After the Republic of China

After the two pairs of children left, the Lu family suddenly calmed down.

The ones who are least used to it are Dawen and Xiaowu.

The moment they waved goodbye on the pier was firmly engraved in the hearts of the children, and made them determined to study well and learn skills at a young age, so that they can come and go freely without the supervision of adults in the future.

After sending her daughter away, Ms. Lu was particularly decadent.

Not to mention the women and children, even Lu Liushun, who was so busy all day long, was ignored.

Of course, although Mr. Lu and his wife had long been accustomed to being idle, they still felt deserted.

The atmosphere in the Lu family has always been gloomy, and even the servants don't dare to talk too much.

In the evening, Lu Liushun came back and felt heartbroken when he saw his wife's lack of energy.

Holding his wife in his arms, he comforted him: "It's not like I won't come back if I leave. I'll just send someone to pick her up during the winter vacation."

Mrs. Lu was still thinking about what she had said to her daughter on the dock, so she said angrily: "It's the Chinese New Year, so I can't go back to Yangzhou without telling my aunt."

After saying that, she continued: "Gu Gu said that she bought two properties in Shanghai and wanted me to live in Shanghai for a while. What do you think?"

Lu Liushun also knew about Higu's stay in Shanghai. He thought about it and said, "Of course I will go if I have the opportunity. By the way, we are also buying a house in Shanghai. If we run into the Shao family in Shanghai, everyone will be embarrassed."

Madam Lu was not worried about money, she just hesitated and said, "Will this make Aunt Hidden feel bad?"

Lu Liushun said with a smile: "Don't you know what kind of child Higu is? This child is so sensible that it's shameful that she won't have any grudges. Besides, our family really should buy a house in Shanghai. The situation in Qingdao It’s getting harder and harder to do.”

As soon as her husband mentioned what was going on outside, Mrs. Lu immediately became worried, "But Boss Jin hasn't let go yet?"

Lu Liushun frowned and said, "This is not Boss Jin's business, nor is it our family's business. Don't worry, it's still early."

Mr. Lu didn't understand foreign affairs, so after hearing this, he could only let it go.

Several people who were worried about their families in Qingdao were also sad.

Shao Yunshi was the most reluctant to leave. He stood on the bow of the ship for a long time and refused to leave.

Luo Congbai protected the person in his arms and whispered: "Don't be sad, we can see you again in the future."

Shao Yunshi smiled and shook her head, "I just don't want to see my brothers sad."

Luo Congbai also saw the appearance of his brothers-in-law and sighed: "Dawen and Xiaowu are really good kids. It would be great if they can really be with you. I can feel more at ease."

This was still a joke that Shao Yunshi made with his brothers.

Seeing Luo Congbai solemnly bringing it up, Shao Yunshi was surprised and said: "You are serious about it? How can any child leave his parents?"

Seeing that she was distracted, Luo Congbai followed, "What's the point? It's better for boys to become independent earlier. Besides, I traveled around with my master when I was seven or eight years old."

Shao Yunshi glanced at someone helplessly and pouted: "You can't help it, right? Dawen and Xiaowu have good teachers and schools, so it's impossible for them to leave home and go to my place."

Seeing her cute expression, Luo Congbai couldn't help but feel happy. He stretched out his hand and touched Shao Yunshi's soft hair, sighing: "Gu Gu, you seem to have grown a lot."

The words passed too quickly, but they were talking casually.

Then, Shao Yunshi didn't care and was a little happy, "Really, no wonder Sister Lingzhu said she was a little afraid to stand with me."

Luo Congbai said with a smile: "Lingzhu is not short either. What can she do to dare not stand with you?" "Aren't I afraid of being outdone by my hidden aunt?" Lingzhu walked out of the room with a smile. .

Seeing Lingzhu and Chang Shanchun coming out together, Shao Yunshi backed away a little embarrassedly. After all, the two of them were too close to each other and it was not good for others to see them.

In front of outsiders, Luo Congbai also cooperated and followed Shao Yun's poems.

Chang Shanchun had sharp eyes and raised his eyebrows in a funny way.

Luo Congbai was thick-skinned now, and said to Chang Shanchun casually: "But we have agreed with them, when will we have a banquet?"

The ship they took this time was arranged by Chang Shanchun's friend. Originally, his friend was going to go together, but because of something unexpected, he arranged them on a ship elsewhere.

In this way, they gathered together to treat each other and say thank you.

They are all young people. Chang Shanchun lost the restraint he had when he was at the Lu family and said directly: "They are very busy. They said that we can get together when we get to the field."

Luo Congbai knew that the other party's words were just modesty, so he didn't say much more. After all, Chang Shanchun owed the favor, and he couldn't overstep it.

After hearing this, Lingzhu suggested: "How about we send some food?"

Shao Yunshi thought about it and said, "Mom has stuffed us with a lot of Qingdao special snacks, as well as dried abalone, sea cucumbers and the like. Let's send some as well."

Abalone and sea cucumbers are good things. Giving these is a face-saving gift and is a sign of friendship.

Mentioning this, Lingzhu sighed: "No, my godmother made such a big bag of food for us, and I don't know how long it will take to finish it. Don't go back and spoil it. It would be a pity."

Shao Yunshi laughed, "When you give us these specialties, you don't just give them to us for our own consumption. You also have to give them to your brother-in-law and the wood. I'm afraid these are not enough. You're better off, but you're afraid they'll get damaged."

After hearing this, Chang Shanchun couldn't help but sigh to himself, his wife is still practicing some cultivation, after all, her sister-in-law is from a family background and understands all aspects of communication.

Lingzhu didn't feel her own shortcomings, but said in surprise: "Hey, my godmother didn't explain it either. But if we give it away, we really don't have to worry about running out of food."

Chang Shanchun saw that her pretty face was slightly red, and her energy and spirit had generally returned to its former glory, so he did not lament that his daughter-in-law was not as good as his sister-in-law.

He stepped forward directly and took her hand, "Yes, you don't have to talk about waste."

When her fiancé suddenly held her hand, Ling Zhu was happy and embarrassed at the same time. She said awkwardly: "Stop making trouble, let your sister and brother-in-law watch the joke."

Luo Congbai was a man among men, and everyone was very familiar with him at this time, so he directly interjected: "We didn't see anything."

After saying that, he deliberately hid Shao Yunshi beside him behind him.

Being interrupted like this, Lingzhu was no longer ashamed, and said with a blushing face: "Hurry in, it's very windy and wild outside."

Luo Congbai also wanted to ask Shao Yunshi to go in, so he followed Ling Zhu's words and pulled Shao Yunshi into the cabin with Ling Zhu and the others.

Although this ship is not a passenger ship, it does have a lot of first-class rooms. Lingzhu and the others live in such rooms.

Ximei and Cai Xin had already helped everyone clean up the room. When they saw them coming in together, they hurriedly served them tea.

Lingzhu saw Ximei busy and said in an embarrassed tone: "You're tired, please sit down and have a rest."

Ximei didn't think it was anything, and said straightforwardly: "Why are you tired? I'm used to doing these things. Besides, it's just some simple luggage, it's not heavy."

After saying that, she pointed at Cai Xin, who was hiding shyly, and said, "Cai Xin also helped, this girl is really capable."
