The first sentence introduces us to two characters of the story, a florist and a soldier. The florist is also the narrator of the story and he tells us about his encounter with a soldier. In the first sentence, the soldier is introduced. The next sentence is P which tells us more about the soldier who has just been introduced. The next sentence is Q because it tells us the purpose of the soldier's visit to the florist. Moreover, the other two sentences (S and R) start with 'He then..' and 'And...' which means that they must be preceded by some event. Sentence Q tells us that the soldier gives flowers to his wife every Friday. The next sentence would be S, in which we are told that he places an order for a whole year (i.e., 52 Fridays). The last sentence would be R which is a continuation of the order that is mentioned in sentence S. Therefore, the correct sequence is PQSR.
