And this subtle change in his face was captured by Fu Heng. Since entering this orchid garden, Fu Heng seems to be bored and listless on the surface, but in fact, others look at flowers, but he looks at people, especially Li Qi's high attention to Rong Yunhe, which makes him feel indescribable.
Seeing that everyone was stunned at this time, he figured out Rong Yunhe's intentions, and said helpfully: "This flower, Miss Rong, you don't want it, Mr. Yu can't support it, I don't think it's worth even ten cents." Bet with Miss Rong for forty taels of silver with a worthless orchid, Li Gongzi, aren't you afraid to say that others say that you are oppressive and forcible to take it? ”
Saying that he can't grow is no less than a slap in the face to Yu Qingming, which made his old face red. This orchid, like his baby, was picked back from the Yuhang Mountains. He planted it for more than a month, and it became like this, he really didn't plant it alive, Fu Heng's words, the slap was real, and he had nowhere to hide.
However, his obsession with orchids soon made him feel bad. Rong Yunhe's theory, although he subconsciously didn't want to admit it, he still had some recognition of this theory in his heart. It can be seen that this girl Rong has a deep study of orchids. With his family background, if he wins, wouldn't it be good to ask for forty taels of silver? Why do you want this dead orchid? Could it be that this orchid is a green cloud?
Thinking of this, Yu Qingming couldn't care about his face, and looked at the orchid carefully for a while. Because this orchid was wilted from the beginning, and there were few leaves, he never saw anything special about it, and the more he raised it, the worse it became. He threw it in a corner and left it to fend for itself.
At this time, after being reminded by Rong Yunhe, he hurriedly looked carefully. After looking at it for a long time, the two small, yellowish and weak leaves still didn't make him see anything. He raised his head and shook his head at Li Qi.
Li Qi also had an idea with Yu Qingming in his heart, knowing that this orchid must be different. However, when Fu Heng said this, he immediately laughed and said: "The gambling method proposed by Miss Rong is unfair. I think it's good, if Miss Rong loses. As long as I apologize to Mr. Yu and express my admiration for Mr. Yu's knowledge; And if Miss Rong wins, the orchid will be given to Miss Yung. What do you think? ”
Fu Heng nodded and said, "It's pretty much the same." In fact, this orchid is given to Miss Rong, and you have nothing to lose, anyway, in your hands, it is also a death. "This guy. Angry at Yu Qingming's rudeness to Rong Yunhe. As long as you seize the opportunity, you will stab Yu Qingming with a few words.
"I have a request, though." Li Qi ignored Fu Heng's ridicule, turned his head to Rong Yunhe and said, "If Miss Rong can feed it, can you let us take a look?" ”
Rong Yunhe immediately shook his head when he heard this: "I proposed this bet just to show that I have confidence in my own judgment, and I don't have the ability to grow this orchid." So Li Gongzi's request, I can't agree. "What a joke. If more than ten days later, this orchid appeared in front of them vigorously. She must not be studied all day long as a guinea pig? She wouldn't do this kind of stupid thing.
When Yu Qingming heard this, he finally felt a little more comfortable. He reached out and stroked his few locks of goatee, and sneered: "I really thought this little girl was a master planter, but she was just a person who could just say that she couldn't do it." Who wouldn't touch their mouths? As long as you memorize two paragraphs in the book, go to someone else's garden and talk nonsense, and pat your ass and leave, this kind of fame and reputation fisherman has seen a lot. ”
Rong Yunhe was immediately annoyed when he heard this. This old man really doesn't know what to do. I wanted to take a step back and open the sky, but I didn't want to "there is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no door to hell for you to come". If you want to find death by yourself, this girl is not welcome.
