“What’s so great about it? No matter how good it is, it’s just you being a cook.” Zhou Jiaqing said disdainfully.
“You can’t say that. The minimum requirement for being a good wife and mother is to know how to cook and make clothes.
“If you don’t know the basics, how can you be a wife and mother? Don’t you think so?” Zhou Huaiming said with an evil smile.
When Zhou Jiaqing heard his defense, she was so jealous that she went dizzy. She yelled out without thinking, “You… Why are you so protective of her? Are you two having an affair?”
However, she regretted it after saying that.
Before she could return to her senses, she was kicked to the ground by Zhou Ying. She was in so much pain that she could not recover for a long time.
“Zhou Ying, you’ve gone too far.” Madam Zhou stood up and knocked on her walking stick.
“Everyone knows who went overboard, and it isn’t me.” Zhou Ying turned her head and replied expressionlessly.
“Jiaqing’s words are too much,” someone immediately echoed.
“Indeed. She slandered someone without any evidence. If it were me, 1 would beat her half to death.”
“Hurry up and take her away. She’s a girl, but her words are sharp and mean.” The Empress Dowager hurriedly added.
At the same time, she was highly disappointed with Zhou Jiaqing’s performance.
An arrogant, jealous, and impulsive person like her could not be the daughter-in-law of the royal family.
Moreover, she was the daughter of an imperial physician. She absolutely could not marry into the royal family, or she would definitely stir up trouble in the family.
She gave the Empress a look.
The Empress nodded and crossed out Zhou Jiaqing’s name.
Principal Zhou heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. Based on her performance tonight, if she really marries into the royal family, she might bring disaster to the family.
At the same time, Mrs. Zhou’s face turned pale. She quickly helped Zhou Jiaqing up and ran out.
When the old madam saw this, she looked at Zhou Ying with resentment. She simply threw the Zhou family’s dignity to the ground for others to step on.
Moreover, after such a ruckus, it would be difficult for Zhou Jiaqing to marry into a higher position, let alone the Third Prince.
The Eighth Princess looked at Zhou Ying with apprehension. She did not expect that Zhou Ying would hit someone just because of that. It seemed better to avoid contact with her in the future.
At the same time, Madam Cui, her daughter, and Yang Wanyu looked at Zhou Ying with trepidation. It seemed that they could not openly bully Yang Wanning in the future.
Of course, some people were secretly happy, especially those who were sworn enemies of Zhou Jiaqing and the Zhou family.
Princess Mingyu’s eyes lit up as she looked at Zhou Ying. A person who would move her feet instead of her mouth whenever possible really suited her taste. It seemed that she had finally found a soulmate.
The Empress looked at Zhou Ying with curiosity and suspicion. If she was correct, Zhou Ying must know martial arts. Otherwise, that kick would not have been so fast and ruthless.
“Is there anyone else who wants to show off their talents?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a few younger ones came up one after another, most of them just dancing.
However, no one was in the mood to watch, so it ended quickly.
After a while, the banquet officially began. As Zhou Huaiming said, all the dishes were already cold when they were served.
The key was that the dishes were exquisite, although the portions were too small. There was a braised carp, stir-fried meat, beef slices with soy sauce, stir-fried cabbage, a plate of sesame seed cakes, rice, and egg soup.
After the Emperor and Empress had started the banquet, they took a cup of wine and left.
Everyone exchanged a few pleasantries and hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls before dispersing.
Following that, the couple followed the Third Prince back to the manor..
