All Hail Cousin Brother

Chapter 89: Great pen

Mother Xu replied yes, and walked to Yu Youyao to look at the sample cloth with her.

The two got together and discussed a few words from time to time, and they picked it up without a cup of tea. They were all the best ingredients in Jinxiu Village.

Yang Shuwan frowned, the two masters and servants came and went, and they picked seven or eight items. Every season, the house will add some fashionable clothes to the sisters. Everyone is three or four. As the eldest daughter, Yu Youyao, The old lady is partial to her again, and it is reasonable to add one or two more clothes, but it is too many to choose.

Madam Xu also thought of this, and said: "My sister was ill, and she also took a note, and the clothes in the past were a little inappropriate. These days, the clothes on her body are all changed by the embroiderers in the house. It's not good to always wear the same clothes when I'm younger."

Yang Shuwan was in a trance. In just a month, Yu Youyao had lost weight, and she was no worse than Jiajia.

She hurriedly said: "But I was negligent. April is the festival of the Buddha, and the old lady wants to worship the Buddha. During this time, I helped to copy the Buddhist scriptures together. In the house, I also let Mama Liu help me. I feel wronged, and I have to pick a few more clothes."

It was her fault to let my sister wear clothes that were changed from the previous ones. It was her fault, and it was said that she treated the eldest daughter of her original wife harshly, which was much more serious than treating a prostitute.

Obviously it was his own omission, but he wanted to use "filial piety" to decorate peace, and climbed on Liu Momo, Yu Youyao lowered her eyes.

"Mother, don't say that. I used to have many clothes that I didn't wear, and it would be a pity not to wear them. I didn't have to let my mother worry about this little thing, so I made Xiu Niang smaller, but I'm a little taller now. , the weather is cold, when you have more clothes on your body, you are better, but now that you have taken off your thick clothes, the length of the clothes is not suitable."

After finishing speaking, I picked two more cloth samples, adding to the total of ten samples from the previous ones.

This remark not only saved face for her mother, but also explained the reason why she made more clothes. Even the shopkeeper Sun on the side could not help but praise the eldest lady in the mansion for being generous and decent.

No wonder it was favored by Mrs. Yu.

Yang Shuwan was uncomfortable and disgusting as if she had swallowed flies alive: "Let's choose another style, the tailors and embroidery girls in Jinxiu Village are very good, and the clothes they keep are not too heavy."

Yu Youyao nodded.

Shopkeeper Sun said attentively: "This year, the fashionable Ru skirt in Beijing, with a short Ru jacket on the top and a floral skirt on the bottom, it is both generous and decent. The outer jacket has many styles, such as pair-front, cross-breasted, and even-breasted, and the skirts also have tube tops. , waist-length, high-waist, pleated skirts, twelve pleated, eight-piece Hunan skirts, horse-faced skirts, each with its own characteristics, you can also change clothes to match on weekdays..."

Listening to Shopkeeper Sun's incessant introduction, Yu Youyao and Xu Mammy quickly settled on the style.

After that, Madam Xu instructed Dongmei to go to the box and pick out five pieces of high-quality material: "There is a shopkeeper Laosun, who will also make these pieces of material into ready-made clothes."

Shopkeeper Sun fixed his eyes and straightened his eyes immediately.

Tianshui Bi, Soft Smoke Luo, Su Jin, Yun Jin, Snow Satin, these are all extremely valuable tribute materials, how can you easily see them outside?

This handwriting is really big!

Shopkeeper Sun said again and again: "You can rest assured, Miss, the old woman will definitely invite the best tailors and embroiderers in the village, and she will not humiliate this great material."

Yu Youyao gave a small thank you with satisfaction, and Madam Xu took a bulging purse and stuffed it into Shopkeeper Sun's hand: "There is Shopkeeper Laosun."

Yu You made clothes by herself, but Yang Shuwan couldn't say much, but just looking at this good tribute material, her eyes were full of enthusiasm.

She has a good snow satin in her house. She originally planned to make two clothes for Jiajia, but it was expensive and outstanding.

But Yu Youyao's handwriting completely compared Jiajia, and she felt bored in her heart.

Seeing that Mother Xu had finished explaining her words, Yang Shuwan stood up and said, "I've chosen the one here, and I'll take Shopkeeper Sun to the fourth sister's house."

Yang Shuwan wanted to show her virtuousness and magnanimity, she and Yu Qingning were the first in everything, and Yu Jianjia was always the last.

But who said that in the end, someone will be sent?

At the end, when Yu Jianjia had a lot of them, no one urged them to pick them slowly, could they be more careful than them?

Yang Shuwan sent out the door, and Yu Youyao returned to the house and said to Chunxiao, "Go to my cousin's house."

Mr. Hushan is off today. Zhou Linghuai didn't go to the school, but he was free, so he ordered Chang'an: "Find out the frozen peach blossom stone in Shoushan Field that I brought from Youzhou."

Chang'an wondered when he heard it: "What do you want the young master to do with the peach blossom frozen stone?"

Zhou Linghuai ignored him and took a large lacquer box carved with red flowers and birds from the cabinet, and his expression suddenly became complicated.

His father liked lacquer carving when he was young, so he learned this craft. He heard from his father that he still relied on this craft to win his mother's favor, and he married his mother smoothly.

This box is the birthday present that my father made for him when he was ten years old.

For the lacquer on the top, I applied more than 100 layers, applied one layer, and then applied another layer after drying. I applied two layers a day, layer by layer, and then carved on the lacquer, which took half a year to complete.

My father was very proud of this craft. He was afraid that he would not be able to get a daughter-in-law. He even taught him to learn it, but he found it troublesome.

Thinking about the past, Zhou Linghuai's eyes fell on the unevenness in the upper left corner. There was originally a line of words on it, which read: "Give my son Huai Xi on his birthday, and wish my son good health every year."

Later, he also took the Kunwu knife with his own hands, and cut off the line layer by layer with one knife, and cut off more than a hundred layers!

Chang An turned around and walked out of the study. After a while, he returned to the study with an ebony box the size of a palm.

At this time, Zhou Linghuai's expression returned to normal, and he opened the large lacquer carving box in front of him. Inside was a set of large and small carving tools, including thallium, Kunwu knife, small drill, and bow.

He was a little devil in the world when he was young, but it was a headache when he was mixed up. Even his father couldn't control him, so he found a Taoist priest and asked him to learn some Taoist classics, so as to cultivate his self-cultivation.

As a result, he learned the Taoist scriptures by heart, but his temperament was the same as before. His father made another move. On his birthday, he gave him this set of carving tools to let him learn to carve, so as to sharpen his temperament.

Chang An couldn't help but ask, "Young master, do you want to engrave a seal?"

Zhou Linghuai let out a "hmm" and took out an adult's thumb-length seed material from the ebony box.

It is the Shoushantian Peach Blossom Frozen Stone that he has collected for many years.
