After the Republic of China

There were so many people sitting in the spacious hall that it suddenly became full.

With a sincere expression, the girl dragged the tray and was considerate.

However, not only Master Jifang himself was surprised by Shao Yunshi's gift-giving behavior, but others in the room were also very surprised.

After all, this is an engagement gift, and it is enough to give the groom a gift from his elders. Where else can I give a matchmaker gift?

Mr. Shao protects his eldest granddaughter the most.

Seeing that Master Jifang was a little dumbfounded, he was afraid that his eldest granddaughter would be embarrassed, so he hurriedly said, "Master, please take it quickly. My granddaughter usually doesn't do anything. Once she takes a liking to her, she will give it away. She is not taking it lightly." thing."

When he shouted, Master Jifang came back to his senses, took the book from Shao Yunshi, and thanked him with a smile: "Thank you, Auntie Hidden."

After saying that, he lowered his head and took a closer look at the book in his hand, feeling extremely happy.

Looking at this book, Master Jifang really wanted to refuse, but he couldn't.

He looked at Shao Yunshi with some surprise and asked: "Is this the "Essentials of the Classics" handed down from the Tang Dynasty?"

Shao Yunshi nodded and said: "Well, it is indeed true. I have been reading it for many years, and I think it is most appropriate to give it to you."

Buddhism was most popular in the Tang Dynasty, and many Buddhist scriptures were the most comprehensive. Unfortunately, after the change of dynasties, not many remained.

Master Jifang was really happy when he held this "Essentials of the Sutra".

When Mr. Shao saw Master Jifang being so happy, he felt proud. His family was very good at hiding things from his aunt, and he could win people's hearts no matter what he did.

If you give it to an outsider, your grandfather must also give it as a gift.

No, before Mr. Shao was overjoyed, there was an extra word on his hand.

The old man took a closer look and realized that it was the calligraphy of Zhao Mengfu from the Yuan Dynasty.

At this moment, he no longer had time to ponder Master Jifang's book, and directly read the words on his hand.

Everyone in the room received gifts, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Uncle Luo and his wife. They were really shocked by Shao Yunshi's exquisite needlework. They deeply felt that their son was not worthy of other girls, and they were afraid that the old man would regret it on the spot.

Seeing that the old man's attention was attracted by calligraphy and painting, although they thought that scholars are strange, and one word in a book is enough for a long time, they were still very relieved.

After all, Master Jifang was more reserved. After reading the scriptures, he put them down.

Knowing that the grandfather and grandson still had something to say, he began to say to Luo Congbai, "Cong Bai, go out for a walk with your uncle."

Luo Congbai had not yet met his master in private. He still wanted to know the specific information about his master, so he glanced at Shao Yunshi.

Seeing him like this in public made Shao Yunshi speechless. He quickly calmed down and nodded to express that he was fine.

The elders did not think that Luo Congbai was afraid of his wife, and were very happy. He still remembered that his wife was here and that he was a good husband.

Seeing that they all had something to do, Uncle Luo started to lead his wife to say goodbye. They had to put away the gifts first.

Luo Congbai didn't take Master Jifang on a long trip, but just invited him to walk in the backyard garden.

When Mr. Shao saw that everyone was gone, he waved his hand to Ximei and said, "I don't need you to serve me here anymore. Go down and keep an eye on her."

Ximei bowed down without looking at Shao Yunshi after receiving the order.

Seeing her grandfather like this, Shao Yunshi calmed down, stood up, poured the old man a cup of hot tea, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, this tea is your favorite oolong tea."

Mr. Shao was relieved when he saw his granddaughter's face softened and knew that she was not worried about this matter today. You know, the engagement banquet was just simple, and he was the only one in the family, but it was a little unreasonable.

An An sighed, he took the tea cup, took a sip, and praised: "Not bad, the tea is good and the water is good."

After being praised, Shao Yunshi's eyes were full of smiles.

We are not here to drink tea today. Mr. Shao did not continue to say anything. He directly took out an object and handed it to Shao Yunshi, "This is an engagement gift from your old aunt."

"Ah?" Shao Yunshi didn't expect that the old aunt would give a gift.

Shao Yunshi had an affair with her old aunt, or Xiaodong specially sent a letter back to Suzhou. At that time, the old aunt didn't mention the gift.

Seeing Shao Yunshi's strange look, Mr. Shao said, "Let's open it first and take a look."

The blue velvet wrapper, as soon as Shao Yunshi got it, she knew that this thing must be the old aunt's favorite thing, and she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

In the end, she got engaged and failed to attend to the presence of her old aunt.

Mr. Shao looked at his granddaughter in surprise, "Why, do you know what it is?"

Shao Yunshi nodded and said: "Yes, I know, it is a dowry gift from my old aunt. There is a pair of hollow gold and jade hairpins."

Mr. Shao took the hairpin from Shao Yunshi's hand, looked at it nostalgically, and nodded: "Indeed, this hairpin is old. It was a dowry gift from your great-grandmother. It has always been passed down from female to male. .”

"Ah, it's so expensive, no wonder I never see my old aunt wearing it." Shao Yunshi picked up the remaining one and looked at it carefully.

Not to mention, her eyes, which have seen a lot of good things, can also see the special features of the hairpin.

Sure enough, Mr. Shao pointed to a protrusion on the hairpin and said to Shao Yunshi: "It can be unscrewed here." As he spoke, he started to unscrew it.

Might as well, there's still something in there.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and Shao Yunshi also unscrewed one in his hand.

"Is there something too?" Mr. Shao asked.

Shao Yunshi took out the paper inside and nodded: "Well, it's probably a bank note or something."

When she was staying in Suzhou earlier, the old aunt wanted to give her money, but Shao Yunshi refused, so she gave up. Unexpectedly, the old aunt actually gave it in this way.

Mr. Shao also took out the thing from the hairpin in his hand, which was also a piece of paper. When he opened it, he saw that it was a land deed.

Shao Yunshi looked at the thing in her grandfather's hand strangely and whispered: "Isn't Huaiyuan owned by the Shao family?"

Mr. Shao shook his head sadly and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Of course it belongs to the Shao family. It's just that when your grandpa passed away, I was afraid that your grandma wouldn't be able to think about it, so I gave her the deed of this Sophora Garden. I didn't expect that she would Sent back again."

Shao Yunshi asked strangely: "Then what did grandpa say before that he would give me the Sophora Garden?"

Mr. Shao smiled and nodded his granddaughter's forehead, "You are just a little person. Although I gave the Sophora Garden to your aunt, I can still be her master."

"Ah, grandpa, you actually want to get back the things you gave away with your old aunt." Shao Yunshi was really surprised.

Mr. Shao really laughed at this moment, "Don't you think grandpa is just a robber? I knew your aunt would be willing to give it to you, so that's why I guaranteed it. Besides, would I ask for your aunt's things for nothing?" "

This is true, Shao Yunshi smiled sheepishly.

Mr. Shao said to her angrily: "Look, what do you have in your hand? Your old aunt is a rich man, and the things she gives must not be simple."
