After he left, Zhou Dasheng walked over and reported, “Mistress, all the items have been stored in the warehouse.

“But what about the chickens? Should they be raised here or sent to the manor?”

“How many are there?”

“There are two roosters and ten hens. It looks like they have already started laying eggs.”

“I see; let’s keep them in the stable here. That way, it will be convenient to have eggs in the residence.” Zhou Ying added, “As for the frozen sheep, put them in the ice cellar.

“I was thinking of holding a small housewarming party after Chengrui finishes his work. Then, everyone can eat and enjoy a meal together.

“By the way, how much rice is there?”

“There’s rice, but it’s not milled yet. There are about 200 pounds of new rice plants.”

“I see. then these new rice plants will be planted as seeds for next year’s harvest.”

Zhou Dasheng nodded in agreement, saying, “1 understand. I will store it well.”

“Good, you may leave.” Zhou Ying nodded, went to the kitchen, and told Biaozi how to make dried sweet potatoes before returning to her room.

She then opened the letters. First, it was a list of dowries; she unfurled it and read it, noticing it was exactly the same as Madam Cui’s, but it looked a little new.

Another letter seemed to be from Second Uncle Gu.

It briefly described the situation at home and emphasized the news that Madam Qiao was sick.

He mentioned that her body was not as great as before and asked them to return to visit when they were free.

Another point was to reassure them that they would stay in their hometown obediently and not drag them down.

After Zhou Ying finished reading it, she just sighed and lamented that Madam Qiao still had a heart.

However, that was all. She then put the letters away and waited for Gu Chengrui to return before dealing with them.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed. Gu Chengrui was finally done with the work at his greenhouse.

After entering her interspace at night, Zhou Ying told him that Zhou Huaiming had returned and handed him the letters.

Gu Chengrui took the letters and read them carefully.

When he read that Madam Qiao had fallen ill because of the news of his aunt’s death, he only smiled sarcastically.

He had not forgotten how they were almost tortured to death by the Gu family when they had just transmigrated.

Although Madam Qiao had some compassion at that time, she still selfishly watched them get expelled from the house.

Later on, although she felt guilty and blamed herself, that was because they had made a name for themselves. Didn’t that mean the act of her penance was because she wanted to take advantage of them? Otherwise, she would probably never interact with them again.

Of course, since she had given them enough respect, he would also make up for it for her.

He went to his study room and wrote a letter filled with concern. Finally, he attached two prescriptions and asked the Gu family to confirm them with Doctor Luo.

At the same time, he also wrote a letter to Doctor Luo, mainly to thank him for his hard work in running the clinic.

Moreover, it also meant that Doctor Luo did not need to split him any dividends before he returned. He only requested that Doctor Luo continue teaching Gu Chengxi medical skills.

After the two of them were done with their work, Zhou Ying told him about the housewarming party she was preparing. “Since there’s mutton, let’s take the opportunity to hold a party. What do you think?”

“Sure, let’s hold it the day after tomorrow before the Third Prince’s wedding. Get someone to make three Mandarin Duck Pots tomorrow.

“Also, look for a place that sells beef, fish, and shrimp.”

“Don’t worry about that. I’ll arrange for it. But who do we have to invite?”

“Let’s go with the previous arrangement. King Rui, Brother Zhou, Yang Wanning, and her brother, There’s also King An’s Imperial Residence, a few of my subordinates, and the three heads of the Ministry of Works.”

“In that case, three tables would probably be enough.”

“Yeah, let’s prepare three tables. One for the women and two for the men..”
