“I can’t believe their guts!” Gu Wanning huffed angrily.

“It’s not too late to take action. Moreover, since they started this, you can take the opportunity to establish your hold over them.” Gu Chengcheng reminded her.

“That’s true. I’ll go over tomorrow.”

“Okay, I’ll ask Lin Yitian to accompany you. If the people there are unusable, you’d better sell them off quickly.”

“I understand.” Gu Wanning nodded in agreement.

The next morning, Lin Yitian accompanied Gu Wanning and set off. However, they did not go directly to the manor. Instead, they went home to get the manor’s head and his family’s contracts.

Lin Yitian brought the other three guards along as well.

With their company, Gu Wanning had no more worries.

When they arrived at the manor, they reminded them who was in charge. When they realized that the head of the manor was unrelenting, they immediately checked the accounts and took back the money he had earned from selling livestock without permission. They then sold these people to the south of the country.

She then appointed the manor’s head that Mrs. Gu had chosen previously.

Over the next few days, Gu Wanning brought her people to the other three manors and checked the accounts. If there were any problems, she would replace the people there.

Meanwhile, Zhou Ying was helping to take care of the shed in the manor. With her joining in, Gu Chengrui wasn’t as stressed and had more time to continue learning his medical skills.

Five days later, King Kang’s consort, Zhou Jiaying, gave birth to a baby girl in the early morning.

It was only at night that she slowly woke up. Seeing that only Nanny Yu was in the room, she struggled to poke her head out and shouted, “Mrs. Yu.” “Mistress, you woke up! How do you feel now?” Mrs. Yu quickly walked over and asked.

“I’m fine. I’m just hungry and want to eat something.”

“Okay, please wait for a moment. I’ll warm up the porridge for you.” After speaking, Mrs. Yu left and brought over a small bowl of red date millet porridge. “Mistress, hurry up and give it a sip. This had been cooking for the entire afternoon.”

Zhou Jiaying pushed it away and said,” It’s too hot, so let’s wait for a while. Has His Highness been here?”

“He did, and he brought some tonics over. After looking at Mistress, he left when he noticed you were asleep.

“He even told us to take good care of you, and if you need anything, just let him know.”

“Did he say anything about asking for a seal?”

“No, he probably wanted to wait until you woke up.” Mrs. Yu shook her head.

“Oh.” Zhou Jiaying also felt that what she said made sense, so she lay down and rested for a while before eating the porridge.

After breakfast, her family came instead of King Kang the next morning.

After sitting for a while, Mother Zhou told her a few things to take note of and went to see the baby.

Zhou Jiaqing sat down and asked, “Sis, how do you feel?”

“Fortunately, the birth went smoothly, and I didn’t suffer much.” Zhou Jiaying carefully looked at her face and said, “Good. There’s no mark on your face.”

“Of course, our father is the principal of medicine.”

“Don’t be happy too early. You have to be more careful in the future.

“By the way, I heard Mother is talking about your marriage. Is there anyone you like?”

Zhou Jiaqing shook her head dejectedly. She was in a difficult situation. The good ones didn’t fancy her, and the others were too lousy to be her husband. She was placed between a rock and a hard place.

Thinking of this, she huffed indignantly, “It’s all Zhou Ying’s fault. If she hadn’t caused me to lose face at the banquet, I would have become King Rui’s consort long ago. I wouldn’t have to be left at home to be picked and chosen.”

Zhou Jiaying was speechless. Although she wasn’t there then, she knew of the incident afterward.

To put it bluntly, Zhou Jiaqing was acting brainlessly. Her schemes failed, and she even got herself into trouble, ruining her reputation..
