When I came out of the vegetable market, the wind rose, and the clouds in the sky gradually became inky.

In the spring, the weather was rainy, and it didn't clear for two days, and it seemed that it was going to rain again. Zhen Niang was planning to go home quickly. Not far away, I saw Sun Yuejuan coming over with a food box.

"Yuejuan." Zhen Niang couldn't help but say hello, since she returned to Huizhou at the end of last year, she has also met Sun Yuejuan, since Tian Benchang's accident, Sun Yuejuan has been living in a simple place. The two rarely met.

As for Tian Benchang, this guy is still in prison, and it stands to reason that he can be redeemed with money in this situation. It's just that, obviously, before Tian Er has not fully controlled the Tian family's ink workshop, Tian Er's brothers and sisters will not let him out, so that the Xu family has to help greet him secretly, and the yamen can't afford to offend the Xu family.

Therefore, no matter how hard the Sun family and Wang Cuiqiao work hard, they can only make Tian Benchang's life in prison a little better, and it is difficult to get out.

"Zhenniang." Seeing Zhenniang, Sun Yuejuan was also very happy.

"Where are you going?" Zhen Niang also squinted and asked with a smile, the small relationship between the two is the most innocent, although there is almost no contact now, but the greeting is also natural when they meet, without a little sense of alienation.

"I'll go to prison to deliver food." Sun Yuejuan said, raising the food box in her hand, her expression a little gloomy.

"Don't worry too much, people don't have a hundred days of good, flowers don't have a hundred days of red, there is no long-lasting thing in this world, I don't think the Xu family will always be like this, Tian Er They may not be able to rely on the Xu family all the time, if your family makes a little effort, your husband will be released after all." Zhen Niang said.

The Xu family will soon usher in a big storm. I want to come back then. As long as the Sun family makes some more effort. It was proper for Tian Benchang to be released. Of course, Zhen Niang doesn't care about whether Tian Benchang is released or not, but Sun Yuejuan still gives her a wake-up call because of her small relationship, of course, this reminder is only like a comfort now.

However, when something happens to the Xu family, the Sun family will naturally know what to do.

"Hmm. I understand. Sun Yuejuan nodded again, then coldened her face again, gritted her teeth and said: "Actually, even if there is the protection of the Xu family, the second child of the Tian family may not be able to get good, and the Tian family is secretly messing up now......" Speaking of this, Sun Yuejuan paused, and then waved her hand: "Don't talk about this, in short, I think." Benchang is not bad in prison now, at least he can have peace. ”

"Hmm." Zhenniang nodded. Although there are some things that Sun Yuejuan doesn't say, but in fact, here in Huizhou, which family still doesn't know which family's affairs? The situation of the Tian family, the Li family also knows it in their hearts.

Since the Tian family's master had a stroke last time, although his condition has improved, his body has actually collapsed a little, and now he is holding on, he doesn't fall, the Tian family is fine, but if he can't hold on, according to the current situation of the Tian family, there is no one who can support the Tian family, especially now that the Tian family's affairs are half of the master, this situation is not tolerated in any family, and then the Tian family's uncles or something will not stand up? How can a concubine like Chunzhi be in charge of the Tian family, and he can't tolerate Tian Er, a gentleman, after all, the Tian family is also a big family business, and everyone wants to bite this piece of fat.

And Tian Ronghua is actually looking at where this needle knot is, so she is also desperately trying to help her second brother win the right to pay tribute to ink this time, when the time comes, even if the old man Tian falls, and Tian Er has the support of the Mo Division, plus the Xu family's side, in this way, the rest of the Tian family can't make up their minds.

It can be said that this time the right to pay tribute to Mo, the Li family and the Tian family have reasons to fight and must fight.

The reason for the Li family's side is that the Li family is about to rise, and at the same time, Mrs. Li and the shopkeeper Li are not young, and I really don't know if they can hold out until the next Gongmo election.

Zhenniang didn't want her grandfather and seventh grandmother to have regrets.

After all, this time to fight for tribute, then fight to the death.

Later, the two chatted a few more words, Sun Yuejuan went to deliver food, and Zhen Niangzi also returned home.

Then he told his grandparents and parents about inviting the youngest daughter of the Shen family's aunt and garden mother-in-law to take care of the Shen family.

The Li family heard that the Shen family's aunt was willing to accompany the Shen family, which couldn't be better.

"By the way, when I went to find Aunt Shen today, I saw Wang Decai." Zhenniang remembered Wang Decai, so she said to her father and mother again.

"Wasn't he exiled? How did this come back? Li Jingfu slapped the table and said.

"I heard that it was a general amnesty given to the world, and then the Su family asked Tian Er to help people bring a plate to entangle, and then they came back." Zhen Niang told me the news she got from Aunt Shen.

"Jingfu's daughter-in-law, you have to go to Jinhua for this matter, tell him, and always pay attention." Old Li shopkeeper said, obviously thinking of going with Zhen Niang.

"Well, I know, I'll go in a minute." Zhao nodded, not showing himself.

In the next two days, the Li family solved the trouble of the Du family brothers, and prepared for the Gongmo campaign wholeheartedly.

In the evening, Zhen Niang and Mrs. Li were still checking the ink in the ink shop.

