At night, Gu Chengrui came home, and everyone had a meal together. After getting to know each other, they went back to their rooms.

Gu Chengrui later said, “Babe, I’m resting tomorrow. Can you prepare some things? We’ll go to the Yang Residence and the Imperial Residence of King An.”

“Sure. We can’t be insensible, even if Yang Shicheng and the others are.” Zhou Ying nodded in agreement.

She got ready to prepare some gifts.

After entering her interspace, she made six kinds of desserts and a bottle of wild honey for each family.

Also, she prepared an extra serving of saffron and a pound of bird’s nest for Consort An.

The couple then enjoyed their night because they finally had their own home.

As a result, she woke up late the next day. When she woke up, Manager Xiao had already brought a group of people in.

The two of them did not eat and went straight to the front yard.

“Xiao Bing greets Lord Gu and Madam Gu.” When Manager Xiao saw them coming over, he immediately stood up and bowed.

Over the past two days, he had figured out the situation at the Gu residence.

Of course, he did not neglect Gu Chengrui just because he was a third-grade agriculture officer. Instead, he was even more respectful.

After all, there were many officials in the capital, but not many were working for the sake of the people.

Gu Chengrui was one of them. At the very least, just the mass promotion of sweet potatoes saved many lives. His influence on the Ming Dynasty would be even more profound in the future.

“Manager Xiao, you’re too polite. Have a seat.” Zhou Ying replied and glanced at the skinny group of people, “These are all, right?”

“Yes, they have all been screened according to Madam’s requirements.”

Zhou Ying nodded. She first spread out her spiritual sense and swept it across. Anyone who had an aura of blood or bad luck was eliminated.

At the same time, she paid attention to their words. Anyone looking left and right and being meddlesome was eliminated,

She pointed to her left and said, “Those who know martial arts and cooking, stand aside.”

“I know some martial arts.” After saying that, a valiant-looking maid stood on the left.

“I also know some martial arts.” A manservant stepped forward too.

Following that, an older woman and a manservant stood out and said they knew how to cook.

After that, when no one else came out, Zhou Ying nodded and walked with Gu Chengrui to the middle of the men and women who hadn’t stood out.

Based on their appearance, they eliminated the sloppy ones.

Ultimately, they decided on five elderly women, two maids, and three manservants.

Zhou Ying turned her head to look at Manager Xiao and said, “These ten will do.”

“Is that enough?” Manager Xiao asked in surprise, as this was less than she requested.

According to what she said back then, she chose four people less.

“These are enough for now. We’ll talk about it when I need more.” Zhou Ying replied.

“I see. The old women are eight taels each, the maids cost ten taels each, and the manservant costs twelve taels each.” Manager Xiao nodded and told her the price.

Zhou Ying counted and gave him a hundred taels of silver, saying, “The extra four silvers can be considered as compensation for your hard work.”

“You’re too polite. If there’s anything you need later, just say it.” Manager Xiao thanked her as he received the silver notes.

After that, he found the contracts of the chosen ones and handed them to her. Once that was done, he led the rest of the people out.

Seeing this, Zhou Ying handed the indentured contract to Qiu Niang and requested that she go to the government office to change their status.

The couple later returned to their rooms and drank a bowl of soup. Then, they carried two baskets and let the manservant, who knew martial arts, drive them to the Yang Residence in a carriage.

After arriving at the place, Zhou Ying left the servant two pieces of date cake and told him to wait outside.

And they carried the gifts they had prepared for the Yang Residence.

When Madam Cui heard that the couple had come to visit, they were shocked but still let them in warmly..
