All Hail Cousin Brother Chapter 742 – Farewell

Chapter 742: Farewell

Atlas Studios    Editor: Atlas Studios

“Take a look at the capital. Which daughter-in-law is like you? Not long after you married into the family, the family was divided into separate families. Your mother-in-law is with the eldest branch. As the second daughter-in-law, you don’t have to wake up in the morning or set rules. You don’t have to listen to your mother-in-law’s instructions and without your sisters-in-law interfering, you’re in charge of your own life. Even if Matriarch is sick, you don’t have to treat her illness. Other than the fact that Master is a little cold, how can your days not be smooth?”

In her opinion, her days in the Yu Residence were simply like heaven.

How did Eldest Miss fall sick?

Wasn’t it all because she was tired of attending to the funeral matters?

A good girl had lost so much weight that she looked like a bag of bones. When she stood in the wind, it was as if a gust of wind could blow her away. It was because they had split up that Madam did not suffer.

Madam Yao thought of her mother again.

Her grandmother was not a particularly harsh mother-in-law, but scholarly families valued rules. Every morning and night, they would serve tea and water. From time to time, they had to set rules. Not to say that they wanted to torture their daughters-in-law, but they did not want them to live comfortably. From time to time, they had to establish their authority.

She remembered how she called her daughter-in-law over from time to time and reprimanded her. She was either forcing her daughter-in-law to help her husband give birth to more children or take in concubines…

Her mother always asked her to endure everything because her mother had endured things for decades until her grandmother died. Only then would her life be better.

After she married into the Yu Residence, her mother kept feeling that she had fallen into paradise.

Nanny Qian said earnestly, “You’re a blessed person. Eldest Young Master has a good future, and Second Young Master is also promising. Second Miss is smart and sharp, and your daughters are also outstanding. You are treated with great respect. Don’t think about those things. Carefully raise your children. There’s still a good future ahead. You can’t let your days become affected because of a moment of anger. Look at Madam Yang’s outcome.” Madam Yao had a headache. “Let me think about it carefully.”

These words were also reasonable, so she couldn’t refute them. However, she still couldn’t let go.

Nanny Qian did not say anything else.

This was a good day for Madam. If she lived too comfortably, it was easy for her to let one’s imagination run wild. Although Master wasn’t considerate, he was very thorough with the family and didn’t let Madam worry too much. Master also cared about her children, so Madam wasn’t too angry.

To put it bluntly, she was could still tolerate it.

Fortunately, Maste returned to the clan and would only return to the capital three years later because he was in mourning. In the future, he would explain from time to time. After such a long time, he would probably be able to figure his life out.

Xia Tao replied to Young Miss and hesitated for a moment before mentioning Second Madam’s cold attitude.

Yu Youyao only nodded in understanding. “The small gathering place is in the corridor outside. As it’s still the period to be fililal, it’s not appropriate to be too extravagant. Get someone to set up a charcoal stove. As you warm yourself by the fire, roast some mushrooms, sweet potatoes, chestnuts, and some vegetables. In addition, prepare some snacks, dried fruits, fruits, and so on.

Prepare more.”

Xia Tao quickly responded.

Just as it was ten o’clock, Yu Shuangbai, Yu Lianyu, and Yu Fangfei ran over impatiently.

Ever since the side door between the Second Mansion and the First Mansion was blocked, every time Yu Shuangbai and the others came to the First Mansion, they would follow Madam Yao. They would not stay for long before returning to the Second Mansion. The sisters did not even have a chance to talk.

The sisters sat under the porch and spoke.

Yu Shuangbai held Yu Youyao’s hand and asked with concern, “Previously, when I heard that you were sick, I originally planned to come and visit you, but Mother didn’t let us come and bother you. She said that it had been very difficult for you to manage Grandmothers funeral and wanted you to have some peace.” At this point, she puffed up her cheeks and was a little indignant. She made it sound like she was so insensible. “Are you feeling better?”

Actually, her mother only did not allow her to come over.

This was what Granny Qian said.

However, Nanny Qian’s words were also her mother’s.

Yu Youyao nodded. “She’s much better. However, Imperial Physician Hu said that not only does she have to treat this illness, but she also has to recuperate well and replenish her lost essence, qi, and spirit. Otherwise, it’ll affect her body badly.”

Yu Lianyu looked worried. “During this period of time, Eldest Sister has suffered a lot. Previously, you almost fainted in the mourning hall. You can’t be careless.’

That was three weeks after Grandmother’s death. Eldest Sister had returned the sacrificial offerings to the women who had come to pay their respects. Her bent body did not straighten up immediately and she fell back. Fortunately, she was standing behind Eldest Sister who quickly helped her up.

Even so, Big Sister was dizzy and couldn’t use much strength. It took her a while to recover.

However, it shocked the women present.

Yu Fangfei was a little reluctant. “The weather in Quanzhou is good. It’s not as cold as in the north in winter, so it’s very suitable for recuperation. After Big Sister goes to Quanzhou, you have to recuperate well and come back as soon as possible.”

Ever since her grandmother fell sick, the two families had not interacted much, so it was inevitable that their relationship had become a little distant. At this moment, hearing their sincere concern, Yu Youyao felt a little uncomfortable. “When I reach Quanzhou, I’ll write to you. Quanzhou is a city at the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It connects the north and south, and trade is very prosperous. If you need anything,            to me and I’ll send it to you.”

At the mention of the prosperity of Quanzhou, the sadness of parting immediately dissipated.

The young misses chattered together, as if they had endless things to say.

At noon, Yin Huaixi, Yu Shanyan, Yu Shanxin, Yu Shanli, and Yu Shansi also arrived.

A group of people sat in a circle around a few charcoal stoves. The barbed wire was placed on the charcoal stoves. The servants stood at the side and helped hand over the food, also paying attention to their masters’ safety.

Under the guidance of the kitchen maids, the young masters and young misses, who had never done any chores, roasted their own food.

The few of them had all learned how to read and write, so it was easy.

On the other hand, the few of them had made a lot of jokes.

There was laughter under the porch.

Due to Old Madam Yu’s mourning period, this small gathering lasted for less than two hours before it ended.

Yu Youyao sat alone under the porch for a long time…

Yin Huaixi stood under the Parasol Tree and looked at her for a long time…

All good things must come to an end. No matter how bad the Yu Residence was, their sibling relationship in the past was sincere.

A long sigh sounded.

Chun Xiao knew that Young Miss was feeling a little down, so she said, “The young masters and young misses of the Second Mansion have prepared farewell gifts for you when they came.”

Yu Youyao nodded, indicating that she understood. “By the way, have you prepared the gifts for Ms. Ye?”

Chun Xiao nodded. “It’s already prepared.”

Yu Youyao instructed Chun Xiao to bring the gifts and went to the school.

In the bamboo forest near the Xiaoxiang Courtyard, there was a layer of withered bamboo leaves. The straight bamboo stem faced the cold wind. It did not look desolate or sparse, but looked even more vigorous and green.

When Old Madam Su saw Yu Youyao coming over, she quickly led her into the house.

Ms. Ye was drinking tea..
