“Thank you, Madam, for giving me this name. 1 swear to be loyal to you.” Shizhu immediately bowed.

“There’s no need to swear that. Just do your best.

“In the future, you’ll work by my side.

“As for Kuihua, you’ll be in charge of all the courtyard affairs. Also, go and ask Mother Qiu for an elderly woman to help you with some menial work.

“Alright, you two can go on with your work.”

“Yes.” The two girls responded, then turned around and walked out.

After they left, Zhou Ying poured two cups of tea. After drinking it, she went inside to practice her calligraphy.

On the other side, after Yang Wanning and Chun Xi returned to the residence, they did not return to their small courtyard directly. Instead, they walked to the pavilion beside the lotus pond in the backyard.

After confirming that no one was around, Yang Wanning asked, “Chun Xi, who else touches the pot of tea leaves that you usually deal with?”

“The little servant girl from the small kitchen, Qiao’er.”

“Qiao’er, that thirteen-year-old little servant girl?”

“Yes, I usually make tea in the kitchen; I don’t avoid her.”

“Keep an eye on her and see if she did it. We must find the person behind the scenes from her.” Yang Wanning’s eyes flashed coldly as she said this.

She felt that her mother might not have just frozen to death and that her death might somehow be connected to the Hardy Ice Plant.

“I understand.”

“Be careful, especially when it comes to food. You have to be careful too, and don’t eat anything of unknown origin.”

“Yes.”

After that, the two of them chatted for a while more before getting up and returning to their small courtyard.

On the other hand, Lian Qiao slowly returned to her courtyard and was about to hide in the kitchen when Zhou Jiaqing, who was waiting for her, called her in and asked, “How is it? How many people have we arranged that have managed to enter?”

“None, none of them went in.” Lian Qiao lowered her head and replied carefully.

Zhou Jiaqing was stunned and asked, “What’s going on? Why didn’t any of them enter?”

“1,1 don’t know either. I heard that when they were choosing servants, they just took a glance and eliminated most of the choices.

“They didn’t even buy enough of what they were planning on buying.”

“Trash, so you haven’t even found the reason?”

“On the surface, there are only two reasons. One is to require someone with cooking skills, and the other is martial arts skills.

“However, one of the people I arranged to enter knew how to cook, but for some reason, she was eliminated in the first round.”

“When did Zhou Ying become so smart?”

Lian Qiao lowered her head even more. Honestly, she didn’t understand how Zhou Ying could completely avoid choosing the people she arranged to infiltrate their place.

“Go down, ask around, and wait for her to buy more servants next time.” Zhou Jiaqing waved her hand in annoyance.

Lian Qiao immediately nodded and ran away.

Zhou Jiaqing looked at her and snorted coldly, “She doesn’t have much courage, but she sure has a lot of ambition. Useless”

After that, she started to plan how to deal with Zhou Ying.

However, she was aware that she had recently suffered greatly due to Zhou Ying. She must not be rash this time. It was preferable to hit her with a single strike; otherwise, she would be in a bad position.

At night, after the couple was done with their work in the space, they cooked two bowls of wontons and ate them.

Gu Chengrui asked, “Ying’er, can you help me get a bottle of high blood pressure medicine?”

“Why? Do you want to give Madam Consort An those medicines?”

“Yes, her symptoms are very serious. It’s very difficult to control them with only traditional medicine.

“Besides King Rui, she’s probably our best backer, so we must keep her alive..”
