Chapter 596: Pitting Brothers Against Each Other

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Unexpectedly, not only was Yu Shuangbai a bad judge of character, but even Yu Lianyu, who had followed behind, did not understand the little girl’s smug mood. Instead, she praised her.

It was too long to explain.

“This is a lacquer carving?” Yu Shuang’s eyes widened again. She only felt that this long box was beautiful and vivid. “Oh my god, I’ve never seen such a big piece of carving. Big Sister, quickly show it to me…”

As she spoke, she reached out to take it.

Yu Youyao dodged to the side. “This is a birthday gift from Cousin. You can only look at it and not touch it, in case you accidentally break it.”

Seeing her energetic expression and the smugness on her face, Yu Shuangbai rolled her eyes. “I heard that lacquer carvings and embellishments have been around for a thousand years. They don’t decay, fade, or lose color. How can they be broken just by touching them?”

Yu Youyao said righteously, “What if it happens? It took Cousin more than three years to finish carving such a big piece. I have to be careful.”

Every word and sentence was filled with pride, making Yu Shuangbai speechless.

However, she had also heard that large-scale lacquer carvings were very expensive. They were almost extinct among the commoners. The best were the furnishings of the nobles of the royal family.

Such a long box could already be considered a valuable item. He had to be careful.

It would be a pity if it was broken.

Yu Youyao entered the corridor and carefully placed the box on the table. She said, “Look!”

After being envious of the zither box, when the box was opened, she would probably be envious of the zither again.

Not only Yu Shuangbai and the others, but even the usually steady Yu Shanyan and Yu Jianjia, who did not like to gather together, subconsciously surrounded the table. Even their eyes widened.

Yu Shanyan was amazed. “I heard that carving on a smooth, soft, and easily deformed layer is a test of one’s skills. There’s always the saying that one has no regrets, especially when it comes to large-scale carving. It’s very difficult to carve properly without decades of cultivation. It’s much harder than jade carving, ivory carving, and so on. Therefore, lacquer carving was once at its peak in the previous dynasty. After the war, its skills were almost lost. Good lacquer carving is very rare on the market. Cousin Zhou is too amazing…”

Yu Shanxin also sighed. “Three years! It’s not three days, three months, or 300 days, but three years. That’s more than 3,000 days. Cousin Zhou is really willing to spend time on Eldest Sister.”

The colorful box in front of her was so dazzling that it almost hurt Yu Jianjia’s eyes.

Three years ago, on Yu Youyao’s birthday, Zhou Linghuai had given her a Longevity peach blossom stone seal that he had personally carved.

What had he given her two years ago?

Oh right, it was the Dragon Resting Stones that Zhou Linghuai had obtained from Mount Wutai.

More than ten Dragon Resting Stones had been transformed into natural landscape stones by Zhou Linghuai. When one or two of them were placed in the house, not only were they beautiful, but the entire house was also cool.

A year ago, he had given her a huge painting of the Bodhisattva.

It was said that this huge painting had taken two years to complete. As soon as it was taken out, it stunned everyone in the Yu Residence. Second Uncle praised it endlessly, saying that this painting was divine in all aspects. It was a rare masterpiece in the world.

This year, he had taken another three years to complete the embroidery box.

They were both cousins, but Zhou Linghuai treated Yu Youyao differently.

Yu Shuangbai’s face almost hit the zither box. She glanced at Yu Youyao enviously and glared at Yu Shanxin and Yu Shanyan resentfully.

Yu Shanxin was frightened by her glare and asked warily, “Second Sister, why are you looking at me?”

Yu Shanyan quietly took a step back, and his entire body was blocked by Yu Shanxin’s tall and strong body.

Indeed!

Yu Shuangbai looked indignant. “We’re all brothers. Why is there such a big difference?”

Yu Shanyan scratched his head and looked honest. “Uh, you can’t say that.

Although we’re both brothers, there’s a difference between cousins and biological brothers, right?”

Her cousin was better than her biological brother. How was that reasonable?! Yu Shuangbai stomped her foot. “You’re still angry with me!”

Yu Shanxin really did not understand why she was angry. He looked inexplicably puzzled. “Are you joking? How can I be angry with you?” That was not all. In the end, he added, “Besides, it’s not like Cousin Zhou has been treating Eldest Sister well for a day or two. Even Third Sister isn’t angry. Why are you angry?

The first and second branches had already split up. No matter how capable Cousin Zhou was, he was still from the first branch. Wasn’t it only right for him to spend so much effort to treat his eldest sister well?

Shouldn’t the person who should be angry the most be her third sister, who was also the daughter of the first wife?

Cousin Zhou had never put in much effort to please his third sister!

Yu Jianjia was implicated for no reason. It was simply heart-wrenching. Even her smiling expression was a little forced, so she could only lower her head.

Yu Shuangbai’s eyes widened as she glared at him. “Cousin Zhou treats Eldest Sister well because they’re close. Am I angry about this? You, you’re asking for a beating…

Yu Shanxin was enlightened. “So it’s you who’s angry. I don’t treat you as well as Cousin Zhou treats Eldest Sister. It’s really unreasonable for you to be angry. Not everyone in this world is as capable as Cousin Zhou. There’s nothing you can do if you’re angry with me…”

“You even said that you weren’t angry with me. You’re asking for a beating…” Yu Shuangbai was furious. She picked up her dress and chased after Yu Shanxin.

She was already angry. So what if he coaxed her a little?

Not only did he not coax her, but he also deliberately added fuel to the fire. He wasn’t really angry to begin with, but after hearing her words, he was furious.

Compared to Cousin Zhou and Eldest Sister, she had two brothers. One was studying all day and couldn’t be distracted, while the other was busy with his practice every day and went out. They really ignored their biological sister too much.

This was probably the case between siblings of wealthy families. In families with stricter upbringing, when a girl was twelve or thirteen years old, even her father, brother, and younger brother had to avoid her.

However, with Cousin Zhou in the Yu Residence, they were all a big family. How could there not be a comparison?

She was just saying it. She wouldn’t really be angry over such a thing!

Yu Shanxin was chased until he jumped up and down like a monkey. He had learned martial arts from a martial arts master for three years, so it was not difficult for him to fly over roofs and walk on walls. This caused Yu Youyao and the others to laugh repeatedly.

“Stop right there. Don’t run…”

“Only a fool would stand still and let you hit him…

“If you don’t stop, I’ll tell Father that you bullied me…”

“We’re all brothers. Why are you chasing after me alone instead of Big Brother?”

Without waiting for Yu Shuangbai to answer, Yu Shanyan quickly said, “Because you deserve a beating. Look, I’ve never made Second Sister angry.”

There was no one else who would pit brothers against each other.

Indeed!

As soon as Yu Shuangbai heard this, she shouted, “That’s right. It’s precisely because you deserve a beating. Why don’t you reflect on yourself? We’re all brothers.. Why don’t I chase after Big Brother instead of you?”