She immediately said: "Mr. Yu, because you are old, so call you sir, don't think that you are really anyone's husband, and you can't allow others to put forward different opinions." The reason why orchids have become a science is nothing more than that it is very denatured, and no one can see the time when it is not flowering. If you plant an orchid, everyone can say what they understand. But I don't want Mr. Yu to be so narrow-minded, not allowing others to put forward different opinions, and repeatedly forcing a junior into a desperate situation. Since Mr. Yu said so, then I won't say much, so let's make another bet - if I can grow this orchid alive, how will you stay? ”
Yu Qingming has always been a high-minded and arrogant person, and now he is being ridiculed by a child pointing his nose like this, this is the first time, he immediately trembled with anger, pointed at Rong Yunhe and said: "Okay, yes, no problem." If you can plant it alive in a month, and let it grow a third leaf, I will pay you a hundred taels of silver; If you can't support it, or if you will be like this in a month, you will pay me a hundred taels of silver. What do you think? ”
"Well, this is what you said about a gentleman, and it is difficult for a horse to chase. Now that Li Gongzi and Su Gongzi are witnessing, none of us can be reliant. Rong Yunhe was overjoyed when he heard it. She was still worried about how to make money, but she didn't expect this business to be sent to the door. With space in hand, as long as this orchid still has a breath, she can grow it alive. A hundred taels of silver, it was like a gift to her. Besides, people compete for a breath, and the Buddha fights for a pillar of incense. was forced to do this by others, she couldn't admit it, even if it attracted Li Qi's attention, she couldn't care about it.
It's a big deal to raise the flower, then move it out of the space, and water some diluted space water every day so that it doesn't grow so fast. But for the sake of insurance, she still added: "It won't take a month, as long as it can grow a third leaf, I'll show it to you, even if this bet is over, what do you think?" ”
"Okay." Yu Qingming sneered. Although their family used to be powerful, they have always been masters of orchid planting, and they have been planting orchids since their ancestors. In this Yanbei, if he admits the second, no one dares to admit the first. So he can't raise orchids, he doesn't believe that there are still people in this world who can feed them. This little girl wants to find death herself, and he has fulfilled her, which can be regarded as adult beauty.
In fact, the reason why Yu Qingming used words to provoke Rong Yunhe to make this bet with him was that he was subconsciously afraid that his green cloud bet would be lost. After all, he has seen all the characteristics that Rong Yunhe talked about, and he is really beating the drum in his heart. If the time comes, the flower is indeed a big lotus as Rong Yunhe said. Then he will lose his face.
Now Ji Rong Yunhe made another bet with him, even if the Green Cloud bet was lost, it would be one-on-one. Don't laugh at anyone, he can be regarded as helping himself to regain a little face. As for Rong Yunhe's ability to plant this dying orchid alive, but it was completely out of his consideration, he felt that it was completely impossible.
Seeing that the two of them were in a hurry to talk and gamble again, Li Qi and Fu Heng looked at me, I looked at you and were stunned for a while, and then they both smiled bitterly. Didn't speak. Li Qi turned his head to look at the withered yellow orchid, and there was a faint hint of anticipation in his heart.
Yu Qingming simply found a clay pot and came out. moved the withered yellow orchid to the pot with mud and put it in front of Rong Yunhe.
Rong Yunhe looked at this orchid, and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes. Just now she turned around the entire orchid garden, except for the suspected Zheng Tonghe. Only the dying orchid in front of him was a little foggy. But that one is suspected to be Zheng Tong's lotus leaf-shaped turquoise. The flower bud is already very large, it is estimated that Li Qi is going to take it to the flower viewing party in a few days, and it is absolutely impossible to take it away. Fortunately, the orchid in front of her withered so much that she made a request in the name of a bet. Now it's good, I got it without spending a penny, and I picked a big bargain, how can this not make Rong Yunhe happy?
This orchid is in hand. Rong Yunhe made up his mind and asked Li Qi, "I don't know what day the flower viewing meeting is?" How do I participate? ”
Li Qi nodded and smiled: "I was about to tell Miss Rong about this." I want to invite Miss Rong to see the excitement together. After speaking, he took out an invitation card the size of a postcard from his bosom and handed it to Rong Yunhe, "This is an invitation to the flower viewing party." I think it's good, Miss Rong said a location, and I will send someone to pick you up on that day, and participate together, what do you think? ”
As soon as Li Qi's words fell, Fu Heng stretched out his hand and took the invitation card, and said with a smile: "Li Gongzi, you are not right." How can I just invite the newly-met Miss Rong, and my old brother will be thrown aside? You're too boring, aren't you? ”
Li Qi glared at him: "Looking for your father, he has a lot of them." ”
Rong Yunhe didn't care about Fu Heng's sideways. She smiled and said, "If there are flowers to participate in, I don't know how?" ”
"Miss Rong has flowers to compete?" As soon as these words came out, not only Li Qi and Fu Heng were taken aback, but even Yu Qingming looked at them in surprise.
