“Mother, what’s wrong?” Principal Zhou looked at her in confusion.

Madam Zhou did not hide anything and told him about Zhou Ying buying over Qiu Niang’s family today. She also said she had proposed breaking off her relationship with Zhou Ying.

Principal Zhou was surprised after hearing this. “It seems that we are not fated to be together. This is fine. We will mind our own business in the future.”

“That’s right. If it’s broken, so be it. A third-grade officer of agriculture is just another word for farmer.”

“It’s only because the Emperor favors him. Otherwise, how could a scholar like him enter the Imperial Court?” Second Uncle Zhou said sourly.

However, he was quite envious. His elder brother had been in the Imperial Academy of Medicine for half his life, and he was only a fourth-grade official.

Gu Chengrui, a young scholar, relied on farming and became a third-grade officer in one step. Who wouldn’t be jealous of this?

The old madam nodded in agreement. “That’s true. A farming officer, at most, will lead a few old farmers. They won’t have the power or influence of an actual officer.”

Although the others did not say anything, they also assumed that Gu Chengrui would not have little potential.

Of course, they were still envious of Gu Chengrui getting a third-grade official position. At the very least, his monthly salary and status were higher than theirs.

When she heard the news, Zhou Jiaqing, who was lying on her bed, covered her head and groaned. She was so enraged that she jumped out of bed and spat, “Why? Why did that scumbag become a third-grade official?

“No wonder Zhou Ying is so arrogant now. She has a backer and doesn’t need to be careful around me anymore, huh?”

The servant girl who reported this to her did not dare to say a word.

Zhou Jiaqing thought of something and asked, “By the way, did Zisu bring that bitch Haitang back?”

“Miss, Sister Zisu saw that you were unconscious and was too focused on saving you. So, so, she didn’t have the time to go over.”

Zhou Jiaqing was so angry that she threw her cup on the ground and yelled, “Bitch, there are so many of you good-for-nothings. Do you need her to stay? Get her to come here!”

After shouting, she felt dizzy, and her head felt like needles were prickling into it. Zhou Jiaqing immediately fell onto her bed and hugged her head as she cried out in pain.

The servant girl was shocked by this and immediately turned around to call for Principal Zhou.

On the other end, Yang Wanning smiled after receiving the news.

As for the First Prince and the others, they didn’t take Gu Chengrui’s promotion to heart. After all, he was just a farmer and had nothing to do with them.

Early the next morning, Zhou Ying asked Granny Ma to lead her to a nearby market. She wanted to buy vegetables to prepare food at her new residence to entertain Yang Wanning.

Few people were in the market, and most of the vegetables sold were dried wild vegetables.

Of course, some were selling carrots and cabbages, but the quantity was tiny, and the price was high. One pound of cabbage was being sold for two coppers.

There were also people selling firewood, wild animals, and fish.

As for the proper butcher shops, only one sold pork, but the meat was lean, and they were selling it for 30 copper coins per pound.

She looked at Granny Ma and asked, “Does the Prince’s manor have its own farm to provide daily ingredients?”

“Yes, every prominent family has a fixed food supply, and they can exchange what they need afterward.”

“They only come to the vegetable market to replenish if their residence lacks any.

“Or when they want to buy some wild game for a change of taste, very few people buy anything from the market in large quantities.” Old Granny Ma said.

Zhou Ying nodded in understanding. She returned late yesterday, so she didn’t go to the manor.

It seemed that she really had to go over as soon as possible.

At the very least, she had to confirm what food was available at their manor. Otherwise, after leaving the Prince’s mansion, she would not be able to afford anything to eat, or at least not openly..
