“Then it’s a deal. Also, make some b.u.t.terfly pastries for me. I love them.”
“Alright, I prepared two pounds for you.” Zhou Ying replied.
Then, she stood up. “Let’s go. Aren’t you worried about Wanning? Let’s go out and support her.”
“Let’s go. We can’t let them bully her.” After Mingyu finished speaking, she walked out first.
Zhou Ying smiled and followed.
They realized the Emperor had prepared a lavish party when they arrived outside. Not only were the relatives of the Imperial Family here, but even the civil and military officials had also arrived. In short, it was very lively outside.
Everyone was surrounding Gu Wanning and the First Prince and presenting their gifts.
“Auntie.” The Eldest Princess waved at Zhou Ying.
“Nannan, were you a good girl?” Zhou Ying walked over and asked.
“I good. Mill. Broke down.” After the Eldest Princess finished speaking, she took out the pinwheel and handed it to her.
Zhou didn’t know how she played with it, but the core of the straws in the middle of the paper was broken, so the pinwheel couldn’t turn.
Zhou Ying asked the nanny to bring the rest of the stalks over. She repaired them and blew hard. After ensuring the pinwheel could move, she returned them to her. “It’s done.”
“Imperial grandmother, I want it too.” At this moment, a little boy spoke.
“Mother, I want it too,” another child shouted.
“Me too.”
“Me too…”
“No, bad!” The Eldest Princess hid the pinwheel behind the previous Empress Dowager and looked at the children nearby fiercely.
“Haha, our little princess is scared.” The previous Empress Dowager smiled and then looked at Zhou Ying. “Ying, is this pinwheel easy to make?
“If it’s easy to make, I will get someone to help you make one for each child.”
“It’s easy. I just don’t know if it’s easy to find the stalks of straws in the palace.” Zhou Ying said.
The previous Empress Dowager looked at the Eldest Princess’ nanny because she had found this thing.
“I will go get it now.” After Nanny finished speaking, she turned around and walked away.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying looked for Nanny Yu and asked her to find some paper and paint.
When the nanny came over with the stalks, they got busy.
As soon as they started, the women with children surrounded them and began to learn.
After all, it was obvious that this thing was easy to break. If they broke it, they would be embarra.s.sed to come begging for a pinwheel.
Fortunately, the pinwheel was easy to make. As long as one had a brain, they would basically understand it after Zhou Ying finished it.
Seeing this, all of them also helped out.
“Zhou Ying, your husband’s appointment as Marquis is such a big deal. Aren’t you going to treat us?” Mrs. Sun asked.
“Yeah, it’s been almost a month. Are you really not going to hold a party?” Consort An echoed.
“No, my daughter is still young, and Chengrui is busy with the construction of the medical center. He doesn’t have the energy to do it.
“How about this, when the year-end wine matures, I will give each family two jars of wine to thank everyone for their blessings.”
“We’ll remember that. You can’t go back on your word when the time comes.” Consort Xian smiled.
“No problem. You can ask me for it if you don’t get it by then.”
“How much wine can you brew?” The previous Empress Dowager asked curiously.
The others perked up their ears when they heard that. After all, red wine was not as strong as white wine. It had a hint of sweetness and was very popular among women.
“Let me put it this way. One acre of land can produce about 300 pounds of wine. I grow 350 acres of grapes.”
“Oh my G.o.d, there’s so much. I’ll make it clear first. When the time comes, you’ll leave me 200 pounds.” Mingyu immediately went forward when she heard that.
“Yes, yes, we’ll also order 100 pounds.”
“We’ll give you 300 pounds.”
