Song Mingzhao frowned, but he still went over to take a look.
The woman ran over excitedly. “Young master, where’s the little girl who was with you just now? Where did she go? The doctor said that my son is fine. She was the one who saved him. I haven’t thanked her in person. Can you tell me where she went?”
Song Mingzhao’s expression was indifferent. “Since your son is fine, take good care of him in the future!”
With that, he turned and left.
The woman wanted to stop him, but Song Mingzhao was young and had an extraordinary aura, so she did not dare to be rash.
At this moment, Old Madam Liu stepped forward. “My young miss has already left. She asked me to give you the protective method for asthma.” As she stuffed a stack of papers into the woman’s hand, she said, “Although asthma can’t be cured completely, if you recuperate according to what my young miss wrote, you can reduce the number of episodes and reduce the symptoms.”
The woman had already learned from the doctor that her son’s illness could not be cured. Although she was glad that her son had survived, the few medicinal pills from the doctor made her feel despair.
Therefore, when she heard Old Madam Liu’s words, the woman couldn’t help but feel excited. “Really?”
Naturally, she believed the young miss’s words. After all, she had saved her son’s life. However, she was too excited and couldn’t react in time.
Old Madam Liu nodded. “That’s what my young miss said.” She placed another incense pill into the woman’s hand. “This is an incense pill. Just now, my young miss used this to save your son. Later, find a rope to hang it around your son’s neck. In the future, if his breathing isn’t comfortable or his nose isn’t feeling well, he can smell it to relieve his symptoms.”
The woman took it gratefully and knelt on the ground again. “Thank you, thank you so much…”
After Old Madam Liu left, the woman realized that she actually did not know her benefactor’s name!
Only then did she realize that she had encountered a living Bodhisattva.
After returning to the residence, Yu Youyao first went to An Shou Hall and recounted what had happened on the street.
When Old Madam Yu heard this, she smiled. “Although the carriages in the residence are often checked and repaired, there’s nothing in this world that’s foolproof. Accidents are inevitable.” At this point, she changed the topic.
“Fortunately, you met Heir Song. Otherwise, you would have been in trouble.” On such a hot day, it was unbearable to sit in a carriage and wait on the streets.
Yu Youyao nodded. “I’ve indeed troubled Young Master Song.”
She couldn’t hide the politeness in her tone.
Old Madam Yu understood, but she did not care. Song Mingzhao was an outsider. Even if they were family friends, a well-mannered daughter should be more obedient.
“Although Heir Song is older than you, you’re still of the same generation.
Prepare a thank-you gift later and thank him.”
It was obvious that she did not plan to interfere in the matters of the younger generation and let her granddaughter interact with Song Mingzhao.
Since her grandmother had already spoken, the matter of returning the gift was considered a clear path for her elders. It was not considered a private present, and it seemed even more logical.
Yu Youyao could only agree, but she also asked, “Then according to
Grandmother, how should we respond with etiquette?”
Old Madam Yu waved her hand. “You’ve arranged Mr. Xian Yun’s thank-you gift very well. You can handle this matter yourself!”
Yu Youyao could more or less guess why her grandmother wanted her to get close to the Zhenguo Marquis Residence. It was just that her grandmother’s attitude was unclear and she admired Song Mingzhao. She wanted to strengthen the foundation and treat the younger generation well. There was nothing special.
No matter how she looked at it, it seemed very ordinary.
This way, Yu Youyao was a little uncertain about her grandmother’s thoughts, so she couldn’t think too much about it, in case there were additional complications.
However, she was in charge of most of the matters in the residence. Since Song Mingzhao had helped her, she should be prepared to return the favor. Her grandmother had never interfered in the matters of the younger generation. Furthermore, the Song and Yu Residences were family friends, so their relationship should be close.
No matter how wary she was of Song Mingzhao, she couldn’t avoid etiquette. Yu Youyao could only come forward openly. “Grandmother, don’t worry.”
Actually, Yu Youyao was still young and did not understand the matters between men and women, so she naturally did not understand. It was true that Old Madam Yu wanted Yu Youyao to get close to the Zhenguo Marquis Residence, but Old Madam Yu doted on Yu Youyao. The more schemes she had, the more cautious and thorough she had to be, and the less she could put on airs.
She was even more cautious with Song Mingzhao.
It was also true that Old Madam Yu hoped that her granddaughter would interact more with Song Mingzhao, but she would definitely not let her granddaughter be in a passive position.
When a family had a daughter, hundreds of families would come to beg.
A good daughter did not have to worry about marrying. No one looked down on her.
After all, sincerity was often more precious than anything else in a marriage between two families.
Without sincerity, no matter how good the Zhenguo Marquis Residence was, she would definitely not let her granddaughter throw her face at Song Mingzhao.
Fortunately, her granddaughter was still young. She had to take her time to see if Song Mingzhao was sincere.
Therefore, this matter could not be rushed.
It was also because she was not in a hurry that Yu Youyao could not guess her grandmother’s thoughts, be it from the perspective of the relationship between the two families or from the perspective of a nightmare.
Old Madam Yu smiled and said, “Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. This is a good thing. As long as you know the severity of the matter.”
Her granddaughter was a proper person. When something happened on the street, she did not rush up. Instead, she asked the old maid to find out more before deciding if she wanted to interfere. For this alone, there was no need to worry.
The next day, Yu Youyao called Nanny Xu over early in the morning. “Heir Song helped me yesterday. I’ll have to trouble Nanny to prepare the thank-you gift.’ Nanny Xu’s heart skipped a beat. “I’ll show it to you when I’m ready.”
Did Old Madam Yu really not want to interfere in the matters of the younger generation, or did she have other plans?
However, Old Madam Yu was too scheming. Even if she had some schemes in her heart, she did not reveal them, so there was no way to spy on her. Naturally, it was not appropriate to say it clearly.
Nanny Xu composed herself and quickly prepared a gift list for Yu Youyao.
Yu Youyao took a look. The main gift was a good inkstone. It was elegant and proper. Song Mingzhao was a scholar, so it was appropriate.
She had prepared a few boxes of good supplements. These were common gifts and were standard.
Song Mingzhao had helped her, and the two families were close friends. This was all they had prepared. Although she was polite, it was inevitable that she would seem a little distant. It was a little unreasonable. Nanny Xu added some medicinal fragrances and medicinal tea that she had personally made. These meticulous things could express her sincerity and gratitude.
From the looks of it, it was quite thorough.
Yu Youyao nodded. “When it’s ready, send it to the Zhenguo Marquis
Residence.”
Nanny Xu prepared the gift according to the gift list and called Xia Tao over..
