All Hail Cousin Brother

Dongmei smiled: "Miss has too many things, how can you know everything, the old lady used to keep these two night pearls for you, and she didn't mention them deliberately, this moon white pearl is called "Yuejiao" "It was given to your mother, Mrs. Xie, by the grandfather of the Xie residence when Mrs. Xie was born."

It was originally her mother's dowry. After her mother passed away, her mother's things were left to her. I can't blame her for not knowing about it.

Yu Youyao suddenly felt that this orb was more cordial, and smiled with frowning eyes: "What is the name of this warm yellow pearl, and what is its origin?"

Even though it is the size of a lychee, it is also very rare. If you can get one, it will be regarded as a family heirloom, but she has two!

It is also the Xie Mansion in Quanzhou that has been inherited for a long time, so there is such a treasure.

Dongmei continued: "This one is called "Ri Xi". It was given to you by your grandfather, Mr. Xie, after Miss was born. It means "the pearl in the palm of your hand." , The old lady has been helping to collect it, and after the young lady took care of her own mother's dowry, the old lady gradually sent some things to the Yuyuyuan for the slaves to store them properly."

Speaking of this, Dongmei thought of what the old lady said when she called her to her—

"Once upon a time when Xiaoyao was young, she didn't dare to leave these things in her custody, lest she would not know the importance and be deceived by others. Now Xiaoyao can manage by herself, these things must be taken care of by herself. ."

"I'm old, and I can't stand anything even if I can. When it comes to that time, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for the things in my room to get into the hands of Xiaoyao, so it is the Xiefu from Quanzhou who came over with the list. If you push a dead person like me, will the Xie Mansion still be in trouble?"

"Let's not talk about it, I care about my grandmother's life and reputation, and I have to pinch my nose to admit it. Some things should be planned early."

Every word and every sentence is planned for the eldest lady, but she is truly a mother, and it is not surprising to think of the filial piety of the eldest lady to the old lady.

She had mentioned this to the young lady before, but the young lady had a lot of good things in her hands, and she didn't pay much attention to the external things. In addition, the young lady was also very busy at that time, so she probably didn't take it to heart.

"Pearl in the palm of your hand," Yu Youyao took "Sun Xi" again, holding it in his hand and looking at it, the bright smile on his face and the bright light of Sun Xi complemented each other, making it extremely splendid: "Grandfather, grandmother, and uncles, watch Brothers hurt me."

Dongmei also smiled: "Isn't it!"

Yu Youyao asked curiously: "Rixi, Yuejiao, it's really good to get this name, are these two night pearls a pair?"

One month is white, one day is yellow, and even the name is beautiful. No matter how you look at it, there is a history.

Dongmei nodded: "I heard that it is, but the old lady is not very clear, and only mentioned a few things to the slaves. If you want to know, you can also write to Xie's house and ask." After saying that, she looked at the lady's hand. The embroidery shed above: "Today, I was also watching Miss embroidering things at night. I was worried that the light was not good and hurt my eyes, so I thought of these two night pearls and brought them to look at Miss's eyes."

The night pearl is bright and dazzling, but it does not dazzle the eyes.

Yu Youyao carefully took the "Moonlight" and put it on the candlestick on the side. The bright white light dispelled the dimness of the candlelight, making it soft and bright: "This is really good."

She turned her head to look at the other "Sun Xi", and a smile appeared on her lips.

Yu Youyao embroidered for half an hour under the light of "Moonbright" and "Sunshine", and then embroidered a piece of tung tree leaf. She turned the embroidery face, and there were also two yellow-green sycamore flowers on the other side. The stitches were flat and tight. It also looks very beautiful.

Yu Youyao took the embroidery shed and asked Dongmei to put away the night pearl. Such a precious thing can't be placed outside, so that people can look at it, and it won't cause trouble.

On the second day, Yu Youyao learned the etiquette, had breakfast, and went to home school early.

Because of the birthday banquet, Yu Youyao did not go to school for five or six days.

Mr. Ye Nv took the exam recently. Yu Youyao had the "Spring and Autumn" from her cousin, and her cousin also gave her some pointers, but she answered them perfectly without any mistakes or omissions.

Mr. Ye Nv nodded with satisfaction: "I haven't missed the schoolwork, how is the piano art?"

Yu Youyao replied, "I learned a new piece again."

When Mr. Ye heard this, she showed a smile: "I heard that you are learning chess recently?"

Yu Youyao has been tested several times before, and found that every time she learns a new piece, she plays the old piece as well. She also knows that her cousin is a capable person, and she is also very interested in her piano skills. There is no need for her to deliberately take the test.

Speaking of this, Yu Youyao was ashamed, and quickly waved his hand: "Da, it's probably me, I have no talent in chess, so I only know how to play chess, but I don't know anything about chess and formations. My cousin said that Bian Yi's temperament is also good. of."

Mr. Ye Nv laughed when she heard it, and her pale face was like a green lotus emerging from the water, with a plain beauty: "Just learn it once, you don't have to be proficient, your cousin is right."

Originally, she thought that Miss Yu was one of the few talented women in the world. She could learn everything, be strong in everything, and excel at everything. Now that she knew that she was also not good at chess, she also thought she was very cute.

Yu Youyao nodded and said again: "The pen that Mr. gave me, I used it for a while yesterday, and it was very easy to use. Thank you Mr. for your trouble."

When she celebrated her birthday, Mrs. Ye didn't have to give her a special birthday present.

Mr. Ye Nv gave it away, and he sincerely regarded her as a disciple.

Mr. Ye Nv was a little surprised: "I thought you would use this five-purple and five-goat for a while, but I didn't think that you are very talented in calligraphy, and your entry is very fast, you can already use the five-purple and five-goat. , can you still make seven sheep and three purples in the future?"

My daughter's wrist strength is weaker, and it is difficult to write with a pen that is too soft, and the writing will be much slower.

Yu Youyao nodded: "I make five purples and five sheeps for a while, and then I use seven sheeps and three purples, so I don't need the whole sheep. I don't need to talk about it, and the writing is slow. I can't eat it."

Mr. Ye Nv also thinks this is good: "I will make you another seven sheep and three purples, but this time you can make your own materials. I don't have any good materials in hand."

Listening to Yu Youyao's meaning, these seven sheep and three purples will be used frequently in the future. Naturally, the better the material, the better the quality of the pens, and the longer the use time.

Inkstone and pen, the new is not as good as the old.

Yu Youyao was overjoyed, and did not refuse, she respectfully bowed to Mr. Ye Nu: "Thank you sir."

Between people, it is the love that you come to me to treat with sincerity. Mr. Ye Nv treats each other sincerely and treats her as a disciple. She also respects Mr. Ye Nv as a teacher.
