All Hail Cousin Brother

Yao felt it was strange, so she smiled and asked: "Look at the happy face of the old lady, but what's the good news at home, tell me quickly so I can share the joy."

Old Madam Yu smiled and waved her hands: "No way, no way, after a while, you will know."

As soon as Yao shi put the words to his heart, he recalled it, and his smile deepened suddenly: "It can be seen that this is a great happy event. Since the old lady doesn't say it, I won't ask."

He is a smart and interesting person, Madam Yu narrowed her eyes with a smile.

Yu Shanyan and the others hurried forward to greet Mrs. Yu.

Old Madam Yu looked at her grandchildren, who were neatly arranged, all of them were respectful and sensible. Thinking that the big family was about to have a baby soon, she couldn't stop her smile.

Mrs. Yu first asked about Yu Shanyan's homework.

Yu Shanyan is the eldest son of the Second Household, who is responsible for Guangzong Yaozong and the important task of prospering the family. Mrs. Yu is very concerned about his studies.

Yu Shanyan said: "Eldest sister is also studying "Five Books and Four Classics" at home school. Cousin Zhou wrote a commentary for eldest sister, so I borrowed it and transcribed it to study it. The master said that he has made great progress."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Shanxin couldn't wait to say: "Not only the eldest brother, but also my third brother and I have improved a lot in schoolwork. During this time, sir, he hasn't caught me like he used to..."

Mrs. Yu immediately thought of the fact that Yu Shanxin used to be out-tempered, didn't like to learn, and was often taught by Mr. Hushan, so she couldn't help laughing.

"Your cousin Zhou is a capable person, it's not bad to learn more from him."

But he was thinking in his heart that Zhou Linghuai was a genius, he was praised by Mr. Hushan, and he was on the same level as Mr. Xianyun.

Mrs. Yu also read the annotations he wrote.

It is indeed unique and incisive, and even the other grandchildren in the mansion also benefited from it.

Mentioning Zhou Linghuai, Yao asked: "By the way, Linghuai has been in Youzhou for almost two months. Did he say when he will be back?"

Mrs. Yu shook her head: "At the beginning of the month, my family received a letter from him, only mentioning that everything was fine in Youzhou, and that he would stay in Youzhou for a while, and didn't say when he would come back. Wait until the joint trial of the three divisions is over."

Yao shi felt a little regretful: "It's a pity, this is the first Mid-Autumn Festival since Ling Huai entered the Yu Mansion, and Ling Huai is not at home on such a beautiful day."

Madam Yu was also regretful: "It's something that can't be helped, but the days to come are still long. Not this year, but next year."

Yao shi thought about it, yes!

Zhou Linghuai's return to Youzhou this time is also to make a complete break with there. From now on, he will take root in the big house, and they are all a family. There will be many opportunities for reunion in the future, and it doesn't depend on this day.

Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Yao were chatting about family matters.

Yu Shuangbai came to Yu Youyao's side, and looked at the elder sister eagerly: "Eldest sister, the fruit you sent to the second room a while ago is really delicious!"

The Xie family sent a cart full of fruits to the eldest sister, and the eldest sister was also generous, so she picked up a large basket and sent it to the second room. The quality is much better than the ones on the market, and the taste is needless to say.

This year, the fruits are rare and expensive. My mother kept half of the basket for home consumption, and the other half was given away.

Seeing her greedy look, Yu Youyao couldn't help laughing: "If you like it, send another basket over later, there won't be any more."

Cousin sent a big cart, there must have been a lot, but the Shandong rebellion, the fruit is expensive, so it's not good to take too much, lest it arouses suspicion.

Yu Shuang's eyes lit up: "Thank you big sister, big sister is Mid-Autumn Festival today,

In a while, we will fold lanterns and go to the lake to release river lanterns at night." Worried that Yu Youyao would not agree, she hastily pulled Yu Lianyu beside her: "The fifth and sixth younger sisters agreed, but the eldest sister can't refuse. "

Yu Youyao nodded: "Okay!"

After chatting for a while, Mrs. Yao supported Mrs. Yu and took the whole family to the second room.

Yu Youyao had made arrangements for the matters in the big room, and it was very appropriate to have Nanny Liu and Nanny Xu there.

The imperial examination was completed at the end of April, and the results have not been released until now. Yin Huaixi led the army to suppress the rebellion, and there is no news so far. The joint trial of the three divisions has also reached a critical moment.

There are many complications in the court, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, all of this will be finalized.

It was a day's rest in the middle of the court. Yu Zongzheng and Yu Zongshen, one was the second assistant of the cabinet, and the other had the case files. They went to the Yamen early in the morning and would not come back until the afternoon.

Therefore, the small banquet at noon is also eaten lively by the female relatives and juniors in the family.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Yao had a conversation with Mrs. Yu, and then went to arrange a dinner party. Yu Youyao didn't go to help, and she and Yu Shuangbai folded lanterns in the yard together.

Several sisters laughed and played around, and it was Youshi.

Yu Zongzheng got out of the yamen, changed into normal clothes, and came to the second room to greet Mrs. Yu.

Madam Yu was not in a hurry to tell him about Aunt Qiu's pregnancy, she planned to tell him about it after Ming'er visited the doctor.

Yu Jianjia lived in Zhuangzi for three or four months, and came back for several days. Yu Zongzheng was busy these days, so he didn't talk to Yu Jianjia properly.

Now that I'm free, I have to ask her more about Zhuangzi.

Yu Jianjia answered one by one.

When Yu Zongzheng saw that she looked good and her spirit was better than before, he was also relieved: "I have to thank you big sister, you can take care of your body because she is helping you take care of it."

Yu Jianjia couldn't help but tighten the handkerchief: "After my mother became seriously ill, it was my elder sister who took care of my daily life. I don't even know how to thank her."

What she said was so earnest that people listened to her and thought that her gratitude and respect for Yu Youyao had risen to the same height as her mother.

Yu Zongzheng couldn't be dissatisfied: "Your eldest sister treats you well. From now on, you must respect her everywhere, get closer to her, and learn the principles of handling people."

Yu Jianjia slowly lowered his head and agreed.

Only the trembling eyelashes revealed the restlessness in her heart.

The sky was getting dark, and the servants lit lanterns, and the courtyard was brightly lit.

Yao set up an incense table in the yard, with an incense burner on it, as well as some moon-worshipping fruits and pastries.

When the full moon was setting on the osmanthus branches, the whole family moved to the courtyard, and the tables were set up. Mrs. Yu and Yu Zongzheng were at the table alone, and the others were husband and wife, brothers, and sisters.

Chrysanthemum wine with autumn crabs has a special taste.

The chrysanthemum wine that the juniors drink is all brewed with rice wine. Drinking one or two cups should be suitable for the occasion and not intoxicating.

Yu Jianjia held up the small wine glass with both hands, and said to Yu Youyao: "Eldest sister, I am not in good health, and it is also elder sister who has been taking care of me, so I offer tea instead of wine, and express my gratitude to elder sister. Toast to you."

After speaking, he drank the tea in the cup.
