Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhou Huaiming, who happened to be eating in the manor, heard Yang Wanning’s request from her maidservant and said speechlessly, “Minister Yang is getting increasingly shameless.
“If it weren’t for the support of the Gu family, he wouldn’t be where he is today. Now, he’s actively bullying his own child. How shameless.”
As he spoke, his anger grew.
Because this made him think of the current emperor.
Back then, it was also because of Zhou Huaiming’s grandfather’s 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 Dowager’s conscience and the fact that the Northern Borderline couldn’t 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 didn’t overthink it after hearing that. Instead, he told Chun Xi, “Go 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.
“Letting everyone know about the Yang family’s discrimination would be best.
“When the banquet officially begins, we’ll send the clothes for her to change into.”
“Thank you, Young Master. I will take my leave.” 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, “Send Chun Xi back in secret. Wait for her to safely return to Miss Yang’s side before returning.”
“Aye.” The secret guard responded and turned to leave.
“Thank you, Third Prince.” Gu Chengrui said.
“It’s nothing.” The Third Prince shook his head.
“I’ll get the butler to arrange the clothes and jewelry. Don’t worry about it.”
“Alright, but we will pay for this.” Gu Chengrui said.
“Sure. When it’s done, I’ll get the butler to give you the bill.” The Third Prince hesitated momentarily, but he finally nodded when he thought of his and Yang Wanning’s reputations.
After returning to the interspace at night, Gu Chengrui said, Babe, when you’re done with your work, see how Yang Wanning is doing. I hope she stays safe.” “You’re really concerned about her?” Zhou Ying looked at him in surprise.
“If she’s really a regressor, it means she is a person with a destiny or mission.
“We’ll help her whenever we can, as we might need her help in the future.” Gu Chengrui paused and continued, “But it depends on her ability. If she can’t take on the responsibility, just keep her safe.”
Zhou Ying nodded. “Alright. By the way, it’s time to harvest the rice fields. Remember to come and help me with it after you’re done.”
“Got it. I’ll go over to my end first.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he turned around and went to the other side of the river.
After Zhou Ying fulfilled all her believers’ 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 Wanning’s blanket were dark purple dresses. Be it the color or the style, it wasn’t suitable for a young lady to wear.
It seemed that Madam Cui and her nephew weren’t smart. If Yang Wanning wore these clothes, wouldn’t 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 didn’t appear to be sleeping well and was constantly muttering. She seemed to have done a lot of bad things..
