312 Yu Youyao Is Bewitched
Every ti, Madam was always picky.
If it weren’t for the fact that Eldest Master was satisfied, Madam would have long found an opportunity to cause a commotion.
Yang Shuwan was furious. “Master was blinded by that scourge, Yu Youyao. He thinks that Yu Youyao is so impressive and let a half-grown child like her cause trouble for him. He didn’t even think about it. Brother Si and Yu Youyao didn’t co from the sa stomach. What sibling relationship can there be with Brother Si? What good can it be for him?”
Nanny Li also felt that Eldest Miss’s thods were too impressive.
In the past, Eldest Master had never looked at his eldest daughter at all. He would either reprimand or teach her a lesson.
But how long had it been?
She did not know what Eldest Miss had done, but not only had Eldest Master completely changed his opinion of her, but he also valued her very much. He had also given his admiration for Third Miss to Eldest Miss.
The more Yang Shuwan spoke, the angrier she beca. “I think it’s not enough that Yu Youyao hard Jia Jia and . She’s even unwilling to let Brother Si off. She’s so young, but she’s actually so vicious…”
With that said, new and old grudges surged into his heart.
She and Master were originally a loving couple.
However, Yu Youyao had interfered a few tis. Master did not care about her anymore and was filled with dissatisfaction with her. He even despised her for being the daughter of a concubine and not being presentable. Now, he did not even let her manage the family, nor did he allow her to interfere in Brother Si’s upbringing.
After the Flower Festival at the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence, Eldest Master had not rested in her house for a period of ti. Instead, he had served that little b*tch from the Clear Autumn Courtyard until her face was rosy.
And Jia Jia!
Master had always liked such an obedient and sensible person!
However, after Yu Youyao caused a commotion at the flower festival, Master had also said that he was “disappointed.” She had beco soone who was “petty”, “unpresentable”, and “did not know the severity of the matter.”
At the thought of this, she felt a chill run down her spine.
For a mont, she almost thought that Yu Youyao had been possessed and had specially co to harm them.
No matter how angry Yang Shuwan was, the next day, she got up before dawn and started the courtyard moving process in full swing.
All the household items and tools had been arranged. It was a symbolic move, but the food, clothes, and expenses could not be taken lightly.
The residence was in chaos.
Yu Youyao was not affected. She went to school as usual.
Yu Jianjia sprained her ankle and was indirectly grounded by her father. It had been a long ti since she had co to school.
In the family school, there were only four people—Yu Youyao, Yu Shuangbai, Yu Lianyu, and Yu Fangfei. In addition to the Four Books and Five Classics, Ms. Ye would also spend so ti every day to recount the teachings of won.
After school, Ms. Ye asked Yu Youyao to do her howork as usual. Then, she said, “From tomorrow onwards, you’ll go to school every three days.”
Yu Youyao was stunned. “Ms. Ye?”
Ms. Ye explained, “You’re progressing too quickly. There’s only so much I can teach you at the mont.”
Actually, Yu Youyao’s learning progress was too fast. Compared to her, the other sisters in the residence were far inferior.
Usually, in class, her teaching was biased towards Yu Youyao. However, her teachings were not for Yu Youyao alone. She was paid to help others resolve their problems, so she could not do as she pleased. She couldn’t only teach Yu Youyao and ignore the other sisters.
However, if she slowed down her teaching progress, it would also delay Yu Youyao and waste her ti.
However, she knew that Yu Youyao had received the Empress Dowager’s recognition and was no longer the sa as before. The elders in the residence probably had many things to teach her.
With Yu Youyao’s current learning progress, it was suitable for her to go to school every three days.
Yu Youyao understood imdiately and nodded in agreent.
With her cousin guiding her in her studies, the content of her studies was already a little ahead of ti. It was impossible for Ms. Ye to ignore her sisters and teach the content that was ahead.
She had realized earlier that there was already very little she could learn at ho. Continuing to attend ho school would not help her improve much, and it would be a waste of ti.
During this period of ti, she had learned more and more, so ti was a little tight.
However, it was her duty to respect her teacher. Even though it was a little difficult every day, she still attended school as usual.
It seed that Ms. Ye had also discovered this.
At the thought of this, Yu Youyao felt grateful. “Thank you, Ms. Ye.”
Ms. Ye smiled faintly. “I’ll get soone to send the content of the classes every day to the Jade Courtyard. Learn on your own. If there’s anything you don’t understand, rember it and ask for guidance when you go to school. Even if you don’t go to school, don’t relax and study. Learn more while you’re young, and your future will be easier.”
These words ca from the bottom of her heart. Yu Youyao nodded. “Of course I’ll rember your teachings.”
After Yu Youyao left, Ms. Ye sat in the room and gently rubbed the wooden rhinoceros incense bead on her wrist.
There was only one incense bead with a Lantian Jade Bead. It was a bracelet made of five-colored threads. It was simple and exquisite. With the accompanying osmanthus fragrance, it was reserved and elegant. The fragrance matched her temperant.
This was a gift from Yu Youyao so ti ago.
The wooden rhinoceros incense beads were made by Yu Youyao herself. It was a rare type of good incense beads.
When she returned to the Jade Courtyard, her cousin was indeed sitting under the parasol tree, reading a book.
The weather had been hot these past few days, and it was as if it was sumr. Yu Youyao did not like to stay in the house anymore, so she got soone to set up a desk, incense table, and a tea table under the parasol tree. She even set up a chaise lounge.
The shade of the Parasol Tree was thick, and a cold wind blew. He burned a wisp of incense and practiced his calligraphy, drank tea, or took a nap under the Parasol Tree. Then, he could no longer feel the hot sun.
Even her cousin liked it.
Yu Youyao smiled and called out, “Cousin!”
Zhou Linghuai had already put away his book. He poured a cup of tea and handed it to her. “It’s sunny outside. Rember to hold an umbrella every day when you go to school.”
The tea was neither hot nor cold, and it quenched her thirst.
Yu Youyao held her teacup and took small sips. She smiled until her eyebrows curved and her eyes lit up. “Cousin, I don’t have to go to school every day anymore. Ms. Ye asked to go every three days.”
The corners of Zhou Linghuai’s mouth curled up. “That’s good. It’ll be much easier.”
Yu Youyao couldn’t help but sigh. “Ms. Ye is really good!”
...
Zhou Linghuai rubbed the beads on his wrist and chuckled. “The Dragon Boat Festival is in two days. I’ve drawn the Dragon Boat Festival Auspicious Scenery. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I’ll hang it in the house to reflect the scene.”
With that, he took the scroll from the desk.
During this period of ti, he had been improving the painting of “Bodhisattva”. Sotis, he had not touched his brush or ink seriously. Today, he saw blooming hollyhocks in the courtyard, so he improvised a painting.
