After the Republic of China

Huaiyuan is not big or small, and it takes a lot of effort for people to come and go in a few steps.

Ximei has to spend more time following people.

No, she came back quickly.

Shao Yunshi raised her head curiously, glanced at her, and asked, "Why did you come back so soon?"

There is a distance between Huaiyuan and the main house, and Ximei comes and goes too fast.

Ximei patted her chest, gasped, and replied: "Not long after I went out, I caught up with that old woman. She looked around in our Huaiyuan, and she was not a good thing."

Shao Yunshi understood and nodded lightly.

"Miss, it looks like we have to find another mother who is the gatekeeper." Xi Mei said worriedly.

Shao Yun Shao nodded, "It's really time to find a proper mother. No, the mother who guards the door is not here today?"

Xi Mei had long seen that the old woman who was guarding the door was not pleasing to her eyes, and immediately became angry, "Not here, this old woman is probably lazy and went out for a stroll."

The old lady who is the gatekeeper was assigned by the main courtyard, these things are not considered big things, and it is not good for Shao Yunshi to find her grandfather to complain about such things.

However, guarding the portal is really not unimportant.Otherwise, it would not be so easy for this woman to enter Huaiyuan today.

After thinking about it, Shao Yunshi suppressed the words first, then turned around and asked, "Tell me where did that woman go?"

"Hmph, where else can I go, she wasn't sent by the old lady at all, she went directly to the big kitchen." Xi Mei said dissatisfiedly.

"To the big kitchen?" Shao Yunshi pondered strangely.

Today's day is too special and important, Shao Yunshi can't tolerate the slightest mistake from others.

Now, such a thing happened halfway, and she had to pay attention to it.

Seeing that the lady's expression was not right, Ximei hurriedly said: "How about I go to the big kitchen again?"

Shao Yunshi shook her head, "No need."

"Then shall we prepare the banquet?" After finishing speaking, Ximei suggested again: "How about I go to Xifutang to search for my mother, or sister Ouxiang?"

It's not good for Shao Yunshi to know that she doesn't know about it, after all, that woman doesn't dare to spread rumors, maybe there is something wrong with this matter.

Then, she nodded and said, "Then you go, remember to be quiet."

Ximei hurriedly said: "Forget it, if I can't see Elder Sister Ouxiang, I'll go to my aunt's yard to find Xiaocui, and ask her to ask for help."

That's fine, Shao Yunshi told Ximei to be careful, and let her go.

At the same time, the Shao family's front yard guest room.

"What's the matter?" The one who asked the question was obviously the young master Yan Quan Yan whom Shao Yunshi met a few days ago.

"Back to the young master, the old woman said that the words have already been brought, seeing that the young lady will definitely go to the big kitchen or the old lady's yard." It was Yan Quan's servant, Liu Shun who answered.

After hearing this, Yan Quan gave a dark 'hmm' and asked again: "Is Xiuxue okay?"

In fact, he couldn't ask Liu Shun what he said.

After all, ever since that day, when he knew that Shao Xiuxue had suffered from the Fang family's loss, Young Master Yan had been looking for all kinds of things every day to relieve Shao Xiuxue's boredom.

Whether Shao Xiuxue is good or not, he himself knows best.

I only hate that Fang's family left so fast, otherwise he would definitely beat that beating boy hard to avenge Xiuxue.

However, he is the young master, so he can ask as much as he likes.

Liu Shun naturally remembered her identity, so she didn't dare not answer, and quickly replied: "Miss Shao is fine these few days, the old lady took her out a few times, and added a lot of clothes and jewelry."

Ever since Fang Kui slapped Shao Xiuxue across the face, the old aunt and grandma didn't take their daughter's family to stay overnight and sent them home.Moreover, as an apology, she seemed to have given something to Shao Xiuxue.

Mrs. Shao also felt sorry for the girl being slapped, she was a bit over it, and seeing that the child was crying miserably, she was her own granddaughter, so she took her out to relax and see the world.

These were unexpected joys for Mrs. Bai, and it also made her realize how to benefit her daughter in the future.

Naturally, Yan Quan also hoped that Shao Xiuxue would be valued by his family. In the past in Beiping, he might not have known the real status of the Bai family in the Shao family.

After coming to Yangzhou, he clearly understood that Shao Xiuxue could only be a concubine.

If his mother knew this, her attitude, which was already not very happy, would have become even more determined.

Therefore, he felt that if Mrs. Shao valued Xiuxue so much, his mother would not object to the matter with the two of them in the future.

Thinking that Shao Yunshi was a mountain in front of Xiuxue, Yan Quan's heart darkened again. He looked at his servant and asked, "The tickets for Bai's and Shao's are the day after tomorrow, right?"

Liu Shun had long been looking forward to the young master's return to Beiping, so he hurriedly nodded and said, "Well, the ticket for the day after tomorrow has to go to Pukou tomorrow."

There is no train station in Yangzhou. If you want to take a train to Peiping, you have to go to Pukou Station in Jiangbei, Nanjing, take a train to Tianjin, and then transfer from Tianjin to Peiping.

Yan Quan actually wanted to go to Nanjing for a tour, but in order to accompany Shao Xiuxue, he had to change his mind regretfully.

Hearing Liu Shun's words, he thought for a while, his calculating eyes flashed, and he said to himself: "Time is a bit urgent, it seems that the plan this time can only be simpler."

Liu Shun's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, ancestor, this is someone else's territory, you came here to hide from the troubles you caused in Beiping, why are you still trying to show off?

Yan Quan was still immersed in his own thoughts, but he didn't care about the crying face of his entourage.For the sake of his sweetheart, he can't do anything.

In the guest room, the master and servant fell silent for a moment.

At the other end of Huai Garden, Shao Yunshi finally waited for Ximei to return.

The sun was just right, and as soon as the door curtain was lifted, a strong light flashed into Shao Yunshi's eyes.

Ximei was so angry that she didn't pay attention to the young lady's expression.

As soon as she stepped into the room, there was no need for the lady to ask, she said with a depressed face: "Really, who is so wicked, making fun of us, the old lady has gone out early today, and she doesn't eat at home at all."

"Eh? What's that? I didn't hear the old lady say she was going out this morning?" Shao Yunshi asked strangely.

Xi Mei approached the young lady mysteriously, and whispered: "I heard from the caretaker mother of the old lady's courtyard that something happened to the relative of the old lady's natal family who came the day before yesterday. The old lady and the little aunt went out because of that person."

The relatives of the old lady's natal family did not live in Shao's house when they came to the house this time, but stayed in a hotel outside.

Regarding the matter of the old lady's natal family, Shao Yunshi decided not to ask if she could.

Then, she said indifferently: "Okay, whatever happens to others, since the old lady didn't say that, no, since there is no banquet at all, it seems that someone can't sit still and wants to make fun of me."

Having said that, Shao Yunshi became really angry.

Ximei's eyes turned cold when she heard this, and she gave a bitter 'pooh' sound, "What happened that day was none of Miss's business, because of her being beaten, the old lady not only taught Miss a lesson, but also punished Miss not to leave the garden. , isn't that enough? Mrs. Bai actually wants to make Miss happy."

She seemed to be convinced that this matter was caused by Bai Shi or Shao Xiuxue in the middle.
