Thank you for your appreciation. Mistress. Kuihua immediately bowed.

Previously, when Niu Lirong was a.s.signed to the main courtyard, she feared her job would be taken over. It seemed that she was overthinking it.

Managing people is different from managing things. You must reward and punish clearly, use firm yet diplomatic methods, and be fair and just. I hope you can get everyone in the courtyard settled down as soon as possible.

Otherwise, Ill have no choice but to get someone else to do it. Do you understand?

Yes, I will make arrangements as soon as possible.

After she was done with arranging everyone, Zhou Ying returned to her room. Niu Lirong brought her a cup of tea as soon as she sat down.

Zhou Ying raised her head and said, In the future, if I dont ask for tea, theres no need to serve it. Just prepare a cup of water; it will do.

Yes, Mistress. Niu Lirongs body stiffened momentarily before she carefully stood to the side.

You dont have to be nervous. Im just letting you know my preference. What were you best at when caring for your previous young miss? Zhou Ying asked.

Preparing tea and makeup.

Zhou Ying understood that she must have previously been the young girls confidant. She continued to ask, Have you learned simple ingredient theories, such as what foods go well with each other, or the identification of poisons, and so on?

No, I have only learned what kind of const.i.tution or season would be suitable for drinking what kind of tea.

Alright, Ill leave serving tea to you in the future. Remember to check everything carefully before making tea, just in case.

I understand.

You may leave. Zhou Ying dismissed her, opened the teacup, and took a look. It was chrysanthemum tea.

Brewing a good cup of tea is an art. Compared to the tea she usually simply brewed, it was better in taste and color.

After drinking it, Zhou Ying got up and went to her study. She took out a few books from her inters.p.a.ce about what plants were suitable for growing in various soil types and picked out those for the alkali-type soil.

Turning back to Shanghe Village.

After half a year of hard work, Constable Zhang finally got to marry Gu Ziyi.

Today was the day of their engagement. At the same time, the date of their wedding was also set.

After the pleasantries, the patriarch sent him and the matchmaker away. When he was about to turn around and head home, he saw a carriage enter the village from afar.

The patriarch remembered that Manager Liu was here for their sweet potato seedlings, so he immediately went up to greet them with a smile.

He was stunned when he saw the unfamiliar coachman.

Just as he was about to turn around and walk back, he suddenly heard someone call him Father.

He turned his head and looked over. When he saw who it was, his face darkened, and he replied in a strange tone, Yo, isnt this County Magistrate Chen Peng? I dont deserve to be your father, nor do I dare to be one.

If you are here for work-related matters, go to the village chief.

If its for personal matters, youre not welcome. Ziyi has remarried, and theres no longer any connection between you two.

What? Ziyi has remarried? Chen Peng asked in astonishment.

Why are you surprised? You two have already divorced, so shes free to remarry. Isnt it normal for her to remarry when she meets a suitable person?

Hurry up and leave. Otherwise, dont blame me for gathering my clansmen to kick you out. After the patriarch finished speaking, he flung his sleeves and headed home.

Seeing this, Chen Peng hurriedly chased after him, but he was still a step too late. The door was shut in his face by the patriarch.

Father, father! Please listen to my explanation! Chen Peng immediately knocked hurriedly on the door.

The patriarch roared before he could finish his words, Get lost!

Everyone in the house was shocked by his shouts and immediately rushed out.

Especially Gu Ziyi, who felt she was hallucinating. Was that the b.a.s.t.a.r.d Chen Pengs voice?

Husband, who is it outside? Why is he calling you his father? Mrs. w.a.n.g walked over and asked..
