Chapter 133 Playing
Fu Yuan quickly found a dozen vases, and Qin Xingfu started arranging flowers after eating and rinsing his mouth.
“Ikebana is a bonsai-style flower art that uses flowers as the main material and creates the infinite wonders of nature in seven major flower containers: vases, plates, bowls, jars, tubes, baskets, and basins…”
She was in a very good mood as she arranged the flowers and explained the situation. Zhang Liu and Fu Yuan helped her find many dead woods and stones. These unrelated things took on new vitality in her hands.
Unknowingly, she attracted a lot of people's attention. Lingjuan's eyes lit up and she thought this was a very good selling point. Now she has become a perfect businessman and very smart. Later, she also set off a flower arrangement craze.
"How is it? Isn't it beautiful? Fu Yuan, put this here and this pot here."
Qin Xingfu put all the vases in place in one go and directed people to put them in their appropriate positions, making the whole house even more lively.
"Excellent! Sir, this is the perfect finishing touch!"
Zhang Liu suddenly had a lot of inspiration in his mind, and something seemed to emerge in his mind. It was the feeling he had been looking for for a long time. Today, he suddenly felt enlightened. No wonder he always felt that something was missing before.
"My Lord, I want to learn too."
Lingjuan took her hand and said, "It's been a long time since you've done something so interesting."
"This is very simple. There is also a hairpin. Come, sit down and I will make one for you."
"What is a hairpin? Is it the same as using flowers as a hairpin?"
Zhang Liu's wife Liu Su asked curiously.
"Sir, can I wear flowers in my hair, too?"
Seeing how expectant they were, Qin Xingfu nodded in agreement.
"You two will form groups and follow my example. Bring some combs and hairpins."
I don't plan to work today, I'll just have some fun. Now the ones left here are all girls, so it's just right for them to wear flowers in their hair.
"Good~"
Ling Juan ran the fastest and came back soon. Liu Su also came back and brought Ding Zhao's wife with her.
"Come, find a stool and sit down. Let's loosen our hair first..."
The afternoon sun was not so glaring, and a group of women sat in the yard, watching and learning how to make hairpins. It was not very difficult, and each of them was very skillful and soon made beautiful hairpins for each other.
Everyone was looking in the mirror with great joy. Ding Zhao's wife Yuan Xiaocao had been chubby like Ding Zhao in recent years. She had been thinking about losing weight, but she was stunned when she saw a different look on herself today.
"My Lord, is this really me? It's so beautiful!"
"Well, everyone is unique, and you are quite cute this way."
The chubby Yuan Xiaocao has a good personality and is very popular among the children on Xingfu Street. She also likes children very much, and every family will ask her to help look after their children when they have something to do.
"My Lord, I feel like I'm back to being a teenager."
Wanda’s wife Tian Qu almost forgot what she looked like when she was young.
"As long as we women love ourselves and take good care of ourselves, we will always be eighteen years old!"
Qin Xingfu has some freckles on her face. She doesn't know if it's due to stress or the recent pregnancy. Today, Zanhua found that freckles are not that ugly. They are even quite cute and make her look playful.
"Sir, is there anything particular about this hairpin?"
Lingjuan thought that he could launch this hairpin tomorrow, and he felt happy just thinking about it.
When Qin Xingfu saw her like that, he knew what she was thinking.
"There's no need to be so particular about it. It's just a way for girls to dress themselves up. But there's a saying in my hometown that if you wear flowers in your hair in this life, you'll be beautiful in your next life. Wearing flowers in your hair is more of a symbol of our women's positive and optimistic attitude towards life."
Lingjuan recalled the words "Wear flowers in your hair in this life, and you will be beautiful in the next life" and smiled with curved eyebrows.
"That's great! Then we will wear more flowers in our hair, and we will all be beautiful in the future."
The sunset fell in the courtyard, and Queen Ying came back with the children. When they saw the scene in the courtyard, they thought they had walked into the wrong door, so they took a few steps back and confirmed again and again that they had not walked into the wrong door.
Qin Wuji looked at his mother at a glance.
"Mom! I want flowers too!"
Mingqi was amazed by the aunts today.
"Wow! So many beautiful aunts, have you all turned into fairies today?"
The childish words made the group of women feel embarrassed, and they all bowed and said goodbye and went home.
"Mom! I want to be a fairy too!"
