After half a month passed in a row, Bai Zheng had almost never been home before, so Bai Yinan had no objections to this matter.

When Bai Zheng heard the words ”The girls that haven't left the pavilion to show their faces all the time is not a good thing, if they were to be recognized, it would cause criticism”, he did not explain further.

He had only mentioned the names of Feng Linyuan and Soong Yiqing, and had repeatedly assured Madame Lin that she would definitely abide by her responsibilities, only then did Madame Lin give up.

After pacifying the Madame Lin, Bai Zheng was even busier, leaving early and returning late in a few days in a row.

He wanted to talk to the farmers in the villages outside the city about farming the fields, and he also sought out craftsmen who specialized in planting flowers and plants to understand how to grow them.

When he was free, he had to check on the progress of the craftsmen's decor in the shop.

After arranging everything, when Bai Zheng could catch her breath, it was already the start of spring.

The grass grew and birds flew. It was a good time to grow flowers and grasses.

Under Bai Zheng's instructions, the 500 mu of fertile land started to be tidied up, and the rose, Jasmine, Gardenia flower seedlings that Bai Zheng purchased, as well as aloe, mint, basil and other plants with green leaves were planted.

During this period of time, there was no lack of kind-hearted farmers to persuade her that five hundred acres of land could not be used to grow all these flashy things, but at least some food.

However, when Bai Zheng heard these words, she only smiled and did not pay any attention to them.

In comparison, because Song Jun had Soong Yiqing's instructions, the craftsmen inside were much more obedient, they only focused on improving the porcelain according to Bai Zheng's requirements, and the finished products that came out made Bai Zheng very satisfied.

As for the crafting furnace, after half a month of failure, it had gradually gotten back on track and produced a finished product that Bai Zheng was satisfied with.

As for Soong Yiqing, with Bai Zheng's help, they successfully opened the first paper shop.

Because of the commotion caused at the Treasure-collecting Tower Auction, the entire Yongding City had been looking forward to seeing this piece of paper for a long time.

As a result, the paper shop started to have good business from the start, which reduced Soong Yiqing's resentment towards Bai Zheng by a lot.

So much so that when Bai Zheng bumped into him on her way to visit Feng Linyuan several times, he would be called ”If you encounter any trouble at the kiln, just let me know” with great concern.

Bai Zheng could only agree repeatedly.

Although she had not rested for more than a month, Bai Zheng was still full of energy everyday, waiting to leave early and return late.

It was to the extent that a group of outsiders came to his Yongding City, and it was even more so the case that at some point in time, there were many people coming and going who did not notice it.

That day, after eating breakfast, Bai Zheng pulled Qingshao and Zhuling along as usual, disguised as men's clothes, went around the rear courtyard, and exited through the back door according to their usual route.

The sun was warm now, and the sky was getting brighter. People in the backyard had already gotten up early.

Bai Zheng had already gotten used to it. At this point in time, she would encounter a chef who would bring a basket of ingredients back.

But today, seeing carts of meat and vegetables being pulled into the house from the back door, Bai Zheng was completely stunned.

”Miss, do you feel that there have been a lot of people coming and going in our residence these past few days?” Zhuling looked around and asked softly.

Hearing that, Bai Zheng looked around, only then did she realise that unknowingly, there were many people that she had never seen before, and her suspicions grew.

Did something happen in the mansion?

She took a few steps into the inner courtyard, grabbed a servant girl who was wiping the stone pedestals on the side of the corridor, and asked, ”This sister, what are you guys busy with?”
