"Frozen to death?" Bai Qingshuang was surprised, "So strict?" ”

I couldn't help but look up at the sun that had broken through the clouds in the east, and the white swaying seemed to be very pale and weak, and I didn't feel a little warmth.

This is a ghost weather!

"Not only our family, but also the flowers and trees of the neighbors have suffered, I really don't know why the weather is so abnormal this year!" Wan Niang followed Bai Qingshuang inside, and told Bai Qingshuang about the things they overheard or inquired about on the way they came, "When we came out, we met a few flower sellers we knew, and I said the same!" are lamenting that this year's plum blossom festival is going to fail! ”

The Plum Blossom Festival, which is an annual festival of the National Dynasty, is different from the Dragon Boat Festival dragon boat race, which has a limited number of competitors.

However, the plum blossom festival of Chongshan Temple welcomes all good men and women to go to enjoy the plum blossoms and eat fasting meals.

Of course, if all the good men and women in the whole capital have flocked to Chongshan Temple, then it is necessary to crush Chongshan Temple, so there are also prescribed numbers, the plum blossom festival is three days, the daily reception of people, the flow of 2,000 people, vegetarian food is 1,000 servings, first come, first served.

Generally, on the first and second days, the good men and women of the dignitaries in the capital go to enjoy the plum blossoms and eat fast, because they want to offer incense money, and the third day is the ordinary people, whether to offer incense money or not, to offer more and less, depending on your own sincerity.

There are many kinds of plum blossoms in Chongshan Temple, there are wax plums, red plums, pink plums, more precious green plums, I heard that there is also a double-petaled plum blossom with purple and blue flowers, it is grafted and planted by the Emperor and Concubine herself, it is very rare, and is enshrined in an independent courtyard by Chongshan Temple as the treasure of the town temple.

The walls around the courtyard are so high that you can't see anything from the outside, and if you want to go in and admire it, you have to have the emperor's decree in addition to the abbot's approval.

In later generations, the grafting technology was superb, and flowers and plants of various colors had been seen, so Bai Qingshuang was not very interested in this rumor that not many people had seen with their own eyes.

It's just that Wan Niang's exclamation also echoed a little: "Yes, I don't know if the plum blossoms of Chongshan Temple can escape this catastrophe!" ”

"The flower girls are also missing one income!" Wan Niang said, "No matter how beautiful and beautiful the plum blossoms of Chongshan Temple are, they are not allowed to climb and break, so the flower girls will take advantage of the cold to sell the plum blossoms planted at home in Chongshan Temple, so as to make some small money for the New Year, and this year is going to soak in the soup!" ”

At this time, Wanniang really sighed that they had a warm house and a flower shop, otherwise, they would have to celebrate the New Year empty-handed.

After visiting the conservatory and seeing that the flowers and trees in the flower room were really full of energy, Wan Niang's heart became much more steady, and she had breakfast with Zhou Ming at Bai's house.

Then, Bai Zhihong took Bai Qingfeng to the academy, and Bai Qingshuang drove the carriage to open a shop.

It was about the sudden cold snap that struck, the street was empty, and even the people who usually get up early to buy vegetables couldn't see it, even a few shops next door, except for the breakfast, I didn't see a few open.

When I opened the door, there was still the residual temperature of the charcoal burning last night in the shop, which was obviously much warmer than outside. Therefore, the flowers left yesterday were not frozen to death except for a slight dry accident due to dry air.

Zhou Ming burned charcoal, Bai Qingshuang and Wan Niang watered the flowers, and after being busy for a quarter of an hour, they were about to move a pot of chrysanthemums out to indicate that it was open for business today, when they heard the sound of a carriage stopping in front of the store.

Then Meng Guanxing's crisp voice shouted as he approached: "Sister Shuang, do you still open a shop on such a cold day?" ”

"Second Miss!" Bai Qingshuang and Wan Niang immediately welcomed people in.

Today's Meng Guanxing is wearing a pink floral cloisonné jacket, and the collar and sleeves are surrounded by the snow-white fox fur that is warm when you look at it.

Under the silk yellow pin skirt, the embroidered shoes that exposed the skirt have been replaced with thick embroidered cotton shoes.

Wearing a hooded mink cloak and holding a stove in his hand, he is definitely dressed for winter.

However, it was really cold like winter today.

After entering the house, she felt that it was very warm inside, so she asked Luluo to help her take off her cloak, and said: "Sister Shuang is so warm here, and I have charcoal burning in my room, why is it not as warm as my sister here?" ”

"Presumably because the second lady's room is too big!" The area is large, so it is naturally not as warm as a small room, Bai Qingshuang remembered that the small apartment she rented in order to go to work was also heated, but it was not warmer than at home, "Second Miss, on such a cold day, you can just let someone come if you need anything, why did you come directly in person?" ”

"Oh, speaking of which, why did I forget about Sister Shuang as soon as I saw it!" Meng Guanxing stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm here today, in addition to buying flowers for my mother, there is another important thing to tell Sister Shuang!" ”

"What?" Bai Qingshuang looked at her in surprise, what words can't be conveyed by others, but you have to brave the cold yourself?

"Early this morning, when my sister and I went to greet my mother, my sister said that she had recently found a god operator to calculate a hexagram, saying that such a cold weather would last until the New Year. Moreover, the further back on, the colder the weather becomes, but there will be a heavy snowstorm for three or five days in a row, which will crush many unstable houses, and the price of vegetables and charcoal will rise. Therefore, my sister asked my mother to prepare some more silver charcoal for the winter. I thought that my sister's flower shop also needed charcoal support, so I came over to talk to my sister! Meng Guanxing said the purpose of the future in one breath and the reason for pouring beans.

