Farming at the beginning, I rely on business to counterattack and become a princess

Chapter 38 Tea Party Competition
When we arrived at Mrs. Zhao, the owner of the department store, I gave two small pieces of storax as a custom. Although the spices are expensive, but everyone likes incense very much, and the two pieces of storax prepared by Mrs. Zhao are better than small, which is very popular with the two officials. Madame's delight.

Finally it was Mrs. Si Tusun's turn. She had already prepared a toothpaste basket. She originally wanted to deliver it to Fucheng herself, but now it was just right to give it to Mrs. Zhang, the same prefect.

Mrs. Situsun presented the gift and said modestly: "My gift is not as elegant as everyone else's. I just think it is more novel and necessary for daily life, so I don't care about making jokes, so I ask Madam to try it."

"Oh, it's a toothpaste basket!" A little lady cried out, thinking: Damn it, why can't I buy it.

"So it's called a toothpaste basket. Mrs. Gu asked me to use it yesterday. It's a good thing." Zhang Zhou said with a smile.

"Ah!" Si Tusun's wife felt lost all of a sudden, she thought she could get the first prize from Tongzhi's wife, but who would have thought that the county magistrate's wife would take the lead first, it's hateful, if I knew it, I wouldn't have given it to her first.

"This toothpaste basket was originally given to me by Mrs. Sun. I used it very well, so I bought two more. It's a gift to Buddha." Gu Zhushi pursed her lips and smiled.

Seeing that Mrs. Sun was so disappointed, Mrs. Tongzhi Zhang Zhou ordered the girl to accept the gift, and said: "Thank you, I like this gift very much."

Mrs. Si Tusun, who was recognized, was happy again, and hurriedly said that she didn't dare to do it.

"Speaking of this toothpaste basket, I also like it very much, but my bottle has been opened and used, and I can't buy it again. Otherwise, I want to show it to my wife." A woman sighed.

"That's right, Mrs. Zhao, when will your toothpaste basket arrive?" A woman simply asked the wife of the owner of the department store on the spot.

"How many times have I already reserved?" A woman also laughed.

Hearing everyone's questions, Mrs. Zhao, the owner of the department store, showed suspicion, embarrassment, and confusion: I don't know what the hell toothpaste basket is.

However, the boss couldn't help but know about his own goods, so he immediately put on a calm look on his face: "It's almost here, everyone, don't worry, I will let you know when the time comes."

Although some people have never used this Laoshizi toothpaste basket, it does not prevent her from pretending to know everything. For example, Wang Sushi, the second wife of a fallen official family, asked, "Speaking of which, where is this toothpaste basket?" Imported goods? Why are there so few?"

The heart of Mrs. Zhao, the owner of the department store: Do I know a ghost?But he still smiled and said: "It's a novelty after all, you have to try it out first."

Seeing everyone go to flatter Mrs. Zhao in the department store, Zhang Qinshi, the landlord and rich family, is not happy. Her gift has not been delivered yet. She has put a lot of thought into this gift, and it will definitely make this group of pretending women feel happy. The man was taken aback, so he hurriedly ordered the girl to carry it up.

Seeing the two big baskets brought up by Zhang Qinshi, everyone was at a loss: what are such big baskets?Could it be cloth?That's really laughable.

Zhang Qinshi stepped forward with a complacent face, and said boldly: "Oh, it's my turn. I have earned these two things through untold hardships. It is just the right occasion to give them to the two ladies for appreciation today. Keep them for everyone. Surprised."

"Hehe!" This is the truest reflection of the hearts of the ladies.

At this time, a girl stepped forward to take down the basket, and as the basket was slowly raised, two pots of flowers in full bloom appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and they saw:

A cluster of green is dotted with plump and plump flowers. The rosy and pink petals unfold layer by layer in the wind, like the face of a cardamom girl in full bloom, or like a smiling and silent lady, who seems coquettish and shy, very Pink and cute, bright red and colorful.

"oops!"

"My goodness!"

"What a beautiful flower!"

Everyone's exclamation came and went, Miss Zhang Wan'er even ignored the etiquette, she got up and ran to the flowers to watch carefully.

With Zhang Wan'er taking the lead, all the women didn't care about putting on a show, and stood up to watch. Of course, the C seat must be given to Mrs. Tongzhi and Mrs. Zhixian.

In the past, the flowers were clustered together from a distance, but now when I look up close, I feel that each flower is blooming so vigorously and vigorously, and there is a faint fragrance coming with the wind, which makes people feel refreshed.

"Hi Zhang Qin, where did you get such beautiful flowers, if it weren't for today's tea party, we wouldn't be able to see them." Gu Zhushi, the magistrate's wife, joked.

"What kind of flower is this?" It was a curious voice.

"Why does it open so brightly!" This is the voice of envy.

"I really want to pick one." It was a jealous voice.

Standing in the middle of everyone's envious, jealous and hateful eyes, Zhang Qinshi smiled smugly and smugly. He has participated in so many tea parties, which time he was not despised!Which time is not ridiculed!Today I am finally proud, so that you can know that I, Mrs. Zhang Qin, is also a very elegant and interesting person, hum!
"What kind of flower is this?" Tong Zhi's wife Zhang Zhou asked in person.

Mrs. Tongzhi had to answer the question, Zhang Qin immediately smiled and said: "This flower is raised by my daughter, I will ask her to explain it to Madam herself."

As a result, the pretty little lady beside Zhang Qinshi suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention.

The little lady, who had been feeling uncomfortable since the beginning of the tea party, was finally comfortable now, so she began to explain triumphantly:
"Returning to Madam, the name of this flower is peony. I got it from the mountain. It bloomed beautifully before, even more beautiful than now. The color of the flower is also yellow."

"It's just that the flower withered for some reason, and I almost forgot about it." The little lady frowned in doubt, and said happily again: "But later, it bloomed again, and it also bloomed different flowers. "

After hearing the nonsense, everyone was speechless. If you say that you are pretending to be elegant, you just pretend to be the end, what's the matter if you turn off the ignition halfway.

If Wen Xiang was here, then she would recognize this pretty little lady as the Zhang family thug who robbed the peony flower before—Miss Zhang San.

If Wen Xiang is here, maybe she can recognize that the blooming flower is not a peony, but a camellia.

Although the camellia is also extremely beautiful, it is still a little less moral than "whoever is the master of the spring in spring, and the leader of the flowers is the peony".

As for why the peony turned into a camellia?For those who know nothing, this can only be said to be a miracle, so what mystery is hidden in it?

In fact, Ms. Zhang San was only responsible for snatching the peony flowers. As for the follow-up planting and maintenance of flowers, all the work of planting and maintaining flowers was left to the servants at home, so she was considered a half-ignorant person.

Smell is different. As an incense worker, in addition to being familiar with various spices and production skills, in order to better make aromatherapy and spices, she is also good at identifying various famous flowers and herbs, and understands and masters certain Knowledge of flower care.
