Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the mention of her grandmother, Yu Youyao remembered that not long after her cousin had entered the residence, she had foolishly asked him to take the initiative to show him her notes.
At that time, her cousin had an indescribable expression. The word “disgust” was almost written on his face. She actually had the cheek to ask, “Cousin, how was my writing? Was it really bad?”
To think that her cousin could go against his conscience and say, “Not bad!” And she actually believed it.
Previously, she hadn’t thought much of it, but now that she thought about it,
Yu Youyao felt embarrassed. “A great teacher produces a brilliant disciple! ”
When Old Madam Yu heard this, she laughed. “That’s right. Just based on your cousin’s amazing ability to turn something rotten into something magical, I’m afraid even Heir Song will feel ashamed.”
Yu Youyao’s eyes widened. “Grandmother, just praise Cousin. Don’t mock me like this. Cousin even praised me for being smart.”
Old Madam Yu laughed until tears streamed down her face. “Only your cousin can control your temper.”
In front of Zhou Linghuai, someone whom Ms. Ye had not taught well became a talented woman.
Not to mention how good her zither and chess skills were, just her calligraphy alone was incomparable to any other girl of the same age.
It had to be known that she had only practiced calligraphy for half a year.
Yu Youyao stuck out her tongue and thought that it was impossible for her cousin to discipline her? He clearly indulged her more than her grandmother, but there was no need to specially tell her grandmother about the matter between her and her cousin!
Old Madam Yu put away the scriptures and said seriously, “I heard that you’ve been staying in the house often to copy scriptures. You’re just a little girl. You can’t do that.”
She had become a widow after her husband left. Her days were not easy, so she began to pay respects to Buddha and had something to rely on.
Yu Youyao quickly nodded. “I’m just copying scriptures to pray for
Grandmother and Cousin. I don’t have any other thoughts.”
Old Madam Yu was relieved and changed the topic. “By the way, the Mid-Autumn Festival is in a few days. In the past, our family would have to go to the restaurants on Chang’an Street to look at the lamps. However, this year is an eventful year. Your second aunt said that she will have a banquet in the second house and the entire family will join her. What do you think?”
The main family was the eldest branch, and her grandmother was also raised in the main family. During the holidays, the main family had to step in to manage it. Only then would it seem like they were brothers and respectful.
Previously, she had been in charge of the Dragon Boat Festival.
It was also because she was in charge of the main family that Second Aunt had made this suggestion. She had also considered that she was an elder, so it was not appropriate for her niece to always manage it.
Yu Youyao nodded. “That’s good too. On the day of the Mid -Autumn Festival, I’ll go to the second house early and help Second Aunt manage it. In addition, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be the second time we reunite. Do you think we should bring Third Sister back to the residence…”
Perhaps because she had lived a peaceful life for too long, Old Madam Yu subconsciously frowned when she heard this. “Send someone to pick her up tomorrow morning.”
Yu Jianjia had also stayed in the manor for a few months.
Every ten days, the family would send someone to deliver some food and clothes. Yu Jianjia did not live in the residence, so there were many inconveniences in the manor. Yao Yao made the decision to double Yu Jianjia’s food and clothes. In addition, the clan aunt took care of her from the side, so everything was appropriate, and it was not inferior to the residence.
Yu Jianjia took out a flower shed in the manor. Every day, she nurtured flowers, read books, copied Buddhist scriptures, and learned the rules from her aunt.
She did not even neglect her studies. Her days were peaceful, and her body had recovered a little.
Old Madam Yu let her be and did not bring her back.
Yu Youyao pondered for a moment and said, “Tomorrow, I’ll personally go to the manor to bring Third Sister home so that I can see how she’s doing.”
Yu Jianjia lived in the manor for a short period of time. Her family had given her a lot of things, and they cared about her a lot.
However, as the big sister, she should take a look.
“Alright, it’ll be more appropriate to bring a few more people over.” Old Madam Yu was unhappy. Not only was her granddaughter in charge of the family’s matters, but she also had to travel back and forth for Yu Jianjia.
Yu Youyao nodded and asked, “As for Mother and Fourth Sister…”
Old Madam Yu thought of Madam Yang and her expression did not look too good. “Your mother’s health isn’t good, so she’ll just recuperate in Tranquil Heart Residence. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a festive day. You can’t let your mother’s illness affect such a good day.”
Madam Yang’s head disease had been treated for so long, but she had not recovered.
Doctor Ding came to treat her a few times and only said that it was difficult to treat her heart disease. Later, he did not come anymore and her doctor in the family changed.
Although she had been treating it, she was still crazy and had not improved much.
It was better not to come out and cause trouble.
Then, Old Madam Yu frowned. “As for Fourth Miss, let’s have fun at home together. Let Nanny Jin follow.”
Yu Qingning had been spoiled by Madam Yang, and Concubine He had also spoiled her. If people’s hearts were crooked, they could still be changed. However, once they were raised, they would feel a difference in their hearts and lose their composure. It was impossible to change it. However, she was still her granddaughter after all. It was rare that she couldn’t be locked in the house for the Mid -Autumn Festival.

Old Madam Yu sighed slightly. “I wonder how many more years I can watch this peaceful scene.”
Yu Youyao agreed wholeheartedly.
As the two of them were talking, Qing Xiu entered the house. “Old Madam, Old
Madam Song, the Marquis’s wife is here.”
Old Madam Yu couldn’t help but be stunned. She quickly said, “Help me up.”
Yu Youyao immediately helped her grandmother up and quickly welcomed her.
As soon as she stepped out of the threshold, the Marquis’s wife helped Old Madam Song into the house.
Old Madam Yu looked reproachful. “You’re already so old. Why aren’t you staying at home and recuperating carefully? Why are you still coming to me?
Do you think your life is too long? Sit down…”
Yu Youyao instructed Qing Xiu to get a soft pillow and cushion it on the back of the chair.
Only then did Old Madam Song sit down. As soon as she leaned into the soft pillow, she felt a little more comfortable.
Yu Youyao changed the incense from the incense burner to an incense pill. She instructed Qing Xiu, “Go to Grandmother’s house and bring over some mulberry and honey pear paste. Make a cup for Grandmother Song.”
The mulberry and pear paste was moisturizing. The old man often felt that his throat was unclear, so it was still edible. Grandmother’s house also had it.
Qing Xiu received her orders and returned to the inner room.
Seeing that Yu Youyao was behaving appropriately, the Marquis’s wife’s smile deepened. “Look, Mingzhao woke up early this morning and even ate some porridge. Imperial Physician Shi said that Zhao was fine. When Old Madam was happy, she insisted on coming over personally to tell you the good news. She even wanted to thank you and Yao Yao in person. I couldn’t persuade her otherwise.”
The Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill had saved Mingzhao’s life, and the family was very grateful to the Yu Residence.
Old Madam had fainted yesterday, and it had been very dangerous. When she woke up, she said, “Yao Yao not only saved Mingzhao’s life, but also mine.” Only then did the family know that in the morning, Old Madam had felt suffocated. Even her body felt heavy. She felt uncomfortable and couldn’t move anymore..
