Bai Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately she was stable.

She felt that she shouldn't tear things apart at this time, so she took out her purse, counted out twenty coins and handed it to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man glanced at her purse and estimated it. It seemed that the young couple was not lying, and the copper coins in the purse were only about a hundred coins.

On the way back, Bai Zhi and Wei Ziwan walked in front, followed by four middle-aged men carrying farm tools of various sizes.

Only then did Bai Zhi whisper: "How do you know they will agree?"

"I do not know."

"Then you still agree to take care of the meal? What if the negotiation fails?" Bai Zhi looked surprised.

Wei Ziwan said leisurely: "Where does the food come from?"

When Bai Zhi heard what she said, she stopped talking immediately. The villa only said that it would take care of their food, but didn't say it would take care of the hired laborers. They had no food to feed others.

When they got to the edge of the field, the four middle-aged men couldn't help but gasped when they saw the weeds covering the four acres of field.

Seeing this, Bai Zhi couldn't help but panicked, and immediately said loudly: "Big brothers, get busy first, the water pipes are enough."

The leading man touched the twenty copper coins in his bosom, secretly thinking that he was careless, the deposit was received early, otherwise the young couple would have to take care of the meal.

These four people seem to be used to doing farm work, and they have all the tools. Two of them are chopping with hoes in front, and the other two are holding the grass together with an iron rake in the back, and the other is carrying the grass to the edge of the field. on the way.

Bai Zhi was amazed when she saw it, she still has a specialization in art.

They were just laymen who struggled to pull weeds by hand before, they didn't even know how to use tools, they were so stupid that they couldn't bear to look directly at them.

According to the progress of these four people, it can be done in one afternoon. If it were her and Wei Ziwan, it would take a few days.

Thinking of this, she looked at Wei Ziwan.

The woman with blue hair like a waterfall and eyebrows like distant mountains is quietly looking at the field without heavy makeup. Her plain and elegant face is like a freehand landscape painting, which is breathtakingly beautiful.

"Is your house nice?" The beauty suddenly turned her head, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked.

Bai Zhi's breath stagnates, and said lightly: "Should I give you money if you say it looks good?"

She must have been in a daze just now, because his beautiful scenery is obviously an annoying disaster.

Wei Ziwan asked with a soft smile: "My husband, have you heard a word before?" This dead eunuch must have fallen into Qian's eyes.

"What word?" Bai Zhi asked subconsciously and then was annoyed in her heart, why did she speak in harmony with this disaster.

Wei Ziwan blinked her eyes lightly, with a hint of ridicule in her eyes: "Duplicity."

Bai Zhi moved her lips, and said with a sneer, "Not only do I know duplicity, but I also know a word called 'self-knowledge'."

Wei Ziwan's smile continued, she lowered her head and pretended to look at herself: "My family also knows this word, and they take it very seriously."

The dead eunuch even satirized her for not being self-aware, hum.

Bai Zhi couldn't help moving her lips, and finally chose wisely not to care about this disaster.

When the sky was getting dark, the grass in the field was also removed.

When paying, Bai Zhi looked at Wei Ziwan subconsciously, as she had agreed before, each person would pay half, why didn't there be any movement in this disaster.

Wei Ziwan glanced at her, and said angrily, "Husband, what do you think I'm doing? There's only one hundred coins left in the house, and they're all in your place? Hurry up and give the remaining eighty coins to the elder brothers."

Bai Zhi twitched the corners of her mouth, as if she was following someone else's words before, she can pay first, and immediately took out all the copper coins.

After the workers packed up their tools and left, she walked up to Wei Ziwan, stretched out her hand and said, "There is no one now, so bring your half."

Wei Ziwan put her hand on Bai Zhi's arm, and said softly, "Husband thinks which of us knows better how to deal with outsiders when dealing with these money?"

After finishing speaking, he also glanced suggestively at the backs of the people in front of him.

The meaning is self-evident.

Bai Zhi wanted to say it was her, but seeing the hint of redness in Wei Ziwan's eyes, she remembered the situation of dealing with those people in this troubled water at noon, and silently pursed her lips.

Everyone grew up in the palace, why is there such a difference, even though she was in the cold palace...

Seeing this, Wei Ziwan shook her arm in a timely manner: "So if this kind of thing happens again in the future, I'll just pay for it. My husband is responsible for making decisions on big things, and I'll deal with these small things."

