After hearing this, Zhang sneered in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. "Zhi Zhou has always been honest, he shouldn't mess around with others. When he comes back, I'll ask him about it."
"Aunt, please don't say that I said that. I was also worried about my third brother." Yu Jinshu hurriedly distanced himself from the matter.
Zhang nodded, "I saved it. Jinshu, you are the elder brother, so you should help your aunt to take care of Zhizhou more in the academy."
"Don't worry, aunt. We are brothers and will naturally take care of each other." Yu Jinshu responded fluently.
"Jinshu is a sensible person." Zhang praised him, turned around and left. She returned to the west room with a gloomy expression. She said to Yu Qiaoshan who was teasing his granddaughter, "Just now, I heard Zhao Xueru from across the room saying that our Zhizhou is going to the county school. Will our mother send Yu Jinshu to the county school as well?"
Yu Qiaoshan wiped the saliva from the corner of Little Platycodon's mouth and said, "We sent Jinyan to the county school before the New Year, and all the money in the family was spent. Don't think about it. What delayed Zhizhou from coming back?"
"He must have gone out with his classmates from the academy and will be back late. Yu Jinshu is so cunning and slippery that he never tells the truth. He even said bad things about our Zhizhou in front of me, saying that Zhizhou made a good friend who was idle. Don't I know this about our own child?"
Zhang got angry when she said this. "Alas, these two children have inherited your personality. They are both very honest. If they were more thoughtful and could please me, their lives at home would be better."
"Why are you saying all this? Isn't it good to be down-to-earth and have no bad intentions?" Yu Qiaoshan pinched the little Platycodon in his arms, "My dear granddaughter, isn't what grandpa said right? Being honest and capable is better than anything else, right?"
The three-year-old kid didn’t understand what his grandfather was saying. He giggled and nodded, waving his little hands to grab Yu Qiaoshan’s bearded chin.
Zhao took the little Platycodon from Yu Qiaoshan's arms and said with a loving smile, "Come, let grandma hug her. How can she understand what you are saying? If our mother is really partial and sends Jinshu to the county school as well, I will definitely not agree this time."
After Yu Jiao returned to the east room, she went into Yu Qizhe's room to continue practicing calligraphy. Yu Ruhai followed her and pretended to ask Yu Mengshan about his health as if nothing had happened. Without saying a few words, he couldn't wait to go into Yu Qizhe's room.
"Meng girl, are you practicing calligraphy? Don't write for now. Come here, let's discuss tomorrow's consultation." Yu Ruhai forced a hypocritical smile and spoke in a kind tone.
Yu Jiao didn't stop writing, and didn't even raise her head. "If you have anything to discuss, just say it."
Yu Ruhai didn't expect Yu Jiao to be so disrespectful. The two of them hadn't directly torn their faces before, and he still had something to gain from Yu Jiao. Yu Ruhai glanced at Yu Qizhe and saw that he was still concentrating on reading, so he forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, it's just that carbuncle. Do you really have a cure? How confident are you that you can cure it?"
Yu Jiao put down the last stroke, blew on the words she had just written, put down the wolf-hair brush in her hand, sneered, looked up at Yu Ruhai and said, "Fifty percent sure."
Yu Ruhai's face changed, and he asked worriedly, "Only 50%?"
Yu Jiao said calmly, "If I can give you 50% of the consultation fee, then you will be 100% sure. If I can't give you the consultation fee, then you will have no chance at all!"
"You..." Yu Ruhai was so angry that he almost said something without thinking and was about to scold Yu Jiao, but he still suppressed the embarrassment of being teased, but the smile on his face disappeared, "Meng girl, you have already married into our Yu family. What does a woman need money? The family has no shortage of food and drink for you! Our Yu family has always been run by your grandmother. The money earned by Qizhe's father and your uncle and third uncle is all in your grandmother's hands. If you really need money, I will give it to you when the time comes."
