362 Mr. Xian Yun Enters the Capital

Moreover, Yu Jianjia was eager to go to the manor to recuperate. If she did not agree, how could Yu Jianjia rest in peace?

In that case, her illness would probably worsen.

She might as well do as she wanted.

Yu Youyao had an idea, so she said, “Third Sister is still young after all. She lives alone outside and doesn’t even have an elder by her side. It’s indeed inappropriate. I’ll have to trouble Grandmother to manage this matter. We have to settle it properly.”

During this period of time, many things had happened in the residence.

First, Yu Shansi fell into the water, then Madam Yang had a migraine and recuperated in Tranquil Heart Residence. If even Yu Jianjia was sent to the manor, outsiders would still think that she, as her sister, was intolerable.

It was better to avoid it and not touch it.

Old Madam Yu smiled. “I have the same intention. I plan to send a letter to the clan and pick a clan aunt to take care of Third Miss. It’ll be more appropriate.”

She turned to look at Yu Jianjia and asked, “What do you think?”

Madam Yu had a big family, and there were many widowed aunties. If she chose someone suitable and famous to take care of Yu Jianjia, she could also teach her some principles from the side. It was also a win-win situation.

Even if word got out, it wouldn’t be blamed on Yao Yao.

The clan aunt wasn’t someone a junior like Yao Yao could find. It could only be done by her grandmother.

Yu Jianjia quickly said, “It’s all up to Grandmother.”

Yu Youyao said, “In that case, it’s more appropriate to have an elder by your side. However, we can’t be too anxious about this matter. Third Sister’s body is a little weak, so she needs to be more careful with her food and clothes. She needs to prepare carefully. In addition, the houses in the manor have to be repaired separately before anyone can live in them. Third Sister, rest well these few days. When everything is ready, we’ll go to the manor. What do you think?”

The two of them exchanged blows and settled this matter!

Yu Jianjia had achieved her goal. She should be happy, but she couldn’t help but feel a little stifled. “Thank you for your hard work, Grandmother and Big Sister.”

Old Madam Yu waved her hand and said earnestly, “You still have to rely on yourself to recuperate. No one else can replace you. You’re still young, and you still have a long way to go. If you don’t have a good body, you’ll be the one suffering in the future. Imperial Physician Hu also said that the younger you are, the easier it is to recuperate.”

Yu Youyao lowered her head and drank her tea. Her grandmother had never liked Yu Jianjia’s behavior and did not think much of her.

However, Yu Jianjia was her biological granddaughter after all. Be it rules or etiquette, she was extremely thorough. Naturally, she hoped that she would be well.

In the past, with Madam Yang in the way, her grandmother couldn’t interfere in Yu Jianjia’s upbringing. Now that Yu Jianjia had taken the initiative to go to the manor to recuperate, she also wanted to help Yu Jianjia.

Most of the clan aunties who could be invited were extremely famous. Yang Shuwan, the daughter of a concubine, was completely incomparable.

It was true that she was taking care of Yu Jianjia, and it was also true that she was teaching her.

It was rare for Yu Jianjia to hear a hint of “kind motherly love” from her grandmother who had always been very cold to her. She only felt that it was ironic. “Thank you for your concern, Grandmother. I’ll definitely take good care of myself now. I won’t let you worry.”

In the past, Old Madam only had eyes for Yu Youyao and had never taken her seriously.

Now, she was “concerned” about her granddaughter.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

If it weren’t for Old Madam’s orders, why would her mother be locked up in the Tranquil Heart Residence?

Previously, she had asked the old maids in the courtyard to pa.s.s on a message a few times, wanting to see her mother. However, Old Madam had used the excuse that she had fallen ill previously and wanted to recuperate calmly, preventing her from even seeing her mother.

Her mother had married into the Yu Residence for so many years and had helped the Yu Residence grow. Even her father’s only son had been born by her mother. Even if she had not contributed much, she had worked hard. Now, she had ended up like this.

What was even more ridiculous was that there were actually rumors in the residence that Yu Youyao’s mother’s first wife, First Madam Xie, had been killed by her mother!

Even though it was a little inappropriate for her mother to have feelings for her father when she was pregnant, Eldest Madam Xie had a short life. What did it have to do with her mother?

After Yu Jianjia left, Old Madam Yu sighed slightly. “I hope that when she goes to the manor, your third sister will really be able to recuperate well.”

Yu Youyao did not reply. She took the box from Liu’er and handed it to her grandmother. “This is the cooling bracelet I made today.”

Old Madam Yu did not think about Yu Jianjia anymore. She smiled and said, “I heard long ago that you were fiddling with the heat-repelling beads. It took you so long to make it. I don’t think it’s easy!”

As she spoke, she took the box and opened it.

There was a string of brownish-black hand beads inside. Every bead was the size of a lotus seed. They were ancient in color, hard, and full. There were “fortune” patterns carved on them, which meant longevity.

Even though they had just been made, the beads were still exquisitely made of wood. Such beads had to be worn on one’s body. After some time, they would be smooth and s.h.i.+ny.

Yu Youyao smiled and said, “It took more than half a month. However, if it’s maintained well, the medicinal fragrance will only increase and not decrease even if it’s worn for many years. If you smell it carefully, it’ll calm your mind. When you play with it, you’ll also smell the fragrance. It’ll be fragrant for a long time. If you wear it between your wrists and your skin, it can better regulate your Qi and relieve the wind and dryness. If you get a heat stroke and eat it, it can also clear the heat and detoxify poison, nouris.h.i.+ng the spleen and lungs.”

Old Madam Yu sniffed it and put the pearls around her wrist. Her face was smiling so widely that she looked like a chrysanthemum. “The fragrance is also good. When I first smelled it, it was a little bitter, but it was very refres.h.i.+ng. When the fragrance entered my lungs, it felt a little cooler. Even my heartbeat relaxed. This is really good stuff.”

The weather had been hot these past few days, so she kept feeling suffocated. After smelling this cooling summer pearl, she indeed felt much better.

Yu Youyao smiled. “As long as Grandmother likes it.”

A few days later, the Imperial Court rewarded the Marquis of Changxing.

The Marquis of Changxing, Cao Xing, had rendered meritorious service in guarding Youzhou. He was promoted from a second-grade marquis to a first-grade Marquis of Changxing. His t.i.tle was equivalent to that of a duke. He led 300,000 troops in Youzhou and was in charge of the war in Youzhou. He was also given good farmland, beautiful jade, cloth, and so on.

For a moment, the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence was in the limelight.

At this moment, a green-topped carriage quietly entered the capital without attracting anyone’s attention.

The next day, at 5am, Yu Zongshen left the government office and came to An Shou Hall. “This morning, Mr. Xian Yun sent a greeting card to the residence. Tomorrow, he will enter the residence to visit Mr. Hu Shan.”

Old Madam Yu was immediately shocked. “Mr. Xian Yun has entered the capital?!”

Yu Zongshen nodded. “Yes, he entered the capital quietly and did not alarm anyone. Mr. Hu Shan is temporarily staying in the Yu Residence. He and Mr. Hu Shan are old friends. It’s rare for him to enter the capital, so he naturally has to reminisce with Mr. Hu Shan.”

After being shocked, Old Madam Yu also calmed down. She stopped twirling her prayer beads and looked confused. “This is really a Bodhisattva entering the family. I can’t afford to mess up!”
