After the Republic of China

The Mai family's bedroom is spacious and airy in summer.

Just because the room was big, Mrs. Mai's sigh echoed for a long time in this summer night, making people irritated.

Mai Hui frowned slightly and looked at his wife in surprise, "Didn't you say in the past that no one is worthy of our son? What's wrong now?"

These words made Mrs. Mai's face flash with discomfort, "Isn't it that Miss Shao is so outstanding? Among the ladies we met earlier, none of them can compare to Miss Shao."

After hearing this, Mai Hui nodded in agreement, but said, "Don't think too highly of Miss Shao. In terms of family background, we are not bad. The Shao family can only be regarded as noble, and they can't stand up in this troubled world. "

Mai Hui's words were a bit exaggerated. The Shao family's strength lies in their purity. In these troubled times, it's good that you have money, but connections are actually the most important.Besides, Son-in-law Jiang has quite a lot of energy.

Sister-in-law Mai didn't bother with the Shao family, she just frowned and said, "The Shao family is noble and has status, and the Lu family is rich. Miss Shao really has everything she needs."

Mai Hui didn't know where the confidence came from, and sneered: "That's the bad thing. I guess Miss Shao is too high-ranking to be too low-ranking now, right? Otherwise, the Shao family would not agree to her coming to Qingdao."

Not to mention, Mrs. Yan really had this consideration in agreeing to Shao Yunshi coming to Qingdao.

Sister-in-law Mai hasn't been able to get any news from Mrs. Lu today, so she couldn't help but said: "You mean, Miss Shao came to Qingdao to meet her?"

"I guess, I heard Liushun mentioning Miss Shao by chance earlier, and I know she hasn't been engaged yet." Mai Hui said matter-of-factly: "I'm afraid this is the reason why she came to Qingdao this time, otherwise what would she be doing here in the hot weather? ?”

After gaining true trust, Sister-in-law Mai felt a little more at ease. She tested Mr. Lu several times but failed to win her trust. She still thought that his child had a coincidence.

However, thinking about it this way, she felt a little uncomfortable, "Since I came to see you, why didn't my cousin answer my questions several times? Could it be that her family already has plans?"

After all, they were real relatives, and Mrs. Mai didn't say anything inappropriate.

Mai Hui treated the Lu family as a serious relative, and Mr. Lu treated him like a close nephew.Therefore, he was not unhappy after hearing what his wife said.

He thought for a while and said: "My cousin is cautious. You asked this in the hotel and didn't tell her directly. Naturally, she wouldn't talk too much. Okay, I'll talk to Liushun in person later."

Hearing what her husband said, Mrs. Mai breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and said worriedly: "Ms. Shao's conditions are good, but I wonder if she can make it?"

Seeing that his wife was still talking about this back and forth, Mai Hui said impatiently: "Don't think too much, Miss Shao's identity is actually embarrassing. It is also a good thing for her to rely on the Lu family, and it will be even better if she marries into our family. She is lucky.”

He was so angry that if the Lu family knew about it, they would definitely fall out.In their hearts, Shao Yun's poems are as good as pearls and treasures, and there is no way they can be disliked by others.

After hearing this, Mrs. Mai thought of her cousin Heli's identity and had nothing to say.Normally, Miss Shao would really be picked on. After all, having a harmonious mother would be dishonorable.

She finally understood why her husband was so determined, and nodded: "If this is the case, it will really give the Lu family face if we come forward to discuss the marriage. Of course, I will be good to the child."

There was no need to say this anymore, and the confident couple relaxed their minds.

After waiting for her husband to lie down, Mrs. Mai sighed: "I don't know what happened to Qingping. Such a good opportunity today was wasted."

Mai Hui was a little tired and said dissatisfiedly: "Okay, the child is old and something will happen of course. Don't worry about it, just go to sleep."

Mrs. Mai thought about it, so she suppressed her thoughts and fell asleep.

The couple felt at ease now, but it was a pity that Mai Qingping could not make them feel at ease for long.

Because Mai Qingping has not gone home since the party with the Lu family that day.

If they want to talk about getting married, the Mai family can only put it down for the time being.

There was no follow-up from the Mai family, so Lu didn't worry about the matter anymore, and didn't even say anything to her husband and parents.However, Shao Yunshi can always receive things from the Mai family.

One day, afternoon.

"Miss, Mrs. Mai's wife has sent something again." Ximei replied as she helped Shao Yunshi get up.

Shao Yunshi said with some embarrassment: "This is too frequent. I wonder if my mother will return the favor?"

To be honest, Shao Yunshi doesn't like accepting gifts from others.

Ximei has a lot of affection for the Lu family. When she heard this, she hurriedly said: "Didn't Madam say you don't need to worry about this? Miss, just keep it."

The afternoon heat was still a bit suffocating.

After hearing Ximei's words, Shao Yunshi waved her hands a little irritably.

In fact, Ximei also felt that Mrs. Mai's wife was too strange. No matter how close relatives she was, she couldn't send things so frequently. How could she feel at ease?

However, she didn't want the young lady to worry about others, so she still advised her: "Don't worry about it, young lady. After all, the gift is not something extraordinary. Madam can afford it."

When Ximei was in the Lu family, what she saw most were all kinds of fabric jewelry and all kinds of imported goods, which were so exquisite and gorgeous that it made people dizzy.Nowadays, her vision is considered to be very high.

Shao Yunshi laughed secretly when she saw how grand her words were.

Thinking that she didn't have to worry about having her mother take care of things, Shao Yunshi put aside her worries and asked, "Is it all kinds of fabric jewelry this time?"

Ximei shook her head and said, "No, this time it's fruits, oh, and books."

After hearing this, Ximei said that the Mai family only gave some fruits and books, which should be of reasonable value. Shao Yunshi sighed and thought to herself that the gifts were finally different.

Seeing that the young lady no longer frowned, Ximei boldly asked: "Miss, Xiaodong and the others are really not coming?"

This time Shao Yunshi came to Qingdao without any bodyguards. Ximei was actually a little worried.

Shao Yunshi knew that Ximei actually didn't want to ask this question, so she asked, "Are you homesick?"

Ximei said honestly: "Well, living here is indeed good, but I just miss home. I think Suzhou is more stable."

Shao Yunshi actually misses her home in Suzhou, but in the future, Suzhou will no longer be her home.

Then, she sighed, "Ximei, you are old now, it's time to think about your own affairs."

We were talking about Xiaodong, why did we talk about her?Ximei was startled and said hurriedly: "I won't talk any more. You can stay here as long as you like."

Seeing that Ximei was very frightened, Shao Yunshi couldn't help but said happily: "You, I really think about you. Now you are eighteen."

"Eighteen is nothing. The lady is not in a hurry yet. I don't have that intention. Besides, I will not leave the lady." Seeing that the lady had no intention of blaming her, Ximei breathed out secretly.

Shao Yunshi thought about the fact that in this day and age, some women also get married late, so she stopped urging her and just said, "As long as you know what's going on."

Seeing that the young lady relented, Ximei quickly said cheerfully: "I know all about it, young lady, don't worry."