Rong Yunhe was not very confident in the orchids and "dead branches" in his space, but when he looked at Li Qi's orchid garden today, he confirmed one thing - only precious and valuable flowers and trees have fog, and the more precious the flowers, the thicker the fog. The mist of the two flowers in her space is thicker than all the flowers in this orchid garden, which means that the flower should be more precious, at least that orchid is more precious than all the orchids in Li Qi's hand. In that case, why wouldn't she try her luck when she didn't enjoy the flowers?
So hearing Li Qi ask like this, Rong Yunhe smiled and said, "One or two wildflowers, just join in the fun." However, I don't know anything about the flower viewing party, and I hope that Li Gongzi can explain the various rules to me. "The ancients paid attention to modesty, although Rong Yunhe felt that it was hypocrisy, but she naturally had to learn to be humble when she followed the customs.
"In the past two days, Miss Rong will go to Qunfangyuan outside Zhang Linyun in the east of the city to register for a name, pay a deposit of ten taels of silver, and then get a special invitation; On the twenty-seventh day, you take your flowers to the Qunfang Garden, and they will determine which garden to enter according to the preciousness of your flowers; If your flowers can enter Yipinyuan, then you have to prepare a poem. On the 28th, Qunfang Garden will be open to everyone, and several old people in the city who are highly respected and have studied flowers will score the flowers that enter the Yipin Garden in front of everyone, and select ten flowers on the spot; If your flower is lucky enough to be in the top 10, then you have to write down your poem on the spot, attach it to the flower, and the old man will rate it again. Regardless of whether your flowers and poems can enter the top three, you can take that invitation card the next day, go to Qunfang Garden to get the flowers and deposit, and if you win, there will be a prize silver, and you can get it back. ”
Rong Yunhe thought about these words in his mind, and he really remembered them all, so he smiled and said, "Clear, thank you Li Gongzi." However, if you have to hand over the flowers to Qunfang Garden a day in advance, will they make a mistake about the flowers? ”
Li Qi laughed: "Miss Rong is as relieved as possible. Zhang Yuanwai is the strictest and fairest old man in Pingzhou City. And on the 27th, they had at least three judges together to receive the flowers and trees. The flowers and trees you hand over to them, whether they are the species or the characteristics, they will write on your invitation card and add a number. There will never be favoritism. ”
"That's good, that's good." Rong Yunhe put his mind at ease. She has no money and no power, if the fine orchid is dropped, there is really no reason to go.
Li Qi said again: "I'm looking forward to Miss Rong's flowers." Why don't we go in together on the 28th, and everyone can chat while sitting together, and it will be lively. ”
Rong Yun didn't know anyone at the flower viewing party, and it was very boring to stay there alone. As soon as Li Qi said this, Rong Yunhe was really moved. But...... She remembered her identity, glanced at Fu Heng and was about to refuse, but Fu Heng hurriedly replied: "I was also going that day, why don't you let Miss Rong go with me." ”
What's the matter, this guy is all having fun? Rong Yunhe rolled his eyes in his heart and said, "There must have been a lot of people in the garden that day, and it was troublesome to find." It's better to meet by chance than to meet on that day. Then he got up and took his leave.
I also saw this flower and gambled, so Li Qi didn't force it to stay, and said, "It just so happens that I want to go home too, let's go together." ”
Rong Yunhe was about to reach out to hold the flower pot in front of him, but he didn't want Fu Heng to stretch out his long arms, so he took the flower pot in his hand and showed a mouthful of white teeth to her: "I'll help you hold it." ”
In his previous life, there were often people who did this kind of action diligently, Rong Yunhe shrugged, but he didn't care, and followed Li Qi out of the Orchid Garden.
Coming out of the house, Li Qi was about to ask them to get into the car, but he didn't want an extra carriage next to his car. The half-old navy blue mantle, the wide and thick carriage, and the white tall horse were the carriages that Fu Heng sent Rong Yunhe home that day.
Fu Heng arched his hand at Li Qi and grinned: "That's my car, I'll just send Miss Rong, Brother Li go home." Leave. ”
Li Qi ignored him, turned his head and glanced at Rong Yunhe deeply, and said in a low voice: "Miss Rong, I'll send you back." ”
"I'll take Su Gongzi's carriage to the city gate, and I won't trouble Li Gongzi." Rong Yunhe bowed his hand to Li Qi and got into Fu Heng's car. (To be continued.) )
