All Hail Cousin Brother Chapter 273 – 273 Become a Joke

273 Become a Joke

Her self-blame made Yang Shuwan’s heart ache and she was angry. “What did you do wrong? Yu Youyao caused a commotion with Seventh Miss Cao, causing you to slip and fall. Not only did she lose her status in front of the young misses, but she also sprained her ankle. It’s true that Yu Youyao suffered, but not only did you suffer, you were also injured and suffered.”

At this point, she reacted.

The reason why Jia Jia had sprained her ankle and suffered was all because Yu Youyao and Seventh Miss Cao had caused trouble and implicated Jia Jia.

Yu Youyao had suffered a little, but Jia Jia had even sprained her ankle.

As long as Jia Jia’s ankle was sprained, Master would dote on her and feel sorry for her. Why would he blame them?!

No matter how much Old Madam doted on Yu Youyao, she couldn’t ignore her injured granddaughter at all.

Her feet were soaked in cold water, and soon, a chill seeped into her bones. Yu Jianjia coughed and said, “Mother, don’t be angry. As a stepmother, you can’t surpass a ‘mother’. As a second wife, you can’t surpass your first wife either. Eldest Sister was criticized for her upbringing because she was the eldest daughter of a bereaved wife. Even outside, it’s not appropriate for you to say anything.” She lowered her eyes, her bones feeling cold and painful. “Father has always respected Mother. Even though he accepted Lady Qiu, he didn’t forget that Mother is virtuous and magnanimous. You can’t be angry with Father and explain it to him.”

At the mention of Lady Qiu, Yang Shuwan couldn’t help but recall that the second day after Lady Qiu mentioned Concubine Qiu, Yu Zongzheng had left the government office. When he found out that she had a headache, he didn’t even go to the study. He went to the main courtyard to visit her and gave her an emerald hairpin to please her. The hairpin was completely green, but there was a touch of bright red on the hairpin. It was extremely pure.

She could clearly see the guilt in Yu Zongzheng’s eyes.

That night, Yu Zongzheng rested in her room.

Yang Shuwan reacted and held her daughter’s hand. Finally, a smile appeared on her face. “My Jia Jia’er is indeed an understanding woman. You’re right. They can’t blame me for this either way.” At this point, a smile appeared on her face. “Don’t worry about Mother anymore. I’ve been married to your father for many years. He’s always on my side.”

It was only when Jia Jia mentioned it that she remembered that Yu Zongzheng had taken in a newcomer and felt guilty towards her. She could use a little to manipulate him.

Yu Jianjia was finally relieved. However, when she thought of Yu Youyao’s words and actions at the flower festival today, for some reason, she felt suffocated.

The carriage returned to the residence.

Madam Yao had just alighted from the carriage with Yu Youyao and Yu Shuangbai when she saw Qing Xiu, who was waiting in front of the flower gate, step forward and bow. “Old Madam has invited Second Madam over. Eldest Master and Second Master are both there.” She took a look and saw that there were two carriages parked in front of the flower gate. “First Madam didn’t return with Second Madam?”

Madam Yao said calmly, “After receiving Second Master’s message, it’s not good to continue delaying. Seeing that Eldest Sister-in-law was talking to the Marquis of Changxing’s wife, she brought Yao Yao away first.”

“Thank you, Second Madam.” Qing Xiu thought about Old Madam’s instructions and looked at Eldest Miss. Seeing that Eldest Miss was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Eldest Miss and Second Miss are tired. Go back and rest first.”

The matter at the Flower Festival involved the Yu Residence, and it was not a small matter. Madam Yao knew the severity of the matter. She quickly instructed Nanny Qian and followed Qing Xiu to An Shou Hall.

Yu Youyao also returned to the Jade Courtyard.

Nanny Xu brought Chun Xiaoxiao and Xia Tao to treat their injuries.

Dong Mei had received the news early in the morning and ordered the kitchen to prepare hot water to help Yu Youyao wash up and change into comfortable clothes.

Yu Youyao leaned lazily against the consort bed.

Liu’er took a towel and helped Young Miss twist her hair. “First Madam and Third Miss have returned to the residence. First Madam asked Qing Xiu to enter Old Madam’s courtyard. Third Miss sprained her ankle at the flower festival. Nanny Li took First Madam’s token and went to invite Imperial Physician Li. It seems that she’s seriously injured.”

Yu Youyao smiled when she heard this.

Yu Jianjia always acted as if she was aloof from worldly affairs and was polite in every way, but she was proud and arrogant.

At the flower festival today, Yu Jianjia had used her familiarity with flowers to befriend many noble ladies. She was finally in the limelight.

Yu Jianjia fell in public and lost her composure.

Due to Lu Mingyao and Cao Yingxue’s noble statuses, the young misses present did not dare to mock them openly. However, once they left the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence, they would definitely be criticized and laughed at.

This great limelight had become a joke.

Yu Youyao’s lips curled up slightly. “In a while, pick a bottle of top-notch medicinal oil, some medicinal herbs and supplements and send them to the courtyard.”

Liu’er agreed. Seeing that most of Young Miss’s hair had dried, she took out high-quality jasmine head oil and poured a drop size of a copper coin into her palm. Then, she rubbed it evenly and gently applied it on Young Miss’s hair.

The jasmine oil was light and not dry or oily. It was refreshing and smooth.

About ten minutes later, Liu’er was done applying the hair oil. Yu Youyao’s hair was already dry. Liu’er took a wooden comb and combed Young Miss’s hair and tied it with a headband.

At this moment, Xia Tao ran into the house.

As soon as Yu Youyao saw her, she asked, “Have your injuries been treated?”

Xia Tao stuck out her tongue. “It’s just a few bumps. I’ll be fine after applying the medicine.” After saying that, she quickly changed the topic. “Young Master is here. He’s waiting for Young Miss in the small study.”

Yu Youyao suddenly got up from the bed, picked up her skirt, and ran towards the study.

Zhou Linghuai held the book in his hand, but he couldn’t read a single word. His mind was filled with a glimpse of the bright redness at the end of the little girl’s eyes.

She was just a young child, but she had been scolded by someone in public. How could she not feel terrible?

Zhou Linghuai’s eyes were deep. He tightened his grip on the book in his hand and saw the little girl run into the study with the hem of her dress. She was wearing a pink and purple half-arm shirt and a pleated skirt. There was a large patch of pink and white roses embroidered on the skirt. She looked pink, delicate, innocent and charming.

“Cousin, what are you thinking about?” Yu Youyao moved over and sat beside her cousin. Her voice was as cheerful as before. “You’re holding the book upside down!”

The little girl looked up and her oval face was bright. Zhou Linghuai had been thinking about it carefully repeatedly, and then editing his comforting words. Suddenly, they were useless.

Looking at the little girl’s smiling lips, he also chuckled. “I’m thinking that a little girl is very delicate and angry. She can’t take anger or grievances. I wonder if she’ll cry if she’s bullied!”
