Wei Mingyong had opened his mouth, so Wei Minghong naturally would not be able to fall behind, and said stiffly: Father, don't worry, even if you didn't mention this, I will definitely arrange it."
Although the two brothers were unwilling, they dared not deceive the old man. After returning, they each prepared some things and took them to the old man's place. After the old man checked them, he sent people to load and transport them to Xingshan County.

In late July, Wei Ruo received a reply from Mojiazha's side.
On behalf of the villagers, Li Zheng wrote back to Wei Ruo, assuring her that after this year's grain harvest at Mojiazha, he would keep the next year's grain, and then sell the extra grain to Wei Ruo at the normal local price.
Their village planted rice seeds given by Wei Ruo, and Wei Ruo taught them a lot of planting knowledge, which made their village's rice yield for several years far higher than other villages around.
In this way, the living conditions of the originally poor Mojiazha had been significantly improved. They could have enough food and clothing. In addition to being self-sufficient, they could also have surplus grain to be sold for money.
The villagers remember her kindness, so no matter how much the grain price changes later on, they will sell it to Wei Ruo at the usual price.
Coal had also been contacted and a batch had been purchased in advance from Huzhou Prefecture. It would be shipped over in a while.
Both the current situation and the memories of the original protagonist told Wei Ruo that this year would be a difficult year, with cold weather and food shortage being the two major problems plaguing Xingshan County.
Faced with these problems, Wei Ruo must set up a plan.
"Miss, do you really have to spend so much money on grain and coal? You almost spent everything you have." Xiumei was a little worried.
Wei Ruo had already spent most of the money she had saved to buy Xiaoyang Mountain, and now she had to spend another 500 taels of silver to buy grain and coal, which almost emptied out all the money she had saved.
"Flowing water does not rot, money can make money, and silver itself is just a cold iron lump. Only when it can be exchanged for what I want, that silver could be meaningful."
"Miss, it’s good as long as you have a plan. You are not allowed to carry burdens on your own. Me, the nanny, and Uncle Xu can share your worries and solve the problem for you." Xiumei said.
"Don't worry, Meimei. Your young lady is really good at making money!" Wei Ruo smiled and then touched her stomach. "It's just that I've been thinking too hard, and my stomach gets hungry."
"Alright, alright, I understand, I'll get some snacks! Those seafood that I bought last time are all dried up, how about I go and roast a dried squid for you?"
"Okay, roast some more and send some to my second brother as well."
"Okay, no problem!"
Xiumei went to take out the dried squid that had just been dried a while ago, went to Yingzhu garden next door, and borrowed the charcoal in their small kitchen to grill it.
After roasting it, it was divided into two parts. One part was left in the Yingzhu Garden for Xiaobei to take to Wei Jinyi, and the remaining part was brought back to Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo finished nibbling on a fragrant and crispy roasted dried squid and happily stayed in her room busy all afternoon.
On the other side, Wei Jinyi also savored the roasted dried squid sent by Wei Ruo.
Xiaobei sighed emotionally beside him: "Young master, the eldest young lady is really kind to you. She thinks of you in everything she does!"
