Chapter 110: Travel
It didn't take long for Mama Lei to come to Bianliang to reach Rong Zheng's ears.
Taking advantage of Lei Bo's efforts to come over to deliver the account book in the afternoon, Rong Zheng and Lei Bo said: "I'll send someone to pick up Mama tomorrow to sit here, okay?" ”
Lei Bo naturally didn't say anything, and when he went back, he told Mama Lei about it.
When Mama Lei heard that the young lady of Lei Bodong's family wanted to see her, she was a little excited and said, "What does she see me doing." As I grew older, I was sometimes a little confused, for fear that I would upset the young lady by not being able to speak. ”
Lei Bo said: "Why do you want to do so much, you have stayed in this courtyard all day after you came to Bianliang and have not gone anywhere." I don't have time to accompany you. Besides, the place where we live now is also Miss's territory, so you can just go in and talk to Miss. Could it be that Miss Cheng is still embarrassed by you? Our lady is the most amiable person. ”
Mama Lei was silent for a long time before she said, "Okay, I'll go and say hello to this young lady." She is kind to you, and I can't avoid it. ”
Lei Bo breathed a sigh of relief.
The next morning, sure enough, there was a car to pick up Mama Lei to go to Rong's house. Mama Lei got in the car and came.
Here Rong Zheng is stroking the qin, Zheng Niangzi has now dispersed, she hasn't touched the piano for a long time, and she is almost unfamiliar. When she finished stroking a "Flowing Water", Mei Fen came to report: "Miss, Mama Lei is here." ”
Rong Zheng got up and said, "Please come in." ”
Mama Lei was ushered in by a servant woman. As soon as she stepped into the threshold, she smelled a good aroma, which she felt familiar, sweet and faint, which made people feel refreshed.
When she saw a young lady sitting on the couch, she knelt down and said, "The old woman greets the young lady." ”
Rong Zheng hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Mama, don't worship me, please get up quickly." ”
At that moment, Hongluo moved Zhang Xiudun for Mama Lei, and Rong Zheng invited Mama Lei to sit.
Mama Lei saw that there was still a piano on the piano table, and the green smoke curled in the Boshan furnace, burning with high-quality spices. No wonder she felt familiar when she first entered the door, the first princess also liked to play the qin, and she must burn incense when she stroked the qin. The aroma is exactly the same. She couldn't help but secretly look at Rong Zheng. Xindao is a young lady, who doesn't seem to be in time yet, with black hair. Holding Su'er, wearing a string of pearls, a hairpin of a pink rose. He wears a jeweled ring inlaid with silver around his neck. Pale green embroidered skirts, white pleated skirts. It's not flashy, but very low-key.
"I heard Lei Bo say that you came to Bianliang, and I have long wanted to invite your old man to come and visit the door. Are you still used to living in Bianliang and eating? ”
Mama Lei said with a smile: "The old slave has also lived in Bianliang for five or six years before, and if you want to say that you are used to it, you must be used to it. I didn't expect to cause trouble to the young lady. ”
Rong Zheng smiled and nodded: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, that place is also empty, just Huaizi mother and son are there. I don't go there often, and my mother can stay as long as she wants. What's more, I am also entrusted by others. ”
After a few times, Mama Lei really felt that Rong Zheng was a very easy-going person, not as trembling as she used to be every time she went to see the first princess.
"The old slave had heard his son mention it before, saying that the young lady had saved his life. The old slave has been thinking about it and is very grateful. It is also this child who has edification. I was afraid that he would go down the wrong path, thanks to the help of the young lady. ”
Rong Zheng said: "It's just a coincidence. Rong Zheng asked again: "Lei Bo, he is nineteen this year, right?" ”
"yes, nineteen."
Rong Zheng smiled again: "It's not small, I think he is quite down-to-earth." People are very competent. Trustworthy, thinking about telling him about family affairs. While your old man is still in Bianliang, it's good to settle down for him. ”
When Mama Lei heard this, Rong Zheng happened to say something on her mind over the years, and she was very happy and said: "It would be his honor to be able to be the master of Miss Meng." I wonder if there is a candidate for Miss? ”
Rong Zheng shook his head blankly: "No, I haven't thought of the right person yet." I just think that this matter should be discussed with you, and you should also go back and talk to Lei Bo and ask him what he means. If he has someone he likes, he might as well come and sue me. Maybe I can help you out. ”
Mama Lei was very grateful.
Mama Lei told Lei Bo about the meaning of Rong Zheng that night, and Lei Bo was silent after hearing it. There is a person in his heart, but he is afraid that it will not be possible at present.
