Lu Li coughed dryly, "Although I have been in the palace more frequently than you recently, but after all, you are an official of the imperial court, and when it comes to these things, I am not as well-informed as you." ”

Seeing that the other party had thrown off the responsibility cleanly, Wei Xiuyuan was a little anxious, "Hey, hey! Lu Li, you're not too interesting, aren't you? I-"

"Brother Wei." Xiao Man interrupted with a smile, stood beside Lu Li, and said with a smile: "You are all in contact with the envoys of Canglan, you may really not know about this matter, okay, I won't say it anymore, wait until tomorrow I will go to the Jiang Mansion to ask, Lord Jiang should know." ”

"Yes, yes, that old fox knows everything, just ask him!" Wei Xiuyuan agreed.

But Lu Li was not happy when he heard this, he got up, frowned sideways and looked at the woman, a few hints of danger suddenly flashed in his eyes, "Lord Jiang knows everything?" ”

Xiao Man didn't know that the danger was coming, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said without hesitation: "That's right, Master Jiang said before that he wanted to help me introduce you!" I think the caravan from this Canglan country will come to me in a few days, and when the time comes, you have to let the people at the door pay attention, don't-"

"Xiaoman." Lu Li suddenly interrupted the woman.

Xiao Man was stunned, looked up at the man in a bit of a daze, blinked his eyes, and didn't know what was going on.

And Wei Xiuyuan and Xia Wanrou on the side were holding hands, leaning on their shoulders together, both smiling, especially Wei Xiuyuan, who also came to Xia Wanrou's ear from time to time to say something, causing the other party to laugh accidentally.

Lu Li coughed lightly, and then turned around, "I still have some things at home, so I'll go back first." ”

As he spoke, Lu Li took Xiao Man's hand and walked out of the Wei Mansion quickly.

Looking at the back of the two leaving, Xia Wanrou, who stayed in place, covered her lips and chuckled, "I didn't expect that Lu Li usually looks steady, but when he encounters Xiaoman's matter, he looks like a stunned young man." It's really a thing to drop a thing, and the brine points to tofu. ”

"Who knows, that Master Jiang is so much older than Xiaoman, and he has no other feelings for her, at most it is the care and support of the elders for the younger generations, I didn't expect Lu Li to eat this vinegar." Wei Xiuyuan also said with a grin.

However, Xiao Man never thought of understanding such a simple matter, and until she returned to the bedroom in the inner courtyard of the Lu Mansion, she didn't understand why Lu Li suddenly brought herself back.

Moreover, after coming back, Lu Li sat on the chair with a stiff face, didn't speak sullenly, and didn't even look at her.

Xiao Man became more and more puzzled, she couldn't help but step forward, leaned over slightly and tilted her head to look at the man's face, and said curiously: "Lu Li, what's wrong with you?" Did I say something wrong at Sister Wanrou's house just now? Why did you bring me back? ”

Lu Li glanced at her with his peripheral vision, and snorted lightly on the tip of his nose, but he still didn't respond.

"Lu Li?" Xiao Man squatted down directly, climbed the man's thighs with his arms, continued to blink at each other, and called each other in a different way: "Husband? My dear? Xianggong, sir, Lang-"

"Alright, alright, alright." Lu Li couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to help people up.

Finally coaxed Lu Li to speak, Xiaoman's big eyes were full of smiles, she couldn't help but come to Lu Li's side, bit her lower lip, and said carefully: "Lu Li, just now at Sister Wanrou's house, why are you suddenly unhappy?" Did I say something wrong? ”

Hearing this, Lu Li sighed and raised his eyes to look at Xiao Man, a little helpless.

He knew in his heart that Jiang Qiming took care of Xiao Man is elders, and Xiao Man treated Jiang Qiming with respect as an elder, but when Xiao Man mentioned Jiang Qiming's eyebrows, he was really a little awkward in his heart.

But if he said this, it seemed that he was too stingy, as if he didn't want Xiao Man to come into contact with Jiang Qiming again.

After being silent for a long time, Xiao Man couldn't help but call out loud: "Lu Li? ”

"Well, it's fine." Lu Li smiled, raised his hand and rubbed Xiaoman's cheeks, "By the way, how did you play, did it go well?" Are you going to go again tomorrow? ”

As soon as she talked about the competition, Xiao Manden became excited, and she didn't bother to ask Lu Li why she was like that, she sat on the chair next to Lu Li, talked about the topic of today's competition, and then talked about her own embroidery and so on.

Looking at Xiaoman's excited appearance, Lu Li couldn't help but smile, and the unevenness in his heart suddenly disappeared.

