Another servant named Xiao Si heard this.

Suddenly, he asked curiously, "Could it be that the young master bought that purple chrysanthemum from the capital?"

He just came back from a business trip today, so he's not very clear.

Xiao Wu smiled bitterly, "It's that purple chrysanthemum. The young master spent several hundred taels to buy it."

"Not only is the color not as purple as before, but it also shows signs of withering. This makes the young master very sad."

Xiao Si couldn't help but ask: "Then why don't you ask the buyer to see it?"

Xiao Wu said helplessly: "I was already sick. It would take about half a month to get from Nanxi County to the capital even by water. If the road is bumpy, I'm afraid I'll die on the way before I get to the capital."

"I've asked all the gardeners I could find in the county to look at it, but they can't do anything about it. They also told the young master to be prepared."

Xiao Si asked, "What should we do? If the gardeners in the county can't take care of the flowers, who are you going to find?"

Xiao Wu sighed and said, "So it's so difficult for me. The young master said that if I can't find a gardener who can do it, he will deduct two months' salary from me."

Xiao Si shook his head. "Unless a gardener falls from the sky, you should prepare to have your monthly salary deducted."

He comforted her again, "You have been taking care of the young master's greenhouse all along. It's good enough that we only deducted your monthly salary if there was any problem."

"I heard that in some powerful families, a flower is more important than the life of a servant, and if there is a problem, they will just beat him to death."

Xiao Wu sighed again, "That's all I can think of, unless a gardener really falls from the sky."

Suddenly, a clear and pleasant voice sounded beside the two of them.

"I am good at growing flowers and treating flowers."

They both turned their heads and saw a little girl holding a woman's arm, standing not far away.

Both of them: "..." This fell a little too fast.

Xiao Wu looked at Shi Qingluo half-doubtfully and asked, "Are you really good at treating flowers?"

Shi Qingluo nodded, "Of course it's true."

"Do you know Zi Ju?" Xiao Wu asked again.

This is the chrysanthemum that has become popular in Beijing recently. This color has never existed before.

Their young master bought one at a high price to raise, and now it is the best in the county.

This girl looks like a country girl from the countryside, how could she know Zi Ju?

Shi Qingluo knew the other party's doubts, "My master is Taoist Wuchen. I learned from him how to grow flowers and treat flowers. Not to mention treating purple chrysanthemums, I can even cultivate purple chrysanthemums."

It is not difficult to cultivate purple chrysanthemums artificially. She is very good at cultivating, transplanting and grafting various famous flowers.

Who made her have a grandfather who is obsessed with flowers?

The reason she was able to go to the Agricultural University was because she promised her grandfather that she would help him take care of the flowers after graduation. He helped her to completely satisfy her parents who insisted that she go into business.

Xiao Si and Xiao Wu looked at each other and asked, "Are you kidding me?" Shi Qingluo looked at them and said, "Whether I can really cure your young master's flowers, you will know when you go there. Can you find other gardeners besides me?"

Xiaowu thought about it and it made sense. It was better than not inviting anyone back.

"Okay, then come back with me and give it a try."

He said with a hint of warning: "But don't try to deceive me. My family is the Bai family. My young master is not only a scholar, but also has an uncle who is an official in the capital."

Shi Qingluo laughed: "My husband is also a scholar. For his reputation, I can't lie to you."

Xiao Si was surprised. "Your husband is also a scholar? What's his name?"

There are not many scholars in Nanxi County, and he knows almost all of them.

Shi Qingluo did not hide it, "Xiao Hanzheng."

Xiao Si was even more surprised, "Ah! Are you the young wife that Master Xiao wanted to marry?"

This will ask, "Do you know my husband?"

"I was the first in the county exam, the prefectural exam, and the imperial exam, and I was the third place winner."

Now it was Shi Qingluo's turn to be surprised. It turned out that her young husband was so powerful.

She smiled and said, "So, as the wife of a scholar with three imperial examinations, there is no need for me to lie to you, right?"

Xiao Si and Xiao Wu's doubts about Shi Qingluo were reduced because she was Xiao Hanzheng's wife.

Several people chatted as they walked.

Shi Qingluo asked: "Is your Bai family very powerful in the county?"

From the way they spoke just now, it seemed that the Bai family was one of the most prominent families in the county.

The original person had never been to the county town, so she was completely in the dark.

Xiao Si said proudly: "Our Bai family is a first-class family in the county. My wife's sister is the family of a fourth-rank official in the capital."

Shi Qingluo thought for a moment, "Is your Bai family more powerful than the Wu family?"

Xiao Si smiled awkwardly: "That's not really better. Our Bai family is about the same as the Wu family."

He added: "But the character of our Bai family is definitely better than that of the Wu family."

Shi Qingluo asked, "From the tone of your voice, it seems that your relationship with the Wu family is not that good?"

Xiao Si nodded, "Not only are they not that good, they are basically irreconcilable rivals."

The whole county knew about this, so he said it bluntly.

He asked doubtfully, "Don't you even know this?"

Shi Qingluo replied: "I used to practice with my master in the Taoist temple on the mountain, so I don't know much about worldly affairs."

Xiao Wu next to him asked, "Are you talking about the Taoist temple in Shangxi Village? Did your master really ascend to heaven?"

They also heard that there was a very powerful Taoist priest in Shangxi Village who ascended to heaven and became an immortal not long ago, and many people saw strange visions.

Shi Qingluo nodded without any guilt, "Yes, my master has ascended to heaven, so I will marry Xiao Hanzheng."

The noble temperament cultivated in the previous life was naturally revealed. If he was not pale and thin, he would give people the feeling of being a superior.

Xiao Wu and the other two also felt it, so they looked at Shi Qingluo with more confidence, "No wonder you can cure flowers, it turns out you are the old immortal's apprentice."

Shi Qingluo: “…” It turns out that her credibility as a living person is not as good as that of a dead person.

However, people in ancient times were quite feudal and superstitious, especially the stories of Taoist priests ascending to heaven were considered miraculous, so many people believed in them.

Even if one doesn't really believe it in his heart, he will still be in awe.

Shi Qingluo smiled confidently, "Of course, my master knows a lot, growing flowers and managing flowers is just a piece of cake."

Then she changed the subject and asked, "By the way, has the county got a new magistrate?"

Xiao Wu replied: "Yes, I just changed it a few days ago."

"The old county magistrate retired early, and the new county magistrate is from the capital."

Shi Qingluo asked again tentatively: "I heard that the new county magistrate has a strong background?"

Since the Bai family is one of the most prominent families in the county, they should know the new county magistrate.

Judging from Xiao Si's appearance and conversation, he is most likely the servant who serves Young Master Bai.

As expected, Xiao Si knew, "That's not about having a background, but a very big background."

Shi Qingluo asked curiously: "What background?"

Xiao Si did not hide it, but his voice was a little lower, "The Queen's nephew, the Marquis's legitimate son, this is a high status, right?"
