After the Republic of China

Chapter 9 Secret Letter
Shao Diyuan, the precious grandson of the only branch of the Shao family, can think whatever he wants at home, and whoever disobeyed him.

At this time, he couldn't get anything, and there was already anger in his eyes.

Seeing that her younger brother was about to make a scene, Shao Xiuxue hurriedly hid the nail polish behind her back.

Mrs. Bai has business to do, so she said anxiously: "Xiu Xue, you can just give it to my younger brother, and my mother will buy it for you later."

"Buy it again!" Shao Xiuxue rolled her eyes, "Are you willing? This is imported, and I begged my uncle for a long time before he bought it."

Bai Shi gave her an angry look, "Tomorrow you will know that I am reluctant, hurry up and give it to your brother."

Shao Diyuan looked proudly at his mother and sister arguing, as if he would cry if he didn't give.

In the old house, Shao Xiuxue didn't dare to make her younger brother cry, she took it out from behind, and said distressedly: "You must buy it for me tomorrow, otherwise, I won't believe you next time."

Bai took it directly from her hand and handed it to his son, "Go outside and play."

After getting something, Shao Diyuan smiled and snorted at his sister, then let the girl carry him to the outside room.

"Mom, look at my younger brother." Shao Xiuxue saw her younger brother's complacent expression, her heart dripping with blood, "You must buy it again for me."

Mrs. Bai glanced at her daughter angrily, and then casually gave her a diamond hairpin, "This is for you. Alright, you go to the room to tidy up, it's time for dinner later."

Shao Xiuxue accepted the card, but she was not very happy, she pouted and said, "You have a gold hairpin inlaid with pink diamonds, why don't you give it to me, you are stingy."

Bai waved his hand, "Your child is a family member, what gold hairpin do you bring, go, go back to your own room."

Shao Xiuxue was also happy to get something, so she got up obediently, "Don't forget to take me shopping tomorrow."

Bai Shi was very anxious, and waved her hands again and again, "Got it, you can go quickly, I have a lot of things to do."

Shao Xiuxue looked at the bundles on the table and couch, she didn't dare to say anything, and left quickly, she didn't want to help tidy up.

As soon as her daughter left, Bai quickly asked Youye to take out the letter, "Who sent it?"

Youye said with a pale face, "I didn't see it."

"Then how did you get it?" Bai was surprised.

"It's dark outside, I can't see clearly, I feel a gust of wind, and there is something extra in my hand." You Ye said this, still a little timid.

Bai Shi looked at the words on the envelope that she had personally signed, and thought to herself, the poor pomelo leaf knew it, otherwise it would be bad for others to read it.

Patting his chest, Bai Shi waved his hand for Yuye to stand aside.

Youye glanced at Madam hesitantly, and then retreated to the door to guard.

Bai Shi is not in the mood to care about the girl's thoughts at this time, she just feels that the letter in her hand hurts her hands.

What should come will come after all, Bai took a deep breath and poured out the letter.

On the letter paper, there is only a simple line of words.

——Quick check Huaiyuan.

Looking at these words, Bai's heart was heavy.

After sitting bored for a while, Mrs. Bai called girl.

Youye heard the shout and hurried in.

"Youye, what happened to the big girl?" Bai asked with lowered eyes.

ah?Yuba didn't know, so, "What happened?"

Bai said impatiently: "Did you go to Huaiyuan in the past few days?"

Youye curled her lips secretly, "Xiaodong and Ximei, those two girls, it was like seeing a ghost when they saw me, they walked around me from a long distance."

"Then you won't start elsewhere." Bai's eyes sharpened.

Youye was a little afraid of seeing Bai's stern eyes, and hurriedly said: "Bai Erniang's side can't do it either, this old thing is very slippery, but Peach Blossom seems to be somewhat similar to Bai Shanzi."

"Peach Blossom?" Bai frowned.

"Tao Hua's aunt is the mother of our main courtyard, the mother of the car on the sweeper." You Ye's eyes flickered slightly.

After hearing this sentence, Bai's face showed joy, "Then hurry up and make friends with Mother Che."

Youye is a little reluctant, after all, a mother who is a rough envoy is not worth her making friends with.

Mrs. Bai probably understood Youye's thoughts, and said with a calm face: "We have to put eyeliner in Huaiyuan as soon as possible."

You Ye, who is her personal eldest girl, knows about Bai's matter.

Then, her heart trembled, "Does Master Qian have any clues?"

"Shut up!" Bai's heart was beating wildly at her words, "You girl, why are you talking so bald?"

Youye hurriedly begged for mercy, "I won't dare next time."

"There's another time!" Bai's raised eyebrows, his eyes full of frost.

Youye knelt down in fright.

Seeing this, Mrs. Bai finally felt a little more comfortable.

In fact, she is also guilty of being like this.After all, the relationship between Lord Qian and her was always kept secret.

As the dusk deepened, the noises of the maids walking outside the house became busier.

Bai knew that dinner was coming soon.

She glanced at the kneeling pomelo leaf, her eyes darkened a little.

Fearing that the girl would lose her mind, Bai Shi slowed down, coughed twice, and said in a calm tone: "Get up, in the future, just be more careful with your words. After all, I won't treat you badly."

Give a sweet date with a stick, and she makes it very smooth.

After hearing this, Youye really became happy. She glanced at Madam and saw that her face was calm, so she got up carefully.

"Ma'am, I'm going to talk to Mother Che right now." Youye said obediently.

Bai looked outside, "Let's not see each other today, tomorrow, you go and see what Miss and Master Biao are doing."

Youye didn't dare to say no, so she hurriedly nodded and went out.

In a place where Bai Shi could not see, Yuye let out a sigh, with a little contempt and anxiety in her eyes, and naturally she was also happy about the possible benefits.

Bai Shi didn't know her girl, but dared to despise her. At this moment, she was pinching the letter paper and setting it on fire.

In the faint light of the fire, the Shao family in this winter is doomed to be no longer peaceful, both openly and secretly.

The people in Huaiyuan, who didn't know where they were, were still rushing to do New Year's Embroidery work.

Today, after lunch break.

Shao Yunshi didn't want to do needlework anymore, so she leaned on the couch and read idle books.

Xiaodong was bored and begged his senior sister to tell him a story.

Ximei came in with tea and said mysteriously: "Miss, Bai Erniang said just now that Mrs. Qiao and Miss Qiao are at Commander Liao's house."

Shao Yunshi glanced at her inexplicably.

Ximei paused, "The Qiao family has come to Yangzhou, it's time for the old lady to lead you to visit."

"Going to Liao's house again?" Xiaodong frowned, "Everyone in that family has high vision, and when they meet each other, they always look arrogant, as if everyone else is inferior to them."

Xi Mei said disapprovingly, "What's the matter, it's the commander's mansion, so the young masters and ladies at home are naturally more proud."

"You—" Xiaodong rolled his eyes unhappily.

Ximei ignored her, and continued: "No one is condescending to our young lady, so don't worry about people who have nothing to do with you."

What she said made Shao Yunshi look up.
