened the files in his mailbox. Modern technology is indeed convenient. He can receive important letters in a few seconds, which is more convenient than riding a fast horse.
After reading the investment plan, Yuan Shu had a general idea in his mind, so he walked to Shi Lu and patted him on the shoulder.
Seeing that Yuan Shu had something to say to her, Shi Lu took off his headphones and sat aside, making room for Yuan Shu.
"Sister-in-law, do you have anything else to say?"
Yuan Shu said calmly: "I want to borrow some money from you."
Shi Lu was stunned. "Borrow money? What for? There is no balance on my brother's card?"
