I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

In the past, in the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion, those who were able to go out to earn a living were sent away, and most of those who stayed were old or young who had no one to rely on. After hearing what Shen Rong said, how could these old people not be moved.

Shen Rong glanced at everyone's eyes, and finally looked at Mrs. Zhang, "Mrs. Zhang, let me ask you, is what Mrs. Wang said true? Tell me the truth."

Mrs. Zhang saw Shen Rong's cold eyes and nodded slightly.

Shen Rong heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Mrs. Zhang was not beyond help.

"In that case, the fifty coins Wang Po fined me will be deducted from Zhang Po's monthly salary forty coins, and Wang Po will deduct ten coins. Do you two accept this?"

When Mrs. Wang saw that the young mistress only punished her with ten points, she looked at Shen Rong with gratitude.

Mrs. Zhang glanced at Shen Rong, moved her mouth, and finally lowered her head to look at her toes, looking extremely desperate.

At this time, a maid whispered to Shen Rong, "Young Madam, I heard that Madam Zhang's grandson is sick again and is looking for money!"

Mrs. Zhang's grandson is a weak child and falls sick every other day.

What was once a decent family was dragged down.

In order to earn money for his son's medicine, Mrs. Zhang's son went to the dock to carry heavy bags every day. His daughter-in-law stayed at home to take care of the children and also took on laundry work. However, even so, the family often ran out of food.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang could often bring some leftovers back from the mansion.

After listening to the old woman's story, Shen Rong never expected that the people living under the emperor's feet had such a difficult life.

But we cannot let Mrs. Zhang be lazy at work.

Shen Rong thought about it, "Let's put it this way! The situation at Mrs. Zhang's home and her own laziness at work are two different things and cannot be confused.

Mrs. Zhang, if you don't have money to buy medicine for your grandson, you can pay a few months' salary in advance and then make up the difference later."

When Mrs. Zhang heard what Shen Rong said, the light in her eyes suddenly lit up.

Shen Rong continued, "I know that our house is large, but there are few people in it, and everyone has a lot of work to do. Don't worry, in the next few days, some people will come into the house, and you will be able to relax a little in the future. I will also raise your monthly salary as appropriate afterwards."

As soon as the word about monthly salary came out, the maids and servants who were watching the fun suddenly became excited.

"Madam, are you telling the truth?" Mrs. Zhang looked at Shen Rong excitedly.

Shen Rong nodded, "When life gets better in the mansion in the future, we will increase everyone's monthly salary."

There was an experienced woman who was full of disbelief, "Madam, we just merged the west wing into our house. In order to raise money, we sold all the shops and farms. Later, they renovated the house and even raised our monthly salary. Where did the money come from..."

Shen Rong pointed to the pomegranate tree beside her, on which there were already bright red buds. "Here, the money comes from here. You must take good care of these fruits and vegetables. Your monthly salary will come from here in the future."

After Shen Rong said this, everyone was confused.

In the past, when Shen Rong and his wife were just preparing to farm, many people secretly laughed at them, saying that they were indeed from the country and were actually farming in the yard.

But now that everyone learned that the land was cultivated to earn them a monthly salary, the contempt in their hearts disappeared completely.

They have all signed a contract to sell their bodies, and if their masters do not increase their monthly wages, they can only watch helplessly.

Therefore, no one doubted Shen Rong's words.

Because there is absolutely no need to lie to them.

The slight discomfort that Mrs. Zhang felt about having her money deducted disappeared completely in an instant.

A farce ended amid everyone's anticipation for the future.

When Shen Rong and Chun Xing returned to the yard, Juxiang and Qiuxia were already waiting for them!

When Shen Rong learned that the families of the two were also going to come into the house, she asked about the situation at Chun Xing's home and mentioned it to the housekeeper.

However, after the housekeeper talked to the old lady, he suggested that the whole family sign a contract to sell themselves before coming in.

Shen Rong originally thought that the three families would have to think about such conditions for a while, but she didn't expect that on the second day, Chun Xing and her family brought their parents, brothers, sisters and brothers to sign the indenture contract.

Chun Xing's family consists of seven people. Chun Xing is the eldest and she has four younger brothers and sisters.

Juxiang's family consists of six people, including an older brother, Jiafu, and a younger brother and a younger sister.

Qiuxia has a smaller family, including her parents and a ten-year-old brother.

After Shen Rong met the three families, she asked the housekeeper to take charge of the arrangements.

Finally, the twins each had a new playmate: Chun Xing's younger sister Shi Liu and Ju Xiang's five-year-old brother Jia Rui.

Changsheng was also accompanied by a servant and a long-time attendant, Qiuxia's father Liu Daming and his ten-year-old son Liu Xiaoshu.

Liu Daming has been making a living outside with his wife and children in recent years. As he is younger and smarter, the housekeeper arranged for him to be with Changsheng.

As for the others, the younger ones ran errands and swept the floor, while the adults filled in a few vacancies in the mansion.

Since most of the three families had half-grown children, Shen Rong thought that the land in the mansion would need people to clean it, so she finally hired a human trafficker to come and buy eight men of older age.

It can guard the yard and help with farming.

Wang Qing was still doing the job of a security guard. In addition to training the servants in the mansion, he also led people to patrol the mansion, so he was very busy.

That day, the housekeeper brought the account books of the rouge shop and the farm.

After reading the account book, Shen Rong laughed out of anger.

Let’s not talk about the small farm. It’s next to a mountain, the land is not good, and the harvest is not very good on weekdays. We usually rely on growing vegetables and raising chickens to increase our income.

