Nongmen's charming girl has a medicine field

Chapter 116 Something is wrong
Ding Haoxiang didn't know what Wu Xue was thinking, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

Without the grace of saving his life, Ding Haoxiang saw Hu Xue as an ordinary stranger.

If it wasn't for the cardamom house wanting to have a double insurance this time, Ding Haoxiang's perception of Hu Xue might just be a little more beautiful, with a bit of momentum, not like a country woman.

In this regard, Hu Xue is not even comparable to Xie Daoyun.

In Ding Haoxiang's opinion, Xie Daoyun at least has a good temperament, but he is much more imposing than Hu Xue in dealing with people.

A girl like Xie Daoyun doesn't look like a country woman to Ding Haoxiang at all, but looks like a rich lady, or even the kind raised by a wealthy family. kind of.

When the magistrate's wife came, Ding Haoxiang naturally came out to greet him along with other people.

There are many noble ladies beside them. These are the wives of officials and officials in Xiushui County.

It can be said that this group of women here are the inner controllers of officials of all sizes in Xiushui County.

This is exactly the group of people that Xiulou deals with. Are you counting on the group of officials to come to Xiulou to buy things?

Of course, the officials may also be willing to go to the Xiulou to buy all kinds of embroidery to please their dear concubines, but the big business must still be in the hands of the big ladies like Zi.

"Oh, is the little marquis here too?" Madam Zhifu's eyes lit up and she greeted her.

The magistrate is already an official of the fourth rank, belonging to the emperor of a certain place.

The geographical distribution of the Dajing Dynasty was based on counties. The Dajing Dynasty had a total of more than [-] counties, plus several independent Zhili prefectures.

The highest official in Zhili Prefecture is the Zhizhou, which is at the same level as the highest official in the county.

Of course, according to the differences in Zhili prefectures, for example, in several Zhili prefectures near the capital, the prefects are faintly higher than the prefects by half.

But in any case, the magistrate is also the highest officer of Xiushui County.

In the land of Xiushui County, there is no one bigger than the magistrate, and all aristocratic families have to give three points to the magistrate.

However, the official rank of the magistrate is indeed not small, but it is only in the local area, when it comes to the capital.
The fourth grade is not considered a high position or weight.

There is a huge gap between the fourth grade and the third grade. If you can't make achievements, you probably won't be able to get promoted.

According to the normal rate of promotion, if the magistrate made achievements in a certain place and accumulated meritorious service and was promoted to the imperial court, he would be moved to the sixth department as a servant.

The assistant minister is an official of the third rank, assisting the Minister of the Ministry to manage the six ministries.

The magistrate's wife naturally knew the identity of this Ding Haoxiang.

Although the concubine of the Hou Mansion said that he had no chance to inherit the Marquis and could not be the heir, there was a contingency in this kind of thing. Anyway, he was born in the Hou Mansion, so he still had to save face.

Although the Hou Mansion didn't like this quality very much, but if they slapped this bastard in the face, I'm afraid the Hou Mansion would not give up.

No matter how hard the own concubine is not motivated, he will not be able to get ahead, and he will not be bullied by outsiders.

"Now that you're here, let's go and have a look at these embroidery products. I took a quick look at them when I first came here. This time, the embroidery products produced by the major embroidery houses are very good. I'm looking at the development of the embroidery industry here. It’s really good, it’s quite effective.”

As a local prefect, if you want to be promoted, you must make achievements. The prefect of Xiushui County wants to build an embroidery industry here, and it seems to be quite effective now.

"Madam, please first."

A group of people stretched out their hands to let the magistrate's wife take a step ahead, and they followed beside them, looking at the shows one after another. These were all for viewing, and the ones that were really used for the competition were still covered up.

"This dress is very nice, and the butterfly picking honey looks really lifelike."

"This one is also very good. When the red lotus comes out of the water, I feel like a dragonfly will fly over and land on the lotus leaf."

"The stitching of this embroidery is very good, and the overall level looks much better than last year."

Yes, "Ah, it's all thanks to the magistrate. If it weren't for the magistrate's advocacy, we really haven't developed embroidery here. It can't compare with those barbarians in the south."

The textile and embroidery industry has always been more developed in the south.

The embroidery and textile industry in the north has always been inferior to that in the south.

There are also great cultural differences between the north and the south. People in the south always point out that the people in the north are scumbags.

Northerners are not to be outdone and laugh at Southerners in many ways.

The southerners call the northerners 徉子, and the northerners call the south a savage, which is a kind of regional discrimination language.

The magistrate's wife did not answer this sentence, although she might agree in her heart, she is also from the north.

In the past, I met officials from the south in the capital, and I was secretly called a jerk, and I must have felt aggrieved, but this kind of thing was only in secret, and no one dared to say it on the stage.

"Okay, let's continue to watch. This year's Embroidery Exhibition is indeed much better than before. It seems that the development of our various industries has indeed given us a lot of inspiration. In the future, we will also strive to bring embroidery Sell ​​it to the south."

When Madam Zhifu said this, everyone naturally changed the topic in response, and praised this embroidery exhibition one after another, and the shopkeepers of the embroidery buildings burst into smiles.

"What do you think, Young Master? The embroidery in Xiushui County may not be as good as that in the south, but it also has the demeanor of a master."

In fact, Ding Haoxiang also faintly admired the embroiderers here. The quality of these embroidery products is indeed very good, and several pairs are close to the master level.

Speaking of which, there are indeed quite a few good works in this embroidery exhibition, fortunately he also has two in hand.

The one by Hu Xue is a little lower, but it is close to the level of a master.

I have to say that Hu Xue's first test of the water is commendable, but this woman's ambition is not small, and it seems that the cardamom building may not be able to stay.

Ding Haoxiang also found something in his heart, Hu Xue's purpose seems not pure, but for the time being, Hu Xue is still useful to him.

Ding Haoxiang didn't pursue Hu Xue's purpose. After all, Hu Xue was just an ordinary peasant girl to him, so what could affect him?

"Madam's vision is naturally good. Madam has praised them all. The embroiderers in the embroidery building are naturally the best. I am very jealous of these embroidery products. I wish I could buy them all."

Buying something is naturally an excuse. What does he need so much embroidery for?
My family owns an embroidery building, so it's useless to ask for these embroidery products.

It's just a sedan chair to carry people, and the magistrate's wife needs a reputation. What is the purpose of these embroidery exhibitions held by the magistrate's wife? Isn't it for the prefect's official reputation, future political achievements and the evaluation of the official department?

Do these have any economic disputes or interests with him?

Ding Haoxiang was naturally full of good words, but at this time Hu Xue was surprised and said: "Something is wrong, these embroidery..."
