All Hail Cousin Brother Chapter 315 - 315 You Harmed Brother Si

Chapter 315 - 315 You Harmed Brother Si

315 You Harmed Brother Si

Looking at Young Miss’s calm and indifferent expression, Chun Xiao thought that Young Master was usually so calm, and her fl.u.s.tered mood also calmed down.

Yu Youyao rushed to the Songtao Courtyard in the front courtyard with Chun Xiao and a few burly old maids.

At this moment, Songtao Courtyard was already in chaos.

The two of them guarded the door. There were maidservants in the courtyard.

Yu Youyao suddenly pursed her lips. She pulled out the matching cards at her waist and handed them to an older mother. “Mother Tao, Fourth Brother drowned. This is no small matter. Take my token and gather all the servants who have entered and left the Songtao Courtyard today. Bring them to the side courtyard. Send someone to guard the door. Without my instructions, no one is allowed to enter or leave.”

Chun Xiao’s father, Tao Da, was a strong drayman in her grandmother’s house.

Her mother was originally the mother in charge of the north courtyard. Everyone called her Mother Tao. Later, when Yu Youyao moved into the Jade Courtyard, her grandmother gave Chun Xiao and her family to her.

Madam Tao was round and had a smile on her face. She was very amiable. “Young Miss, don’t worry. I know the severity of this matter. I’ll definitely settle it for you.”

Yu Youyao smiled. “I’m naturally relieved that you’re doing your job.”

When the servants saw the right token, they did not dare to disobey. However, there were many people from the main courtyard in the Songtao Courtyard today when Yu Shansi moved in.

It would be more appropriate to leave this matter to Mother Tao.

After giving her instructions, Yu Youyao led Chun Xiao into the house.

Madam Yang’s cries could be heard from the inner room. “It’s been so long and he hasn’t woken up yet. It’s such a hot day, but his body is gloomy and cold. Where’s the imperial doctor? Why isn’t he here yet? Quick, quickly send someone to rush him. My son, what should we do…”

Towards the end, even her voice became sharp.

Yu Youyao lifted the curtain and entered the house.

Yang Shuwan sat by the bed and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. She cried her heart out. She really looked like the most pitiful parent in the world.

Yu Jianjia was also sitting by the bed. Her thin body was trembling slightly, and her eyes were filled with fear. She did not know if it was because she was too worried about her younger brother, but she was so frightened that she forgot to worry about him.

Yu Youyao quickly looked at the bed.

Yu Shansi, who was less than seven years old, was lying on the bed in a daze. He had a small naked body, and his face was pale. His stomach was bulging, and he looked terrifying.

Nanny Qin, who was beside Yu Jianjia, knelt on the bed and kept pressing on Yu Shansi’s stomach.

Yu Shansi closed his mouth and did not spit out any water.

At this rate, something might happen to him soon.

Nanny Xu had yet to arrive, and no one knew when the imperial physician would arrive. Yu Shansi was young and had a short life, so he couldn’t afford to lose his life.

Yu Youyao suddenly tightened her grip on her handkerchief and turned to Chun Xiao. “Gather all the servants in the Songtao Courtyard and ask if anyone can treat drowning.”

Even if Nanny Xu rushed over, she did not know if she could save him from drowning.

Today, there was a small move to the Songtao Courtyard, and many servants in the residence were busy. There were three people who were as smart as Zhuge Liang. Perhaps there was a way.

Chun Xiao ran out.

Hearing Yu Youyao’s voice, Yang Shuwan suddenly looked up and saw that Yu Youyao had come to the Songtao Courtyard at some point. Immediately, new and old hatred surged in her heart.

She stared at Yu Youyao.

Perhaps it was because she had cried too hard and was too sad, but her eyes were swollen like walnuts. When she glared at someone, they were like dead fish eyes. Her eyes were bloodshot and flashed with a terrifying ferocity.

Yu Youyao was also shocked. “Mother, Nanny Xu will…”

Before she could finish speaking, Yang Shuwan shrieked, “Yu Youyao, you scourge. It’s not enough that you harmed Jia Jia and me, but you don’t even let Brother Si off…”

After Brother Si fell into the water, she was burning with anxiety. All she could think about was that during this period of time, everything that had happened in the residence was due to Yu Youyao and she definitely harmed Brother Si.

Yu Youyao frowned when she heard this.

Yang Shuwan’s expression was fierce, and she wished she could tear Yu Youyao apart and chew her. “Tell me, did you harm Brother Si? How can you be so heartless? No matter what, Brother Si is still your younger brother. He’s only a little more than six years old. He’s such a young person.” At this point, she broke down and cried. “Return Brother Si to me…”

Yu Youyao interrupted her. “Mother, please be careful with your words. You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t spout nonsense.”

Yang Shuwan screamed, “Yu Youyao, how dare you quibble? The Songtao Courtyard is…”

Yu Youyao’s eyes immediately turned red, and even her voice became hoa.r.s.e. “I was in charge of repairing the Songtao Courtyard. On the first day that Fourth Brother moved into the courtyard, he fell into the water. As his eldest sister, I can’t absolve myself of the blame. Even if Mother blames me, I have nothing to say.”

Yang Shuwan’s eyes darkened. She had originally wanted to use the matter of the Songtao Courtyard’s renovation to question Yu Youyao, but she did not expect Yu Youyao to s.n.a.t.c.h her words and pretend to be innocent and magnanimous. She was really disgusted.

Yu Youyao changed the topic. “But Mother said that I harmed Fourth Brother, and I won’t admit it. Father was the one who instructed me to repair the Songtao Courtyard. No matter how bold I am, I don’t dare to be negligent.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the others in the room agreed deeply.

Eldest Master was the one who asked Eldest Miss to repair the Songtao Courtyard, so he was also responsible. If anything happened to Fourth Young Master, Eldest Miss would be implicated.

Fourth Young Master was Eldest Master’s only legitimate son. Eldest Master treated Fourth Young Master like his jewel.

When something happened to Fourth Young Master, no one in the residence could bear the responsibility. Anyone with a brain could not do anything about it.

Yang Shuwan was so angry that she felt dizzy. “Yu Youyao, Brother Si is your father’s only son. If anything happens to him, the first person who won’t let you off is your father.”

Yu Youyao said hoa.r.s.ely, “Mother, you’re right. I’m also responsible for what happened to Fourth Brother. Don’t worry, Mother. I’ll definitely investigate this matter and give you and Father an explanation. However, if there’s no evidence, it’s better not to speak nonsense. It’s not a big deal to taint my innocence, but it’ll also damage your dignity.”

Instead of letting Madam Yang question her about the repairs in Songtao Courtyard, it was better for her to take the initiative to take responsibility.

This way, she would still have the initiative and could shut Yang Shuwan up.

Yang Shuwan was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She suddenly raised her voice and said in a sharp voice, “Explanation? How are you going to explain yourself? Brother Si is unconscious now. How can it be settled with just an explanation?”

Her aggressive att.i.tude made Yu Youyao’s eyes tremble and she cried on the spot. “Then what do you want? As long as I can make Fourth Brother recover and calm Mother down, I’m willing to do anything you ask me to do.”