Queen Ying's eyes never left her. He really felt that she was like a flower fairy at this moment. Qin Xingfu felt a little shy when he stared at her. She raised her eyes and met his. Her ears turned red unconsciously.
The smile on Queen Ying's face deepened, and she simply squatted aside to watch her put flowers on the children's hair.
The children's hair was too short to wear flowers in them, so she made a wreath for them, each of which looked like a small crown.
"Mom, this is different from yours."
Qin Wuji looked in the mirror. She wanted to be like her mother.
"Baby, your hair is a little short. When it grows to here, mommy will make the same for you, okay? This one is also very beautiful."
"Mom, Qiqi likes them all!"
Qin Mingqi thought it looked good this way. After she finished her editing, she pulled Qin Wuji and said.
"Sister, let's go out and look for Gao Ya and the others."
The little guy couldn't wait to go out and show off, and at the door he met Dan Yao and Xu He who had returned.
"Dad, do the flowers that Mom made for us look pretty?"
Mingqi showed off the circle. She was really happy today. She went out to play with her brother Dening during the day, and brought flowers back when she came back.
"That's great! Do you guys want to go out and play again?"
Dan Yao squatted down and touched her face.
"Not far, right here, Sister Gao Ya, here! You have it too!"
The little girls on Xingfu Street were chattering together, discussing their flowers. When Dandan and Xuhe walked in, they saw Queen Ying kissing Qin Xingfu. Dandan coughed lightly to remind her, and Qin Xingfu also went forward to hug them.
"You guys are back! It's been a hard day."
"My lord, it's beautiful!"
Seeing her like this, Xuhe praised her very seriously. Tanliang's eyes were full of amazement and he also wanted to kiss her.
"That's right, come on. I also arranged the flowers today. Look, I did all this."
Qin Xingfu took them to see the results of his afternoon work.
"That's great. This way, the house seems to have a little more spring."
Dan Yao didn't expect that his home could be decorated like this, it had a unique charm.
"Your Excellency has so many wonderful ideas! You have broad knowledge, and the food you make is always meaningful."
Queen Ying was very proud. She believed that everyone in the entire Qin Dynasty would imitate her dress tomorrow.
"That is."
Qin Xingfu continued to make wreaths. After all, she still had a daughter. As for her sons, they were all very patriarchal and wouldn't let her kiss or hug them.
"Xuhe, why are you the first one to come back today?"
"They both followed Mi Fu to pick up their brother and sister."
"it is good!"
As long as the children were fine, it was okay. After a while, Queen Qin and her family came back. Seeing that the girls at the door all had beautiful wreaths on their heads, Queen Qin ran in.
"mom!"
"Here it is, this one is yours!"
Girls all love beauty. Queen Qin shyly took the wreath and put it on her head.
"It looks great! You're so beautiful, baby!"
Qin Xingfu looked at her daughter and she looked like a little elf. Dan Liao and others praised her, Queen Qin said.
"I'm going to find my sisters."
He walked away jumping and skipping.
"Wow! My sister is beautiful!"
In the evening, many people came back and looked sideways when they saw a group of children with flowers on their heads. Qin Gao just got off the bus in the distance and saw an incredibly beautiful little girl who was extremely dazzling in the crowd.
"Stay here tonight, and we'll visit my master tomorrow. This place is very close to Xingfu Street, so I won't stay here anymore. I have to go home. I live over there at No. 98, which is not far away. Feel free to come find me if you have any problems. I don't think anything will happen. This inn is the best in Xianyang..."
Yian led Qinshuang and the others into the inn. Qinshuang saw that his brother didn't follow them, so he pulled him.
"Brother, what are you looking at?"
Following his gaze, Qin Shuang also saw a group of beautiful children. She just thought he was attracted by someone.
Qin Gao came back to his senses and followed Qin Shuang into the inn.
"Master Yi, please come in!"
The owner of the inn was a man who had followed Yi Lai to work in the past. His name was Jin Yu. He had followed him for many years and had some family background. He was very smart, and when Qin Xingfu bought land, he also followed behind and bought a piece of land. He built a small courtyard for himself. Seeing that many people liked to come here, he opened this inn, and his business was booming every day.
"Please help take care of these children and open a family room for them."
Ian quickly paid the bill, but Jin Yu was reluctant to take the money and declined.
"Master Yi, why are you being so polite to me? We have to make arrangements. Forget about this."
"That won't do. Adults have to pay for their purchases, and I don't have the nerve to do that."
