Chapter 489 Mrs. Shangshu’s visit
As the Minister of Household Affairs, Zhao Mingtang only taught the children the most basic reading and literacy, and there was no problem at all.

As for his personal ethics... no one else is Zhao Zhi, so they are not qualified to judge.

The decision-making power on his relationship with Zhao Zhi lies with Zhao Zhi, not with himself and Lu Yingying.

Xiao Luoyi finally said: "At least he knows how to come to Yongzhou Mansion and try to do something to make Zhizhi forgive him?"

"Is this better than asking Zhizhi to be nice to him, while at the same time belittling Zhizhi to nothing?"

……

After Chen Huaiyu finished speaking to the children, he strolled out of the school and headed towards the village.

But before he had gone far, Zhao Mingtang was supported by Zhao Zhenzu and chased him.

"Thank you, Lord County..." Zhao Mingtang's old face was slightly red, and he felt really shameless.

Chen Huaiyu stopped him from apologizing: "You did nothing wrong, and I think you did a very good job in this matter."

The seventeen-year-old prince had his hands behind his back and a gentle smile on his face. He was as tall as a pine tree and Zhao Mingtang was stunned for a moment.

How is this the magnanimity a child who grew up in the countryside should have? !
Sure enough, being able to become a county king and be valued by His Majesty as an heir is beyond the reach of ordinary people!
After retracting his thoughts, Zhao Mingtang promised again and again: "I will never accept a needle or a thread from the students in the future, nor will I take an egg or a green onion..."

Chen Huaiyu listened to him with a smile, and then said: "I know Mr. Zhao is not a man who lacks two eggs and one onion, and he must be afraid of hurting the children's hearts..."

After some comfort, Zhao Mingtang felt uneasy: He was not sure whether Chen Huaiyu was sincere? Or is it irony?
Until Chen Huaiyu left, Zhao Mingtang still held Zhao Zhenzu's arm: "Zhenzu, what you said about the county prince..."

Zhao Zhenzu thought very simply: "Dad, we don't need two eggs and a handful of wild onions. If we really feel uneasy, prepare some candied snacks."

"If someone gives you something, if you grab two candied snacks for the child, wouldn't that be enough?"

In this way, it will not hurt the children's feelings, and it can show that they are not taking advantage of them.

Zhao Mingtang suddenly felt relieved: "Sure! That's it. Later, you can ask your mother to buy some candied snacks to prepare..."

He patted the back of Zhao Zhenzu's hand happily: "You are becoming more and more sensible, kid. How are your homework lately? Are you falling behind?"

Zhao Zhenzu felt sour thinking about the huge changes in his family in the past few months.

My younger brother died, my father was "retired", and my family moved here from Beijing. It is impossible to say that there is no gap.

But seeing and hearing such drastic changes with his own eyes and ears, Zhao Zhenzu was half frightened. How could he dare to think about something that didn't belong to him?

So Zhao Zhenzu said softly: "Dad, I don't think it's good to become an official in the court. You have worked hard all your life, but you have not ended up here?"

Zhao Mingtang: "..."

"I think it would be nice to just buy some land in the countryside and become a wife..."

As Zhao Zhenzu was talking, a child ran past him. As he ran, he shouted: "Hello, Master Zhao! Hello, little Master Zhao..."

Zhao Mingtang and Zhao Zhenzu responded at the same time: "Alas..."

Watching the children run away, the master looked at each other and smiled: There is no need to worry about offending the holy face here, no need to worry about being thrown into jail, or being exiled to assassinate your wife...

It's really good.

"Then go back and ask who sells their fields around here. Buy some fields on the hills and hire some people to farm them. You won't have to worry about it for a year..." "Okay, Dad, I understand."

The father and son helped him into the school. After a while, the children ran into the house and learning began again.

When a low-key carriage drove into Leigong Village, no one was surprised: on this repaired bluestone road, it is now common for everyone to see cars coming and going every day.

But when the carriage stopped in front of the house of the three brothers of the Chen family, and a maid came down to inquire whether the princess lived here, Mrs. Ge who opened the door was still stunned for a moment.

She subconsciously looked inside and said, "What's the matter with you? Our princess doesn't easily read fortune tellers nowadays."

"If you want a talisman, you can go to the foot of Xuantianmen Mountain at the head of the village. There is a Taoist priest there."

The servant woman spoke with a Beijing accent: "We are here today because we really need to see Princess Zhongjun for something. We can only ask Princess Zhongjun for this matter, and we cannot let anyone else do it for us. I would also like to ask this lady to help me to report it..."

As she spoke, the servant girl began to stuff the red seal into Mrs. Ge's hand with a wink.

Mrs. Ge quickly put it off: "I'll go ask the princess..."

The maid handed over another greeting card with both hands: "This is our master's greeting card. Please also pass it on to Princess Zhongjun..."

Madam Ge took the invitation card and went in. Xiao Luoyi was drawing talisman. When he saw her coming in with the invitation card, he took it casually: "What's the matter?"

Mrs. Ge explained the situation, and Xiao Luoyi opened the invitation and was slightly stunned: the person who came all the way to find her was actually Jin Shangshu's wife Wen Shi.

Isn’t Jin Shangshu the biological father of Jin Yilin, Chen Huaiyu’s partner in the Summer Palace in Beijing?
She came all the way to find herself! ?

Xiao Luoyi counted with his fingers and stood up in surprise: "Please come in, madam."

Outside the door, a maid helped a woman down from the carriage with an expectant look on her face.

Although the woman's clothes were as low-key as possible, her temperament brought out by years of pampering and pampering was something that no one dared to underestimate. She was none other than Jin Shangshu's wife, Wen Shi.

Wen walked into Xiao Luoyi's yard. Although she knew they lived in the countryside, she didn't expect this place to be so simple.

There are no pavilions, just the most ordinary blue brick and large tiled houses.

In the homes of ordinary people, such a house may be considered very good, but the place where the three princes and princesses live should not be so simple.

However, when Xiao Luoyi walked out in simple and simple clothes, he was particularly harmonious with the environment, as if this environment should be like this.

Mrs. Wen restrained her judgment and saluted Xiao Luoyi: "My wife, Mrs. Wen, pays homage to Princess Zhongjun..."

Xiao Luoyi stretched out his hand to support Mrs. Wen and led her into the main room. After asking Mrs. Ge to serve tea and snacks, they started talking.

Business at the Summer Palace in Beijing is very good.

Because His Majesty the Emperor was behind the scenes, no one dared to cause trouble in the Summer Palace.

Because of this, Jin Yilin managed the Summer Palace with ease, and his status and status also increased accordingly. Now his status and treatment in the Jin Mansion are almost the same as those of his legitimate son.

Fortunately, Jin Yilin is not ambitious, and he is quite generous and filial to his aunt and father. If he gives any good things to his mother, he will not forget his aunt.

All said and done, Mrs. Wen is still very satisfied with Jin Yilin, the concubine's knowledge and interests...
