After the Republic of China

Chapter 791 Invitation

Chapter 791 Invitation

People often say that a man is like his clothes and his saddle, whether his house is luxurious or not, it is nothing more than that.

Everything about Shao Mansion shocked the visitors.

It even made the visitor feel uneasy and regretful about taking the liberty of visiting.

Fang Ke thought he was an acquaintance with Shao Yunshi, and said to the people behind him like a master: "Everyone, please sit down, it's really warm here."

Fortunately, the people he brought were very discerning. They ignored Fang Ke and just stood there with a smile. One of them handed a business card to Shao Yunshi.

Shao Yunshi saw that the other party was still polite, her expression relaxed a little, and she also had a smile on her face.

She took the business card that Ximei brought over and said politely: "Please sit down, everyone."

The host greeted, and the others sat down in order.

This person's position and name were printed on the business card. He worked at the same newspaper office as Fang Ke and was also a director.

Shao Yunshi was not very familiar with the New Culture Newspaper, so she looked at the other party in confusion and said, "Tea, please."

I'm not here to drink tea. The other party is obviously a little anxious.

As soon as he heard Shao Yunshi speak, he took a sip of tea, and without even having time to savor the good tea, he said, "It's really a helpless thing to come here to disturb her."

Shao Yunshi raised her eyebrows but did not answer.

When the other party saw that she was still calm at such a young age, he couldn't help but become more concerned about her, and when he saw the righteous Ling who came in a hurry, he didn't dare to look down upon her.

The person didn't think much and said directly: "Ms. Shao, the reason for disturbing you this time is because a writer in our international section is ill. She is responsible for the translation and annotation, and she can't keep up all of a sudden... "

This is strange to say. What is the connection between your work unit and coming to my place? Shao Yunshi raised his eyebrows calmly.

Fang Ke was a little dissatisfied with her behavior. Fortunately, Fang Ke kept paying attention to her brother, so Fang Ke didn't say anything bad.

The director was very discerning, and when he saw this, he was not dissatisfied, but became more sincere, "I heard that Miss Shao knows everything about China and foreign countries in ancient and modern times, and she inherited the training from the court at a young age, so I have to ask Miss Shao for help today."

In fact, these people came because of Mr. Shao's reputation as a great Confucian scholar.

Shao Yunshi was so smart. She glanced at the oily director clearly and said calmly: "I wonder how the director knows about me?"

Fang Ke, who had already drank a whole cup of tea, listened to Shao Yunshi's words, no longer caring about his sister's pull, and immediately claimed the credit: "I said, this is a great thing, it can help you get out of this small world. "

Everyone who followed him was very dissatisfied with him for taking the conversation without permission, especially the oily director.

Shao Yunshi was even more contemptuous of his self-righteousness.

After glancing at everyone's expressions, Shao Yunshi felt that now was a good opportunity to attack.

However, thinking about her cousin, she hesitated.

She knew that because of the friendship between the children, her cousin, a businessman who studied abroad, had a good relationship with her parents, who were teachers in the Fang family.

When we were in a dilemma, someone spoke up.

Director Youtou probably sensed Shao Yunshi's displeasure. Before she spoke, he hurriedly said: "Do you think you should contact our new international editor? She is a famous female writer, Guan Ping."

Guan Ping? One of the leaders of the Shanghai Women's Anti-Japanese and Anti-Imperialist Alliance, well, he is indeed famous and writes good propaganda articles.

Shao Yunshi also knew this person well.

Seeing Guan Ping being carried out and showing some interest, Director Youtou breathed a sigh of relief.

He came here without any determination, he just wanted to get to know Mr. Shao through the woman in front of him. Unexpectedly, the woman in front of him was so restrained and intellectual, and she seemed to be someone with real knowledge. He suddenly changed his original intention and really wanted to invite her to work in the newspaper office.

After all, their newspaper is just a new newspaper, lacking talents, and of course, it lacks popularity.

Others may not know the director's thoughts, but Shao Yunshi can still guess a thing or two.

However, even though she had a crush on the talented and knowledgeable female writer, she didn't just go along with the director's wishes.

After thinking for a while, she declined: "I have to think about this matter again. Besides, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I have to go back to Yangzhou."

Director Youtou was a little disappointed when he heard this. However, seeing that the other party did not refuse immediately, he became hopeful again and said hurriedly: "Of course, I hope to become colleagues with you."

Fang Ke was anxious, "Director, how can this matter be delayed?"

This man was so expressionless that the oily director's face changed color.

Afraid that Miss Shao would feel uncomfortable, the director hurriedly said: "The manuscript is not urgent, as long as it can be picked up after spring."

To say that Fang Ke didn't wince was true. The leader had already said this, and he even shouted, "But there are still some days until the spring begins. Our international version has just gained popularity, so we can't panic."

Fortunately, he never left the development of the newspaper, otherwise the director would have to carefully consider whether to retain Fang Ke.

Director Youtou sighed and explained: "Writer Guan has already renewed the manuscript for next quarter."

Fang Ke really breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It can be seen that this person is not without merit.

After hearing this, Shao Yunshi knew that the matter was not urgent, so she said directly: "I can't give you an accurate answer here. If you can find someone, I won't consider it."

This was a disguised refusal. Although the oily director was sorry, he still politely said: "If you agree to consider it, it will be an emergency. However, no matter whether we can find someone or not, our newspaper office will still wait for you."

This is indeed sincere.

Shao Yunshi's dislike faded a lot when she saw that the other party knew how to advance and retreat. Moreover, speaking of it, this classmate Fang was really kind, but unfortunately he was too self-righteous.

Fang Ke probably never imagined that the good impression he had deliberately gained over the past few days would not be worth the unintentional move he did today.

Because the host's mood has improved a lot, the atmosphere in the hall has also become gentle.

Shao Yunshi invited Ximei to serve tea and fruit snacks again.

Her attitude made everyone in the group feel a lot more comfortable.

Probably because he saw her attitude softening, the man with glasses who had been following the oily director quietly spoke, "Miss Shao, I am Yan Hua, a composition teacher at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music."

This introduction is clean and not procrastinating, but it makes people’s eyes brighten.

However, Shao Yunshi said 'hmm' and glanced at Fang Ke beside him in puzzlement. Aren't they on the same page?

Shao Yunshi looked at Fang Ke subconsciously and was immediately embarrassed by his ecstatic expression.

Xiaodong, who had been guarding him, immediately stared at someone unconsciously.

When Fang Ke saw Shao Yunshi looking at him squarely for the first time, he didn't care about the fierce eyes next to him. He hurriedly pushed his sister and asked her to reply.

Fang Juan was pushed by her brother and almost staggered. In front of everyone, she blushed with embarrassment.

The actions of the brother and sister made Shao Yunshi immediately understand the relationship between the people in front of him.

This composition teacher named Yan Hua was brought by Fang Jun. It seems that he and Director Youtou are familiar with each other.
