Chapter 99 Reaching a Consensus
She still underestimated the attraction of official career to him.

Lady Fan followed her gaze, only saw a figure in a hurry, and stopped talking.

The candidates have all entered the venue, and there are still family members who are unwilling to leave. It is not the busiest moment, it is only when the rankings are released. Su Nanzhen looks away, finishes eating in twos and threes, and then plans to buy those things.

She didn't have much money, but she planned to spend more than half of it to buy rice, oil, salt and other things, and she had to store grain for the winter, and the price of grain would double again in this cold winter.

She didn't have a lot of money in her hand, and she didn't need to hide it when buying rice. Even so, Mrs. Fan and the others were still very surprised, thinking that she was too daring to spend money.

The little money they had saved was all given to Fan Huaning. Right now, they were reluctant to buy anything, and they were even ashamed to look at it.

Su Nanzhen didn't say anything, but hoped that they could get over their hardships as soon as possible.

After the things were bought, Su Nanzhen gave orders to go home.

When Madam Su saw that she had bought so much rice again, she felt a little distressed about the money. Last year's rice was only finished in the spring of this year. She was addicted to grain.

"I've spent all the money? Here, what are you going to do in the future?" Madam Su looked at her unconceived belly, worried about her belly, and also worried about the future. Seeing that she still wanted to resist rice, she hurriedly stopped her.

Mu Furong took the bag in her hand, one bag in each hand, and carried it back to the cottage with ease.

Fan Niangzi and Fan Jiaomei helped with other things, and when they put away their things, the rice was moved into the thatched cottage.

The lady Duan who was passing by saw them carrying things in big and small bags, she pouted sourly, thinking that when her son won the prize of Juren, there was no need to buy those things by herself, others would deliver them to her door.

Thinking in this way, she felt calm, pretending to be arrogant, with contempt in her eyes.

Seeing her like that, Mrs. Su felt unlucky. Fortunately, although they lived close to each other, they didn't see each other every day.

"Mother, don't worry about her, let's see if she can still be proud in a few days." Su Nanzhen glanced at Lady Duan's back and snorted coldly. She didn't believe that Duan Silang could still go to high school.

Su Niangzi pulled Su Nanzhen's hand, and someone came.

At this time someone came, Su Nanzhen was a little surprised, she had seen the person who came, it was Steward Qiu, and there were three bullock carts behind him.

The two of them had some politeness, and Steward Qiu explained the purpose of coming, and wanted her to help take care of a batch of calendula.

Calendula is used to make dyes. I tried the earliest flowers, but the results were not satisfactory. Thinking that she is good at taking care of flowers and plants, I came to her with the mentality of giving it a try.

He bought the flowers back from other places, perhaps because he didn’t take good care of them on the way, and after a few days of raising them at Guo’s house, there was still no improvement. Seeing that the day of delivery was approaching, the flowers were still wilting and didn’t appear to be blooming. , they couldn't wait to think of her.

"No problem, leave it to me, but these flowers are not like other things, and I can't guarantee that they will bloom as scheduled. Let's do my best." Su Nanzhen thought about it, and said the ugly words first.

"Yes, yes, what the lady said is true." Butler Qiu naturally inquired about it, and only took her as a courtesy, paid the deposit in advance, and brought the paperwork.

"Do you often use this flower as a dye?" Su Nanzhen looked at the calendula, and she was a little confident when she saw that the problem was not serious.

But what she is curious about is whether they will often use calendula as dyes. If so, she will consider planting more calendula, not just calendula, she will consider planting more if they can be used as dyes.

After all, whether other flowers can be sold or not depends on how good they are, but dyes are different. If someone wants them, they will be sold in batches.

Although the price may not be as attractive as the expensive flowers, but the quantity is large, and the total price is quite considerable. Her place is large, and the flowers are planted in batches to look good.

Su Nanzhen looked at Steward Qiu, but didn't hide her small thoughts.

Steward Qiu is a smart person. Those who use the dyes told her everything. After all, it is a good thing for multiple people to grow the dyes they need, and maybe the price can be lowered.

Moreover, Su Nanzhen grows flowers better than ordinary people, which is also of great benefit to the dyeing workshop.

The two generally reached a certain consensus, and Steward Qiu also promised to bring her some calendula, gardenia and safflower seeds. If she can plant these well, he doesn't have to go out to buy them. It will be much more convenient.

"Then thank Steward Qiu." Su Nanzhen was overjoyed, the land that had just been sorted out happened to be used for planting flowers, so she quickly paid him fifty Wen as a deposit.

The seeds of those flowers are not available for sale in the market. It doesn't matter that she can't buy them even if she wants to. It's rare that he is willing to help buy some back. Su Nanzhen said the number, but there is no way. Plant more.

"Enough is enough, it's on Qiu." Steward Qiu said with a smile, they are all cooperative merchants, and he said that he can ask for seeds without spending money.

After all the flowers were moved, Steward Qiu looked at the neatly arranged marigolds, smiled with satisfaction, and made an appointment to come back in five days, but if the flowering period was early, he could send someone to send him a message.

"Definitely." Su Nanzhen politely sent him away.

It's getting dark, and the calendulas have been checked one by one. There is a lot of water in the flower pots, and she didn't plan to do anything else, just leave it there, and come back tomorrow to see what's going on, just told Mu Furong to look at these flower.

Early the next morning, Su Nanzhen asked Mu Furong and Fan Jiaomei to help them move the flowers to the hillside. Calendula likes sunny places.

Now the autumn is bright and crisp, and there is no need to water too much when it is about to bloom. She has no intention of watering the flowers today. The chrysanthemums she planted figured out something.

The leaves are still a little yellow, but it's just a simple yellow. It shouldn't be pests. Su Nanzhen thought about it, and after they placed the flowers, they asked them to add a little fertilizer to the flower pots.

The fertilizer is piled up by her with vegetable leaves and peels, etc. It works well as a fertilizer, but she doesn't know whether the fertilizer is suitable for calendula, so she can only watch it a little bit, and add a little more if the situation improves Until the calendula grows well.

A few of them, including Xichun, worked hard for a long time before finishing the work.

"That's it?" Mrs. Su asked her, "Don't you need to water it?"

"No, chrysanthemums are drought-tolerant." Su Nanzhen still shook her head, "Let's see what happens first."

"Okay then, I'll listen to you." Su Niangzi clapped her hands.

"A guest is here." Lady Fan reminded quickly when she saw a carriage parked at the foot of the mountain.

"Here we come." Su Nanzhen put down the flower pot in his hand, and responded, looking at the flowers with some uneasiness, and asked Fan Jiaomei to watch here, so that Shi Lan wouldn't make trouble.

Fan Jiaomei glanced at Shi Lan who was loitering not far away, and nodded emphatically.
