Ye Mingzhu also seemed to feel something, and was suddenly shocked, and secretly glanced at Wang Zhihe's mother, and then glanced at Ye Xiaolou, who was held by the stars.

Obviously, I was isolated before, but this is only a little longer?

I couldn't help but secretly hate, and the handkerchief in my hand was about to be torn.

And Ye Xiaolou didn't have time to take care of them, so she came here for business.

The flower-viewing banquet is a good time for everyone to get closer before the hostess comes.

"Eh, did you hear that?"

"I heard that this new magistrate is a capable person, isn't this about to be the Dragon Boat Festival? I heard that this year's dragon boat race is going to be held? ”

"I also heard that not only do I have to do a big job, but I also said that I can organize my own dragon boat, and if I win the first place, there will be a generous bonus."

"Oh, it's going to be hilarious."

"But no, we haven't held a dragon boat race in many years?"

Everyone's minds are lively, although it costs a lot to hold a dragon boat race, but compared to the cost, you will only earn more.

In ancient times, there was no other pastime, everyone loved to have a good time, so that they had to spend a lot of money, which not only promoted consumption, but also improved the happiness index of the people, and also diluted the sluggish mood caused by the remnants of the prince before, and also increased the performance of the new magistrate, which is simply a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone.

It can be seen that this new magistrate is indeed not an ordinary person.

As a result, the county's wife, Yang, stepped on the point and appeared.

This is a woman in her prime, very gentle and virtuous, speaking slowly, looking quite soft and beautiful as a Jiangnan woman, but she is very dignified.

He is humble and speaks extraordinary, like a well-educated lady.

As soon as she appeared, everyone's eyes moved over, there were curious, naturally there were many stammering people, and more importantly, they wanted to find out the specific matters of the Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Race.

And she coped with it with ease, without the slightest restraint, and her words were just right, although she was not experienced in a hundred battles, she was also experienced.

Her smile was always gentle, and her expression did not change much, she was humble and polite with a touch of detachment, talking about the dragon boat race.

Although Ye Xiaolou is a talented lady, her status here is not the highest.

Most of the people who came this time were the housewives of the family with their juniors, and some of them also had orders, such as Zhu Ying's mother.

The family donated a foreigner, so how could her mother be called a Confucian, and the wife of the county was the same grade as the Yang family.

In the Great Xia Dynasty, all Confucians below the seventh rank were Confucians.

And Ye Xiaolou was only familiar with Zhu Ying, so he sat under Zhu Ying's mother, and both Zhu Ying and Cui Yulan sat on the embroidery pier behind them.

At this moment, you can see the difference in identity.

Those who were invited sat in the front row, in rose chairs, and those who came with them had to sit in small embroidery piers behind them.

And Zhu Ying is an idle person, seeing that what is being said over there is hot, she whispers to Ye Xiaolou to bite her ear.

"Sister Ye, it would be great if this was a dragon boat race, it must be very lively, if I am a man, I will also form a dragon boat team to compete, if I can get the first place, it will be great."

"One thousand taels, nearly one thousand taels of silver."

The little girl's eyes lit up, and Ye Xiaolou was also a little surprised.

That's a big deal, but then again, the wool comes from the sheep.

Looking at these wives who came, they also knew that this flower-viewing banquet was not set up for nothing?

He's words are not false, they are indeed going to pay for silver.

Sure enough, after a while, everyone began to discuss how much money they had.

I saw that Yang Ruren still said with a smile on his face: "Everyone is so enthusiastic about dragon boat racing, it is very good." ”

"I'm a newcomer, and I don't know much about Nankang City, but I just caught up with this annual Duanyang, so I wanted to make everyone lively."

"Since everyone thinks it's good to win a prize like 1,000 taels, it's decided."

"The first place is there, the second place, and the third place must have a saying."

As soon as these words fell, a woman in a dark purple dress answered: "How about the second place prize of eight hundred taels and the third place five hundred taels?" ”

As soon as these words fell, the woman dressed in crimson said, "I think it is better to take two taels for the first place, five hundred taels for the second, and two taels for the third place, and five taels for the third place?" There are more people participating in this way, and it is more lively. ”

These two fight in the ring, and the others say that they are good.

At this time, Yang Ruren smiled and said: "I think the second one is better, the purpose of our dragon boat race is to make the people lively, and the more people who participate, the more lively it will be." ”

"Why don't you choose the second one???"

Since she has spoken, naturally there is no objection.

So Yang Ruren continued to smile and said: "Since everyone has no objection, then we are discussing the matter of the bonus." ”

"This is one hundred taels of silver, which is the support of our government for our dragon boat race, everyone, more and less, are also a heart for the people of Nankang."

"I'm ashamed to say that my lord is an honest official, and he doesn't have any self-esteem, and I personally pay a hundred taels to make you laugh."

Everyone has long been mentally prepared, the official family is just a brick-thrower, and the next thing is the big show.

The last time she was pressed by others, the woman in the purple-clothed Huafu naturally didn't follow, tilted her head, and said directly: "The people of Nankang City can have parents and officials who love the people like children like the county magistrate, it is a blessing for the people." ”

"In that case, why don't I give a thousand taels."

After speaking, he squinted at the woman in the red dress, and the woman smiled: "Sister Zhang, the family is big, and the body is too much, I can't compare, if not, I will pay eight hundred taels." ”

I didn't earn any more, but I didn't mention much money.

There were two big families in front of them, and everyone donated in turn, but most of them were one or two hundred taels, or even less.

After all, no matter how much you donate, can there be more people? Wouldn't that be a waste of silver, anyway, it has already been wiped out to the public, so why bother?

After making a donation, Ye Xiaolou secretly calculated, it originally needed two thousand six hundred taels, but after this calculation, it turned out to be more than three hundred taels.

If she is donating money, it is just the icing on the cake, and besides, where is she willing to donate it?

Therefore when the maid came to her with the box, she did not move.

Zhu Ying beside her kindly reminded: "Sister Ye, it's your turn." ”

As soon as these words fell, everyone turned their heads to look at her, and Cui Yulan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and said with a red face: "Sister-in-law." ”

Ye Xiaolou still didn't move, and at this time, she also alarmed Yang Ruren, who was sitting in the first place, only to see her look at Ye Xiaolou and said with a smile: "This is the lady of Cui Xiucai's family, right?" ”

Ye Xiaolou moved at this time, and said, "Exactly." ”
