Chapter 201 The Old Marquis and the Old Lady Are Back
Princess Huaishu may not seem very smart, but she is actually a master at playing the pig and eating the tiger. She is also only thinking about her career. As for cultivating a marital relationship with the fifth prince of Nangan Kingdom, Princess Huaishu is not stupid.
There was a forest outside, and she had no desire to develop any feelings for a fool who was always on the verge of returning home and roaming around Yuanjing looking for information. However, if the Fifth Prince of Nangan was willing to perform some affectionate scenes in front of her, she would be willing to watch. If the mood struck her, she would even cooperate.
After all, after she got married, she could no longer live in the palace. Living in her eldest princess's mansion was too quiet and leisurely. As long as there was a free play to watch, she was still very willing.
Now Huaishu felt that she could understand why Funing always wanted to live in the manor. Living in Yuanjing for so long was really boring. So now her fun was to tease her stupid husband.
The emperor was very happy to receive Zhao Lingmeng's return of favor, but a new worry arose: who should he send to take charge of this matter? Moreover, the coastal counties would become very important in the future.
He had high hopes for this matter, so he had been thinking about the candidate these days. Originally, he trusted Changyou the most, but Changyou didn't know where to play now, and he had also retired.
However, Emperor Wenyuan Hou always felt that he was not very smart. This is really the case of regretting not having enough people when you need them!
In fact, the emperor wanted to get Funing there as well, but the two people from Nangan Kingdom were jumping around in Yuanjing. At this time, Funing left the sight of these people, and when the news about Haiyan broke out, it would be difficult to conceal it.
Fu Ning is a great treasure, and the emperor doesn't want her to be exposed now. It is hard to find such a loyal, patriotic and talented person.
Zhao Lingmeng is now free in the farm, and ever since Lord Fan saw Zhao Lingmeng's skill in roasting lamb at the farm, he would often send various game over, and Zhao Lingmeng and his friends also ate a lot of delicious food.
Zhao Houjing and his two brothers were quite satisfied with the food at the farm this time.
That day, Zhao Lingmeng, her mother and her two children ate roasted venison together, and then followed the routine of drinking digestive tea.
Zhao Houming touched his bloated stomach and said with a sigh from the bottom of his heart: "If I could eat this every day on the farm, I would be willing to stay there forever."
"It's dark now, you should go to bed quickly!" Zhao Lingmeng heard Zhao Houming's sigh and just smiled and said such a nonsensical sentence.
Zhao Houming touched his head, very confused, "Mom, it's not time for me to go to bed yet!"
"Second brother, you're stupid. What I meant is that dreams can have everything. Of course, your thoughts can also come true in dreams."
Zhao Houyang spent a lot of time with his mother, so he had heard her say it. Now, here was his chance to mock his second brother.
"Alright! Now you dare to tease your second brother Kai, I'll teach you a lesson!"
Zhao Houming immediately stood up and tried to hit Zhao Houyang, so Zhao Houyang had no choice but to run away.
Soon, the whole room was filled with the voices of the two brothers. Zhao Lingmeng ignored them and drank her tea calmly.
This kind of thing, as long as the three kids are together, they will get into a fight in no time. Zhao Lingmeng went from being like a formidable enemy at first to now being accustomed to it.
As expected, the eldest brother Zhao Houjing joined them after a while. The three little boys, all at this age, would never stop making trouble once they started.
She is no longer as understanding and considerate as usual. I can only say that a child is always a child in front of his mother.
Zhao Lingmeng didn't care about the three of them. She told the servants around her to keep an eye on her while she went to wash up. Now that the weather was warm, she liked to read on the chaise longue by the window after washing up in the evening.
The next day, Zhao Lingmeng was drinking tea alone in the yard, while the three children went to the teacher's class.
Before Zhao Lingmeng and his companions arrived at the manor, they had specially found a knowledgeable teacher for the three little ones. Initially, the teacher hadn't wanted to come, as he was solely focused on preparing for next year's imperial examination, where he was the most likely candidate for the top spot.
But Zhao Lingmeng offered too much, and the time was too short. Besides teaching the three children, he had plenty of time. He took the job, but the three children were smart and self-disciplined, so he didn't need to worry about their studies.
He only needed to answer some of their questions and give them two hours of reading every day, and that was it. He was now very glad to have taken on such a job. He didn't have to worry about food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, and he still had time to review.
Zhao Lingmeng was drinking tea happily in the yard!
"Your Highness, look who's here?" Qiuyue's happy voice suddenly came from behind.
Zhao Lingmeng turned around immediately upon hearing this and saw his father and mother standing next to Qiuyue.
"Father, Mother, why are you two here?"
Zhao Lingmeng walked towards him while speaking, and her mood instantly became very good.
"Greetings to Her Royal Highness Princess Funing." Old Marquis Zhao and Old Madam Wei bowed solemnly.
Zhao Lingmeng immediately dodged and supported her father and mother.
Zhao Lingmeng said strangely: "This daughter can't bear it!"
Wei followed her daughter's force and sat on the chair next to her, and Lord Zhao sat down opposite her very nimbly.
The servants below immediately brought another chair over and placed it next to Wei.
Zhao Lingmeng also sat down and quickly made tea for the two elders.
Lord Zhao drank the tea brewed by his daughter and sighed happily: "The tea brewed by my daughter is delicious. It tastes better than anyone else's."
"Father, if you like, drink more!" Zhao Lingmeng said as he filled the glass for Old Marquis Zhao.
Lord Zhao drank the cup again with great generosity before answering Zhao Lingmeng's question: "Originally, your mother and I weren't planning to return so soon. We were planning to go for a stroll, but we received a letter from your eldest brother, arriving at full speed. He heard that your sister-in-law and you were having a conflict, so we came back to see you."
"Oh!" Zhao Lingmeng didn't react to this. Anyway, she wouldn't do anything unless her sister-in-law provoked her. They didn't live together anyway, and if they didn't make a special appointment, they wouldn't see each other for a long time.
"Why are you doing this?" Wei didn't judge who was at fault. She would first ask both parties involved. She wasn't the type to favor only her daughter.
"It's nothing serious. I came to the farm this time to plant smallpox medicine for three children..."
"What, growing the magical medicine for smallpox, and Yang'er is growing it too?" Wei interrupted Zhao Lingmeng anxiously. After all, she felt that Zhao Houyang was still too young.
Lord Zhao could only pull his excited wife aside and said, "Don't be so excited. Let Meng'er finish what she said."
