Chapter 215 Zhao Houming's Cheating
When Zhao Houming heard his mother say the same thing, he immediately exploded: "Mom..."
Zhao Lingmeng would never indulge Zhao Houming: "Everyone has their own aspirations, understand or not, anyway, as long as Yang'er doesn't eat your rabbit, isn't that enough!"
Zhao Houjing looked at his mother and two younger brothers, and then looked at the rabbit in his arms. He couldn't decide which side he should stand on. He was extremely embarrassed for a moment.
Just as Zhao Lingmeng and Zhao Houyang looked at Zhao Houming, thinking he was going to strongly condemn them, Zhao Houming said gloomily, "I can't raise my brother's rabbit together with my brother's. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear to eat it when the time comes."
Zhao Houyang stared at Zhao Houming with wide eyes. He was shocked. What kind of values were these? "Are you my second brother? How can you say such shameless words without blinking?"
Zhao Houjing, who was still struggling over who to speak for, was also stunned and stared at Zhao Houming blankly.
"You can't just eat the delicious food with mom while my brother and I watch over you! That's so inappropriate! Don't you think so, big brother?"
Seeing this, Zhao Houming had no choice but to seek help from his backer. He felt that his elder brother would definitely help him.
Zhao Houjing didn't know that he was just watching the fun, and would eventually have to participate in it.
"Mom, I remembered I have a book I haven't read yet. I'll take my leave now."
Zhao Houjing finished speaking, holding the rabbit in his hand and bowing, then hurried away. He couldn't afford to offend someone by showing it with his actions, and he couldn't afford to offend him at all.
When Zhao Houming saw Zhao Houjing running towards him with the rabbit in his arms, he could only yell angrily from behind, "Brother!"
Now it was Zhao Houyang's turn to be arrogant. He bowed to Zhao Lingmeng and prepared to leave, but he did not forget to carry his future meat himself.
When Zhao Houyang passed by Zhao Houming, he did not forget to touch him with his elbow and snorted arrogantly.
Suddenly, Zhao Houming was the only one left in the room. He could only find a way out for himself: "Mom, look at my elder brother and younger brother, they don't love me at all."
"Hmph!" Zhao Lingmeng also snorted arrogantly. She didn't want to pay attention to this guy who was both a hypocrite and a hypocrite.
Seeing that his mother ignored him, Zhao Houming could only find a way out awkwardly, "I'm just trying to liven up the atmosphere..."
Under his mother's gaze, Zhao Houming could not continue speaking and gradually fell silent.
Zhao Lingmeng didn't really want to do anything to this shameless guy. Seeing him wandering around in front of her, she felt dizzy: "Alright, stop standing in front of me and do what you need to do!"
"Oh!" Zhao Houming was very well-behaved at this moment. He bowed and prepared to leave.
Zhao Lingmeng watched Zhao Houming prepare to leave, and she suddenly remembered that she hadn't told the three children yet that they were going back: "Tell Jing'er and Yang'er that we're going back to Yuanjing in two days!"
When Zhao Houming heard this, he jumped back, having almost walked out the door. "Ah? Didn't you say earlier that you wanted to spend the summer at the farm?"
Seeing Zhao Houming's reluctance to leave, Zhao Lingmeng thought for a moment before suggesting, "Mom has something to do back in Yuanjing. How about the three of you stay here for the summer and come back in the winter? I'll leave enough people for you three."
When Zhao Houming heard his mother wanted to keep the three of them, he immediately retorted: "That won't work! Wherever mother is, there I am!"
After Zhao Houming finished his rebuttal, he thought for a moment, and to make it more convincing, he added, "My eldest brother and third brother don't want to either."
Zhao Lingmeng only said that, and seeing Zhao Houming's huge reaction, she said, "I just made a suggestion. If you don't want to stay, then go back to Yuanjing with your mother!"
After hearing what his mother said, Zhao Houming nodded in relief, and did not forget to complain about Zhao Lingmeng's unreliability: "Mom, you are so heartless that you actually want to leave us three children here!"
After hearing what her second son, Zhao Houming, said, Zhao Lingmeng felt that she was a little unreliable, but she was determined not to admit it. She could only try to make amends for herself: "I saw that you were reluctant to leave this place, so I came up with this plan. And I will give it to the people you protected. Don't wrongly accuse me!"
When Zhao Houming heard his mother say this, he looked at Zhao Lingmeng suspiciously. He didn't know whether he should believe it or not.
But he was a little reluctant: "I can't bear to give up the crops I planted. I want to plant a whole season myself from beginning to end."
When Zhao Lingmeng heard what Zhao Houming said, she couldn't find a solution for a moment, "What should I do?"
"Alas! Mother's affairs are more important. Will you accompany me to the farm to plant crops again next year?"
After Zhao Houming finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Zhao Lingmeng, the expectation in his eyes almost turning into reality.
"Okay! Next year, I'll come with you to the farm to plant crops." Zhao Lingmeng agreed without hesitation. After thinking for a moment, she added, "You three can also plant crops there when you return to the Princess's Mansion."
When Zhao Houming heard his mother say that they could grow crops in the mansion, he was very curious: "How can we grow crops in the mansion?"
"You definitely can't plant it around the yard where we live, nor in the front yard. Those areas are used for entertaining guests, with a lot of people coming and going. But there's a fenced-off piece of land next to it. That's what the Emperor left for Mother to expand the palace in the future. Give it to you three brothers to plant it!"
Zhao Houming thought he was no longer a child and had to consider everything, so he still wanted to ask clearly. He didn't want to pull out the seeds halfway through: "What if we want to expand our mansion in the future?"
"The Princess's Mansion is so huge, I almost get lost inside. How can I expand it? I only have three of you. When I was alive, even if you each had your own courtyard, there would still be plenty left. Now that I'm gone, it's very likely that the court will take back the Princess's Mansion."
Zhao Houming heard his mother say that this house could not be passed down to future generations, so he felt even less sorry for using it to grow crops: "That way, I can use it to grow crops when I go back. Maybe our mansion can even achieve self-sufficiency."
Zhao Lingmeng listened to the bold words of her second son and glanced at him subtly out of the corner of her eye. She thought to herself that it was indeed amazing that her son, with his small arms and legs, had achieved self-sufficiency in food.
But Zhao Lingmeng considered herself a good mother who didn't use persecution as a tool for education. So she smiled and encouraged him, "You do your best. I'm rooting for you."
After hearing what his mother said, Zhao Houming finally nodded happily, "Then mother, I will go tell my eldest brother and third brother the news."
Zhao Lingmeng nodded and said, "Go!"
Zhao Houming bowed and ran off. Looking at his second son's back, Zhao Lingmeng couldn't help but sigh, "Children are so energetic."
Qiuyue, who was standing beside him, listened to His Highness making fun of the young master again and couldn't help but remind him: "Your Highness, is it possible that it is only morning now, which should be the time of the day when you have the most energy?"
