Meng Tianlang reluctantly watched Yun Yiyi leave and then returned to his home.

The old mother at home was already waiting at the door. When she saw Meng Tianlang coming back, she hurriedly greeted him.

"Where have you been? How did you come back..." Mother Meng approached and smelled the smell of powder on her son's body, and her face turned cold.

He didn't even say anything, glared at Meng Tianlang, turned around and walked back into the house.

Meng Tianlang knew that he was in the wrong, and followed Meng's mother into the house with a guilty conscience.

Inside the house, Meng's mother had already cooked a table of dishes.

"Sit down and eat." Mother Meng said indifferently.

Meng Tianlang responded in a low voice and sat on the chair next to Meng Mu. As soon as he picked up the chopsticks, he heard Meng Mu say, "Are you looking for Miss General Mansion again?"

Meng Tianlang knew that his mother didn't like the second young lady of the General's Mansion, but he couldn't give up.

"Mother, I have already listened to your words. I will not marry the princess or be the consort. Why are you still forcing me to do this? Yiyi and I truly love each other."

Meng Tianlang's tone became somewhat complaining as he spoke.

Meng's mother was stunned for a moment when she heard her son blaming her.

Then he put down his chopsticks and sighed.

He said earnestly, "Mother won't let you marry the princess. Firstly, royal wealth is not so easy to enjoy. Secondly, you have been involved in marriage since you were a child. How can you break your promise now that you are the top scholar?"

Mother Meng looked at her son's handsome face and really couldn't understand.

Why did he change his mind in such a short time after coming to the capital?

Back then, my husband died in the battlefield, and the suicide note he brought back stated that he hoped that his children would be educated throughout their lives and never go to the battlefield again.

She always followed her husband's instructions and sent her son to school as soon as he reached school age, watching him read and write every day.

The family was already poor, and Meng Tianlang spent all the money left by her husband.

As I grow older, there are too many books to read and too many things to write, and pens, ink, paper and inkstones are consumed very quickly.

She went to the town to sell vegetables, handkerchiefs, and steamed buns...

He went out before dawn in the morning and hurried back in the evening when the moon came over the treetops.

Fortunately, her son lived up to his expectations, and she was happy no matter how tired or miserable he was.

Later, Tianlang passed the examination to become a scholar, but she fell ill while rejoicing.

At this time, someone came to the door, saying that it was Tianlang's fiancée's house.

Only then did she remember that when she was just pregnant, her husband saved a family from bandits on his way home for a visit, and the wife of that family happened to be pregnant.

While the family was recuperating at their own home, the family made arrangements for their two unborn children to be married.

At that time, my husband asked innocently, what should we do if we have two sons or two daughters?

The lady smiled and said, let them become brothers or sisters.

After so many years, she forgot about it because of working day and night, but she didn't expect that the other party would always remember it.

After some conversation, I found out that it wasn't that I hadn't come to see them for so many years.

But it was because she moved with her son and they lost their address that it took them so long to find it.

Many things just fell into place, and the Xu family began to help her family by calling them in-laws.

She fell ill and had no energy to make money, thanks to the appearance of the Xu family.

At that time, Tianlang was focused on studying and had no intention of marrying, but he promised that if he were in high school, he would fulfill the agreement between the two families and marry the daughter of the Xu family.

After hearing this, the Xu family was very happy and bought them a house in the town and gave them a lot of money.

Tianlang also lived up to his expectations and passed the exam again.

When he went to Beijing to take the exam, the Xu family originally wanted to accompany him, but Ms. Xu was weak and could not withstand the hardship, so she was the only one who accompanied her son.

But I didn’t expect that everything would change if I really won the top prize.

Especially her son, she didn't want him to marry the princess because she wanted him not to be a treacherous villain.

But what did he do?

He actually fell in love with the second young lady of the general's family.

This matter made a big fuss. If it reached the ears of the Xu family, how would she explain it to her in-laws?

Ugh......

"Mom, I don't like the Xu family girl. She looks sickly. She looks like she won't live for a few years. She talks a lot about business and smells like money. She doesn't look like a girl should be."

Meng Tianlang endured it again and again, and finally spoke it out to Meng's mother.

He felt that women in the world should be like Yiyi, gentle, kind, well-informed, and able to chat with him about poems and songs, spending time in front of flowers and under the moonlight.

His future wife must be like Yiyi, otherwise he will never marry.

In his eyes, Yiyi is the best.

When Meng's mother heard her son's words, she cursed angrily, "You bastard! After studying for so many years, this is how the sages teach you how to be a human being? Are you stupid because of studying?"

"Have you forgotten how you got to where you are today? If it weren't for the Xu family when you were a scholar, where would you have gotten the money to continue studying?"

"And when I was seriously ill, if the Xu family hadn't been so busy helping to hire a doctor, what's in front of you now would have been a tablet."

"Don't forget that the expenses you paid for going to Beijing to take the exam were all provided by the Xu family, and this house was also bought in advance by someone from the Xu family, so that you could have a place to stay after entering the capital.

"Meng Tianlang, is this how you treat your benefactor?"

Meng's mother burst into tears and condemned Meng Tianlang.

At first, Meng Tianlang was a little shaken when he heard the memories of the past, and a flash of guilt flashed across his face.

After hearing this, I gradually became impatient.

He hates the Xu family so much, how can he be great just because he has a few stinky money?

He is now the number one scholar appointed by the emperor. How can the daughter of their Xu family be worthy of him?

Want to take advantage of a small favor in the past?

I don't think about it!

"Mom, they just have some money. When the child becomes an official, he will return it to them as soon as he has money, and we can settle everything. As for marrying a girl from the Xu family, the child is absolutely unwilling to do so."

"If mother feels embarrassed, she doesn't need to worry about this matter. I will explain it to the Xu family personally when the time comes."

Meng Tianlang began to persuade Meng's mother in turn, but to his surprise, Meng's mother became even more angry.

"Get out of here, get out of here, I don't want to see you. In all these years, I have never gotten to know my son. You feel strange to me right now."

"Get out!"

Meng's mother roared in a broken voice, but saw that Meng Tianlang was indifferent.

So he stood up and pulled Meng Tianlang up, pushed him out, and closed the door heavily.

There was a knock on the door soon, and Meng Tianlang was apologizing to Meng's mother.

"Mother, please open the door. You are not in good health. Don't be angry with your body. It's not worth it. Besides, I'm right. True love is priceless. Yiyi and I truly love each other. It's impossible for me to marry a woman I don't love. Mother."

"Mother, I will make it clear to the Xu family. Didn't the emperor also deal with me? Mother, don't be angry."

"That's all, mother, I'll greet you tomorrow. You can rest early."

Meng Tianlang still resisted the marriage between the Xu family and the Xu family, and did not mention any of his mistakes.

Mother Meng was so angry that she ignored him.

After another moment, the footsteps faded away.

Meng Tianlang probably felt bored and went back to his room.
