After the Republic of China

Chapter 842 Helpless
The little boy is cute and well-behaved, and everyone loves him.

Even though the room was unbearably depressing, Shao Yunshi also smiled sincerely.

Mrs. Shao is happy when her grandson is happy, so this time she did not stop her eldest granddaughter from sending the lantern, and she was very satisfied that Shao Yunshi could talk to her eldest grandson well.

Then, she explained in a rare good-natured way: "Auntie, if you greet your cousin well, then the matter of that day can be considered over. All women should be generous."

There is indeed nothing wrong with the tone of these words, but the meaning makes people feel angry and want to get angry.

Mrs. Shao didn't think anything was wrong. After speaking, she directly ordered Ou Xiang beside her, "Give the eldest lady some money. Don't tell them girls to be timid when going out."

Mrs. Shao had never been so generous to Shao Yun's poems. When Ou Xiang heard it for the first time, she was stunned for a moment.

They were like this, which made Shao Yunshi raise his eyebrows sarcastically. She secretly thought that her grandmother might have set the tone for this matter, but unfortunately, she thought wrong about herself. A little benefit is not in her eyes, let alone warms her heart.

Shao Yunshi thought about it, looked helplessly at her excited younger brother, and sighed secretly.

When Miss Niu saw that her aunt not only allowed Shao Yunshi to go out with her, but also paid for it out of her own pocket, she really felt that her aunt was a nice person and that she deserved the flattery she had just made.

Ou Xiang came back quickly, holding a delicate purse in her hand, and handed it directly to Shao Yunshi.

When Miss Niu saw the money, she couldn't bear it for a long time. Unfortunately, she still wanted to face others and didn't grab it.

Shao Yunshi was also stunned when she saw the purse, because this purse was her work. I wonder what Ou Xiang meant by doing this?
Miss Niu was already anxious. Taking advantage of Shao Yunshi's daze, she pulled him out of the main room without leaving the money bag behind.

Cuixiang looked at it with disdain as Miss Niu put the money bag into her hands.

As soon as the group of people left the room, the unfamiliar girls standing on the porch gathered around.

this? Cuixiang's back was already tense.

Shao Yunshi also caught a glimpse of the smile at the corner of Miss Niu's mouth, and became even more alert.

Knowing that it was not easy to escape, Shao Yunshi became calm, just in time to see what this group of people wanted to do.

Therefore, although Shao Niu and Shao Niu were not on good terms, they both had their own plans, so they walked out of the courtyard in tacit understanding.

Just as they walked away, no one saw a girl staring at them in a hidden corner and quietly retreated to the backyard.

The old aunt's place in the backyard.

"Old aunt, the eldest lady was pushed out of the yard by Miss Niu." The one who spoke was the girl who had peeked just now, the old aunt of the Shao family Zhang's girl Ling Jiao.

Probably because he was too shocked, sweat broke out from his forehead on this winter day.

Mrs. Zhang seemed not to notice Ling Jiao gasping for breath, but looked at the charcoal basin in the room with a gloomy expression, and asked: "Press it? Are you sure? Is the Niu family so brave?"

Aunt Zhang's attitude ranged from surprise to confusion, and there was even a hint of disgust behind her, which made people feel inexplicably chilly.

Lingjiao has served Aunt Zhang for many years and knows that she hates the Niu family very much. She has no feelings about this. She only replied: "Although I didn't get started, it seems that she left under pressure from our eldest daughter."

After hearing this, Aunt Zhang became a little worried about Shao Yunshi. After all, the eldest lady treated her, her daughter, and her grandchildren very well, and she still appreciated this.

Sighing, Aunt Zhang asked doubtfully: "The girl next to the eldest lady looks bad, why didn't she take action?" Lingjiao shook his head, "I was standing far away, so I didn't see anything specific."

In this way, Aunt Zhang sighed regretfully.

Lingjiao added: "However, there are many girls from the Niu family here this time. They all look strong and powerful, surrounding the eldest lady and Miss Niu, as if they are afraid that the eldest lady will escape."

For the kind eldest lady, Lingjiao still showed no concern for her.

Mrs. Zhang was puzzled by this, "Where are the girls in the old lady's courtyard?"

"Just watch." Lingjiao pursed his lips, "Auntie, what should I do? Looking at the posture, the eldest lady must not be good. Poor eldest lady is such a good person, what if she is harmed by that overbearing cousin? ?”

Probably because he cared so much about Shao Yunshi, Lingjiao forgot that his master was a wise and protective person.

Sure enough, although Mr. Zhang misses the beauty of Shao Yun's poems, he also knows that the eldest lady is really nice, but so what? As far as he and his grandchildren are concerned, they are still separated.

However, Ling Jiao's words still made her realize another possibility. She had to think about how to give her eye drops and sell the eldest lady a favor without attracting the old lady's attention.

Although Lingjiao felt a little anxious for Shao Yunshi, she still preferred her old aunt. Over the years, life has not been easy for the old aunt.

Moreover, the old man was a very upright man, and he had no intention of doting on his concubine and destroying his wife, or favoring his concubine over his direct descendants. If something happens, the old aunt will not get the protection of his old man.

Then, she said nothing more and just waited quietly.

Mrs. Zhang also knows that time waits for no one, so she plans to gamble for her own future and the future of her grandchildren.

Then, she quickly said to Lingjiao: "You go to the study at the front, and don't say anything else. Just quietly meet the boy next to old housekeeper Zhang and tell him what you saw."

It's that simple? Before Lingjiao had time to ask why, he was pushed out by Zhang.

Seeing Ling Jiao go away, Ms. Zhang relaxed and lay down on the fur-cushioned lounge chair. She felt warm against the soft fur.

After regaining some energy, she secretly prayed that the old man would take care of her grandchildren while she was aware of the general situation.

The children are now grown, and it’s time to talk about marriage. Zhang thinks that as long as the old man pays more attention to the children, why is he worried about the marriage of the children?

With such expectations, Zhang's racing heart miraculously calmed down, and she became quiet again, becoming an honest and obedient old aunt again.

Lingjiao's side was going smoothly. He entered the old man's study without much effort and told the young man the news in a cryptic manner.

In fact, Mr. Shao is not at home today. If he were at home, there would be no need for Mrs. Zhang to bother to report the news. He would have stopped Miss Niu quickly.

However, their efforts were not in vain. In the end, the old man found out about it and remembered Zhang's good deeds and complaints about his wife.

But at this time, because the old man was not at home, no one came to stop Shao Yunshi when she walked out of the front yard.

Knowing that there was no other hope, Shao Yunshi, who was standing at the fork in the road, turned his eyes and said directly to Miss Niu: "It's still early, cousin, why don't you go to my place to sit for a while? You have to pack up before going out."

As she spoke, she glanced at the makeup that Miss Niu had just spent on tears.

Miss Niu, who was extremely uncomfortable by her look, swallowed her retort. After all, there is no girl who doesn't clean up her pretty things when she goes out, and she herself had to clean up before coming to the Shao family.
