Chapter 205
Ruo wanted to go to the toilet, Ruoxi took her to the back building, she was very interested in seeing the new toilet facilities inside.Ruoxi had to introduce it to her, let her try it out, and let Ruoling also experience it.

Both of them agreed, Ruoxi was very happy, and said with a smile: "This is only the first generation of trial equipment, and the equipment in other yards is better than this one. The special prize of today's lottery is this set of toilet equipment, and the second master will give it to you People come to install it for free.”

"If we can't get the special prize you mentioned, don't we have to spend money to buy it?" Ruo heard and looked at Ruoxi with a narrow smile, "You husband and wife are of the same mind, and the same is not profitable. When I got up early, I even turned my ideas on relatives and friends."

"You're just an elf, and nothing can be hidden from your eyes." Ruoxi laughed when she saw her pointing it out.

The three of them sat for a while, when a girl from the garden came over and said that Mrs. Hou invited them over because they were about to draw a lottery.After hearing this, Ruoxi hurriedly brought the two of them back to the garden, and saw that everyone gathered in front of the stage.

Mother Hu who came to the stage this time, she has stood behind the old matriarch in her whole life, and it was the first time she stood out in front of everyone like today.

"Next, let's draw a lottery. First, we will draw ten third prizes. Madam Ma and Madam Liu are invited to come on stage." She was a little nervous, and her palms were sweating after she finished speaking.

The two ladies who were named in the audience were obviously a little surprised, but they were embarrassed not to go on stage, and went up under the gaze of everyone.Following Madam Hu's guidance, she took out five pieces of paper from each red box with an opening on the top, and read out the names on them.

Madam Hu invited these ten people to the stage, and the maids presented well-packaged small gifts.Although it was not a valuable rare item, this surprise was rare, and they all looked very happy.

Only then did everyone realize that this was a lottery draw, which was really strange and interesting.Then five second prizes were drawn, and the prizes were naturally higher than the third prize.

The first prize was drawn by Mrs. Hou, and when Mrs. Chen was mentioned, everyone couldn't help but look at each other.Seeing this, Ruoxi smiled and pushed Ruoling lightly, and said with a smile: "Your husband's family name is Chen, what are you doing here, hurry up!"

Only then did Ruo Ling come to his senses, and he went on stage awkwardly and had nowhere to put his hands and feet.She found the tightly wrapped small box that Mrs. Hou handed over, and went down in a panic.

Jia Siyu on the side couldn't help snorting softly, lowered his head to talk to Tian Shi, and gave Ruo Ling a look of disdain.Ruo Ling felt even more cramped when he saw it, and felt as if he was being roasted on fire.She told Ruoxi that she wanted to go back, Ruoxi immediately ordered someone to arrange a carriage, and asked Lue to send it out.

It was only after getting into the carriage that Ruo Ling thought of unpacking the prize, and opened the tightly wrapped package, which contained a small box, only to find a silver ticket of 500 taels inside.She opened her mouth wide in surprise, this was enough for their family to spend half a year.Dingbohou's mansion is really rich, and they are so generous when they know that they are giving away for nothing.However, her luck was not so good, and she was drawn the first prize in one fell swoop. It was a loss this time.

Besides, the special prize at the Hou Mansion has already been released, and it turned out to be Nanning Hou Madam who won it. She doesn't care what the prize is, but this highest prize makes her proud.Besides, she went to the toilet and saw the benefits of the new toilet, so she just wanted to buy a set and try it at home.This prize is very practical, not just a gimmick.

On the second day after the old lady's birthday banquet was over, Lin Yixuan personally took people to Nanning Hou's mansion to lay the water first, and then installed the hot water bottle and toilet.

The old matriarch's birthday party lasted for more than half a day, and many people used the toilet, and people came to the Hou's mansion to inquire.Within a few days, many people ordered hot water bottles and toilets, and the business was very good.The guys who laid the sewer and installed it were busy all day long, so Yixuan had to send more people to it, so that their busy feet never touched the ground.

Ruoxi wasn't idle either, those sisters-in-law came to learn how to knit sweaters when they had time, Madam Hou saw that the old matriarch was well dressed to keep warm and politely asked for one.She wanted to knit one for the children as well as Lin Yixuan, so she had to rush to work day and night.

This sweater knitting is not something everyone can learn, Ruoxi has just taught them flat stitch and back stitch, impatient Mei Xia can't learn anymore.

"When can we weave these woven pieces with no patterns or styles?" She put away her hands first, and Cai Xia and Yun Xia also felt that it was too difficult to learn.

On the contrary, Fourth Miss Wan Xia insisted on coming every day, if Ruoxi didn't have time to teach, she would just sit quietly and watch.

"This water-red rag is very beautiful when it is made into flowers and sewn on the sweater, but it's more beautiful if it's scattered and casual." Seeing Ruoxi doing work, she suddenly said.

After hearing this, Ruoxi raised her eyes to look at her, then smiled faintly and replied: "Fourth younger sister is quite stylish."

When she heard this, her eyes flickered and she stopped talking, Ruoxi threw the unknitted sweater over, and said, "Knit the front piece for me, with two stitches straight and two stitches reversed, stop knitting ten rows, and then I'll teach you how to weave patterns."

She listened and started to knit, Ruoxi raised her head and glanced at her, only to see that her dressing style was still as unacceptable as before.The top is a pink back that reveals the red sleeves inside, and the bottom is a bright red pomegranate skirt. The collision of three different reds makes people look disturbed.

Looking at her peaceful face and ignoring her attire, Ruoxi found that she could still be called dignified and beautiful.

She subconsciously felt that Wan Xia was not as superficial and vulgar as she appeared on the surface, but everyone in the Hou Mansion was eccentric, and Ruoxi had no intention of prying into anyone's inner secrets.

Perhaps it was Ruoxi's attitude that made Wan Xia feel very comfortable, and she came to Fengju more and more frequently.But occasionally Lin Yixuan came back early at noon or at night, and she always left in a hurry, as if she was very afraid of her brother.

"Are you too strict as an older brother, that's why fourth sister always runs away in a panic when seeing you." Ruoxi couldn't help asking after seeing you a few times.

"That girl was good when she was young, but she has become ignorant when she grows up in the past three or four years. She has become more and more eccentric and doesn't like to talk, but she was born to fall in love with you." Yixuan replied after hearing this: "There will be a draft in this palace. Our family All the girls have to be selected and failed before they can marry freely. After the selection, you should find her a husband's family. How can this temperament be pleasing. Since she is very angry with you, you can enlighten her, no matter what, she is a younger sister. "

After hearing this, Ruoxi's heart moved, and she suddenly thought of something.

Mrs. Hou told the old matriarch Zhang Luo to tailor new clothes for Wan Xia, make jewelry and other things.Although no one said it clearly, they all knew that this was a preparation for the upcoming selection in the palace.

Wan Xia doesn't seem to care much, she still finds time to run to Linfengju every day, she can already knit simple patterns, but she still doesn't know how to add and subtract stitches and needs advice.Ruoxi saw that she learned quickly, so she knew that she was a smart person; seeing that she was the only one who persevered among the girls, she knew that she was patient and persevering.
