After the Republic of China

Chapter 839 Come again
In the magnificent hall, everyone stood in silence, and the atmosphere was oppressive.

Apparently, Mrs. Shao was caught up in her own emotions, and her former elegance was completely gone.

Miss Niu's eyes flickered, and she wiped away her tears, saying softly, "Aunt, I'm leaving now. I wanted to meet my niece to apologize to her, but she hasn't come yet. How about I go to Huaiyuan instead?"

Miss Niu said these words in many twists and turns. Mrs. Shao got angry when she heard them, secretly scolding Shao Yunshi for not knowing the rules and being unfilial.

Then, Mrs. Shao, who was a little hot-headed, no longer cared about being decent, and directly ordered the girl to recruit Shao Yunshi to Huaiyuan.

Shao Yunshi, who was about to meet Luo Cheng, suddenly saw the little girl from the main courtyard calling him with an arrogant look on her face, her face a little stunned.

Seeing her like this, the little girl curled her lips in disdain and urged her a few times.

After being urged, Shao Yunshi finally came to her senses and thought to herself, what do you mean, isn't the old lady annoying to see her the most, so she has already skipped her morning and evening greetings?

Cuixiang had obviously thought of something, and stepped forward with a smile, holding the little girl's hand, and said: "Our young lady was just about to pay her respects to the old lady, but the laboring sister ran over, and I saw her off."

As she spoke, she quietly stuffed a purse into the little girl's pocket.

This purse was made by Cuixiang when she was learning needlework. It is a bit rough, but there are a lot of coppers in it. I think the little girl won't dislike it.

Sure enough, the little girl pinched her purse and smiled slowly. She did not force Shao Yunshi to leave immediately, but followed Cuixiang outside, responding to Cuixiang's casual words as she walked.

Shao Yunshi felt a little depressed when she looked at Cuixiang who was getting smarter.

However, she was very disgusted with the girl trained by her grandmother, and was vaguely worried about the Shao family's future family tradition.

Shao Yunshi was worrying about this, but Cuixiang had already turned around.

Seeing her sullen expression, Shao Yunshi put down the embroidery bandage in her hand and asked, "What, the matter is very difficult?"

Cuixiang shook her head and said, "I don't know. That girl only said that Miss Niu had something to say to the old lady inside. What she said was about what happened at Liao's house that day. It seems that that incident didn't happen. Ask her for a favor."

Shao Yunshi said with some regret: "It's a pity that Suo's mother is ill these days, otherwise I could still persuade the old lady. Oh, it's troublesome."

"Yes, the most useful person around the old lady now is that snobbish girl Ou Xiang." Cuixiang also said with some regret.

Mentioning the lotus root fragrance, Shao Yunshi sneered and said, "That one is dreaming of my concubine. Forget it, let's go. We can meet her once in a while. We'll meet her in the morning and we can learn something about her."

After Cuixiang heard this, she helped Shao Yunshi stand up and asked carefully: "Does Miss Niu really want to kidnap Miss?"

Shao Yunshi parted her lips sarcastically, "She has the intention, but she doesn't have the strength. Maybe the person behind her can't bear it, right?"

Not to mention, Shao Yunshi was pretty sure about this.

Ever since his last attempt at the Liao family failed, Third Young Master Kang has been looking down on Miss Niu all day long, and mostly complained in his words.

Moreover, Liao Taiyong seemed to have become more and more obsessed with Shao Yunshi after this incident, and every day he forced Third Young Master Kang to find a way to get him Shao Yunshi again.

No, that’s what happened today.

Cuixiang was afraid of making the old lady angry, so she subconsciously walked faster.

Shao Yunshi frowned, pulled Cuixiang away, and said calmly: "Why are you in a hurry? No matter how fast you are, others will not appreciate you."

But no, people are just here to find fault.

Cuixiang took a breath and slowed down, but she was still worried: "If the old lady is provoked and makes some unacceptable demands, miss, what should we do?"

These words made Shao Yunshi frown.

Cuixiang tried to suggest: "Why don't you ask someone to inform the old man?" "No, someone will notify the old man." At this point, the sarcasm on Shao Yunshi's lips became louder. Apart from the old man, everyone in the Shao family was really talented.

After Cuixiang came to Yangzhou, she took over the supervision of the inner house, so she naturally knew what the lady meant.

She sighed secretly and murmured: "I don't know what's wrong with the old lady. She leaves the people around her unguarded, but she wants to go against the young lady who can't hinder her."

Shao Yunshi only narrowed her eyes slightly and then stopped talking.

Cuixiang was talking enthusiastically and didn't pay attention to the lady's meaningful look.

The two of them walked neither fast nor slowly, and after a while, they reached the end of the field.

At the entrance of the courtyard, the confidant of the old lady was guarding the courtyard. When she saw Shao Yunshi, she did not hold back and let him in very politely.

Shao Yunshi was heartbroken when the other party was so polite, and secretly squeezed Cuixiang's palm.

Cuixiang had been to the old lady's yard several times, so she naturally knew that few people here wanted to see her young lady. How could she not be alarmed by the other party's behavior?

Then, she used the young lady's strength to shake her hand.

The old lady's residence was moved to the front yard, which was no longer as deep as the previous yard.

The master and servant turned around the screen wall and saw the girls sitting or standing on the steps of the corridor.

Why are there so many people? Shao Yunshi glanced at all the girls. Well, there are some I don't know, which is interesting.

The girls, probably under their master's orders, only pretended to say hello to Shao Yunshi before going inside to report the news.

Being blocked outside the door, Shao Yunshi darkened his eyes as he listened to the girl inside replying to the people inside and the old lady pretending to be lazily coughing.

Cuixiang also caught a glimpse of the mocking eyes of the girls outside, and she felt really angry.

Shao Yunshi was much calmer, but she became more and more worried about the family tradition. The Shao family was not just for Mrs. Shao.

During the first month of the year, it was still frosty and windy outside, which was really freezing.

Even though Shao Yunshi was dressed warmly enough, she still felt a little chilly after standing for a long time.

Cuixiang had to use her little internal strength to keep the lady away from the cold.

Mrs. Shao probably didn't dare to go too far. Just when Shao Yunshi's master and servant couldn't wait any longer, they called someone inside.

With the permission from inside, Shao Yunshi's already cold hands were supported by Cuixiang and she entered the house.

The room was burning warm, and Shao Yunshi, who had just stood outside for a while, shivered with excitement.

Cuixiang secretly hated the old lady for being cruel and deliberately made her young lady stand in the cold for a long time, so she had a cold face, which made people look a little scared.

Shao Yunshi squeezed Cuixiang's hand, fearing that she would offend her grandmother and be reprimanded.

Cuixiang secretly sighed, calmed down a little, and together with the young lady, she greeted the aloof Mrs. Shao, and naturally she was not rude to Miss Niu.

Miss Niu proudly accepted Shao Yunshi's salute to the old lady without giving in, and hearing her sincere greetings to her, she felt inexplicably better.

However, she still hated the woman in front of her who always looked calm and elegant.

Mrs. Shao was really impatient to see her granddaughter's face that was very similar to her former daughter-in-law, Mrs. Lu.

Then, when she saw her, the old lady's brows wrinkled unnaturally.
