Seeing that Zhou Jia had instructed the waiter to deliver it, Yangyang ate in relief.

The three of them ate their snacks and walked around the streets. When they returned home, the Maizi and Mao Dou came to say that the food was delicious. Old Madam Liu even said that they could make it according to their taste.

Li Yu was in the manor. After everyone fell asleep, she entered the space and looked at the wild animals in the space. Her head hurt again. What could she do to take them out and eat them without attracting attention? When Auntie He arrived in the capital, she would get her to make them. Deerskin and wolf skin were rare in the capital.

However, now that she was pregnant, she had no excuse to say that she had gone up the mountain to hunt. Li Yu thought for a long time but couldn’t think of a solution. She could only take a knife and shave some deer bones. She brought them to the kitchen and washed them with hot water. Just as she placed them in the casserole, Auntie Zhang walked over.

When Auntie Zhang entered the kitchen and saw Li Yu, she thought that she was hungry. She smiled and said, “Madam, just let us know when you’re hungry. How can we let you do it yourself?”

Li Yu smiled. “I wanted to get some bones and simmer them on the stove for

Little Loach. He can drink it tomorrow morning. ”

Aunt Zhang looked at the bones that had been chopped into pieces and placed in the casserole. She smiled and said, “Go back and rest. I’ll add more water to the casserole and some charcoal to cover the fire. Tomorrow morning, Little Loach will be able to drink it when he wakes up.”

Li Yu nodded. “Then I’ll leave it to you.”

After coming out of the kitchen, Li Yu took the oil lamp to Little Loach’s room. She saw Little Stutterer sleeping and snoring on another small bed. Little Loach, who was sleeping on the small bed here, had tears on his face.

Li Yu sighed and gently tucked in the mosquito net for him. She thought to herself that although these children did not have to worry about food and clothing in the residence, it was not as good as being by their parents’ side once they were sick!

Li Yu turned around and came out. She stood under the eaves of the porch and listened to the frogs’ cries in the rice field outside the courtyard for a while. There was also the sound of cicadas. She turned around and returned to her room to rest.

The next morning, Earl Jianning came to apologize. When he saw Zhou Jia, he bowed and said, “Lord Zhou, it’s my fault for not teaching my son well. Please forgive my son.”

Zhou Jia saw Earl Jianning’s eyes, which were obviously swollen from crying. He did not mention what his old lady had done and felt that he was a foolishly filial person. He sighed and helped Earl Jianning up.

He smiled gently and said, “Earl Jianning, everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and the manor is not far away. Let the past be the past!”

“Lord Zhou is magnanimous. Thank you!” Earl Jianning thought of the old lady who was crying and refusing to enter the temple hall and his head hurt. He exchanged a few pleasantries with Zhou Jia and hurriedly bade farewell.

Before noon, Shen Zhong came to the Zhou family with an ordinary-looking, short, and slightly chubby medical woman with a pair of bright eyes.

When Shen Zhong saw Zhou Jia, he smiled and cupped his fists. “Lord Zhou, this is Healer Chen. His Majesty said that Healer Chen will stay at your house in the future to help take care of the young masters.”

Zhou Jia hurriedly bowed to thank him and said to Shen Zhong with a smile,

“General Shen, may I trouble you to rest for a while before leaving?”

“Lord Zhou, you’re too polite.” Shen Zhong handed the contract to Zhou Jia and cupped his fists with a smile. “I still have to report to the palace. Let’s meet again next time.”

“Thank you.” Zhou Jia smiled and sent Shen Zhong out. When he returned, Healer Chen went forward and kowtowed. “Xiuchun of the Chen family greets

Old Master.”

Zhou Jia raised his hand and helped her up. He smiled and said, “Granny Chen, there’s no need to be so polite.”

“Yes, Old Master.” Granny Chen stood up and stood respectfully at the side.

Zhou Jia said to himself, “Now that I have a medical woman, Yu’er’s pregnancy is a little stable.”

“Granny Chen, Madam went to the village. I’ll get someone to send you there.

Madam, thank you for your trouble.”

Granny Chen bent her knees and bowed. “Don’t worry, Old Master. It’s my duty.’

Zhou Jia went out to call Ji Xiang over. He pointed at Granny Chen and said to him, “This is Granny Chen. Send her to the manor to take care of Madam.”

He then said to Granny Chen, “This is Ji Xiang. There are two other stewards in the residence. One is called Zhao Cai, and the other is called Ruyi. If you need anything in the future, look for them.”

“Yes, Master.” After Granny Chen agreed and greeted Ji Xiang, Ji Xiang brought her out of the residence and walked towards the manor.

Han San stood beside the gambling table and watched casually. He stood beside the gambling table with an excited expression. He slapped the table excitedly and shouted, “Big, big, big…” Young Master Feng saw the pile of silver and copper coins in front of him being taken away. He had lost all the silver he had won.

He looked at the others winning with red eyes and muttered, “I just don’t have enough capital. Otherwise, when would he win? I would have won long ago.”

“Young Master Feng, you don’t have the capital, right? You’re the young master of the Feng family. You can borrow some capital from the shopkeeper! With the capital, you can just return it to the shopkeeper.”

Young Master Feng hesitated for a moment. “Forget it! My father will beat me to death if he finds out.”

The shop assistant pointed at the pile of silver in front of him and bewitched him. “You’re so lucky. Look, he lost a copper coin just now. He borrowed money from the shopkeeper and won such a big pile in less than an hour. I think you’re much luckier than him. When you have a big capital, you’ll definitely win more than him. Young Master Feng, let me tell you, others can’t borrow money even if they want to!”

Young Master Feng looked at the pile of silver and imagined that he could go to Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion to play after winning money. He rubbed his hands and said, “Alright, lead the way and borrow the silver from the shopkeeper.”

“Young Master is indeed bold. How can those despicable people compare to you?” The waiter eagerly brought Young Master Feng to look for the shopkeeper.

Han San watched him borrow money with a high fighting spirit and was coaxed by the waiter to the private room upstairs. Before four hours had passed, he borrowed money from the shopkeeper again. After waiting for two hours, he still did not come out of the private room.

Han San glanced at him with ridicule in his eyes. In the private room, young master Feng watched the enchanting woman lecherously. He turned around and left the blockade.

When Ji Xiang drove Granny Chen to the Wang Family Village, he told her about the rules of the Zhou family. When Granny Chen heard this, she thought to herself that if Master Zhou and Madam were really as this steward said, it was not bad to be able to retire in the Zhou family.

When Ji Xiang arrived at the Wang family’s Village, Li Yu saw that he was sweating profusely. Li Yu hurriedly asked Xing Hua to bring herbal tea to quench his thirst.

Ji Xiang gulped down a bowl of cold tea and reported to Li Yu with a smile,

“Madam, this is Granny Chen, the healer that Master asked His Majesty for.”

When Li Yu heard this, she was stunned for a moment. She felt that Zhou Jia was much more nervous than her this time. She smiled reproachfully. “Your master is really something. Even His Majesty is alarmed.” She then said to Granny Chen, “I’ll have to trouble Granny Chen in the future.”

“Madam, this is what I should do.” After Granny Chen bowed to Li Yu, Li Yu said to Xing Hua, “Xing Hua, bring Nanny to freshen up and cool down.” “Yes, Madam.” Xing Hua brought Granny Chen down to freshen up..
