After the Republic of China

In late summer, the nights are already cool.

Shao Yunshi's closing of the window was not abrupt, nor did she feel guilty.

The master and servant were talking, and Ximei came in close to the light, rubbing her eyes and muttering, "Why did I fall asleep just sitting there?"

How could Shao Yunshi accept her words? She just pretended that she had poor hearing and got away with it.

Ximei was a little confused and didn't pay much attention.

Entering the inner room, she saw that the lady was really closing the window. She hurriedly took a few steps closer, took over the work, and murmured strangely, "It's not cold in the room, why should I close the window?"

Shao Yunshi naturally heard her murmur and directly interrupted: "It's getting late now, let's take a shower."

After hearing this, Ximei looked at the moon outside and saw that it was indeed getting late, so she nodded and said, "That's right. If the old man comes early tomorrow, it will be bad if the young lady wakes up late."

After saying that, she glanced at the needlework on the table and said somewhat sadly: "How many more things have you not done, Miss? Alas, it's all my fault for being clumsy."

Ximei's needlework is mediocre compared to Shao Yunshi's, and her knot-tying skills are even less impressive.

Shao Yunshi naturally didn't dare to ask her to give a gift to her future parents-in-law.

Seeing that Ximei was worried, Shao Yunshi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, it's all done. With the nanny's skill, what are you afraid of?"

"Yes, Miao's mother is a very fast worker. With her help, we can definitely do it. But, miss, what are these?" Ximei curiously picked up the unfinished needlework on the table.

Seeing that the men's socks were being picked up, Shao Yunshi didn't feel any blush, and said very generously: "Mumu said that socks and shoes are the most expensive for them over there, so I thought of rushing out a few pairs of socks for him first."

Ximei didn't feel bad either and quickly put it down.

"By the way, we need to make shoes, but I don't know whether to make cloth shoes or leather shoes? We still have to discuss with the wood." Shao Yunshi raised her head and looked out the window. It was indeed getting late.

After hearing this, Ximei suggested: "Just make a few pairs of cloth shoes and leather shoes. Besides, my uncle is going to Shanghai with us this time, so he needs to wear something more decent. I think there are more coats." It’s good to prepare a few sets.”

After hearing this, Shao Yunshi thought about it and nodded: "You're right. Let's get ready. We won't be wrong after all."

Ximei saw the tired look on her face and said hurriedly: "Miss, it's better to go to bed early. These things can't be done in a while."

Shao Yunshi was planning to go to bed, so she followed Ximei to the dressing room in the next room.

Luo Congbai, who was told by them, ran all the way home. He wanted to sneak back into his yard, but he was stopped by his father who was waiting for him.

The moonlight is very bright tonight, and the cold moonlight makes the expression on people's faces softer.

Luo Congbai felt relieved when he looked at his father like this.

Father Luo didn't know what his son was thinking. He knocked on the pipe pot, glanced at his son who was in a hurry, and said calmly: "Come in, your mother has already prepared the food."

Luo Congbai came back from work in the past with an empty stomach.

But today was different. He had a drink with the old man in the city. Although he was not full, when he returned to Shao Yunshi's place, he was very full.

After listening to his father's instructions, Luo Congbai did not dare to disobey, and followed his father into the house with his head hanging down.

Aunt Luo saw her son and hurriedly invited him to eat.

This is a habit she has developed over the years. Whenever her son comes back, he will definitely devour it so that he can talk properly.

Therefore, Aunt Luo only called her son to eat and did not talk about anything. Luo Congbai glanced at the food carefully prepared by his mother with some embarrassment, and said: "I drank some wine with Mr. Shao today, so I'm not hungry yet."

Aunt Luo saw the beauty on her son's face and believed it, and said hurriedly: "Drinking will definitely make you hungry. You'd better eat some. Don't wake up hungry at night."

It was hard for Luo Congbai to say that he had already met Aunt Aunt, let alone Aunt Aunt Aunt, who had already eaten enough.

Seeing his mother being so attentive, he really couldn't put it down, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet, pick up his rice bowl and eat half of the bowl, just to keep himself from being starved to death.

Uncle Luo saw that his son really couldn't eat anymore, so he stopped his wife and told her not to feed her son any more food.

After clearing the table, Uncle Luo stared at his son and asked, "What did Mr. Shao say?"

He was waiting for his son so late, firstly because he was afraid that his son would be hungry when he came back, and secondly because he was anxious to know what Mr. Shao meant.

Luo Congbai knew that his father was worried about this matter, so he hurriedly said: "The old man has decided to come tomorrow, and the place is in Gu Gu's village in Xiahewan."

Aunt Luo just wiped her hands and came in. After hearing this, she clapped her hands and sighed: "That's good. I was worried about what to wear when I go to the city to meet the old lady."

After all, Aunt Luo is a woman and doesn't think too much, so she is mostly happy about the marriage and less worried.

Aunt Luo's warmth strangely calmed down Luo Congbai's anxious heart.

Uncle Luo also laughed a little when he saw his wife saying this, and thought to himself, she is a girl after all, she only remembers what is in front of her eyes.

Then, he ignored her and just asked his son, "How many people are coming tomorrow? What are we going to do at home?"

Luo Congbai glanced at his father with some embarrassment, "Only the old man is here. No, my uncle is here too."

"Master Jifang can come?" Aunt Luo, who was a little unhappy, immediately changed her subject.

Luo Congbai nodded secretly, Mr. Shao should handle matters safely. Although no one from the Shao family came forward, one Master Jifang could equal a room full of Shao family members.

Uncle Luo also smiled, "Then we have to give him a good reception tomorrow. Master Jifang doesn't leave the temple easily, and there are very few people who can invite him. You are the only one who gets the advantage."

"No, Master Jifang won't look at me as a nephew. Attending such a scene will probably not be the invitation of Mr. Shao." Luo Congbai agreed honestly.

Master Jifang came forward to let the Luo family know that Mr. Shao valued this engagement.

However, Aunt Luo was still a little worried, "If the female members of the Shao family don't come forward, how will we do the ceremony in the future?"

Luo Congbai thought for a while and said, "Mr. Shao is a sensible person. He will definitely explain this matter later. Mom, it's better not to worry about it."

How can I not worry? At this moment, Aunt Luo started to worry, "I have prepared a return gift. Although it is not valuable, the vegetables and fruits produced at home can still be used for the occasion."

She didn't blame Aunt Luo for being annoyed. She really didn't expect that Mr. Shao would be so low-key about his engagement.

If it weren't for the engagement ceremony with the Lu family in Qingdao, she would really have to think about it carefully. After all, no matter how good the aunt is, her son is not a fool.

Uncle Luo frowned and glanced at his wife, knowing that she was actually a little unhappy, so he stopped her and said, "Okay, stop nagging, there is a cellar at home, and the extra things can be put there without spoiling. "

Aunt Luo rolled her eyes at her husband angrily and said nothing.

When Luo Congbai saw that his mother was about to get angry, he didn't know what to say. He just hurriedly said: "I came back today and saw the Tian family's wedding boat. Does my mother know about this?"
