After the Republic of China

Chapter 757: Changes in People’s Hearts

Everyone knows which one is more comfortable to live in, the big villa in the town or the apartment in the city.

Shao Yunshi said that the city is also a good place for retirement. Although it sounds like that, everyone knows that the difference is huge.

However, when Ximei saw that the young lady no longer had a face, she became more lively and said, "No, that's not the case. My mother, father, and housekeeper Ding, Aunt Ding, live in that house now. It's enough."

"What are you talking about? Where are the helpers at home?" Shao Yunshi frowned.

Ximei sighed, "The old lady said that the houses in the city are not big and the population is small, so she sent some people away. Unfortunately, when I went back, I happened to help my mother clean up the lady's boudoir."

These words made Shao Yunshi even more worried, "Does my cousin know about this? There are few manpower. What should I do if there is not enough?"

Ximei shook her head, "I don't know, I probably know it. But don't worry, miss, your things have been moved to a new home."

Who cares about those things? Shao Yunshi stared at Ximei speechlessly.

Uncle Miao knew what the young lady was concerned about, so he answered, "The master knows about this, and it was he who suggested reducing the number of people."

This word? Shao Yunshi looked over strangely.

Uncle Miao sighed, "In today's world, the chaotic people's hearts have dispersed. It is right for me to reduce the number of people."

Is this because you are afraid of being a slave and bullying your master? Also, if the family moves to the city, the old aunt will really be the only one to be bullied.

but? Shao Yunshi frowned and said: "It's not all like this. We can't all lose weight. After all, the servants are all old. In this world, it's too difficult to live."

Her words made Uncle Miao feel very sad. He secretly sighed that the young lady was so kind, yet she was still thinking about the livelihood of her servants.

Seeing everyone's lonely expressions, Ximei hurriedly said: "Miss, don't worry, those who are sent away are those who are not useful, but those who can be used, I took some to Shanghai."

After hearing this, Shao Yunshi still frowned and said: "Everyone has moved to a new home, who will guard the old house? Although the garden is lost, the old house is also very important."

Ximei shook her head, "I don't know about that. Anyway, if the master is here, he will make arrangements. These days, the affairs of the old house and the garden are all negotiated by the master and the Yan family members."

Ximei's words made people feel inexplicably depressed, and the silence in the hall suddenly made people feel chilly.

Luo Congbai glanced at Shao Yunshi comfortingly. He knew what kind of existence the old aunt was to her aunt.

Shao Yunshi really didn't care too much. In a family, the man who heads the family naturally has the final say. She wouldn't think that her cousin treated the old aunt badly just because of this.

Uncle Miao knew better. Although he knew that the young lady was a good person and would not think too much about it, he still explained: "Miss, don't worry. I have left a few loyal people who have not left to guard the old house."

Shao Yunshi felt a lot more relieved after hearing this. She still has great feelings for the servants in Suzhou, which is her second home.

Ximei felt a little relieved when she saw the young lady smiling.

Suddenly, she slapped her head and said, "I almost forgot, Master Biao brought a letter to the young lady."

As she spoke, she took out the letter from her sleeve.

After receiving the letter from Ximei, Shao Yunshi did not open it immediately, but only asked: "Is Biaozi starting school too?"

"Well, Master Biao said he wanted to skip a grade as soon as possible so that he could go to Shanghai to study at university. He didn't have to ask the lady to forget about him." After Ximei finished speaking, she secretly glanced at Luo Congbai who was sitting beside her.

Seeing her sneaking around, Luo Congbai said angrily: "Biaozi and I communicated through a letter. Ximei, have you forgotten? The letter was brought by Xizi when he came here."

Um? By the way, this really happens. Ximei stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

Shao Yunshi saw that she had nothing to say to Ximei, so she said to Xiaodong: "Hurry up and take her to wash up. There is dust all the way." Xiaodong was good friends with Ximei, and he felt sorry for her suffering, so he got up and pulled her in.

Ximei is also a person who is used to being clean. She has reached the limit of what she can endure. She obeyed the young lady's instructions and hurriedly got up and left.

Seeing the two people in a panic, Shao Yunshi shouted hurriedly, "Xiaodong, get some medicinal oil and see where Ximei's skin has been rubbed. Apply medicine to her quickly, otherwise she will be in pain in the next day. "

Xiaodong replied directly and disappeared.

Shao Yunshi sighed helplessly. Seeing that Uncle Miao was very tired, he said, "I'd better ask Luo Cheng to serve Uncle Miao. I can't trust him to wash up alone."

Just as he was talking, Hero Ling arrived.

As soon as he heard this, he immediately said: "Don't call me Luo Cheng. If the lady trusts me, just hand over my old brother to me."

How could Shao Yunshi be worried about Ling Daxia and said hurriedly: "Then I'll help you."

Ling Daxia and Luo Congbai were both acquaintances and had a relatively good relationship with each other. Luo Congbai was relieved to have him take over for Old Miao Shu.

He made a decision directly, "I will help you take them to the house in the backyard, which has been sorted out by Uncle Miao a long time ago."

Uncle Lao Miao was originally a little worried about Miss Lai. He really didn't want to cause trouble to the young lady, and he was also afraid that he wouldn't get along with the people around the young lady and would upset the young lady.

Now it seemed that everyone was in good condition, and they had met each other in the past, so he became more natural and walked out with the help of Ling Daxia and Luo Congbai.

As soon as the grown men left, the room immediately became empty.

Shao Yunshi looked outside and saw that it was getting late, so she walked to Ximei's room. She still had many things to ask.

It just so happened that Xiaodong, a gossip, was also itching and was asking Ximei about her old uncle.

Uncle Miao's matter is not a secret. Besides, Ximei really can't do anything to Xiaodong without saying a word.

In Ximei's room, the sound of chirping kept coming out, making Shao Yunshi smile helplessly.

Ximei was washing her hair while dealing with Xiaodong, "What else could it be like? Everyone in that family is not a mortal..."

"Ah? What are you talking about?" Xiaodong was a little surprised.

Ximei didn't want to explain, so she just said: "The woman encouraged her daughter to use the old temple uncle's money to eat. After getting the money to eat, the woman only cared about her son and the man in front of her. Now she has stung a hornet's nest."

Xiaodong opened his mouth, "Ah? This woman is too cruel. She fled all the way and everyone was starving. How could she only care about her son and not take care of her daughter?"

Ximei sighed, "People in Japan are all patriarchal."

Xiaodong spat directly, "Can this be the same? This money and food were given by Uncle Miao to his biological daughter."

Ximei licked her hair and sighed: "Isn't that why this girl cried and went to Uncle Miao to complain. This complaint caused an accident..."

"Well, what should I say?" Xiaodong interrupted anxiously.

Shao Yunshi arrived just in time. After hearing this, she spat: "Xiaodong, when will you be able to be calmer and not just listen to Xi Mei finish her words before interrupting."

When the two of them saw her coming, they quickly stood up and called for someone.

Seeing that Ximei's hair was still dripping, Shao Yunshi took a dry towel and handed it to Xiaodong, "Go, don't wait around, help Ximei dry her hair."
