After the Republic of China

The Mai family is quite famous in Qingdao. Mrs. Mai is satisfied with her eldest son and does not think too highly of herself.

In this way, she thought, if her family wanted to get married, the Lu family would not reject it, and it would be well-founded.

The two families were already close relatives, but now that the head of the Mai family and his wife are determined to get married, the atmosphere of the dinner couldn't be better.

Even Mai Hui, who was usually not very verbose with his juniors, actually asked Shao Yunshi a few questions very kindly.

Shao Yunshi had seen big scenes, and was not afraid of the serious and rigid Mai Hui, so she only replied politely.

Her calm and untimid look made Mai Hui and his wife even more satisfied. This is what the eldest daughter-in-law of the head of the family looks like.

Second sister-in-law Mai was also filled with joy when she saw it.She felt that if she could help marry the Lu family, her eldest brother might be satisfied with her and her husband, right?

Others don't know what the Mai family is thinking.

The Lu family didn't find it strange that they were so polite to the Mai family. After all, Hiding Aunt was the most important thing in their hearts. The reason why the Mai family was like this must be because Hiding Auntie had just arrived.

When an old man is present at lunch, it becomes less noisy.

Mr. Lu and his wife probably noticed this, and as soon as they finished their meal, they proposed to go home first and let the children do as they pleased.

Shao Yunshi didn't like liveliness, and there were strangers and relatives at the table, so she quickly said she wanted to go home to be with the old man.

As soon as she asked to leave, Mrs. Lu didn't want to stay, but Mrs. Mai wanted to talk to Mr. Lu about the children, so she forced her to stay.

Da Wen is not used to crowds of people making noise, and he will leave when his sister leaves. Xiao Wu is simply there where his sister and brother are.

In this way, in addition to the entire Mai family, the people left behind also included the Lu family and his wife.

After sending the people away, Mrs. Mai saw that it was inappropriate to leave her son alone, so she said to her second son, "I'm afraid your eldest brother is caught up in something. How about you go back by yourself?"

Mai Qinghe didn't look calm at all. At this moment, his mind was still filled with Shao Yunshi's smile. How could there be such a beautiful woman in the world?It was not comparable to the people he knew. It was as if she was a goddess conceived in a pile of books.

He was distracted and naturally didn't hear what his mother said clearly.

On the other hand, Second Sister-in-law Mai glanced at the second nephew in a funny way, put her ear in Sister-in-law Mai's ear, and whispered: "Qinghe is probably dumbfounded by Miss Shao."

ah?Mrs. Mai was taken aback and quickly looked at her son. Seeing that her son still looked depressed, she said in disbelief: "Isn't he still like this?"

Mai Er's sister-in-law tugged her lips helplessly, and she didn't know how to express her sister-in-law's eyesight.

Sister-in-law Mai didn't pay attention to the expressions of her younger siblings. She just sighed and said: "Both of these brothers have such boring temperaments, and I don't know who they follow. The eldest brother is better, and his social interactions are okay. When I get to the second brother, I will come directly to you." He keeps silent about everything."

Sister-in-law Mai's words made Second Sister-in-law Mai curl her lips. She didn't have to think about her temperament, so of course she followed her eldest brother.

However, Mrs. Mai didn't dare to say this. The eldest brother in the family was dogmatic and loved to teach others, so it would be hard to be caught by him.

Second sister-in-law Mai didn't dare to accept this, so she pushed Mai Qinghe, pointed at his mother and said, "Qinghe, your mother asked you to go back first."

Being pushed by his second aunt, Mai Qinghe woke up completely. Unconsciously, his face turned red and he nodded: "Okay, I'll go back first."

The 17-year-old boy's voice is still a little hoarse.

As soon as the younger son made a sound, Sister-in-law Mai also noticed something different. She looked at each other with her siblings, then nodded and told her son to leave first.

Mai Qinghe was a man of etiquette. Although he felt a little strange about his mother's behavior, he still bid farewell to Mr. and Mrs. Lu honestly.

When Lu Liushun saw that he was leaving, he didn't say anything. He only kindly asked him to come back home to play.

Mr. Lu also sent an invitation along the way.Being invited, if this was the case normally, Mai Qing and Ding would respond calmly.

But today, he had something on his mind, and his face was a bit eager. However, he was still young, and he was a little blushing.

His awkward look made people look weird.

The slightly embarrassed back of the young man added a bit of life to the dark building for no reason.

Mrs. Lu looked at Mai Qinghe who was walking away and said strangely: "What's wrong with this child today? He looks so awkward."

Her voice was not loud, so Lu Liushun, who was accompanying her, only listened.

As soon as Lu's words came to Lu Liushun's ears, he asked someone smart to write them down.He couldn't say much in front of others, so he pressed his wife's hand and continued talking and laughing with the Mai brothers.

The Lu family who left first didn't really go home. Mr. Lu was in high spirits today and took the children directly to the theater and teahouse to listen to plays, books and vaudeville.

Shao Yunshi is not opposed to these activities. She doesn't like to make noise, but she doesn't like the large number of relatives and friends gathering together to laugh.

It just so happened that Ximei still liked to see these things. Shao Yunshi glanced at Ximei with a happy face and felt a little happy in her heart.

The two boys were also very interested. When watching the juggling, they wished they could leave the private room and join the others in shouting and rewarding.

Shao Yunshi felt that it was different from the liveliness of Shanghai and the modernity of Suzhou and Yangzhou. She sighed in her heart. It was really good to go out and walk more.

This time, the young and old of the Lu family played until dusk before leaving the theater.

Mrs. Lu actually didn't complain about her headache anymore.

When he went out to wait for the bus, Mr. Lu looked at his wife with a smile and asked, "Are you okay?"

Shao Yunshi was supporting the old lady and asked, "Grandma, are you feeling unwell?"

The girl was considerate. Mrs. Lu patted her granddaughter's hand approvingly and said, "No, I used to make a lot of noise when I went out. My head always hurts, but I don't have it now. Maybe I am happy to see my child."

Mr. Lu glanced at his old wife who looked really good, nodded in agreement and said, "I'm afraid I'm really happy."

Just as he was talking, the car came.

Shao Yunshi hurriedly greeted the two younger brothers to get on the bus, and Caihua and Ximei naturally followed the old man's entourage and took another car.

After getting in the car, Shao Yunshi always felt that someone was looking at her. She turned around and looked around, but there was none. It was very strange. Her five senses were very good.

Xiao Wu was sitting next to Shao Yunshi. When he saw his sister looking around, he thought she hadn't seen enough, and immediately promised: "There are also jugglers on the street. I will take my sister out to watch later."

In a moment of excitement, Xiao Wu revealed that he had sneaked out.

After playing for a day, Da Wen also showed his true nature as a young boy. He did not stop his brother from talking nonsense, but nodded and said: "There is also a peep show to watch."

Interrupted by his two younger brothers, Shao Yunshi put aside the weird idea in his mind and listened lively to Da Wen and Xiao Wu's criticism of what he was watching today.

Not to mention, it seemed that these two boys often went to the theater, and what they said was so eloquent that even the old man couldn't help but praise them.

After all, Shao Yunshi was a considerate little cotton-padded jacket. While talking, she saw her grandmother frowning slightly. Knowing that she was really tired today, she motioned to her two brothers to keep their voices down.

Dawen and Xiaowu were also good and obedient children. When they saw him, they quickly lowered their voices. (End of chapter)
