Chapter 49: The Preliminary Election Release

"Not the same person?"

The owner's fingertips crossed the moon-white embroidery surface, and took the small embroidery painted with "forty-nine", and compared it carefully.

Different people, even if they learn the same embroidery method, the embroidery style will be different, although the two embroideries in front of them are made of different materials, but the style is very consistent, absolutely the same person embroidered.

"Steward, which one is the fifty?"

Hearing the owner's question, the steward who had already turned to that page immediately replied: "It is also the Lu family, it is the third daughter of the Lu family, named Lu Yunqing, who is twelve years old this year. ”

"Master, it's obvious. It must have been this Lu Yunqing who stole her eldest sister's hard work. ”

A young woman sitting next to the owner said with a look of disgust: "It's shameful to learn to steal at such a young age. ”

"Yes, Master, Senior Sister is right."

Several other embroidery girls chimed in: "Such a little girl with bad character, even if she is versatile, she can't be allowed to enter the house." ”

"The apprentice thinks that the master might as well cross her out directly, and then go to the lord of the mansion, so as not to take advantage of other loopholes to pass the primary election."

Embroidery girls, you and I say a word, as if you have a deep hatred for Lu Yunqing, and I can't wait to beat her into the eighteenth layer of hell.

The owner looked at this scene with tears and laughter, but he was a little disappointed in his heart.

These girls look at things too one-sidedly, just based on preconceived ideas, they want to cut off Lu Yunqing's future, so if they are so inconsiderate, how can they take over her class?

At this moment, an embroidery lady sitting in the corner whispered: "What if it is not Lu Yunqing who steals the embroidery, but Lu Jinzhi?" ”

The embroidery lady sitting next to the owner immediately frowned, "Sister, what do you mean?" You also heard what the steward said just now, Lu Jinzhi is fifteen years old, and Lu Yunqing is only twelve years old, naturally the younger one stole the older one, the master also said that embroidery is designed to make perfect with practice, and three years of embroidery can not be made up for by talent alone. ”

"That's it, little junior sister, you're thinking too much, aren't you?"

"What Senior Sister said can be wrong?"

Seeing that a group of apprentices were about to quarrel, the owner suddenly turned pale and reprimanded: "What are you arguing about? are all people who are not confused, as for quarreling over this little thing? ”

As soon as the master spoke, everyone immediately fell silent and watched what the master wanted to do.

The owner looked back at the embroidery thread in his hand, pondered for a moment, and said, "Steward, remember, the fiftyth passed the primary election." ”

When the steward heard this, he was about to cross out Lu Yunqing, and when the pen and ink touched the paper, he reacted and said in shock: "Pass? ”

"Yes."

The owner nodded slightly, "Which of these two people is the thief, since we can't judge, it's better for both of them to enter the retest, and then we can see which is right and which is wrong." ”

The steward nodded with a smile, drew a red circle on Lu Yunqing's name, but muttered to himself in his heart.

"Isn't that obvious? Why do you have to do more, these girls can really toss......"

The embroidery girl who was called "Senior Sister" saw that the master actually listened to the words of the little junior sister, and felt a little uncomfortable, but when the master was present, she didn't dare to make a mistake, she only dared to stare at the little junior sister fiercely, and then quietly picked up the embroidery again.

After the interlude, the embroidery review room returned to calm.

In a blink of an eye, the gentlemen in charge of the other six arts completed the review in just two days, and each of them left, leaving only the four gentlemen of embroidery, politics, painting, and calligraphy who came every day, for which the four of them were a lot haggard, and the mountains of works in the review room were becoming less and less visible to the naked eye.

On this day, review the room.

Mr. Wang, who was in charge of reviewing the calligraphy, got a pair of ink treasures, and his eyes lit up slightly, "This character already has its own style, although it is still far from everyone's level, but among these ink treasures, it is the best." ”

Thinking of this, Mr. Wang asked the steward to check the roster, only to learn that the owner of this ink treasure was Lu Dong'er, the fifth lady of the Lu family.

"The Lu family?"

Mr. Wang seemed to remember something, and asked in a low voice: "A few days ago, there was a pair of ink treasures that could also be seen, could it also be from the Lu family?" ”

The steward hurriedly smiled and said, "Mr. has a really good memory, she is the second daughter of the Lu family, Lu Yinfeng." ”

Mr. Wang stroked his beard and bowed slightly, and said: "This Lu family is a little good at cultivating children, but I don't know if these ink treasures are real or fake others......

Mr. Qi, who was sitting next to him reviewing the paintings, heard his muttering and couldn't help but smile: "Brother Qi, why bother yourself? Among them, the truth and falsehood have to be retested, and the real gold can be found, and I am afraid that there will be less than 100 people who have passed the retest, and the lord of the house will be embarrassed. ”

"Brother Qi is reasonable."

Mr. Wang bowed slightly, and said to the steward: "On the 23rd, pass the primary election." ”

After persuading Mr. Wang, Qi Xiansheng crossed the life of the owner of the painting in his hand, and then pulled out the next one from a stack of rice paper, and then his gaze immediately condensed a little.

