"That's good." Yuan Xiu didn't look at Yuan Qing again, "Today is the day when he and I serve tea to our father, how can he ruin it? You two, drag him to the side and kneel down .”
Yuanxiu pointed to the position on the farthest side of the hall, which is rather tricky and rarely used by people.Leaving aside the filth on the ground, Yuan Qing's heart is hard to calm down at this moment.How could his sister be so easy to talk, she didn't make any moves at the moment, I'm afraid she will make a big move later!
Thinking of this, his heart was raised high, and his whole body was tense like an arrow on the string.It's a pity that no one came to take care of the ready bow and arrow.
The maid took out two futons and put them on the ground, and then Jiuqing and Yuanxiu knelt down in front of Master Yuan, and slowly buttoned them, and then another maid held a mahogany tray with two porcelain cups on it, It looks elegant and beautiful.Just as the two wanted to reach out to grab it, they were stopped by Master Yuan unexpectedly.
"Wait." Master Yuan stood up, clapped his palms, and Ziyuan came out from the back room, holding the same tray in his hand, except that there were two exquisitely carved ones on it. It is a high-quality wooden box, and I don't know what kind of treasure is inside.
"This is?" Jiuqing had a feeling that what was on his head must be some unusual objects.
Master Yuan touched the box on the table with a solemn expression, "This is a gift I want to give you two. Our Yuan family has a rule. A man will give a rough stone for a crown, and a woman will give a piece of beautiful jade when she gets married. As for what you want to use this thing in the future, it’s all up to you. Just remember, you need to carry it close to your body, this is a meaningful thing.”
Both of them nodded solemnly, and then Master Yuan smiled.
"Right, shouldn't we serve tea now? I've been waiting for this day for many years. Now I finally got my wish. Not only did Xiu'er have a home, but our Yuan family got such a good Erlang. Don't you think so?" , Jiuqing?" Master Yuan patted Jiuqing's shoulder, and the latter waved his hands in embarrassment.
"It's Mr. Yuan, you are being polite." After Jiuqing finished speaking, she still didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
Master Yuan said dissatisfiedly, "My family's embroidery has already been betrothed to you. I have paid homage to the hall and house, and you still call me Master Yuan? Jiuqing, this is your fault."
"It's my fault, I should apologize to dad." He took a cup of tea from the tray and handed it to Master Yuan with a smile.The latter also accepted it with a smile on his face. It seemed that this new title made him very satisfied, and he stroked his beard and patted his thigh.
"Okay, okay, good call!" Master Yuan took a sip, and put one of the wooden boxes in Jiuqing's hands contentedly, "Open it and see if you like it."
The tentacles of the box are slightly cool, and you can only see the detailed dark lines when you look closer.Just hold it in your hand, you can smell a faint woody aroma, which shows that this wood is really the best of the best.Coupled with this carver, it is not difficult to sell a hundred taels of silver.
Jiuqing finished estimating the wooden box at a glance, and he couldn't help being surprised at Yuan Mansion's strong financial resources and magnanimity. Other than that, he was excited.A box in full bloom is so valuable, what about the contents?It should be priceless, right?
Ah, some natures cannot be changed, and Jiuqing is a little ready to move.
So he couldn't wait to open the box, just like an unclosed box.He couldn't close his mouth either.
"This, this is?" Jiuqing exclaimed in a low voice.
In the box he held in his hand, there was a black, thick and square... stone placed upright.
Yes, it is stone.Although it is quite beautiful, it cannot conceal the fact that it is a stone.So what is contained in such a box is actually a stone?Jiuqing felt that he was a bit unacceptable.
"It turned out to be this? Dad, didn't you prepare this black stone for Yuan Qing and Guanli?" Yuan Xiu couldn't help asking the moment he saw the stone.
"Well, that's what I planned." Master Yuan rubbed his head with a look of regret, "It's a pity, that kid is not worthy of this stone at all, and he ruined this stone."
"What is the origin of this stone?" Could it be a flying stone from the sky?Or is there any special effect?
Jiuqing stopped talking, looking at Master Yuan as if waiting for him to speak.
