After the Republic of China

Chapter 97 Grievance
Shao Lanxiang treats Shao Yunshi like a mother.

Back in Yangzhou, she always wanted to take her eldest niece out for a walk, to see the world, and to relax.

It's a pity that Shao Diyuan's illness happened, and everyone in the Shao family became more peaceful.

Even Shao Lanxiang didn't get involved in foreign affairs, and only went out frequently when her nephew was safe.

Shao Lanxiang felt guilty when she thought that she had pulled her niece out and then slipped her tongue.

Then, she took Shao Yunshi's hand, and said apologetically, "I've wronged you, these days it's not peaceful at home, and it's not peaceful outside, so my aunt didn't take you out."

Shao Lanxiang's words can be regarded as nonsense.

In fact, both uncle and nephew knew that Shao Diyuan's illness started in Huaiyuan, and it had already hindered Mrs. Shao's eyes.

With another Bai family muttering beside her, how could Shao Yunshi live a stable life.

In the past few days, when Shao Yunshi went to pay her respects, she really got a lot of cold eyes.

Shao Diyuan is the only grandson of the Shao family, and his status in the Shao family is self-evident.

As soon as something happened to him, Shao Lanxiang immediately asked Mother Suo to protect some Shao Yunshi, in order to prevent the old lady Shao from venting her anger.

Sure enough, Mrs. Shao regained her composure and immediately lost her temper.

Fortunately, there was Suo's mother who persuaded her, and Shao Lanxiang took care of her.Otherwise, Shao Yunshi is either copying scriptures to pray for her younger brother, or doing more needlework.

Shao Lanxiang came here not only for foreign affairs, but also to appease her, and even more to apologize for not being able to take her out.

Shao Yunshi knew what her aunt was thinking, and looked at her with a smile, she was as gentle as before, "Don't worry, aunt, I know there is chaos outside, I just happen to be lazy, so I have no choice but to go out."

The child was sensible, and Shao Lanxiang felt even more sad. A child without a mother is indeed painful.

Shao Lanxiang, who lost her composure, hurriedly turned her head slightly, blinked her eyes, and said again: "Today, I really have something to ask us to hide from my aunt."

Just as I was talking, Ximei came to treat me to dinner.

Shao Yunshi accepted her aunt's words, and helped her aunt into the small dining room.

After entering the open hall, Shao Lanxiang didn't smell the faint warm fragrance anymore, and the room was filled with the smell of food.

She happened to be hungry, so she said bluntly: "If we have something to say, let's talk about it after dinner. I'm really hungry right now."

Shao Yunshi knew that her aunt was not really hungry, after all the old lady didn't have any snacks in the yard.When my aunt said that, it was just to show her closeness.

Touched in her heart, Shao Yunshi also showed a big smile on her face, and said: "Well, I'm also hungry, and I just ordered Er Niang to make a special soup to warm my stomach today."

Shao Lanxiang was not used to medicinal dishes, so she quickly waved her hands and said, "I can't eat your stomach-warming soup, so I'll just eat some golden shredded rolls, steamed buns and rouge porridge."

While talking, she pointed to the small steaming drawer on the table.

Shao Yunshi's food is exquisite, and there are not many dishes.It only rotates every day, and today it happens to be soup-filled steamed buns and golden silk rolls.Side dishes are optional.

Shao Lanxiang hadn't eaten anything good, so she ordered these two after a quick scan just now, but she sat down and took a closer look, and felt a little uncomfortable.

She didn't know that her niece was used to simplicity and delicacy, and she thought that she had been wronged at home. There were only a few staple foods and simple side dishes on a dining table, which was too much.

So, she still pulled Shao Yunshi, looked at Ximei who was serving at the side, and asked, "Is it too late to do it in the morning, or just too lazy? Why are there only so few dishes?"

Seeing that her aunt was a little angry, Shao Yunshi hurriedly took over the conversation and said, "My aunt doesn't know me yet, she is most afraid of trouble, that's enough."

Her words drew a sharp look from her aunt.

Knowing that aunt was angry, Shao Yunshi hurriedly said again: "Auntie, I don't eat much, I only order a few of what I like to eat, and I will switch to other things tomorrow, it's not that Erniang and the others are lazy. "

This word?Shao Lanxiang didn't look at her niece, only Ximei.

In fact, Ximei was most afraid of the little aunt of the Shao family. Being stared at by her, she didn't dare to find any excuses, so she said, "It's all the list made by the young lady the day before, and the second mother followed suit."

These words are straightforward and concise, but they are called Shao Lan Xiangxin.

Then, she waved Ximei back, and then said to the niece at the side: "In your own home, you don't have to be so simple, everything depends on me and your grandfather."

Sighing, she said again: "Besides, even if the old lady is strict, she doesn't care about it."

It's too late to answer these words, Shao Yunshi said a little bit dumbfoundingly: "Auntie, I really don't like complicated things, so I told Erniang to do this. In one, don't I know about my grandmother's temperament? You don't have to worry about it."

After finishing speaking, she was still afraid that Shao Lanxiang would not believe her, so she said: "Our family fires on its own, and I'm not the one who doesn't earn money, how can I wrong myself?"

This remark made Shao Lanxiang, who had been secretly annoyed, her mind cleared up, but no, Shao Lanxiang didn't dare to say that she was rich compared to Ligu.

After all, these words were a bit embarrassing, the aunt and nephew smiled and ate breakfast without saying a word.

Ximei, who was guarding the outside of the open hall, saw that the uncle and nephew inside had eaten, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiaodong also came over, but her mouth was not idle, she was gnawing on a white and fat bun.

Seeing her skinny skin, Xi Mei glared at her angrily, and said in a low voice: "You also restrain yourself, don't be heartless."

Xiaodong was naturally a little worried about the little aunt of the Shao family, so he swallowed the steamed stuffed bun obediently, nodded and said, "You are so hungry, I brought you a small roll as well."

Ximei looked at the small roll in Xiaodong's hand, shook her head hurriedly and said, "Eat it yourself, I'm not hungry yet..."

Just as he was talking, Xiaodong stopped Ximei suddenly, and said in a low voice, "Brother Feihong is here, I'll go outside to pick him up."

Xiaodong's personality has always been that the wind is the rain.

However, she never said anything.

Facing the occasional wind from the outside, Ximei looked at Xiaodong's back and thought of Feihong who hadn't shown up for several days. Now that he's here, it seems that the matter has a clue, and she is relieved.

In fact, not to mention that she is anxious about witchcraft, even Miss, she knows that she is also worried about it day and night.

The aunt and nephew in the room have been working hard for a while, and they have almost eaten, after all, they are both people with small appetites.

Shao Lanxiang took the hot handkerchief handed over by Ximei, and said, "I'll ask Xiaocui to bring you some blood swallows later. It's good for your health if you get up early in winter and drink a bowl."

When Shao Yunshi heard about the bird's nest, her head grew bigger. She herself is not used to drinking that stuff.In her previous life's family, she ate too much, and now she feels a little nauseous when she hears it.

Then, she hurriedly stopped her and said, "Don't give me this, aunt, but I have to give some to aunt."

Shao Lanxiang looked at her strangely, "Are you talking to me, it can be seen that you are still as picky as you were when you were a child."

Seeing her aunt misunderstood, Shao Yunshi hurriedly explained: "No, Uncle Bu went to Qingdao to deliver New Year's goods, and brought back a lot of food, not to mention sea cucumbers, abalones, and shark's fins, but also a lot of golden silk bird's nests from Nanyang. .I'm packing up and I'm going to send some to everyone."
