All Hail Cousin Brother

Chapter 544: No Conscience

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Had he forgotten how Madam Xie had died?

Could it be that he had forgotten that after being a “kind father” for a few years, he really thought that he was a “kind father” all along and had forgotten how he treated Yao Yao badly back then?

Or had he lost his conscience when he became an official?

He was really old and his brain was not as good as when he was young. When his heart softened, he always thought well of himself.

In addition, in the past few years, Eldest Son was indeed not as bad as before. It was also a good thing for the family, so she did not think too much about it.

To think that she had lived for most of her life, but she was not as insightful as her granddaughter.

It was obvious how angry Old Madam Yu was.

Yu Youyao shook her head. “Father is the eldest son of the first wife, so he has to care more about the family’s future. It’s also a good thing as a daughter depends on her father’s status. It’s just that this matter isn’t appropriate, so I’m telling this to Grandmother and asking you to persuade Father so that he won’t have unnecessary misunderstandings with me.”

Old Madam Yu’s face was filled with anger, and her voice deepened. “Alright, I’ve seen through what your father is. The bigger the official title, the more ambitious he is. Don’t speak up for your father anymore.” At this point, she knew that she was dizzy with anger, so she quickly changed the topic. “Brother Ming, are you asleep?”

Just now, she was also furious. She did not hide the dissatisfaction and anger in her heart in front of her granddaughter.

The older she was, the more arrogant she became.contemporary romance

Yu Youyao nodded. “Perhaps he’s a little tired from crying. When it comes to me, he falls asleep quickly.”

Old Madam Yu forced a smile. “You’ve also been hugging him for a long time. I think your hands are sore, so let Nanny carry him back to the Rain Autumn

Courtyard.”

With that, she asked Nanny Liu to go to the side room to call the nanny.

The nanny came quickly and quickly took Yu Shanming from Yu Youyao’s arms. She smiled and said, “Eldest Miss’s posture of carrying a child is more stable than us, who are used to raising children. Every time Seventh Young Master returns to you, he’ll be more peaceful than anyone else.”

This was not a compliment. The child’s reaction did not lie.

Yu Youyao smiled. “Children are tender. If I don’t hold them firmly, they’ll definitely moan and feel uncomfortable.”

Nanny smiled too.

This was it. Only when you were with someone sincerely would you think about whether they were comfortable.

As soon as Yu Youyao left, Old Madam Yu couldn’t suppress her anger. She reached out and swept the cups and plates on the table to the ground.

Old Madam Yu said in a low voice, “As the eldest son of the first wife, it’s fine for Eldest Son to scheme more for the family, but this scheme should be calculated more clearly. To think that he can think of such a thing that harms others without benefiting himself.”

Anyone who was well-mannered should know that they had to help their maiden family. Only when their maiden family was stable could the children marry well and her status as a wife in her husband’s family be stable.

Yao Yao wasn’t a fool.

Which brother and sister in the family had never been taken care of by her?

With Yao Yao’s relationship with the Xie family, did he still need to scheme for this relationship?

With Yao Yao’s character and talent, was he worried that she would benefit from the Xie family and not help the family?

She really didn’t know if she should call him stupid or arrogant.

Nanny Liu lowered her head, wishing she could cover her ears too.

When Master mentioned this in the morning, she felt that it was inappropriate, but she did not think too much about it. Seeing that Matriarch was happy to see it happen, she did not say anything else.

Who knew…

As soon as Yu Youyao left the north courtyard, she bumped into Concubine Jiang, who had come to greet the Old Madam.

The autumn-colored dress made her look beautiful. Although her figure was not as thin as Concubine Qiu’s, her every move was a little delicate and she did not look frivolous or tacky. Instead, she looked elegant. It was obvious that she had been raised well.

Concubine Jiang was a newcomer who had only been accepted into the residence two years ago.

At that time, Concubine Qiu had been pregnant for seven to eight months and her body had become heavier. Matriarch He made the decision to send Concubine He to the manor, planning to take in a concubine for Yu Zongzheng seriously.

Concubine Jiang was the third daughter of the Imperial College’s Registrar

Jiang’s family. Second Aunt had recommended her using her maiden family.

Although the official registrar was only a sixth-grade official, his family also had farmers and scholars. His family had a small fortune and had been studying agriculture for generations. He could be considered to have passed down poetry and books.

Official Jiang was also a proper scholar. He was much more particular about poetry, books, and etiquette than ordinary families.

Concubine Jiang was still the legitimate daughter of the first wife. Just based on her status, she had to be valued.

Yu Zongzheng was also very satisfied with this concubine with a good background and upbringing. He gave her some respect, and Concubine Qiu could not surpass her.

Concubine Jiang was indeed talented and knowledgeable.

After arriving at the Yu Residence, she could show filial piety to her elders and help manage the inner residence. She was even better than Concubine Qiu.

Old Madam Yu was also very satisfied and relied on her a lot. Most of the family matters were handled by her and Concubine Qiu.

This way, the family was stable.

Yu Youyao did not spend too much time in the inner residence. Concubine Jiang and Concubine Qiu were also tactful. If they could not make up their minds,they would discuss it with Nanny Liu and Nanny Xu before coming over to ask.

When Concubine Jiang saw Yu Youyao, she quickened her pace and walked forward. She bowed to Yu Youyao. “Eldest Miss, you’ve just come out of

Matriarch’s residence.”

Yu Youyao also smiled and nodded. “I’ve disturbed her for a long time just now. I think she’s tired. Concubine Jiang, why don’t you go over tomorrow to greet her?”

Her grandmother was so angry with Yu Zongzheng’s unintentional scheme that she probably wasn’t in the mood to see Concubine Jiang anymore.

As Concubine Jiang was from a good family and was the daughter of the first wife, she was even more respected than Concubine Qiu in front of her grandmother.

Madam Yang was still sick, so she couldn’t be filial in front of Matriarch. Yu Zongzheng had to instruct her to go to Matriarch Yang’s residence more often.

Naturally, Concubine Jiang had to do as she was told.

Seeing that she was sensible, her grandmother tacitly agreed.

She wasn’t a noble concubine but she was even better.

Concubine Jiang’s gaze shifted slightly, and she smiled. “Matriarch is old, so it’s time for her to rest more.” At this point, she changed the topic and smiled. “My hometown is in Jiangxi Province, where a type of pineapple is produced. It’s sour, sweet, and refreshing. It’s fragrant, juicy, and dry in spring. It’s very appetizing. A few days ago, my hometown sent some into the capital. My mother ordered someone to send a few over, wanting to give them to Matriarch to try. Since Matriarch is resting, I won’t disturb her.”

This pineapple was originally also wild. Her family had tried to improve it, but they did not expect it to taste so good. It was just that there was too little production and it was not big. It did not look dignified.

Usually, it was eaten by their own family and was not brought out.

This spring, there were few fruits in the capital, so pineapples were rare.

Yu Youyao smiled. “You’re too kind.”

As long as the Yu Residence did not give up on Yu Shansi, the legitimate son of the first wife, Eldest Son could not divorce Madam Yang. Divorcing a wife had to be done carefully. If one violated the rules, it would be called “offending a wife.’

As the legitimate son of the first wife, Yu Shansi could not have a mother who had violated her.

Otherwise, it would ruin his future..
