After the Republic of China

Chapter 986 Affection
Yu Qian, an old agent who has been hiding for many years, has a cold and cold character in his bones.

When he asked questions, even to his close subordinates, he unnaturally exercised scrutiny and intimidation.

Da Huang straightened his back subconsciously and shook his head, "I didn't leave any information about Miss Shao. I don't think those people will check it."

“I hope so.” Yu Qian was a little worried. “You did a good job. I’ll give you a reward later.”

Da Huang chuckled twice, "Don't worry about it, brother. Miss Shao has given us a return gift."

Yu Qian shook his head with a smile, "She still has so many gifts, did you accept them?"

Da Huang talked about the gifts Ximei brought and what she brought. At the end, he said, "These are local specialties. I can't say anything, so I can only accept them."

Yu Qian glared at him and said, "This local specialty is not cheap. Forget it, just take it. I think Yunshi really doesn't care about this."

Thinking about it, Yu Qian was happy that Shao Yunshi was so considerate in sending him local specialties, and felt that she didn't treat him as an outsider.

Da Huang was relieved to see that his elder brother was not angry. "Brother, Miss Shao is about to graduate from college. Shouldn't you hurry up?"

Yu Qian didn't have the habit of sharing his secrets with his subordinates, but there was still something special between him and Da Huang.

Then, he sighed: "I'm afraid my case is simply impossible." When he said this, his eyes were full of sadness and regret.

Da Huang said anxiously: "How can it be impossible? Aren't we getting along well?"

In the past two years, we have all been in Shanghai, and we have given each other gifts during festivals and holidays.

Yu Qian pinched his brows and said, "I am much older than Yunshi."

"What's the big deal? Nowadays, there are many old men with young wives." Da Huang said, and slapped his mouth. "Big brother is not too old."

"You don't understand. If Yunshi hadn't come to Shanghai to study, maybe I would still have a chance. But now she is too dazzling. I can't even dream of her." Yu Qian hesitated because he found out that Shao Yunshi had no interest in him.

Da Huang thought of what Mr. Yu in Yangzhou had done to the Shao family, and felt that perhaps his eldest brother had no chance in Yangzhou, but now that he had come to Shanghai, he had the opportunity.

But seeing his elder brother's exhausted face, he swallowed the words that were about to come out and sighed: "Miss Shao hasn't graduated yet, there is still time."

Yu Qian could only hold on to such extravagant hopes and waved his hand, "It's working hours now, let's not talk about this anymore, just get busy."

Dahuang didn't dare to say anything else and left quickly.

As soon as he left, Yu Qian stood in front of the window irritably, looking at the busy street with a lonely look on his face.

Compared to the quietness of Yu Qian's place, Shao Mansion is very lively.

In a flash, a few days passed.

Old Madam Yan also stayed here for a few days.

Early in the morning, the elderly who couldn't sleep got up.

"Old sister, do you have any plans for today?" Old Madam Yan, who was friendly with everyone, was in a very good mood.

Madam Lu also had a favorable impression of Madam Yan. "I don't have any plans. What are you doing?"

Old Madam Yan smiled and said, "My son said that he wanted to invite everyone to have a gathering at the Yan Mansion."

Yan Liping has already gathered with everyone and invited guests. This time, he wants to invite everyone to his home.

Close relatives and friends do need to host a banquet at home, and this is also Yan Liping’s attitude towards accepting the Lu family as a relative.

Several people in the Lu family felt his intention.

Madam Lu looked at the old man, "Are you okay?"

Mr. Lu shook his head, "We looked at the house yesterday and arranged everything. It doesn't matter if we don't go today." Mrs. Lu nodded, "Just leave Zhaodi to decorate the house, and we'll go to her aunt's house to play."

Old Madam Yan said hurriedly, "Just give the house to the young people. My nephew knows a lot about these things. Just give it to him and let Zhaodi go and play with him."

Yan Biao has been accompanying several elderly people these days and has acted as a qualified guide.

Mr. Lu also praised the young man, "It's really good to have him around."

Having made up her mind, Old Madam Yan hurried to make a phone call.

Madam Lu looked at the anxious Madam Yan and said with a smile, "The Shao family's young aunt and this old aunt have similar personalities."

Mr. Lu nodded and said, "Our family is safe and sound, thanks to the presence of their aunt and nephew."

"In that case, we have to prepare expensive gifts." said Mrs. Lu.

Mr. Lu said, "We have to prepare a valuable gift. First, to thank him for taking care of us. Second, he is not the biological son of this old lady. We have to give her enough face."

Old Madam Lu also lamented the fate of Old Madam Yan, who was ultimately lacking something because she had not given birth to a child.

The elders in the family wanted to go to Yan Mansion, and seeing that they were getting along well, Shao Yunshi did not go with them.

After all, the Lu Mansion in Shanghai has to be decorated quickly, as future exchanges between the Lu family and Hong Kong will depend on this place.

The elders also knew that young children did not like to be restrained, so no one forced Shao Yunshi to go with them.

After seeing off the three old men, Shao Yunshi called Yan Biao.

Fortunately Yan Biao was at home, otherwise it would be difficult for her to find him.

"A Biao, do you have anything to do today?" Shao Yunshi asked.

The weather was hot, Yan Biao was dressed casually, lying on the sofa, picking up an apple and starting to eat it, "It's okay, what do you want me to do?"

Although Yan Biao is a little tired of accompanying the old man these days, he lives comfortably and does not have to worry about his life, so he is a little reluctant to leave.

Seeing how comfortable he looked, Shao Yunshi knew that he was living happily there and felt relieved.

However, Yan Biao's expression, as if to say, "Just tell me if you have anything to say," made her laugh and cry.

"It's nothing specific. My mother just wants to buy furniture for her house. Do you know anyone there?" Shao Yunshi asked directly.

Yan Biao is now very familiar with doing business.

Hearing this, his eyes turned, "Are you doing me a favor?"

Shao Yunshi said unhappily, "I don't have any help. Come on, tell me if you can help me."

Yan Biao treated Shao Yunshi as his best friend and sister, so he didn't say anything polite. He said directly, "I was originally busy, but now that you've asked, I have to make time even if I don't have time."

"Hey, what have you been busy with? I can't find you." Shao Yunshi has always wanted to ask.

Yan Biao glanced at the morning paper on the coffee table and asked, "Didn't you read the news?"

Shao Yunshi asked back, "You often attend literary gatherings, do you have anything to say?"

Yan Biao said to Shao Yunshi, "At the literary conference, everyone was shouting loudly, but unfortunately, the authorities were deaf and only knew how to fight among themselves. They didn't have any strategy to deal with the enemy at all."

Shao Yunshi thought of the Japanese becoming more and more arrogant, and her face turned cold. "Yes, people are arrested every day outside, but the Japanese are showing off their power in our territory. Now, everyone hides when they see the Japanese."

There are Japanese expatriates in Shanghai, and their attitude towards the Chinese is very bad.

Yan Biao's face darkened. "If the National Government takes action against the Japanese, I will join the army. Now that things are going on, I really don't have the energy to go to school."
