Old Madam Yu took the teacup and lowered her head to take a sip.

Only then did Yu Jianjia say, “Old Madam Lai entered the residence with the people from the manor, so I specially brought her over to visit Grandmother.” She bit her lip lightly, feeling guilty and uneasy. “It’s also because I’m insensible. I’ve troubled Grandmother with such a small matter.’

Old Madam Yu looked at her steadily. “Your words are always louder than your actions. You know that it’s inappropriate to do this, but you still want to do it. After that, when you open your mouth and talk, you’ll show how polite you are. If you’re really polite, you shouldn’t have done anything inappropriate. After doing something inappropriate, you still want to sugarcoat with your words. You have to know that you can’t rely on your mouth alone. You have to match your words and actions. You’re inferior to your big sister in this.”

Yu Jianjia’s face turned pale. She really did not expect the Matriarch to embarrass her on the spot.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly. She bit her lip and lowered her head gently. “I’ll follow Grandmother’s instructions.’

Old Madam Yu waved her hand. “From tomorrow onwards, you don’t have to come to my house to show your filial piety. Make a few more trips to the

Tranquil Heart Residence. Your mother doesn’t have much time left.”

With that, she ignored her.

Yu Jianjia’s weak body couldn’t help but tremble slightly after being taught a lesson. A surge of resentment rose in her heart.

In the past, she was not allowed to go to Tranquil Heart Residence, but now, she was despised for going too little.

At this moment, Qing Xiu led Old Madam Lai and Bai Ye into the house.

Old Madam Lai was dressed in gray clothes with patches on them, but they were still considered neat. When she saw Matriarch, she quickly knelt on the ground. “Greetings, Matriarch and Eldest Miss.”

Bai Ye quickly knelt down with her.

Old Madam Yu said calmly, “Rise!”

Old Madam Lai quickly thanked Matriarch Lai for her kindness before getting up.

However, Yu Youyao noticed that Old Madam Lai’s eyebrows were lowered and she did not raise them at all. She was so respectful that she did not look like she was a good citizen who had left the resident. Instead, she looked like a servant who had served the residence for most of her life.

The etiquette was unexpected.

Bai Ye also stood up with her grandmother and consciously looked at Young Miss. Seeing that Young Miss’ eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry, but she was forcing a smile, she guessed that her grandmother had caused trouble for Young Miss after entering the residence. Perhaps Young

Miss had been taught a lesson by the Matriarch and quickly stood behind her.

She was grateful to her young miss again.

Old Madam Yu asked Old Madam Lai about some family matters and sent her away with the excuse that she was tired.

Madam Yu turned to look at her granddaughter. “Did you notice anything?”

Yu Youyao shook her head. “Old Madam Lai is very cautious. Her words and actions are appropriate and there are no flaws.” At this point, she hesitated for a moment before saying, “There’s generally no problem, but I feel that those who are being too cautious would definitely be problematic.”

She had a vague feeling that Old Madam Lai’s entry into the residence was very likely related to her grandmother. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have looked like she was facing “a great enemy”.

If she was not wrong, Old Madam Lai’s request to leave the residence back then was not as simple as it seemed.

However, her grandmother was also very puzzled about Old Madam Lai entering the residence. This was a little strange.

Old Madam Yu frowned. “Since she has the intention to cause trouble, I’m afraid she won’t be able to live in peace if she doesn’t succeed. Let her be.” As she spoke, she sneered. “No matter what trouble she brings, it’s useless with me here.’

After leaving the north courtyard, Yu Jianjia stood on the white stone bridge and looked at the towering tree in the Jade Courtyard. Her pink and white lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Bai Ye and Old Madam Lai followed behind her obediently.

After returning to the courtyard, Yu Jianjia smiled and said to Bai Ye, “Let Ai Ye work harder these few days. You can also accompany your grandmother properly.”

Bai Ye knelt on the ground with a thud. “I’m willing to do anything to repay

Young Miss’ kindness.”

Yu Jianjia quickly helped Bai Ye up. “Serve me well in the future. Don’t say such silly things again.”

Bai Ye brought Old Madam Lai back to her room to settle down.

She shared a room with Ai Ye. As her grandmother wanted to enter the residence, she had a discussion with Ai Ye and asked her to squeeze into the room with the second-in-charge maidservants in the courtyard.

Ai Ye agreed obediently.

As soon as the door closed, Old Madam Lai’s expression relaxed. She quickly held her granddaughter’s hand and asked her softly if she was doing well in the residence.

Bai Ye said truthfully, “…Third Miss is gentle and kind, and has never criticized the servants. She’s also very understanding of the people around her. It’s also my blessing from three lifetimes that I can serve Third Miss…” She rambled on and said a lot of grateful words.

Old Madam Lai finally felt a little relieved and asked about the residence.

Bai Ye did not hide anything and said, “… Matriarch dotes on Eldest Miss. She treats Third Miss very coldly and doesn’t let her serve her. Even so, Third Miss still keeps saying that the Matriarch is good and Eldest Miss is kind.”

“But I have eyes. The things in the Matriarch’s house are moving into Eldest Miss’s house day by day, but I don’t see the Matriarch giving Third Miss anything. They’re both her granddaughters, but she favors one over the other.’

“Poor Third Miss. Her biological mother is sick, her younger brother is young, and the Master is busy with the government office. As the Second Miss of the residence, she still has to live according to others’ wishes. Even Fourth Miss, the daughter of a concubine, dares to climb over Third Miss’ head and abuse her power.”

On the day Eldest Miss was conferred the title of County Head of Shaoyi, she had followed behind Third Miss from afar and watched helplessly as Fourth Miss stomped her feet angrily at Third Miss.

At this point, Third Miss still had to endure it.

Old Madam Lai’s eyes flashed when she heard this.

When she greeted Old Madam Yu, she hurriedly glanced at Eldest Miss, who was sitting beside her. She was wearing a beautiful silver dress with a pomegranate flower design. It was made with the best exquisite cloud silk.

The surface of the fabric was woven with silver thread that was as thin as a needle. The green leaves of the pomegranate flower were woven with peacock feathers. Thin copper threads were woven into patterns that were like fire and pomegranate flowers. Even the branches on it were woven with gold. At a glance, they looked beautiful, making one unable to take their eyes off them.

Such clothes were what Eldest Miss Yu usually wore.

She could imagine just how luxurious her life in the residence was.

The bereaved eldest daughter of a widow was still superior to Third Miss Yu..
