All Hail Cousin Brother

Before leaving, he took a look at Yu Youyao.

The little girl sat beside her aunt, obediently lowered her head, showing a part of her neck, as if feeling his gaze, she raised her head subconsciously.

The eyes of the two collided unexpectedly.

Yin Huaixi couldn't help being startled, he just felt that at this glance, it was as if a thunder from the sky had stirred the fire on the ground, as if a fire burst out, making his heart beat faster, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and then left the room.

Yu Youyao was also stunned for a moment, and Yin Huaixi cast a casual glance before leaving, showing a burning look, as if she had eaten a mouthful of sour plum fruit, heat rushed to her face.

The room was silent for a moment.

The old lady Xie then looked at Yu Youyao: "Can you trust this cousin?"

Yu Youyao lowered her eyebrows, and said obediently: "My cousin and I have always been close, and our relationship is much closer than his elder brother and younger siblings at home."

A cousin, actually closer than the siblings in the house?

Such a close relationship is obviously condoned by Mrs. Yu, even deliberately.

Wang frowned and asked about Zhou Linghuai.

Knowing that they were worried about Yin Huaixi, Yu Youyao took her grandmother and eldest aunt to the Yaoyu Courtyard, and showed them the brushes and inks she used to practice calligraphy one by one.

There is a full box, each of which records her progress.

I also took the homework books she had studied, including "Four Books and Five Classics", various history books, classics, and a thick stack of books. The annotations on each book were all written by Yin Huaixi with time, energy, and painstaking efforts. down.

He also took Shao Yuqin.

Seal of Peach Blossom Jelly.

Various paintings.

Sculpture.

...

Facts speak louder than words, whether Zhou Linghuai is good or not Yu Youyao has already been revealed from these little things, even his own brother is not as good as him.

"You guys," Mrs. Xie said with a complicated expression. She always felt that Zhou Linghuai's attitude towards his granddaughter was a bit wrong, not like an ordinary cousin relationship: "Have you always been this close?"

Is it a foreigner?

Madam Yu just stared at her like this, conniving?

Yu Youyao nodded: "Grandmother asked me to learn more from my cousin, saying that my cousin is very capable, and what you learn is what you earn, and you will benefit from it in the future."

This is true, and it is hard for Mrs. Xie to say more.

The granddaughter has grown up with her cousin, if she were Mrs. Yu, she might turn a blind eye or close her eyes, as long as there is no mistake in etiquette on the surface, she might not be arrested.

Anyway, etiquette is for outsiders to see.

Which is closed to live.

Xie's mansion bought a house in Beijing, and they only stayed in the mansion for lunch and then left.

Yu Youyao returned to Xiaotang.

In the next few days, many people came to worship one after another. Yu Youyao and Yu Shanyan brought their younger siblings to wear sackcloth and filial piety. The men and women knelt in front of the grandmother's spirit on each side. When guests came to worship, if they were men, they would You Yu Shanyan, with the youngest brother at home, got up to meet the ceremony, saw off the guests, and knelt back before the coffin.

If it's a female guest, Yu Youyao's side will greet her.

After a few days, Yu Youyao's waist was about to be broken.

In a blink of an eye, Mrs. Yu's first seven days were over.

Xie's mansion came to the door again and looked for the old uncle in the clan.

Mrs. Xie took the preemptive action and took out the letter of guarantee written by Mrs. Yu herself, with the signatures of several elders of the Yu clan on it.

"How Roujia got there back then, your Yu Manor knows very well. It is said that a couple of one day is a couple of hundred days of kindness, but Roujia's body is not cold, and Yu Zongzheng can't even wait for this hundred days of kindness as a couple, and he doesn't care about the affection of his in-laws." , during the Roujia filial piety period, we welcome new people into the mansion, and our family has endured it."

As soon as this remark came out, not to mention that Yu Zongzheng couldn't hold his head up, even the elders of the Yu clan were ashamed.

Xie Roujia was a good girl who died within three or four years after marrying into the Yu Mansion. Anyway, the Yu Mansion has already done something wrong.

Later, Yu Zong kept the matter of remarrying the Yang family during the filial piety period, and concealed it from the Xie family.

Although the Xie family could not interfere with Yu Zongzheng's remarriage, Xie Roujia was the original wife, and the remarriage had to ask the deceased wife's family first, which was in accordance with the etiquette.

Therefore, it was a big deal back then.

Originally, the Xie family endured Xie Roujia's early death for the sake of their granddaughter, but later learned that Yu Zong was about to remarry during the filial piety period, so he directly forced him to come to Xie's house and demanded an explanation from the Xie family.

The remarriage has already been decided, but Yang hasn't gotten married yet.

Mrs. Xie caught the fault of the Yu Mansion and wanted to take his granddaughter back to Quanzhou.

Old Madam Yu lost her confidence because of her wrongdoing, so she could only ask her clan for help.

It was also from the family who came forward to break up with Mrs. Xie. Because of the injustice of the Xie family, they were worried that the trouble would go too far. In the future, the granddaughter would be in the mansion and the family. However, he also forced Mrs. Yu to write a letter of guarantee to treat Yu Youyao kindly.

There is a clear statement in the guarantee letter, if the Yu family violates it, Yu Youyao will be allowed to return to the mother's family.

At that time, several clan elders in the clan signed their names.

Thirteen years later, the old matter of the Xie Mansion was brought up again.

It was still in the old lady's filial piety period, and the guarantee letter written by the old lady was taken out.

The old patriarch had a bad premonition in his heart.

The old lady Xie raised her daughter and cried bitterly on the spot: "Let your Yu family be ungrateful and ungrateful, slap our face one after another, and trample our face on the ground. Patience, Roujia has already gone, we still have to take care of Roujia's desperate efforts to give birth to a daughter, we can't let this child be at home, not a human being inside and outside, eating raw rice..."

Regardless of face, the old lady wailed loudly on the spot, crying so much that everyone in the Yu Mansion and even the Yu Clan was exhausted, and when it came to her mouth to argue, she couldn't say anything.

Yu Zongzheng suddenly felt that there were burrs on the top of the chair, and he sat on pins and needles for a while, and he didn't even dare to lift his head.

It's not that he has a good temper, but that Mrs. Xie is still his mother-in-law and an elder in name, and he doesn't have the right to intervene when the elders talk. What's more, the Yu Mansion doesn't care if the words are spread out.

Wang's eyes were also red, and she cried: "For Xiaoyaoyao, my sister-in-law donated 30% of the property under her name to the Yu clan, and 20% of the property was donated to Yu Mansion. When merchant ships come to Beijing, all kinds of gifts are brought into your mansion in whole horse-drawn carriages, and the rituals of festivals and festivals have never been done before. It's convenient, our Xie Mansion has devoted our heart and soul to your Yu Mansion, just to give little Yao'er a place to settle down."

These words are all true.

Every time the Xie Mansion sent gifts, there was a gift list to keep. These Celestial Clans had already helped Yu Youyao clean up the old lady's belongings, and they were all placed in the Anshou Hall.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the patriarch's family hurriedly said: "Grandmother in-law, please don't be annoyed, we can understand how you feel sorry for your granddaughter, we have something to say."
