After the Republic of China

In front of the window sill with mottled sunlight, a small pot of bougainvillea bloomed just right.

When Ximei mentioned Miss Lin, she jumped for joy, which affected Shao Yunshi who was watching the flowers.

Then, Shao Yunshi smiled and narrowed her eyes, nodded and said: "Well, she also came back during the vacation."

Since the young lady was injured and Yan Cuiling returned home from the hospital, Ximei no longer wants to stay in Shanghai.

Seeing this, she hurriedly said: "It's rare for Miss Lin to come back. Otherwise, Miss Wang's appointment has been pushed back?"

She is now taboo on Wang Ping.

Shao Yunshi saw her now in a panic, and said helplessly: "How long will you continue to be afraid? It's been a few days since that incident. Besides, as long as I don't come back late in the future, nothing like this will happen."

Although she wanted to say that the security in the Shanghai Concession was still very good, after all, it was under the control of foreigners, so she swallowed her words.

Ximei also feels that she has been a little nervous recently, but whenever she thinks of the injury that the young lady suffered that day, she becomes afraid unconsciously.

Seeing the young lady looking over worriedly, Ximei cheered up and promised: "Miss, don't worry, I'm much better now, and I won't be exposed when I go back."

Shao Yunshi gave Ximei and the other three strict orders about the last time they were in danger. No one was allowed to mention it again, let alone let anyone know about it.

This is not only for the sake of her own ears, but also for the benefit of the three of them.If the guard is not good enough, the punishment will be severe.

Ximei also knew this, so she was grateful for the kindness of the young lady, and for the sake of Brother Feihong and Xiaodong, she secretly made up her mind not to bring trouble to others in the future.

Seeing that she was quite knowledgeable, even though she misunderstood her meaning, Shao Yunshi did not intend to explain.

After a soft 'hmm', she said: "The Wang family is holding a party this time. It doesn't matter who goes there. Brother Wang Ping, who is a single family, specially sent me an invitation, so I knew it was hard to refuse, otherwise people would be murmuring in their hearts. .”

In fact, Shao Yun Shiben didn't want to attend the Wang family's gathering. He also knew that most of the Wang family's gatherings were attended by knowledgeable people who claimed to be members of the upper class.

Most of these people think very highly of themselves. If they die, they will probably suffer the consequences.

Ximei didn't know these reasons, so she just wondered: "What are you talking about? Why? Does the young lady still have to go?"

"You idiot, how come you have studied for so long and still don't know the ways of the world." Xiaodong happened to run in all the way.

Ximei stared unconvinced, "Tell me, why?" Just after she finished speaking, she saw a few golden melons in her hand, and couldn't help but curious: "Where did you get these?"

Xiaodong was very happy today. He was holding the golden melon and said happily: "This is just picked by the farmers in the field. It's very fresh."

Ximei was also happy to hear this, but she knew how tricky the young lady was, and she would not eat stale food no matter how much she liked it.

Looking at the crispy melons with curiosity, she said hurriedly: "I'm going to wash a few."

Shao Yunshi stopped her and asked Xiaodong, "How many did you buy in total?"

Xiaodong wondered: "There are a lot of mature fields, but there are people waiting there to round them up. Brother Feihong and I talked it over, and they just gave us a few."

When she heard that she only got a few melons, Ximei suddenly became stingy and said directly: "Send two of them to the kitchen, and put the rest directly in the ice basin in the small living room to cool down."

"Are you going to eat or not?" Xiaodong was actually a little greedy.

Ximei glanced at the young lady and gritted her teeth and said, "Then wash one and taste it first, and eat the rest after it has cooled. It will taste better." Ximei has always arranged these little things.

So, Shao Yunshi didn't care, and Xiaodong didn't say much. He just put down the melon and let Ximei deal with it.

When Ximei had prepared the melon and brought it to her, Shao Yunshi just asked, "Can I give it to Brother Feihong?" ’ Seeing Ximei nodding, she stopped talking.

After eating the melon, Xiaodong had the opportunity to talk about what he had said before and asked: "I heard what senior sister said earlier, did you not want to go to the banquet?"

Shao Yunshi was a little annoyed by such a banquet, but she still knew about the exchange of favors.Moreover, when she heard that the Wang family was hosting a banquet, her cousin and aunt specifically told her to get along well with her, which showed that the Wang family's banquet was considered a difficult place to enter.

Although she didn't care much, she was invited, and her cousin and the others made a point of explaining it.Besides, there is another layer of meaning here, and you still have to go.

Then, Shao Yunshi waved his hand lightly and said: "No, I will go as usual tomorrow."

"Then what happened just now?..." Xiaodong was a little strange.

Seeing Xiaodong asking again, Ximei also looked indifferent, so she helped explain: "You just received a letter from Master Yan Biao, saying that Miss Lin has returned to Suzhou."

"Ah, Miss Lin is back, senior sister should be happy now." Xiaodong knew that Miss Lin and Miss Lin had only had a small friendship.

Then, she immediately stopped asking what happened just now and was only concerned about Miss Lin's coming to Suzhou.

Speaking of Lin Yin, Shao Yunshi also looked happy and said: "We will go to the banquet tomorrow, and we will leave early in the morning. Let's ask Brother Feihong to book the train tickets quickly."

Xiaodong hurriedly responded.

After hearing this, Ximei still persisted in persuading: "Miss, do you have to go to the Wang family?" Ximei was very frightened that the young lady was about to join Miss Wang.

Seeing that she was still not enlightened, Xiaodong glanced at her and said, "Last time, Miss Wang accepted the favor from senior sister. Miss Wang herself didn't care, but Miss Wang's brother couldn't help but care. He This is just to return a favor, you idiot."

"Return a favor?" It’s up to them.”

This is true, but others may not think so.

"In this world, it's hard to owe favors." Xiaodong sighed: "The Wang family is considered to be a well-known family, so they invited my senior sister to give us the opportunity to make connections. It was a return of favor, so that something big happens to my senior sister in the future. They are in a dilemma of whether to reach out or not.”

Ximei didn't want to say anything more, she just drooped her head and sighed.

In fact, Xiaodong's analysis of the situation was correct, but Wang Teng's thoughts were not like this. He was really grateful to Shao Yunshi, and he was not afraid that people would come to him for help in the future.

In one place, Shao Yunshi's family background is not bad.You know, her little uncle Jiang Zhekai's ability alone cannot be underestimated.

Therefore, what Xiaodong just said was actually a bit belittling.

Shao Yunshi looked at Xiaodong's analysis with a smile. After she finished speaking, she shook her head and said: "Xiaodong is right, but not right. Brother Wang may not have invited me just to repay the favor. Maybe they really think I am a good person. That's why Give me some support."

As for whether others also felt that they had something worthy of friendship, Shao Yunshi didn't want to think too much about it.

Ximei somewhat disagreed with the young lady's words, and snorted: "Isn't it our family's fault? Our old man is a celebrity in Yangzhou, and even cousin Yan is also a big businessman with a lot of money."

She didn't mention the Lu family and the Jiang family. The Lu family was too far away, and Mr. Jiang was just a soldier, so she had no idea about it.
