âYouâ¦â Yang Shuwan stretched out her arm and was about to crawl forward.
Yu Youyao took a deep breath to calm herself down. âIf youâre divorced, youâll no longer be Yu Zongzhengs wife, Your daughter is neither a legitimate daughter nor a concubineâs daughter. She will be the daughter of a divorced wife. In terms of status, sheâs not even comparable to the daughter of a concubine. Her status canât even be compared to a concubine, and sheâll be in an awkward spot in the residence. In the future, she wonât even be able to marry the most ordinary poor scholar. She can only marry into a merchant family or be like her mother, become a second wife, or a concubineâ¦â
âY-Yu Youyao, you, you wonât die a good death. Youâll die miserablyâ¦â Yang Shuwan reached out to Yu Youyao as if she had gone crazy. As she vomited blood, she cursed her viciously.
Yu Youyao chuckled, her faint voice carrying a hint of coldness. âThe thing youâre most proud of in your life is probably marrying into the Yu Residence and becoming an official wife.â Her lips curled up slightly, revealing a trace of malice, âBut so what? Youâve been abandoned and will quickly return to where you came from. Even if you die, you wonât be able to enter the Yu familyâs ancestral grave. I donât think your maiden family will care if you live or die. After you die, youâll probably be about the same as the old servant in front of you. Youâll just be rolled up in a rotten straw mat and thrown it into the mass grave. When your corpse is fresh, itâll be bitten by a wild dog and pecked by birdsâ¦
âUhâ¦â Yang Shuwan glared at Yu Youyao.
Yu Youyao chuckled. âListen carefully. As long as l, Yu Youyao, am alive, your daughter, Yu Jianjia, will never be able to make a comeback in this lifetime.â
Yang Shuwan screamed, âNoâ¦â
Yu Youyao tilted her head and glanced at Nanny Liu. âGet Madam Yang to press her fingerprint on the divorce letter.â
âNo, no, I wonât press itâ¦â Yang Shuwan shook her head crazily and clenched her fists tightly.
Two old maids stepped forward and pressed her to the ground. They pulled her hand away tightly, grabbed her fingers, and pressed them into the red ink box.
After the fingerprint was pressed, Nanny Liu handed the divorce letter to Eldest Miss.
Yu Youyao took a look. âThereâs no time like the present. Nanny Liu, Iâll have to trouble you to make a trip to the government office to settle all the matters of suspending your wife.â
Nanny Liu saw that it was already dark outside. Now that the government office was closed, if she wanted to do this, she would definitely have to knock on the door and spend some money.
Yu Youyao instructed the two old maids, âGo prepare a carriage, pack two sets of clothes, and five taels of silver. When Nanny Liu returns, take the divorce letter and send Madam Yang to her family.â
After the Yang family was convicted, their family wealth was confiscated, and the master was exiled. The rest of the family were still living in the capital, so there was no need to trouble them. They could just send her over and be done with it.
After dealing with Yang Shuwan, Yu Youyao left the Tranquil Heart Residence. The sky was already dark. âWhat time is it?â
Chun Xiao replied, âItâs half past seven.â
Yu Youyao stood at the door of the Tranquil Heart Residence and looked at the deep and endless corridor in front of her. It was as if she was suffocating. Suddenly, she felt out of breath.
Cousin, I canât hold on much longer.
She took a step forward, and the lights in front of her swayed and spun. Suddenly, she was supported by a strong force. Chun Xiaoâs worried voice sounded in her ear. âYoung Miss, are you alright!â
Only then did Yu Youyao feel a little dizzy. âIâm fine. Go back!â
The two old maids took lanterns from under the porch and walked in front to illuminate the way.
Yu Youyao walked slowly along this long corridor. As it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, there were many lanterns hanging in the residence. The hazy lights could not illuminate the night, and it was a waning scene.
Nanny Xu was waiting at the door. Under the bright candlelight, Yu Youyao!s face was pale, and her forehead and the tip of her nose were covered in sweat.
Yu Youyao had never hidden anything from her.
What had happened in the Yu Residence all day and what Yu Youyao had endured could be seen from her pale and thin figure,
Nanny Xuâs heart ached and she felt terrible.
Yu Youyao let go of Chun Xiao and suddenly threw herself into Nanny Xuâs arms, wailing. âAuntie, Auntie, how can they be so badâ¦â
Tainting her background and making her the abandoned daughter of the Yu family was not Yu Jianjiaâs ultimate goal.
Yu Jianjia was crazy. She wanted to raise her into a medicinal catalyst like in her nightmare. She wanted to use her blood as a catalyst and her heart as medicine. She wanted to drink her blood and eat her flesh. She wanted her life.
She was not afraid of Divine Physician Xie.
However, under the influence of the nightmare, her heart often palpitated. She would panic and even feel suffocated. For some reason, she felt a sharp pain in her chest. She did not know if there was a problem with her body or if it was mental fearâ¦
Nanny Xu stroked the little girlâs hair and softened her voice. âDonât be afraid. Young Master will be back soon.â
Matriarch Yu heaved a sigh of relief. Yu Zongzheng could not do anything to
Yu Youyao.
When Young Master returned, it was even more impossible for Yu Zongzheng to do anything to Yu Youyao.
Madam Yang and her daughter had made a bad move.
She arrogantly believed that Yu Youyao was like an ordinary woman from an aristocratic family. After being despised by her father, she had no way out.
However, she did not know that Yu Youyaoâs greatest reliance was King Yue Fei, who had a large army and power.
Nanny Xu accompanied Yu Youyao for a while before Yu Youyao stopped crying. She returned to the house to freshen up and change into dry clothes. She looked a little more energetic.
Thinking about how Yu Youyao had not eaten much all day, Nanny Xu personally cooked medicinal cuisine. Yu Youyao did not have much of an appetite. After being coaxed to eat a small bowl, she could not eat anymore, but at least she had eaten something.
At this moment, Xia Taoâs voice sounded from outside the door. âYoung Miss,
Matriarch has woken up and wants to see you.â
Yu Youyao did not delay at all. She quickly left the house and brought Chun Xiao to Matriarchâs house. After hearing Nanny Liuâs story, she had some resentment towards her grandmother.
It was just that her grandmother really doted on her.
For more than ten years, the person who had been protecting her was her grandmother.
The person who had always doted on her was still her grandmother.
Old Madam Yu lay on the couch lifelessly. As soon as she saw her granddaughter, she began to cry. âHowâs the family?â
Yu Youyao knew that her grandmother wanted to ask if Yu Zongzheng had done anything to her. Her eyes were red as she said, âGrandmother suddenly fainted. Father was so frightened that he didnât care about anything. Nanny Li bumped into the corner of the table and she was gone. Father was instigated by Madam Yang and angered Grandmother, which made Grandmother so anxious. I asked Nanny Liu to write a divorce letterâ¦â
This answer also told her grandmother that she was fine. She was still in charge of the family and was already fighting back. She would not suffer.
Old Madam Yu was stunned for a long time before she suddenly smiled. âOkay, okay. Cough, cough. Sheâs the daughter of a divorced wife. What else can she do in the future? Hahaha, good, this is a drastic moveâ¦â
As she laughed and cried, tears streamed down her face..
