After the Republic of China

Chapter 759 Hopeless

In the bedroom, the master and servants were in low spirits and their breaths were stagnant.

Ximei and Xiaodong looked at the young lady worriedly, their words filled with helplessness.

Shao Yunshi glanced at the two of them and smiled, "Don't worry, I will find out one day anyway. Rather than finding out from others, it's better for you to tell me."

She was actually mentally prepared, and that's why she approached Ximei for interrogation.

Ximei glanced at the young lady, "Actually, my mother-in-law said that the old lady is not sad. She is quite happy to leave the old house."

Um? Shao Yunshi knew Ximei's mother-in-law, and Mother Wen was the old aunt's dowry girl. She must know the old aunt's thoughts best.

Then, she hurriedly asked: "Ximei, what did your mother-in-law say?"

Seeing that the young lady was anxious, Ximei hurriedly said: "My mother-in-law said that the old lady actually only cares about the young lady. Now that the young lady no longer returns to Suzhou, she also feels that living in such a big house is a bit boring."

Speaking of this, Ximei actually didn’t believe it.

She didn't believe it, but Shao Yunshi believed it. She nodded and said, "My grandma actually had a wild temper when she was young. She has indeed been wronged over the years."

Miss Ximeixin said with some relief on her face, "My mother-in-law also said that the old lady has guarded the home for the old man for so many years, and she has just left now, so she can be considered worthy of the old man."

That was true, but there was still a difference between walking by oneself and walking helplessly. Shao Yunshi felt heavy in her heart.

Ximei also sighed, "Actually, the old house was let out by the master, and there is nothing that she can't handle."

"Is this what your mother meant, or what the old aunt said herself." Shao Yunshi frowned.

Ximei nodded, "The old lady means the same thing."

Shao Yunshi's heart ached after hearing this.

The house in Suzhou city is the dowry of the old aunt, and this is probably the most peaceful place for the old aunt to live.

Shao Yunshi thought about it for a while, knowing that Ximei would not know anything anymore, so she said: "Okay, as long as the old aunt is not angry, you can clean up first, and I will leave."

Seeing the young lady walking away with a dull face, Ximei took Xiaodong's hand and said worriedly: "You said the young lady won't keep this anger in her heart, right?"

"Such a big thing, it's definitely not possible for the lady to just let it go like this." Xiaodong curled his lips and sighed.

"Yes, the old house in Suzhou is also home to the young lady." Ximei said with some sentimentality.

Seeing that Ximei was very tired, Xiaodong didn't say much and just said: "Don't worry, my uncle is here. By the way, I forgot to ask, who helped you at the station?"

Seeing that the young lady was in a bad mood just now, Xiaodong didn't mention it. Now, her curiosity was piqued again.

Xiaodong's words came unexpectedly, making Ximei's heart tremble.

Xiaodong didn't pay attention to Ximei's expression and pushed her hard, "Speak quickly!"

Being urged, Ximei suddenly felt a little awkward and whispered: "It's not someone I'm particularly familiar with, it's someone who works under the young master of the Yu family in Yangzhou. But I'm really indebted to him today. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to be beaten." Trampled to death.”

She said this with lingering fear.

Xiaodong was younger after all, so he didn't notice Ximei's unnaturalness. He just said, "That's really a favor. I must talk to the lady later. This is a good favor." Ximei also felt that The favor was great, otherwise she and Uncle Miao would definitely suffer. but? "I've only been away for a few days, why did Shanghai suddenly become such a mess?"

Xiaodong knew more or less, like the people from the Investigation Department investigating Japanese people, but it was hard to say this to Ximei.

She could only say perfunctorily: "Who knows how many things happen in a day in this big city."

Ximei just asked casually. When Xiaodong said this, she thought it was nothing and sighed.

Shao Yunshi, who was walking away, also remembered that she had not asked Ximei who rescued her. He was about to turn back, but felt that there was no need to be in such a hurry. It was better to read Biaozi's letter first.

She felt that Biaozi must know the whole story.

When they arrived at the study, Shao Yunshi had just sat down and poured out the envelope when Luo Congbai came.

When she saw him, Shao Yunshi didn't put down the letter. She just waved him to sit next to her and asked, "How is Uncle Miao?"

"It's nothing. The trauma is easy to deal with. It's just a scratch and a squeeze. Just put some medicine on it. But looking at the serious injury in his heart, there is nothing others can do. He can only slowly figure it out on his own." Cong Bai sighed while looking at the letter handed over by Shao Yunshi.

Shao Yunshi frowned, "Uncle Miao still has some feelings for his cheap daughter. In the past, when he couldn't find anyone, he often thought of his daughter. Sometimes he even talked to us about his daughter's childhood. Now this..."

"Don't think too much. These things happened earlier, and Uncle Miao could have been freed earlier. Huh? What's this, cousin Liping actually gave up the garden of the old house for business?" Luo Congbai happened to see it. Biaozi said this.

Shao Yunshi just glanced at the ten lines without looking carefully. He stretched his head to take a look. It was really very clear.

It is indeed not easy for my cousin to build such a family business in Shanghai. After all, he has no help. Apart from the property left by his old aunt and grandfather, he has no connections.

At this point, Shao Yunshi felt much calmer and calmer, so she didn't feel sad for her old aunt. She also knew that what Cousin Liping did was not excessive.

Then, she said: "Perhaps Cousin Liping also feels that it is too lonely for my old aunt to live alone in the old house. As for business, maybe it is just the right time."

Luo Congbai disagreed, "As the old saying goes, it's hard to leave the old home. The old man has lived here all his life. He should be sad to leave so suddenly."

Shao Yunshi sighed, "Those people in the old house have long been jealous of the old house and the garden. If it fails this time, there is no guarantee that those people will do anything fatal next time."

Luo Congbai thought about it and nodded: "That's right. It's really not appropriate for the old aunt to be left alone in the family. Now, like this, it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone."

"Yes, we saved the old house after all." Shao Yunshi lazily leaned on the man's shoulder.

Luo Congbai supported his wife's head and asked doubtfully: "But why don't I come to Shanghai to live here? It will be more lively with you and cousin Yan here."

Shao Yunshi had already read Biaozi's letter, and she felt much better now that she knew that cousin Liping had indeed done nothing extraordinary.

After hearing this, she said: "From what Ximei said, I guess my old aunt actually wanted to come to Shanghai to live with me, but it was just because she was in the way of my cousin, so she lived in an apartment in Suzhou city first."

It's possible. Luo Congbai put down the letter in his hand and asked, "Biaozi said that Lin Yin hasn't replied to him for several days. What do you think?"

Shao Yunshi also had a headache when it came to the ignorance of emotional issues between friends. She sighed and said, "You are a man. Tell me, what would happen if Biaozi knew about his thoughts?"

Luo Congbai had been in contact with Yan Biao and Lin Yin, so he thought for a while and said: "Actually, I think Biaozi may not necessarily have to be Lin Yin. They should have been in love since they were young, and the relationship is not very deep. The love between man and woman.”
