Rongzheng invited Bai Shengchun's family to sit in the hall, and Ruyi brought tea.
Bai Shengchun's family just saw Mei.
She was wearing a green robe and a pale skirt.
She looked much better than when she was at home, and she really liked her.
Rongzheng smiled and invited Bai Shengchun's family to have tea, and then asked about things in the fields.
"How is the paddy field being groomed?
Has the rice been planted?"
Bai Shengchun's family said with a smile: "Not yet, the seedlings have just grown, and it will take some time before they can be planted."
Rongzheng was not familiar with planting crops, but she only knew that it went smoothly, so she felt relieved.
Bai Shengchun's family told Rong Zheng about the weir pond not far from their farm.
Bai Shengchun's family smiled and said: "Our family is jealous and wants to contract the weir and pond, so we let the slaves come in to ask for the lady's permission."
Rongzheng was a little curious and asked quickly: "Didn't Uncle Bai say last time that Yantang belongs to Gongzhong?"
Bai Shengchun's family member smiled and said: "It belongs to the public school, but the head of the village wanted to find someone to take care of it.
The man in our family was also an honest man, but the boy named Lei Bo found the head of the family and told him that it would be better to find someone to take care of it.
Miss, let’s discuss it and see if we can take over the business and make more profits.”
Rong Zheng was a little surprised, never expecting that it was Lei Bo's idea.
“Approximately how much does it cost?”
Bai Shengchun's family said: "The village chief said it would cost thirty taels of silver a year.
If the contract lasts for ten years, it will only cost two hundred and fifty taels."
Rong Zheng said: "I have seen that weir pond before.
It is indeed not small and the water is good.
We can raise some fish and shrimps, plant some lotus roots, water chestnuts and the like.
These can be exchanged for money.
I don't know how much we can have in a year. future” Bai Shengchun's family smiled and said: "That boy Lei Bo said that he was afraid that he would not be able to get his capital back in the first and second years.
In the third year, he can start making money."
Rong Zheng thought to himself, this Lei Bo is indeed a man of great success.
Not to mention the Bai family, even she was tempted by it.
But she had no sense of self, so where to get the more than two hundred taels of silver seemed to be the biggest problem.
The Bai family definitely can't come up with this money, otherwise they wouldn't let the Bai family mother and daughter make this trip.
It would be nice if she could have a business and save a private house now.
When the members of the Bai Shengchun family saw that Rong Zheng had been drinking tea with her head lowered and had not spoken for a long time, she couldn't help but feel anxious.
Heart way.
Could it be that Rong Zheng didn't agree?
She was a little girl, only thirteen years old.
He didn't even talk about the kiss.
He must have done nothing.
He must have no idea.
But she still had to tell Rong Zheng about this, and she had to pay to get it.
Rong Zheng thought about it for a long time.
Then she put down the tea cup in her hand and said briskly: "Auntie, you know what I said.
This thing can be done.
It's just money."
She looked slightly shy and her cheeks were red.
"Auntie, you know that I am a boudoir."
"Girl, I don't have much property in my name.

I don't have any place to save money.
If I can grit my teeth and scrape some money, it will end up being hundreds."
Although the Bai Shengchun family had expected it.
But he still felt a little disappointed, and said forcefully: "Miss, even if you don't tell me, this slave knows about it.
Let's figure out the money thing ourselves."
Rong Zheng thought to herself that if the Bai family wasn't really in trouble and couldn't come up with the money, why bother looking for her again.
A gentle smile appeared on her face, and she said firmly: "It's up to me to think of a solution, maybe it's easier.
Besides, you are my mother, so I have to take good care of you."
Bai Shengchun's family felt reassured by Rong Zheng's words, and their smiles became even brighter, and they hurriedly said, "It would be great if Miss could help me find a solution.
You know, we" Rongzheng patted Bai Shengchun's family's hand and said, "Auntie, I understand, it was my fault that I was ignorant and didn't take care of you a few years ago.
Now we just need to work together to take care of the reed pond, and it will be done within two or three years."
It’s a different story again.”
The Bai Shengchun family smiled with tears in their eyes.
Rongzheng was filled with gratitude to Bai Shengchun's family, and grateful that she did not go directly to Ma to discuss the matter, but instead went to him.
She wanted to take good care of the things her mother left her.
After Bai Shengchun's family left, Rongzheng really fell into a difficult situation.
Last time, she collected the dowry for Ziying and the money sent by her father.
How could she have the nerve to ask her father about the weir pond this time?
Without financial power, it is really difficult to accomplish anything.
Rong Zheng couldn't sleep at night because of raising money.
As a last resort, she asked Zi Su to open a small box under the chest of drawers.
The things inside are the treasures and toys given to her by her maternal grandfather over the years.
These are not family items, they are her personal property and are not listed in the booklet here.
When Rongzheng was choosing, she picked out two chrysanthemum hairpins made of red gold and red treasures that were not needed yet, and she also picked out a prawn whisker bracelet.
Guessing that it wasn't enough, I picked out an emerald ring.
Several items filled the box.
"You can help me take them out tomorrow and find a reliable pawn shop to help me pawn these."
“Miss, I really want to be a part of it” "Otherwise, where would the money come from?
I almost did this for Ziying's dowry last time.
Fortunately, dad saved me, so I won't bother him with this matter this time.
I can just handle it myself.
These things are of good quality. , it should be a good price.”
Zisu took it.
Although the thing was not heavy, her heart felt heavy.
Rong Zheng saw the sad look on her face and asked quickly: "Do you have anything else to say?"
Zi Su whispered: "Miss, I think this matter is important.
I'm afraid it won't be good to hide it from the master.
You'd better tell him."
Rong Zheng said: "It's natural to tell.
But we have to have an idea about this matter ourselves.
She from Bai Shengchun's family came directly to me, naturally thinking that I can handle this matter.
I think it has happened before.
She asked her wife for similar things, but she didn’t get much support, so I have to pay more attention to it.
I’ve thought about it carefully and it’s worth it.”
When Zi Su heard what Rong Zheng said, she knew that the young lady had her own opinions, so she stopped interrupting.

At the beginning of noon the next day, Zi Su came back and gave Rong Zheng three silver notes.
Rong Zheng glanced at it a few times and found that each one was worth one hundred taels.
Rongzheng nodded happily and said, "I knew these were good things and worth some money."
Zi Su said: "If the red treasure on the hairpin wasn't big enough, the beads on the bracelet were southern beads, and the ring finger was made of emerald.
The hairpin and bracelet are both solid, it would be good to get a hundred taels."
Rong Zheng sighed: "Grandma has always given me the best things.
As a granddaughter, I failed to live up to expectations and failed to keep what she gave.
I hope I can redeem them as soon as possible."
She collected the pawn tickets carefully. alright.
Rong Zheng gave another one hundred tael silver note to Zisu and said, "Find someone to help me exchange this silver note for a smaller amount."
Zisu agreed to do it.
Rongzheng said again: "We will go to Lutang again tomorrow, please make preparations."
Zisu agreed and then left to find someone to change the banknote.
Rongzheng thought for a while, then turned around and went to Ma's yard
