Chapter 47 Reason

  Chu and Liu were also a little dazed at the moment, she didn't expect her son to give her such a big shock.

  Yes, that’s right, it’s fright.

  From the surprise at the beginning, after slowly thinking about it, her joy turned into worry.

  The reason is very simple, just look at the reactions of the two daughters-in-law.

  If my family wants to get a ranking like this, the other girls in that clan must also want to get a ranking.

   She thought about it, and there were seven or eight people of the right age in the clan.

  These people will compete for this ranking when the time comes, so next, should they all start learning female celebrities, tea art, paper-cutting and cooking.

   Female celebrities and cooking skills are okay.

  Basically, every household will teach these two things to their daughters. As for the abilities of specific girls, they are uneven.

   As for paper-cutting and tea art, she is the only one in the entire Chu family.

  When the patriarch heard the news, he would definitely ask her to teach the girls in the clan.

  Chu Liu felt that he had been cheated by the third child.

  Where will she have free time in the future.

  Chu Liu looked at Chu Heng with resentful eyes, "My third son, you can't spread the news. I haven't seen any county magistrate do such a thing in the past few decades."

   There were not many reward orders in the past few decades.

  After all, the county magistrate doesn't care about the talents of the girls in the county. He only needs to take care of the entire county. With so many official duties, he can't control the girls.

  Chu Heng felt the resentment in his mother's eyes, and thought to himself, he will be an official sooner or later, so it's not a bad thing to let his mother get used to such a big scene.

  So he was unmoved, that was called a calm, "This is rumored from Beijing."

   "In February of this year in Beijing, Princess Wen Yi held a Hundred Flowers Banquet in the capital to test and teach the girls' talents, and those who won the ranking would be rewarded by the princess."

   "And when the emperor heard the news, he also rewarded the winning lady on a whim."

   "Therefore, early spring in the capital has led to many marriages."

   "The emperor was so happy that he praised Princess Wen Yi aloud in the Golden Luan Hall, saying that women with high skills are beautiful."

   "The emperor said so, those young ladies are easy to marry."

   When Chu Heng talked about the emperor, he was also very indifferent, but everyone else in the room was fascinated by it and didn't notice it.

   What he didn't say was that the emperor was not only happy to promote the happy event of marriage, but the emperor was happy because the more couples got married, the more offspring would be born in the future.

   And a large number of people is the highest manifestation of national prosperity. Whether it is joining the army or becoming an official, you are not afraid of not having enough people, and you can have more choices.

   Especially soldiers, the more people there are, the stronger the military power is, and this is merit.

   "After this incident was reported in the capital, the officials below rushed to imitate it. Not only our county, but I believe other counties will hold this competition."

   "It's just that the content of the competition changes according to local characteristics."

   "Our county is rich in tea, so tea art has become one of the contents of the competition."

   "Our county has a custom of paper-cutting, and paper-cutting is also popular in other places, and it has become a specialty of Nanchang County. Therefore, for the future paper-cutting inheritance and survival skills, the county magistrate has decided on the paper-cutting project."

   "As for cooking..."

  Ye Muyu noticed that when Chu Heng said this, he paused suspiciously, and subconsciously glanced at her.

  She looked puzzled.

  Thinking to herself, what is this man trying to cheat her on again?

  Chu Heng continued: "My son-in-law once said that if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first grasp his stomach."
