Chapter 97 Sun Tu Fights for Sun Qijing
Zhao Lingmeng knew what Sun Tu was worried about. He had already planned to break up with her by choosing to be exiled, and divorce had probably been on his mind. Now he was so furious, it was simply because of his desire for offspring, for the continuation of his family line. Men really valued this at all times.
Zhao Lingmeng didn't want him to keep pestering her like this. She wanted to solve the problem once and for all. From then on, he would go his way and they would go their own way.
Zhao Lingmeng thought about this and waved everyone else off. She was left with only Nanny Sun and Qiuyue, and then the two children, Sun Qijing and Sun Qiming. Sun Qiyang had already been carried back to Yixin Courtyard by Nanny Wu.
Sun Yue was stunned by the series of unexpected events. Seeing Zhao Lingmeng's gesture to retreat, she immediately retreated a long way away, fearing that Zhao Lingmeng would remember her past and punish her. Now Zhao Lingmeng didn't even want her brother, and she was afraid of this ruthless man. In her mind, no woman would divorce her husband.
Seeing that there were only these few people around, Zhao Lingmeng looked at Sun Tu and said seriously, "I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, you can give birth. Having ten or eight children in the future won't be a problem."
"What about the medicine back then?" Sun Tu looked at Zhao Lingmeng in shock. This incident had always been a thorn in his heart. It was also the reason why, even though he knew it would be difficult for him to have children, he didn't bother to show any fatherly love for Sun Qiming and Sun Qiyang. Seeing the two of them reminded him of the medicine Zhao Lingmeng forced him to drink. Few men didn't care about that.
"Oh, that's just an ordinary tonic. I lied to you at the time because I was thinking of watching the drama later. You said that if you favored someone and gave birth to a bastard child, I could legitimately disown him and maybe even witness a big internal struggle.
"And where else can you find such a potent medicine that can solve the problem in one go? I, the Marquis of Wu'an, am a decent man. Where can I get such a potent medicine?"
Nanny Sun listened to the conversation between the princess and Sun Tu. She was also full of admiration for the princess. It was true that those who do not think about the future will have immediate worries. The princess was really thoughtful.
"You could have kept it to yourself. Maybe you could actually see the drama you hoped for in the future. Why are you saying it now?" Sun Tu was now able to speak to Zhao Lingmeng calmly. Perhaps he knew that there was no way to change his hysteria.
Zhao Lingmeng smiled indifferently, "I couldn't stand up on my own before, so I didn't want to trouble the Wu'an Marquis' Mansion all the time. After all, family affection sometimes has to be used on the edge of a knife, so I am prepared to treat you with respect for the rest of my life, so I must make all kinds of preparations.
I just didn't expect that after I was crowned Princess and established myself, you would resort to all sorts of stupid tricks, and I would no longer want you. As for telling you now, it's naturally because I don't want you to dwell too much on having more children. After all, you can have as many children as you want."
Zhao Lingmeng finished speaking, thinking to herself, the most important thing is that she has the emperor's support. In the future, if there is anything, she won't have to trouble her father and brothers. She has the connections to solve the problem, so of course she can divorce her husband if she wants. But she definitely can't tell Sun Tu about this.
"Haha, you think long-term." Sun Tu looked at the woman in front of him. He suddenly felt that she was so strange. It seemed that he had never understood her. He even had some doubts about whether she had really lived with him for these years?
Zhao Lingmeng was not afraid of him when it came to sarcasm. "Isn't this a big loss?"
Sun Tu choked again, but he would not give up on what he should fight for. He squatted down and looked at Sun Qijing, "Jing'er, haven't you always wanted to go with dad? Dad will take you with me, okay? Your mother will have a better life with you two brothers. Will you follow dad?" After Sun Tu finished speaking, he reached out to pull him. Sun Qijing hesitated for a moment and took a step back.
"Jing'er, you..." Sun Tu was stunned again. Wasn't this son crying and wanting to follow him a few days ago? And now Zhao Lingmeng has won him over in just a few days! Sun Tu glared at Zhao Lingmeng angrily.
Zhao Lingmeng didn't want to take the blame for Sun Tu. "I didn't say anything. Don't you know what immoral things you did? How dare you let me take the blame for you?"
Sun Tu had been about to start another argument with Zhao Lingmeng, but he glanced at Nanny Sun beside Zhao Lingmeng and turned away. This was someone sent by the Emperor; he dared not act presumptuously. He didn't want to end up being the county magistrate as well. This might be his fate in this life, and he dared not even think about anything else. He still had some self-awareness of what impression the Emperor had of him.
"Jing'er, why don't you want to go with dad again? Did someone say something?" Sun Tu could only look at Sun Qijing again.
"You don't want me at all. I have chosen you. If you don't want me, I won't choose you again." Sun Qijing felt aggrieved at this time, his eyes were red, and he shouted loudly.
"When did you choose a father?" Sun Tu was even more confused, because he had just been ordered to divorce her husband.
"Just a few days ago, Aunt Dong Mian told me that I can only choose one between father and mother. Who should I choose? I chose you, but you can take grandmother and aunt with you. You don't take me with you, you don't want me, so I won't choose you again." If Dong Mian heard that the eldest young master sold her so easily, she would probably be depressed, and then sigh that it is not easy to be a good person.
Sun Tu glared at Zhao Lingmeng again. It seemed like this woman had wanted him gone for good already. Everyone around her actually knew about it.
"It was Dad's fault. If you come with me, you can live with me, grandma and aunt. We will all love you very much." Sun Tu promised solemnly and smiled sincerely, hoping to kidnap this kid.
Sun Tu thought that as long as Sun Qijing could pass the exam, Zhao Lingmeng would definitely not ignore him. Jing'er would be successful, and their family would be successful too. If he could then help his other children, that would also be great.
"Dad, I'm young, not stupid. Ever since you had a falling out with mom, I have always chosen you. But you only want me to honor you when I grow up, and never think about how I grow up." After Sun Qijing finished speaking, he raised his hand to show Sun Qijing, and the action seemed to say, Dad, look, I'm really young.
Sun Tu blushed a little for a moment, but it was only for a moment. In their countryside, many children grew up with their mothers, and their fathers had to work to support the family. It was the same situation as theirs. He had never seen anyone who was unfilial to his father when he grew up.
"Jing'er, all your ideas are wrong. Dad was busy before and didn't have time to manage you. But Dad will be the highest official in the county in the future, and he will have time to take care of you. Will you come with Dad?"
