Ahem –

Although it is not good to think of a half-brother like this, it is indeed true.

Most of the women in front of them were rewarded with silver money bags, and those who were not selected naturally got nothing, and offered the same handicraft for nothing. There are very few people who are selected for both craftsmanship and selection.

Many people sighed: "This year is too strict." ”

"Yes, I look at that hairpin very good-looking, why can't it get into the eyes of adults?"

"The daughter of the Xie family looks pretty good, but it's a pity that her craftsmanship is not good......"

Lin Aqi was holding the bamboo jar, obviously without confidence.

She hoped to get the money, but knowing her weight, she still hoped that she wouldn't be ridiculed too badly.

Turning back quietly, Yunqi's calm and cold face was an indifferent gaze, and when he saw her turn around, he nodded at her, as if to comfort her.

Lin Archie curled the corners of his mouth at him and continued to move forward with the team.

Soon it was Zhu Ma's turn, and she nervously offered a handkerchief to report to her family: "Zhu Meilian, the third daughter of the Zhu family, has seen the township chief and the adults. ”

Mama looked at her unceremoniously from beginning to end: "Raise your head." ”

Zhu Ma's face did so, his eyes flustered.

Unexpectedly, Mama smiled: "This woman is good." ”

Seeing that all the adults had taken a closer look at her handicrafts and showed appreciative glances and smiles, Zhu Ma's face was relieved.

Parents!

My daughter is angry with you!

The Zhu family, who spent hundreds of dollars to build a good relationship: woo......

Although everyone in Xilin Village wondered why the freckles on Zhu Ma's face were gone, she was selected, which was a happy event in Xilin Village, and one more person would have a better chance of winning.

There are three in Qixiang Village and Hongfu Village, and there are only two in the largest Xilin Village.

Zhu Ma's face was appreciated, and he stood with Zhao Ermei.

Zhao Qianqian couldn't get used to Zhu Ma's face the most, so she quietly moved a step away while no one was paying attention, so as not to smoke herself with the smell of copper on her body.

In the face of everyone's congratulations, she didn't react for a while.

"No, no, it's all taught by my father well."

"Thank you for the praise of the villagers, the little girl is ashamed to be a ......"

Zhu Ma's face was complimented by everyone as if he was already a princess, and when he saw Lin Aqi at the end of the team, he lowered his voice slightly.

"Don't worry, folks, isn't there another one in our village? Lin Aqi is also very good, the bamboo jars she makes are very particular, and she has to be selected. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at the man in white again.

That person was so good-looking, not only her, but also many people frequently looked at him.

Wouldn't it be nice to get him in the thick of that? I don't have to go to the Good Education Hall to prepare for women.

Everyone looked at her, Lin Aqi was thin and shriveled, standing behind a tall woman, which made her stunted. Besides, she is too young, and it is estimated that her heart is not complete, so she just spends her daughter's day as a fun.

Everyone didn't have much hope, but some people more or less knew that she was lucky, and secretly looked forward to Lin Aqi being able to win glory for the village again.

Finally it was Lin Archie's turn, and she put the jar into her grandmother's hand: "Little girl Lin Archie, I studied under the master Lin Shaxiang, and I have seen all the adults. ”

She said frankly, without the slightest twist from the previous ones, but let Township Chief Yao take a look.

"Which master is your master, Lin Shaxiang?"

It's probably the last one, and the township chief is in a good mood, so he took the initiative to talk to her, everyone thought.

Lin Aqi looked at him, his eyes were calm, and he didn't forget to advertise: "My master is a well-known master of physiognomy, if Township Chief Yao wants to see the flowers and be counted as the heir of marriage, you can rest assured to find my master." ”

Mama stared at her dumbfounded, forgetting for a moment what she was supposed to say.

Township Chief Yao was also speechless by what she said, he is old, where can he see the heirs of marriage?

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

The other officials on the side were so suffocated that they were about to have internal injuries.

Yunqi couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth, this girl is really speechless.

"How does the township chief see my jar doing?"

Mama looked at this girl with a distorted face, and the women next to her made some hairpins and handkerchiefs, why did she make a bamboo jar? Or is it the kind that saves money? It's still pure bamboo, and it's not even dyed.

Before the words of the lesson could be spoken, Township Chief Yao stroked his beard and said, "You have been chosen." ”

Everyone was shocked, obviously Lin Archie didn't have much outstanding performance.

Lin Aqi himself didn't express much surprise at this, in short, as long as the township chief would give her fifty yuan, it was enough to pay twenty yuan more than last year!

Lin Aqi received the money and was about to find Yunqi to go home, but was stopped by the official halfway: "Miss Lin, not only your handicraft has been selected, but you have also been selected." ”

Yunqi's complexion suddenly turned bad.

Lin Aqi weighed the money bag and looked at the visitor: "This lord is not mistaken, how could the emperor like me like this?" ”

The official said: "What the township chief said in person, there will be no mistakes." ”

Lin Aqi tugged at Yunqi's sleeve, the latter had a cold face, and his young expression was serious, as if he was rejecting people thousands of miles away.

