While checking out the many different places, Zhou Ying glanced at the Gu
Family and left after ensuring they were safe.
She didn’t expect that King Rui and Zhou Huaiming had gone to a Mother God Temple to offer incense.
What King Rui prayed for was for his residence to be safe.
Zhou Huaiming instead prayed that all the border crossings would be peaceful this year.
Additionally, Zhou Ying discovered that a few serious disaster-struck places, such as Pingyang Province, had already begun to run out of food.
Fortunately, traveling through the river was finally possible. Grain merchants transported grain from all over the country to these places without caring about the quality of it.
The situation was still stable after factoring in wild vegetables and stocks of dried vegetables.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying sprinkled seeds around the barren lands through her interspace—perilla, dandelion, amaranth, and hemp vegetables.
After eating the strawberries, Gu Chengrui read his medical books while Zhou Ying washed the dirty clothes and bedding in the interspace.
The next day, after the morning court session, Gu Chengrui had just left the palace gates when he bumped into Knig Kang again.
However, this time, King Kang wasn’t here to persuade him. Instead, he asked, “Cousin, I’m wondering if you have some more tomatoes in your manor? Suzhi hasn’t had an appetite recently, so I want to buy some for her to start her appetite.”
“There really isn’t any left. And as far as I know, the latest batch will be ready for harvest only in a month’s time.
“I’m sure there’s a reason for the lack of appetite. Eating some hawthorn is recommended if it is just ordinary stomach discomfort. That will have the best effect of boosting her appetite and helping her digest better.
“If she’s pregnant, she’s probably just craving preserved fruits like preserved plums.”
“Pregnant?” King Kang was stunned after hearing that and quickly remembered when Zhou Jiaying was pregnant. She had a big appetite but liked eating some strange things.
Thinking of this, he was secretly happy but also knew that the later this matter spread, the better.
He nodded and said, “I think I’m just worrying too much. Alright, I will find a doctor to take a look.”
“You sure have a caring relationship with your wife. I’ll take my leave now.” Gu Chengrui turned around and walked away after that.
On the other end, after the Empress finished her breakfast, she checked the palace accounts. She pointed to Consort Shu’s expenses and asked, “Mrs.. Yu, what did Consort Shu do? Why did her expenses suddenly increase so much?”
