As soon as the pot of lotus flowers was brought up, everyone was dumbfounded, they didn't expect that there really was such a lotus in the world. The flower was originally born extremely beautifully, and it was skillfully arranged by the owner, which made people look at it intently.

The people who sent flowers to participate in the election were not very satisfied, and they all felt that their lotus flowers were also very good, and they could compete with this blue-purple lotus. But the county order suddenly came out, whose flowers can still steal the limelight of this pot of lotus?

"There are such strange flowers in the world, just like in the paintings." The scholars who questioned the authenticity of this lotus were very embarrassed, "It's me who is lonely and unheard." ”

Liu Hanzhi was even more surprised, and asked Gu Sixing beside him in a low voice: "One of the two girls who embroidered just now is your sister, right?" This flower belongs to your family? ”

Gu Sixing replied: "My sister-in-law is a flower lover and is very good at planting flowers and plants, and this lotus flower is also a new variety that she stumbled upon. ”

Liu Hanzhi smiled: "When you say this, I really want to go to your house to have a look." ”

Gu Sixing smiled: "What's so difficult about this? After a few days of rest, you and Zixi will come to my house as guests. ”

Liu Hanzhi hurriedly agreed, looking forward to the Gu family's appointment.

Although everyone thinks that the two embroidered fans are very good, they didn't vote much because they weren't painted. In the end, the highest vote was Liu Hanzhi's ink lotus, which was only black and white on the picture, but it painted a lotus flower that still did not bow its head under the storm, which was shocking. Jiang Xuehe and Gu Siyan also felt that this painting was the best one in the audience, and the others were basically convinced.

Xu County Ling gave him a picture of Mr. Weng Gui's lotus boat and cranes, Liu Hanzhi was very happy, and thanked him several times.

"You don't have to be so polite, looking at your young age, you should have a bright future, and a good score in the future will be regarded as the best thank you gift to the county." Xu Xianling patted him on the shoulder and was very optimistic about him.

Although it is said that a good painter may not be able to write articles, Liu Hanzhi is only fourteen years old now, and he has such painting skills, and he should not be a lonely and unknown person in the future.

Xu Xianling looked at Gu Sixian and Jiang Yunlan again and said with a smile: "As for the embroidery of the two girls, although I don't have a reward here, but my wife has it there, come over the two girls." ”

Gu Sixian and Jiang Yunlan didn't expect that there was really something about the two of them, so they stepped forward curiously.

Tao smiled and inserted a golden step shake for each of them, Gu Sixian's one is a butterfly wearing flowers, as long as it moves slightly, the butterfly will flap its wings, as if it is alive. The one given to Jiang Yunlan is a three-flower vertical silk, which is also very good-looking, and the two little girls are very happy to see it.

"Thank you, ma'am."

Tao also liked them very much when he saw them, thinking that such a small county town could still give birth to so many girls with aura, and these two were even more ingenious, which was really surprising.

"You're welcome, you deserve it." Tao said with a smile, "When the autumn comes, the adults will definitely hold another chrysanthemum banquet, and you two must remember to come, I will wait to see your embroidery." ”

Gu Sixian and Jiang Yunlan nodded again and again, just looking at Jiang Xuehe's preparations this time, the flower banquet held by the county order is very beneficial to their family's flowers, so that more people can know that this flower is good, this county order is simply a living signboard.

After Tao gave the reward, he asked, "Can the two girls sell these two fans to me?" I really like these two fans. ”

Gu Sixian and Jiang Yunlan naturally didn't have anything to do: "If Madam likes it, we can just give it to you, you don't need to buy it specifically." ”

Tao said with a smile: "This is not good, we adults said early in the morning, we can't take advantage of the people in the slightest." Such a double-sided embroidery can be sold for more than 100 taels of silver in the capital. I won't be polite to you, so I'll give you a hundred taels each. ”

Where are Gu Sixian and Jiang Yunlan willing to accept it, they feel that it is already good for them to get a hairpin each, and it is difficult to accept this one hundred taels again.

Dow insisted on giving them a fortress: "I may have to ask two girls to embroider something for me in the future, so it should be a deposit." ”

So the two little girls shirked it again before they reluctantly accepted it.

This scene also made many people red-eyed, originally saw two people embroidering in the painting area, they were still laughing at others, and felt that the two of them were doing anything to attract the attention of the county order. Unexpectedly, people are really capable, not only embroidered such a beautiful double-sided embroidered fan, but also received the reward of the county order and the county order's wife.

Gu Dandan and Gu Shuangshuang were even more angry, thinking that when would even Gu Sixian's wild girl be able to make a big show? In the past, when the family was not separated, that girl didn't even have any decent clothes on her, and she didn't even dare to say it out loud.

And when they didn't split up in the past, they didn't know that Gu Sixian still had such embroidery work, if they had known that she had this ability, they wouldn't have split up, how could they have to lock Gu Sixian in the room and let her embroider and sell it every day. These two fans are two hundred taels, and according to the speed of one fan in one afternoon, they can earn tens of thousands of taels a year! That stinky girl dared to hide her secrets, and she must tell her mother when she goes back.

Then it was the selection of the flower area, Gu Siyan became a well-deserved first, and everyone was very strange, I don't know when such a number one person appeared in Songyue County.