In this painting, there is a scene of returning to the garden and rural dwelling, the composition is simple, the brush and ink are not much, and there is a blank space, and it seems that only a few strokes can outline this painting.

But he knew that all this was an illusion.

It can outline the artistic conception of leisurely seclusion with a few simple lines and a few strokes, and with the blank space of ink, even if outsiders look at it, there will be a sense of fluttering immortals.

At the edge of the painting, you can clearly see a line of Juanxiu small character inscription - the third daughter of the Lu family, Lu Yunqing, created by Hanmei Academy.

"It's a masterpiece!"

A trace of absurdity rose in Mr. Qi's heart, in the selection of female students, there was actually a masterpiece?! Which girl is so ignorant of the sky and the height of the earth, and she submitted a masterpiece to someone else?

What made him even more incomprehensible was that he had never seen such a style of painting, and a famous hidden artist must cherish feathers, so it was impossible for him to help others cheat.

Shaking his head, Mr. Qi struggled several times, but still asked the steward to draw a red circle for Lu Yunqing.

He wanted to see with his own eyes how beautiful this little girl looked so beautiful that he could ask a famous artist to paint for her.

It seems that the steward ranked Lu Yunqing's Mobao political documents behind, and not long after, Mr. Chen got Lu Yunqing's political documents.

After reading the whole story, Mr. Chen was not angry, but his brows were furrowed, and his heart was uneasy.

"Will the situation in the capital change greatly? It is also said that the urban construction of Luzhou is insufficient, and there will be a plague rampant in midsummer? What is this, and how does urban construction and the plague relate? It's nonsense. ”

Mr. Chen's hand clenched the paper slightly, he had experienced the plague as a child, and of course he knew what a terrible disaster it was.

Seeing that his expression was different, Mr. Wang turned his head to look at it, and couldn't help laughing: "It's full of alarmism, but it's just to attract people's attention, why does Brother Chen care so much?" ”

Mr. Chen came back to his senses, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's nothing, what Brother Wang said is good, but there are very few arguments in these political documents, and it is difficult to choose." ”

Mr. Wang sighed lightly when he heard this, and bowed his head slightly in agreement: "Who is not a tall man among the short people?" ”

With that, Mr. Wang turned his gaze back.

Mr. Chen's eyes flashed, and he said to the steward: "No. 50, I don't pass the primary election." ”

The steward hurriedly crossed out Lu Yunqing's name.

Mr. Chen frowned, but he still cared a little in his heart, hesitated for a moment, and unexpectedly took the article into his arms.

……

Half a month passed in a flash, and the gentlemen finally completed the review of all the works and went home to rest.

Next, sorting out and releasing these tasks is the business of the school administrators.

In the period when the list was approaching, both Luzhou City and nearby villages and towns were talking about the selection of female students, and some good people claimed that they had gone through the back door and knew the results of the primary elections of many family children, and then they made a lot of money, and the government couldn't catch it.

Mr. Reviewer's home is frequently visited to inquire about the results, and there are even thefts, which is a headache.

This situation lasted until the day of the release of the list, and it was completely stopped.

"It's out! It's time to put the charts out! ”

The shouting in front of the Hanmei Academy in Luzhou City spread all over the streets, and in the blink of an eye, countless squatting servants rushed over, squeezing in front of the list and scolding.

"Don't squeeze don't squeeze, I'm literate, I'll listen to you every year!"

"I'm literate, too! I'm literate, too! ”

"Ouch, who stepped on my feet!"

“……”

Among a group of servants, the old housekeeper was crowded quite hard, and he could vaguely see the name on the list through the cracks, the young lady did not expose his medical skills, he thought that he would need to search for Lu Yunqing's name to find it, but who knew that he saw it in the first row.

"Lu Yunqing, second grade. But then there is no way back for me. ”

"Miss has passed the primary election!

The old housekeeper's face was overjoyed, and then his expression became complicated, when he was old, he chose another master, although he didn't show anything on the surface, and even comforted Lu Yunqing out loud, but how could there be no pressure in his heart.

He is under more pressure than Lu Yunqing.

If the third girl finally fails, at most she will continue to be kept captive by the old lady, and he will probably be whipped to death for the crime of "evil slave and traitor".

Sighing slightly, the old butler squeezed a small step forward with difficulty, and continued to read the list text.

The list is extremely long, and after careful counting, it is only after a careful count that there are nine hundred and eighty-three names on the list, and after the old housekeeper read them all, he was stunned to find that all the girls of the Lu family, except for the fourth girl Lu Jinzhu, were all on the list, and even Lu Dong'er passed.

"It's... This...... Could it be that the primary election is not demanding? ”

The old butler muttered to himself in a low voice, and was immediately listened to by a person next to him, and retorted: "Not high? There are more than 6,000 young ladies from all over the primary election this time, and seven or eight out of ten have been brushed off in just one primary election, which is not high?! Uncle, what a strange idea you have. ”

"That's what the little brother said."

The old butler smiled, and then pointed to the list and asked, "I don't know if the little brother knows the difference between the first, second and third grades behind the name?" ”

He just saw it, except for Lu Yunqing, who was marked with the second grade, the other girls in the family were all among the third grade.

"Uncle, you're asking the right person!
