All Hail Cousin Brother

In the end, she must be like the empress dowager, praise her for being clean, clean, and good-natured.

It was also at this time that Yu Youyao finally understood what this palace sash represented.

This is the glory that her cousin has deliberately sought for her.

Qi Sining took the palace sash in his hand, and after looking at it carefully, he saw something unusual: "The jade bead tassel under the palace sash doesn't seem to be made of Lantian jade."

The craftsmen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have undergone a lot of tempering in their craftsmanship. This palace sash is also beautiful, and the craftsmanship is also integrated. If you don't look carefully, you can't really see the difference in the materials used.

At least before, no one saw it.

Yu Youyao and Song Wanhui quickly approached to take a look.

Song Huiwan gently twisted a yellow and white jade bead and carefully observed the texture: "This yellow and white jade bead is a precious product in Dushan jade. The texture is delicate and soft, and the luster on the bead is mottled and varied."

Qi Sining also said: "The green one is Xiuyan jasper. The texture is firm and warm, delicate and round, transparent with few flaws, and it is also a rare precious product."

Yu Youyao looked at the last white jade pearl, which was Hetian jade.

Gonghuan uses three colors of yellow, green and white, Lantian jade, Hetian jade, Xiuyan jade, Dushan jade, and the four precious jades are used together. The texture is also carefully selected, and the craftsmanship is natural.

Yesterday, Lan Tianyu dazzled everyone in the house, and no one really noticed the jade beads that Lantian Yusu flowed down.

Song Wanhui praised in surprise: "It's so beautiful!"

Yu Youyao glanced at her waist, and happened to be wearing a pale white to pink "hibiscus red". The hibiscus carved jade pendant is the most precious and precious rare item in Dushan jade.

Looking at Qi Sining again, he was wearing a dark green Xiuyan jade bracelet on his wrist, which was also the rarest precious color in Xiuyan jade.

The Great Zhou Dynasty especially respected the four precious jades.

In addition to Lantian jade, which is mostly used by the royal family, big families like to wear precious jade. The daughter of Jingui from big families, when they are born, they will look for good precious jade and create precious jade ornaments for their sisters. When the sisters are older, they will I gave my sister to carry it with me, nourishing life, nourishing nature and jade, but it is very good.

Therefore, this palace sash is not too surprising except that it is a reward from the empress dowager.

Qi Sining noticed her eyes and pouted: "Do we wear the same clothes as the Empress Dowager's reward? But put your eyes away, you really want to be beaten."

After rewarding the palace sash, Yu Youyao put away the palace sash and asked Chunxiao to put it back.

Yu Youyao changed the subject: "Some time ago, the peach blossom water in the cellar was ready. I made peach blossom face cream, mouth balm, and peach blossom dew. I don't know if you like it or not."

After she finished speaking, she ordered Xia Tao to get it.

Qi Sining became interested as soon as he heard it: "What's wrong with what you've made? The sheep cream you gave me a while ago is very good."

Song Wanhui also said: "The sheep cream is fine and moist, and it can still have white skin. I think I seem to be whiter these days."

Yu Youyao chuckled: "The weather is getting hotter and hotter recently, the sheep cream is thicker and feels oily after using it, and the peach blossom face cream is more refreshing. After washing my face, I first massaged my face with peach blossom dew, and mouth If you apply it on the eye area, and then apply the peach blossom face cream, it will not only improve your complexion, but also whiten your skin."

At this time, Chun Xiao brought something over.

In the small glass belly bottle, there is crystal clear peach blossom dew, which is pink in color, as beautiful as honey. The peach blossom face cream is placed in a slanted porcelain box. The texture of the mouth fat is thicker, and the red is rich and bright, like a mass of crystal red lard.

As soon as the thing is opened, there is a faint fragrance of peach blossoms, scattered all over the house.

Song Wanhui and Qi Sining's eyes lit up.

The ones they usually use on their faces are also expensive goods bought in shops, and they are also good to use, but they are a little worse than Yu Youyao's own hand-made ones.

What is the secret recipe of the palace, how can it be the same as the ordinary one?

Song Wanhui poured a little peach blossom dew on the back of her hand, the oily flower dew, rubbed it on the back of her hand, and spread it little by little.

She was amazed: "This is really a good thing. It is more refreshing and moisturizing than the rose water sold in the shop for five taels of gold, and the taste is also fragrant."

Qi Sining also took the mouth fat, turned his head and asked Yu Youyao: "Isn't mouth fat used on lips? Why use mouth fat on the eye area?"

Yu Youyao didn't speak, she used the tip of her little fingernail to lightly pick a ball of mouth fat, approached Qi Sining, and used the belly of her ring finger to make a few circles around her eyes to spread the mouth fat evenly.

When it was over, she asked, "How do you feel?"

Qi Sining blinked: "It seems to be much clearer, not as dry as before."

Yu Youyao explained: "This lipstick looks red and bright, but it doesn't have any color when applied, and the texture is more delicate, and the eyes and lips are more delicate. Applying this is more moisturizing. When going out, before applying the lipstick , apply a layer of peach butter first, the mouth fat will be more even and the color will be brighter.”

Hearing what she said, Song Wanhui shouted to give it a try.

Qi Sining was also eager to try.

Yu Youyao took them into the room, washed their faces again, and used peach blossom dew, peach blossom butter, and peach blossom face cream one by one, and the two were really satisfied.

The two took Yu Youyao to the pavilion, and asked Yu Youyao for advice on beauty and skin care secrets.

Yu Youyao didn't hide his secrets either, and a lot of things in his hand were sent out for a while.

In the afternoon, when Qi Sining and Song Wanhui left, they were full of large and small bags again.

Therefore, the Marquis of Changxing's mansion saved enough energy and made great efforts to organize the flower party, but it ended unexpectedly.

Miss Cao Qi ruined her reputation, Mrs. Changxing Hou was reprimanded by the empress dowager, and Mrs. Cao personally apologized to Shangyu Mansion. The majesty of Changxing Hou Mansion was lost.

Mrs. Cao rushed to the first day of the imperial examination and brought Miss Cao Qi to the Hui family.

This matter also came to an end.

After that, the most talked about in Beijing was that Miss Yu, although she was the eldest daughter of a widow, grew up in front of Mrs. Yu and was brought up very well by Mrs. Yu. Even the Empress Dowager praised her very well. Rewarded the palace silk made of Lantian jade.

Yu Youyao is also in the limelight in Beijing.

But after two days of discussion, they stopped.

After tossing for more than half a year, the imperial examination finally ushered in the last palace examination.

Yu Youyao, like the previous time, helped Madam Liu with her work, and unknowingly struggled for a whole day.

In the early morning of the 26th, a few Yu Shande from the Yu clan who participated in the palace exam came over.

Mrs. Yu said solemnly: "I won't say more, so I hope you can make a name for yourself, honor your ancestors, and not fall into the lintel of your ancestors."

Yu Shande responded with a few respects.

Afterwards, Yu Zongzheng talked about his previous palace exams and encouraged him.

Yu Zongshen only mentioned the rules of the palace exam.
