Now There Was No Telling How Miserable She Was in the Cold Palace!

How could those palace maids and eunuchs not understand these principles?

Eunuch Hai didn't stay long and left in a hurry.

These palace maids and eunuchs, after lying down on the bed, still needed to rest for a few days, even with Zhou Wanwan's help.

Zhou Wanwan ignored them and went straight to the field.

Zhou Wanwan had someone deliver one hundred chicks, one hundred ducklings, ten piglets, ten sheeplets, and many fish fry.

The pond they dug is very large; you can raise fish and ducks in it, which is really nice.

The trees provided several nests for the chickens, ducks, pigs, and sheep, and they looked quite decent.

There were some wastelands over there, and Zhou Wanwan had some grass seeds sown directly, mainly alfalfa, ryegrass, dandelion, and plantain.

While no one was paying attention, Zhou Wanwan began to irrigate the grass seeds with spiritual energy. The seeds sprouted from the soil and began to grow slowly.

Not only that, Zhou Wanwan, seeing that no one was in the fields, began to irrigate them with spiritual energy.

Then you can see the vegetables, corn, and fruits in the fields slowly starting to grow.

Zhou Wanwan irrigated all the fields in the Cold Palace.

After replenishing the energy of those big trees, they went to sleep.

When the people in the cold palace went to the fields early the next morning, they found that many of the plants had already sprouted.

Wow! That's really fast, it's actually sprouted.

"My corn has sprouted too."

"My chickens seem more energetic now; they were listless yesterday."

Everyone had a fixed plot of land; some were assigned to tend the orchards, while others were assigned to raise chickens.

Everyone is doing their job and is having a great time.

In fact, the land is very healing, especially for Chinese people, who have a kind of obsession with farming.

Anyway, Zhou Wanwan likes farming. The old Cold Palace was really terrible, it was cold to the bone, but it's different now.

Zhou Wanwan was just about to read a book when she saw several trees approaching and saying, "Several of our takeout shops have been shut down, and all of our dozen or so shops have been raided."

Zhou Wanwan sighed, "Noble Consort Ning? She must be really bored. But I'm also quite curious, why does Noble Consort Ning need so much money?"

Noble Consort Ning was like a bloodthirsty monster; she wanted anything as long as it was money, and she didn't care even if it meant betraying the country and colluding with the enemy.

This is not normal.

A tree said, "Her younger brother got into gambling and often asks her for money. But that's not the worst part; her family isn't exactly good either."

Zhou Wanwan exclaimed in surprise, "Don't tell me she used that money to support her family? This woman can't be that stupid, can she?"

A tree nodded and said, "She'll use any money she earns to help her family."

That tree had always been in the General's Mansion, so naturally it knew everything.

It sighed and said:

"The Xie Family is no ordinary family in the capital now. The Xie Family members are arrogant, domineering, and act recklessly."

But nobody dares to provoke them; you haven't even seen what the Xie family mansion is like."

Zhou Wanwan asked curiously, "What's the Xie residence like?"

The tree looked at her and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see the Xie residence."

Zhou Wanwan followed the tree to the Xie Family's residence. To be honest, the Xie Family's mansion was truly magnificent, far more impressive than her own.

The courtyard was surrounded by blue and white marble, and the main gate was painted vermilion and gilded, with two white jade lions standing in front of it.

The roads inside the mansion are wide and well-organized, and the houses are arranged in a row, with Liuli covering the eaves.

The courtyard was filled with exotic flowers and rare plants, and the interior furnishings were exquisite and valuable. Every brick, tile, plant and tree exuded the ultimate magnificence of a noble family.

Zhou Wanwan's lips twitched as she said, "The Noble Consort Ning's family is indeed incredibly wealthy!"

The Old Scholar Tree said calmly, "I heard that the family that sealed off our shop this time is the maternal family of Noble Consort Ning. They just want to suppress us so they can do business there themselves."

Just think about it, you can make a lot of money running a food delivery business!

This business is incredibly lucrative.

Zhou Wanwan's business in Upper Capital was indeed a bit sluggish, but she wasn't in a hurry.

Her business is mainly nationwide because she has big trees; her trees grow faster than a horse-drawn carriage, which is how she makes money.

The business in the capital was merely to open up sales channels.

As soon as she entered the Xie Family, she heard Xie Cheng'en laugh and say, "What Zhou Wanwan? She should have learned her lesson this time, right? She's so annoying."

The people nearby said, "I heard he's already been banished to the Cold Palace. I wonder how miserable he'll be there!"

"Anyway, I heard that they don't even have food to eat or clothes to wear. I guess they might have frozen to death."

Xie Cheng'en laughed heartily:

"Trying to compete with me? You're overestimating yourself. Isn't she supposed to be very capable? Why is she working as a delivery driver?"

That's absolutely hilarious! She thinks she can earn that kind of money?

Someone nearby said, "But I heard that girl is really capable; she won a lot of money in a bet with someone."

Xie Cheng'en scoffed, "So what? Even if she wins a lot of money, she's still contributing to the Xie Family."

Everyone burst into laughter. Xie Cheng'en continued to boast, "In a while, you'll see. What she did was like children playing house; it's utterly ridiculous."

"I heard you also do takeout later?"

Xie Cheng'en nodded and said, "Leave this matter to me. I've already received many orders, and you'll see our strength then."

"My family is having a birthday banquet soon, I'll place an order too."

"I'm getting married, I'll also place an order."

"Me too, I'd like to try Xie Family's takeout service."

Xie Cheng'en said with a smile:

"That's no problem at all. Someone, write them all down."

There's a menu here too; just order directly from it.

The servants around Xie Cheng'en quickly memorized their names.

Xie Cheng'en laughed and said, "Don't worry, this takeout is a piece of cake for the Xie Family. We guarantee you'll be satisfied."

These people flattered, "Of course, we trust Young Master Xie."

"If Zhou Wanwan, a six-year-old child, can do it, what are we worried about?"

"Yes, yes, we believe Young Master Xie. We'll head back now."

These people left quickly. Zhou Wanwan raised an eyebrow; Xie Cheng'en was too arrogant.

What good things could the Xie Family possibly produce?

Zhou Wanwan walked around Xie Cheng'en's courtyard and said, "Great, let's go take a look at Xie Cheng'en's warehouse!"

Zhou Wanwan went straight into Xie Cheng'en's warehouse and saw that it was filled with Hotan, jadeite rough stones, agate beads, warm jade pendants, gemstone thumb rings, coral carvings, Liuli treasures, and ancient jade discs.

There are also finely crafted swords, jade-inlaid daggers, good bows and powerful arrows, protective soft armor, hunting tools, and horse accessories.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the jade and said, "These are wonderful things, they'll be very beneficial to me, I'll accept them."

The big trees were overjoyed. Ever since they came to the Upper Capital, Wanwan had forbidden them from moving things, and now they could finally get a chance to help.
