However, Li Xiuzhu did not let Yunshuang expand the Yunzhu Building, but instead adopted a hunger marketing approach.

Moreover, if the facility is expanded, management requirements will become more stringent, which would be unfriendly to Fu Yunshuang.

If you don’t love your sister-in-law, who will?

Of course, this is off topic. Su Xiaoxiao saw that the names of several candidates were written down, and then she said, "Let's start counting the votes from the first table on our left, the Marquis' family."

Li Xiuzhu glanced at Li Biyao and said without hesitation, "Princess Wenjie."

Although she is called Li Biyao at home, she must say her title of princess to others.

"One vote for Princess Wenjie."

As soon as the person counting the votes finished, the person recording the votes drew a line under Princess Wen Jie's name.

Xu Miaojin, who was attacked by Li Xiuzhu, was about to speak when she heard Li Liuli suddenly shout, "Wait a minute, shouldn't we cast two votes for the two contestants in our family?"

"Hmm~" Su Xiaoxiao felt numb. She was really afraid of this Princess Wenhua. She didn't know about anything else, but this title was definitely wrong. She was almost like a trouble-making princess.

However, as the representative of the organizer, she naturally had to speak.

Su Xiaoxiao stood up and said in a low voice with embarrassment: "That being said, it has always been arranged this way. This..."

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao's forced accent, Li Liuli understood what Su Xiaoxiao meant. It meant that I'm in a difficult situation and you should not make things difficult for me.

But who is Li Liuli? Li Liuli used to play the role of a pitiful person.

"Hey, it's all my fault for embarrassing Little Sister, but there have never been two people at a table before."

"Rules depend on the person. If we divide them like this, then friends will have to sit at separate tables when they meet at poetry gatherings in the future."

"If couples want to attend in the future, won't they also have to sit at separate tables?"

"Could it be that the little girl doesn't want to see us with our husbands because she doesn't like men?"

I don't like men? How come I don't know this? But think about those stinky men, this...

No matter what, this matter must not escalate, otherwise she will no longer have money from the first place in the list.

"Princess, you are joking. Xiaoxiao likes men, so I naturally have no intention of breaking up the princess and her husband from sitting at the same table."

"As for what the princess said, we can all sit together, but we will only have one less vote."

Li Liuli interrupted and asked, "One vote?"

"Little sister, do you know that one vote could mean you miss out on the first place?"

"And if everyone who came together sat at separate tables, wouldn't we have several votes at once?"

Su Xiaoxiao felt like her brain was stuck. Although it seemed outrageous, it also made sense, as if she was being manipulated by a pua.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't want to struggle anymore, so she sighed and asked, "What do you mean, Princess?"

Li Liuli heard this and said, "In my opinion, each contestant should have one vote."

"And contestants cannot vote for themselves."

"After all, this is a poetry gathering for literati. Most of those who can compete have literary talent and can better judge the good from the bad."

"And the rest of us are just appreciators at best."

"This way, good friends can chat at the same table when they meet, and couples don't have to sit at separate tables when they come together."

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Li Chengyu when she heard that, and when she saw that Li Chengyu didn't say anything, she looked at everyone.

"Does anyone have a different opinion?"

What Li Liuli said is right. Although there may be a few fewer votes, it is also fairer.

Of course, there is no absolute fairness in the world, and being able to achieve this is already very good.

Although Li Xiuzhu didn't care, he would not ruin his wife's business at this time.

At this time, Xu Miaojin, who was sitting below, suddenly stood up and said in support, "I think what the princess said makes sense. I support it."

With Xu Miaojin taking the lead, naturally people would give her face.

Li Biyao smiled upon hearing this, and without caring about the nepotism, she said directly: "I vote for my husband, Champion Marquis Li Xiuzhu."

Su Xiaoxiao was not surprised. She waited until the singer finished singing before looking at Xu Miaojin.

"Miss Miaojin, please."

"I vote for the Marquis, too."

"Champion Hou gets another vote."

Li Xiuzhu was slightly startled when he saw the vertical stroke under his name on the blackboard, but then he understood.

Well, in ancient times, tickets were recorded according to the correct number.

But it must be said that this method was the counting method with the least errors before electronic calculations became popular.

Some of the wisdom of the ancients will become obsolete, while some will still be useful after hundreds of years.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The counting of votes continued, but Li Xiuzhu was not paying much attention.

He is already in a crushing position, and no one would risk damaging their own reputation by suppressing him.

As expected, Li Xiuzhu won first place, Xu Miaojin second place, and Li Biyao third place.

Li Xiuzhu's first place candidate received 25 votes.

The second place Xu Miaojin received six votes and Li Biyao received five votes.

"Today's top prize has been announced. Please follow Xiaoxiao to the dining hall."

The group followed Su Xiaoxiao all the way, turning left and right several times before arriving at the dining hall of the palace.

It is not an exaggeration to call it a pavilion.

It's no trouble at all to seat dozens of people.

If they were arranged in rows, it would be possible for hundreds of people to sit down.

At this time, Li Liuli said to Li Xiuzhu in a low voice with a bit of displeasure: "Husband, do you like Su Xiaoxiao so much? You have been staring at her buttocks all the way, aren't you satisfied?"

Li Xiuzhu's face suddenly turned dark and he glared at Li Liuli.

However, Li Liuli was not afraid of him at all. She looked at him staring at her, feeling pitiful and full of self-pity.

"Alas, after all, I don't know how to cherish it after I get it."

"Husband...you weren't like this before."

Hiss, don't you know how I treated you before? Is it the middle letter that's missing? "If you keep being sarcastic, I'll show you how I'll deal with you when I get back."

After thinking for a while, Li Xiuzhu explained in a low voice: "Don't you find it strange? This Su Xiaoxiao seems to be quite familiar with the Prince Jin's Mansion."

"And this time the poetry gathering is held at the Prince of Jin's residence, so guess what the relationship between Su Xiaoxiao and your third brother is? Is she your third brother's subordinate? Or your third sister-in-law?"

Li Liuli glanced at Li Xiuzhu strangely and asked, "Don't you know that Hongxiu Garden belongs to my third brother?"

"Of course Su Xiaoxiao is my third brother's subordinate."

...Hiss, how come I don't know? Um, everyone knows this?

Everyone knows that I have been trying to figure this out for so long? The clown is actually me? Suddenly, Li Xiuzhu felt that he could really dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes.

Li Xiuzhu laughed awkwardly.

"You know, I don't pay much attention to these things. Besides, a prince and a brothel, I don't dare to think about it."

Li Liuli nodded in understanding and said, "Speaking of which, Su Xiaoxiao is also a pitiful person."

"Her father used to be an official in the capital. He was honest and incorruptible and was trusted by the emperor. Later, he was transferred to be the governor of the Suzhou and Hangzhou salt transport..."
