After the Republic of China

In the silent night, only the sound of each other's breathing was heard.

The bedside lamp had already been blown out, and the moonlight took the opportunity to leak in.

Xiaodong lit up, glanced at Ximei, who was not very happy, and sneered, "You really think a lot, but I will probably disappoint you. Although the Luo family's conditions are not good, but Senior Sister I like it myself."

Ximei couldn't help but be upset by Xiaodong's words, and argued: "The Luo family really has limited conditions, and it's not like you haven't seen it. Miss Huihui has married in, so do you still have to work in the fields?"

Xiaodong stared at Ximei helplessly, curled his lips and said, "It's true that you're stupid."

Ximei didn't recognize this, "Why am I so stupid?"

Xiaodong rolled his eyes at Tian, ​​"Even if Senior Sister is married to Big Brother Luo, does she have to live on the other side? Besides, Senior Sister has so much dowry, she is so short of money that she has to go to the farm."

Um?Ximei was taken aback by what she said, and after thinking about it carefully, it was true.but? "You don't live in your husband's house when you marry, okay?"

"There's nothing wrong with it. When you marry, you naturally follow your husband." Xiaodong didn't want to say anything more, turned around and narrowed her eyes, "Okay, Senior Sister and Brother Luo will think about it, so don't worry about it."

Ximei looked at Xiaodong, listened to the movement inside, sighed helplessly, and fell asleep with worry.

When she was silent, Xiaodong breathed a sigh of relief and fell asleep.

The next morning, the sky was bright and clear.

Shao Yunshi and Xiaodong did morning exercises, and Ximei yelled.

Shao Yunshi frowned, "Go and see, what is she calling?"

Xiaodong took the order and rushed out immediately.

In fact, they didn't stretch their hands and feet elsewhere, they were in the courtyard. It was only a short distance for the Ximei people to carry water in the front yard, so they shouldn't have shouted.

Sure enough, after a while, Xiaodong turned back.

Shao Yunshi has arrived in the ear room, ready to freshen up.

As soon as Xiaodong jumped in, he immediately took Shao Yunshi's hand and shouted, "Senior sister, old steward Zhang is here."

Um?The butler Zhang is here?I just talked about him yesterday, and here I am today.

Shao Yunshi gently pulled out her grasped hand, wiped a towel, and said angrily, "Why are you yelling, Mrs. Zhang is here and just entertaining you, why are you yelling? Where's Ximei?"

Xiaodong took a pot of hot water from Shao Yunshi and started to wash, "Senior sister, the old butler Zhang came with the old man's words, and asked if you cleaned up, the old man will come over, turn around, he has to rush back .”

Hearing this, Shao Yunshi hurriedly said: "Okay, wipe your hands quickly, go to the front and say something, I'll be right there."

Knowing that Senior Sister still needs to change clothes, Xiaodong nodded obediently, "Then I'll go first, Senior Sister, don't worry, Uncle Zhang is drinking tea and talking with Old Housekeeper Zhang."

"Where's Ximei?" Shao Yunshi looked outside.

Xiaodong smiled and said, "She was stopped by the nanny and went to Luo's house to return the basket."

"No wonder you and I used a basin of water. It turned out that there was no water. Come on, go quickly." Shao Yunshi glared at Xiaodong angrily, this girl is so lazy that she doesn't even drink hot water.

Xiaodong also knew that it was too much for him not to pick up Ximei's water just now, so he quickly shrank his head, planning to bring back the water that fell halfway, and then go to the front.

It doesn't matter, as soon as she arrived outside the courtyard, she saw Zhang Leizi coming here with water.

Xiaodong hurried up and asked, "Brother Leizi, is the water still hot?"

Zhang Leizi liked Xiaodong in his heart, seeing her hurrying away, he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the water is still hot, I'll bring it to you right away."

Grandma Miao is very strict, Zhang Leizi is a boy, he can't enter the backyard, and he can only mention it at the gate of the yard.

Xiaodong hurried forward, intending to take over.

Zhang Leizi directly shook Xiaodong's hand, "You rest, I'll be fine."

If someone else said that to Xiaodong, Xiaodong would definitely jump up, but it happened to be Zhang Leizi.To him, Xiaodong always feels weak, and he is much more honest.

"Brother Leizi, you'd better give it to me. It's only a few steps to the door. The senior sister said that she will go to the front yard in a while, and you can help pass the word." Xiaodong said in a slow voice.

When Xiaodong was talking, Zhang Leizi walked a few steps quickly, looked at the courtyard gate not far ahead, and then handed the hot water bucket in his hand to Xiaodong, "You take it in slowly, it's cold, and you're sweating. Easy to get sick."

Probably because it was too close, the young Muai boy turned around with a blushing face, and said while walking back, "I'll help you pass the message."

Xiaodong didn't see her brother Leizi's red eartips, he only held the bucket and gave a soft 'um' sound.

Xiaodong is as obedient as a cat, but she doesn't know that her situation has already fallen into Shao Yunshi's eyes.

Suddenly, there was a gust of wind and the leaves fell.

Shao Yunshi picked up a yellow ginkgo leaf, put it gently on the window sill, and called out maliciously, "Xiaodong, let's go."

Shao Yunshi's rare utterance made Xiaodong almost lose the bucket in fright.

Outside the ear room of the main courtyard in Xiahewan, there is a persimmon tree covered with frost.

Xiaodong was in a hurry, although she managed to protect the bucket, the persimmon tree was covered with frost all over her neck, and she shivered from the cold.

Seeing Xiaodong like this from a distance, Shao Yunshi felt really happy, and laughed.

Seeing her senior sister so happy, Xiaodong was shy and helpless, and called out coquettishly, "Senior sister!" and rushed into the ear room.

The two teachers and sisters were not joking people, and it was over after a laugh, and after a while, the two took each other to the front yard.

When they arrived, Housekeeper Zhang and Uncle Zhang were chatting about family matters. When they saw Shao Yunshi, they got up quickly.

The main hall in the front yard is for hospitality, and it is well furnished and warm.

Shao Yunshi politely greeted the two of them while taking off her cloak.

After they sat down again, the old housekeeper Zhang was probably really anxious to go back, so he said first: "Miss, tomorrow is the day for our family to return to the banquet. What does the old man mean by asking you?"

so?Shao Yunshi thought for a while and asked directly, "What does Grandpa mean?"

Butler Zhang said with a smile: "The old man said he has no opinion, you can make up your own mind. This banquet is at my disposal, and Aunt Bai didn't intervene."

Shao Yunshi already understood what grandpa meant, "Then I won't go back. Is there any problem with grandma?"

The old butler Zhang looked at the young lady in surprise. Before he came, the old man did say that everything was up to the young lady, but he still hoped that the eldest granddaughter would go back.

The old man was not out of face or anything else, but was thinking about the meaning of the old aunt in Suzhou, and felt that it was indeed time for the eldest granddaughter to see her.

Whether it's young masters from acquaintances in Yangzhou, or talents from other places, only by getting in touch with each other can we get to know each other better.The old man will not make the mistake of making decisions casually again.

Shao Yunshi was a little strange seeing the old housekeeper Zhang frowning, "Grandpa Zhang, did my grandmother call me back?"

Seeing that the young lady misunderstood, Mr. Zhang quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't worry, although the old lady had that intention, she was stopped by the old man."