Mama Lei said on the side: "I think this Miss Rong is reasonable. You're not young, you should start a family. I'm so relieved. ”
Lei Bo said: "I can't do it now, and I can't make a name." I don't have much spare money in my hand, and I said that I got married too early. Mother doesn't have to follow suit. When the time comes, I'll talk to Miss. ”
"It's going to be twenty soon, and you're not in a hurry at all. When others are your age, there are a few babies. ”
Lei Bo didn't think so, and even said: "Then Uncle Mu is a few years older than me, and people are not alone." ”
"What do you compare to him?"
The matter had to be put on hold for the time being.
The ninth day of the first month of March. Bai Shengchun asked someone to invite Rong Zheng to play in the village, Rong Zheng thought that she didn't go to see the peach blossoms a few days ago, and she didn't go this time. I thought that Mei Fen, this little girl, was only afraid that she was very homesick.
So he agreed to come down and go to Lutang. She didn't go to Ma to report, set off the next day, and told the person in charge of the sedan car to prepare to get out of the car.
Ma Shi heard that Rong Zheng was going out, so he didn't ask. She thought that she and the Mu family could smooth the marriage, but she didn't expect Rong Jiang to not agree. In this way, Rong Zheng's family affairs were put on hold again. As long as Rong Jiang is still in office, then she can still use Rong Zheng's family affairs to make an article, provided that she can pinch this matter smoothly into her own hands!
On the second day, Rong Zheng took the red snail and Mei Fen to the reed pond.
Bianliang in March is a vibrant scene, with red flowers and willow green, thriving. Bai Shengchun's family took pear blossoms to dig a lot of wild vegetables from the field, and Bai Shengchun fished some small fish, shrimp, loaches and other things from the ditch. Bai Shengchun's family decided to invite Rong Zheng to come to the village for a day and entertain her with these wild meats in the field.
Rong Zheng took the maids to the village, and she saw that the small seedlings were already being raised in someone's house, and the seedlings could be put into the field without waiting for the Dragon Boat Festival.
Rika saw that her sister was back, and she seemed happier than everyone else. As soon as they entered, the two little girls were locked in the room and muttered something to themselves.
Hongluo is also innocent, and it didn't take long for him to get acquainted with the sisters of the Bai family. Hongluo wanted to go to the ditch with Lihua to catch fish and shrimp, so he encouraged Rong Zheng to go too.
Although Rong Zheng is still a little girl, her heart is not a child after all, so she waved her hand and said, "You guys go play." But be careful, don't fall into the water. ”
Rika smiled: "Don't worry, Miss, I can swim." ”
Mei Fen consciously stayed, either to help her mother do things, or to serve Rong Zheng in front of her.
Bai Shengchun's daughter has grown up a lot. I was also very relieved.
Here Mei Fen helped to light the fire, and Bai Shengchun's family was busy cleaning wild vegetables. Bai Shengchun's family and Mei Fen said: "You go and ask Miss, see if there is still a shortage of people, and send your sister in too." She is also naughty at home. ”
Mei Fen thought for a moment but said, "I'm working as a maid alone." There is only such a sister, let her help her father and mother at home. ”
"You don't agree?"
Mei Fen said: "I know my sister very well, and she is a person who is afraid of restraint. Being a maid is not as chic and comfortable as being at home. It will be easier to kiss her in the future. I think forget it. ”
Bai Shengchun's family thought that the youngest daughter was really difficult to discipline, and if she really went in and continued to be a maid, she was afraid that she would cause trouble, so she had to give up.
"It's been almost a year since you've been in there. Didn't the young lady give you any errands? ”
Mei Fen said: "Someone else will do it." ”
"I said you, sometimes you're too honest, but it's useless. Do you want to be a third-class maid for the rest of your life? Or I'll tell the lady in a moment, and let her assign you something else. ”
Mei Fen's head shook like a rattle, and hurriedly stopped her and said, "Mother, let's save some face for me, if you say it in such a hurry, what will Miss think of me." I must have thought that I was complaining about being tired, and I must have thought that I would pick and choose what to do. ”
"You, let me tell you what's good. No wonder it's not promising! "Bai Shengchun's family feels that their daughter is unproductive, and she only has a life that is pressed by the maid above for the rest of her life.
The mother and daughter had a bit of an unpleasant quarrel because of this incident.
Rong Zheng didn't know anything about the stove. She asked Ye Lin to interrogate.
Ye Lin has been in the village for half a year, and Lei Bo took him before, but now he has to deal with these things on his own. When he first came, he thought that he was exiled here by Rong Zheng, so he seemed a little reluctant, but now he felt that this place was good, chic and comfortable, and no one cared about him. Even the Bai family was very polite to him.
"Where are all your accounts?"
Ye Lin should be.
