Teases the peasant girl to be busy

Chapter 138

At the poetry meeting over there at this time, many people had already made poems, most of them were quite satisfactory, and there were no amazing lines, it was just a poem by Gu Wen.

It sparked controversy among the crowd: "What is this poem about? It looks good, but does it have anything to do with Yue?"

It turns out that Gu Wen wrote about mooncakes: "Small cakes are like chewing the moon, with crisp and yee in the middle. Savor the taste silently, and tears of lovesickness will stain the towel."

Although there is a month in it, it is not the moon, the moon cannot be eaten, and the county magistrate knew what Gu Wen wrote, so he laughed: "Gu Wen, you should explain it yourself."

Gu Wen replied with a smile: "Yes, my lord. Although my poem does not directly write about the moon, it is also related to the moon, and it is more related to the August Festival. What I wrote next is about moon cakes."

"I invite everyone to taste this mooncake today. Speaking of which, there is a story behind this mooncake! If you are interested, I can also tell you about it."

The county magistrate naturally needs to cooperate at this time. Our magistrate is very clear about what my wife and Gu Shuang are busy with, and it disrupted the rhythm.

Unexpectedly, Gu Wen sent her back again, and because of Gu Wen's ability, he had to cooperate, so Gu Wen also told the story of Chang'e flying to the moon, of course this time it was also a modified version.

And everyone was angry, because they treated their hero Houyi like that, so that Houyi and Chang'e couldn't stay together forever, and finally they could only eat moon cakes to express their lovesickness.

Gu Wen coughed twice: "Actually, look, looking at the moon now, don't you feel like you can see a woman waiting?"

At this time of the month, the moon is round, and the outline of the mountains on the moon cannot be seen clearly. It is possible to use psychological hints to let people see the patterns they want.

Sure enough, what Gu Wen said, everyone looked at the moon, as if they saw Chang'e waiting for Hou Yi on the moon, and everyone felt sad in their hearts.

Seeing that he had achieved what he wanted, Gu Wen coughed twice: "Actually, I brought mooncakes with me today, and I came here to taste the taste with everyone."

As soon as the words fell, someone brought up the mooncakes, and the mooncakes were filled with the picture of Chang'e flying to the moon. Someone couldn't help but took a bite, the taste was really good.

When Lu Ying saw this scene, she suddenly smiled and came to Gu Wu's side: "Is this the Gu's shop that is going to launch a new food?"

Gu Wu nodded: "Yes, I'll only sell it for one day tomorrow. It's good to give it away, or eat it at home. It's good to eat it at home when you watch the moon tomorrow night."

Because I didn’t make much, and there was only enough to buy tomorrow’s one day, Lu Ying smiled: “I don’t know how it’s sold? Can I order a box?”

Gu Wu shook his head: "I don't know about this, I'll take you to see my sister later, my sister decides these things!"

The appearance of moon cakes directly made those poems popular just now, and Gu Wen also became No.1, and Lu Ying became No.2. As for No.3, it was actually Gu Wu!

Seeing this scene, the county magistrate smiled: "Okay, it's getting late, since everyone has selected one, two, three, come up and receive the prize!"

Speaking of giving the prepared purse to three people at once, Gu Wen and Gu Wu were very conflicted. Wouldn’t it be great if they still participated in the banquet held by themselves and won the prize?

But this is based on their own ability, and no one said anything. The next time, the county magistrate looked at everyone: "If you don't understand what you usually study, you can ask it today."

"Let me explain it to you."

"You must know that Mr. Zhou passed the examinations in a serious manner. It is not an exaggeration to be rich in knowledge. Naturally, his knowledge is better than these students. It is rare for Gu Wen and Gu Wu to encounter such an opportunity.

Of course, he became impolite, so he directly asked himself some things he didn't understand. Seeing the fluent answer from the county magistrate, everyone was gearing up one by one.

Ready to come to ask for advice, one side is discussing learning, the other side is discussing food, and discussing Madam Mu and Madam Chen's clothes for a long time, today these two are relying on clothes.

They received the most attention, and at this time these ladies in An County also understood one thing, that is, Gu Hao is actually Mrs. Chen's apprentice, and now Mrs. Chen doesn't do much anymore.

Then it can be foreseen that after today, Gu Hao's work will be endless, and this can be said to be the unexpected surprise of this banquet!
Mrs. Chen looked at Gu Shuang suddenly: "Shuang'er, isn't it inappropriate for someone to taste one of your mooncakes? It tastes good, but what should I do if I still want to eat it?"

"Especially when watching the moon tomorrow night, it would be great to eat a few months of cakes."

Gu Shuang smiled: "Master Chen, you and I wanted to go together, so there are three boxes of mooncakes in the boxing gift I gave you! There are 12 boxes in one box, three styles, and 36 pieces, which is enough for you to eat. "

When Madam Mu heard this, she laughed immediately: "Oh, so speaking of it, this mooncake can also be used as a gift, what does it look like? Show me if it's okay?"

Gu Shuang laughed, she didn't expect Mrs. Mu to be so cooperative: "Of course it's possible, I even brought a box!"

As he said that, Gu Shuang went to take out the box. It was a simple and elegant wooden box with a peony flower in its mouth. When it was opened, there were 12 packaged mooncakes inside, each of which looked sweet and tempting.

It looks delicious, and it is really suitable for gifting. The other wives also understood at this time, this is to promote mooncakes!He couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled: "I don't know how much money such a box costs?"

Gu Shuang smiled: "20 taels a box! There are only 150 boxes in this wooden box, fifty boxes for Chang'e flying to the moon, fifty boxes for family reunion, and fifty boxes for the full moon!"

Just by listening to the name, you can tell what it means, but a smart person can recognize other things: "Then what is the other pretending?"

Gu Shuang took out another bamboo basket and said, "This kind of bamboo basket contains 12 taels of silver in a box. There are also 12 pieces in a box. There are three kinds of them. There are [-] boxes in total. The Gu's shop sells them, but they only sell them. One day tomorrow."

"After tomorrow, it is estimated that next year's August Festival will be available. After all, mooncakes are just a food that belongs to the August Festival!"

The wives of each family began to think in their hearts, and they were going to buy one, and there were not many of them.As for the price, they are still bearing the price. It is conceivable how lively Gu's and Gu's shops will be tomorrow.
