After one night, many poems were still being circulated in the city, the first of which was Shui Tiao Ge Tou.
Liu Mo's name immediately caused a sensation in Linyang City.
In the early morning, white mist filled Linyang City again, and the bright sun was rising from the mist, emitting a magnificent morning glow.
After waking up, Liu Mo felt refreshed.
Before breakfast could be eaten, a servant came and told Mrs. Zhou to invite him to have breakfast with him.
Following the servants, the old lady and Lin Shiqi were already waiting there.
Saying hello and sitting down to eat meat porridge together. Liu Mo felt that Lin Shiqi seemed to have been looking at him with a strange look.
After a few casual glances, Liu Mo put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at her in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Lin Shiqi smiled slightly and shook her head, "It's just that dad said that the poem you wrote yesterday was bought."
"Haha, how much money does it cost to buy it?" Liu Mo laughed.
"Don't pay attention to your father. Sometimes I feel like I wish I were a country woman, so I could hit him with a big wooden spoon and open up his head."
"Old lady...be careful with your words!"
"What can't be said? Mo'er is not an outsider." The old lady said, "Speaking of which, Mo'er. I came to you this morning to discuss your marriage to Shiqi."
"Um?"
"Why, unwilling?"
Liu Mo shook his head repeatedly, "How could that happen? I'm so flattered!"
The old lady smiled and said, "Do you have any relatives at home?"
"No relatives or reasons."
"When it comes to marriage, you should follow the orders of your parents and the advice of your matchmaker. Since you are the only child, you can make your own decisions." The old lady said, "You have done a good job in Rongcheng. I, the old lady, am not someone who breaks her word.
Now, it is up to me to betroth Shiqi to you. "
"Thank you, old lady!" Liu Mo immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks and bowed to express his thanks.
Lin Shiqi suddenly blushed with embarrassment and began to sip the porridge in small sips in a very ladylike manner.
Looking at it subconsciously, Liu Mo felt that the smile hanging on the corner of her mouth was somewhat similar to Mona Lisa's smile...
"May I ask the old lady, when is the wedding date?"
"August 30th is an auspicious day to get married."
August 15th is the Mid-Autumn Festival, fifteen days later?
"So fast." Liu Mo said in surprise.
"Yes." The old lady said, "You don't have to agree in a hurry. I have other questions to ask you."
Regarding other questions, Liu Mo speculated on the next questions in his mind, and soon he had a rough guess.
"Mo'er, do you intend to obtain fame?"
As expected, this is what I was asking.
"Compared to an official career, I prefer to run a small business and be free." Liu Mo answered truthfully. "One more thing, I'm not an official at all."
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou was silent for a long time.
"Mo'er, after you and Shi Qi get married, I want to hand over the 'Jingshui Pavilion' to you. What do you think?"
"Jingshui Pavilion?"
"That's right." The old lady said, "Unlike last time, this time I will give you a sum of money as a turnover. From now on, 'Jingshui Pavilion' will be completely owned by you, and the Lin family will not take a penny from the profits made."
Not only that, if there is any loss within two years, the Lin family will subsidize it. "
"Thank you, old lady. I, Liu Mo, will not let 'Jingshui Pavilion' suffer losses." Liu Mo thanked him quickly.
"Jingshui Pavilion" is just a 'junk' in the eyes of ordinary people, but other people's trash is indeed Liu Mo's treasure.
Only such a 'trash' would not be missed by the rest of the Lin family. At the same time, the "Jingshui Pavilion" was in Rongcheng, far away from the right and wrong place in Linyang City, so that Liu Mo could have the greatest room to develop.
The only problem is that the gang used "Jingshui Pavilion" to corrupt Mo.
Originally, Liu Mo was still thinking about how to kill them all, but it was obvious that Mrs. Zhou already knew this. Now it seems that we can only send out signals without violating the river.
After eating breakfast, Liu Mo planned to bow and leave.
"Brother Liu, can you take me out for a walk?"
Liu Mo was surprised and happy, "I changed my name to Brother Liu, and you are so proactive!"
If it were on Earth, in this situation, we could fight Landlords together at night.
"What? Brother Liu, are you busy with something?"
"Whether I'm busy or not depends on whether the old lady has any errands for me to do."
Mrs. Zhou raised her hand, pointed at Liu Mo and laughed, "Humph, you brat. I'll give you an errand to keep Shiqi company."
"As you command!"

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather in Linyang City turned gloomy. Walking on the road, the slightly cold autumn wind blew up the fallen leaves on the streets, adding a sense of desolation to the once noisy city.
There are all kinds of pedestrians, cars and horses, green-clad sedans, traffickers and pawns on the city roads.
All this is so new to Lin Shiqi, who has been living in the boudoir for many years.
Last night's poetry meeting was, after all, the first time I met Liu Mo, so I was inevitably nervous.
Naturally, I relaxed a little today, and I was as happy as a little girl along the way.
When he came out this time, Liu Mo took Zhao Da with him. On the one hand, he could continue to use him as a "mule". On the other hand, Zhao Da had practiced kung fu for several years and could act as a bodyguard.
Lin Shiqi brought a personal maid named Yuan'er.
Yuan'er's real name is Su, and she was born in a village near Linyang City. Her parents died when she was young. She was sold into the Lin Mansion at the age of three and then followed Lin Shiqi.
Although they are masters and servants, their relationship is very much like that of sisters.
Lin Shiqi entered a shopping spree in the market, with Yuan'er following behind.
Because he bought too many things, Liu Mo simply bought a pallet truck, and poor Zhao Da became a pallet truck.
"Uncle, uncle!" Zhao Da called him softly.
Liu Mo stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhao Da was a little embarrassed, "Uncle, you are really capable. I just met the young lady and she is so enamored of you..."
Oh, that little look! You specifically want to learn the skills of picking up girls from me.
Liu Mo smiled and said, "Tell me, which girl do you like?"
"Uncle, are you a god? Do you have the ability to predict the future?" Zhao Da said in surprise, "To be honest, I do have a good friend in the Lin Mansion."
"in argument?"
"Absolutely..." Zhao Dadao said, "It's difficult to raise a villain with a woman. It's such a trivial matter that I haven't spoken to you for a while."
"Zhao Da, there are many ways to coax girls, which one do you want to learn?"
"Of course it's the fastest one." Zhao Dao said.
"Quick? The method is simple, but it depends on your acting skills."
"Acting?"
"Listen," Liu Mo leaned close to his ear, "According to what you just said, you two have been friends for a long time. So you can pretend to be injured or sick. She has you in her heart, so she will naturally feel distressed. When the time comes, you will be there Say more nice things and everything will be fine.”
"Is this really possible?"
Liu Mo just wanted to continue, but saw Yuan'er turn his head, "Zhao Da, what are you doing?"
"it's okay no problem!"
"It's obvious. Why did uncle Cai pretend to be injured just now?"
"No, no!" Liu Mo was surprised, how could this little girl have such good hearing.
Yuan'er wanted to say something else, but saw Liu Mo's shocked eyes.
Turning around, Lin Shiqi saw a man walking in front of her.
The man smiled and shouted to Lin Shiqi: "What a coincidence, cousin."
Lin Shiqi squeezed out a smile and replied, "Hello, cousin."
Liu Mo frowned, with mixed feelings in his heart. The man was none other than Zhou Zhushan! ! !
