Chapter 434 Zhao Lingmeng decided to move to the village
"Grandfather, my mother doesn't need to do such a small thing. I will go and pull it out. I promise to pull it out thoroughly for grandma." Zhao Houming adheres to the principle of taking care of things himself and is determined not to let his mother get tired.
Lord Zhao thought about it and felt that his grandson was right. His daughter's delicate body probably really couldn't do this. "Okay! You and your uncle go and pull it out."
Lord Zhao thought that his daughter could not go, but his son could not. He quickly went to work for him.
Finally, Zhao Lingmeng changed her clothes and went to pull weeds with Zhao Anping and Zhao Houming. The three of them had lunch with their mother, and then Madam Wei and Marquis Zhao lay on lounge chairs in the yard, watching Zhao Lingmeng and the other two pull weeds.
In the end, Mrs. Wei couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep before she could watch for long.
The person who is asleep is unaware of it, and the one who is awake is the saddest. Especially the old Marquis Zhao, he turned his head to look at his sleeping wife, and his eyes were red unconsciously, "It's the medicine Meng'er brought that is good, I can finally fall asleep."
Zhao Lingmeng and the other three also saw the look in the eyes of the old Marquis Zhao. Their eyes darkened and they could only lower their heads to pull out the weeds. Even Zhao Anping shed tears.
When Zhao Lingmeng and the other two returned to Yuanjing, Old Lady Wei had not yet woken up.
Zhao Lingmeng lingered for a long time and refused to leave, which made the old Marquis Zhao go from feeling guilty and moved at first to being speechless in the end.
"Why don't you leave? If you don't leave now, your mother will wake up soon." After saying this, Old Marquis Zhao waved at Zhao Lingmeng. The meaning was very clear, that is, to let Zhao Lingmeng and the others leave quickly.
Zhao Lingmeng wanted to struggle, "No, father, why don't I stay here? I don't have anything to do in Yuanjing, and I don't have to go to court like my elder brother."
"Yes, if Mother doesn't go back, it would be good for me to stay here with her!" Zhao Anping still agreed with my younger sister's decision. So he also actively agreed.
"Alright, you're not needed here, hurry back! If you stay here, your mother will have to save her energy to deal with you. And isn't your little sister getting married? The eldest princess's wedding is a big event, how can she live here! And..."
Zhao Lingmeng was impressed by his father. "Okay, I'll come back in two days."
After she finished speaking, she pulled Zhao Houming to pay her respects, and then left with her people without waiting for Zhao Anping. Old Marquis Zhao looked at his daughter's back and shouted, "Wait until your eldest brother is on leave before coming back. Don't come so often."
Zhao Lingmeng could only pretend not to hear. Anyway, she would go back and make some arrangements. In two days, she would move directly to her farm next door. Wouldn't that be convenient? Then she could wait until her mother fell asleep before visiting her.
Zhao Lingmeng thought it through in her mind and walked more smoothly.
Old Marquis Zhao didn't withdraw his reluctant gaze until he could no longer see his daughter's back.
Zhao Anping looked at his father's dejected eyes and couldn't help but comfort him, "Father, don't worry. With my younger sister's current temper, she'll probably move to the farm next door in a couple of days."
This surprised Lord Zhao. This place was not an ordinary place. If he did not have the favor of the retired emperor, he would not have been able to buy this small farm. But his daughter's farm was actually next door?
"Your younger sister also has a farm here?"
Zhao Anping nodded, his eyes full of envy. He also wanted to have a farm in this place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.
Old Lord Zhao once again admired his daughter's generosity in his heart. However, even though he admired it, he looked at his eldest son standing in front of him and felt less pleased.
"Meng'er is gone, what are you still doing here?"
Zhao Anping could only bow respectfully, then got on the carriage and chased after his little sister. He was used to his father looking down on him from time to time anyway, and Zhao Anping felt that this family would definitely not be able to survive without him as a punching bag.
Since Zhao Lingmeng had made up his mind and decided to live in the farm for a while, he started packing when he returned.
Although Zhao Houming didn't ask, he guessed what his mother was going to do. He also asked someone to pack up the books he was going to read recently. Anyway, he was going to accompany his mother, and he could read books no matter where he was.
He would just bring the written policy paper back to the teacher for comments after a while. He was young and not afraid of trouble.
Zhao Houjing and Zhao Houyang also knew that their mother was going to stay at the farm for a few days. Zhao Houjing was holding his breath with Zhao Houming, as he hoped that he could surpass his second brother in the next imperial examination.
He didn't want others to mention him as the big brother at the top of the list. He also had a name.
So Zhao Houjing said he would not go, and he would directly live in the Royal Academy to study.
Zhao Lingmeng nodded. She didn’t care whether the children went or not. Her mother would be very happy to see her anyway.
Zhao Houyang thought about it and finally decided not to go either. "Mom, just let my second brother accompany you! I will stay in the mansion. If the Ministry of Rites comes to perform the three books and six ceremonies, it will not be good to be without the master in the mansion.
I'll call my cousin Yang Chengchen over when the time comes, and he'll be able to handle these things. You can just stay with your grandmother at ease."
Zhao Lingmeng saw that her youngest son was so considerate, so she did not destroy Zhao Houyang's plan. Instead, she encouraged him and said, "Okay, then mother will leave Qiuyue to you. From now on, our third young master will be the one who makes the decisions in our mansion."
Zhao Houyang smiled happily, and almost patted his chest to express that he would definitely take care of these things.
Zhao Houjing glanced at his younger brother with disdain and muttered in a low voice, "little flatterer", but his expression did not change. After all, he knew that his mother was in a bad mood recently, and he did not want to get beaten.
Zhao Lingmeng packed up all these things and was about to set off the night before Fan Yong came back from his mission. He heard that the imperial decree for marriage had been issued, and Princess Funing was so angry that she wanted to live in the manor.
He handed in the task and, regardless of how late it was, he climbed over the wall and entered the Princess's residence. He had been here often before, so he was very good at avoiding the guards.
Fan Yong quickly found himself under the window of Zhao Lingmeng's inner room. He knocked on the window as he had done before. After a long while, Zhao Lingmeng finally came over and opened the window.
"Hey, where did the moon come from today?" Zhao Lingmeng was worried about her mother's illness and rolled around in bed. She finally fell asleep, and then someone came to knock on the window. It would be strange if her tone was good.
Fan Yong had been with Zhao Lingmeng for so many years, and he knew at a glance that she was angry because he had disturbed her sleep.
Fan Yong immediately took out a box from his arms and handed it to Zhao Lingmeng, whispering flatteringly: "I'm here to give you a gift!"
