Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 741 Two Strange Flowers (4)
And these girls didn't really expect to be selected, they just wanted to get the rouge from the Chen family. In the Chen family's shop, it cost five hundred yuan a box, and they couldn't afford it. If they participated, they would get a box of rouge for the Chinese New Year. Wipe when.

"The old slave just said, Pingyang is not as open as Kyoto."

Women in Kyoto can go out on the streets, and it’s not uncommon for women to throw purses and handkerchiefs when they meet a man they like. They can also ask a matchmaker to come and propose a marriage. Not chaste, let alone throwing oneself out to participate in such a ceremony.

To sum it up, the first is that the conditions of the Chen family are very good. Every girl has a dream of flying on a branch to become a phoenix. Besides, as long as she shows her face, she can get the rouge she likes but can't afford. Everyone comes here , the result will not be announced at that time, and it is not so shameful.

"First of all, on behalf of my young master, I would like to thank all the girls for coming here, ahem, for coming here to participate in the wedding ceremony of the Chen family."

On the high platform, an old butler wearing a satin gown stood up. He was condescending and waved to the crowd watching below. There were at least a few thousand people gathered to watch the excitement. A few people are inconspicuous below.

"As we all know, our young master just won the crown this year, so the age requirement is for unmarried girls between the ages of fourteen and eighteen. They are required to have an innocent family background and be able to read and write."

Many people met the previous requirements, and the latter said that they must be literate, and many girls bowed their heads. At this time, those who can read are all scholars. Most of them have not read big characters for a lifetime, as long as they can basically count.

Think about it too, as Mrs. Chen Jiashao, how can I understand the account book butler if I am illiterate?This is already the minimum requirement, Qingli looked at Mai Dong with a smile and said, "What should I do, miss, I don't meet the requirements."

"I agree, haha."

Ji You covered her mouth, she just turned fourteen, so she was within the scope of the requirements, let's say her family background is innocent, maybe there are those kind of aunts and concubines who jump up and down in the family, and they can't be innocent.

"Girls who meet the requirements are invited to stand in front, and the servants of the house will arrange flowers for everyone."

Immediately, most of the girls backed away. Qing Li and the others were squeezed to the front without moving. The women standing in front looked shy, most of them were red and shy, looking at their clothes. Either fine cotton or satin dresses, they all seem to be from well-off families, and many of them have maids behind them.

"Miss, this is your flower."

The maid of the Chen family looked very polite, spoke softly, and had a good attitude. Qingli was about to explain that she didn't meet the requirements, and the yellow flower had already been stuffed into her hand, because she was wearing a veiled hat, so she couldn't put it on her head directly. superior.

"Haha, it smells good."

Qingli sniffed the flower under her nose, hid it in her cuff, didn't intend to wear it on her head at all, looked around, observed the expressions of the ladies around, there were too many people in front and behind, crowded into a ball, but he couldn't see Mr. Chen.

There is only one place where you can see the entire stand. Qingli raised her head and keenly saw a figure in Tsing Yi at the window on the second floor behind the high platform. She thought to herself, this kid is really lucky. Activities are no different.

"Invite the ladies wearing flowers in front to come on stage."

Ji You was wearing flowers on her head inexplicably, she blinked, looked at Qingli, pointed to the flowers on her head, and said, "I didn't say that I would participate, nor did I say that I was eligible."

"It's just a misunderstanding, Miss Ji, since you've been misunderstood, just make a mistake and go on stage for a walk."

Nanny Yu was feeling bored, so she went up for a walk, and even if it was over, how could Mr. Chen be able to see people's faces clearly like this?It's still too sloppy. If you don't get in close contact with her, what can you know? What if that woman has buck teeth or body odor?

"But……"

Ji You was hesitating, but Housekeeper Chen spoke again. In order to avoid the girls being shy, everyone can bring one person to the stage. Anyway, if they don't meet the requirements and have no yellow flowers, it's easy to tell the difference.

"Oh, Miss Ji, look at how many women are still moaning because they are not of the right age. If the old servant is also young, he will go on stage for a while."

Nanny Yu's small eyes were shining brightly, and she was advocating vigorously. In front of her, there were already many girls wearing yellow flowers queuing up to the high platform. Ji You couldn't tolerate hesitation. Anyway, no one recognized her when she grew up in a deep boudoir, so it was just for entertainment. She stomped her feet cruelly, "Nurse Yu, you can go up with me!"

"No problem, the old slave is willing to help!"

Nanny Yu said a few more good words, and seeing that Qingli didn't object, she stood behind Ji You, twirling her steps, waving her handkerchief, a bit like a wealthy family nurturing a nanny.

"Miss, you seem to have a yellow flower."

The light in Mai Dong's eyes flickered away, and Nanny Yu yelled every day relying on her seniority, this time she got the chance, it's best to take revenge.

"Yes, it was forced on me by the servants of the Chen family."

Qing Li raised her head and was looking at the man upstairs opposite, he looked pretty good, but his complexion was as pale as paper, he must have been in poor health for a long time, he kept covering his mouth with a handkerchief, as if he was coughing.

"Here."

Qing Li handed the yellow flower to Mai Dong, looked at her eyes on Mammy's head, immediately understood what she meant, covered her mouth and smiled, "Hurry up, the two of us quickly hid in the carriage, haha."

Mammy Yu was wearing a yellow flower on her head, without realizing it, she followed Ji You up to the high platform, with her head held high, with a decent smile on her face, waving her handkerchief from time to time to signal to the people below. There was a lot of discussion, she felt that she might be more popular than those girls, and kept nodding to everyone.

Until she stepped off the high platform, Ji You didn't understand what was going on, she looked back, her face was covered with black lines instantly, the yellow flower on Nanny Yu's head was blooming brightly, the other party's face was complacent, Ji You's face was suffocated It was red, and Qingli couldn't be seen in the crowd, so she immediately covered her face and ran to the carriage, leaving Nanny Yu bragging on the spot alone.

"Qingli, what's going on, why is Nanny Yu wearing flowers?"

Ji You patted her chest, took a big sip of tea, and felt deeply ashamed. Just now the people below burst out laughing. She thought there was something wrong with her, and it turned out that the crux of the matter lay with the nanny.

"You have to ask Mai Dong."

Qing Li didn't care at all, drinking tea leisurely, while Mai Dong turned her face to the window, not intending to explain.

"Which wicked bastard actually planted a yellow flower on the old slave's head!"

After Mammy Yu understood, she got into the carriage angrily, gritted her teeth, and drank two cups of tea angrily. After a while, she said, "Those uneducated people laughed at me and said that Mr. Chen didn't look for grandma. Bah! How can this old slave be so rude?" old!"
