After the Republic of China

Chapter 1068 Return the favor

Shao Lanxiang has always been straightforward, but after the problem was solved, she showed her temper again.

Shao Yunshi was looked down upon by her aunt, but she didn't get angry. Instead, she breathed a sigh of relief.

You know, no matter why Yu Qian didn't mention Shao Xiuxue's matter, as long as it was clear that Bai Da's matter had nothing to do with Shao Xiuxue, it would be fine.

Shao Yunshi looked at her aunt and grandfather with a smile and asked, "Will Bai Da capsize this time?"

"Maybe." Shao Lanxiang said uncertainly.

Mr. Shao said directly: "It would be best if the Bai guy could fall this time, instead of causing trouble everywhere and bringing trouble to others."

Shao Yunshi is not optimistic.

In her opinion, Bai Da has the support of a certain military tycoon in the north, and this business trip might have been instructed by that person.

However, these will have nothing to do with them, because Shao Xiuxue has been locked up. So, the Bai family is the Bai family, and the Shao family is the Shao family.

After looking at Grandpa and Aunt, Shao Yunshi asked, "Does Yu Qian have anything else to say?"

"There's no problem with Yu Qian. He was afraid that our family would be implicated, so he specifically notified us." Shao Lanxiang sighed, "Now, we have handed over the evidence, and the matter is settled."

Shao Yunshi still had some trust in Yu Qian and said, "That's good. So we don't need to call Bai Da, right?"

"I called yesterday, but unfortunately no one answered." Mr. Shao frowned in disgust, "But I left a message."

That’s good. As long as Mr. Bai is not satisfied with the world and is looking for someone, Shao Xiuxue’s matter will be completely over.

Shao Yunshi breathed a sigh of relief, "Since Grandpa has left a message, Bai Da will definitely not dare to interfere."

"I'm still standing here, how dare he come to provoke you." Shao Lanxiang sneered, "Besides, he is at a critical juncture right now, he won't cause any trouble."

Shao Yunshi was still a little worried, "Will he suspect that we know about his dealings with the Japanese?"

"Whether we have any doubts or not, we are not afraid of him." Old Master Shao sneered, "But he probably wouldn't think of this. After all, he knows that we are in Shanghai, and it is reasonable for him to catch Xiuxue by chance."

Shao Yunshi thought about it and said, "In that case, the matter is over for us."

"Well, that's probably it." Mr. Shao nodded.

"Then, the rest of the things are not something we can take care of. Grandpa and aunt don't worry anymore." Shao Yunshi felt sorry for them.

Shao Yunshi admires the decisiveness of her grandfather and aunt.

But in the end, she was still a little unsure whether Shao Xiuxue's business would go smoothly.

Old Master Shao was a little worried. Looking at his granddaughter with a worried look on her face and saying comforting words, he felt both comforted and sad.

You know, this child is about to get married.

Knowing that the child was worried about him, the old man took a deep breath and said, "Gu Man is right. What happens next is not something we can control. Lanxiang, don't think too much about it."

Shao Lanxiang was actually in a better mood than the old man. She nodded and said, "I know. Anyway, I still have to take care of the things we are hiding from my aunt, so I can't be idle."

Her words made Shao Yunshi blush a little.

The old man glared at his outspoken daughter, and seeing that it was getting late, he said, "Okay, there will probably be nothing else to do next. Our focus now is to do our best to hold the wedding, and not to talk about other things."

What he said made Shao Lanxiang feel very innocent. How could you be the one to bring up the wedding? It was wrong for her to bring it up.

When Shao Yunshi saw her aunt looking aggrieved, she was no longer embarrassed.

The father and daughter next to her breathed a sigh of relief when they saw her like this.

Shao Lanxiang thought that there were only a few days left before the wedding, so she decided directly: "Xiuxue is under the care of Uncle Zhang, so she won't make any mistakes. Let's just focus on the present."

"Well, Brother Lu and the others will be here soon. We have to do a good job of receiving them and not be rude." Grandpa Shao said seriously.

Shao Lanxiang hurriedly said, "The guest rooms are ready, don't worry, Dad."

"That's good. We are sorry to the Lu family. We must be considerate in dealing with people." Mr. Shao explained in detail. Shao Lanxiang understood it in her heart, not to mention that she and her ex-sister-in-law had a good relationship.

Having said this, Shao Yunshi offered to resign.

After all, as an unmarried girl, she felt embarrassed to talk about her wedding in front of her elders.

What’s more, the elders also brought up past grudges.

Mr. Shao and Shao Lanxiang had just been talking nonsense, and when they saw that she was about to leave, they nodded in unison.

In the following days, just as Mr. Shao said, they ignored all the affairs in the outside world.

Everyone in the Shao family was focused on preparing for the wedding.

There was no further news from Yu Qian, probably because Shao Yunshi's wedding was approaching.

Moreover, because the information Shao Lanxiang passed on was very timely, Yu Qian's work was pushed forward by a big step.

For this, Da Huang also sighed that the Shao family knew what was right and what was wrong and did not let down the kindness of their section chief.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for Shao Luo's wedding.

It was a sunny and auspicious day.

Early in the morning, Shao Mansion became busy.

The Lu family also arrived a few days ago.

Of course, for the sake of his granddaughter's marriage, Mr. Lu arrived early and also moved into the Shao Mansion.

Mr. Lu and Mr. Shao, the good friends, finally got together again after many years.

As people get older, they sleep less. As it was a happy event, the two old men got up early together.

They saw off their granddaughter who was taken to Luo's house early in the morning, and then made an appointment to stroll together.

The small study in Shao Mansion faces the back garden and has an excellent view.

Mr. Shao was tired from shopping, so he invited his old friend to sit in his small study.

Mr. Lu was a rough man and didn't care where he sat, so he just followed along.

However, after he sat down and looked around, he felt more relaxed and happy, and his depressed mood about marrying off his granddaughter was relieved a lot.

Seeing him like this, Mr. Shao smiled and said, "Mangu is a child who knows how to enjoy life. This place is well bought and decorated even better."

Seeing that he looked proud of himself, Mr. Lu sneered, "You are just trying to brag about yourself."

After these words came out, Mr. Lu was stunned. It had been so many years since the two of them had talked so freely.

Mr. Shao was also slightly stunned, then he chuckled and said, "Why not? Mangu is not an ordinary girl, she is worthy of pride."

Mr. Lu snorted at him twice, "It's the child's own hard work."

Mr. Shao did not argue with him about this angry remark, "Yes, yes, kid, make it happen on your own."

Seeing that he had given in, Mr. Lu took the opportunity to ask with concern, "By the way, there won't be any mistakes in this marriage, right?"

Mr. Shao knew that people were worried that something might happen to his son, so he said quickly, "No, no, I have arranged everything."

That’s good, Mr. Lu breathed a sigh of relief.

This topic was a bit awkward, so the two of them stopped talking about it.

We chatted about other things, which made the atmosphere better.

Mr. Lu looked like a friend who had aged a lot, and sighed, "Will you settle down in Beijing in the future?"
