Chapter 144 The Lady of the Constable's House (22)
Xiao Zhuoxuan took the bag from Xiaodai, and Gu Yuxi said, "Please help me put it on the empty stall over here."
"Flowers for sale! Flowers for sale! Not a hundred coins, not fifty coins. Only twenty-five or twenty coins!"
Xiao Zhuoxuan only saw that the flower wrappings had price tags tied on them, and when he looked at the person working hard to make wreaths for others, he thought she was very dazzling.
[Satisfaction: 50%]
"Girl, you are really speaking too highly of giving your friend wealth and glory."
Gu Yuxi said to the man fanning himself, "Ronghua, Ronghua, this splendor and wealth will naturally bloom."
"Hahaha, my dear brother, I didn't expect you to be tricked by this girl."
"You can pin this on hats and collars, and those gentlemen will look very handsome wearing it."
"Miss, can we men buy peach blossoms to bind flowers?"
Guo Jinlong said, "These peach blossoms are gifts between people who like each other, so don't ask, big brother."
Zhang Jin'er's cheeks turned slightly red. She felt that the woman selling flowers looked very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her.
Gu Yuxi pretended not to know these people and said with a smile: "Sir, what you said is not right. Where can we find peach blossoms now? Of course, we should go to higher mountains! As the saying goes, the water of Peach Blossom Pond is a thousand feet deep, but it is not as deep as the love my friend gave me.
You can give a beautiful compliment of "the peach blossoms are flourishing and radiant" to the one you admire, and you can also give this to a friend. "
"The girl is very eloquent. It would be unreasonable not to give her this peach blossom."
"Sir, you have a lot of people, buy some peach blossom wraps, and you can also give peach blossom bracelets to the girls!"
The maid came over and said, "Princess, if you don't buy it now, it will be sold out."
“Those people don’t buy expensive things…”
The next second, Xie Yunhuan saw that many of the items she liked had been taken away. She looked resentfully at the man who bought so many at once!
Seeing several masked men approaching, Xie Yunhuan, who had no money, saw her savior and said to the man, "Cousin, lend me some money. I want to buy a hairpin."
Xie Lize looked at the lively person and could only shake his head helplessly. He said to Ye Qi beside him: "Go with the princess to take a look."
"This stall is quite lively, with men and women, young and old."
Gu Ke: "Sir, let's go and see the excitement."
"Just to my liking."
Seeing that the man was Gu Yuxi, and then looking at Xiao Zhuoxuan, Gu Sanhe, who was wearing a mask, pretended not to know him. He only saw that the stall in front of them was selling various exquisite patterns.
"Guest, our products are of high quality and low price, don't miss it."
"Tattoo girl."
"guest?"
Realizing that he had seen the wrong person, Gu Ke quickly said, "Sorry, my eyes are blurry."
"gentlemen!"
"No problem."
While Xie Lize and the others were stunned, several women pushed them aside, and they saw the two men start to work again.
"Girl, let's buy some tangle flowers and silk flowers together."
"Girl, can you make this rose bracelet?"
"Yes, of course," Gu Yuxi said to the donkey behind him, "Xiaodai, come here."
"Girl, I want the gold and pink roses on the donkey's back."
"Okay, wait a moment, girl."
After seeing off a few guests, Gu Yuxi finally had a chance to catch his breath. Seeing Xiao Zhuoxuan still counting money, he felt it was difficult for him.
"Mr. Xiao, take a rest and drink some water."
The scholar standing next to him said, "Girl, we want to buy your flowers, but you have said all your good things to others. How can we get any more?"
"How can it be all said and done? Young Master, if you want to buy flowers, it will naturally make this place more beautiful."
“Isn’t it unreasonable to sell chrysanthemums?”
"Sir, it's not that I prefer chrysanthemums among all flowers, it's just that when this flower blooms, there are no other flowers left. This golden chrysanthemum silk flower is noble and matches your temperament very well."
"Then could this plum velvet flower have a deeper meaning?"
Looking at the group of scholars in front of him, Gu Yuxi also felt that this business was not easy to do. His mind raced quickly and he said with a smile: "Sir, you are a scholar. As the saying goes, those who study hard in the cold window will not be recognized, but those who pass the imperial examination will be known to the world.
The plum blossoms are proud and their fragrance comes from the bitter cold. All the hard work in studying every stroke is not in vain.
Isn't it just waiting for the first prize in a few months, or next spring or next autumn, waiting for him to smile in the bushes when the mountain flowers are in full bloom? "
Those people bowed to Gu Yuxi and said sincerely, "With your blessing, we have to buy the plum blossoms."
"I wish all the gentlemen can achieve their wish and visit the Qionglin Garden as soon as possible."
"I'll take your good words."
"Hahaha, you are a good talker, girl. I have been watching this excitement for a long time. Girl, why don't you tell me whether it is appropriate for me to sell these bamboo leaves as well?"
The others suddenly felt the atmosphere tense. Gu Yuxi then realized that the old man in old clothes and jacket in front of him was the magistrate of Pingxiang County. No wonder those people were quiet.
"Girl, you can talk as you please. I am here to take care of your business."
"Grandpa, you are so lucky to be here. I see you have a kind face and are very friendly. This bamboo is the tenacity of clinging to the green mountains. A gentleman's integrity is not just about reading the books of sages. Of course, he also needs to care about every branch and leaf like you."
The old man suddenly laughed: "Hahaha! Girl... I'll take care of this business."
The person next to her reminded her, "Girl, this is the county magistrate. What you said is very coincidental."
"What a coincidence! There is no such thing as coincidence."
Gu Yuxi suddenly bowed and said nervously, "I didn't know the county magistrate was here to visit me. If my words offended me, please forgive me."
"What crime have I committed? I am just an old man who came to join in the fun. There are no officials or masters here. Please don't be restrained."
Gu Ke reminded Xie Lize: "Your Majesty, this man is the magistrate of Pingxiang County, formerly the Minister of Guanglu Temple. He was demoted here because he petitioned the emperor to stop building Yunque Tower."
Xie Lize looked at the old man in ragged clothes and boots, shook his head and said, "That man only cares about eating, drinking and having fun. Such a good official who cares about every little thing can only bear it."
"Your Majesty, you are very practical in applying what you have learned."
"If a woman understands this, my cousin certainly understands it better."
"The princess is right."
Xie Yunhuan said coquettishly: "Cousin, I want that girl to be my maid, and I like that donkey too."
"Huan'er, we won't do such absurd things as forcing women, don't embarrass yourself."
Gu Yuxi saw that most of the flowers on Xiaodai's body had been taken off, so he took out the remaining ones. This flower donkey is a mascot.
"Give!"
Looking at the three carrots on the ground, the donkey's eyes lit up, wagged its tail, and jumped up excitedly.
"Miss Gu, where is Xiaodai?"
"It's okay, just excited."
There were fewer people, so Xie Lize and others went over again. He saw that the woman was no different from any other woman in the mountains, but his eyes unconsciously fell on her.
"Sir, would you like to buy some velvet flowers? These are all we have. If you don't buy now, they will be sold out."
"Wrap them all up!"
"what!"
Ye Qi placed five taels of silver in front of the stall, and Gu Yuxi immediately said cheerfully, "Whatever bracelet your noble lord wants, I will make it right away."
