“Third Sister, you’re too polite.” Yu Youyao also picked up her wine glass and finished the chrysanthemum wine in one gulp.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she put down the wine glass in her hand, Yu Shansi also picked up his wine glass and walked up to Yu Youyao. He cupped his hands and bowed. “Third Sister is right. Grandmother is old, Mother is seriously ill, and Third Sister’s health isn’t good. I’m still young. The people in the family are all under Eldest Sister’s meticulous care. You’ve worked hard to manage the household, respect your elders, treat my mother’s illness, and take care of your younger siblings. I toast this glass of wine to Eldest Sister.”

Yu Shuangbai and the others joined in the fun and toasted her.

Not to mention that as the eldest sister, Yu Youyao usually took care of them a lot. In school, she was also an example and helped her sisters study hard.

Yu Youyao drank the wine with a clear conscience.

Yu Youyao was respected by her younger siblings. This also proved that she had the demeanor of a legitimate elder, reflecting the family style and upbringing of the Yu Residence.

The elders watched from the side and were also happy!

However, Yu Jianjia was not so happy.

She had toasted Yu Youyao so that her father would know that not only was Yu Youyao thorough, but his third daughter was also polite and sensible.

However, she did not expect Yu Shansi to interfere.

Even Yu Shuangbai and the others joined in the fun.

She and Yu Youyao sat at the same table. They were all sisters of the same family. Yu Youyao was respected by her siblings in the family, making it seem like she was unappreciated.

Although the rice wine was not strong, after drinking a few more glasses, Yu Youyao’s fair face turned red.

Seeing that Yu Shanxin was holding his wine glass and looking a little restless, Old Madam Yu quickly said, “Although rice wine isn’t strong, you’ll still get drunk after drinking too much. Don’t go too far!”

Who in the residence didn’t know about Yao Yao’s alcohol tolerance?

One glass caused joy, two glasses caused foolishness, and three glasses of wine… That was exactly what she meant.

Yu Shanxin felt a little regretful. Although he was her brother, he had often benefited from Yu Youyao.

On the day of the reunion, the family had to recite poems to match the Mid-Autumn Festival scene.

Yu Youyao was not good at this, but when she saw the full moon in the sky, she thought of her cousin and recited, “The moon is round from a thousand miles away. The moonlight shines brightly on my heart. I want to hold the moon and give it to you from afar. Meeting you can only happen in my dream.”

She had borrowed lines from ancient poems and pieced together a poem, but it was also beautiful.

Yu Zongzheng smiled and praised, “Although this poem is smart, it’s also vivid and sincere.”

After the family banquet was over.

Yu Shuangbai was about to go and light the river lamps when Old Madam Yu waved her hand. “Bring a few more people with you. It’s late at night, so you have to be careful.

The second branch had also built a lake, but it was not as big as the first branch’s lotus lake.

The few young misses laughed and went to the Jade Courtyard together.

When they arrived at the lake, Yu Shuangbai took the lanterns and placed them into the water one by one.

Yu Youyao held the lotus lamp she had folded and closed her eyes, making a wish in her heart. “I hope Cousin comes back safely soon.”

After making her wish, she carefully placed the lantern into the lake and watched it drift down the lake. She hoped that it wouldn’t sink until the candle burned out.

She had heard that this way, wishes would come true.

Dozens of lanterns were placed into the lake. The surface of the lake was filled with candlelight that complemented the lanterns on the trees. It was very beautiful.

After putting out the lanterns, the group returned to the second house.

Yu Shuangbai called Yu Shanyan and the others over to play drums and pass flowers.

The group ate and played until nine o’clock.

The family banquet finally ended.

Yu Youyao followed the limestone path. Along the way, there were houses and trees everywhere. The dense light and shadow made the night look beautiful.

Yu Youyao pushed open the door and entered the study, but her gaze suddenly paused.

An exquisite octagonal tassel palace lantern was placed on the desk.

The candlelight was yellow and dense.

This scene surprised Yu Youyao. She picked up her skirt and rushed to the desk. She picked up the palace lantern and looked at it carefully.

There were pearl and jade tassels on the octagonal lantern eaves, making it look elegant.

On the palace lantern was a painting of a boat on the lotus lake. Yu Youyao was already very familiar with her cousin’s painting. At a glance, she could tell that this was her cousin’s brush and ink.

“Yin San, is this a gift from Cousin for the Mid -Autumn Festival?” The dim yellow light of the palace lamp shone on Yu Youyao’s beautiful face, bright and beautiful.

Yin San walked out from the dark. “Young Master made it himself.”

Yu Youyao was pleasantly surprised. “Cousin, you actually know how to make lamps. However, it’s great to be able to receive a lantern personally made by you during the Mid -Autumn Festival!”

Yin San said nothing.

Yu Youyao carried the lantern and returned to her room. She changed the small lamp beside her bed to the palace lamp that her cousin had given her. In the future, she would sleep every night with the lamp that her cousin had personally made.

At this moment, in the distant camp in Shandong, there were also bonfires lit. The soldiers gathered to drink, eat, and play chess. It was also lively.

From afar, there was Chang Ningbo’s loud voice. “I wonder how our Master Yin’s brain works. I only mastered the craftsmanship after learning for a year and a half, but he did it in two hours. What’s even more heartbreaking is that the lamp he learned for two hours looks even better than the ones I’ve been making for most of my life. He’s simply not human…” Immediately, there were soldiers who cheered— “If Master Yin isn’t human, what is he?!”

“Why do I feel that you’re scolding Master Yin at the end?”

“Could it be that you have a grudge after being taught a lesson by Master Yin previously…”

Chang Ningbo slapped him. “Sh*t, do I look like that kind of narrow-minded person? Isn’t there a saying that goes, ‘Intelligence means being closer to the demon’? Our Master Yin isn’t an ordinary person. He’s a true demon…

Yin Huaixi had also racked his brains for that palace lamp until it couldn’t get any better.

Even so, he still said that it wasn’t for his favorite girl.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. He finally understood that women weren’t the only ones who did not mean what they said.

If a man did not mean what he said, he was definitely not human.

The corners of Yin Huaixi’s mouth twitched slightly. It wasn’t difficult to make palace lamps, but it was difficult because time was too tight.

As he had just started learning, he spent some time practicing. It wasn’t until he had completely mastered the lamp-making technique that he really started. Just the Lotus Plucking Painting on the paper on the palace lamp took a lot of time.

The little girl should like it very much.

After the commotion, the soldiers looked up and couldn’t help but think of their families. “I miss my mother…”

“I want to too…”

“Me too…”

The young soldiers, who were only in their teens and had just participated, looked at the jade plate in the sky and thought about how it was the Mid-Autumn Festival today. Then, they recalled that in the past, no matter how poor their family was, they had to prepare mooncakes every time it was the Mid-Autumn Festival. At night, the family would gather and have a lively reunion meal.

The old soldiers patted the shoulders of the young soldiers beside them.. “Who doesn’t want to go home? When the war in Shandong is settled, when we return home, won’t it be Mid -Autumn Festival?”
