Summer arrived, bringing the harvest season. Apricot, early plum, and mulberry trees were ripe for picking.

Zhou Ying started preparing gifts, a basket each of apricots and plums, and two large jars of mulberry wine, and brought them to the palace, splitting them between the Grand Empress Dowager and Gu Wanning.

Seeing the Second Prince playing on the slide, Zhou Ying greeted Gu Wanning, who was watching nearby. Gu Wanning smiled upon seeing the gifts. “Fresh fruit! I haven’t had any in a while. Thank you, Sister-in-law.”

“Enjoy them,” Zhou Ying replied. “They’re delicious, but go easy, especially for the children.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll watch them.”

Pointing to the large jar, Gu Wanning asked with sparkling eyes, “Is that wine?”

“Yes, it’s mulberry wine,” Zhou Ying explained. “It has a gentle taste and is good for the spleen, stomach, and intestines. It’s even said to promote beauty! Have a sip or two occasionally.”

“That’s perfect! Drinking wine has become a habit,” Gu Wanning confessed. “I feel incomplete if I don’t have a glass every day.”

“Have the mulberry wine instead. I have plenty of fruit wines, and strong wine isn’t good for you. Moderation is key.”

“Understood,” Gu Wanning agreed. They watched Guoguo play with the Second Prince for a while before heading inside for a private conversation.

Soon after, Princess Zhi Shan arrived. Zhou Ying, wanting to change the subject, launched into gossip, particularly the recent events at the Mother God Temple.

“Really?!” Zhi Shan exclaimed. “Did you truly see Mother God appear?”

“Indeed,” Zhou Ying confirmed. “I was quite shocked. Everyone’s praising the Mother God for stopping those with bad intentions and protecting women.”

“A good deed indeed,” Gu Wanning added, nodding in agreement. “So many noble ladies lose their virtue every year. It’s truly tragic.” She couldn’t help but think back to her own past, wondering what her fate would have been if her cousin and the others hadn’t intervened.

“Mother God is sure blessed and mighty!” Zhi Shan praised with admiration.

“A savior, just and kind!”

Zhou Ying simply smiled at Zhi Shan’s reverence.

They then turned to palace news. The eldest princess and prince were now fully engaged in their studies—six hours daily, divided between morning and afternoon sessions.

Notably, the Emperor personally took the Eldest Prince to practice martial arts in the horse stance every morning, much to the prince’s dismay.

He Jiahui, on the other hand, had been well-behaved since entering the palace. Aside from the mandatory morning and evening greetings, she rarely visited. Already three months pregnant, she remained hidden, seemingly content to stay out of sight.

Zhou Ying wondered if this was genuine meekness or well-calculated prudence. After all, someone entering via a talent competition was more likely to be the latter.

Lunchtime arrived, and Zhi Shan left to be with her daughter. Zhou Ying and Gu Wanning exchanged a few more words. Learning that the Emperor remained unchanged, Zhou Ying finally felt relieved after her half-month visit.

Stay strong,” Zhou Ying offered before leaving.
