Chapter 250 Song Lu is also here
In order not to lose the fairness, there will be people in every family, and the embroidery of the girl who has won the top 100 female celebrities will be displayed at the gate of the government office in the county.
This is also to avoid the referee's favoritism. It is more because the county magistrate is unwilling to do bad things with good intentions. If this female artist competition can be held every year, it will not only accelerate business development, but also promote population development. This is his political achievement, so naturally he cannot Leave something to talk about.
Therefore, with the testimony of the common people, these embroidered ladies dare not show favoritism.
Soon, the first game begins.
Out of 100 people, the top 30 will be ranked, and those after 30 will be eliminated.
After five rounds, re-ranking, the top 100 will get corresponding rewards.
"The topic of this competition is pear blossoms."
"Girls, just show your strongest embroidery skills."
"Now, announce the beginning."
When the girls on the stage were all blushing and began to compete, it was also quite lively below. Although the yamen servants shouted to be quiet, they couldn't help asking each other about the identities of the girls.
Originally the county magistrate wanted to increase the population, so these girls and boys were naturally happy to see each other. However, the high platform was high and far away, and the boys in the distance would not affect the reputation of the girls, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
"There seem to be quite a few girls from rich households in the county above." Chu Liu's eyes are really good, and he can tell at a glance that the girls who go up are well dressed, although the girls from the country try to dress as well as possible when they come to the competition this time. But families in real difficulties will not buy a set of expensive clothes just for such a competition.
Besides, the girls in the county already have more money, so it is normal for them to dress better.
In this way, the distinction is clear.
"Mother, I saw the Song family." Zhang suddenly said, with joy in her eyes, which she couldn't hide, while Chu Qingxiang was a little shy but tried to straighten her chest, pretending to be calm.
If you ignore her small movements of looking to one side from time to time, it will be more similar.
"Oh? Where?" Mrs. Chu and Liu hurriedly asked, and Mrs. Zhang couldn't wait to point out the Song family not far away.
Song Lu also came this time, sitting in the crowd, looking tall and straight.
"This time the Song family seems to have a girl of the right age to participate in the competition, Qingxiang, do a good job." Chu Liu's temperament is self-improvement. Lu's studies have consumed the rest of the family's money, and now the Song family can barely afford it. Fortunately, this year Song Lu was admitted as a scholar and has a quota of tax-free land. The Song family does not have to pay taxes and grains this year, so it is barely easier.
Under such circumstances, the Song family showed Prime Minister Song Lu his wife because they wanted to take advantage of Song Lu's popularity and find him a good marriage.
Song Lu can be regarded as excellent in both character and learning, but as the saying goes, a poor scholar is a poor scholar. He has just been admitted to a scholar, and his family has spent money. If he wants to continue the exam, he is afraid that he will not be able to go after spending money. He can only temporarily put aside this year. When I got the opportunity to take the exam, I found a job as a teacher in Lin County, and I have been doing it for more than a month now.
Although he was short of money, many people liked him because of his good character.
In the end, the Song family agreed to exchange Geng Tie with the Chu family, and the marriage between Chu Qingxiang and Song Lu was thus settled.
"Grandma, I will try my best." Chu Qingxiang's eyes flashed a look of certainty. She has a strong temper, but she is more sensitive to the situation, so she naturally knows the importance of this competition.