"It is the stone that Xiu'er's mother picked up under the seat of Guanyin when she was pregnant with Qing'er and went to Guanyin Mountain to pray for blessings. Don't look at this black stone as inconspicuous, but it is blessed by Guanyin. People worship and pray for blessings. What's more rare is that Qing'er's mother prepared this for the child before she passed away. She said that she only looked at the owner of this stone, and she was as tenacious as a rock. A good son with kind thoughts and a heart of compassion." When he said this, Master Yuan's voice seemed to have weakened, almost trembling.He sighed and shook his head, "Unfortunately, Qing'er is not worthy of it. You are also a member of the Yuan family now, and I think you are more worthy of you than my unfilial son."
"This, this is absolutely impossible!" Jiuqing hurriedly stuffed the stone and the box in his hand into Master Yuan's hand, looking flattered.
In fact, he is a layman.The so-called laity means that they only recognize the value of this thing that everyone can see.If this stone is a rare species in the world, it may have some collection value.But even if the stones on Guanyin Mountain are really blessed by Guanyin, so what if all the people worship them?Besides this small Qingyun County, or Daming Mansion, who else would recognize its value?Besides, this is something from the Yuan and Qing Dynasties, and the long-dead mother designated it for the unborn little bully.No matter how bad he is, no matter how he likes it, he won't take other people's relics.
So, he really couldn't accept it.
"You don't want it, you just don't take my father seriously." Master Yuan glared at Jiuqing angrily.Several people looked at each other, only to confirm that the person who laughed was Yuan Qing who had knelt there for a long time.
"You kneel and kneel, what are you laughing at?" Master Yuan asked, the remaining anger made him a little dissatisfied.
"I must have thought that this is just a rock. Give it away, why do you have to push it?" Yuan Xiu watched Yuan Qing grow up all the way, can he not be sure about his little thoughts?After listening to her, Yuan Qing over there immediately straightened his back, feeling the pressure doubled.
Master Yuan was so angry that he didn't know what expression to put on, but seeing that it was a special day today, he still squeezed out a smile, "Look at this, Jiuqing, can you accept it? How can such a thing be given to such a bastard?" Something? What a waste!"
In this situation, there is indeed no choice. The roads are blocked by Yuan Qing, so Jiuqing has no choice but to take a step back.
He kowtowed in the sight of everyone, that kind of big obeisance.The forehead is dotted with folded backs of hands, very pious.He was not facing Master Yuan, but the stone in the box.
"Since father said so, I really have to take it. But you also said just now that the rules of the Yuan family are that males are not given by the elders until they reach adulthood. You also said that I am also a member of the Yuan family. Then , I should abide by the Yuan family's rules, and since that's the case, I'm only eighteen this year, so why don't you delay giving me this stone." His eyes were sincere, as if what he said just now was indeed revealing his true feelings.He deceived everyone, Master Yuan was persuaded, and finally closed the wooden box.
"Okay, then it's up to you."
When it was Yuanxiu's turn to serve tea, Master Yuan didn't take the box at the first time, but stretched out his hand, tentatively as if wanting to hold Yuanxiu.
Yuan Xiu shrank subconsciously, and the corners of Master Yuan who had been staring at her all the time drooped, a little frustrated.He originally wanted to take advantage of the rare opportunity of Yuanxiu's big wedding to let her take a crucial step.But now it seems that it is still wandering in place.
He is so aggressive...
Master Yuan sighed halfway, and suddenly swallowed it back.
In front of him was a white and delicate hand.Slightly arched, half hanging down the sleeves, it looks as shy and timid as its owner.
"Father, you have worked hard all these years."
Master Yuan's mind was shocked, and he suddenly looked up at Yuanxiu.Has his well-behaved daughter come back?His hands couldn't help shaking.
Those slender hands were trembling at first, but they soon stabilized.He even held Master Yuan's hand even harder, as if affirming something.
"Xiu'er...Xiu'er, you..." Master Yuan choked up, he hadn't touched such real skin for a long time.His daughter, his daughter only existed in his vision, but he could never touch it, like a phantom that would shatter when touched, always giving him an unreal illusion.Now, he has met!
"That's great! That's great!" Master Yuan said incoherently, then held Jiuqing's hand again, and folded their hands together vigorously, completely ignoring Yuan Xiu's struggle.
Yuanxiu pointed to the position on the farthest side of the hall, which is rather tricky and rarely used by people.Leaving aside the filth on the ground, Yuan Qing's heart is hard to calm down at this moment.How could his sister be so easy to talk, she didn't make any moves at the moment, I'm afraid she will make a big move later!
