All Hail Cousin Brother Chapter 340 – 340 Coughing Blood

340 Coughing Blood

Yu Youyao agreed and instructed, “Third Miss is seriously ill. Imperial Physician Hu has instructed that you have to calm your mind and nourish your blood and Qi. Don’t think too much. From today onwards, seal the courtyard door. There’s no need to tell Third Miss about the matters in the residence. Let her rest in peace.”

This was a disguised grounding!

It was also an indefinite restriction!

When the seal was unsealed depended on Yu Youyao’s words.

Yu Jianjia couldn’t stand it anymore. She staggered into the house with the old woman and couldn’t help but cough violently.

She quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

The two old maids were indeed quick to react. One of them hurriedly helped her to the bed, while the other had already brought over warm water.

Yu Jianjia barely held back her coughing and took off the handkerchief that was covering her mouth. Immediately, the handkerchief was shockingly red and dazzling.

She coughed up blood!

The two old maids were also shocked. One hurriedly served Yu Jianjia some water, while the other ran off to look for Eldest Miss and report this matter.

Yu Youyao was also a little surprised. She did not expect Yu Jianjia to cough up blood. She quickly said, “Imperial Physician Hu’s carriage has probably just left the residence. Hurry up and chase him back to treat Third Sister.”

The old woman quickly ran out.

Yu Youyao did not go into Yu Jianjia’s house. She sat in the hall and waited for about an incense stick to burn before Imperial Physician Hu returned.

Yu Youyao quickly explained the reason. “Imperial Physician Hu, please forgive me for troubling you to run back and forth.”

Imperial Physician Hu shook his head. “A doctor is benevolent. It’s only right if something has happened to Third Miss’s body. I’ll treat her again and it’ll be more accurate.”

With that, he followed Yu Youyao into the house.

Yu Jianjia leaned against the bed, but the curtain was not lowered.

Perhaps it was because she had coughed up blood, but her face was no longer as pale as before. Instead, there was a hint of yellow in her white face, and she looked slightly withered. It was as if this mouthful of blood had exhausted all her energy.

After a while, Imperial Physician Hu said, “Third Miss is depressed. The blood has accumulated in her body, and she’s so anxious that she coughed up blood. I’ll prescribe another set of medicine. Use it with the three sets of medicine from before. As long as she recuperates well in the future, she’ll be fine.”

Yu Jianjia heaved a sigh of relief and closed her eyes tiredly. Her thin figure was curled up on the bed, looking very pitiful.

Yu Youyao instructed the two old maids to take good care of Yu Jianjia, then brought Imperial Physician Hu to the outer room.

Before she could ask, Imperial Physician Hu said, “Third Miss coughed up blood and injured her vitality. This way, the results of her meticulous recuperation for many years in the past are gone. In the future, every time she falls sick, her body will suffer a little. If she can recuperate carefully, she can recover up to 70%. It’s impossible for her to recover completely.”

If it were in the past, she could still recuperate.

Yu Youyao understood. She ordered someone to hand over a lot of gifts and politely sent Imperial Physician Hu to the carriage personally. Only when the carriage left the residence did she return to the courtyard.

Xia Tao brought over a food box. “Young Miss has been busy all afternoon and hasn’t even had time to eat dinner. Nanny Xu asked me to send you a bowl of bird’s nest. Have some first.”

Yu Youyao was indeed hungry, so she took the bird’s nest from Xia Tao and ate it in small bites.

After finishing the bowl of bird’s nest, Nanny Liu finally led the servants into the courtyard. She hurriedly said, “It’s been hard on Eldest Miss today. I’m still here in the courtyard. It’ll be safe. Hurry back and rest. If you’re exhausted, I don’t know how much Old Madam’s heart will ache.”

Yu Youyao was indeed a little tired. She rubbed her forehead. “The person who bought the medicine for Third Sister has returned. I’ve already instructed the small kitchen to brew it. After the medicine is brewed, I’ll immediately feed it to Third Sister. I’ll have to trouble Nanny for the rest.”

Nanny Liu smiled and nodded. “Go back and rest!”

When she returned to the Jade Courtyard, it was already 7pm. Nanny Xu ordered someone to prepare dinner.

Yu Youyao had eaten a bowl of bird’s nest and did not have much of an appetite now. She forced herself to eat a few mouthfuls before putting down her chopsticks. “Keep them all. Also, instruct the small kitchen to make white jade ginseng medicinal cuisine and send it to Cousin later.”

Qin Xin led the maidservants to pack up.

Yu Youyao asked Chun Xiao to help her soak in a medicinal bath. Then, she took out Zizhi Tongjian and leaned lazily against the chaise lounge to read it.

Liu’er took a large towel and helped Young Miss dry her hair, then rubbed in jasmine head oil.

The pitter-patter of the rain outside became urgent.

In the study, the sun shone brightly.

Zhou Linghuai frowned and lowered his eyes as he drew.

Chang An looked at it from time to time and couldn’t help but say, “Young Master, you’re going to give this painting to Miss again, right?”

Didn’t he just draw a painting of the Dragon Boat Festival and give it to Young Miss yesterday?

Why was he giving her another painting?

Zhou Linghuai asked instead, “Why do you think so?”

Chang An pursed his lips. “If it weren’t for Young Miss, would you be so obsessed with painting? I’ve never seen you so focused on painting in the past!”

Although Young Master had often painted in the past, ever since he entered the Yu Residence, this “often” had become a frequent occurrence.

Zhou Linghuai’s lips curled up slightly.

Chang An glanced at what his young master had drawn. “Is this a gift for Young Miss during the Dragon Boat Festival? Didn’t you already prepare a gift? Why are you still giving her a painting?”

Zhou Linghuai said calmly, “Double the gift and double the joy. Do you understand?”

Chang An was speechless. “But Young Master, it’s already half an hour past nine. Shouldn’t you rest?”

Zhou Linghuai did not even look up. “You can leave first.”

There was already the outline of a moat on the paper. The day after tomorrow was the Dragon Boat Festival. If he spent more time, he should be able to finish drawing by the Dragon Boat Festival.

When Chang An heard this, he understood. “Young Master, don’t tell me you’re going to stay up all night again? No, no, definitely not. It’s raining today and the humidity is high. You have a leg problem and need to rest well. You promised Young Miss that you would rest at 10pm every night.”

Hearing him mention Yu Youyao, Zhou Linghuai was finally willing to look at him seriously. He looked up. “If I don’t agree, are you going to report me to Cousin immediately?”

Chang An said self-righteously, “Young Miss asked me to keep an eye on you.”

Zhou Linghuai’s breath was stuck in his throat. “When did you start listening to her? Who’s your master?!”

Chang An’s eyes darted around. “Didn’t I learn this from you, Young Master? Aren’t you also obedient to Young Miss? You’re my master, so of course I follow your lead.”

Zhou Linghuai was furious. “Tell me clearly, when did I listen to her?”

Chang An pursed his lips.

Without waiting for him to answer, Zhou Linghuai did not want to say anything else. “Get lost. Get lost as far as you can.”

Chang An stood still.

Zhou Linghuai had been defeated by him. No, he had lost to his younger cousin, Yu Youyao. “I’ll rest at 11pm at the latest.”
