"Welcome everyone to our annual embroidery competition!" the host shouted on the stage. Even the pouring rain could not stop everyone from coming to watch the competition.

"Woohoo! Come on, daughter! Come on, wife!" When the people in the audience heard this, they immediately started to cheer, and the endless cheers filled their ears.

"Our theme today is still 'rain'! Come on, contestants!" The host looked at everyone's high spirits and immediately started to cheer.

"The rules this year are the same as in previous years. It will take the time of one stick of incense. You can choose any form as long as it is completed at the end." The host explained the rules and then stepped down from the stage.

Li Han and the others went on stage one after another.

As soon as Hua Yunyun sat down, she immediately picked up the tools on the table and started her embroidery. Hua Yunyun was also a beautiful woman with a clever mind and hands, so she was naturally more proficient in these than Li Han. Hua Yunyun chose double-sided embroidery.

"Look, which girl wants to embroider double-sided embroidery."

"It seems so."

"Can this be embroidered?"

"You're so young, but you're still so arrogant."

"I think it's pretty good. Look, it's embroidered so well now."

"Well, let's see the result then!"

Hua Yunyun's choice of double-sided embroidery shocked everyone here. Everyone started discussing it. In fact, double-sided embroidery is not difficult, but now it is limited to one stick of incense, so it is basically difficult to complete.

There was a girl who had done it before, but thinking about it now, it was a bit of a pity.

"Rain?" Li Han was the only one on the stage who had not started yet. After all, the topic had been decided long ago, and others had already thought of the composition. However, Li Han suddenly felt that the composition he had thought of before was not good. The crying little girl could not reflect the specialness of the rain, so Li Han wanted to change the composition.

Li Han thought for a long time but couldn't come up with any composition. When Li Han was about to give up, he met Lu Li's eyes, and the memories of last night came flooding back like a spring.

"It's him." Li Han thought of the composition in her mind and started to work. This was her first time to do it, so she had to be extremely careful because there would be no room for redemption this time.

Li Han looked at the embroidery in her hands very seriously. Although some parts were not very good, Li Han liked the overall composition very much. Even if she didn't get a ranking this time, she wouldn't feel sad.

After all, this is a memory exclusive to her and Lu Li, no one else.

Li Han had almost finished her embroidery and wanted to see how much time was left. She happened to see Hua Yunyun's work, which was a double-sided embroidery with a very good composition.

Li Han also looked at her own. She used a young couple watching the moon on the roof as the theme, but made the rain secondary. It seems that a good composition alone is not enough, and good craftsmanship is also required.

Li Han was just thinking about it, and she didn't feel too much burden in her heart. After all, this was her first time dealing with these things, and she just had to do her best in everything.

If the Emperor and the Empress knew that I was participating in this kind of event, I'm afraid they would laugh so hard that they couldn't stop. It has indeed been a long time since I last saw the Emperor and the Empress. When I go back next time, I will take some time to visit them.

Li Han thought as she embroidered.

"The competition time is almost up!" the host came on stage to remind.

“That’s fast.”

"Yeah, yeah, I still have so much to go."

"Me too, and mine isn't embroidered properly."

"I am the same, too. Oh well, forget it."

As time slowly passed, the contestants were discussing with each other, not about their own works, but about doubting themselves.

Li Han glanced at them, just shook his head, and lowered his head to do his own thing.

If they are unwilling to trust themselves with these simple things, then who will trust them in the future?

"The game is over." The host came on stage and rang the bell.

Li Han had just finished the embroidery in her hands, and Hua Yunyun also finished her embroidery on time.

"Exam takers, please put down your needles and threads, otherwise your scores will be invalidated." The host saw that some contestants were secretly adding two stitches to their works and immediately reminded them.

"Everyone can start voting. Vote for whoever you like." The host placed their embroidery on the table and placed some boxes in front for them to vote.

After the first round of voting, Hua Yunyun obviously had more votes.

Lu Li also followed the crowd to check it out. He was a little curious as to why Li Han suddenly became so confused and yet so serious. He wanted to know what kind of topic she had chosen on the spur of the moment.

The crowd slowly moved forward, and Lu Li finally arrived in front of Li Han's work. Just by looking at the painting, Lu Li knew that it was Li Han's work, because there was a meaning in it that only he and Li Han understood.

Lu Li put all the silver he had on him into Li Han's box. Lu Li didn't know that voting would be done with silver, so he didn't bring much silver with him.

"I learned it from my mother when I was little." Hua Yunyun received a lot of votes, so naturally there were a lot of people around her. Some came to learn talents, some to gossip, and some just went to where there were many people.

"Then you are amazing."

"Yes, yes, he can do it at such a young age."

"Do you have a favorite husband?"

When Hua Yunyun heard someone asking her this, she looked in Lu Li's direction embarrassedly, with a shy look on her face, which made everyone misunderstand her.

However, Lu Li in the distance always felt that there was a look observing them. He followed his sixth sense and looked over, and sure enough, he saw Hua Yunyun surrounded by people.

Seeing that everyone was laughing so hard and looking at her from time to time, Lu Li naturally understood what Hua Yunyun had done, and immediately hugged Li Han over.

"What are you doing?" Li Han was watching the master beside her explaining the important things to pay attention to in embroidery when she was picked up by Lu Li.

When the people in the distance saw this scene, they turned their attention to Hua Yunyun.

Hua Yunyun was a little embarrassed for a moment. She didn't expect that Lu Li would be so cruel to let her embarrass herself in front of so many people.

Fortunately, at this time, the host came on stage and started the second round of speeches.

"Now, please invite our contestants to come up and explain their composition ideas to everyone one by one." Li Han wanted to avoid it when he heard this. He didn't know what he was thinking at the time, but he thought of this topic.

If Lu Li heard this, he would probably laugh at her again.

Besides, she had no idea what to do. She just suddenly saw Lu Li and remembered everything at once.
