Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Madam Zheng answered cautiously, "Kumbo is not valuable in Jinghai. You can buy a basket for two cents. But when it is shipped to the capital, the price can increase tenfold, but it is still at most twenty cents a basket, which is two cents per pound."

"The profit is good, but because it takes up space and is inconvenient to transport, the profit is not much. Madam, if you want to do seafood dry goods business, you can try dried shrimp and precious seafood."

Gu Xiling heard what Madam Zheng said and knew that Madam Zheng had misunderstood her. She shook her head and chuckled, "Madam Zheng, you misunderstood me. I don't want to do the dried seafood business, but I heard that kelp can cure goiter."

"Goiter?" Mrs. Zheng was startled. "I haven't heard of it, but we often eat kelp in our area, and we have never seen goiter. On the contrary, I have seen it several times in the capital."

Gu Xiling smiled and said, "I won't be polite to Madam Zheng. Give me whatever you have at home. It's just right. I'll give it to the farmers on the farm to try."

What a coincidence, I was strolling around the village yesterday and met two farmers with thick necks. They went to see a doctor and took medicine, but the effect was not good.

Gu Xiling is not a doctor, but in her previous life she had a maid who lived by the sea. She said that it was said in their local area that eating kelp could cure goiter.

She asked someone to try it at that time, and it really worked.

After the local people ate the kelp, their goiters disappeared, which won Xie Jin the hearts of the people.

The memories were too old, and many things could only be remembered by Gu Xiling after she saw them.

She was just about to ask someone to find kelp when Mrs. Zheng brought it to her. It was truly a timely relief!

Madam Zheng said quickly, "Madam, when I get back, I will have all the kelp in my house delivered to us. If it's not enough, I will send a message and ask my brother to deliver a few more carts."

Gu Xiling chuckled, "No need for Madam Zheng to spend money, I'll give you the money."

When Madam Zheng heard this, she stood up quickly and said, "Madam, I was actually very nervous before I came here. We are from a poor family, and my husband is honest. The capital is big, and it's not easy to live there. Life at home is very tight."

"In order to thank the Crown Prince and his wife, I racked my brains to prepare a decent and thoughtful thank-you gift, but my ability is limited and the gift is not elegant enough. Now the Crown Prince and his wife want kelp, and for me, I can do it, and it is a way for my husband and I to repay the Changning Marquisate. If you give us money, we will never accept it."

Mrs. Zheng said this sincerely.

The Changning Marquis Mansion is a family of wealth and power, and a family of poetry, literature and nobility.

The Changning Marquisate had no shortage of gold, silver, and jewelry. No matter what was given as a gift, it was of no importance to the Changning Marquisate.

But if the Crown Prince's wife asked for something on her own initiative, and it was something they could get, Madam Zheng would be very happy about it.

Seeing this, Gu Xiling smiled and said, "Mrs. Zheng has said so. It's not appropriate for me to mention money again. Thank you very much, Madam. It doesn't need to be much. Two cars will be enough."

Later, she asked her servants to add 20% more to the gift in return.

"Yes, I'll send a message to my parents' home when I get back." Mrs. Zheng smiled and agreed happily.

Gu Xiling looked at Hu Zi who was playing happily, "Hu Zi is three years old this year, has he started to learn?"

"He is still young and has not yet started to learn. My husband said that there is no need to rush. Now is the age for growth and character development, so there is no rush to study." Mrs. Zheng replied, "My husband started to learn at the age of eight. He said that he has talent and should be able to pass the exam if he works hard."

"If a child is not good at studying, it is useless even if he is educated from the womb. If you want your child to be successful, the first thing is to strengthen his body and understand the principles of being a human being. Only when he grows up can he become a successful person. If he cannot grow up, the more he studies, the greater the harm he will suffer."

Gu Xiling was surprised, but when she thought of Zheng Wen's achievements in his previous life, it was no wonder that he acted like this. "Master Zheng is right. Hu Zi has a good temperament. He will not only grow up, but also become a talent in the future."

Madam Zheng was very happy to hear Gu Xiling praising her son, "Thank you for the compliment, Madam Crown Prince."

Gu Xiling talked to Madam Zheng about children, which made Madam Zheng completely relax. In just an hour or two, they started to call each other sisters.

After having lunch at the farm, Zheng Wencai said goodbye to his wife and left.

In the carriage, Zheng Wen held his sleeping son in his arms and asked with a chuckle, "Madam, how is the Crown Prince's wife?"

Madam Zheng praised, "After meeting the Crown Prince's wife today, I can be sure that those rumors outside are not credible. Those people said that the Crown Prince's wife was a female demon just because she went to the government office to file a complaint with the public. That's because they haven't gotten along with the Crown Prince's wife and don't know that she is a very good woman."

"If the prince does not cherish his wife, then he is a fool. You can thank him for saving your life, but you cannot have close relations with such a person. If the prince cherishes his wife, it proves that this person is capable of governing the country and bringing peace to the world, and is worthy of your following."

Zheng Wen was startled. Ever since his wife followed him from the south to the capital, he had never heard her speak so highly of someone. "Is it because of her status that you are praising the Crown Prince's wife so much?"

"Of course not!" Madam Zheng shook her head and glared at her husband. "We are just from a lowly family, but we are not stupid. I can tell whether the other party is kind or fake. The wife of the prince saw our embarrassment and not only did she not despise our gifts, but she even had them prepared for us at noon and everyone praised us."

"Not only that, the Crown Prince's wife also took the initiative to ask me for something, which made me feel that the Crown Prince's wife is thoughtful and a rare good person."

"Ah?" Zheng Wen was stunned. "You feel good about being asked for a bribe in person? Aren't corrupt officials the most annoying to you?"

"Then do you know what the Crown Prince's wife asked me for?" Mrs. Zheng asked, her gentle face looking quite serious.

Zheng Wen blinked, "Pearl of Jinghai?"

Apart from this, he couldn't think of anything else worthy of the wife of the Crown Prince of Changning's Mansion asking for?

"You can't guess it!" Madam Zheng glared at her husband, dissatisfied with her husband's misunderstanding that the Crown Prince's wife was greedy. "Two carts of kelp, the point is not to eat it myself, but I heard that people living by the sea rarely have goiter, and eating kelp can cure goiter, so I want to verify this statement."

"This..." Zheng Wen was stunned, his face was respectful, "Madam Crown Prince is so kind! I was chatting with the Crown Prince today and learned that the high-yield wheat that will be harvested in the fields was also suggested by the Crown Prince's wife to try."

Madam Zheng nodded. "People who only like to eat, drink, and have fun, and to collect rare treasures, always look up. How could they see that the lower-class people are sick? How could they care about whether the grain production is high? How could they try to grow crops at a cost that is thankless?"

"How could those noble ladies who wear silk and satin, eat delicacies from land and sea, and are obsessed with jealousy in the backyard do such things? The wife of the prince is not an ordinary woman."

"Think about it again. In the past, Crown Prince Zhou Jin often wrote sarcastic poems, and they were widely spread. But since he got married, besides being henpecked, have there been any bad rumors about him? But when you were having dinner just now, you also saw that the Crown Prince was not henpecked at all. His heart and eyes were clearly full of the Crown Prince's wife."

Zheng Wen pondered carefully, stroking the beard on his lips, "Madam, this is reasonable, and the rumors are not to be believed. When the prince mentioned the prince's wife, how could he have any resentment? He kept praising her, and his tone was proud, without any forced fear of his wife."
