After the Republic of China

Chapter 17 Chased
Inside and outside, two waves of people, different moods.

Shao Yunshi knows Xiaodong's temperament, domineering and considerate, and Ximei's cautiousness is simply the opposite.

As far as Ximei is concerned, even if she turns on the light ahead of time, she can still be frightened, for fear that someone will cause trouble. .

Shao Yunshi didn't want the two of them to quarrel, so she took a breath and smiled to reassure Ximei, "Don't worry, it's just turning on the light, so we shouldn't just say anything."

Xi Mei raised her voice and said, "I've never seen Miss like this before."

"In the past, I didn't turn on the electric light because it was too bright." Shao Yunshi explained helplessly.

Xiaodong winked at Shao Yunshi after hearing this, as if I didn't believe it.

Shao Yunshi shook her head with a broken smile, and said to Xiaodong, who played tricks: "Okay, let's not talk about this, look at the sweat on your forehead, let's take a break first."

Xiaodong was really tired. It was winter again, and the road was difficult. "It's a little tired, mainly because the road is difficult."

In fact, Xiaodong is not very old, but he has a big frame and looks like he is fifteen or sixteen.

Asking her to run back and forth is also a helpless move due to insufficient manpower.

Seeing that she was really tired, Shao Yunshi felt a little sorry, and hurriedly moved in, "This bed is still hot, hurry up and cover it."

"Don't go to bed, the sweet soup is here." Ximei filled the soup and shouted outside.

The small clay stove is placed in the compartment, which can heat soup and boil water, and also store heat, which is convenient and fast.

Xiaodong hurriedly stood up, intending to help.

Ximei has already brought it.

Seeing that she only served two bowls, Shao Yunshi hurriedly said: "Let's put this here, you go and serve another bowl."

Xiaodong also said: "This cold day, you can't miss this bowl."

Ximei was not polite, she had left a bowl for herself, "There are more." After finishing speaking, she put down the soup bowl and walked back.

Shao Yunshi took the bowl, "There are many good things in this soup, most of which are nourishing and dispelling cold."

Xiaodong was indeed a little cold, so he quickly took a sip, "Ha, it's really comfortable."

Seeing her drinking happily, Shao Yunshi heaved a sigh of relief, hurriedly drank a few mouthfuls of soup, put down the bowl, and asked in a low voice: "Is the matter settled?"

"It's all right, don't worry about my work." Xiaodong drank the small bowl of sweet soup in two mouthfuls, still feeling a little unfinished.

"That's good." Shao Yunshi breathed a sigh of relief, gracefully squeezed the handkerchief, and wiped the corners of her mouth, "Do you want another bowl?"

"Why?" Xiaodong asked strangely.

Shao Yunshi laughed and said: "It's cold, in case someone catches the cold, I made a big urn with medicinal materials early."

"This is both food and medicine." Xiaodong didn't expect to have such an operation.

"Hurry up and add it." Seeing her slow down, Shao Yunshi urged her to do it herself.

Ximei just came in with her share, and when she saw it, she took the bowl over.

Xiaodong sat idle happily, and let go, "Thank you, Sister Xi. Turn around, and I'll tell you something new on the street."

Ximei doesn't like to go out, but she likes to listen to gossip.

Shao Yunshi saw that she even called out her sister, so she nodded amusedly, "Just be lazy."

"Who made Sister Xi warm-hearted?" Xiaodong spread her hands.

Ximei just came in and handed over the bowl, "You eat less of me in the future, that's enough."

This must not be answered, Xiaodong slurped it up by drinking sweet soup.

When she was like this, Ximei gave her big eyes.

Shao Yunshi looked at the two girls who pinched from time to time with amused expression.

After the three of them ate the hot soup, the room became lively.

Ximei was thinking about the new things outside, she cleaned up the dishes, she sat on the couch, and chased after Xiaodong to cash in.

Shao Yunshi's needlework these days is also boring, and she is happy to see the two of them having trouble.

Xiaodong did have something to say, but it wasn't about the street, but about his own family.

"Senior sister, I'm afraid the free clinic will be postponed this year." Xiaodong hesitated.

"Why?" Ximei was still very enthusiastic about helping the poor.

Shao Yunshi had already sensed that there was something strange about Luo Congbai, so she looked at Xiaodong.After all, in previous years, he had come for free consultations a long time ago.

Xiaodong thought for a while, and explained: "I went to Uncle Geng's, but I didn't hear from Brother Cong Bai."

"Master Luo still doesn't believe it?" Xi Mei exclaimed.

Xiaodong gave her an annoyed look, "The world is in chaos now, maybe we were delayed on the way."

Xi Mei was stared at, so she couldn't say anything else, she just looked at Miss.

Shao Yunshi couldn't tell what mood she was in, she just sighed.

Here, the three of them, master and servant, are worried about someone.

Luo Congbai was indeed in trouble.

"Quick, quick, run over there." At the corner of an alley, a group of people hurriedly shouted and ran away.

In the afterglow of the setting sun in winter, this group of people looked like ghosts from hell.

Every family shrank in the house in fright, and dared not let the air out behind the door.

After waiting for a long time, someone dared to open the door to do business.

One of them also opened the door.However, his house was only opened, and then closed again.

"How?" Behind the door, a male voice asked softly.

The person who opened the door replied: "They are all gone, and the streets are also as usual."

"Then go back." The male voice replied.

The two talked while walking.

When we got inside the house, the brazier was burning and it was very warm.

The one who opened the door was the owner, Gan Tang.

Gan Tang hurriedly beckoned the visitor to sit down, "Why are you being targeted today?"

The person hiding was obviously the young master Luo, Luo Congbai that Xiaodong and the others were thinking about.

He took off his coat, took a sip of hot tea, and said bitterly, "These people are here looking at the wounded."

"What about the wounded?" Gan Tang was startled.

"I've arranged the person, don't worry." Luo Congbai leaned back in the chair wearily.

Looking at him like this, Gan Tang knew that he must have gone through a lot of twists and turns just now, and said with emotion: "It's a bit strange that this mistake happened."

Luo Congbai sighed, "The life of the Central Committee and the Central Committee is not easy, and it is inevitable that people's hearts will fluctuate."

Probably because he was very irritable, he smacked his face several times.

Gan Tang said with a cold face, "I don't know which link went wrong, it's really hard to guard against."

Some tasks are not specific to the person in charge, so it is not easy for others to ask more questions.

Luo Congbai did it alone to receive the wounded.

Gan Tang didn't ask any more questions, and he naturally didn't intend to say that discipline should be kept in mind, so he said, "In the future, we can only act more carefully."

Gan Tang said 'hmm', looked at Luo Congbai, and asked, "Do you want my help this time?"

Luo Congbai shook his head, "No need, if I didn't pass by your house, I wouldn't hide in."

This means that he will not be asked for the time being.

Gan Tang understood, and no longer mentioned the task.However, thinking of something, he looked at his friend with some hesitation.

Luo Congbo people are very tired, but their spirits are very high.

Seeing Gan Tang like this, he smiled, "Say what you want, we two are with each other, don't act like this."
