Not long after Yu Jiao returned to the yard, Liu Yaoyu came over.
"How is my elder sister?" She didn't dare to hang around Liu Yaozhen. Although she cared about her, she was afraid of saying something wrong, so she could only come over to ask Yu Jiao.
Yu Jiao asked Jianjia to put the herbs brought back from Pingliang Prefecture back in the warehouse, changed into a light dress, and said, "It's okay. After seeing Cui Mubai's concubine, my elder sister must have given up."
"What?" Liu Yaoyu widened her eyes. "Have you seen Cui Erna's concubine?" Liu Yaoyu didn't even call him brother-in-law.
Yu Jiao nodded.
Liu Yaoyu asked, "How is his concubine giving birth? Is she really pregnant?"
Yu Jiao recalled Yue Lian's beautiful appearance and said, "She is quite pretty. She is more than three months pregnant."
Liu Yaoyu's face changed when she heard this. "Doesn't that mean the two of them were together before my sister left Beijing?" She said angrily, "Cui Qiong said in the letter that my brother-in-law was seriously ill. I thought he was faking his concubine, but it turns out that woman is really pregnant."
Yu Jiao didn't know what to say, "Eldest sister has divorced Cui Mubai."
When Liu Yaozhen was mentioned, Liu Yaoyu suddenly lost her temper, her face full of melancholy, "I think my elder sister won't be able to recover for a while. My elder sister's heart is with my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law divorced his wife and took a concubine. Even if my elder sister is upset, she is more worried about my brother-in-law's health."
"We haven't paid our respects to grandmother since we came back. My eldest sister is feeling sad. Let's go to Baoshou Hall to pay our respects to grandmother first." Yu Jiao straightened her dress and said to Liu Yaoyu.
"Okay." Liu Yaoyu followed Yu Jiao to Baoshou Hall. She didn't like to go to her grandmother in the past. This time when she came back from a long trip, she didn't even think of going to her grandmother to talk first. No wonder her mother always said that Yu Jiao was calm and thoughtful.
Yu Jiao asked Jianjia to find a box to put a hundred-year-old ginseng and a dried Tianshan snow lotus in it, and she gave one of them to Liu Yaoyu.
After Liu Yaoyu took it, she felt more and more that she had to learn more from Yu Jiao in the future, otherwise she, the older sister, would really become the younger sister.
The air in Baoshou Hall is now filled with sachets made of medicinal herbs by Yu Jiao. Smelling them makes one feel refreshed. Old Lady Liu was very happy to see Yu Jiao and her friend coming to greet them. The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren talked for a while, and then Old Lady Liu kept the two of them in Baoshou Hall for dinner.
Yu Jiao took the old lady's pulse and found that she was in good health. Her chronic illness had become less severe after Yu Jiao's treatment. Old lady Liu herself said that she coughed less at night recently and felt much lighter, not as dizzy as before.
While we were eating, Madam Liu came in and said, "The master is here."
"Go get another set of bowls and chopsticks."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yu walked in. He had just finished his official duties and came back from the cabinet. He was still wearing his official uniform: "Mother."
Yu Jiao and Liu Yaoyu stood up: "Hello, father."
Madam Liu smiled and said, "Please sit down and eat first."
"Have you visited Yaozhen? Is she okay?" The Liu family does not adhere to the principle of not talking while eating or sleeping, but Old Madam Liu is also concerned about Liu Yaozhen.
Liu Yu nodded. As soon as he returned home, he went to his eldest daughter's courtyard and gave her the divorce letter: "I saw that she cried a lot. I think she will be fine after a few days."
As a father, he naturally felt sorry for his daughter, but there was nothing he could do when faced with such a situation.
Madam Liu nodded and said to Yu Jiao and Yao Yu, "You should spend more time with your elder sister during this period. She is pregnant and needs your care."
The second half of the sentence was addressed to Yu Jiao, who responded, "Don't worry, grandma. I've been checking my elder sister's pulse these days, and she and the fetus are both healthy."
"That's good." Old Madam Liu felt relieved.
After the meal, Yu Jiao and Liu Yaoyu stood up to go back to the courtyard, but Liu Yu called them back, "Yaoyu, go back first. I have something to say to the third girl."
Yu Jiao noticed it while they were eating, and Liu Yu looked at her several times, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
After Liu Yaoyu left, Mama Liu brought in some scented tea, and Liu Yu spoke up, "Third girl, Yu Zhanxing has asked the emperor to grant him a marriage."
Yu Jiao didn't understand. A trace of confusion flashed across her almond-shaped eyes. Yu Qizhe asked the emperor to grant him a marriage?
"Who is he going to marry?" Yu Jiao asked.
Liu Yu said: "It is you he wants to marry."
"You mean the emperor granted a marriage between Yu Wulang and San Yatou?" Old Lady Liu was surprised.
