227 Even If I’m Not Sick, I’ll Get Sick From Holding It In

“It’s my fault for speaking carelessly and making you feel uncomfortable for no reason.” Hui Xiang suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out that Miss was worried about Madam.

It was also because she had forgotten that Madam had previously instructed her to tell Young Miss as little about the residence as possible in the future, in case Young Miss worried and got in the way.

Yu Jianjia lowered her head. There was a ball of ink on the snow-white paper, which was really dazzling. She crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the wastebasket.

She laid out a new piece of paper and wrote a few words. Then, the phrase that Yu Youyao had written appeared in her mind again. For some reason, she felt that the small handwriting that she had been so proud of was too feminine.

Yu Jianjia frowned slightly. “When Cousin Zhou first came to the residence, where did you keep the calligraphy notes that he gave me? Go and find them!”

It had to be admitted that Zhou Linghuai’s handwriting was indeed very good. Even Yu Youyao, who had been writing like a dog for a short period of time, managed to write well.

Hui Xiang was stunned again and found the notes as instructed.

Yu Jianjia slowly opened the notes. Zhou Linghuai’s writing was not sharp, but it revealed an astonis.h.i.+ng aura.

She spread the copy on the desk, re-laid the paper, dipped it in ink, and copied the words accordingly.

She had practiced calligraphy for many years, so copying was not difficult for her. A smile gradually appeared on Yu Jianjia’s lips. If Yu Youyao could do it, so could she.

However, after writing a hundred words, Yu Jianjia’s nose was covered in sweat. Her wrist was sore and soft. With a shake of her wrist, another large drop of ink fell.

She bit her lip and looked down at the words she had written.

The handwriting was very similar to Zhou Linghuai’s, and there was also a feminine aura between the words. It was superficial and did not have any aura. It was far inferior to Yu Youyao’s.

Not everyone could practice calligraphy, and not everyone could learn it well.

Seeing that Young Miss was in a bad mood, Hui Xiang subconsciously said, “Young Miss, Young Master Zhou is just a cripple who came to visit. He’s just a piece of trash. Why are you suddenly…”

However, this cripple, who she did not think much of, had turned the once stupid and useless Yu Youyao into a scholarly woman.

Not only was she better than her in school, but she was also better than her mother when it came to managing the family. Now, she even had good calligraphy skills and was learning the zither…

Yu Jianjia stared at Hui Xiang and said in a soft voice, “Is it because I’ve always been too indulgent with you that you dare to say anything in front of me?”

Hui Xiang panted and couldn’t help but feel gooseb.u.mps all over her body. It was as if there was a slippery poisonous snake wrapped around her body, constantly tightening. Young Miss’s words were like a snake’s tongue that was flicking out. As she swallowed, she let out a soft sound and knelt on the ground with a thud. “Young Miss, I was careless with my words. I was wrong. I won’t dare to do it again…”

Yu Jianjia’s delicate and fair lips were as gentle as a flower, but they were so cold that there was no warmth at all. “Get up. This won’t happen again!”

Hui Xiang quickly stood up and looked up. Miss was still the delicate and polite Miss from before.

When she thought about how she had not only been taught a lesson by Eldest Miss, but also made things difficult for her, she felt a little ashamed.

Young Master Zhou was a cripple who had come to visit her, but he was still a young master after all. He was not someone a servant like her could interfere with. Young Miss had always been kind and polite. If she heard this, she would definitely be unhappy.

Seeing that Hui Xiang was still standing there, Yu Jianjia was a little unhappy. “Aren’t you going out?”

Hui Xiang reacted and was about to leave, but she couldn’t help but say, “Old Madam has made the decision. She wants Madam to arrange for Lady Qiu to be a concubine. The news has already spread throughout the residence…”

Yu Jianjia suddenly tightened her grip on the pen in her hand. The old madam had punished Mu Jin and had also mentioned that Lady Qiu would be a concubine. Clearly, she knew about Mother’s scheme in the residence today had completely angered her.

As for her father…

Yu Jianjia suddenly felt like she couldn’t breathe. The words “Yu Youyao” had never pressed down on her so clearly before, making her feel a sense of panic that she couldn’t shake off.

Yu Jianjia felt dizzy and fell into a chair, her face as pale as paper.

Hui Xiang was shocked and rushed over. “Young Miss, Young Miss…”

Yu Jianjia’s heart felt suffocated. The strong palpitation made her heart ache. She panted, “Medicine, medicine…”

Hui Xiang immediately understood that Young Miss was having an attack. She panicked. “The medicine that Young Miss is taking is being boiled on the stove every day. I’ll get someone to bring it over immediately.”

Hui Xiang shouted for Ai Ye.

Ai Ye hurried into the house. Before she could react, Hui Xiang asked her to get the medicine. When Ai Ye heard this, she ran as fast as she could, not daring to delay.

“I sent someone to find Madam…” As Hui Xiang spoke, she pressed the acupuncture points on Miss’s hand.

This was a method taught by the doctor who treated Miss every day. Ten fingers were connected to the heart. When Miss’s illness acted up, pressing the acupuncture points on her hand could relieve her illness.

“No need.” Yu Jianjia was a little breathless, but the situation wasn’t too serious. Thinking that today was Yu Youyao’s birthday and her mother had suffered a loss at her grandmother’s hands and even her father probably knew about this…

If she fell sick at this time, wouldn’t it be obvious that she was looking for trouble with Yu Youyao?

Fortunately, Imperial Physician Hu’s medicine was effective. After taking the medicine and resting for a while, she would be fine.

Zhou Linghuai was reading in the study. The little girl was busy today and would only see him at night when it was time for the family banquet. He put away the book in his hand and felt that the room was cold. He was actually not used to it.

During this period of time, the little girl would come to the Green House every day to accompany him. He was really used to it.

Shaking his head, Zhou Linghuai put away the distracting thoughts in his mind. Thinking that the little girl had been learning The a.n.a.lects recently, he planned to write annotations and send it to her. This way, it wouldn’t be difficult to learn it, and the little girl would be able to learn more and even have more fun.

The little girl was delicate and lazy, but he was unwilling to let her be a spinning top all day and not have any free time.

Zhou Linghuai took a copy of The a.n.a.lects from the bookshelf and returned to his desk. He picked out a fine brush and dipped it in ink. Then, he covered his ears and a smile appeared on his pale lips.

He looked up at the door.

As expected, he saw the little girl run into the study with her skirt in hand. In a daze, he realized that ever since the little girl ran into the Green House, he actually had the habit of not closing the door.

“Cousin, why do you always stay in the study every day? Aren’t you bored?!” Yu Youyao pouted and s.n.a.t.c.hed the fine brush from her cousin’s hand. She placed it on the pen and closed The a.n.a.lects that he had just turned a page of. “You’ll get sick even if you’re not sick. Cousin, you’re already so old. Why don’t you take good care of yourself?”
