After picking up a lucky girl, all the beasts line up to come to your door

He gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Do you believe I can do this to you?"

Cheng Zishi said "oh" perfunctorily, and asked Mu Pingping and others to bring the mountain products to Rong Jing.

"The mountain products I told you about yesterday were all good things from the mountains."

Rong Jing's attention was instantly diverted and he was no longer angry.

He casually picked up a Ganoderma lucidum and weighed it in his hand. "This Ganoderma lucidum is at least three hundred years old. It's an extremely good thing."

"Where did you find it?"

Cheng Zishi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why do you care where I found it? Just tell me whether you want it or not."

"If you don't want it, there are plenty of people who want it."

Mountain products are not uncommon for large families, but they are not very common good things either.

Especially good things like Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng are must-haves for large families.

The older the Ganoderma ginseng is, the harder it is to find.

Rong Jing knew he was joking, "Okay, okay, I'll take them all."

He took out a few banknotes from his sleeve and handed them to Mu Baobao, "Little girl, these are your family's mountain products, right? Here are the banknotes I used to buy them."

Mu Baobao first looked at Cheng Zishi, and when he saw him nod, he took the banknote with both hands.

"Thank you, uncle, you are a good person." She said with a smile.

Rong Jing could see that this little girl was a money-grubber.

"Zishi, where did you find that little girl? She's much more interesting than those girls from big families."

Cheng Zishi said, "My students, these are all my students."

"But the baby is my savior. She was the one who brought me out of this situation."

Rong Jing knew what happened to Cheng Zishi, and also knew why he chose to travel.

He looked at Mu Baobao with a different look in his eyes. "Such a little girl is really capable."

"Uncle, how much silver is here?" Mu Baobao held the banknote in front of Cheng Zishi with an excited look on his face.

Cheng Zishi looked at a few banknotes and said, "Six thousand taels."

This was beyond Mu Baobao's comprehension. She tilted her head and asked, "How much silver is that?"

Cheng Zishi patiently explained, "Didn't the uncle tell you yesterday?"

"This money is enough for your family to buy a big house and a shop in Rongdu, and then live a comfortable and good life."

Now, Mubaobao understood. She exclaimed, "That's a lot of silver."

She handed the banknote to Mu Pingping, "Brother, keep it for you."

Mu Pingping's hands were shaking as he carefully put the banknote away. This was a banknote worth six thousand taels.

In the past, he would never have imagined that his family could earn such a large sum of money.

"Baby, if you have any problems in the future, you can find this uncle, remember?" Cheng Zishi said.

Mu Baobao didn't quite understand, "Uncle, is this uncle really that powerful?"

Cheng Zishi hummed, "His father, Duke Dingguo, is in charge of an army of 200,000 men."

Mu Baobao's eyes were blank, as these words were beyond her understanding.

Cheng Zishi explained, "His father is a great general, very powerful."

Mu Baobao still didn't understand, "Uncle, his father is a general, that's because his father is so powerful, does it have anything to do with him?"

"If he were a great general, he would be really powerful."

"Just like the uncle, getting what you want on your own is amazing."

Rong Jing's expression froze, and he looked at her in surprise, "This little girl..."

"You know a lot, don't you?" Cheng Zishi understood his feelings. "The baby may be small, but he knows a lot."

"Sometimes her blunt words may be hard to hear, but they are very effective."

Mu Baobao asked, "Uncle?"

Cheng Zishi patted her head and let her go down to play. "Play in the private room. Don't go out. Okay?"

Baby Mu said "oh" obediently, then pulled his brothers to play hide-and-seek in the private room.

Cheng Zishi glanced at Mu Baobao and the others and then ignored them.

"Judging from the way you look, there's no problem." Rong Jing picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"When the Cheng family got into trouble, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to bear it."

Cheng Zishi slowly shook his head, "No, after all, it was me who ruined the Cheng family."

Rong Jing knew this inside information and asked curiously, "How did you figure it out?"

"I have advised you to leave the Cheng family many times before, but you refused."

Cheng Zishi said, "Thanks to the baby."

“During my time in the village, I figured out a lot of things.”

"Later, Dr. Deng persuaded me again, and I decided to do this."

Rong Jing was quite emotional, "You said, this kind of thing is really hard to predict."

"Before, I advised you for so long, but you didn't listen. Then, you went out and encountered some things, and you woke up."

Cheng Zishi smiled and didn't mention it again, "Are you still planning to play like this?"

Rong Jing leaned back in his chair, supporting his head with one hand, "I haven't thought about it yet."

"You know my family's situation. My father is already very eye-catching."

"Although the emperor doesn't suspect my father, there's no guarantee the next emperor won't."

Since ancient times, ministers who hold military power are easily suspected by kings.

Cheng Zishi understood this, "But you can't just play around like this forever, you have to find something to do."

Rong Jing spread his hands and said, "I haven't decided what to do yet."

He suddenly sat up straight and asked, "Are you going to report to the Imperial College tomorrow?"

Cheng Zishi guessed his thoughts, "Do you want to work in the Imperial College?"

"You have to think clearly. Your father is a general with great military power. If you enter the Imperial College again, there's no guarantee that people won't think too much."

Rong Jing understood this, "I thought, I'll just be a handyman in the Imperial College, and I won't fight for any official position."

He winked and said, "Let's see later."

Cheng Zishi understood what he meant, that they should wait and see what the situation would be after the new emperor ascended the throne.

"Also."

He agreed, "You should stay in the Imperial College first. The Imperial College can be considered as a backup plan."

"It's just right that you are here to protect these children."

"These children are ordered by the Emperor to keep an eye on Prince Zheng during his lessons."

Rong Jing understood his good intentions and was quite surprised. "Can they keep a close eye on that troublesome little devil, Prince Zheng?"

"Even the Emperor can't do anything to Prince Zheng."

Among all the princes and grandchildren of the emperor, the one most favored by the emperor is Prince Zheng.

Cheng Zishi raised his chin towards Mu Baobao and said, "It's not Pingping and the others. Zheng Shizi and Baobao are friends. I don't want Baobao to ignore him."

Rong Jing was even more surprised. "What's the reason?"

Cheng Zishi said, "Maybe it was the life-saving grace plus the good impression. It's hard to say."

Rong Jing nodded in agreement, "Then I'll go to the Imperial College with you tomorrow?"

"Come to think of it, when I was studying at the Imperial College, I was the type of person that gave the professor a headache."

Cheng Zishi knew that he was pretending to be like that on purpose for the future of his family.

Rong Jing did not mention this matter anymore, and instead talked about the major events that happened in Rongdu: "Did you know that the Shangguan family is preparing to split up."
