Chapter 1445 Hairpin Flower (Reward for the book friend "Manbao's Ideal")
Manbao didn't refute, which was considered as his agreement.
She comforted Zhou Lijun, "Don't worry, I'll sell it after I find the bad guy."
Although she felt guilty about selling potted flowers, she was not at all guilty about selling flower branches. Her flowers were very beautiful, more beautiful than the flowers of the same variety now.
The flowers last forever, and the fragrance can be strong or light, but it is also long-lasting and lingering. As long as you want it, she can find one for you.
So Manbao was very satisfied with the three rows of flower pots in front of her, and decided to pick the branches and bring them to the palace tomorrow, so that she could save money on gifts.
Manbao also knows how to wear flowers in his hair.
Zheng was a very interesting and girlish person. When she was in the countryside, every spring, when they were tired of doing homework at Bai's house and ran to the garden to play, she liked to cut flowers and put them in the hair of her three children.
Manbao doesn't like big flowers, she prefers smaller ones and thinks they look better when worn in her hair.
So the next day, after waking up, washing up and eating, she squatted in the corridor with scissors and carefully selected the flowers that suited her.
Bai Shan still had to go to school, carrying a school basket. Seeing that she was not in a hurry, he reached out to take her scissors, cut off a light yellow peony, and pinned it in her hair, smiling and saying, "This one suits you best."
Zhou Lijun and Zhou Liru, who had been reluctant to leave, nodded repeatedly, "Yes, this flower looks best on my aunt."
Manbao then handed them the scissors, turned around and ran back to the house to look in the mirror, and shouted to the two of them as he ran, "You can cut one and wear it too."
When Zhou Lijun and Zhou Liru heard this, they immediately became happy and started to choose carefully.
Manbao ran back to the house and looked at himself in the mirror carefully. He was indeed satisfied.
She ran out and saw Bai Shan and the others standing there to join in the fun, so she asked with a smile, "Do you want to wear a hairpin?"
Bai Shan immediately shook his head.
Although men in the current dynasty also considered wearing flowers in their hair as a sign of beauty, but...
Bai Shan still doesn't like to wear flowers in her hair, so forget it.
Bai Jilang also refused, "We have horse riding lessons today."
So today Bai Jilang is going to the Imperial College on horseback.
Zhou Lixue and the others were very interested and also picked a flower to put on their heads. Bai Shuping looked at them with some envy.
Bai Shan turned around and asked him, "What color do you like?"
Bai Shuping hesitated for a moment and turned to look at his parents standing beside him.
Daji nodded slightly to him, and Bai Shuping hesitantly pointed to a multi-colored peony.
Bai Shan cut it off and gave it to him.
So a group of teenagers went to school dressed up.
Because she was thinking of giving it as a gift, when she was doing the deal with the seller yesterday, Manbao specifically requested that the flowers must be particularly beautiful and bright, and there must be enough branches in a pot, and she also asked that they choose according to the colors she listed.
There are many requirements, but if she only requires the current appearance of the flowers without requiring genetic maintenance and heritability, the seller can easily meet her requirements.
So there are at least three flowers in each pot, and they are all growing well. The most beautiful pot even has five large peonies, and each flower has a different color and shape.
If the whole pot were taken out, it would definitely cause a sensation in the whole capital.
But the seller specifically pointed out that this kind of flower is disposable and the flowering period is not long, only seven days. After seven days, the flowers will wither, and the peony branches will not even live until next year. After the flowers wither, they will grow crooked and mostly wither on their own.
So this flower has another nickname called Seven Days Flower. Once planted, it only survives for seven days, so it is not expensive at all.
The seeds are grown after genetic sequencing, and each one is accurate.
Manbao liked them very much. She admired them for a while, then picked out a big red peony that she thought was most suitable for her husband, cut it, and carefully brought it to her husband in the study.
Mr. Zhuang was tending to his orchids. When he saw Manbao bringing such a large peony flower, he was silent for a moment and then said, "Put it on the table. I will wear it as a hairpin when I think it is suitable."
Manbao insisted, "Sir, let me put it on for you."
Mr. Zhuang was reluctant, but he couldn't beat Manbao, so after some persuasion from her, he finally put it on his head.
Mr. Zhuang had a big red flower on his head. Manbao narrowed his eyes with joy and praised him, "It looks very beautiful."
Mr. Zhuang felt that there might be something wrong with this child's aesthetic taste.
Manbao had already run out with a pair of scissors in her hand. She cut off all the flowers in the pots, cut off the long branches, and picked out three. She gave one to Daji's wife, Meng, and gave the other two to her, asking her to deliver them to Erliu Lane to Old Lady Liu and Zheng.
She held the rest in her arms.
Xiang Mingxue had just returned from a stroll outside. He was still walking slowly, as if not trying to exert any effort at all. Seeing the pale yellow flower in Manbao's hair, he smiled and said, "When I came back, I saw the Imperial Guards coming to pick you up. I guess they're waiting outside the door now."
Manbao held an armful of flowers and asked him, "Do you want one?"
Unlike Bai Shan and the others, Xiang Mingxue also likes to wear flowers in his hair. He glanced at the flowers in her arms, smiled and nodded, "Okay, well, I want this purple one."
He didn't want Manbao to bother pulling it out, so he just took the scissors and cut it off from the beginning. Then he held it in his hand and asked with a smile, "Do you want me to help you carry the medicine box out?"
Manbao nodded repeatedly.
Xiang Mingxue took the flowers and carried the medicine box to send Manbao out the door.
The guards on horseback looked down and saw Manbao coming out with an armful of peonies, their mouths slightly open.
Manbao met their gaze and looked hesitantly at the flowers in her arms.
Xiang Mingxue had already put the medicine box on the car and turned to say to her, "Let's go quickly. You must hold on to these flowers. The Crown Princess and the princesses are waiting for your flowers."
So don’t give it away to everyone you meet.
Manbao thought it made sense, so she ignored the looks from the guards, stepped on the horse stool and got into the carriage, carefully protecting the flowers in her arms to prevent them from being touched.
When they arrived at the palace gate, the guards stared at Manbao and took a long time to look away.
Manbao was holding the flowers. A guard saw her dragging a medicine box and simply took the medicine box for her and sent her into the palace.
The East Palace servants waiting inside immediately stepped forward to take the medicine box, and one of them said, "The Empress is already waiting in the East Palace. Doctor Zhou will come with me."
When the group arrived at the East Palace, the Crown Princess had already changed her clothes and was waiting. She asked someone to bring out several pots of flowers, which she contributed so that they could enjoy them together.
Originally, she thought her flowers were pretty good and planned to ask Zhou Man to pick one out to wear in her hairpin, but when she looked up and saw the flowers in Manbao's arms, she opened her mouth in surprise.
"This flower..."
Manbao came forward holding the flowers, "My Lady, what do you think of my flowers?"
The Crown Princess nodded blankly. Looking at the shapes and colors of the flowers, they were all famous species. Some of the multi-colored flowers were so dazzling that she had never even seen them before.
See you at 10pm
