Chapter 44 Finals
Fang Xiu Niang did not participate in this competition. Shopkeeper Peng brought her here not only to give Zhou Ran a companion, but also to give Fang Xiu Niang a chance to see the embroidery skills of other embroidery girls.

Zhou Ran and Fang Xiuniang came to the dining room, where Shopkeeper Peng and Shopkeeper Han from Linglong Embroidery Workshop in Fucheng were already waiting there.

Seeing Zhou Ran, the two of them greeted warmly, "Mrs. Zhou, you're up. How did you sleep last night?"

Zhou Ran nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you, shopkeeper Han, for thinking about me. I slept well."

"That's good, Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Fang, sit down quickly and I'll have the food brought up." Shopkeeper Han asked the two of them to sit down and then ordered the boy to bring the food up.

Zhou Ran glanced at the two boys and found that the boy who stopped him last night was not among them, so he asked curiously: "Shopkeeper Han, wasn't there another boy last night? I think he is quite smart. Why are you missing today?"

When Shopkeeper Han heard what Zhou Ran said, he shook his head and said with joy and a little disgust: "I didn't expect that boy to get Madam Zhou's attention. Unfortunately, that boy was unlucky. He broke his leg when he went out this morning. I can’t continue to lose face in front of Mrs. Zhou.”

I broke my leg. How could it be such a coincidence? Are you afraid that you will expose what he did yesterday?

Zhou Ran was indeed planning to tell Shopkeeper Han about this, but Shopkeeper Han's attitude when talking about the young boy was a bit wrong. She was silent and swallowed what she was about to say.

When the food was served, shopkeeper Han asked Zhou Ran and others to use their chopsticks.

Zhou Ran was still a little uneasy in her heart. She picked up the chopsticks, thought about it, put the chopsticks back, and said to Shopkeeper Han with some embarrassment: "I don't seem to have an appetite. Shopkeeper Han, you can eat first while I go out for a walk. "After saying that, Zhou Ran got up and walked out.

Seeing this, shopkeeper Peng also hurriedly got up and followed, "Ms. Zhou, you are not familiar with Fucheng, so I'd better accompany you."

As soon as Zhou Ran and Shopkeeper Peng left, Mrs. Fang couldn't sit still any longer, so she got up and left. Suddenly, only Shopkeeper Han was left on the table.

One of the two young men was unhappy when he saw this and said: "The people from Linglong Embroidery Shop in Nanxing County don't think much of you, the shopkeeper, do they?"

Shopkeeper Han shook his head nonchalantly and said nonchalantly: "Who lets people have the ability? You have to remember that people with ability always have some privileges."

Zhou Ran and the others left the yard where they lived and found a wonton stall accompanied by shopkeeper Peng. The three of them simply ate a bowl of wontons and then went back to where they were preparing to go to the competition.

When the time was up, fifteen embroiderers came on stage at the same time and sat down in front of the embroidery frame.

The gongs and drums sounded, and the prefect announced the content of today's competition: there are no restrictions on stitching techniques or patterns. All embroiderers will use their own experience to complete a flower-themed embroidery within the specified time.

After hearing the request, the embroiderer from Jinhua Embroidery Shop glanced at Zhou Ran provocatively. Zhou Ran noticed her gaze and just raised her head to glance at her, then lowered her head and continued to ponder the composition.

I heard that the embroiderer invited by Jinhua Embroidery Shop this time can do double-sided embroidery. If she doesn't want to lose, she must use double-sided embroidery herself.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Ran decided to embroider a picture of butterflies playing with peonies.

As soon as the game started, the owner of Jinhua Embroidery Shop, who was sitting in the stands, looked at Zhou Ran frequently. Seeing that Zhou Ran had been sitting there focusing on the needlework in his hand, and there was nothing wrong, the owner of Jinhua Embroidery Shop couldn't help but become a little anxious. , he cast his questioning gaze towards Shopkeeper Ren in the distance.

