In order to be fair, each family would send someone. The embroidery of the top 100 girls would be displayed at the entrance of the county government.

This was also to prevent the referee from favoritism. More importantly, the county magistrate did not want to do bad things. If this female arts competition could be held once a year, not only would it speed up the development of business, but it would also promote the development of the population. This would be his political achievement, so naturally, he could not leave a mark.

Thus, with the people as witnesses, these embroiderers did not dare to show favoritism.

Soon, the first match began.

The top 30 people would be ranked, and those after the 30th place would be eliminated.

After five rounds, the rankings would be re-ranked. The top 100 would receive the corresponding rewards.

“The topic of this competition is pear blossoms.” “Ladies, just show me your strongest embroidery skills.”

“I hereby declare the commencement.”

When the girls on the stage began to compete, it was quite lively below. Although the bailiffs shouted for silence, the people could not help but ask each other about the identities of the girls.

The county magistrate had originally wanted to increase the population, so he was naturally happy that these girls and boys would take a fancy to each other. However, the high platform was very high and far away. The boys from afar would not affect the reputation of the girls. It was killing two birds with one stone.

“There seem to be quite a few girls from the rich families in the county.” Madam Liu’s eyes were not wrong. She could tell at a glance that the girls who went up were dressed well. Although the girls from the countryside would try their best to dress well for this competition, a family with a really difficult situation would not buy expensive clothes for such a competition.

Besides, the girls in the county had more money, so it was normal for them to dress better.

In this way, there was a clear distinction.

“Mother, I saw the Song family.” Madam Zhang suddenly said. Her eyes were filled with joy that could not be hidden. Chu Qingxiang was a little shy but she tried her best to sit up straight and pretend to be calm.

If one ignored the small movements she made when she looked to the side from time to time, it would make her look even better.

“Oh? Where?” Madam Liu hurriedly asked. Madam Zhang pointed out the Song family not far away excitedly.

This time, Song Lu also came. He sat in the crowd, looking tall.

“This time, the Song family seems to have a girl of the right age to participate in the competition. Qingxiang, perform well.” Madam Liu was a self-reliant person. Although her eldest granddaughter had been given to the Song family, the Song family was not as well-off as the Chu family. In order to support Song Lu’s studies, they had spent their remaining wealth. Now, the Song family was barely able to survive. Fortunately, Song Lu passed the Elementary Scholar examination this year and had a quota for tax-free land. The Song family did not have to pay taxes this year, so they were barely able to survive.

Under such circumstances, the Song family wanted to take advantage of Song Lu’s fame to find a good marriage for him.

Song Lu could be considered to have excellent character and was good in his studies, but as the saying goes, a poor scholar is a poor scholar. He had just become an Elementary Scholar, and his family had spent a lot of money.

However, in the end, the Song Family agreed to exchange the invitation card with the Chu Family, and Chu Qingxiang and Song Lu’s marriage was settled.

“Grandma, I’ll do my best.” Chu Qingxiang’s eyes flashed with determination. She had a strong personality and was good at judging the situation. She naturally knew the importance of this competition..
