The gatekeeper was an old man. Hearing Yunling say that he was delivering something to Miss Zheng, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

He said: "You two, wait a moment, I'm going to call the red cotton girl."

Obviously he is used to this job.

After a while, the girl who bought the bracelet that day came out.

Yunling took a step forward and said with a smile: "Hello, sister Hong Mian. The lady from your mansion said before that she would bring fresh things if she had any, so I came boldly today. I have two fans, please take care of them."

Hong Mian nodded, "Take it out, I'll take a look first and then show it to the lady. This is the county government office. Outsiders are not allowed to come in casually, so I won't invite you in."

Yunling handed her the small cloth bag in her hand.

Hong Mian took a look inside and pushed it back, "What's so strange about a fan like this? It's not as good-looking as the bracelet you had that day. My young lady will definitely not like it."

That day's hand-holding and holding of the hand-string was really unique, which made the young lady very proud among her friends, and she also received many gifts in return.

The young lady was hoping that this little girl would give her some new and unique things, but she was disappointed with these ordinary fans.

Yunling said hurriedly: "Sister Hongmian, take a closer look."

She took out the fan used by cats to flutter butterflies, and the afternoon sun shone on the cat's eyes, reflecting two bright rays of light.

"This..." Hong Mian then discovered that the embroidery on this fan was not as simple as ordinary embroidery. There were broken jade beads hanging on the cat's eyes, butterfly wings, cat tail and the hydrangea on the side, which was quite a bit... Interesting.

In particular, this fan is actually double-sided embroidery, with the same pattern of a cat flapping a butterfly hanging with broken jade beads on both sides.

She quickly put the fan into the package and said, "Wait for me here."

Turning around, he hurried back to the inner courtyard to resume his life.

Yunling stopped her again, "Sister Hongmian, wait a moment."

Hongmian turned around and asked in surprise: "Is there anything else?"

Yunling smiled and shook her head, taking out a small velvet flower hairpin from her purse, "Sister is born fair, and the elegance of this flower matches her very well. I hope she won't dislike it."

The velvet flower in her hand is made in the shape of a camellia. It is pink, tender and cute. What girl would not be tempted by it?

Moreover, these velvet flowers are sold in many embroidery shops and jewelry stores. They are neither fresh nor expensive, so there is no harm in accepting them.

Hongmian took it with a smile, thanked him, and left in a hurry.

Lao Qi turned his head to Yun Ling and said disgustedly: "Open your eyes and tell lies."

Where is that girl white?

Miss, going out to sell things is really... tsk tsk.

Yunling raised her face, which was comparable to that of a yellow-faced woman. "How does it compare to my current face? Didn't I tell the truth?"

Lao Qi hurriedly took two steps back, fearing that the yellow powder on her face would get on his clothes.

The powder mixed by the old lady is really powerful. If you put it on your face with water and rub it hard, it will fall off. But if it sticks to your clothes, you will have to rub it for a long time and still can't wash it off.

Don't ask him how he knew.

Anyway, he didn't want to wash it again.

"Hmph!" Yunling snorted coldly: "Old Qi, I find that you have a strong opinion of me."

Lao Qi: "It's okay. I have to obey the eldest lady now, otherwise I won't have enough to eat!"

Yunling: "..."

When Tang Li heard the word "horse", he hurriedly raised his head and neighed, looking at Yun Ling with a pair of innocent horse eyes, as if he was also saying that I am obedient and give me enough to eat.

Yunling: "..."

In the backyard of the county government office, in the inner courtyard where Master Zheng's daughter-in-law lives, Miss Zheng Zheng Rongwan was playing with the fan in her hand. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "I don't know how that little girl's brain was born. It's so strange." I have too many wonderful ideas and good craftsmanship to make this fan so beautiful."

Hongmian also nodded repeatedly, "Maybe there is an embroidery expert in the family. Just looking at this embroidery work, she is not inferior to the embroidery girls from Jiangnan."

Zheng Rongwan played with Maoer Pudie's fan for a while, then picked up the second fan from the cloth bag, with a flash of surprise in her eyes.

Hong Mian even exclaimed from the side: "What a beautiful peacock opening its tail."

Zheng Rongwan's hands touched the fan one by one, lingering on the exquisite embroidery, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

When his fingers touched those agate jade beads that were of good color but poor quality, he frowned dissatisfied, "It's just that the materials used for these beads are too poor, and the plain fan surface and handle are too high quality." It’s a little low, I just want to play around in the house, how can I give it away?”

Hong Mian thought so and asked hesitantly: "Then I will return these and ask her to make some good ones before sending them back?"

Zheng Rongwan nodded, looking at Hong Mian wrapping the two fans and taking them away, feeling inexplicably reluctant to part with them.

"Let it go. In this case, you go outside and bring that little girl in, and I will tell her face to face!"

"Yes."

Hongmian walked happily.

If the young lady really returned the things, then she would feel a little uncomfortable after accepting the velvet flowers for no reason but not getting anything done.

She trotted back to the small door, her head covered with beads of sweat, "Miss Tang, my young lady wants you to come in for a discussion."

Lao Qi was a little uneasy.

Yunling said, "Lao Qi, I'll be back soon."

It's not a remote area with no corners. This is at the feet of the emperor after all, and nothing will happen to a person who enters the backyard of the county government in an upright manner.

She followed Hongmian into the inner courtyard.

Along the way, there were flowers and balustrades and painted buildings. I couldn't help but sigh that the treatment as a member of the government was good. I wonder if she would ever be destined to live in such a courtyard in her life?

Or can we place our hopes on the third and fourth uncles we have never met?

Both uncles have the reputation of being scholars, especially the fourth uncle, who is extremely talented in reading and is a famous scholar in Qingzhou Academy.

When His Majesty punished the Tang family this time, he only deprived the grandfather of his official position and prevented the Tang family from sitting in court for further consultations. However, he did not say that the Tang family would not be allowed to continue taking the exams for merit, nor did he deprive the two uncles of their reputation as scholars.

Thinking of this, Yunling suddenly understood why Mr. Tang kept saying that His Majesty was a benevolent king.

Emperor Tai'an really didn't block the Tang family's escape route.

However, in ancient times, people's moral character and family reputation were very important. Otherwise, it would not be said that "virtue is used to determine one's position, and ability is used to award officials."

It is not difficult for the two uncles to pass the imperial examination, but it will be difficult if they want to further pass the imperial examination and become an official.

After all, there have been people in the family who have been convicted of crimes, and there is such a close relationship between father and brother...

Hey, she still had to find a way to solve this problem.

It felt like there was a thousand kilograms of weight on my shoulders, and my steps became heavier unconsciously.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered something.

Her third uncle and fourth uncle’s wedding arrangements for next year, gifts for teachers and daily flowers...

Not even settled yet!

She unconsciously quickened her pace and walked forward as fast as her butt was burning, rushing to meet her God of Wealth.