Jin Yu didn't bother to be polite with him and took the money.
"Qinshuang, come here. This is the owner of the Jin store. If you still can't find my house, you can ask him. He is familiar with this place. Meals are included in the room rate. You don't have to go out to eat. Xianyang is too big. I'm worried that you won't be able to make it back."
"Thank you, Master Yi!"
Qin Shuang saluted, and Yian saw that they looked tired, so he said to Jin Yu.
"Let someone show them the room. If everything is ok, I'll go home."
"Okay, Xiao Liu, take the guests to the Bamboo Garden."
The waiter who was called took Qin Shuang and others to see the room.
"Guest, please come this way!"
"Master Yi, are these people the descendants of the legendary Qin Huali? Are they credible?"
Jin Yu was still somewhat looking forward to it, as he had never seen the surname Qin before.
"It should be correct. I can ask my master to recognize it tomorrow. Is there anything going on in Xianyang recently?"
Yian felt that it was almost certain. His trip back and forth had wasted a lot of time. There were new things happening in Xianyang City every moment.
"There are a few things. I heard that Sanchuan County will be merged into Xianyang, an airport will be built, and something will be done, uh...it's called district...district something, oh yeah, that's called regional governance, I also heard about it, and also, some people made the adults unhappy today, the adults are going to make them retire tomorrow."
Jin Yu whispered carefully in his ear that although Daqin still encouraged the people to actively participate in discussions on political affairs, they were still in awe and spoke in low voices during discussions.
Ian was more interested in the latter matter. He had long wanted to get rid of those old bastards. They did nothing all day, had no political achievements, and were full of calculations all day, which made them very unhappy. Since the adults had brought it up, he had to go to court early tomorrow to play a role.
Qin Shuang and the others went downstairs after looking at the room. They were very satisfied as there was enough space for all of them to stay.
"Thank you, Master Yi!"
"That's all right. By the way, I may have to go to court tomorrow. Take this and go out for a walk. If you don't know the way, ask the shop owner Jin to find someone to lead the way for you. Old Jin, I'll trouble you first!"
"Ian said that this is too formal. I will treat you well."
Yian gave them a few instructions and went home first, fearing that it would be too late and he would have no food to eat. When he got home, he saw his wife Cui Zhi coming out with flowers in her hair and dishes in her hands.
"Ah! Why are you back?"
Cui Zhi was very happy. Yian hugged her and she blushed. Their eldest daughter came out with her brother who was still walking unsteadily and called out sweetly to him when she saw him.
"Father!"
Ian felt his heart calmed down a lot, he squatted down and hugged the children and kissed them.
"I miss you so much. I've been dreaming about you every night."
"You watch over them first, I'll go make some food."
Cui Zhi originally wanted to just have a casual meal, but when she saw him coming back, she immediately took out the meat from her home and prepared something delicious.
"Thank you for your hard work, madam!"
Ian looked at her busy figure, his heart filled with happiness.
"Father! I want flowers too!"
There are no flowers planted in Yi's family, so Yi Yi can't even wear flowers in her hair. It was no use crying just now because her mother wouldn't give her flowers.
"Be good, I'll make one for you tomorrow, okay?"
It's so late now, it's not good to disturb them.
"OK then!"
Just now, my mother also said that she would make it for her tomorrow.
In stark contrast to the harmonious atmosphere on Xingfu Street is Zhao Gao's mansion. Over the years, Zhao Gao has been conferred a title of nobility, and many people have tried to curry favor with him. He has also trained many of his own people, but their abilities are always lagging behind, especially his son and son-in-law, who are all good-for-nothings!
"My Lord, it's late!"
Zhao Gao's concubine concealed her disgust and called him softly. If her parents hadn't been greedy for money, how could she have been sent to this rootless man? But he loved beauty and liked to torture them. They all wished she would die sooner. She came to serve him today because she lost the card game.
"roll!"
Zhao Gao smashed the tea bowl and scolded her. The concubine trembled and ran away quickly! When she was alone, the panic expression on her face had long disappeared.
"Bah! What the hell!"
The maid pulled her sleeve to signal her to be careful, but she rolled her eyes and went back to her own courtyard gracefully.
"You go first! No need to wait on me."
The maid bowed and left. She lay on the bed, her eyes full of despair, not knowing when such days would end. Two lines of tears slid down from the corners of her eyes. She really wanted to die! She was still as young as a flower, but she could only wither in this house.