The matter of money is of course a big deal, but as long as she is fooled first, she will be able to monopolize the financial power in the future.

This eunuch has probably stayed in the cold palace for a long time, although there is no problem with receiving people and things, he will put on a show.

On weekdays, she smiles like a warm sun to others outside, but she is as cold as ice and snow to her in private, but when it comes to guessing people's hearts, it is still far behind.

Bai Zhi thought subconsciously, only felt that the misfortune made sense, but there was a strange flash in her heart for no reason.

She couldn't tell where this strangeness came from, and at this moment, her arm was shaken again.

Bai Zhi seemed to have found where the strangeness in her heart came from, she pulled out her arm uncomfortably, then patted her sleeves and said lightly: "Let's just follow what you said for now."

Wei Ziwan smiled even more when she heard the words, her bright eyes and white teeth reflected the afterglow of the setting sun very beautifully.

Bai Zhi was stunned, then quickly looked away, and walked in front.

Behind her, Wei Ziwan touched her purse. It was a good start.

Suddenly, he felt that the eunuch was not so annoying, and his cold appearance was a little more pleasing to the eye.

She shook her head to herself, her heart was just a little bit pleasing to the eye, and then she followed quickly.

In the middle of the night, after the candles were extinguished, Bai Zhi looked at Wei Ziwan through the moonlight, and asked in a low voice, "What is the third step?"

Wei Ziwan turned over and asked in a blank tone, "What is the third step?"

Bai Zhi took a deep breath, calmed down in her heart.

"After weeding the grass in the second step, what to do in the third step?"

Wei Ziwan froze for a moment, thought for a moment and said: "The next step is to sow seeds. Tomorrow, I will ask what to plant at this time, and then I will go to the steward to get some seeds."

It should be this step...

"En." Bai Zhi responded, turned around, and gave Wei Ziwan the back of her head.

Seeing this, Wei Ziwan also turned over.

The two people are back to back, they don't share the same bed, let alone the same quilt, and there is a tacit understanding between them, separated by a distance that can sleep the next person, each looking for their own dreams.

Early the next morning, Aunt Chen knocked on the door punctually, reminding the two masters that it was time to get up and work.

Bai Zhi sat up and yawned, and looked at Wei Ziwan who also sat up: "Do you think that Aunt Chen is not here to serve us, but to watch us work and not let us be lazy."

She always has the illusion that she is not a master, but a worker who is being followed.

"Husband is right, I also feel the same way." Wei Ziwan stood up, looked at the light coming in from the window, and was urged to work by servants before dawn, which is not how a master treats her.

This time they didn't wear their favorite clothes, but wore the same dusty sackcloth as yesterday.

After all, you have to deal with the land, and you have to look like you do whatever you do.

The people in the villa don't have the habit of having breakfast before working. Instead, they have to go to the fields in the early morning when there is no sun and work for a long time before returning to eat.

Bai Zhi and Wei Ziwan went to do as the Romans did, and first went to the manager to ask what crops should be planted in this season, and finally chose radishes among many choices.

Because it sounds like planting is relatively simple, and it matures relatively quickly. Generally, it can be harvested in about two months, so that it can catch up with spring planting in the next spring.

As for the matter of the seeds, Manager Lu said that he would ask for instructions and ask them to come back after breakfast.

Bai Zhi and Wei Ziwan looked at each other, and there was a hint of worry in their eyes.

"Do you think these radish seeds will cost money?" Bai Zhi recalled Guanshi Lu's expression, and always felt that they were about to face a problem again.

Wei Ziwan nodded: "My husband's guess is probably true."

There is no such thing as a free lunch. Judging from the situation in the past two days, it is very possible for them to spend money to buy seeds.

After dinner, the two went to look for Guanshi Lu, but Bai Li was also there.

Their eyes alternated, and it seemed that they had guessed right.

Bai Li watched them approaching with a smile, and then pointed to the ground: "Here are twenty bags of soybeans, each bag weighs one stone, and the market price in previous years is about six hundred pennies a stone. If you can sell them all, as long as you don't lose money In the future, the villa will provide you with seeds of various crops for free."

(One stone here is about 25 catties, that is, a bag of 25 catties of soybeans, 20 bags with a total weight of 500 catties)

Bai Zhi and Wei Ziwan looked at each other, what's going on, you don't need money to buy it?
