All Hail Cousin Brother

Mrs. Yu stared at Yang Shuwan sharply, and said sharply: "You are clumsy, you can't do a little thing well, why don't you get up quickly."

The harsh words made Yang Shuwan shiver as if someone had poured cold water on her, so she had to take a step back with her head down, not daring to say a word.

Only then did Grandma Liu step forward: "Is the old lady burned?"

Old Madam Yu shook her head: "It's not burning, help me back to my room and change into clothes."

Grandma Liu quickly responded, helped the old lady to walk into the inner room, Yao Shi followed behind, and Yang Shuwan also followed after seeing it, the stern eyes that called Old Madam Yu back stopped her feet.

Yang Shuwan was ashamed, her face was blue with anger.

In my heart, I resented that Yao Shi deliberately went to the eldest room to watch her without telling jokes, and deliberately caused her to spill tea, which offended the old lady, and was jealous of Yao's face in front of the old lady, even Yao's children were alone. It's not a good thing, just know how to please the old lady.

Yu Youyao and the younger ones were relieved to see that grandma was really fine.

Yu Shuangbai hadn't seen Yu Youyao for several days, and wanted to take Yu Youyao to the lotus pond to feed the fish, Yu Youyao rolled her eyes, and took Yu Shuangbai back to the Tiaoyu Courtyard, so Chunxiao took the fish food and climbed on the wooden fence Sprinkling fish food, Madam Xu asked the two women to stand by and watch so as not to fall into the water.

A large group of koi scrambled for fish food. Seeing how busy it was, Yu Shuang clapped her hands: "Grandma asked you to learn the rules with Madam Xu, and you really followed it? My mother can't get used to me." Playing all day long, keeping me together to learn the rules, but I suffered an innocent disaster because of you."

Yu Youyao was speechless: "What can I do if I don't learn? You don't know how good Nanny Xu is."

Yu Shuangbai looked at her with sympathy, looked around for a while, and whispered in Yu Youyao's ear: "I heard that the palace is a place that eats people without spit out bones, and those who come out of the palace are bad." Very much."

Yu Youyao stared at her: "Stop talking nonsense, Nanny Xu is fine."

Yu Shuangbai rolled her eyes, and didn't mention it again: "A few days ago, my mother asked Nanny Qian to teach me female redness. If you look at my fingers, you can still see the eye of a needle."

As he spoke, he handed his hands to Yu Youyao.

Yu Youyao took a closer look, and really saw two needle holes. Thinking of her own fingers, the needles had pricked many holes, and she gloated: "I haven't learned how to prick so many needle holes, who else will I prick?"

Yu Shuangbai's eyes widened: "It's as if you've learned it." It's so difficult for female red, and it's only ten or so days, how can you learn it.

Yu Youyao proudly said, "No, I'll take you to have a look, lest you think I'm bragging."

Yu Shuangbai was in a daze, and followed Yu Youyao to the embroidery pavilion, watching Yu Youyao took the half-embroidered "卍" pattern in the embroidery basket and wiped her forehead, and threaded the needle in front of Yu Shuang's pale face, Yu Shuang was shocked Bai stared straight at his eyes, clutching his chest with an expression like "We promised to eat, drink and have fun together, but you are secretly working hard behind my back".

Seeing Yu Shuangbai's frowning expression after being hit, Yu Youyao felt sorry, and asked Chunxiao to take two boxes of apricot blossom soap that she made herself: "I'm learning how to make perfume with Madam Xu, I made this myself Apricot flower soap, when cleansing the face in the morning, apply evenly on the face, wash off after a while, not only the complexion is better, but also the face is not dry, Xu Mama said that the nobles in the palace use apricot flower soap to clean the face, You and your aunt each have a box of these two boxes, and you can ask me for them when you have used them up."

"You know how to make fragrance?!" Yu Shuangbai was startled at first by Yu Youyao's ability to make fragrance, then happily held the box and opened it on the spot. The light red flower paste was delicate and moist, exuding Fresh fragrance, not too strong, not too weak, very pleasant smell.

Yu Shuangbai's eyes lit up: "You are really amazing. Madam Xu has only been in the mansion for how long. You have even learned how to make female reds and perfume."

Seeing the moist stillness between Yu Youyao's brows,

The big sister is different from the past.

Yu Youyao smiled.

Yu Shuangbai sighed with emotion, and then changed the topic: "By the way, grandma has always been generous, so why do you suddenly want to set rules for your mother?"

Yu Youyao didn't mention the matter of her being beaten, but only said about the doctor Hu asking for peace of mind: "Grandmother feels that mother doesn't know the severity, so she can't be angry."

Yu Shuang bawled: "Yes! You have such a demon stepmother, how pitiful you are."

Yu Youyao made a gesture to hit her: "Even the elders dare to fight against you, you have grown courage, be careful to let the second aunt know, and I will teach you a lesson."

Yu Shuang repeatedly begged for mercy.

Yu Youyao felt a little uneasy thinking that the results of the scientific examination had not yet been released: "Did my second uncle say when the results of the scientific examination will be released? In previous years, the results were released ten days after the scientific examination."

It stands to reason that the results of the scientific examination should be released on February 19th, but it is already 21 today and the results have not been released yet?

These days, even the students taking part in the scientific examination are not very social, and wait all day for the news of the results.

Yu Shuangbai didn't answer, but looked at her curiously and asked, "Since when did you start caring about such things?"

Yu Youyao smiled: "I just find it strange, so I asked casually."

The second uncle must first inform the second aunt about the movement in the court, lest the family house be involved in the court affairs and cause disasters, and Yu Shuangbai will have to be mentioned by the second aunt.

Yu Shuang curled her lips: "Father said that in this scientific examination, several students had different answers to the questions, and several adults who marked the papers were in contention, and the rankings were also in dispute, so it will be later. There are old rules to consult, it's not a big deal, just let mother take care of the inner house."

Yu Youyao nodded thoughtfully and didn't ask any more questions.

but!

About recently, I often heard Madam Xu talk about what she had seen and heard in the palace, and I learned a little about the people in various prefectures in Beijing. Coupled with the matter of "appointed disciples", she became very keen on some things. .

She can be sure that the imperial court's delay in releasing the list must have something to do with the "appointed disciple".

The so-called [answer dispute] and [ranking dispute] may also be partisan disputes within the imperial court.

The second uncle and the Weininghou Mansion belong to different factions. The two factions are fighting openly and secretly for their own interests. After learning about the "promised disciple", it is impossible for the faction he belongs to to let him do anything.

The best way is to stay calm during the grading process, and cut off the disciples agreed by the Weining Hou Mansion one by one as much as possible. Not at an impasse.

It is impossible for anyone to regress when party interests are involved, and it is estimated that it will take some time before the list is released.