I could only hear the pothos beside her who helped her hold the big pothos straight to the corners of her forehead.

She remembered that the eldest lady said that this is a heavenly opportunity, and it should not be disclosed at will, and she said it to the second lady, which is already against the heavenly opportunity, so it is necessary to let the second lady and the second lady present, as well as her and the red goose, as well as the second lady's personal grandmother keep it secret, why did the second lady tell it to outsiders in a blink of an eye, doesn't this make the eldest lady embarrassed?

No wonder Mama Huang wanted to go out with her, the second lady didn't let her live, she only let herself follow, it turned out that she was afraid that Mama Huang would come and get in the way!

"Second Miss, is this true?" Wan Niang asked suspiciously.

It's only early October, and it's been so cold until the New Year, and it's going to be even colder, and there's going to be a big snowstorm in the near future, which isn't just a joke!

Bai Qingshuang was also surprised, is this the so-called abnormal weather? So how did the eldest lady know?

"I don't know if it's true or not!" Meng Guanxing tilted his head and said, "However, my mother said, whether it's true or not, it's always good to be prepared!" ”

She hadn't seen that god or something, but seeing that her sister was very cautious and mysterious, she couldn't help but come and talk to Bai Qingshuang, who had a good impression.

"Second Miss is right, thank you Second Miss for the reminder!" Three or five days of blizzard, that can't even get out! Bai Qingshuang secretly calculated, today and tomorrow will sell all the inventory in the flower shop, and wait for the third day, if the eldest lady is not accurate, then move some flowers out to sell.

"Brother Zhou, while there are no guests here, you can go to the market and buy more charcoal to store, not only for use in the shop, but also to prepare some at home. I also want to trouble you to go to the mountains to chop more firewood after you buy charcoal, which can be used to burn the kang and warm the house. ”

When the snow covers the mountains, it is not easy to chop firewood.

"Yes, Xianggong, I'll leave this to you!" Seeing that Bai Qingshuang believed Meng Guanxing's words, Wan Niang immediately gave Zhou Ming fifty taels of silver and urged him to buy charcoal and chop wood.

Without asking anything more, Bai Qingshuang knew that Meng Guanxing knew so much, so she returned to her other purpose of coming: "What kind of flowers does the second miss want to send to Madame?" ”

"Today is my mother's birthday, and I want to give her a bouquet of flowers!" Meng Guanxing said, "In addition, my chrysanthemums are frozen to death, I want to buy a few pots and give them back to my aunt, she likes chrysanthemums the most!" ”

Bai Qingshuang didn't care who the eldest lady in Meng Guanxing's mouth was, so he gave Meng Guanxing the three pots of chrysanthemums that were left over from yesterday's sale: "There are only three pots in the shop, if you want to, when Datong comes to work later, I will let him go to my house to pick a few pots for you to send to the house!" ”

"Huh? Didn't Sister Frost's chrysanthemums freeze to death? Meng Guanxing asked curiously.

"It's probably because my family has a conservatory, it seems that the temperature in the yard is warmer than outside, so some chrysanthemums placed near the conservatory are not frozen, but some of the farther away are frostbitten!" Bai Qingshuang didn't hide that Meng Guanxing had a warm house at home.

After all, people told her everything that her sister didn't let her say.

"Oooh! That's it! And Meng Guanxing is a child after all, so after being curious, he didn't ask more, but said, "Just buy these three pots first, and if you freeze to death in a few days, I'll buy them again!" ”

"Hmmm! That's good! Bai Qingshuang didn't expect those ladies to have the heart to move the flowers in and out to keep them warm, although the flowers were bought back and died, and her business was not bad, but people who love flowers and cherish flowers are always reluctant to let flowers and plants be ruined like that.

During the chat, a bouquet of birthday flowers for the mother with carnations, cannas and auspicious grass is matched under the skillful hands of Bai Qingshuang, wrapped in purple soft silk, noble and elegant, I wish the mother many blessings and longevity, happiness and auspiciousness!

When calculating the money, Bai Qingshuang only accepted three taels of silver from the chrysanthemum, and for Meng Guanxing's filial piety and friendly information, she repeatedly refused to accept the money for the bouquet.

Meng Guanxing was not short of money, so he would not take advantage of this, so after pushing Bai Qingshuang for a while, he had no choice but to give up at Bai Qingshuang's insistence.

But before leaving, he still asked Luluo to press two taels of silver under the account book, and only found out when Bai Qingshuang and Wanniang sent them away and returned to the house.

"These two young ladies are really politely tight!" Wan Niang smiled helplessly.

Bai Qingshuang couldn't cry or laugh, this little girl is not very old, but she is very sympathetic, probably because she thinks that it is not easy for them to get up early and return late every day to do business, so she refuses to take advantage of them.

At this time, in the car, Lu Pothos said with some concern: "Second Miss, didn't the eldest lady not let us tell outsiders about this, saying that it would leak the secret of heaven!" ”

"Sister Shuang is not an outsider!" Meng Guanxing held the carnation bouquet with his own hands, which was a matter of course, and of course, he didn't forget to warn the green pothos, "After returning home, you can't talk too much, otherwise I won't take you out to play next time!" ”

"Yes!" The pothos had long been scorched on the outside and tender on the inside by her sentence that Sister Frost was not an outsider.

When did the second lady treat an outsider as a relative to see herself! In this matter, even if she lends her ten guts, she doesn't dare to go back to the house and talk nonsense!
