All Hail Cousin Brother

"Jing-zhi--" The first cursive script that her cousin gave her was a small seal script engraved on the seal, and she did not recognize it, so she took it for granted as "Jingzhi".

Later, when my cousin had nothing to do, he taught her the characters in seal script, and she found out that the characters "zhi" and "zhi" in small seal script were seven or eight similar, so she asked her cousin.

Only then did I know that I made a big oolong.

In less than a moment, the official script inscription and seal were engraved.

Yu Youyao couldn't wait to ask, "Are you okay?"

Zhou Linghuai shook his head: "The inscription that has just been engraved needs to be colored and painted, and the seal has to be sanded to complete it."

Generally speaking, the inscription should be engraved before it is wound, but he wanted to surprise Yu Youyao, so he left it to the last step without determining the name of the piano.

Changan has already brought paint and cinnabar.

Lacquer writing and sanding are both meticulous and boring tasks. The coloring and lacquering should be uniform, and there are many strokes such as horizontal, vertical, dot, swipe, and fold, and the techniques are different.

Even the carved official script should not be sloppy.

Therefore, it is a simple process, and it took an hour to complete it completely. The lacquer and sanding, the color is full and thick, simple and elegant, and it is not easy to fade.

In this way, Shao Yuqin is finally completed.

Chang'an brought one, a black-bottomed piano case, and Yu Youyao couldn't move his eyes with just one glance.

Lacquer carving, cloisonné, ivory, and jade carving are also known as the Four Famous Artists, and they are also known as the Eight Great Masters of Beijing. Their skills are called treasures. In the previous dynasties, they were once prosperous, and it was also in the Great Zhou Dynasty that their skills declined. .

But the best lacquer carvings are still sought after.

Yu Youyao likes lacquer carving. Earlier, her grandmother gave her a lacquer carving makeup box, which is already Meilun Meihuan.

My cousin is also good at lacquer carving and often makes small things for her.

Small pieces of lacquer carving are not easy to make, ranging from one or two months to three or five months.

On her dressing table, there are makeup boxes, fat boxes, eyebrow dye boxes, etc. Most of them are given by cousins, and there are many patterns, including red, black, color, and yellow...

but!

Still no, this black-colored violin case is even more ingenious. Such a large-scale lacquer carving process can be completed in one or two years in short and three or five years in long.

On the violin box, there are engraved qin se in the imperial pattern, and the green and green tangled branches and green leaves are entrenched on the long box with black bottom, wrapping the entire long box.

Between the branches and leaves, there are clusters of yellow-green trumpet flowers, which are elegant and bright, and are beautiful and fragrant.

On the box surface, on the red long table, is a twenty-five-stringed serpent, and a zither is placed on the qin.

No need for inlaying gold and jade, the bright tangled texture of the branches is already beautiful and life-like and thrilling.

Since she came up with the idea and asked her cousin to carve a seal of Qin and Se in Yu, her cousin seems to be very fond of Qin and Se patterns, and many of the things she usually send her have such textures.

Cousin is a good carver, even with similar textures, he can always carve different patterns.

For a moment, Yu Youyao had the illusion that he was buying a casket for a pearl.

No no no, the Shaoyu qin and the qin box are famous sword boxes, which complement each other.

As a result, Yu Youyao has one kind of gift, one birthday, and two wonderful gifts.

The red lining was filled with silk in the box, which would not hurt the qin. Zhou Linghuai carefully put the Shaoyu qin into the box and closed the lid.

He looked up at Yu Youyao.

The little girl stared at the box in his hand, smiling brightly, her brows and eyes curved, and her bright lips.

Zhou Linghuai's eyebrows were as elegant as melted ink, as if he had fainted. He stood up abruptly from his wheelchair. The servants in the Qingyuan Courtyard acted as if they hadn't seen them before.

Yu Youyao narrowed her eyes, covered her mouth subconsciously, her eyes were moist, and looked at her cousin blankly.

It wasn't the first time she saw her cousin stand up.

But it was the first time I saw my cousin, without any help, just like an ordinary normal person, stood up easily.

After losing the cane, the cousin stretched his back and straightened his back. Only then did Yu Youyao realize that the cousin was taller than she thought.

He stood in front of her lightly, his slender body already covering her petiteness.

"Cousin you..." The legs are completely healed!

Zhou Linghuai was holding the boxed Shaoyu and handed it to Yu Youyao: "I am overjoyed to hear that the sun is coming down, there are beautiful scenery everywhere, every year is a good day," he chuckled: "Yaoyao, happy birthday!"

Yu Youyao held the piano case, and the wetness in her eyes turned into a little starlight, bursting out with a strong brilliance.

She looked at her cousin: "I only hope that tomorrow, like today, people will always be there every year."

Three years ago, I don't know who I heard said that if you make a wish on the birthday, the wish will come true, so she made this wish.

I hope that on every birthday in the future, my cousin will always be by my side.

At that time, she was still ignorant and did not know that some wishes could not be made easily.

On her birthday three years later, the wish in her heart is still this.

No, maybe even more greedy than this.

Yu Youyao thought about the wishing brocade that she threw onto the Wishing Bodhi on the day of the Buddha's Day, with the words on it: "I wish that your husband will live a thousand years, the second wish that your concubine will always be healthy, and the third wish that you will be like Yan on Liang, and see each other every year! "

Not only hope that every birthday, cousin can always be by his side.

Hope to see you every year.

Zhou Linghuai was stunned, obviously thinking of three years ago.

Yu Youyao put the qin box on the table and took a step forward. His cousin was close at hand. People who usually wear dark clothes suddenly changed into a moon-white cloud brocade, which was as bright as the moonlight on the lake.

Standing on a stand, it is even more slender and graceful. It is as cut as rubbing, as polished as polished, polished, with the spirit of bones, the virtue of jade, the strength of stone, and the body of one person.

Yu Youyao didn't know what kind of struggle she went through in her heart, so she mustered up her courage, and with trembling hands, wrapped her arms around her waist, hesitated for a while, put her little face on the chest in front of her, and heard it clearly, "Dong Dong" thump" heartbeat.

She wasn't sure whether such a fierce heartbeat belonged to her or her cousin.

The faint scent of ink on the cousin's body has been soaked out over the years, revealing a trace of ancient servant rhyme: "Cousin, can you say it?"

Zhou Linghuai lowered her head. The little girl was petite and slender, only reaching his chest. As soon as he lowered his head, his chin pressed against her head, and his chin rubbed against her hair unconsciously.

He thought of three years ago, when the little girl took his hand, looked at him with bright and clear eyes, and said to him:

——I only hope that tomorrow, like today, people will always be there every year!

-Cousin, do you think it's okay?

At that time, facing the little girl's eyes full of joy, excitement, and anticipation, how did he answer?

Zhou Linghuai hugged the little girl with her petite figure in his arms, bowed his head again, and kissed her softly on the top of her hair: "Okay!"

Three years later, his answer is still this.
