The boy ran to the front of the hall and was stunned for a moment when he didn't see his familiar aunt. Youuran, on the other hand, remembered what Mrs. Lin had said. After a moment of thought, she smiled and said, "You're second uncle's cousin Su Xuan, right?"

Su Xuan nodded, "Yes, how do you know my name?" Before Youuran could reply, she quickly said, "I know, you must be Cousin Youuran whom my mother mentioned. How do you do, Cousin Youuran?"

After saying that, he even properly bowed.

Youuran hurriedly returned the greeting, and just then, Mrs. Lin came back from the backyard. "Xuan'er is here, is your uncle's family and your parents also here?"

Su Xuan replied, "Everyone's here. The carriage hurt my butt. When I reached the village entrance, I got off and ran over myself."

When Mrs. Lin heard this, she hurriedly rushed outside with Youuran. "Come, let's go outside quickly and welcome them."

Youuran's uncle and his family had just arrived at the gate.

Mrs. Lin led Youuran and walked a few steps forward, pointing at the crowd as they greeted each other one by one.

Although the countryside didn't seem like a place to give any greeting gifts, Youuran had been out wandering for many years. Now that she had finally returned home, her two aunts both gave her a purse. After meeting each other, Mrs. Lin led everyone into the house.

The two uncles were not very talkative people, but from their moist eyes, it could be seen that they loved Youuran, their niece.

His two aunts were still similar to what the original owner remembered, the eldest aunt was still as gentle as ever, while the second aunt was still as straightforward.

This time they had brought with them some dried meat, dried fruit, half a bag of millet, and two large carp.

Mrs. Lin said angrily, "Sister-in-law and sister-in-law, you always bring so many things with you every time you come. You really make me feel embarrassed." The two aunties smiled and modestly gave way to him. Second Aunt teased him even more, "Since elder sister thinks that there are too many things, we can bring them back when we leave. At that time, elder sister might want to add some more things." This caused everyone to laugh.

Second Cousin and Su Xuan, the two kids, brought the items to the kitchen. Su Xuan found a wooden basin and filled it with water before placing the fish inside it … …

Soon, everyone sat down in the living room. The first thing they saw was the octagonal box on the square table. After all, exquisite items like this were relatively rare here.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lin's heart was also bright. She hurriedly called out to her brothers and sisters to eat, personally bringing out a piece of dessert for each of the juniors.

Youuran, on the other hand, was busy serving tea and pouring water. It was with great difficulty that she managed to pour tea for everyone. Only then did she inwardly heave a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Second Uncle had the help of Cousin Xiuyun, otherwise, so many people would have to busy themselves with tea.

Thinking up to here, Youuran smiled gratefully at Cousin Xiuyun, then pulled Xiuyun's hand to make her sit down. "Cousin Liu, come and rest for a bit. I've caused Cousin Li quite a bit of trouble."

Xiuyun had a different personality from her mother. She was very quiet and gentle. She smiled. "It's alright, Cousin. I'm not tired." She still had some impression of this cousin who was one year older than her. In his memory, his cousin often brought him to play when he was young. Anything good to eat or fun to eat would all be kept close to him. Even after so many years, they still felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

At this time, second aunt exclaimed, "Aiya, Youuran ah, this handkerchief was embroidered by you ah? "This work is really brilliant. I'm afraid that even the best embroidery lady in our town can't match up to this kind of craftsmanship, right?"

Second Aunt then handed the embroidery to her sister-in-law, "Look at this, sister-in-law. Is what I said true?"

His aunt took the embroidery and looked at it. On the bottom of the light green silk screen, there were two or three lotus leaves, a full blooming lotus flower and a half-blooming lotus flower. Although they were not completed yet, their beautiful and bright tone could already be seen. He also nodded his head, "There's no way to say how excellent he is. He's indeed outstanding."

Following that, the two uncles and two cousins also looked around and praised Youuran's handiwork. Youuran didn't feel embarrassed either, but smiled generously instead. When the crowd saw her elegant and graceful appearance, they were a bit envious of her.

Seeing her elders chatting, Youuran brought Cousin Xiuyun to her room to play.

Xiuyun saw her cousin's beauty and admired her from the bottom of her heart. Seeing her invite, he hurriedly followed her.

In the west room, Youuran invited her cousin to sit on the kang. He brought out some snacks and seeds for his cousin to eat and then busied himself with pouring water into a cup. After some work, she finally sat down. Seeing that Xiuyun was still a little reserved, she casually picked a topic: "Oh right, why is First Cousin not here today? I didn't see my two little nieces either. "

Xiuyun said, "First Cousin went to visit her parents in the neighboring county with Guo'er and Tor a few days ago. She also went to visit Big Cousin. Perhaps she won't be able to come back for a while."

"If that's the case, then I'll see you next time. What pastimes does my cousin have at home? "

"It's nothing. It's just the needlework of a female worker. The work that Sister Youuran is embroidering is really good." "I used to think that my beauty was pretty good, but after seeing my sister's craftsmanship today, I realized how ignorant I was before."

Youuran smiled, "There is always someone stronger than you. There is always someone stronger than you." "My skills can still scare people in this countryside. My previous home was much better than mine."

Hearing this, Xiuyun was a little surprised. "Elder sister's work is already so good, I really don't know what that better female red looks like."

Youuran turned around and took a purse from the box on the table and handed it to her cousin. "This is a purse that was given to me by a lady in the house. Even Esteemed Princess praised her craftsmanship. Take a look at it."

Xiuyun took over the bag and saw that it was embroidered with a cat butterfly. The needle was thin like a hair, with a flowery color, and the kitten seemed to have come alive. After she had carefully observed it for a while, she could not help but exclaim, "I had heard before that outstanding female workers could vividly embroider flowers, birds, insects and fish. I just thought it was an exaggeration. I never thought that I would actually see it today. This sort of purse must be very valuable. Cousin, quickly put it away. " Saying so, she quickly pushed the bag towards Youuran.

It could be seen that Xiuyun liked the purse a lot, but she was so polite to her that Youuran couldn't help but have a good impression of her. She put the bag into Xiuyun's hands, "Although this trade is rare, I still have a few of these. Besides, this was originally meant to be given to you, but in reality, the things inside are the gifts I wanted to give you. "No wonder there was a 'buy a clam and pay a pearl' story.

Xiuyun asked in surprise, "Are you really giving this to me?"

Youuran nodded, "Of course it's true. How could I lie to you? "Not just you, I've also prepared it for my first cousin and her two nephews. I'll have to trouble you to bring it back for me later."

Xiuyun nodded her head hurriedly. "No problem. Leave that to me."

"Alright, quickly open it and take a look. Do you like the things inside?"
