“Indeed, my ambition is not to be an official, so I didn’t partic.i.p.ate.” Gu Chengrui nodded.
“So you will continue to be a third-grade official?” Mrs. Liu asked.
“Yes, the Ministry of Agriculture relies on farming skills. There’s no need to take the imperial examination.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he got up to get some wine and had a few drinks with Gu Chengen.
While eating, Mrs. Liu saw that Zhou Ying did not eat meat. Confused, she asked, “Zhou Ying, why aren’t you eating the meat?”
“Ying’er is pregnant and has morning sickness. She’ll just have a bowl of egg soup later.” Gu Chengrui said.
Mrs. Liu was stunned for a moment and smiled. “Congratulations. It’s not easy for you to get pregnant.”
Gu Chengrui smiled and did not reply.
On the other hand, Gu Chengye and the other two immediately expressed their joy.
“Brother Chengen, is Sister Ziyi married to Constable Zhang?” Gu Chengrui asked after the meal.
“I wanted to wait for you to come back before having the wedding, but the old lady of the Zhang family was anxious, so they rushed to get married before the new year. I heard that Chen is dead?” Gu Chengen asked.
“Yes, he was beheaded last autumn. The day before, his wife came to ask for help, but we chased her out.”
“She’s really shameless. She stole Ziyi’s man and now wants us to save her.” Mrs. Liu growled.
“By the way, how’s your clinic’s business?” Gu Chengye asked.
“It’s fine. I’m just a little tired.”
“Why don’t you hire a few more doctors?”
“Mhm, I will do that.”
After chatting for a while and finis.h.i.+ng a pot of tea, Mrs. Liu and the other three returned to their courtyard.
The next morning, after dinner, Mrs. Liu asked Zhou Ying for a carriage to send her back to the Liu family in the West District.
Mrs. Liu’s sister, Aunt Liu, was stunned when she saw Mrs. Liu. “Sister, when did you return to the capital?”
“I just arrived yesterday. Is everything okay at home?” After Mrs. Liu finished speaking, she ushered the coachman to go back.
“It’s alright. I planted a greenhouse with Lord Gu for a year last year, and our days are finally much better.” After Aunt Liu updated her status, she led her into the house.
“Good to hear that. Can you accompany me to our parents ‘graves? We’ll talk when we get back.”
“Why? From the sound of it, you still want to go back to the countryside?”
“That depends on Chengye’s results. If he can pa.s.s the exams and stay in the capital, I’ll stay.
“Otherwise, it’s better to go back to the countryside.”
“Isn’t Gu Chengrui in the capital?”
Mrs. Liu laughed dryly. “It’s not that comfortable here. It’s okay to stay temporarily, but it’s not convenient to stay for a long time.”
She wanted to move over, but her family disagreed. She didn’t have the face to do so, either.
The key was that Zhou Ying would not let her stay.
Moreover, they were now the Emperor’s favorites, with Gu Wanning helping them in the palace. For the sake of her son’s future, she did not dare get into a conflict with them.
“That’s true. If it doesn’t work, you can buy a small courtyard to live in first.
“It depends.”
On the other end, Gu Chengye and Gu Chengsi went out after dinner and visited Gu Chengye’s benefactors and cla.s.smates.
Meanwhile, Gu Chengen brought a manservant out for shopping.
After Zhou Ying knew they had all gone out, she was happy. She went out to choose the dowry for Mingyu and the wedding gift for Zhou Huaiming.
After that, Zhou Ying paid little attention to them, besides providing them with good food and drinks.
In the blink of an eye, it was February 18th.
Because there were too many people going to King An’s Imperial Residence, Zhou Ying had given Mingyu a set of red coral jewelry the afternoon before.
On the day itself, as Zhou Ying was pregnant and it was getting inconvenient, Gu Chengrui brought Gu Chengye and Gu Chengsi to the Zhou residence to congratulate Minyu and Zhou Huaiming’s wedding..
