Yu Youyao’s eyes were also red. She could originally hold back her tears, but as soon as she opened her mouth, tears rushed out of her eyes. “Grandmother, don’t cry. Little Yao’er has always been fine…”

How could she have a good life? What was good about living under her stepmother and stepsister? A child without a mother would suffer a lot no matter how much her grandmother doted on her.

No one could replace their biological mother.

How many people were there in the Yu Residence? All of them acted like humans in front of her, but there were ghosts behind her back. They were very

scheming It was difficult for her obedient Yao’er. She was already able to manage the family at such a young age. How many young misses had only learned some things about managing the household from their elders after they were engaged?

“My good Yao’er, I’ve been thinking about you for thirteen years. I’ve been looking forward to seeing you back.” Old Madam Xie pulled her granddaughter into her arms and wailed.

The little girl in her arms was thin and delicate. She did not take up much s.p.a.ce in her arms.

Back then, when Roujia pa.s.sed away, she followed the Old Master to the capital in a hurry. She was still a wrinkled little monkey even after being born for a few days.

Everyone said she would not be able to live for long.

A seven-month-old child had a higher chance of survival than eight months.

When Little Yao’er was born, it happened to be eight months and 29 days. It was one day away from nine months, but this difference of one day was also terrifying.

She held the wrinkled monkey in her arms and kept looking at it. She did not even dare to blink, afraid that such a thin little person would not grow.

Now that the grown-up girl was in her arms, she still felt uneasy. She kept feeling like she was dreaming.

“Grandmother…” The grandmother and granddaughter hugged each other and cried.

Old Madam Xie cried, “l won’t let you suffer in the future.”

The grandmother and granddaughter hugged each other and poured their hearts out. The 13 -year barrier between them had unknowingly collapsed.

This was Yu Youyao’s first time in Quanzhou. Auntie Xu was worried that she wouldn’t be used to the weather, so she personally went to the small kitchen to prepare light, nouris.h.i.+ng, and easily digestable medicinal porridge for lunch. She also prepared some appetizers.

After sitting on the boat for more than half a month, her feet finally landed on solid ground. However, she still felt that she was floating. Yu Youyao did not have much of an appet.i.te. She forced herself to eat some porridge and rested.

When she woke up, the Xie family had found a brilliant doctor to enter the residence to take her pulse.

Imperial Physician Hu still said the same thing. “She is overworked, causing her Qj and blood flow to be weak. Fortunately, her foundation is good and she is still young. She shouldn’t worry or tire herself out. She will be fine after recuperating for a while.”

Then, he prescribed a prescription.

In the afternoon, Yu Youyao’s luggage was transported into the residence one

after another.

Yin Huaixi and Xie Jingliu came to the Yi Water Garden.

Yin Huaixi walked around the Yi Water Garden and felt that his residence in Youzhou could be renovated. Due to the geographical conditions in the North, it was a little impossible to build a Suzhou-style garden. However, Youzhou was located in the north and was not far from Shanxi and Shaanxi. There was no lack of all kinds of stone and high-grade elm wood. He could spend more effort on increasing comfort.

Xie Jingliu glanced at him. “No matter what, you’re Little Yao’er’s cousin. You sent her all the way to Quanzhou and are also an important guest of our Xie Residence. Do you really not plan to stay in the Xie Residence for the time being?”

He deliberately emphasized the word “cousin”, and there was a hint of cold mockery in his tone.

Yin Huaixi pretended not to notice and shook his head. “I’ve bought a residence in Quanzhou. It’s only an alley away from the Xie Residence. 1 can reach it in an incense stick’s time by carriage. It’s not good to disturb the peace of the residence.’

Since he had even prepared a residence, it was obvious that he was not in a hurry to leave. Xie Jingliu sneered. “Why? Are you worried that our Xie family will treat Little Cousin badly?”

Yin Huaixi nodded and did not deny it. “Sending her back to Quanzhou was just a matter of interest. I had no choice. Compared to you, I trust myself more.”

Xie Jingliu was so angry that he closed his fan with a whoosh. “What do you mean by you don’t want to disturb the peace of the residence? Are you sure you’re not just being a coward?”

After bringing his cousin back to the Xie Residence, he definitely had to give Old Master an explanation.

The emperor was seriously ill, and this was a serious matter.

Ning Yuanbo and King Liang were also related, but they had an extraordinary relations.h.i.+p.

How could he not tell Old Master everything?

Once he was done, what would he say was the source of the news?

How could he not mention Yin Huaixi’s ident.i.ty?

If Old Master found out that Yin Huaixi, this dog, was coveting his young cousin, would he take a cane and break his legs?

How could Yin Huaixi not want to live in the Xie Residence?

It was obvious that he was taking preventive measures.

If it weren’t for his status, he would definitely have stayed in the Xie Residence so that he could be closer to his little cousin.

As expected, Yin Huaixi was timid and refused to admit it. “What are you saying? It’s Yao Yao’s first time in the Xie Residence, so she has to talk to her family more. How can l, an outsider, disturb her?” At this point, he changed the topic and looked sincere. “l haven’t seen the residence I’ve bought in Quanzhou yet. It still needs a few days to be arranged. When the residence is settled, I’ll send a greeting card to the residence. When the time comes, I’ll prepare a gift and officially visit. I can’t be rude in front of Old Master.”

These words angered Xie Jingliu. “You’re the only one who’s scheming.”

A few days later, no matter how angry Old Master was, he would have mostly calmed down. At this moment, Yin Huaixi would send a greeting card and prepare a generous gift to visit. Since he was polite, the Xie family had to give him some face.

Yin Huaixi did not acknowledge these words. If he did, it would be as if he was playing tricks in front of his elders, making it easy for others to gossip about him. “l sent Yao Yao over on behalf of the Yu Residence. Scholarly families are more particular and have more rules. We can’t be careless with our etiquette. I will send a greeting card and prepare a generous gift before visiting. Only then will I seem cautious.’

Xie Jingliu could only pinch his nose and endure it.

Before leaving, the Second Old Madam of the Yu Clan had indeed solemnly instructed her young master, Zhou Linghuai, to be polite when he arrived at the Xie Residence.

The reason why the Yu Clan was so cautious was also because her younger cousin represented them. This expressed how much the clan valued her. The Xie Residence didn’t know how important shew as to them.

Yin Huaixi continued, “Yu Shansi has also come to Quanzhou. He went to the residence earlier to settle down. I’m also worried about leaving him alone there and Yao Yao is likely not as ease too.”

Everyone from the Xie Residence hated Madam Yang. They would not vent their anger on Yu Shansi but they definitely did not like him.

Yu Shansi was also tactful. Along the way to Quanzhou, other than greeting Yu Youyao every day, he stayed in his room obediently.

Not only was it a good excuse, but it was also reasonable.

Xie Jingliu thought that he was eloquent, but when he met Yin Huaixi, he realized what it meant to have a glib tongue, It was said that Yin Huaixi had learned from Ghost Valley and could reverse Yin and Yang with his mouth, distorting right and wrong. Today, he experienced it.

When they entered the courtyard, Yin Huaixi immediately saw the purple elm tree in the courtyard. He suddenly felt that Yu Youyao might like the elm tree more than the Parasol Tree..
