Cheng Xiaoxiao was puzzled, but he didn't ask it face to face. It was very impolite, so he could only eat the meat in silence. Anyway, the fish dishes were not bad.

"It seems that Miss Di really likes to eat fish!" Mr. Bai teased with a smile.

Several people ate elegantly, and they didn't lose their composure because they hadn't eaten such a good meal for a long time.

But the speed of grilling food is not slow.

Cheng Xiaoxiao used a handkerchief shyly, inserted the corner of his mouth, and said with a smirk, "I made Grandpa Bai laugh."

"Haha! What's the matter? The most important thing in our family is fish. Girl Di can eat it with confidence. I will ask the cook to make other flavors tomorrow."

"Really? That's great!" Cheng Xiaoxiao just felt overjoyed, then realized that he had lost his composure, and lowered his head a little shyly.

Mr. Bai is very happy, this child is really temperamental!She is not as gentle as her younger daughter, but she has a free and easy temper, and does not stick to trivial matters. No wonder she will fight for righteousness, she is a warm-hearted and good girl.

"Well, Grandpa Bai means what he says."

After speaking, he gave the housekeeper a wink.

"Okay, sir." The butler received the order and kept it in his heart.

"Brother Bai, my granddaughter has been used to it since she was a child, and she is too impulsive and aggressive, so I hope you will take care of her."

"Where, I think Miss Di has a bright and righteous temper, a kind and generous heart, and she is an excellent girl. Unlike the brats in my family, everyone is not worried."

"Brother Bai can't say anything."

The business mutual blowing mode is on, and Cheng Xiaoxiao has nothing to do, so he can only make excuses and slip away.

Just stepping out of the door, a gust of cold wind hits. Now the temperature outside is about ten degrees at noon, and it may only be four or five degrees in the morning and evening, or even lower.

It's so cold before November, I don't know what it will be like in the future.

I don't know how to survive the days without air-conditioning!

Sad people!

In the evening, Cheng Xiaoxiao digested food in the garden, listening to the system complain that the young master of the Bai family is currently being punished in the ancestral hall.

If it weren't for their help, not only the berth of the Bai family would be in jeopardy this time, but the damage to their reputation would also affect the business of each store, so at this moment, Mr. Bai is giving lectures in the ancestral hall.

Bai Qiuyi knelt in front of the ancestral tablet, bowed his head and admitted his mistake, while the Bai family uncle and the second master stood aside and listened.

In fact, the population of the Bai family is not complicated. Mr. Bai has three sons and one daughter.

The eldest is Bai Qiuyi's father, Bai Lian, who is the current head of the family. He has two sons and a daughter. The second son, Bai Zheng, has a son and a daughter.

Among the Bai family's concubines, the hierarchy is quite strict, and there is no drama where the concubine is in power and framed by the concubine.

The third child has no right to speak, and is mainly responsible for taking care of the two farms. The family usually lives on the farm, and only returns to the ancestral house when there is something to do.

But the daughter of the Bai family is not very successful, she has a bad personality, and she married a useless scholar, and often went back to her mother's house to play the autumn breeze.

The old man Bai in the ancestral hall had a sad expression on his face. Things are getting worse and worse. Not to mention the suppression of them by the Wang family, but the harvest in Zhuangzi is also very poor this year.

In addition, the business of each store is not good, and the yard is saving money. This winter may be difficult.

"You guys, what do you think of the members of the Di family?"

The second master of the Bai family said excitedly, "Father, those are the rich masters, we have to curry favor, maybe the Bai family can rely on them to turn over."

Uncle Bai disapproved, "Second brother, don't think things too brightly, we are just meeting for the first time, and we don't know the details of the person who came here, so how can we make such a decision based on only one side of the story?"

The old man also said with emotion, "Boss is right, we must not have the intention of harming others, and we must also have the intention of guarding against others. After observing for two more days, it will not be too late to make a decision if we share the same interests."

The system complained: "Host, it seems that the Bai family is still guarding against you, but we helped them a lot today, what a white-eyed wolf."

"It's human nature to be suspicious. Some people who have been friends for decades can be insulted and betrayed, not to mention strangers who have only known each other for a day.

There is nothing wrong with the so-called knowing people, knowing their faces, but not their hearts. I don't expect to gain their trust just once. Businessmen pay attention to their interests, and they are profitable. "

If you want to get the certificate and guarantee documents as soon as possible, it is best to change your household registration, otherwise you will be restricted wherever you go.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Bai Qiuyi took the young masters of the Di family to stroll around the bustling streets.

Bai Qiuyi thought that he could go with Miss Di, but he didn't expect that only the two young masters and the steward came, with four servants behind him.

He was disappointed in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.

With a professional smile on his face, he led the way out the door.

The Bai family has five shops in the town. In addition to the fish shop stall, there is also a grocery store, a teahouse and a bookstore.

The worst thing is the tavern, which loses money every month and is almost out of business.

These are not profitable industries, and the income is much worse than those of restaurants, brothels, and casinos. Why is this?Their Bai family is inferior to the generation of the Wang family.

How can a serious business be compared with a profiteering industry.

And since the Wang family climbed up to become the magistrate of the county, they have been involved in every profit-making industry, tasted the sweetness, and their ambitions have become bigger and bigger.

Along the way, I introduced it to the two young masters, and introduced Linjiang's special food, cultural scenery, and in general basic necessities of life.

Cheng Xiaoxiao, who was dressed as a servant, fell behind them and looked around. There were a variety of goods on both sides of the street, selling everything. If it wasn't for her different status now, she would have rushed out. There are many weird things, some Only seen on TV, some never seen at all.

Due to the large age gap, Hu Yixiu and Hu Eryang both carried them, so there weren't many topics to talk about, but Bai Qiuyi would buy all the things the two young masters liked.

I went out early in the morning, walked around for a long time, had lunch, and didn't return home until three or four o'clock.

He never noticed that the person Bai Qiuyi was thinking of was nearby, and after returning home to see the two young masters leave, he asked the housekeeper about Miss Di's situation.

Hu Yixiu and Hu Eryang, who hadn't gone far, pursed their lips and laughed.

"You two boys are itchy, aren't you!" Cheng Xiaoxiao said as he was about to strike.

"Don't dare dare!" The two hurried forward.

A few people laughed and ran away, leaving behind a guide boy with a puzzled expression.

Cheng Xiaoxiao has a general understanding of the current situation in Linjiang County. The people can barely make ends meet. The merchants who come and go trade more aquatic products. The aristocratic families are content with wealth, but the serious collusion between government and businessmen makes imported products not only high in price, but also very popular.

And it is only in the hands of the rich and powerful families, and there are basically no shares for the common people. There are only two or three kinds of vegetables that are suitable for growing in liquid areas, and they can only be planted in spring. Therefore, in this season, there are basically no green vegetables on the tables of ordinary people.
