Chapter 83 Make plans early

"My eldest brother gave me Tingsong Garden. I have long wanted to embroider a purse to give to my eldest brother. However, I am clumsy and cannot embroider. Sister Qingwan happened to give me one, so I will borrow flowers and offer it to my eldest brother." Wei Ruodao

.

Wei Ruo smiled brightly, then turned and left.

She didn't care whether it was appropriate or not to transfer gifts given to her to other people. Anyway, she was a girl from the countryside. They would understand some rules if they didn't understand them, right?

In short, she didn't dare to accept Wei Qingwan's things. Who knew if she was setting her up? Although she couldn't imagine what Wei Qingwan could do with a small purse, but as long as she didn't give her a chance, her

The abacus can only come to nothing.

Besides, how could she use something like her purse to offset her hatred for slandering her and wrongfully accusing her?

When Wei Yichen saw clearly what he was holding in his hand, he wanted to call Wei Ruo back, but Wei Ruo had already left.

"Wanwan, is this what you want to give to Ruo'er?" Wei Yichen asked Wei Qingwan.

"Well, maybe I didn't do a good job and my sister didn't like it..." Wei Qingwan murmured.

"Ruo'er has such a personality. She has been in the house for a while. She acts more straightforwardly, but she doesn't have any bad intentions. Wanwan, don't think too much about it." Wei Yichen said, not thinking that such a small thing is good.

Thoughtful.

The two sisters have completely different temperaments, but they are both very good girls and the two pearls of their Wei family.

"Yes...I know..." Wei Qingwan said hurriedly, with an ugly look on her downcast face.

"Brother, I kept the purse, thank you Wanwan." Although Wei Yichen has no use for this embroidered purse, it is the heartfelt gift of the two sisters that must be cherished.

Capital City, Zhongyi Bofu.

The news of Wei Mingting's promotion soon spread to the capital. The news came from central Beijing and arrived earlier than the letter sent from Xingshan County.

Upon hearing this good news, the entire Zhongyi family was immersed in an atmosphere of joy.

"Well done to the third brother! This is a happy event, a great happy event, and a great happy event for our entire family!"

The old man was very happy, and his face was filled with a look of joy that he had not shown for a long time.

It has been three full years, and the third child has finally been promoted to the next level! His worries can finally be put to rest!

Wei Minghong and Wei Mingyong also had smiles on their faces.

"Father, this is such a happy event. Now we don't have to worry about our third brother being dismissed." Wei Mingyong said with a smile.

"Father, for such a big happy event, should we go to Xingshan County to express congratulations to our third brother in person?" Wei Minghong asked for instructions.

The old man objected: "There is no need to go in person. Although you are just on a casual job now, you have an errand on your body. Where can you run around casually? Are you afraid that no one will catch you?"

The old man continued: "If you two brothers are really happy for your brother, show your sincerity. As brothers, you should also prepare some gifts for your brother. It is bitterly cold in Xingshan County, and I heard that this year's schedule will not be good."

Well, it’s already foreseeable that there will be a food shortage even before the autumn harvest. You two brothers, please think more about your brother.”

Wei Minghong and Wei Mingyong looked a little embarrassed. They originally wanted to take this opportunity to go to Xingshan County, but they didn't want to go to Xingshan County, and their father asked them to use their family wealth.

The two brothers hesitated for a while, and Wei Mingyong spoke first: "Father is right, I will go back and make preparations. The third brother is promoted, so the congratulatory gift cannot be shabby."

Wei Mingyong had already spoken, so Wei Minghong naturally found it difficult to let go. He said bravely, "Father, don't worry, even if you don't mention this matter, I will definitely make arrangements early."

Although the two brothers were reluctant, they did not dare to fool the old uncle. After returning, they each prepared some things and took them to the old uncle. After the old uncle sorted them out, he sent someone to load them into a truck and send them to Xingshan County.

In late July, Wei Ruo received a reply from Mojiazha.

Li Zheng wrote a reply to Wei Ruo on behalf of the villagers. He promised that after their Mojia station harvested this year's grain, they would keep next year's grain, and then sell the extra grain to Wei Ruo at the normal local price.

The rice seeds grown in their village were all given by Wei Ruo, and Wei Ruo taught them a lot of planting knowledge, which made their village's rice production much higher than other surrounding villages for several consecutive years.

In this way, the living conditions of the originally poor Mojiazha have been significantly improved. They can have enough food and clothing. In addition to being self-sufficient, they can also have surplus grain to sell for money.

The villagers remembered this sentiment, so no matter how the price of food changed in the future, they would sell it to Wei Ruo at the usual price.

The coal has also been contacted and a batch has been purchased in Huzhou Prefecture in advance. It will be shipped here in a while.

Whether it is the current situation or the memory of the original owner, Wei Ruo is told that this year will be a difficult year. Cold weather and food shortage will be the two major problems plaguing Xingshan County.

Faced with these problems, Wei Ruo must make plans early.

"Miss, do you really want to spend so much money on grain and coal? This is almost all the cash you have." Xiumei was a little worried.

Wei Ruo had already spent most of the money he had saved to buy Xiaoyang Mountain, and now he had to spend another five hundred taels of silver to buy grain and coal, which almost wiped out all the money he had saved.

"Flowing water does not rot, money can make money. Silver itself is just a piece of cold iron. Only when it can be exchanged for what I want, then the money is meaningful."

"Miss, just have a plan. If something happens, don't bear it alone. My nanny, my nanny, and Uncle Xu can all help you." Xiumei said.

"Don't worry, good plum. Your lady, I am very good at making money!" Wei Ruo smiled, then touched his stomach, "It's just that I do too many things that require my brain, and I get hungry easily."

"Okay, okay, I understand. I'm going to make some snacks right now! The seafood I bought too much last time has been dried. How about I grill you some dried squid?"

"Okay, bake some more and send some to my second brother."

"no problem!"

Xiumei went to take out the dried squid that had just been dried a while ago, went to Yingzhuyuan next door, and borrowed the charcoal fire in their small kitchen to grill it.

After baking, it was divided into two parts. One part was left in Yingzhuyuan for Xiaobei to take to Wei Jinyi, and the remaining part was taken back to Wei Ruo.

After Wei Ruo finished chewing a piece of crispy grilled squid, he happily stayed in the room and stayed busy all afternoon.

On the other side, Wei Jin also tasted the grilled dried squid sent by Wei Ruo.

Xiaobei sighed with emotion: "Master, the eldest lady is so kind to you. She thinks of you no matter what!"
