Chapter 1958: Chapter 1958: Gone and Can’t See Anyone

However, when he thought about when he could seize control of this grand estate, he felt he should not burn it down, as he would eventually be the master here.

He couldn’t afford to lose too much.

"Just wait, I will come back!"

Taking a deep breath again, he heavily closed the curtain and settled himself in the carriage.

...

In Yue Chushui’s courtyard.

After welcoming everyone in, Yue Chushui went to the kitchen to bring out tea and snacks, and sat down with Lin Caisang and the others.

"Chushui, why is your courtyard so empty?"

As Lin Caisang walked along, she noticed other places filled with servants and maids, but upon reaching Yue Chushui’s courtyard, she saw no one and thus spoke out.

Could it be that Yue Chong treated his own son so harshly that there wasn’t even a single servant to attend to him?

"It’s because I don’t like having those servants and maids around, I chased them out," Yue Chushui explained with a smile to Lin Caisang.

Who would like to have some people constantly watching over them, then report everything they do to their original masters?

Naturally, he didn’t like it.

But if he were to dismiss those people and then hire some new servants himself, within the Yue Clan, that wouldn’t be so easy. Outsiders entering the Yue Clan would definitely be scrutinized regarding their background and character.

And with such scrutiny, who knows what sort of people might be bought off?

Thinking it over, he felt that taking care of his own life was enough, for, within the Yue Clan, apart from his grandmother, he didn’t consider those people as his kin.

Naturally, those people didn’t consider him as their kin either.

"Still, you shouldn’t be without any attendants," Lin Caisang said.

"There will be some eventually."

Yue Chushui smiled and responded.

"Sister Sangsang, brother-in-law, I have spread out people to look for him, as you instructed, but... I don’t have a portrait of my uncle; searching for someone like this is like looking for a needle in a haystack, quite difficult."

Recalling the previous letter mentioning the search for his uncle, he had indeed fostered some connections over the past year, but the Illusion Continent was vast, finding someone here without even a portrait was challenging, even with one.

"I have a portrait, I’ll give it to you later," Lin Caisang said.

"Okay."

Upon hearing her response, Yue Chushui complied.

"Chushui, when will your grandmother be free? Since we’ve come, we should pay her a visit," Sui Zimo mentioned, looking at Yue Chushui.

They were Yue Chushui’s support in the Yue Clan. Having come, it made no sense not to meet the elder.

They had already met Yue Chong and Luo Mianyi and felt no particular fondness; meeting them again wouldn’t make a difference, but Yue Chushui also had a grandmother, reportedly treating him well, so they should definitely meet her.

"Grandmother should be napping at this time; going there won’t let us see her," Yue Chushui said.

"Sister Sangsang, brother-in-law, please sit for a while. I’ll go cook, and after having our meal, we can visit her without haste."

Saying this, he stood up, ready to go cook.

"Shijian, Shishu, you go," Lin Caisang looked towards the two, instructing.

"Yes, Mistress."

The two stood up and turned to Yue Chushui, asking him to lead them to the kitchen.

After the three had left, Lin Changhong looked towards the door, somewhat lost in thought. After quite a while, he finally turned his head back to look at his sister.
