She smiled, feeling relieved that her granddaughter could still stabilize the overall situation.

She cried because no one would protect her granddaughter in the future. No matter what happens, she would have to rely on herself.

Yu Youyao quickly stroked her grandmother’s chest to calm her down. “Madam Yang will become divorced, so it’s not good for Third Sister to stay in the capital. Let’s send her back to the clan tomorrow. Fourth Brother isn’t young anymore. I heard that Mr. Xian Yun is going to open an academy in

Youzhou. After a while, I’ll send Fourth Brother to Youzhou Academy to study

with Mr. Xian Yun.’

A daughter of a divorced wife did not have a good life in the capital, let alone in the clan. Her future would not be good either.

Moreover, Yu Jianjia’s body was weak. If she’s sent to the clan, she would not be raised as preciously as in the residence.

No matter how Yu Jianjia schemed, she would always fail.

As for Yu Shansi, this world was always more tolerant of men. In the future, when he goes to the North and studies with Mr. Xian Yun, he would be alright no matter what, and no one would underestimate him.

Old Madam Yu nodded and coughed hard. “When… When will your cousin be back?”

Yu Youyao’s eyes turned red, but she held back her tears. “He’s already on his way. He should be back in a few days.”

Old Madam Yu was a little disappointed, but she forced herself to perk up. “I’m about to die. Your father is a b-beast who doesn’t recognize anyone. L-listen to me. When y-your cousin returns, get him to send you to Quanzhou. In the future, don’t… Don’t return to the Yu Residence anymore. I-I left a letter…”

Tears streamed down Yu Youyao’s face. “Grandmother, don’t say such inauspicious things…”

Old Madam Yu also cried. “Your maternal family has always doted on you. If you go to Quanzhou, with your cousin’s protection, 1-1 can feel at ease.”

After taking Divine Physician Xie’s medicine these past few days, she clearly felt that her health was improving. She had originally thought that she could take care of her granddaughter more.

However, God’s plans supersede our own.

Retribution!

All of this was retribution!

Fortunately, she had already made arrangements early on, so she did not have to be afraid that she would close her eyes and die just like that. She could be at ease that her granddaughter would not be in the hands of the family in the future.

“Grandmother, Grandmother…” Yu Youyao thought of her grandmother’s love for her and tears streamed down her face.

Old Madam Yu held her hand tightly. “In the future, 1 won’t be able to accompany you. Y-you have to be fine.” Her voice seemed to be stuck in her throat. She opened her mouth. “It’s about you and your mother… I’ve let your mother down. Uh, don’t blame me…

Yu Youyao wailed, “Grandmother… Grandmother, I don’t blame you. I don’t blame you…”

Anyone had the right to blame her grandmother.

Only she did not.

For the first half of her grandmother’s life, she had schemed for the Yu Clan, the Yu Residence, and her son. Even her health had failed.

For the next ten years, her grandmother had been thoroughly scheming for her granddaughter.

Her grandmother had made plans for her entire life, but never for herself.

As a junior, she had no right to interfere with her elders.

At this moment, Qing Xiu came over. “Matriarch, Third Miss has been invited over.”

Old Madam Yu grabbed the blanket and panted heavily. Her voice was squeezed out from between her teeth with a hint of ruthlessness. “Prepare a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.”

At this point, what else did she not understand?

Did she really think that she, an old woman, was so sick that she could do whatever she wanted at home?

She had learned how to coax men from that b*tch of hers. Did she think that she could escape unscathed just because her eldest son doted on her?

Or was it that she had been used to “I’m sick and I’m innocent”, “I’m sick and I’m pitiful”, and “I’m sick and I’m in the right” since she was young? Others had to give in to her. Did she think that she could use her “sickness” to succeed in the residence?

It was strange for her to be smart.

But!

She was just too smart, so she treated everyone else as fools.

Did she think that she would not be caught by sending Old Madam Lai out of the residence?

What did an elder need to have to do with an unfilial granddaughter?

Yu Youyao quickly lowered her head and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

She instructed Chun Xiao to prepare brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, Chun Xiao left as quickly as she came.

When the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone were ready, Old Madam Yu instructed, “Call her in!”

Not long after, Yu Jianjia entered the house. She was wearing a purple myrtle flower gauze dress. Her white and pink clothes complemented her pale face, making her look even more delicate and pitiful.

Yu Jianjia walked forward and was shocked to see Matriarch Yu lying on the bed lifelessly. Her eyes immediately turned red. “Grandmother, what’s wrong…”

As she spoke, she cried.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion, after hearing from Bai Ye that her father had gone to her grandmother’s house,she did not ask for more information. Her recuperating obediently in the courtyard because of her “illness”.

She did not expect that in the middle of the night, Qing Xiu would specially come to the courtyard and say that Matriarch had invited her over.

Sensing that something was amiss, she coughed so hard that her heart ached. Bai Ye said that she was very sick and was afraid that she would pass her illness on Matriarch, but Qing Xiu was still indifferent. Yu Jianjia did not want to come, but she had no choice.

There was nothing else she could do.

It was said that after taking Divine Physician Xie’s medicine, Old Madam’s spirits improved day by day. She was worried that if Old Madam’s health really recovered, she wouldn’t be able to scheme anything anymore.

In the past few years, Zhou Linghuai has been coming and going frequently in

Youzhou. The residents knew very well that Zhou Linghuai was valued by King Yue Fei. With Zhou Linghuai protecting Yu Youyao, she did not dare to scheme anything.

Taking advantage of the fact that Zhou Linghuai had gone to Youzhou, she first tried to taint Yu Youyao’s background and seek her father’s favor. When Zhou Linghuai returned to the residence, he wouldn’t be able to surpass her father.

She also knew that she was too anxious. Matriarch was sick, not dead.

Although she could wait, her mother couldn’t.

She couldn’t get involved in ruining Yu Youyao’s mother’s reputation and tainting background. She could only let her mother do it. Nioreover, only her mother understood her father best and knew what to do to make him believe

her.

Her mother was so sick that she was about to die. If she didn’t get this done as soon as possible, no one would help once her mother was gone.

Yu Jianjia bit her lip, her heart turning cold. If her mother hadn’t entered the Tranquil Heart Courtyard and was still the mistress of the Yu Residence, this matter would have been easier to handle.

Now that she was alone and helpless, no matter how thorough her plan was, there were still many oversights.

Old Madam Yu stared at her in a daze. “You black-hearted dog. Do you think I don’t know that you were the one who caused trouble behind your mother’s back? As expected of a b*tch who climbed into men’s beds. Even though you’re wearing the skin of a legitimate daughter, you can’t hide the lowliness in your bones.’

Originally, the Matriarch couldn’t even speak properly. Now, she was holding her breath and scolding until she didn’t even pant.

“Grand-grandmother, l…” Yu Jianjia’s eyes turned red from the scolding, and tears kept falling, as if she had suffered a huge grievance..
