“Your father had the same idea. He said he has a subordinate who runs a pharmacy and comes from a good family. He wanted to discuss this matter once his subordinate came to the capital to deliver medicine in the spring.” Mother Zhou then asked, “By the way, how are things on your side? His Highness doesn’t mind that the baby is a daughter, right?”

“Not really.”

“That’s good. Your mother has lived most of her life understanding one thing.

“Fighting for favor isn’t to suppress other women, but to keep a man’s heart.

“As long as his heart is still with you, you don’t have to be afraid of anything.

“In the future, you should pay more attention to him, go along with him more, and give in sometimes. Don’t blindly compete and win over others. Or else, you’ll lose his heart like your mother.”

“I will remember it.” Zhou Jiaying nodded.

After that, the mother and daughter chatted more before Mother Zhou brought Zhou Jiaqing home.

In the evening, Zhou Ying told Gu Chengrui about the orders by the various families and asked, “How are things on your side? If you don’t have enough to sell to all of them, I can take some out of inters.p.a.ce to make up for it.”

“Don’t; I will harvest as much as I can. I will just send less to each family, or else if our harvest doesn’t match, the people in the manor will be suspicious.

“But I won’t bring any vegetables back to our residence. If you want to eat some, you need to tell me in advance, and I’ll bring some over before s.h.i.+pping everything away.”

“Alright, hurry up and send them over. We can still plant another batch before the New Year.”

“Yeah.” Gu Chengrui nodded.

For the next two days, Gu Chengrui delivered vegetables to the various residences, including the imperial palace, and planted another batch of vegetables.

Zhou Ying continued teaching Gu Wanning martial arts and helped her prepare her dowry.

She would head to her manor or Yang Chenglin’s manor when bored. She requested they keep some livestock cubs, especially pigs, in preparation for next year.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the year, and they sold yet another batch of leafy vegetables.

At the same time, Sun Hongliang sent someone to deliver a pig, two sheep, and a cow through King Rui’s men.

Zhou Ying asked Lin Yitian to send half a pig to their manor after receiving the livestock.

After Gu Chengrui found out that Zhou Huaiming had returned to the capital, he invited him to spend the New Year at his house every day except for the eve of the New Year.

As a result, Zhou Huaiming gained more than ten pounds in half a month.

On the 15th, at the imperial family’s Lantern Festival banquet, everyone was surprised to see him all fattened.

King Rui patted his shoulder and said, “Cousin, if you continue to eat like this, be careful that you won’t even be able to hold your sword in the future.”

“Speaking of which, it’s all Miss Zhou’s fault. If it weren’t for the fact that her cooking is so delicious, I wouldn’t have stuffed myself full every time.”

“Humble brag.”

“Hehe, I really can’t help it. It’s too delicious.” Zhou Huaiming said with an awkward smile before turning serious, “Oh right, I heard that the scale of this banquet is large. Even officials from other places who came to the capital to take the examination have been invited. Is the Emperor planning something huge?”

“Not really. I heard that the main purpose of this banquet is to treat everyone to a meal and discuss this year’s plans, especially the promotion of sweet potatoes and greenhouses.”

“Are you referring to the greenhouse vegetables? I heard that Gu Chengrui delivered half of the harvest to the palace.”

“Yes, no matter what, the successful planting of greenhouse vegetables has solved the problem of eating vegetables in winter in the north. It’s worth promoting to great lengths.”

“Great to hear.” Zhou Huaiming let out a sigh of relief.

“Let’s go. Follow me to the Emperor’s study to report this year’s deployment.” After saying that, King Rui walked straight to the study.

Zhou Huaiming immediately followed after him.

Zhou Ying brought Gu Wanning into the palace, and she headed to visit the Empress Dowager.

Because there were too many people, she only exchanged a few polite greetings before following Princess Mingyu to the side hall..
