Chapter 585 To maintain her face is to maintain the face of the Shao family
Back in the study, Shao Lin picked up the phone and called the bamboo weaving factory.
After dialing all the calls, he realized that it was past 10 o'clock, and the bamboo weaving factory was off work. He was hesitating whether to hang up, and the call was connected.
Listening to Huang Zhiqiu's familiar and gentle voice, Shao Lin secretly coughed, "It's me, Zhiqiu. It's so late and you haven't got off work yet?"
"I'm off work, I'm waiting for Momo's call, so I haven't returned to the dormitory yet."
"It's so late, will you go back alone?"
"No, Xiaoyu and I are together, he is counting the goods in the warehouse."
"That's good. Momo just went back. We had dinner with mom at night. Mom likes Momo very much."
After hearing this, Huang Zhiqiu couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief.
When the plane arrived in the capital, her daughter reported her safety, but she still couldn't let it go, worrying that her daughter would be bullied and disliked at Shao's house.
Knowing that she was still waiting for her daughter to call, Shao Lin didn't say too much, and after a few simple chats, he took the initiative to end the call.
As soon as Shao Lin hung up on the other end, Yun Mo hit him on the other end.
Huang Zhiqiu picked it up immediately, "Hello, Momo?"
"It's me, Mom, who did you call just now? I called twice and the line was busy."
Huang Zhiqiu smiled, "Who else is there? Your dad said that Mrs. Shao likes you very much. Is it true?"
"Of course it is true. Your daughter is smart and beautiful. Everyone loves flowers. How could grandma not like me?"
Huang Zhiqiu was amused by her self-selling and boasting, and completely let go of the worries in her heart, but she still couldn't help admonishing her, such as respecting elders, being humble to peers, and getting along with sisters and brothers in harmony, etc.
Yunmo responded, but she thought in her heart that it would be best for her cousins to live in harmony with her, otherwise, she would not mind "convincing others with virtue".
In her previous life, she was a top wealthy young lady. In addition to her talents in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, self-defense skills were also one of the must-learn lessons for her since she was a child.
Although she can't beat a strong man like Ling Chuan, it's still easy for her to deal with a weakling like Shao Yixuan.
Put down the phone, Yunmo looked up and saw Ling Chuan standing a few steps away.
"Daughter-in-law, have you finished talking to Mom?"
"You want to call?"
The two spoke almost simultaneously.
Ling Chuan nodded, "I want to call my brother to report his safety."
"Then you call, I'll go back to my room to wash up."
Having already taken a shower in the afternoon, Yunmo simply washed off the sweat from her body with hot water, changed into dry pajamas, and went to bed.
She was too sleepy in the afternoon and didn't pay much attention. Now that she was awake, she realized that the bed was the same style as the one she had in Jiang City. The only difference was that the material was more expensive and high-end.
Presumably, it was because she was afraid that she would not be used to sleeping, so someone specially prepared the same bed. Shao Lin, a father, really had nothing to say to her daughter.
While sighing, Ling Chuan came back.
Yunmo sat on the bed and looked at him, "Brother at home, are they alright?"
"Um."
Seeing the man undressed and about to go to bed, Yunmo stepped over with one foot, "Go take a shower!"
Ling Chuan paused, looking at her with dark eyes, "I just finished washing, when you were on the phone in the living room."
"Oh, go to sleep and turn off the lights."
Yunmo retracted her legs, covered herself with a thin quilt and lay down.
After she lay down, Ling Chuan got up and turned off the light, and lay beside her silently.
Maybe because he slept for a long time in the afternoon, Yunmo didn't feel sleepy after lying down for a long time, but Ling Chuan, because he didn't rest in the afternoon, already fell into a deep sleep and snored slightly.
Compared to other men, Ling Chuan's sleeping appearance is not bad, he lays flat and stable, doesn't grind his teeth, doesn't drool, and doesn't snore, only occasionally when he is extremely tired, he will snore slightly.
Yunmo changed her side-lying position, and under the soft moonlight outside the window, she stared at the man's handsome and three-dimensional side face in a daze.
Maybe it was too boring, she couldn't help but have a whim, wanted to wake the man up, and asked her if she had ever snored while sleeping.
Of course, Yunmo didn't do that in the end.
Rationally, it is immoral to wake up other people's dreams, but emotionally, she is a little reluctant to wake him up.
Before she knew it, this man had taken root and sprouted in her heart, and maybe one day he would grow into a towering tree, and no one would regret it.
After being dazed for a while, Yunmo simply submerged her consciousness into the second layer of space to look at the apples, watermelons and orchids she planted.

"Dad, haven't you rested so late?"
East courtyard, Shao Yiqian looked at Shao Yuan who came to knock on his door in pajamas, with a slight surprise on his face.
"Seeing that the light is on in your room, come over and talk to you."
Shao Yiqian let Shao Yuan into the room, "School is about to start, I am reviewing the content of the third year of high school."
Shao Yiqian is one year younger than Yunmo, and is promoted by three this year.
Shao Yuan is very satisfied with his son's self-discipline and self-awareness, and there is a bit of concern in his eyes, "Although studies are important, the body cannot be ignored, and we should also pay attention to rest on time."
"Well, I understand. Dad, what do you want from me?"
Shao Yuan thought for a moment before opening his mouth, "I've already heard about what happened in the afternoon. Your uncle has only one daughter, and she is one year older than you. In front of outsiders, you should respect her and defend her when necessary. It doesn't matter, she is the daughter of the Shao family just like Ah Ying, and if you protect her face, you are protecting the face of the Shao family, understand?"
Shao Yiqian nodded solemnly, and at the same time understood what his father meant.
Yunmo, like Shao Ying, is a girl, and she can't pose any threat to him. If they get along well, they may become his help in the future.
"Dad, how is Shao Yi'an doing now? Does uncle really leave him alone?"
Shao Yuan snorted lightly, "It's time to take care of it, it won't wait until now, the Public Security Bureau dares to arrest people, it must be through with your uncle in advance.
I secretly found someone to send news to the families who had quarreled with Shao Yi'an before. They will not let go of this great opportunity for revenge. "
Shao Yi'an was spoiled by Yuan Jia, and relying on Shao Lin's identity to be domineering, he had feuds with many rich children in the capital.
Now without Shao Lin's backing, it's no wonder those rich kids don't trample him to death.
Shao Yuan patted his son on the shoulder encouragingly, "He was not your opponent in the past, and he will not be able to compare with you in the future. Yiqian, you are the one who dominates the younger generation no matter in terms of seniority or ability and conduct. It has lived up to our expectations.”
"Well, Dad, I will try to prove it to you."

In the early morning, when the sun was just showing its sharp corners, Madam Shao carefully watered the flowers and plants in the yard with a water bottle.
"Mom, are you busy early in the morning?"
Looking at her son's excited face, Mrs. Shao wondered, "Why did you come here so early in the morning?"
