Chapter 402 How to Repay Me

The Li Moqin mentioned by Xiao Lang is the magistrate of Shanyang County.

He has little official position, but he was born as a Jinshi five years ago.It's just that he is upright and unwilling to use money to open up relationships, so he was reduced to Shanyang County and became a small seventh-rank sesame official.

Shanyang County has beautiful mountains and rivers, but the land is barren, the crops are not harvested well, and the income of the people is not high, and life is miserable.Back then, Zhao Hongde chose to settle here after washing his hands in the golden basin, just because he liked the beautiful scenery here.As for the industries that the Zhao family relies on for their livelihood, they are actually in the wealthy places outside.

However, Li Moqin didn't learn from the lessons of his early years, and he still didn't like to please his boss when he was in office. As a result, he stayed in Shanyang County for five years and never moved.

Seeing that they were about to enter the backyard, Zhao Danqing was a little annoyed that the Eighth Prince would come out like this.

"Can't the Eighth Prince cancel the agreement with Lord Li?" Zhao Danqing asked tentatively.

Shaking his head helplessly, Xiao Lang replied with some apology: "My prince also wants to live closer to Mengmeng, but Mr. Li invited him first, and this prince also agreed. This prince forgot this for a while. This matter has failed Mr. Zhao's good intentions. It is really such a contradictory thing that this prince can't do."

Hearing the Eighth Prince's words, Zhao Danqing's disappointment was beyond words.He said, "That's it, Caomin...don't force the Eighth Prince."

Since the eighth prince doesn't live in the mansion, Zhao Danqing has no excuse to lead him to the backyard.His body moved slightly, and he was about to lure the Eighth Prince elsewhere, when he caught a glimpse of Xinmeng standing quietly behind Xiao Lang from the corner of his eye, he suddenly had an idea.

"Meng'er, come here quickly." Zhao Danqing beckoned Xin Meng to come forward.

When Xiao Lang turned around, Xin Meng saw the expression on his face clearly, and then slowly stepped forward: "I don't know what orders do you have from uncle?"

"Meng'er, accompany the eighth prince for a walk, uncle to see how the preparations for tonight's banquet are going." Zhao Danqing turned to Xiao Lang, and respectfully begged, "Eighth prince, please be sure to have dinner at the residence before leaving. On the side of Mr. Li, the grass people will send someone to say hello."

Xiao Lang didn't speak, but nodded his head, which was considered to agree to stay for the banquet.

As soon as his eyes lit up, Zhao Danqing swept away the haze on his face, and walked away happily, leaving Xiao Lang and Xin Meng to look at each other and look at you, without making a sound for a while.

After a while, Xiao Lang spoke first: "Mengmeng, you made me give up a great opportunity, how do you plan to repay me?"

Xinmeng blinked her eyes, not understanding what the great opportunity he was talking about was?She obviously helped him get rid of the gossip, and of course, she also helped herself.

"Ah..." Xiao Lang deliberately sighed, showing a regretful expression, "Originally, I stepped into the backyard and lived in the Biyuan Pavilion grandly prepared by Senior Zhao for my grandson and son-in-law. After returning to Beijing, I Then I can ask my father to marry me. But, just because Mengmeng you are not willing, I missed such a good opportunity for nothing."

Xinmeng: "..." He knew that even if he really lived in Biyuan Pavilion, she would not easily accept the marriage offer, but he still used this as an excuse. What was he trying to do?

well!I knew she wouldn't fall for it.Xiao Lang sighed in his heart, stepped forward to approach her, and said softly: "Mengmeng, I'm not in the Zhao residence tonight, so be careful in everything, especially don't let Hongyi haunt you."

Xinmeng raised her eyebrows, a little surprised.Is this what he meant by "repayment"?
