The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 128 What advice do you have for me, Uncle 2?

Li Mulan laughed, "Mom, sister, please stop staring at me like that, it's scary."

Zhang patted her in a scolding manner, "What nonsense are you talking about? We just think you are beautiful, beautiful in a different way, especially beautiful." Of course, it would be even better if there was no scar at the corner of the eye...

Qingyu also smiled, "Today's outfit is very special, like a lady from a noble family."

Li Mulan rolled her eyes and pretended to vomit, "Don't do that, it's too tiring to pretend."

Zhang immediately stopped him, "You can't do that. She's such a pretty girl. How can you roll your eyes?"

Li Mulan stuck out her tongue a little guiltily, "Mother looks beautiful today, like a fairy."

Zhang blushed instantly when her daughter praised her. "Mom is already old, how can she still be called a fairy? This dress was given to me by Qingyu last time. I thought today was a special day, so I would pay more attention to it and dress up. Your father is wearing a fancy dress today. He admired it for a long time in the room."

Li Mulan covered her lips and chuckled. It was hard for her to imagine how someone like Li Yi could show off in the house.

"Xiaojiu, have your meal first. Uncle Zhang is waiting for you."

Li Mulan was indeed hungry, so she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

"What is Uncle Zhang waiting for me for?"

"Uncle Zhang bought some servants and wanted you to go and have a look."

Li Mulan thought for a moment and looked at Zhang, "Mom, I won't go. You go instead."

Zhang was stunned. "I'm going? I..."

"Aren't you going to learn how to be a housekeeper? You can't back down. Grandmother is not here, and you, as the eldest daughter-in-law, have to take responsibility. Of course, this is the old house of the Li family, not the residence of the Grand Tutor. If you feel it is inappropriate, you can go to other rooms and ask the housekeepers to go with you. Don't worry, Uncle Zhang is here, he will help you."

Zhang became even more nervous when she heard this, "You're not going?"

Li Mulan smiled, "Don't be nervous, mother. There will always be a first time. Don't worry. Besides, we are all family, so why should we be afraid? Who is born with the ability to do those things?"

Zhang took a deep breath and said, "Okay, mother will go."

Looking at Zhang's back that looked like she was going to the battlefield, Qingyu laughed, "Looking at Aunt's appearance, if you didn't know her, you would think she was going to do something amazing."

"That's right. My mother has a soft temper. If I follow her in everything, it will be difficult for her to grow up. She has to manage the household, so she has to be independent."

"You've thought it through well, that's the truth. Do you have any plans for today?"

Li Mulan put down her chopsticks and said, "Let's go out for a walk. The last time I came here was two years ago, and I was in a hurry, so I didn't have time to go shopping. By the way, is the little grasshopper back?"

"No, I didn't come back all night."

"Then let's go take a look. Sister, do you know the locations of those shops?"

Qingyu shook her head helplessly, "It's your own property after all, you should pay some attention to it."

Li Mulan shrugged indifferently, "I just collect the money."

"You, I know there is a clothing store and an antique shop on East Street, a jewelry store on West Street, and a restaurant on North Street."

Li Mulan immediately had other ideas after hearing this, "Call Sister Fu and the others, let's go shopping together, and pick out some clothes and jewelry for them. They are all girls, they love beauty, and they have too few things, so they have to buy new ones."

Qingyu smiled, "Xiao Lian'er will definitely be happy, but the two sisters Fu and Rong will probably have to worry about spending money again."

"Haha, then I'll tell them in advance that this is my shop and they don't want any money, otherwise some of them will make trouble with me."

Whisper poked her head, "These girls have been taught too well, and I don't want to take advantage of you all the time."

"How can this be considered taking advantage? They've been nice to me, too. Look, they came to clean up my yard yesterday before they even cleaned up their own yard."

She nodded softly, "They really do take you seriously, which is good."

"So, let's trick the person out first, and then we can talk about it later, hehehe."

"Then you better be careful and don't really scare people."

Li Mulan drank a sip of tea and prepared to leave. "No way, I'm being careful."

Qingyu did not respond. She had never doubted this girl's ability to spend money.

As soon as the two walked out of the yard, they were stopped by Li Xun.

"Lan'er, where are you going?"

"Uncle, I'm going to go out for a walk with Sister Fu and the others."

Li Xun was also very pleased that the girls got along so well with each other, "Is it okay for Second Uncle to take up a little of your time?"

Li Mulan pouted, "When did Second Uncle become so unfaithful to me?"

Li Xun laughed, "Aren't you afraid of delaying your outing?"

"It doesn't take that much time," he said, looking at Qingyu, "Sister, go and call Sister Fu and the others for me. We'll gather at the gate."

Qingyu nodded, leaned towards Li Xun, and left.

"Tell me, what advice do you have for me, Uncle?"

"You little girl," Li Xun shook his head helplessly, "Today Zhang Yi bought a lot of servants for the mansion and also ordered a lot of furniture. You know about this, right?"

Li Mulan nodded, "Yes, I know, what's the matter?"

Li Xun's expression was somewhat complicated, "That's not a small amount of money."

Li Mulan raised the corners of her lips, "Second Uncle, are you worried about my money?"

"Of course I feel bad for you." Li Xun replied seriously, "Your uncles all came here just now."

"What's wrong? They don't want to?" Li Mulan was a little embarrassed. "But when I went back home yesterday, I saw many courtyards. Those things have not been used for more than ten years. Many of them are broken. We have to replace them."

"It's not that they don't want to, but they think it's inappropriate to spend your money. So, in the end, they decided that the money that each room took last night and the money spent this time should all be considered as loans. They will return it when they get the Li family's property."

Li Mulan naturally understood the twists and turns in this matter, and also knew the truth that greed is the key to success. "What does grandpa say?"

"Your grandfather agreed, so I came to tell you."

Li Mulan nodded, "My grandfather agreed, so of course I agree too." Then she thought of something and asked cautiously, "However, I'm going shopping with my sisters today. I'm going to spend some money, so you uncles won't ask me for the money, right?" It would be too boring if that was the case. Li Mulan felt a little aggrieved. Her sisters were nice to her, so she wanted to be nice to them. Isn't it practical to buy them some clothes and daily necessities?

Li Xun was amused by her expression. "That's a matter between you two sisters. We won't interfere. But you should take it easy."

Li Mulan patted her chest in a feigned fear and said, "That's better. I really thought that they would charge me for this. I might as well stay in the mansion and not go anywhere else."

"Okay, stop complaining. I think my great uncle and his people did the right thing. When the Li family returns to Kyoto, we will have to deal with many more people and things. We can't rely on others for everything. We have to stand on our own feet."

"Oh, I understand," Li Mulan waved her hands impatiently, "Isn't it just hurting your fragile self-esteem? Okay, I'll just stop interfering in the future, okay? Let you grown men let go and have a good time, okay?"

"You, that's enough, go quickly, don't let Fu Yatou and the others wait anxiously."

Li Mulan snorted, "You're talking about me now. If it weren't for you, Second Uncle, I would have gone there long ago."

"Okay, okay, Uncle won't keep you any longer, go now."