"It's not out of nowhere, this Gu Siyan was originally a young genius, and he was the first every year when he was in Wenbo Academy." A student of Wenbo Academy said, "Later, it seems that his father died of illness, and he took a leave of absence to keep filial piety, and now it has been more than three years." ”

"When you say this, I seem to remember that there is indeed such a number one person in our county."

"Didn't you say he was sick and dying? Why is it that although people are thin, they are in good spirits? ”

"Some people say that he wasted it for three years, no matter how talented he was, now he should hurt Zhongyong, but I didn't expect this article to be so amazing."

Listening to everyone's praise, Jiang Xuehe was very happy, thinking that this trip was really worth it, not only the perfume lotus she planted was an instant hit, Gu Sixian and Jiang Yunlan also gained a certain popularity, and Gu Siyan's reputation back then began to return.

Xu Xianling also admired Gu Siyan very much, and immediately gave him a good inkstone, and gave Gu Sixing and another scholar in the top three a good wolf. Everyone can see that this county order attaches great importance to readers, and only the first prize is awarded in other selections, and only the top three in the flower writing area are available.

The final selection is the top in the painting, everyone's favorite is the blue-purple perfume lotus and the light green lotus, but this perfume lotus can also be used to make tea and cook, many scholars who have drunk perfume lotus tea have voted for perfume lotus, so the final winner became Jiang Xuehe's perfume lotus.

The perfume lotus appreciated Jiang Xuehe and let Yang Xiaohua take it on her behalf, and Xu County Ling was very curious to see that Jiang Xuehe had not come forward by herself, but it was not good to ask in front of everyone, so he directly appreciated Yang Xiaohua's stone pot of lotus. The stone pot has a simple shape and a large capacity, and can grow at least four or five lotus plants. There is also a small rockery and a few nice pebbles in the stone basin.

Yang Xiaohua felt that this county order was still strange and stingy, and the things given to others looked valuable, why was it their wife's turn to be either a piece of paper or a stone flower pot? There are a lot of such flower pots in their wife's house, but they are not as big as this.

As everyone knows, Xu Xianling has already died of heartache at this time, this thing is the only good thing he has found on the antique street, at least five or six hundred years. Although it cost twenty taels when I bought it, I can definitely sell it for more than three hundred taels when I take it to the capital and sell it to people who know the goods. Jiang Xuehe took a fancy to the stone basin from the beginning, and she could see at a glance that the stone basin was a good thing, and it was also very good-looking.

"This thing is heavier, doesn't the girl need to find someone to help? Or can I find two people to help the girl send her back? Xu Xianling felt that Jiang Xuehe was a little out of proportion, how could he ask a little girl to come up and get this kind of thing?

"Thank you for your concern, but don't bother." As Yang Xiaohua spoke, she lifted the big stone basin with one hand and walked steadily.

Originally, many people saw that the so-called flower food shop had won another reward and wanted to investigate, but when they saw Yang Xiaohua like this, they instantly dispelled this idea. Although they all think that the guards at home have good kung fu, they can't beat such brute force!

Of course, some people think that Yang Xiaohua has no time to be distracted when she walks with this thing on her shoulder, maybe she will be successfully followed by them? However, none of the people who followed out with such a mind were successful.

In addition to the stone basin, Xu Xianling also gave a more substantial reward, that is, he praised the perfume lotus planted by Jiang Xuehe, and said that he had bought five cans, and the tea he gave everyone was this kind of flower, and he gave a jar of ten taels.

When everyone heard this, their minds came alive, and they wondered who the person who this flower was, and if they could buy some seeds from her, wouldn't they have made a lot of money?

After it was over, Xu Yirou ran to ask Jiang Xuehe for new tea: "You still say that we are good friends, since you grow such a good thing, why don't you know to sell me a copy first?" ”

Jiang Xuehe smiled: "This flower has just bloomed, isn't it waiting for the county order to set the price?" There aren't many now, so I'll send you a can in a few days. ”

"That's okay, don't rely on me then!"

Jiang Xuehe said with a smile: "How can I ever rely on you." ”

"I just patronized and played with friends, and I didn't taste your cooking, nor did I drink your lotus tea." Xu Yirou said regretfully, "They all said that the perfume lotus is very fragrant, what kind of smell is it?" ”

Jiang Xuehe glanced at Shi Tong behind her, and thought to herself that it seemed that Xu Yirou's relationship with Shi Qigongzi had developed well.

"You try this incense powder, it is made by Yuxuan and I with perfume lotus, and the lotus flower is this smell." Jiang Xuehe said and handed her a small bottle.

Xu Yirou opened the porcelain vase, and as soon as she smelled the smell, she immediately fell in love: "It's so fragrant, how much more of this do you have there?" ”

"It's just four or five bottles, the flowers are limited, and I can't make too much."

Xu Yirou nodded regretfully, if there were only four or five bottles, Jiang Xuehe would definitely have to give them to others, so he wouldn't ask her for the time being.

After Xu Yirou left, Jiang Xuehe went to Tao again, and also offered a bottle of perfume made of lotus, which can be regarded as feeling that Tao took care of their family today, and Tao really liked the fragrance powder.
