Chapter 285 Daily Gossip
Hearing this, Yang Chengchen's eyes lit up instantly: "Then let's go quickly, aunt. I haven't eaten the food here for a long time, and I miss it very much."
Zhao Houyang rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Why are you exaggerating so much? You've only had three days off, and you're acting like you've been back for three years!"
Although Zhao Houyang was arguing with Yang Chengchen, it didn't affect his inner happiness. He had never eaten venison before!
"You don't understand my sadness. I feel like I'm missing out on a meal at my aunt's house."
So, the three of them sat down at the table in no time. Yang Chengchen, who had initially vowed to share some gossip, now ate without even looking up. The other two were also concentrating on their food, with no intention of saying anything.
After the three of them had eaten their fill, they all spontaneously resumed their former carefree attitude.
"Aunt, this venison is so delicious! Where did you buy it?" Yang Chengchen thought that if it was easy to get, he would ask someone to buy some when he returned home and make a few more meals. Such delicious meat, one meal would definitely not be enough! But now his stomach was full.
"Oh, it's a gift from your royal grandfather. I don't know where your royal father got it. It's half a piece! Can you take some back with you when you return home later?"
Although Zhao Lingmeng enjoyed eating venison, there was so much venison that she and Zhao Houyang couldn't finish it all. Even Doctor Feng couldn't finish it. As for Fan Yong and Zhao Zhimo, they probably couldn't eat venison right now, so sharing some with Yang Chengchen wouldn't be a problem.
If Zhao Lingmeng shared this rare gift with Qiuyue and the others, the emperor would probably be unhappy if he knew! So he could only ask the kitchen to make more each time and pretend that they couldn't finish it and share it with them.
Yang Chengchen didn't hesitate and nodded happily. He knew that his aunt said that if she really wanted to give it to him, he didn't need to be so hypocritical.
Moreover, his aunt had given him so many good things over the years! These were all from his aunt's heart. But he still thought in his heart that when he had good things, he would also leave some for his aunt.
"Then I have to go back home early today. It depends on whether my father will have a good meal today." Yang Chengchen laughed mischievously, thinking that if his father went to the concubine or other women tonight, then he would not have a good meal. It just so happened that he was eating with his mother and brother.
Zhao Lingmeng looked at Yang Chengchen, who was grinning like he was asking for a beating, and was very curious: "Aren't you afraid that your father will beat you up like this?"
"Let him beat me! I'm his biological child, he can't really beat me to death!"
Yang Chengchen thought to himself, he wasn't afraid! He actually wanted to know who was more important to his grandfather, him or his father, once he had mastered the skills. His father would definitely be very happy by then.
Not to mention Zhao Lingmeng, even Zhao Houyang made a gesture to Yang Chengchen saying you are awesome.
"Aunt, let me tell you, I had someone prepare a soup for my father yesterday to cool him down. I was waiting for him to come back from your visit so I could present it to him. But Mother didn't allow me to go. What a waste of that soup I had someone prepare!"
Zhao Lingmeng looked at this person who was enjoying the fun and was very curious. "You are quite brave. Why didn't I notice it before?"
Yang Chengchen looked at Zhao Lingmeng flatteringly, "Isn't this the confidence that my aunt gave me?"
"Hahaha, don't worry, when you are beaten half to death, your aunt will go to see you." Zhao Lingmeng would never support a naughty child!
When Yang Chengchen heard his aunt say this, he immediately wailed and lay on the table: "Auntie"
When Zhao Lingmeng and Zhao Houyang saw Yang Chengchen like this, they laughed happily. This might be the legendary that people's sorrows and joys are not shared!
"Later at night, my father asked my mother to teach his illegitimate sons a lesson. Aunt, you don't know that the mothers of my brothers treat them like the apples of their eyes. What can my mother do to control them? My father doesn't care about them himself and wants others to do so." Yang Chengchen was still very indignant when talking about this.
Zhao Lingmeng wasn't surprised by the eldest prince's thoughts. To him, all the children were his, and he had to consider them all. But to the Princess, they were all enemies trying to take everything from her son. "Oh? What did the Princess say?"
"Mother said that one of her two sons is under the care of the Imperial Grandfather, and the other is under the care of you, Aunt. She has no experience in raising children, but if Father is confident, she can handle this job.
Then the king became worried again and said that he would personally find a teacher of high moral character and respect for them.
Mother is still smart!"
Yang Chengchen never hid his dislike for his half-brothers in front of Zhao Lingmeng. Although it wasn't their fault, their mother always caused trouble for his mother, and he couldn't possibly like these little rascals who had conflicts of interest with him.
"The Princess is indeed clever."
Zhao Lingmeng also thought so. It is best not to get involved in such things, otherwise if something bad happens in the future, it will be a sin.
When Yang Chengchen heard Zhao Lingmeng say this, he was really happy, "I knew that my aunt and I agree!"
Zhao Lingmeng looked at the two energetic kids and thought to herself, "We've heard enough gossip. Let's finish class early so you can go back and show off!"
Zhao Houyang and Yang Chengchen both nodded happily. They were indeed not sleepy at the moment.
In the afternoon, Yang Chengchen listened very carefully. When he was sure that he understood it completely, he asked someone to take the venison back.
He was quite normal along the way, but as soon as he entered the Princess's courtyard, he shouted with joy: "Mother, mother, I'm back."
Seeing that no one responded to him, Yang Chengchen called out happily again: "Brother, big brother."
In fact, the Princess and Yang Chengchen were both there at the moment. They just looked at him like a monkey and ignored him, waiting for him to come in by himself.
Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Yang Chengchen went in by himself. As soon as he entered, he saw his mother and eldest brother drinking tea by the window! He immediately sat down next to his eldest brother.
Yang Chengchen took the tea on the table and drank it all, then looked at the Princess and Yang Chengchen with accusing eyes: "Mother and eldest brother are here? Why don't you two respond to me?"
Yang Chengchen looked at his brother, whose temper was becoming more and more unruly, with amusement, "Because we think it's rude to yell like that."
"Hmph, it seems like you two don't want to eat the venison I brought back tonight. I have to go back and eat it alone." After saying that, Yang Chengchen made a gesture to stand up and leave.
The Princess and Yang Chengchen immediately reached out to pull him, and the eldest brother Yang Chengchen looked at Yang Chengchen in surprise, "Where did the venison come from?"
The Princess of the County joked with a knowing look on her face, "Where else could it have come from? It must have been given by Princess Funing."
"Hehe, mother really understands me. This is given by my aunt. Let's have a big meal tonight and show it off to father tomorrow."
The Princess of the County was also dissatisfied with the eldest prince's recent outrageous actions, so she did not refute her son's words. If the eldest prince asked about it, she would just say that she didn't want to disturb his interest.
So, that evening, Yang Chengchen, his mother, and brother enjoyed a sumptuous feast of whole deer. As for the eldest prince finding out the next day, he felt abandoned, but was coaxed into submission by the Princess. We won't dwell on that.
