Zhou Huaiming, who happened to be eating in the manor, heard Yang Wanningâs request from her maidservant and said speechlessly, âMinister Yang is getting increasingly shameless.
âIf it werenât for the support of the Gu family, he wouldnât be where he is today. Now, heâs actively bullying his own child. How shameless.â
As he spoke, his anger grew.
Because this made him think of the current emperor.
Back then, it was also because of Zhou Huaimingâs grandfatherâs support that the current Emperor could ascend to the throne.
However, as soon as his throne was secured, he began to settle accounts with the Zhou family and caused the death of his aunt.
If not for the Empress Dowagerâs conscience and the fact that the Northern Borderline couldnât live without his father, their entire family, including the Third Prince, would have long become a pile of bones.
After the Third Prince heard his anger, he only silently glanced at him and did not say anything.
Gu Chengrui didnât overthink it after hearing that. Instead, he told Chun Xi, âGo back and tell your young miss that we will help her prepare clothes and jewelry, but when she goes out tomorrow, she should wear the clothes the Yang family prepared for her.
âLetting everyone know about the Yang familyâs discrimination would be best.
âWhen the banquet officially begins, weâll send the clothes for her to change into.â
âThank you, Young Master. I will take my leave.â Chun Xi responded and left.
The Third Prince thought of Yang Wanning, who shared the same fate as her, and was afraid that this servant girl would have an accident on the way. He called a secret guard and said, âSend Chun Xi back in secret. Wait for her to safely return to Miss Yangâs side before returning.â
âAye.â The secret guard responded and turned to leave.
âThank you, Third Prince.â Gu Chengrui said.
âItâs nothing.â The Third Prince shook his head.
âIâll get the butler to arrange the clothes and jewelry. Donât worry about it.â
âAlright, but we will pay for this.â Gu Chengrui said.
âSure. When itâs done, Iâll get the butler to give you the bill.â The Third Prince hesitated momentarily, but he finally nodded when he thought of his and Yang Wanningâs reputations.
After returning to the interspace at night, Gu Chengrui said, Babe, when youâre done with your work, see how Yang Wanning is doing. I hope she stays safe.â âYouâre really concerned about her?â Zhou Ying looked at him in surprise.
âIf sheâs really a regressor, it means she is a person with a destiny or mission. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWeâll help her whenever we can, as we might need her help in the future.â Gu Chengrui paused and continued, âBut it depends on her ability. If she canât take on the responsibility, just keep her safe.â
Zhou Ying nodded. âAlright. By the way, itâs time to harvest the rice fields. Remember to come and help me with it after youâre done.â
âGot it. Iâll go over to my end first.â After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he turned around and went to the other side of the river.
After Zhou Ying fulfilled all her believersâ requests that she could, she went to look for Yang Wanning again.
At that moment, Yang Wanning was memorizing a poem intently. Beside her was an exquisite purse she had made herself, and she got ready for dance practice after memorizing the poem.
Only when it was almost midnight did she lie down on the bed and fall asleep.
At this moment, Zhou Ying also realized that the new clothes under Yang Wanningâs blanket were dark purple dresses. Be it the color or the style, it wasnât suitable for a young lady to wear.
It seemed that Madam Cui and her nephew werenât smart. If Yang Wanning wore these clothes, wouldnât they also be putting themselves to shame? It was an unnecessary double-edged sword.
When Zhou Ying turned to look at Madam Chui, she was already asleep. She didnât appear to be sleeping well and was constantly muttering. She seemed to have done a lot of bad things..
