Chapter 202: Wei understands the reason for the conflict between Zhao Lingmeng and her sister-in-law
Zhao Lingmeng also nodded along with her father, "Mom, don't get excited, the main point hasn't come yet!"
"Then you say!" Seeing that the father and daughter had united as one, Wei could only shut up helplessly.
Zhao Lingmeng knew that the two elders were worried about their safety, so she didn't rush to say anything else. Instead, she comforted them first: "Mother, don't worry. This time, all four of us, mother and children, have planted the seeds. Look at us, we are all alive and kicking now, so we know everything is fine."
"It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay! Just continue talking!" Wei patted his chest, looking frightened.
"Since two renowned doctors from the Imperial Hospital were accompanying us this time, I wanted to bring Mo'er along as well. I sent for my eldest sister-in-law to discuss the matter. She kept calling me the eldest princess and saying Mo'er needed to study, implying she was blaming me. She said small matters like this should be addressed at the Marquis of Wu'an's residence, but she said she was too busy managing such a large residence.
But I kept the smallpox elixir a secret from everyone this time. I just asked my sister-in-law if Mo'er wanted to come with me to the farm to play."
"It's not a big deal. You two are having a conflict over this? Your brother even called me and your mother back from so far away because of this?"
In Marquis Wu'an's opinion, this was just a quarrel between the sister-in-law and the uncle, and everyone should just give in. Was there any need to call him and his wife back?
Wei gave Old Marquis Zhao a look that told him to shut up, then looked at Zhao Lingmeng, "What do you think?"
Zhao Lingmeng didn't care about this. People need fate to get along with each other. If they can't get along, just make it look good on the surface. "That's it. She's still my sister-in-law, but I won't easily help her in the future."
Wei obviously understood her daughter's temper. She patted Zhao Lingmeng's head and didn't speak up for Jin. She didn't demand that her daughter and her sister-in-law love each other. Even if they didn't get along, it was enough for them to just get along for the sake of appearances.
She had no intention of forcing her daughter to accommodate her daughter-in-law, but she also had no intention of forcing her daughter-in-law to accommodate her daughter. Whether they could get along or not depended on their own fate.
As for other benefits, everyone is responsible for their own choices. You can't have everything!
Zhao Ling dreamed that her mother didn't say anything and even comforted her. She was very happy, "Mom, you are so kind!"
Zhao Lingmeng muttered as she rubbed her head against Wei's hand.
"Is my father not well?"
Zhao Lingmeng could only smile awkwardly and immediately added: "It's all good, you are all good!"
After finishing the serious business, Lord Zhao and Mrs. Wei finally had the mood to look at the surrounding scenery.
Lord Zhao looked out from his position and saw that the whole farm was covered with crops. It was obvious that he also agreed with this approach: "Your farm is well managed now!"
Zhao Lingmeng smiled, but didn't show any modesty. Instead, she pointed to the three small plots of land not far from the yard and said, "Those are the ones planted by your three grandchildren!"
"Let's go and take a look!" When Lord Zhao heard his daughter say this, he immediately looked at his wife.
Wei was also quite curious, so she stood up obediently and followed Lord Zhao out.
Zhao Lingmeng could only touch his nose awkwardly and followed his father and mother out.
Old Marquis Zhao looked at the three green seedlings on the edge of the yard and couldn't help but praise, "It's really good." More importantly, through these three small plots of land, Old Marquis Zhao could also see his down-to-earth character of not fearing hardship, fatigue, or corruption.
Maybe he will be a talent of Jingguo in the future!
Zhao Lingmeng saw that the two elders had been mumbling and praising each other for a long time and had no intention of stopping. She could only helplessly interrupt their praising session:
"Dad, Mom, are you tired? Are you sleepy? Do you want to rest first?"
"You don't need to rest if you're not tired or sleepy. Where are my three wonderful grandchildren? Let's go see them. If you have something to do, go and do it yourself!"
Zhao Lingmeng pouted in amusement, "Zhao Lingmengjing and the other two are in class. They'll probably finish in another hour."
"Then let's drink some tea outside!" Old Marquis Zhao just wanted to wait outside and see his three grandsons as soon as possible.
Old Marquis Zhao had good intentions, but before they had even had a few cups of tea, the emperor sent someone to summon Old Marquis Zhao into the palace.
Old Marquis Zhao, watching the visitor from afar, could only put down the teacup he was holding and muttered quietly: "Well, my grandson can't see me anymore."
Zhao Lingmeng wasn't surprised at all that the Emperor knew her father's whereabouts. What was surprising was the Emperor's attitude towards her father. Sometimes he was suspicious, sometimes he was friendly with her. He was more fickle than the weather in June: "Father, didn't you give the title to my eldest brother? Why do you keep coming to the palace?"
"Maybe it's because I am in the emperor's favor!" Old Marquis Zhao is still confident about this.
Wei rolled her eyes at Zhao Changyou, wondering who had caused the emperor's suspicion, forcing her daughter to marry down. Now she had the nerve to show off in front of her daughter that Jian was in the emperor's favor.
When Old Marquis Zhao received his wife's cold stare, he could only awkwardly straighten his clothes and quickly change the subject: "I'm going to the palace. Are you going back to the Marquis of Wu'an's residence or staying with Meng'er for a while?"
Wei also tugged at her clothes and said, "I'll go back to Wu'an Marquis Mansion first! The boss is urging me to come back in a hurry."
"Mother, are you leaving too?" Zhao Lingmeng was definitely reluctant to let her go, as they had just met.
Wei knew that her daughter was reluctant to leave her, so she reached out and touched her daughter's head like she did when she was a child.
"Be good, mother will go back and take a look first! If your brother and sister-in-law make the mansion a mess, it will be too late to regret it then."
Wei was mainly afraid that Jin and her eldest son would come into conflict with each other. If that happened, her eldest son would have a bunch of concubines in the house, and it would be a big drama every day.
"Okay then! Then mother, when you are done with your work, come and visit me with father. I will be staying at the farm for a while." Zhao Lingmeng pulled Wei's sleeve and shook it, insisting that Wei agree.
Old Marquis Zhao was in a hurry to get to the palace; the carriage was waiting outside! He couldn't bear to see Zhao Lingmeng and his wife dawdling. They were both in Yuanjing, and he could see her anytime he wanted. Why would he be reluctant to leave? He refused to admit that he was jealous of his daughter.
"I agreed on behalf of your mother, that's all right!"
Zhao Lingmeng thought to herself, you are afraid of the lady, so you won’t be able to make the decision when the time comes, so she looked at Wei stubbornly.
Wei could only reluctantly agree. Who could guarantee such future events? But her daughter acted as if she wouldn't leave without a promise, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree. If something happened and she couldn't come, she would probably nag her every time she saw her. It was really a headache to think about it.
