Chapter 619: Chapter 619 Looking For A Companion
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
While checking out the many different places, Zhou Ying glanced at the Gu
Family and left after ensuring they were safe.
She didn’t expect that King Rui and Zhou Huaiming had gone to a Mother G.o.d Temple to offer incense.
What King Rui prayed for was for his residence to be safe.
Zhou Huaiming instead prayed that all the border crossings would be peaceful this year.
Additionally, Zhou Ying discovered that a few serious disaster-struck places, such as Pingyang Province, had already begun to run out of food.
Fortunately, traveling through the river was finally possible. Grain merchants transported grain from all over the country to these places without caring about the quality of it.
The situation was still stable after factoring in wild vegetables and stocks of dried vegetables.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying sprinkled seeds around the barren lands through her inters.p.a.ce—perilla, dandelion, amaranth, and hemp vegetables.
She also released a batch of wild ducks, eggs, fish, and shrimp into their river before leaving.
After she was done, she picked another batch of strawberries and stored them. “Woof, woof…” A dog barked, and Zhou Ying turned her head to see Gu Chengrui crossing the river with Er Zhuang.
Zhou Ying smiled and waved her hand.
When Er Zhuang heard her call, he barked even louder and ran even faster. Zhou Ying threw a strawberry the size of a child’s fist directly in front of it.
The strawberry was promptly eaten by Er Zhuang, who sprang up and ran to her side while wagging his tail.
Zhou Ying saw this and gave him a plate of strawberries.
When he lowered his head to eat the strawberries, Zhou Ying asked, “Rui, why is he here? Isn’t he living comfortably over there?”
“It’s spring, so I think he’s going into heat.
“He’s barking at the cows and sheep daily, scaring them so much that they aren’t eating enough. That’s why I brought him with me.
“Bring him to the manor tomorrow and find a companion for him. It’s better for him to live outside.”
“That’s true. It’ll be safer if there’s a dog around too.” Zhou Ying agreed and picked out a large plate of strawberries. “Let’s go and eat these strawberries. They’re sweet and tart.”
Gu Chengrui nodded and returned to the villa with her.
After eating the strawberries, Gu Chengrui read his medical books while Zhou Ying washed the dirty clothes and bedding in the inters.p.a.ce.
The next day, after the morning court session, Gu Chengrui had just left the palace gates when he b.u.mped into Knig Kang again.
However, this time, King Kang wasn’t here to persuade him. Instead, he asked, “Cousin, I’m wondering if you have some more tomatoes in your manor? Suzhi hasn’t had an appet.i.te recently, so I want to buy some for her to start her appet.i.te.”
“There really isn’t any left. And as far as I know, the latest batch will be ready for harvest only in a month’s time.
“I’m sure there’s a reason for the lack of appet.i.te. Eating some hawthorn is recommended if it is just ordinary stomach discomfort. That will have the best effect of boosting her appet.i.te and helping her digest better.
“If she’s pregnant, she’s probably just craving preserved fruits like preserved plums.”
“Pregnant?” King Kang was stunned after hearing that and quickly remembered when Zhou Jiaying was pregnant. She had a big appet.i.te but liked eating some strange things.
Thinking of this, he was secretly happy but also knew that the later this matter spread, the better.
He nodded and said, “I think I’m just worrying too much. Alright, I will find a doctor to take a look.”
“You sure have a caring relations.h.i.+p with your wife. I’ll take my leave now.” Gu Chengrui turned around and walked away after that.
On the other end, after the Empress finished her breakfast, she checked the palace accounts. She pointed to Consort Shu’s expenses and asked, “Mrs.. Yu, what did Consort Shu do? Why did her expenses suddenly increase so much?”