"By the way, there's one more thing that's really interesting." Xiao Man held Lu Li's hand, rubbing the other party's big palm, and said with a smile: "Today, when Sister Qin and I went to line up at the gate of Jiangfu, we met a woman who was very high-spirited and liked to stir up trouble. ”

When Lu Li heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said with a little worry: "Then she didn't embarrass you, right?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Man laughed out loud, pinched the other party's palm, and smiled so much that his eyes were bent, "Didn't I use a fake identity in this competition, but when I went to the hall of Jiangfu to wait, I found that this person liked me very much, and said things like 'Su Xiaoman is the best' and 'Su Xiaoman is the best', which made me embarrassed." ”

"And then?" Lu Li listened to it with relish and thought it was very interesting.

"What else can she do then, and she doesn't know who I am, and can she look the other way?" Xiao Man pouted and said, "She has such a high spirit, and she has had conflicts with me before, so it's okay if she doesn't target me later." ”

But after saying this, she couldn't help but worry about herself, and added: "But although she has a high heart, she thinks simply, she wants to embarrass me, it's not so easy!" ”

"Yes, yes, Su Xiaoman is the smartest and the most powerful." Lu Li smiled, looked at the woman dotingly and said.

This competition has a total of three competitions, and only the top 20 in the first two competitions can participate in the last competition, and Jiang Qiming will personally invigilate the selection so that the last ten people can be selected. These ten people can choose to enter the Jiang family, or they can choose to marry another bounty, it is all up to the individual, and they will not be reluctant.

And the top three in this competition, no matter how they choose, will receive generous honorariums.

The people who participated in this competition either wanted the honorarium or wanted to earn fame, but more importantly, they still wanted to become the embroidery girl of the Jiang family, or work in the Jiang family's shop, or make clothes for the people in the palace, which were better than the ordinary embroidery workshop in Shangjing.

On the first day of the competition, half of the people brushed down, because there were invigilators in each small courtyard, and the results of the competition were announced on the same day. Therefore, when everyone lined up again the next morning, it was obviously faster than yesterday.

Qin Chun and Xiao Man still held hands and entered the waiting hall, and unsurprisingly, they met the woman in red yesterday again.

She changed into a peacock green dress today, coupled with the gold earrings that fell on her ears and the pearls on her head, she looked more and more like clotted fat and rich. It's just that it's no surprise that the clothes she wears today are still made by the Manrou Ready-to-Wear Factory.

The style of Manrou Ready-to-Wear Workshop is different from other stores in Shangjing, so Xiao Man saw it at a glance yesterday, and today Qin Chunxu is not so nervous, and he can also see the clues of the other party's clothes.

She quietly tugged at Xiaoman's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Shopkeeper, the clothes she wears seem to be made in our shop." ”

"yes, I saw it yesterday." Xiao Man glanced at the peacock green woman who was laughing with everyone, covered his lips and chuckled: "You didn't see her appearance yesterday, she likes me so much, no wonder the clothes you bought are also from our store." ”

Although it is indeed strange for her to say this herself, the facts are there.

Qin Chun couldn't help but smile, but then pouted again, "She likes you so much, and she still buys clothes from our store, but she treated you like that yesterday, I get angry when I think about it." ”

"What's there to be angry about, she definitely hasn't seen me in person, so as soon as I change my name and identity, she won't know me." Xiao Man didn't take this matter to heart at all, but thought it was very funny, she continued to persuade: "Let's focus on the game, this is Jiangfu, no one dares to make trouble, just concentrate on the game." ”

"yes, I know." Qin Chun nodded solemnly, "I will definitely live up to the trust of the shopkeeper!" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Man smiled, raised his hand and pinched Qin Chun's shoulder, relieved: "Don't be so nervous, it doesn't matter if you don't get the top spot, after all, our purpose is different from theirs, we are not here to be the embroidery lady of Jiangfu, right?" ”

Listening to Xiao Man's words, Qin Chun's heart was finally a little lighter. Indeed, as the other party said, he didn't come to compete with these people for the position of Jiangfu Embroidery, even if he really couldn't get the top spot, he would have to retreat.

But after all, she still has to work hard, after all, this competition is to make up for her own regrets, to prove that she is qualified to go to the end that year, and even get the top position. Also, she wants to prove like the woman in red yesterday that she can get the top spot, and she is not too conceited!

Just thinking about it, the voice of the man from yesterday, that is, Wu Xing, the housekeeper of Jiang Mansion, came from the door: "Ahem! Everyone, be quiet, be quiet! ”

As he spoke, he opened the book in his hand, divided everyone into groups as he had done yesterday, and then led everyone to the courtyard of their respective competitions.

Today's grouping is not the same as yesterday, but it still doesn't allow people who know each other to get together in the same courtyard, so today, Xiao Man was neither separated from the woman in red nor with Qin Chun, but went to the courtyard of the competition with two other strangers.

"Today's topic-" Wu Xing dragged out his tone, slowly opened the silk silk in his arms, and looked at everyone with a stiff face.

I saw that the snow-white silk silk was slowly opened, and it was still snow-white, and there was no word!

"Steward Wu, why is there no word on this silk?"

Wu Xing put away the silk silk with his hands behind his back, and his face was expressionless: "Today's topic is - Untitled!" Let's do it ourselves! ”
