After the Republic of China

Chapter 1052 Trust
The already dull atmosphere in the large study became even more depressing because of Butler Zhang's speculation.

Mr. Shao pointed at the phone and said to Butler Zhang: "Call kid Zhang and see what's going on."

Before I could make the call, the phone rang.

Butler Zhang hurriedly took a few steps and picked up the phone.

The two remaining people in the room watched closely, afraid of missing any news.

Butler Zhang, who answered the phone, was also very nervous. After a short while, he didn't say much, but he was sweating a lot.

It's so cold today, and you can see that you are sweating.

Shao Lanxiang was impatient and asked directly, "What's wrong, Uncle Zhang?"

Old housekeeper Zhang put down the phone dejectedly and sighed, "It was my boy calling. He said that the second young lady might have come to Shanghai."

"what happened?"

"It really is."

The father and daughter, one after the other, asked the same question.

Old housekeeper Zhang rubbed his face and replied, "That kid said that the master had to go on a business trip a few days ago, so he took him away. When he came back, he found that Bai and the second young lady were not at home."

"No one is at home. What's going on? Isn't Bai allowed to go out? What did mother say?" Shao Lanxiang asked hurriedly.

Mr. Shao no longer scolded his daughter for being impatient and looked at Butler Zhang.

Old housekeeper Zhang wiped his sweat and said with some embarrassment: "My boy said that the old lady is not at home."

"Ah? Why aren't you all at home?" Shao Lanxiang was surprised.

Mr. Shao's face was grim. "Someone from your maternal grandparents' family moved to Peking and has been trying to contact your mother. I stopped them and they failed."

"So, Mom went to her grandparents' house?" Shao Lanxiang looked at the housekeeper, Old Zhang.

Butler Zhang nodded uncomfortably.

Shao Lanxiang sighed dejectedly, "Hasn't it been bad enough for Mom to be harmed by the Niu family?"

When Mr. Shao thought of the niece of the Niu family, he felt disgusted and simply stopped talking about it. "What else did Zhang say?"

Butler Zhang sighed deeply, "He asked if we should urge the old lady to go home."

"Where are Mrs. Bai and the second young lady?" Shao Lanxiang asked.

"Mrs. Bai has returned home, but the second young lady hasn't come back. She said she is staying as a guest at the Bai family." Butler Old Zhang replied.

Shao Lanxiang looked at her father and said, "So, Xiuxue really came to Shanghai with Bai Da."

Butler Zhang hurriedly said: "I have arranged for someone to check."

Old Master Shao said with a sullen face, "Mangu is getting married soon. If Xiuxue comes to Shanghai, she will definitely be taken care of. I don't want any mistakes in Mangu's marriage."

This is because she was afraid that the second girl would cause trouble, Shao Lanxiang sighed deeply.

Butler Zhang was very fond of the eldest daughter. After hearing this, he quickly said, "Don't worry, old master. I saved it."

Shao Lanxiang thought of Bai Da whom she met today, and said hurriedly: "How about I ask Xiao Liu and the others to follow along and investigate."

Mr. Shao shook his head. "No, Xiao Liu and the others have to protect you and Wei Yi. Besides, Zhe Kai cannot be implicated in this matter."

Shao Lanxiang shook her head, "Dad, the Bai family's boss doesn't look like a bad guy. Our men are probably lacking in skills to investigate him."

As he was speaking, there was a knock on the door.

The three of them quickly stopped talking and listened to Shao Yunshi's voice.

Knowing it was her, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Butler Zhang hurriedly opened the door.

When Shao Yunshi came in, she noticed that the atmosphere in the room was not very good and was surprised, "What's wrong? Is it not going well to meet the guests?" "Why are you here?" Shao Lanxiang asked.

Shao Yunshi explained, "I heard that my aunt had returned, so I went to see Weiyi, and then I found out that my grandfather had also returned."

Mr. Shao loved his granddaughter very much. He waved to her to sit down and said, "You don't look very energetic. You may be cold."

Shao Yunshi snuggled up to the old man, "No, why aren't you happy that grandpa is back?"

Mr. Shao enjoyed this warmth very much, "It's nothing, don't worry about it."

"Grandpa!" Shao Yunshi shouted unwillingly.

Shao Lanxiang glanced at her father and suggested, "I think the people under Mangu are all quite useful. How about letting them join the investigation?"

"Lanxiang" Old Master Shao couldn't stop her in time, so he could only say: "Mian Gu is just a little girl, why are you telling her these things?"

Since Shao Lanxiang moved here, she has gradually realized the ability of her niece. Not only is she successful in her studies, but she has also become a big boss behind a multinational business.

Not only did she not feel disgusted by this, but she was proud of it and even praised it in front of her husband.

Jiang Zhekai is a general in the army and has his own unique way of looking at people and things.

He had always admired his wife's eldest niece's intelligence and manners, and now after hearing his wife's retelling of the story, he was not surprised at all and was even more praising.

Shao Lanxiang felt that her husband also admired his eldest niece, and she felt proud and happy.

Therefore, she heard her father's worry and still advised: "Dad, I know you are worried, but in this world today, how can there be a lady from a noble family who can really live a leisurely life?"

Not only Mr. Shao could not accept this, but even Butler Zhang agreed with it. The world is not peaceful.

Seeing that her father had nothing to say, Shao Lanxiang continued to persuade him, "Some things are better done with Aunt Man."

Mr. Shao glared at his daughter, "You have a big idea now."

Shao Lanxiang didn't dare to respond.

Shao Yunshi hurriedly came to the rescue and said, "Grandpa, Auntie is doing this for my own good, please don't be angry."

Butler Zhang was also busy helping little aunt Lanxiang out of trouble.

Everyone had spoken, so Mr. Shao had no choice but to glare at his daughter and not say any more.

"You little girl." Mr. Shao didn't mention his daughter, but still pointed at his granddaughter unhappily, "Since you said so, then you can figure out what your aunt is talking about?"

This is a bit embarrassing.

Shao Lanxiang couldn't ask her niece to take the blame for her, so she called out "Dad"

Mr. Shao glared at his daughter, "Then let's figure it out. What will be the outcome of today's incident?"

These words still made Shao Yunshi stunned. You know, she had stopped fortune-telling since she lived alone in Shanghai.

Moreover, grandpa didn’t check my homework as soon as we met like he did in previous years. Today?
Shao Lanxiang suppressed her laughter and said, "Aunt Man, let's not talk about this in detail for now. Just calculate whether what we want will go smoothly."

Butler Zhang was also convinced of the eldest lady's ability. After hearing this, he looked over expectantly.

Being watched by three pairs of eyes, and they were elders, Shao Yunshi had no choice but to compromise. Fortunately, they only considered good and bad luck, not the big deal.

There happened to be copper coins for fortune-telling in the study, so she opened the drawer directly.

Everyone felt inexplicably relieved when they saw her take action.

Now, Shao Yunshi's fortune-telling skills have improved a lot, and after a short while, she understood it all.

After receiving the divination, Shao Yunshi glanced at her grandfather and asked, "But is there something wrong with someone in the family?"

"Just tell me what the divination is." Shao Lanxiang said anxiously.

Shao Yunshi did not tell the story, but only asked: "It's not urgent. If it is handled properly, there will be no danger. Tell me, who is coming?"

"You can calculate so detailed now?" Shao Lanxiang was surprised.
