Chapter 173 Zhao Houjing and Zhao Lingmeng's Chat
"The truth, I want to hear the truth!" Zhao Houjing had no hesitation about his choice. He wanted to know what his mother thought. He always felt that his mother's ideas were very different from his.
Zhao Lingmeng rubbed her forehead. It had been a long time since she'd thought about that disgusting family. "The truth is, if I hadn't considered the feelings of you three brothers, especially Jing'er, I would have countless ways to kill them all."
They can have the life they have now because of my kindness! But your face is only this time. If you mess with me again, I will send them to see the King of Hell. So do you know what I think? I don’t hate them, but I want to kill them.
When Zhao Lingmeng said this, she smiled very gently. From a distance, it looked like a warm scene of a loving mother and a filial son. But Zhao Lingmeng's words were life-threatening.
"Mom, how did it come to this? I thought..."
"Do you think we'll sit down and have a cup of tea together when we meet in the future? Or that I'll never marry for the sake of someone like that. If I don't marry, it's only because I don't want to, not because I can't bear to leave some scumbag."
Zhao Lingmeng knew Zhao Houjing was still young, just over six. In her previous life, he wouldn't have even finished kindergarten, but in this era, he would already understand a lot. She didn't want to give him any illusions, thinking there was still a chance his father would return.
Zhao Houjing was a little unhappy when he heard his mother say this. He didn't think his mother and father could reconcile. Now that he was officially studying, he also knew how noble and glorious the eldest princess was.
But he thought his mother and father had just separated, and they could even have a cup of tea when they met again, but he didn't expect it to come to a life-and-death struggle.
"Mom, will you give Dad another chance in the future?"
"What?" Zhao Lingmeng sat up straight the moment she heard this, staring at Zhao Houjing with sharp eyes.
"I...I didn't mean that. I meant if Dad comes to harass us again, can you give him another chance? Forgive him one more time."
Zhao Houjing looked at his mother and quickly explained. He really didn't mean that, but he felt that with the three of them around, his father would come looking for them.
"I guess I can't do that. If there is a road to heaven, he won't take it. I won't let him go of the opportunity that has been delivered to my door. No? Did your father contact you?" Zhao Lingmeng said while looking at Zhao Houjing suspiciously.
Zhao Houjing swallowed his saliva and immediately said, "No"
"Really? You know my current status. Do you think I can find out? If I find out..."
Zhao Houjing looked at his mother's nonchalant eyes. He instinctively sensed danger and could only helplessly confess, "She only wrote me a letter."
At this moment, Zhao Lingmeng really wanted to kill that scumbag Sun Tu. He had the nerve to contact his sons. She also felt that she cared too little about her sons. If she hadn't brought up this topic this time, she wouldn't have known that Sun Tu had contacted Zhao Houjing again.
Zhao Lingmeng stretched out her hand and asked, "When was it written? Where's the letter?"
"I burned it. It was written during the time when you were not in the mansion, and it was only written to me. I asked my two younger brothers, and they didn't receive it." As long as you say a little bit about this kind of thing, the rest of the story will be smooth.
"Haha, he is quite self-aware. Tell me what he wrote!" Zhao Lingmeng changed to a more comfortable sitting position, looking as if she wanted to hear what he wrote.
Zhao Houjing looked at his mother, who was acting as if no one would sleep tonight unless he explained the situation clearly. He felt a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he would not have asked his mother this question alone.
"She didn't say anything, she just said she missed me and gave birth to two younger brothers and a younger sister for me."
When Zhao Houjing talked about this, he also felt it was very ironic. He understood how much sincerity and how much exploitation there was. What brothers and sisters? Only those born by his mother were his brothers and sisters. But he still couldn't bear to watch him die. What should he do?
"Do you want to go live with your father? If you want to go, mother can send someone to take you there."
"Mom, I didn't mean that. I just can't bear to watch him die."
Zhao Houjing didn't expect his mother to think so. He hurriedly explained that he didn't want to live with his father. He could only say that although children are simple, they are also snobbish! He knew that he could live a better life with his mother.
"Then what should we do? I can't stand him jumping up and down. Who do you think should give in, you or mother?" Zhao Lingmeng asked Zhao Houjing's opinion very sincerely. She also wanted to know whether she had raised this child well.
"Let me do it! Just don't tell me when mom does it!" This was Zhao Houjing's last resort to cover up his mistake.
Zhao Lingmeng was probably barely satisfied with Zhao Houjing's answer! She didn't embarrass Zhao Houjing, after all, the child was still a little young: "Oh, this kind of person is not worthy of dirtying my hands. This time, I will reward him with a demotion! But next time, if I'm in a bad mood, I'm not sure."
Not to mention how devastated and angry Sun Tu was when he received Zhao Lingmeng's warning letter. He was originally just a county magistrate. If he was demoted one level, he would be demoted to county magistrate. The treatment and status of a county magistrate were completely different!
The treatment of the county magistrate is much worse than that of the county magistrate. How will his family live in the future? He now deeply regretted writing that letter to Zhao Houjing on a whim.
But for Zhao Houjing, compared to the previous death, he felt that being demoted was a perfect deal. He also knew that this was a favor from his mother, so he happily said, "Thank you, mother."
Zhao Lingmeng knocked on Zhao Houjing's head and stopped him, saying, "Don't thank me yet. First, tell me how the letter got to you."
Zhao Houjing knew his father would not die, so he spoke more smoothly: "It was said that it was brought into Yuanjing by a caravan, and then handed in by the servant in front. He must have served my father before."
Qiuyue, who was outside the door, heard what the young master said and immediately went down to make arrangements. This kind of thing must be thoroughly investigated to find out who dared to betray the master.
"Okay, Mom gets it! Do you have any questions? If not, go downstairs and go to sleep!"
"Yes, mother, if you meet the right person and get married, what will happen to the three of us brothers?" Zhao Houjing was really worried about this. He no longer had a father and no mother. What should he do?
"Oh, what can I do? It's still the same as it is now. I should eat, drink, and go to school. I will still live in this house with you, and you are still my sons!
As for you all growing up, I really plan to have you all move out. No woman wants to be the head of the household after getting married. It's better to be close than to be distant!
So whether I get married or not won't have much impact on you. I won't let you suffer just because I have someone I like, but I won't tolerate your unreasonable behavior. But you will always be my sons!"