"Seventh grandmother, I think our Li family's tribute ink campaign ink will add another Li family's Sihe ink." Zhen Niang said to her seventh grandmother, she thought about it day and night in the past two days, the Tian family will test the ink and produce a Song Huizong's Su Hemo, and the family already has a way to squeeze it out, and the own ink test will come out of a Li Liuhe Sancai Mo, how can the Tian family not make up their minds about the Li Liuhe Sancai Mo, so, they have to be guarded against.

"I'm looking at Cheng, plus Li's Sihe Mo, it's always good to do more precautions." Old Madam Li nodded, this girl is doing things very safely

Li's Sihe ink is the famous ink of the Li family, that is, there is no Li's Liuhe Sancai ink, and it is also an ink product with a relatively large winning rate to compete for tribute.

In this way, everything was arranged, and the next day, it was the Gongmo campaign.

On the second day of April, this day is a big day for Huizhou ink industry. The rare ink mills have given workers a holiday. The idle workers all gathered in the Taibai Building by the river.

This year's Gongmo campaign is still in Taibai Building.

At this time, it was still early in the morning, and there was already a sea of people outside the Taibai Building.

Old Man Cheng and Qi Chun and Qi Ye will be under the willow tree by the river embankment, chatting while playing chess.

"Let's talk about it, this time the Li Tian family is fighting for tribute, who will win?" Qi Chun's subordinates said indifferently.

"It's hard to say, in fact, the two have their own advantages, but also have their own disadvantages, the Tian family is the last session of the tribute ink business, the relationship between the Mo Division has also gone thoroughly, there is a Xu family behind it, however, over the years, the Tian family has always been the old capital of the Luo family, not much innovation, and the Li family in the past two years, the creation of a family of ink products, at the same time Zhen Niang's girl is the princess's mansion worship, so, compared with the two, it is half a catty and eight taels." Speaking of this, Old Man Cheng paused for a moment before saying, "However, the Li family's six-in-three talents are very good. ”

Gathering the strengths of all families, this is the wish of every ink maker, but I didn't expect the Li family to come out first.

"No, this girl from the Li family is about to become fine, and a ink test meeting can be so exciting. Nowadays, the play "Mistaken Relationship" has become popular all over Huizhou, I heard that Wu Xi, Suzhou, and many opera gangs over there are learning this play, isn't this becoming a propaganda for the Li family's six and three talents every performance, and the Li family's girl is really good. Qi Chun sighed.

Then he frowned again, Cheng San has never had anyone to win, obviously the same as he thought, although the Li family's ink is good, but the Gongmo campaign does not only depend on the quality of the ink, the relationship is also a very important part.

Although, every election pays attention to fairness, but there has never been real fairness, no matter how good Li Jiamo is, Tian Jiamo is not bad, after all, he is Luo Mo's foundation, and he has a name worth 10,000 dollars.

And over the years, the imperial court has been using Luo Mo and Tian Mo, these two kinds of ink are the same thing, so, from this point of view, in fact, Tian Mo's acceptance is relatively large, not to mention, there is the Xu family behind it.

Although the princess's mansion is noble, its influence is incomparable to that of the Xu family.

At this moment, a cannon of hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren rang out, and the Gongmo campaign began.

At this time, in the Taibai Building, on the large seat in the north, sat the Ink Affairs Division, the adults of the Ink Appraisal Bureau and the ink testers. This year's ink testers are Yuan Bai, Kang You, Lu Chong, all of whom are famous painters, and calligraphers, especially Lu Chong, are the clansmen of the great painter Lu Ye, and his first-hand painting skills are said to be passed on by Lu Ye.

The merchants who participated in the Gongmo election were the Wuyuan Zhan family, Xiuning Xu family, Shezhou Li family and Tian family.

In the middle, there are several long tables, burning incense burners, and pen, ink, paper, and inkstones. After a while, a few painters tried ink here, and in the corner of the lobby, a few beautiful fans were kneeling in front of the small red clay stove, fanning the fire slightly, and tea was boiling on it.

Behind the lobby, separated by a screen, are the various businesses and celebrities who come to watch the ceremony.

"Offering ink." At this time, as the priest shouted, Zhan, Xu, Li, and Tian offered the ink they brought.

Then a few painters tried the ink.

After the Tian family and the Li family's ink test meeting, the Zhan Xu family no longer had any idea about the power of tribute and ink, and just wanted to let their own ink appear in front of the ink masters, which could be regarded as important participation.

However, these two can stand out among the many ink shops and get the right to compete for tribute, which is also extraordinary.

The Zhan family is a family of Wuyuan ink-making, the main consumer group of its ink is the ordinary people, the price is very cheap, and the design of the ink is quite affinity, this time to participate in the tribute selection is a group of family pleasure maps, although the ink quality is inferior, but it also attracted a good impression of the ink tester. It's also a bit of a winning.

The Xu family is a family of ink makers in Xiuning, and this time a group of collection ink to participate in the tribute selection, from carved plates to gold painting, the design is beautiful, and it also won a lot of color.

However, these two were eventually squeezed out by the Li family and the Tian family in terms of quality.

And the next highlight is Li Tian's tribute.