"Got it, stand down."

Lin Archie and the official: ?

The official's message had been brought, and Lin Archie had no choice but to turn back the same way.

"How dare you talk to an official like that?"

Lin Aqi was a little surprised.

Although she knew that his status was noble, she really saw his "majesty and courage" at this moment, and she was still a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Yunqi snorted coldly in his heart: "With his qualifications, it is impossible to see me at all." ”

Lin Aqi raised a smile: "That means I'm qualified!" ”

Yunqi couldn't bear to hit her.

"If you don't speak, you acquiesce!" She happily tossed the money bag and returned to the place where the person had just been chosen, shoulder to shoulder, shoulder to shoulder.

Many people have not left yet, including the selected "new Beinu" and the previous Beinu, and many people who don't want to leave after watching the excitement.

When Township Chief Yao saw her coming back, he called her with a smile: "Come here, I was about to say where you guys will go in the future, why are you running so fast?" ”

Lin Aqi glanced at Yunqi, and when he saw that he didn't say anything, he ran to everyone: "What else is the matter with Township Chief Yao?" ”

Zhu Ma didn't have a good face when he saw her.

She looked at the person behind Lin Archie, if she couldn't recruit such a breezy man, then it would be good for her to marry into the palace.

The township chief waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

"The selection of people is for the spring election, when all townships and provinces across the country will send outstanding women into the palace, our township is also a famous township, although it is remote, but the women are mostly down-to-earth, hard-working and kind......

Township Chief Yao gave a lot of encouragement, and Lin Aqi was drowsy when he heard it.

She whispered to Yun Qi, who came later: "I don't want to enter the palace, I guess I will be the first to be eliminated." ”

Yunqi was slightly surprised, and for some reason, he suddenly looked forward to it: "You don't want to be a concubine?" ”

"In the end, it's just a concubine, how can I find a man in the township to be the wife of the main house?"

Yunqi's heart was not much easier: "You want to find a local man?" ”

Lin Aqi shook his head again: "It's not all, it depends on what the master and the master mean, I will consider whom they ask me to marry." ”

Yun Qi pursed his lips and said no more.

Also, she is just a country woman, and he is a high prince, she saved herself in the fate meeting, and sooner or later she will return to the imperial city and continue to be the noble man on the high.

How could the two have anything else involved? He secretly laughed at himself, he really thought too much, but he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

The two whispered these words, and Township Chief Yao over there finally finished boasting and got to the point.

"From the day after tomorrow, the selected women will enter the good education hall, study with the prepared women who were selected together in the past, and select the best ten from them, and send them to the election in the spring of next year......"

"Ten!" There was a lot of talking.

Not to mention that there are more than ten people selected today, plus the year before and the year before last, there are probably as many as 100 people, and it is too difficult to be selected......

Lin Aqi showed a heartfelt smile: "It's okay, it's okay, the number of places is limited, then I'll be relieved." ”

What Lin Archie didn't expect was that she was so lucky that she had already been decided.

The two relaxed their guard, Yunqi saw that she was so stubborn, even if she was chosen, there was nothing probable, even if she really arrived in the palace, who could bear her temperament?

When I thought of the emperor's brother if he was married to her, I was afraid that he wouldn't even dare to go to the court.

When I went home and told my master and sister about this, my mother was so angry that she slapped her chopsticks.

Lin Archie and Yunqi were both taken aback by her.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Xing Sanniang had a cold face, and her eyes were full of hatred. Lin Aqi had never seen her have such a big liver fire, and she didn't even have the taste of fresh meat in her mouth for a while.

Lin Shaxiang put down the dishes and chopsticks: "Eliminate the gas and eliminate the gas, Archie, isn't this the primary election in the township?" In addition to our dozen or so villages, isn't there anything a little further away in the township? There are at least hundreds of women in the entire township—" He glanced at Lin Archie with some embarrassment, "We Archie may not be chosen." ”

Having said that, he felt in his heart that his apprentice was the best in the world.

It was rare for Lin Aqi not to talk back to the master this time, and timidly took a piece of fat and thin meat into the master's bowl, and looked at her quite flatteringly.

"Master, I don't want to go either, but Township Chief Yao said that my bamboo jar is doing well, and he said that I chose my ...... because I have a good foundation."

Xing Sanniang interrupted her: "What did he say that he said, have you forgotten what I taught you?" Or are you greedy for wealth and auspiciousness, and you have already given birth to such a showmanship? ”

Xing Sanniang completely cold-faced, and suddenly got up to look for a feather duster.

"Master, I'm wronged! I didn't-"

Lin Aqi panicked, jumped up in fright, and hurriedly hid behind Yun Qi.

As for why it's not behind the Master? Because Master is often beaten!

Yunqi is a guest, and there are still injuries on his body, so Shi Niang can't beat him together, right?

Lin Shaxiang and Yunqi hurriedly got up to stop them, and Xing Sanniang was furious: "You girl is not obedient at all!" What kind of place is that in the capital? How can you, a person with no identity and no background, mix? What will happen when the time comes, your master and I will be ashamed of our ancestors! ”