Rong Zheng hurriedly flipped through it, and still retained the habits left by Lei Bo at the beginning, and each stroke was recorded in great detail, so that people could understand it at a glance. The ledger is well documented. Nothing is missing.
"Yes, I'm more down-to-earth than I used to be. You can do it well, and after a while, you will take over the affairs of the Tongxu side. Don't make any mistakes. ”
Ye Lin hurriedly said: "Please don't worry, Miss." ”
"Good. I'll rest assured that you do things well. Your sister is still worried about you. I see that she is two years younger than you, but she is more stable than you. ”
Ye Lin blushed and said, "My sister has been sensible since she was a child, and she has learned a lot over the years in front of Miss. ”
Rong Zheng smiled: "I can talk better than before." At present, she has to leave Yelin in the village to help her, and she can't move to other places for the time being. Wait a year or two to see again.
Bai Shengchun's family cleaned up a table of gray cabbage, horsehead orchid, camellia, mother-in-law, water celery, toon sprouts, pig hair cabbage, etc., and stewed a big bowl of loach with home-pickled cowpea and fried shrimp. Small dried fish.
Although they are all some rural game, it has a unique flavor for Rong Zheng, who is used to eating big fish and meat. Bai Shengchun's cooking skills are very good, and they can cook wild vegetables with a slightly bitter taste so deliciously. Rong Zheng thinks she is better than the kitchen girls at home.
Every time she comes to Lutang, she is always willing to stay for a meal, and eat more than when she was at home.
After eating and drinking, Rong Zheng was all satisfied: "Aunt Bai's craftsmanship is enough to open her own restaurant." ”
"Really?" Receiving such praise, Bai Shengchun's family was a little flattered.
Rong Zheng smiled: "I'm not lying. Well, should you consider opening your own restaurant? ”
The Bai family never thought about it before, they had been in Lutang for more than ten years, and they had already regarded this place as their home. Bai Shengchun's family thought for a while before saying, "No, there are still fewer restaurants and restaurants in the city." I don't know how to cook those big dishes. It's just going to make these side dishes. It's not worth a lot of money. ”
Rong Zheng said with a smile: "As long as the side dishes taste good, they can also attract a lot of diners, and I think the flavor is unique." ”
The Bai family can't afford to open a restaurant by themselves now, one has no money, and the other has no one.
However, it gave Rong Zheng a wake-up call, and if he has spare money in his hand in the future, he may be able to open a restaurant by himself, not selling those chickens, ducks and fish, but specializing in selling these special foods, as long as he runs it properly, maybe it will be a way to make money.
Bai Shengchun discussed with Rong Zheng what crops to plant this year, and Rong Zheng said, "Why don't we raise some crabs ourselves." Anyway, there is land. There are crab fry sold in the bazaar, and as long as they are raised, this crab is more expensive than fish and shrimp. ”
Bai Shengchun smiled: "Yes, I originally had this idea, but I didn't want to mention it yet." Since the young lady has opened her mouth, then I will ask people to inquire about how to raise crabs. ”
It was almost at the end of Shen that Rong Zheng left Lutang.
At this time, it was already sunset, and the clouds in the west were gradually dyed into clouds, and a flock of pigeons flew by, leaving a lonely shadow.
Halfway through the car, Hongluo suddenly said that his stomach hurt and he wanted convenience.
Rong Zheng had no choice but to stop the car and asked Mei Fen to accompany Hongluo to make it convenient. She sat in the car and waited for them to come back.
However, just when Rong Zheng was waiting for them to come back, something happened. She was sitting in the car and distinctly heard a messy footsteps getting closer. Later, I heard an unfamiliar voice shouting: "The people in the car get me down!" ”
When did Rong Zheng experience such a thing, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. She couldn't help but regret a little, she was used to walking this road in her heart, and she had never had an accident. In addition, Xiao Lu had something at home, so she didn't come a few days ago, and she didn't bring other nursing homes out. The one who drove the car was just a woman in her thirties, a woman in a car, and she didn't fight back at all when she encountered the gangsters.
Rong Zheng sat still, and at this moment, a sword suddenly plunged into the car, which was only a stone's throw away from Rong Zheng. She was sweating and shivering.
"Didn't you hear me, the people in the car let me down!"
Now, she had to come down. Cautiously opening the door, she slid lightly to the ground. Three big men came on the opposite side, all masked. When she looked at it again, Mrs. Zhang, who was in charge of driving the car, had fallen in a pool of blood, and Rong Zheng was so frightened that her face was like death.
She is a weak woman who is powerless, and she is like hitting a stone with an egg against these people. She can't die here, she hasn't done anything in this life, she can't die like this.
Rong Zheng said in his heart, no matter what these gangsters want to do, he has to rely on them for the time being, and it is important to save his life. (To be continued.) )