Shopkeeper Ren nodded towards him, turned and left.

More than two-quarters of an hour later, shopkeeper Ren came back and shook his head at the owner of Jinhua Embroidery Square with a somewhat ugly face, indicating that he had not succeeded. The owner of Jinhua Embroidery Shop was very angry, but at this time he had no other choice but to place his hope in the embroidery lady he had found, hoping that she could defeat Zhou Ran with her own strength.

Zhou Ran didn't notice the actions of the boss of Jinhua Embroidery Shop and Shopkeeper Ren, but Boss Qian did. He frowned and looked at the boss of Jinhua Embroidery Shop, wondering what bad things they had done, but looking at him The look on his face must mean that he didn't succeed, right?
On the stage, all the embroiderers were immersed in embroidery.

Zhou Ran's entire embroidery requires the use of needle wrapping, snatching needles, trocaring needles, etc.

The peony petals are embroidered with sharp needles. The petals have clear layers and even colors. The flowers and leaves are embroidered with flat needles. The dark green and light green are so natural that they almost look real.

When embroidering butterflies, Zhou Ran hesitated and finally used double-sided embroidery with different colors.

She had only practiced double-sided heterochromatic embroidery for a short period of time a year ago, and could not do it very fast. She completed the last stitch just before the gongs and drums sounded, and at this time, the embroidery in Jinhua Embroidery Workshop My mother has already finished her embroidery.

When the visitors collected all the embroidery items and the embroiderers stood up and left the stage, the embroiderer from Jinhua Embroidery Workshop walked up to Zhou Ran and said in a low voice: "You can't beat me today."

"Oh." Zhou Ran responded lightly, and passed the embroiderer in Jinhua embroidery workshop and left first.

Zhou Ran's attitude made the embroiderer of Jinhua Embroidery Shop furious. She looked at Zhou Ran's back bitterly and thought to herself: If you are so proud, you will cry when the results come out.

And here, the prefect and the owners of several embroidery workshops in Fucheng were watching Zhou Ran and the embroiderer from Jinhua Embroidery Workshop discussing their embroidery work. It was a coincidence that both of them were embroidering pictures of butterflies and peonies.

The owner of Ruyi Embroidery Shop said: "I think today's first place should go to the embroiderer of Jinhua Embroidery Shop. Although both embroiderers are doing double-sided embroidery, this embroidery by the embroiderer of Jinhua Embroidery Shop The fineness and density of the work are better than those of the embroiderers from Linglong Embroidery Studio."

The owner of Linglong Embroidery Studio shook his head and said: "I think the first place should go to the embroiderer of Linglong Embroidery Studio. Although her embroidery is slightly inferior in detail and density, the whole embroidery has smooth silk texture and easy transitions. The colors are harmonious, the shades are moderate, and the color is even brighter. It is obviously better than the embroiderers of Jinhua Embroidery Workshop in terms of smoothness, harmony, and brightness."

"But the embroiderer from Jinhua Embroidery Workshop..."

Before the owner of Ruyi Embroidery Workshop finished his argument, he was interrupted by the prefect, "Okay, stop arguing. The embroiderer from Linglong Embroidery Workshop is truly the first in this competition."

"Master Magistrate, this..." The owner of Jinhua Embroidery Square was a little dissatisfied with this result.

The magistrate glanced at him and handed Zhou Ran's embroidery to him, "Take a closer look at this butterfly."

The owner of Jinhua Embroidery Shop was reminded by the prefect that he discovered that the butterflies on both sides were actually different colors.

"Do you have any other opinions?" the prefect asked.

The owner of Jinhua Embroidery Square smiled and shook his head, "Sure enough, the prefect is still very discerning, and the young man is convinced and has no objections."

After the rankings were decided, Zhou Ran already knew the results from the feedback on the completion of the system task before the prefect came forward to announce the results.
