After the Republic of China

Chapter 787: Splitting the Sect
In the troubled times of the Republic of China, sticking together is the best way to survive.

However, if the other party only knows about kidnapping and extortion, then that’s a different story.

Moreover, Shao Yunshi felt that although it was not good to separate the sects, if there was a real separation, she didn't think there was a big problem.

Yan Liping had long known that his cousin was smart and understood etiquette, but he didn't expect that she could understand these things. After all, it was the old man of the Shao family who taught her, and she knew a lot about ancient etiquette.

Then, he nodded and explained: "It's such a principle. It's a pity that in today's chaotic world, some people don't pay attention to it. Therefore, it is impossible to escape from the shackles over there without paying a price."

After saying that, he looked at Shao Yunshi apologetically, and said with a touch of sadness: "For our future freedom and the reproduction of the family, my mother traded the orange grove for the peace of the old house."

"What!" Not only Wan Meiyan shouted, Shao Yunshi also frowned, and her heart beat a little faster.

Yan Liping narrowed his eyes with a wry smile and said, "It's because I'm not capable enough, otherwise I wouldn't have used my mother's dowry."

He said this lightly, but everyone present knew that this orange grove could not be as simple as a dowry. There is also the old lady's feelings for the old man.

Wan Meiyan sighed deeply and said with regret: "Every year when the oranges are red, my mother-in-law likes to stay in the orange garden, just like she did many years ago, as if she is waiting for her father-in-law to come back. Now, now..., These people are so damned!"

Wan Meiyan is still very good to her mother-in-law, especially now that she has loosened the shackles in her heart.

Compared to the Yan family's ancestral home on the fifth floor, Shao Yunshi knew that her old aunt cared more about the orange grove she built with her old aunt and grandpa. What a pity?

Shao Yunshi felt sour and didn't know what to say.

Yan Liping saw the expressions of the two women and knew the regret in their hearts, and said hurriedly: "Don't think too much, the orange grove is important, but my mother said that our ancestral home is more important."

This is correct. What can Wan Meiyan and Shao Yunshi say?
Yan Liping thought about it and then said, "Don't say this."

For Shao Yunshi, who has a secret treasury, it was immediately clear upon hearing this.

If you think about it carefully, if the ancestral house really has a secret vault, it would not be a pity. After all, the orangery can be bought back. Once the secrets in the ancestral home are exposed, it will be terrible.

Wan Meiyan's family background was not low. Looking at her husband's serious face, she vaguely understood something.

She covered her mouth in surprise, suppressing the words she was about to say.

It's a shame, otherwise Yan Cuiling, who just came up, would have been called to listen.

Hearing the knock on the door, the three people in the room immediately stopped talking.

Yan Cuiling knocked on the door and shouted complainingly.

Knowing it was her, Wan Meiyan and Shao Yunshi frowned unhappily.

Yan Liping said with a gentle expression: "Cuiling, come in."

The voice was as gentle as before, but Shao Yunshi, standing next to Yan Liping, was sensitive to the difference.

She glanced at Wan Meiyan lying on the bed again, with a displeased expression, knowing that something must have happened that she didn't know about.

Shao Yunshi, who remained calm, moved farther away from the big bed before Yan Cuiling came in. She really didn't want Yan Cuiling to think that she was trying to compete for favor.

Both Wan Meiyan and Wan Meiyan saw Shao Yunshi's behavior, and they felt more and more that they had been too indulgent to Yan Cuiling in the past, which made her lose her normal mind. "Uncle, aunt, the guests are here, do you want to start now?" She sounded like the head of the family.

In fact, speaking of it, Yan Cuiling did not become like this in one day.

Yan Liping's pity and love, the Yan family's wooing and instigation, and the fact that there was a particularly outstanding and favored Shao Yunshi, made Yan Cuiling lose her sense of normalcy.

Yan Liping thought about his cousin who died young, but he sighed secretly and said as gently as possible: "Boss Sheng is here too? Okay, let's start the banquet. It's getting late now."

Yan Cuiling didn't pay attention to her uncle's tone. She felt relieved when she saw Shao Yunshi far away from the bed, so she ignored it.

With a bit of pride, she said cheerfully: "Not only is Boss Sheng here, but Mr. Yin is also here."

Sure enough, these two people arrived, and Shao Yunshi frowned slightly.

It is true that Mr. Yin Youdeyin and Yan Liping are schoolmates, but they have different temperaments.

Then, Yan Liping really didn't invite this person specially, and expressed his confusion that he also came.

Yan Cuiling was not one to judge people, so she said calmly as usual, "Mr. Yin has received a lot of invitations today, and they came to our house because of Boss Sheng's face."

The three people in the room choked up when they heard this. Are they going to support the condescending Mr. Yin?
You know, no matter how famous this person is in the cultural world, he is not inferior to others in business, especially in these troubled times.

Yan Cuiling continued without knowing it: "I arranged for Mr. Yin and Fang Jun and Fang Ke to share a table with me, and Mr. Sheng to share a table with the previous bosses, so as not to insult Mr. Yin's identity."

Yan Cuiling's talk to herself made everyone in the room look sideways.

In particular, Yan Liping, who usually treated her well, had a tendency to darken his face.

Yan Cuiling didn't hear her uncle's objections, and felt even more proud. She deliberately glanced at Shao Yunshi, who was standing by blankly.

Shao Yunshi looked at the proud Yan Cuiling and sighed secretly, "What the hell is this!"

Nowadays, she can't understand it. Is this still the person who knew how to make decisions before taking action? This was a bit too public, and it didn't take into account the identity of the host, my cousin.

What changed her? Shao Yunshi subconsciously glanced at her cousin on the bed, could it be?

With such determination, Shao Yunshi suddenly became enlightened. No wonder Yan Cuiling is so abnormal now, and her cousin and uncle are acting like this. It turns out that everything is because of the heirs.

Thinking of this, Shao Yunshi couldn't help but sneer, even if her cousin had no heirs, it would be impossible to adopt Yan Cuiling, right? Moreover, the Yan family would not be happy either. This Yan Cuiling was really deceived by lard.

Probably because he looked down on Yan Cuiling's style, the always good-tempered Yan Liping also turned cold and said, "Well, let's do it. By the way, has the kitchen started serving food?"

Yan Cuiling was even more happy when she saw that her arrangement was approved by her cousin. She only regretted: "It's rare for Mr. Yin to come here today. It's a pity that Chong and cousin don't have time. Otherwise, it would be great if we all sit down and talk."

Wan Meiyan was afraid that she would say something inappropriate again, so she hurriedly said: "I'm not feeling well, so Cui Ling has made arrangements for me today. Okay, get down quickly, don't keep the guests waiting."

Yan Cuiling heard that Wan Meiyan didn't say anything about asking Shao Yunshi to follow her, and she felt sad but also a little lucky. Mr. Yin is a benchmark figure of new literature, how could she ask the decadent Shao Yunshi to follow her to get the glory.

Seeing Yan Cuiling retreating gracefully, the three people in the room sighed.

Especially Yan Liping, he did it without any embarrassment.
