Rong Qiaoyan, who sat for a while, watched Miaozhi take Shirui in the house, busy packing up her things and preparing for dinner.

She slowly paced to the doorway and looked out.

The twilight is getting thicker, and the western sky still has a bright crimson remnant.

Bai Mei is still raising the wind chill in her own home, Mama Yang has not come back yet, Shi Pozi is boiling hot water in the pantry, and Mo'er is about to light the lantern under the corridor in a hurry, not at all like those people's homes mentioned in the book, and they are willing to light the oil lamp until it is dark.

Even if there are few people to serve, even if the quality of the example is not good, she has the dignity of a large family in the yard of a concubine.

And she, after more than ten years of worry-free food and clothing, does she really want to go out to live that precarious life?

Of course not!

So she's going to earn money! Even if she had to take some risks, she had to do it.

Since we have decided that we cannot live in such a muddy way, we should strive to lay a more solid material foundation for that free day.

Things have been decided to be done, and the rest will be left to Providence!

Rong Qiaoyan's heart became more and more calm.

Rong Qiaoyan, who wanted to open it, turned around and entered the round table in the inner room and began to eat.

Mama Yang soon came back to serve, her curious eyes kept staring at Rong Qiaoyan, wanting to know what Rong Qiaoyan told Zhou Lei.

Rong Qiaoyan guessed that Zhou Lei really didn't tell Mama Yang what he explained to him.

However, she ignored Mama Yang's curiosity.

In this way, time flies.

After Laba is the New Year.

Rong Fuli is busy for the upcoming New Year.

The eldest lady in charge of the feed was so busy that even the eldest lady was rightfully pulled over to be a helper.

The other young ladies are very leisurely, nesting in the house all day long and chanting poems, not counting, but also thinking of finding excuses to get together.

Nowadays, there is no need to go to school for girls and do homework, which is naturally very relaxed.

If you don't loosen up at this time, when will you relax?

Therefore, Rong Qiaoyan was also forced to participate in several banquets during this time.

It's not which lady is the east, it's which lady starts to make a game.

Rong Qiaoyan couldn't help but feel distressed when she looked at the monthly money that was slowly decreasing because of giving gifts or making friends.

However, she is not good at coming out at this time, so she can only go every time as before, but when she gives gifts or money, she picks and pulls.

Hence another bunch of jokes.

Even Aunt Shuang heard about this, and couldn't help but quietly come to Xingruo Garden, and asked her for the monthly money and rewards she had saved.

Rong Qiaoyan explained that it was to save money in the future, so that Aunt Shuang didn't have to talk about it unexpectedly----------- anyway, after leaving, who knows who?"

Even so, Aunt Shuang still insisted on leaving thirty taels for Rong Qiaoyan to let her relax during the Chinese New Year.

Rong Qiaoyan looked at the earnest Aunt Shuang, and could only accept it helplessly.

Aunt Shuang is not as rewarding as Rong Qiaoyan. As an aunt, most of the rewards are those of the husband and the head of the house.

Aunt Shuang is not favored, except for the reward of following the trend, the eldest master will not give Aunt Shuang his own body on weekdays.

On the eldest lady's side, it was because of Aunt Shuang's loyalty and respectfulness, and occasionally there were some invaluable rewards.

And Rong Qiaoyan is the young lady of Rongfu, but whenever there is a reward in the house, she will have a share; Even if you go out to see the gift, you have to have her share of the gift.

Seriously speaking, Rong Qiaoyan's rewards and moon silver are much more than Aunt Shuang's.

However, if you can save money for your own house, who wouldn't want to save for yourself?

Therefore, Rong Qiaoyan's recent performance is similar to her previous temperament, so no one is surprised except for the jokes.

When Rong Qiaoyan didn't go to the party, she worked hard to study the map and various customs and other travelogues, so as to make a general road map.

It's a pity that the map is really old, and Rong Qiaoyan can't completely believe it, so she can only remember the location of the big mansion city.

Regarding the various bandits mentioned in the travelogue and the different customs, Rong Qiaoyan could only frown, thinking about how to crack it if she encountered it.

On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, sacrifice to the god of the stove.

Like Mama Yang, a person who drags his family and has a small courtyard in the back alley, even if he is a cold pot and a cold stove on weekdays, he should go back today to sacrifice to the god of the stove and paste the mouth of the prince of the stove, so that when he goes back to heaven, he will make a random announcement.

Therefore, Rong Qiaoyan directly gave grace and asked Mama Yang to stay at home for a day and come back the next day.

When Mama Yang came back from the outer courtyard on the twenty-fourth, she brought a sentence from Zhou Lei, and it was done.

When Rong Qiaoyan heard this, she desperately suppressed her excitement and nodded reservedly.

Mama Yang's face was full of curiosity, and Rong Qiaoyan just turned a blind eye.

Seeing that Rong Qiaoyan didn't plan to say anything, Mama Yang could only ask less in disappointment.

After sending everyone out, Rong Qiaoyan lay down in the quilt and laughed sullenly.

These 3,000 taels of silver can be bought for a lot of polished rice or brown rice.

She really wanted to ask Zhou Lei about the details of this matter.

However, the beating of the eldest lady was still in her ears before, and Rong Qiaoyan could only suppress this thought.

Because of this happy event, during the entire Chinese New Year, Rong Qiaoyan's expression was full of joy.

Fortunately, because it is the New Year, everyone is more festive, so Rong Qiaoyan's appearance will not be particularly prominent.

During the Chinese New Year, there were more gifts, and Rong Qiaoyan received a lot of rewards.

Those silver barley, pearl and gem rings, jade pendants and other small things have actually saved a lot.

And Rong Qiaoyan finally found an opportunity to inquire about Zhou Lei.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Mrs. Tai thought that her eldest granddaughter would get married soon, and she could no longer be as relaxed as in her mother's house.

Therefore, with a stroke of her pen, she asked people to charter a big wing room in the restaurant on Tianjie, so that the ladies of the family could go to participate in the Lantern Festival.

Rong Qiaoyan suppressed her excitement and asked Mama Yang to tell Zhou Lei that she would see him on the night of the Lantern Festival.

Zhou Lei naturally understood what Miss meant------- he must have been thinking about the granary.

He also wanted to find an opportunity to tell the young lady quickly.

After all, it was the first time he had handled such a large amount of silver tickets, and the first time he had gone to buy so much grain, so he had changed several sets of makeup and went around and around, and took time to buy them intermittently.

Fortunately, in the half month before the Chinese New Year, he stumbled and finally got things done.

Everyone felt that the new grain would soon be withdrawn, so those grain stores, or the Zhuangzi of large families, sold a large amount of grain before the New Year, so that they could use the money to have a prosperous and decent New Year.

He only consulted two or three sellers, and then he bought all the grain.

Today, I just handed over the key to the village to my young lady.

Zhou Lei carefully put the key in his purse and put it in his sleeve pocket.

When she arrived at the restaurant box in Rongfuding on Tianjie, Rong Qiaoyan sat in the corner by the window, looking at the colorful lanterns outside the window, the bustling crowd downstairs, listening to Rong Zhuohua and the eldest lady coquettishly, and the laughter and conversation of other sisters, thinking about how to take the time to meet Zhou Lei.
