Chapter 43 Begging
Next, Li Sanzhu went to the brick kiln workshop in the town to order blue bricks and tiles. After agreeing on the date, he went to the master craftsman who built the house to agree on the details. .

Seeing that Li Sanzhu started to build the house step by step, Li Qiusui let go and didn't worry about it.After lunch, he and Zheng Ying got into two carriages one after the other, and returned to Zheng's house the same way.

……

……

In Zheng's house in Fucheng, Zheng Yuan and sisters woke up from a nap at noon, and stayed in Mrs. Zheng's room, refusing to leave.

There is a pot of orchids on the desk beside the window lattice, which is the one that Li Qiusui gave to Zheng Ying.It stands to reason that the orchid is placed in Zheng Ying's study, and Qing Yun is in charge of taking care of it. Why did it get to Mrs. Zheng's room?
This starts from the day after they left.

Zheng Yuan had nothing to do, so she went to Zheng Ying's study to find a book to pass the time. As soon as she saw the potted orchid, she was attracted by its elegant appearance.When I met Zheng Yan, I told her to listen.Zheng Yan didn't stop her temper, she was about to run over to have a look, and finally Hua moved to Mrs. Zheng's room.

Madam Zheng sent a letter yesterday telling them to go home today, Zheng Yan also knew about this.With the idea of ​​not returning the orchid in his heart, he began to pester her mother since yesterday.

"Have you finished the homework assigned by Mr. Today?" Mrs. Zheng asked Zheng Yan.

Zheng Yan chuckled, "Didn't Brother Ying and Sui Sui go home today! I'll be here waiting for them."

When the two of them return home, they must come to their mother first. She will be able to wait for someone here, and she even made a grand excuse, "Song Lin came to the house to express his gratitude. I don't know about this at all! When I see someone, I can entrust her to you." said."

Mrs. Zheng couldn't see Zheng Yan's plan, "Don't hold back at all! You should return the orchid first, and apologize to brother Ying. Well, it's still early for them to get home, so go back with my sister and finish the homework. "

Mrs. Zheng dotes on her daughter, but she will not let her mess around.You can't just take things for yourself if you look at your own family's things.

Zheng Yan was still reluctant to move.

Mrs. Zheng had no choice but to say, "If I arrive earlier, I will only catch you. Didn't Qingyun say that there are still orchids in Suisui, you go and discuss with her to see if I can share it with you."

Qingyun told about the fact that Li Qiusui asked Qingheng to go out of the house to sell orchids, and of course he also said about the orchids in the back room.

Selling orchids is not shameful, and Li Qiusui didn't ask anyone to keep it a secret for her.She wasn't at Zheng's house, it was inconvenient for Zheng Yuan and Zheng Yan to rush to see her.

"Mother, help me talk to Brother Ying." Zheng Yan still didn't want to give up Zheng Ying's pot.

Mrs. Zheng's face darkened, "Sister Yan, you should know what to do and what not to do! It belongs to my brother, and as a sister, you can ask for it."

Brother Ying can naturally refuse.

Zheng Yan stuck out her tongue, of course she understood the reasoning, and she had no intention of forcing her to stay, she just wanted her mother to help her say something.But Qingyun said that the quality of the remaining orchids at Suisui is not as good as Brother Ying's pot.At the last poetry meeting, the ink chrysanthemum that Miss Gong Jialiu cultivated by herself stole the limelight!Gong Liu has never dealt with himself. A few days later, at the poetry meeting, I heard that Gong Liu has cultivated another pot of peonies.When she saw this pot of orchids, she didn't want to grab it by force, but borrowed it to make the mighty Gong Liu feel deflated.

Zheng Yuan went in and out with her younger sister, so she naturally knew that she and Gong Liu didn't get along.

……

……

Li Qiusui has already walked more than half of the way here.

I was bored on the way, so I opened the purse that Liu Shi had stuffed for her.

It was the one given by Zheng Ying.

Looking at the past, the golden peanut and silver dumplings inside have not been touched.She knew that the family used the money inside, and it must have been added later.

Back at Zheng's house, go to Mrs. Zheng's yard first.

Li Qiusui followed Zheng Ying and saluted Mrs. Zheng, calling her "aunt".

Zheng Ying called Liu's aunt one by one, but her mother was smiling all day long!He almost didn't regard him as his own son.

It's time to learn from others.

Mrs. Zheng smiled and narrowed her eyes when she saw her son's high-spirited appearance.

Pulling the two to sit down, he first asked Li Qiusui, "Sui Sui, how is everyone at home? Did brother Ying call your mother and aunt? Can he please your mother?"

Li Qiusui nodded, "All good! My cousin is humble and polite, and my parents are full of praise all day long."

Let's just call him Cousin Zheng Ying!
"That's good. He deserves to be like this. How could he be that good? Your mother praised him..."

Mrs. Zheng and Li Qiusui were chatting lively. Zheng Ying sat on the other side, serving the tea made by the servant girl, and used the movement of drinking tea to cover up the twitching corners of her mouth.

Madam Zheng finally said some useful words, "Sui Sui will take a day off tomorrow, and then go to school with Sister Yuan and Sister Yan the day after tomorrow!"

Li Qiusui nodded, and Zheng Yuan and sisters entered the room before they had time to speak.

Li Qiusui stood up, and without waiting for her to salute, Zheng Yan trotted forward, holding her hand and shaking, "Sui Sui, you can grow such a good orchid, why didn't you say a word! You don't know that Gong Liu understood How proud of a little way of growing flowers! Every poetry meeting shows her ability, last time Mo Ju, this time I heard that she will show peony again, but her ability is broken!"

Li Qiusui couldn't understand the crackling words.

Zheng Yuan, who had just walked up to the front, explained, "Gong Liu is the sixth miss of the Gong family. She is very famous among the young ladies in Yinzhou City for her unique flower-growing skills. She is about the same age as Sister Yan. Sister Yan is still here When they were younger, the two of them didn't like each other. The pot of orchids you gave Brother Ying has obvious flower and leaf art, and it's a rare gem. Sister Yan borrowed it to take care of Miss Gong's prestige."

Zheng Yan rolled her eyes, "Sui Sui, why don't you go to the poetry meeting with us, and let those who don't know it see who is the real flower grower."

Poetry Club, as the name suggests, is for writing poems.

Li Qiusui waved his hands again and again, "No, I don't know how to write poetry."

She really doesn't have that much talent.Planting flowers, growing vegetables, and cultivating supernatural powers along the way, writing poems is not worth eating, not drinking, and not suffering that crime.

Zheng Yan just laughed, "I don't know how to write poetry either! We are destined to be good sisters."

She just can't write poetry, that's why she and Gong Liu became enemies.Gong Liu raised top-quality flowers for everyone to watch, and wrote a poem to praise them by the way.Every time she goes back, she treats herself as an outsider, with a handful of melon seeds and a cup of clear tea, watching everyone compete for beauty with a smile.She didn't bother anyone like this, but Gong Liu couldn't see it.

The flowers planted by others, the poems are also brilliant.

Let you sit here and watch the fun!What do you mean?
Li Qiusui rolled his eyes.Then you still go to poetry fairs, people go there to show themselves, co-authoring you is just playing soy sauce, just to join in the fun.

"Being a good sister is a thing."

Let's accompany you to embarrass yourself, forget it!
