Chapter 499: The Cannon Fodder Cousin of the Male Protagonist of the Civil Service Examination (21) (Additional update for Cai Ni~)

Under the leadership of the village chief, the villagers of Xujia Village cleaned up the ruins of the nunnery before the Chinese New Year. They also pulled out the weeds from the mud, loosened the soil twice, fertilized it once, and waited for the spring. Plant flowers.

Xu Yin inspected a circle of greenhouses converted from nunneries on the spot. She was very satisfied with the labor efficiency of the villagers and asked Xu Kui to settle their wages.

She plans to divide the greenhouse into two areas: one for growing flowers that are not cold-tolerant, and one for growing vegetables.

However, after the beginning of spring, each family can grow seasonal vegetables on their own land, in front of and behind their houses, and the greenhouses are temporarily borrowed to grow flowers.

Plant a few flowers that require care, such as camellias, peonies, orchids, phalaenopsis, and epiphyllums.

The elegant night-flower scented perfume has always been her favorite.

It would be a dream come true if you could mix up an epiphyllum perfume yourself.

After planning the planting in the greenhouse, Xu Yin went to the Chaishan Mountain that had been cleared a few years ago but had not yet been sown.

She asked Xu Kui to write it down: "This mountain will be called Spice No. 2 Mountain from now on, and it will be all planted with lavender; this is Mountain No. 3, and all will be planted with rosemary."

Because these two are used in the largest amounts, whether it is essential oils or perfumes, lavender and rosemary are classics.

Hill No. 4 plans to grow some auxiliary ingredients that are not in high demand but are excellent for flavoring, such as lemon, tangerine, cardamom, chamomile, geranium, patchouli, sage, etc.

As for the spice mountain that was opened and has already been harvested, it is naturally the No. 1 mountain.

Go back and re-divide the area, remove lavender and rosemary; expand the planting area for roses, jasmine and vetiver; the top of the mountain is still a high-quality cultivation area.

Xu Kui always felt a little ungentlemanly when he saw his girl numbering the Spice Mountain with 1, 2, 3, and 4.

I remembered that in those days, any spice in the shop would have to be written for several days before it came up with a sophisticated fragrance name, so I carefully suggested:

"Girl, after these flowers and plants are extracted into essential oils, they are mainly sold to those rich ladies and ladies. They may not be literate, but they like elegant names. In my opinion, it is better to choose an elegant name together. Name?"

Xu Yin said nothing: "Okay, I'll leave this task to you."

She was too busy to waste time on naming the mountain.

Xu Kui:

I didnt expect that the girl would think so highly of him.

He fell to his knees with a plop, gratefully kowtowing to Xu Yin.

Xu Yin:

Press the forehead with a headache.

"If you keep doing this, I will decide on the names of the mountains one, two, three and four?"

Xu Kui stood up immediately and dusted off his trousers.

Afraid of being too late, the girl took away the naming rights, and from then on these mountains were called No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4.

After taking over this important task, Xu Kuicai realized belatedly: Although he knew a few words, he only knew a few words. If he was asked to recite poems and compose poems in words, he would not have the strength!

But the task has been taken over, and he will hand it back... Firstly, he is afraid that the girl will think that he is not capable and still accept the porcelain work; secondly, he is afraid that the girl will give these mountains one, two, three or four names on the spot.

No! He must give these precious mountains, which are related to Xu's spice shop's eternal legacy, an elegant and nice name. So, after arranging the normal operation of the greenhouse base of the fragrance house, I took the time to go back to Xu Mansion and asked his father for help.

Dad, who in our family knows how to recite poems and compose poems?

Why do you ask this?

I need help coming up with some nice, elegant names.

The old housekeeper stroked his beard and shook his head: "I'm afraid no one can help you with this matter."

The sad news came that the master and his wife had died in Xiangcheng. The lady who was stationed in the mansion to teach girls music, chess, calligraphy and painting was worried that everyone in the mansion would have to wear sacks, wear mourning and white gauze, so she paid her salary and left that day.

At present, apart from the girls, he is the most literate person in the house.

"But dad is just like you." The old housekeeper patted his son on the shoulder: "At most, he is familiar with the Three Character Classic. I was lucky enough to learn it from the old man, but he can't do anything else...eh? The new accountant has good handwriting. Maybe he has something in his heart, why don't you go ask him? However, he doesn't speak very well, otherwise he wouldn't have had his face cut like that, and I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to think of a good name... "

Xu Kui thought of treating a dead horse as a living doctor. What if Fang Zheng'er had read the Eight Classics and could recite poems and compose poems? So I went to the accountant for advice.

Sikong picked his ears: "...what do you want to name it?"

"Mountain!" Xu Kui replied loudly, "After the girl cleaned the four Chai Mountains, they planted spice flowers. One mountain was all planted with lavender. When the flowers bloomed, it looked like a sea of purple mist, as beautiful as a fairyland; one mountain was all planted with lavender. The rosemary with small white flowers is also very beautiful; there are two more, with many flowers planted together, but I thought, calling it Baihua Mountain is not appropriate enough, after all, there are not so many varieties..."

Lala described to Sikong the four hills where spice flowers were grown, and finally pleaded: "Brother Sikong, if you can, please help me. If Brother Sikong encounters any difficulties in the future, I will do my best to help him." Give it a try..."

Sikong was so entangled by him that he picked up the brush and wrote a few words on the paper. He blew on the wet ink and handed it to Xu Kui: "Take it if you don't mind!"

Xu Kui took it in his hand and examined it carefully before saying with a grimace: "Brother Sikong, your cursive handwriting is really crazy. I can't recognize a single word..."

Sikong:

Had no choice but to write another one.

After reading it, Xu Kui chuckled and said, "I can recognize it if it is written like this...Quefeng, Suyue, Qiuxiang, Qunfang, what a good name!"

He clasped his fists at Sikong to express his gratitude, then put the piece of paper in his arms like a treasure, and went back to the other courtyard to deliver the errand without stopping.

Xu Yin received the four mountain names he presented and raised her eyebrows, not bad! Quite cultured.

Especially the name Quefeng. Purple was also called the color of Quefeng's head in ancient times. When patches of purple meet on this mountain, isn't it the name Quefeng?

I cant tell, Xu Kui, your cultural attainments are not low! Why dont you continue studying and get a degree?

Xu Kuisheng was afraid that the girl would really pay for him to go to the academy to study and take exams, so he was so frightened that he quickly confessed Sikong:

Girl, to be honest, I didnt come up with these names for you. It was Sikong, who is the accountant in our house, who came up with these names for me

It turns out its him

Xu Yin was quite impressed by the new accountant.

Mainly because of that face, it was so damaged that it was impossible to see.

In addition, the man seems to be very timid. He always lowers his head when speaking and his voice is very soft. I didnt expect that in addition to being good at calculating accounts and keeping accounts, I was also quite artistic.

Since you are so thoughtful about naming those mountains, lets name them!

From then on, the hilltop full of lavender was called Qifeng, the hilltop full of rosemary was called Suyue, the hilltop planted with dozens of spices was called Qiuxiang, and the No. 1 hilltop of the boutique flower cultivation base was called Qunfang.
