Yu jiao li

Iu-kiao-li: or, the Two Fair Cousins, titled in Chinese as Yu Jiao Li (simplified Chinese: 玉娇梨; traditional Chinese: 玉嬌梨; pinyin: yù jiāo lí; Wade–Giles: Yü chiao li), is a caizi jiaren novel.

Yu Jiao Li was "one of the best-known caizi-jiaren novels" according to Song Geng (Chinese: 宋耕; pinyin: Sòng Gēng), a Chinese language and culture scholar. Chloë Starr, assistant professor of Asian Christianity and theology at Yale University, wrote that among the best known were Yu jiao li, Ping Shan Leng Yan, and Haoqiu zhuan. The English version published by Hunt and Clarke of York Street, London in 1827 is an adaptation by Jean-Pierre Abel-Rémusat's French version.

Two characters, Zhang Guiru (T: 張軌如, S: 张轨如, P: Zhāng Guǐrú, W: Chang Kuei-ju) and Su Youde (T: 蘇有德, S: 苏有德, P: Sū Yǒudé, W: Su Yu-te), plagiarize poems written by other people and pretend to be poets. Pseudo-caizi are foils to the real caizi in caizi jiaren stories.
