Chapter 43 - Begging

Chapter 43 Begging

Next, Li Sanzhu went to the brick kiln workshop in the town to order bricks and tiles, agreed on the date, and then met with the master craftsman who built the house to discuss the details. If nothing else, he should be at home tomorrow to help build the house.

.

Seeing Li Sanzhu starting to build the house step by step, Li Qiusui put down his hands and didn't worry about it anymore. After lunch, he and Zheng Ying got into two carriages one after another and returned to Zheng's house along the same route.





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

There is a pot of orchids placed on the desk next to the window lattice, which is the same pot that Li Qiu Sui gave to Zheng Ying. Logically speaking, the orchids are placed in Zheng Ying's study, and Qingyun is responsible for taking care of them. How did they end up in 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 kill time. When she saw the pot of orchids, she was attracted by the elegant flowers. She met Zheng Yan and told her to listen. Zheng Yan was not going to calm down and was about to run away.

Go over and take a look. Finally, the flowers moved to Mrs. Zheng's house.

Yesterday, Mrs. Zheng sent a message asking them to return home today, and Zheng Yan also knew about it. She had the intention of not returning the orchids, and she had been pestering her mother since yesterday.

"Have you completed all the homework assigned by Mr. Zheng today?" Mrs. Zheng asked Zheng Yan.

Zheng Yan chuckled, "Didn't I say that Brother Ying and Sui Sui will go home today? I'll wait for them at your place."

When the two of them returned home, they would definitely come to their mother first. She would definitely be waiting for someone here. She also made a high-sounding excuse, "Song Lin came to the house to express his gratitude. I still don't know about this! When I meet someone, I can give my instructions."

Said."

Mrs. Zheng could still see Zheng Yan's plan, "I can't calm down at all! Please return the orchids first and apologize to Brother Ying. Okay, they are still early when they get home. Let's go back with my sister and finish their homework.

"

Mrs. Zheng doted on her daughter, but she would not let her run wild. If she liked the things belonging to her family, she would not take them for herself.

Zheng Yan was still reluctant to move.

Mrs. Zheng had no choice but to say, "If we arrive early, I will meet someone who will only care for you. Didn't Qingyun say there are orchids there at Suisui? You go and discuss with her to see if you can share a pot with her."

Qingyun told Li Qiusui that he asked Qingheng to go out to sell orchids, and naturally he also told him that there were orchids in the back room.

Selling orchids was not a shameful matter, and Li Qiu Sui did not ask anyone to keep it a secret. She was not at Zheng's house, and it was not convenient for Zheng Yuan and Zheng Yan to rush to see her.

"Mom, please help me have a nice talk with 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 you should do and what you shouldn't do! Those are my brother's things. As a sister, you can ask for them."

Brother Ying can naturally refuse.

Zheng Yan stuck out her tongue. Of course she understood the truth. She had no intention of forcing her to stay. She just wanted her mother to help with a few words. But Qingyun said that the appearance of the remaining orchids in Suisui is not as good as Brother Ying's.

A pot. At the last poetry meeting, the ink chrysanthemum cultivated by the sixth lady of the Gong family stole the show! Gong Liu was not at odds with her. At the poetry meeting a few days later, she heard that Gong Liu had cultivated another pot of peonies. She

When I saw this pot of orchids, I didn't want to rob it, but I wanted to borrow it to make the arrogant Gong Liu feel frustrated.

Zheng Yuan and her sister go out together and go in together, so they naturally know that she and Gong Liu are not at odds with each other.





Li Qiusui has already walked most of the way here.

When she was bored on the way, she opened the purse that Liu gave her and looked at it.

It’s the one Zheng Ying gave me.

Taking a quick look, she saw that the gold, peanut and silver dumplings inside were intact. She knew that her family had used the money inside, and they must have added to them later.

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

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

Zheng Ying calls Mrs. Liu an aunt, but her mother is always smiling and smiling! She almost doesn't regard her as her biological son.

You should learn from others.

Mrs. Zheng looked at her son's high-spirited look and narrowed her eyes with a smile.

He asked the two of them to sit down and asked Li Qiu Sui first, "Suisui, how are your family members? Did Brother Ying call your mother aunt? Can he please your mother?"

Li Qiusui nodded, "It's all good! My cousin is humble and polite, and my parents have been praising him all day long."

Let’s just call him Cousin Zheng Ying!

"That's good. He deserves to be like this. He can't be that good. Your mother praised..."

Mrs. Zheng and Li Qiu Sui were chatting lively while Zheng Ying sat on the other side, taking the tea brewed by the maid and covering up the twitching corners of his mouth with the gesture of drinking tea.

I heard Mrs. Zheng finally say something useful, "Take a day off every day, and then go to school with Sister Yuan and Sister Yan the day after tomorrow!"

Li Qiusui nodded, and before he could speak, the two sisters Zheng Yuan entered the room.

Li Qiu Sui stood up, and before she could salute, Zheng Yan trotted closer, holding her hand and shaking her, "Sui Sui, you can raise such good orchids, why didn't you say anything! You don't know what Gong Liu knows?"

How proud she is of having a little skill in growing flowers! Every poetry gathering shows off her ability. Mo Ju from the last one, but this time she heard that peonies were going to be displayed again, but her ability was ruined!"

Li Qiu Sui was baffled by the crackling words.

Zheng Yuan, who had just walked closer, explained, "Gong Liu is the sixth lady of the Gong family. She is very famous among the girls in Yinzhou City for her skill in growing flowers. She is about the same age as Sister Yan, and Sister Yan is still there.

When they were younger, the two of them disliked each other. The pot of orchid you gave Brother Ying has obvious flower and leaf arrangements, which is a rare and rare item. Sister Yan used it to enhance Miss Gong's prestige."

Zheng Yan's eyes rolled, "Suisui, why don't you go to the poetry meeting with us and let those who are ignorant see who is the real master of flower cultivation."

Poetry Club, as the name suggests, is about composing poems.

Li Qiusui waved his hands repeatedly, "If you don't go, I can't write poetry."

She really doesn't have any great talents. She grows flowers, raises vegetables, and can also practice supernatural powers, writes poems, and doesn't eat or drink, so she doesn't suffer the consequences.

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

She only became enemies with Gong Liu because she didn't know how to write poetry. Gong Liu raised the best flowers for everyone to see and write poems to praise them. Every time she went back, she treated herself as an outsider and gave her a handful of melon seeds and a cup of tea.

, watching everyone compete with each other with a smile. She didn't bother anyone by doing this, but Gong Liu couldn't stand it.

Flowers planted by people’s own hands also make wonderful poems.

I want you to sit here and watch the fun! What do you mean?

Li Qiusui rolled his eyes. Then why don't you go to the poetry gathering? People go there just to show off themselves, and you are just there to join in the fun.

"Being good sisters is a thing."

Let's go to shame with you, forget it!
Chapter completed!