After Shen Rong looked at it, she directly gave the account book to Changsheng and asked him to oversee the planting of fruit trees, vegetables and melons.

As for whether it is too late now that it is March, Shen Rong is not worried. She has the space and can grow the seedlings in advance and plant them with soil. She is guaranteed to survive.

As for the account of that rouge shop, it is really infuriating.

The money she earned last month was only half of what she earned the month before last. Does the shopkeeper think that she is a country girl who knows nothing?

Two years ago, Shen Rong followed her grandparents to open a clinic, and she knew how to look at the account books and other things.

In a place like the capital, a rouge shop would only make less than 100 taels of profit a month.

At the end of the month, the old lady handed the shop over to her. When she sent her the account book for last month this month, the profit had been cut in half, totaling less than eighty taels.

Shen Rong thought of Xiao Zhuzi who was an apprentice in the shop. She wondered how he was doing with his studies.

Shen Rong thought of Zhang Liuniang who lived in the courtyard next door.

At the beginning, the rouge shop opened by Zhang Liuniang in that small county town had very good business. If Zhang Liuniang was willing to work in her shop...

Shen Rong couldn't sit still when she thought about her shop's booming business.

Ever since Zhang Liuniang and her daughter entered the mansion, her daughter has been sickly, so Shen Rong asked Zhang Liuniang to take good care of the child.

The mother and daughter were treated as guests in the mansion and a maid was arranged to take care of them.

According to the old woman, the girl was frightened and afraid to see people. She stayed in the room all day. In order to comfort her daughter, Zhang Liuniang stayed with her all day long.

Later, Shen Rong became busy and no longer cared about the situation of Zhang Liuniang and her daughter.

I don’t know if her daughter’s condition has improved now?

Does Zhang Liuniang still have the mind to open a shop now?

Shen Rong came to the courtyard where Zhang Liuniang and her daughter lived.

The courtyard in the mansion was being renovated during those days. Zhang Liuniang's courtyard was close to the main courtyard and was well preserved. It did not need to be renovated, so the mother and daughter were not disturbed.

When Shen Rong entered the Rose Courtyard, Zhang Liuniang was holding her daughter, sitting on a swing and looking at the flower wall opposite.

When Yun'er noticed someone coming, she subconsciously snuggled into Zhang Liuniang's arms.

Zhang Liuniang's eyes flashed with a trace of heartache, and then she gave Shen Rong a tearful smile, "The young mistress is here."

As he said this, he was about to get off the swing, holding the child in his arms, and bowed to Shen Rong.

Shen Rong hurried forward and held Zhang Liuniang, "Sister Zhang, why are you so polite? I have been busy these days. I wonder if Sister Zhang is used to living here?"

Zhang Liuniang held her daughter in her arms, her eyes slightly red. "Everything is fine here, mother and daughter, thanks to the young madam." She patted her daughter's arm gently, "Yun'er, this is your aunt who is treating your illness. Look how beautiful I am!"

When Yun'er heard her mother's words, she raised her head from her mother's arms and looked at Shen Rong timidly.

Shen Rong smiled at Yun'er, "Yun'er, can I talk to your mother?"

Yun'er looked at Shen Rong for a while, then nodded and buried her head in Madam Zhang's arms again.

The two of them came to the main room and sat down.

The maid who took care of the mother and daughter served them a pot of tea.

Seeing that Yun'er was very quiet, Shen Rong stated her purpose directly, "I now have a rouge shop, and I would like to hand it over to you to manage. Your daughter..."

"My daughter is fine. When can you let me go over?" Zhang Liuniang immediately perked up.

Living under someone else's roof won't last forever, and for the sake of her daughter, she has to stand on her own feet.

"Don't worry, I haven't visited the shop yet, I'll go check it out first." Shen Rong paused, "That shop is a rouge shop, it only has 180 taels of silver a month, if you want to make it work, I'm afraid it won't be that easy."

Zhang Liuniang was silent for a while, then said, "You saved Yun'er and me. I have the rouge recipe. Use mine!"

Seeing Zhang Liuniang bringing up the matter, Shen Rong no longer hesitated, "I know your recipe is good. If you give me the recipe, I will give you some shares, but I have to see how much before I decide."

It's not that Shen Rong was reluctant to give up those shares, but Chen Yuan's willingness to buy Zhang Liuniang at all costs was closely related to the rouge recipe.

If that was the case, if she wanted to borrow Zhang Liuniang's prescription to open a shop, she had to find a backer.

Shen Rong was afraid that Zhang Liuniang would think too much, so she told Zhang Liuniang about the situation in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion and Yiyong Earl's Mansion.

After hearing this, Zhang Liuniang was completely confused and immediately said that she would follow Shen Rong's arrangements.

The rouge made by Zhang Liuniang is good, but Shen Rong does not dare to underestimate the rouge shops in the capital.

If the gouache made by Zhang Liuniang is much worse than that of other shops, even if she wants to find a backer, the backer may not look down on her.

For this purpose, over the next two days, Shen Rong asked three maids to take silver and go to various famous shops in the capital to buy rouge and powder.

After buying them, Shen Rong and Zhang Liuniang tried them all one by one.

Among them, there are indeed a few companies that make good rouge and powder.

But Zhang Liuniang also has confidence in her rouge and powder.

So the two hit it off and began preparing to reopen the shop.

As soon as March began, Shen Rong was busy again.

Changsheng even took Daming with him, running back and forth in and out of the city every day.
