If he and Shi Jiang had not reconciled, Shi Jiang's restaurant would definitely belong to him now.
Although Shi Lan had the support of the Zhao Mansion, in the past year and a half, the money Shi Lan could get from the Zhao Mansion became less and less.
He already spends money when going out to socialize, but now that he is tight on money, he cannot go out to play, eat, drink, or communicate with others.
Zhou Qingli felt very uncomfortable when he thought of other people's strange looks.
Looking back on the past, Zhou Qingli felt that if Shi Lan had not seduced him, he would not have done such an immoral thing as hooking up with his sister-in-law.
He and Shi Jiang must be living a good life now, and there is a steady stream of money for him to spend.
When he thought of what his companions said about the business of Shi's restaurant being prosperous and making a steady stream of money, his heart felt hot.
If Shi Jiang is willing to reconcile with himself, it means that besides the Zhao family, he has another place that can provide him with money.
Anyway, the Shi family only has a daughter, Shi Jiang, so this family property must be left to their daughter, doesn’t that mean it belongs to him?
However, the most troublesome thing now is Shi Lan. Because of her relationship with the Zhao family, he definitely cannot divorce her.
Moreover, the Zhao family is not as easy to talk to as the Shi family couple back then.
However, no matter what, let Shi Lan get close to the Shi family first. As long as the Shi family still has some affection for Shi Lan, they won't be afraid that he won't be able to enter the house when the time comes.
For a while, Zhou Qingli racked his brains on how to let the two sisters live together peacefully, and did not even think about whether Shi Jiang was willing to reconcile with him.
If Shi Jiang knew what this scumbag was thinking, he might have to open his head and take a closer look to see if the brain inside was still there?
"Even if I want to get close to them, I don't know where they are now!"
When Shi Lan heard Zhou Qingli's accusation, she felt extremely aggrieved and couldn't help but argue.
"They have opened a restaurant at the pier now, and the business is very good. You can go find them tomorrow. Needless to say anything else, just do this first. Do you understand?"
When Zhou Qingli heard what Shi Lan said, he directly told Shi Lan the current address of Shi's family, and then whispered in her ear.
"Only in this way will they be soft-hearted and forgive you, do you understand?"
When Shi Lan heard Zhou Qingli's words, she opened her mouth in surprise.
If the Shi family opened a restaurant and made money, wouldn't the money now belong to the eldest sister Shi Jiang?
Thinking of this, Shi Lan couldn't help but feel angry.
Why is it that neither the eldest daughter Shi Jiang nor the youngest daughter Zhao Qingqing of the Shi family seem to be in conflict with her, and no one can make her happy.
When she heard Zhou Qingli's words again, her face turned blue and white.
She wanted to loudly say she disagreed, but when she thought of the Zhao family's attitude towards her now, she could only grit her teeth and nod in agreement.
"By the way, where's the money? I promised someone to go to dinner with me today. Take it out and give it to me. You don't have to wait for me to come back for dinner later. I'll just go and apologize to you."
Zhou Qingli suddenly thought that Shi Lan had gone to the Zhao Mansion to get money today, and couldn't help but reach out and ask her for the money.
Shi Lan's face was full of bitterness, but she didn't dare not give it at all. She slowly took out a cloth bag from her arms. Before she could speak, Zhou Qingli snatched it away.
Opening it casually, he saw that there were only three taels of broken silver in the cloth bag, and Zhou Qingli's expression suddenly changed.
Pointing at Shi Lan's nose, he cursed angrily: "You went to the Zhao Mansion and got such a small amount of money. Are your parents treating you like a beggar?"
Shi Lan lowered her head and did not dare to speak.
In fact, these three taels of broken silver were obtained by taking the dowry at the bottom of the box to the pawn shop. Originally, she only wanted to take out one tael to give to Zhou Qingli, and the remaining two taels were intended for herself and Niu Niu to chew.
Zhou Qingli gasped and cursed for a long time, then put the money in his arms and walked away.
Seeing this, Shi Lan burst into tears and cried bitterly while holding her daughter.
The Shi family couple over there looked at Shi Jiang with some worry, fearing that their eldest daughter would feel uncomfortable after seeing that bastard.
"Father, mother, why are you looking at me like this? Don't worry, I'm fine, only others will be in trouble. Also, you have to be mentally prepared for tomorrow."
Shi Jiang was a little helpless and said in a very determined tone.
My father and my mother looked at each other in confusion. We were mentally prepared for tomorrow. Why?
"Now that Zhou Qingli knows we are here, do you think he will tell Zhao Lan when he goes back?"
Hearing what Shi Jiang said clearly, the couple's eyes darkened and their faces looked very ugly.
"Since she no longer regards us as her parents, it has nothing to do with us whether she comes or not." Anyway, your mother and I only have a daughter like you."
Shi's father said firmly.
"What your father said is that after what she did back then, she would not have the face to come to us. Now our two families have nothing to do with each other. It is already good if we don't bother the Zhou family. If she dares to come
If I cause trouble for you here, I will go back to the village and make it difficult for the Zhou family to live in peace."
Shi's mother said to Shi Jiang in a hateful voice.
Shi Jiang felt warm in his heart, but he knew that the Shi family and his wife were still too kind-hearted. They didn't know that some people's skin was thicker than the city wall.
Thinking of Zhou Qingli who was leaving today, Shi Jiang rolled his eyes and went to find Zhao Cheng.
"You want me to prepare a copy of the book for the Zhao family here tomorrow morning, and ask them to pick me up to be a guest at their house here?"
Zhao Cheng was a little confused and repeated what Jiang said with a puzzled look on his face.
"Yes, it's better to do it sooner rather than later."
Shi Jiang nodded and replied affirmatively.
"Why is this?"
Zhao Cheng was very puzzled, but Mr. Ruan next to him laughed.
"Since Miss Shi asked you to fix a copy of the book, just write a letter and send it over. Besides, you may not be able to be a guest at her house tomorrow."
Hearing Mr. Ruan's words, Zhao Cheng was even more confused, with a look of confusion on his face.
Shi Jiang stared at him speechlessly for a long time before spitting out: "Young Master Zhao can grow up safely in the mansion. It seems that your father Zun Lingtang has spent a lot of energy on it."
Hearing this, Zhao Cheng was furious.
"Shi Jiang, don't think that I can't hear that these are words that hurt me."
Hearing what Zhao Cheng said, Shi Jiang opened his eyes slightly in surprise and said: "I didn't expect Mr. Zhao to be able to hear it. It seems he's not that stupid! It's me who looked down on you, I'm rude and rude!"
With her attitude, it would be better not to explain!
Zhao Cheng almost became angry, but he still obediently wrote a letter and asked someone to deliver it to the Zhao family.
When Mr. Zhao received this letter, it was already after dinner.
"The Zhao family in Beijing? Are they from the direct line?"
After Mr. Zhao read the letter, he stood up suddenly, but there was no joy on his face, only worry.
After all, the Zhao family, a direct lineage in the capital, never got involved in the princes' factions. They always stood on the emperor's side.
