After the Republic of China

Chapter 816 Whirlpool

Chapter 816 Whirlpool
The man's bedroom was cold and hard, not to mention the unmaintained bedroom, which made the winter even colder.

Lao Zhong helped the young master make the bed and put down the quilt, looking a little clumsy.

He thought that when the fourth lady got married, the young master would have someone to take care of him.

Sighing, he said: "Forget it, let's cooperate. We have to marry a daughter-in-law in a good manner before we talk about it in the future."

Yuan Baosen drank some cold wine and cold dishes. He was not feeling very well at the moment. It could be seen that the old servant was busy with himself, and his heart felt much warmer.

He smiled and said with rare relief: "This cooperation is also necessary for me. Don't worry."

Yes, Lao Zhong, who was a little depressed just now, became happy again when he thought that the cooperation between the young master and Young Master Kang was indeed beneficial. If this thing comes to pass, his young master's wings will be even harder. What will he be afraid of then? Home.

After thinking about it for a while, Lao Zhong became determined.

but? He thought for a while and found something he still didn't understand, so he asked again: "Did the young master speak for the Shao family just now?"

The servants are not allowed to eavesdrop when the masters are talking. However, Lao Zhong is special, and you can always hear a word or two when he helps remove the plates and change dishes.

Seeing him asking this, Yuan Baosen was not surprised at all. He sighed with a heavy look, "Yes."

In the plan just now, Young Master Kang did have the intention to continue to use the Shao family to attract the attention of others.

However, it was rejected by Yuan Baosen, and of course the reason was reasonable.

After all, the Shao family has been turned upside down by various people in the world over the years, and someone also found a treasure map at the beginning of the year. This makes it easy for people to find out that the Shao family has been framed.

Young Master Kang had discussed these matters with Lao Zhong in private.

When Lao Zhong saw that the young master agreed, he felt a little happy, "In Yangzhou City, among the people we are familiar with, Mr. Shao is an upright and highly respected man. The Yuan family has harmed others for many years, so we can no longer be accomplices."

Regarding being able to confront Master Yuan, Lao Zhong was much more positive than Yuan Baosen.

It's not that Yuan Baosen doesn't know Lao Zhong's thoughts, but he himself is the same. Moreover, I have to say that I do feel some compassion for the Shao family.

He squinted at Lao Zhong in a funny way and said with a sneer: "Do you think that Young Master Kang really listened?"

"Ah, don't you understand what the young master said? He still wants to take advantage of the Shao family?" Lao Zhong was a little confused.

Yuan Baosen dropped the handkerchief in his hand and chuckled twice, "In addition to profit, these people have no fear. However, I'm afraid he will have to use some brains on how to use the Shao family."

Lao Zhong knew the situation of the Shao family, so he curled his lips and said: "Mr. Shao is a person, but it's a pity that the one in the family is a little unclear, and something bad will probably happen at home."

Yuan Baosen sighed secretly, "No, the head wife of the Shao family is not upright and has damaged the foundation of the Shao family. I don't know what will happen to the Shao family in the future."

Lao Zhong thought of the Shao family uncle who was far away in Peiping and sneered, "Mrs. Shao has brought a girl from her mother's family to Yang. I'm afraid the Shao family will cause trouble again."

The Shao family has been in trouble for so many years because of Bai's second wife, and everyone in Yangzhou knows about it. No wonder Lao Zhong said this.

Because of Lao Zhong, although Yuan Baosen has not been in Yangzhou for many years, he still knows everything big and small.

He even felt that the Yuan family had a lot to do with the Shao family scandal?

The charcoal pot in the guest room in the front yard of the Yuan family was burning hot, but it couldn't drive away the chill in people's hearts.

Yuan Baosen suppressed his disdain for his father and said seriously to Lao Zhong: "Has the matter about Niu and Shao's family been spread outside?"

Lao Zhong shook his head hastily, "No, I heard about it from my master's courtyard by chance."

Sure enough, my father still got involved.

Yuan Baosen sneered several times, thought back and forth, and sneered: "The Niu family has reached this stage and they still don't know how to restrain themselves. They actually think about such a thing..." Old Zhong was stunned by the young master's words, "Could it be that the Niu family doesn't know how to restrain themselves? Did you have any other ideas?"

After hearing this, Yuan Baosen secretly sighed that Lao Zhong was limited by his identity and could only find out so much information.

After looking at Lao Zhong who had a gossipy face, he couldn't hold it back and whispered into Lao Zhong's ear.

As Lao Zhong listened, his hair stood on end. If he hadn't been worried about being in front of the young master, he would have screamed in surprise.

However, he was really in a state of turmoil, "Well, how dare the Niu family dare to bully people like this? They've already made a betrothal, and they're here to trick people. How will the two families see each other in the future?"

Naturally, I didn’t want to see you again.

Yuan Baosen smiled sarcastically, "Money and silk are so touching!"

Lao Zhong's heart skipped a beat, "Master, is it true that the Shao family has something?"

Yuan Baosen narrowed his eyes at Lao Zhong in a funny way, "You really dare to think that if the Shao family really had any treasure, it wouldn't be like this now. You know, the Shao family's little son-in-law is not an easy person."

Lao Zhong also thought of the young son-in-law of the Shao family. He was lucky enough to see that man. He was handsome and handsome, wearing a military uniform of high rank, which made people unable to take their eyes away.

Now that I think about it, that person shouldn't be easy to mess with.

Lao Zhong glanced at the young master with some worry, "Is there going to be something wrong with our family?"

Yuan Baosen laughed and said, "You should ask me if I'm okay?"

"Yes, yes, that's what I mean." Lao Zhong was only worried about his young master.

He knew the whereabouts of the secret treasury in the Jiangbei camp at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and he had long been disdainful of Mr. Yuan's efforts to blame Mr. Shao.

But after all, that was someone else's business, so he could only sigh.

However, the current situation made him worry about others' revenge.

Yuan Baosen really didn't know if the Shao family retaliated, would it affect him, a fish in the pond?

Seeing the young master frowning, Lao Zhong became even more worried, "Young master, how about we stop intervening this time? If there is an accident and the Shao family knows what the Yuan family has done, then we will be really in trouble."

Yuan Baosen was stunned when he heard this, "Uncle Zhong thinks that after all these years, Mr. Shao still doesn't know who is behind the scenes?"

ah? Old Zhong frowned, "Then why does Mr. Shao still let it go?"

Yuan Baosen smiled faintly, "Who knows? Mr. Shao is familiar with classics, history and art of war, and his brain is very good."

This word? Lao Zhong hesitated for a moment, "Young Master, is it possible that Mr. Shao is afraid of the Kang family?"

Hehe, Yuan Baosen sneered, "The Kang family is located in the northeast, and it looks powerful now. Mr. Shao will not be afraid of him."

"Then, is it because Mr. Shao doesn't have the ability or the courage to deal with our family?" Lao Zhong felt that the truth was true. After all, the Shao family is just a scholarly family, and they are definitely not good at it.

Yuan Baosen laughed loudly after hearing this, "Wrong, it's so wrong."

Lao Zhong was puzzled by the young master's laughter, "What's wrong? If Mr. Shao had this ability, the Shao family wouldn't have been so miserable all these years."

Yuan Baosen got excited and explained, "Do you still remember what happened in Yangzhou on New Year's Eve last year?"

"Of course I remember. The bandits harmed many big families that day." Lao Zhong still has lingering fears when he thinks about it.
