When the emperor conferred the title of County Head to her, the first sentence of the imperial edict was about loyalty, being filial and accumulating kindness and virtue. Eldest Son kept saying that he was using kindness and virtue to prove his point. Old Madam Yu suddenly opened her eyes and stared at Yu Zongzheng. "You're right. How can our family fall behind in doing good and accumulating virtue?"
Yu Zongzheng was delighted. "Mother is indeed righteous."
As soon as he left, Old Madam Yu said weakly, "Help me back to my room."
Nanny Liu helped Matriarch Liu up. Matriarch Liu had recuperated for a few days, but because of Eldest Master's words, her spirits had weakened again.
After returning to her room, Old Madam Yu asked Nanny Liu to take out the Four Treasures of the Study. "Even if the emperor wants to request a royal order for Madam Xie, he has to see what Eldest Son thinks."
