"Mother, what's wrong?" Principal Zhou looked at her in confusion.
Madam Zhou did not hide anything and told him about Zhou Ying buying over Qiu Niang's family today. She also said she had proposed breaking off her relationship with Zhou Ying.
Principal Zhou was surprised after hearing this. "It seems that we are not fated to be together. This is fine. We will mind our own business in the future."
"That's right. If it's broken, so be it. A third-grade officer of agriculture is just another word for farmer."
"It's only because the Emperor favors him. Otherwise, how could a scholar like him enter the Imperial Court?" Second Uncle Zhou said sourly.
However, he was quite envious. His elder brother had been in the Imperial Academy of Medicine for half his life, and he was only a fourth-grade official.
Gu Chengrui, a young scholar, relied on farming and became a third-grade officer in one step. Who wouldn't be jealous of this?
