The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

This time, it was the Emperor’s first Scripture Reading after taking office. Ever since the Second Prince’s power was dismantled and he was beheaded, Dasu has settled down.

Over the years, both the economy and the military have seen significant development.

Now, it’s clear that the Emperor intends to focus on education.

Both publicly and privately, Meng Yunzheng would not miss this Scripture Reading.

Speaking of which, he hasn’t been to the capital in four years, and Mianmian is almost three years old this year. At this age, taking her to the capital could do no harm, and he could also visit old friends.

Meng Yunzheng had everything arranged, but Meng Pei sighed heavily.

”Once you leave, won’t it be a long time before I can see Mianmian?”

He is still working at the escort agency in the county town. Ever since there was a little granddaughter at home, he mostly takes shorter trips. But this time, he happened to encounter a long journey south, and this place was familiar to Meng Pei, so the General Head Escort hoped he could go along.

Over the years, the people at the escort agency have taken good care of him, so naturally, Meng Pei couldn’t decline.

It’s just that he won’t be able to see his little granddaughter for a long time and fears she might forget him once she returns.

Mianmian heard her name and looked up in confusion, with a few grains of rice by her mouth. She used her little finger to scoop them up and put them back in her mouth, then lowered her head to continue eating, almost burying her entire little face into the bowl.

Meng Pei always felt that watching her eat made him especially hungry, and it seemed the same old food always smelled more delicious.

He smiled, withdrew his gaze, and spoke about the specific details of this trip.

Little Mianmian cleaned her bowl of food amidst their conversation, sighed contentedly, and looked up to boldly wipe her mouth with her sleeve.

Just as her little hand was raised, she felt an unmistakable gaze upon her.

The little girl slowly turned her head and saw her mother looking at her with a smile.

She blinked twice, silently lowered her hand, and then looked at Meng Yunzheng beside her, ”Daddy, I’m full.”

Meng Yunzheng held back a laugh and used a handkerchief to wipe her face.

Little Mianmian tilted her little head, and once her mouth was clean, she got down from her high chair and waved to the three of them, ”Mom, Dad, Grandpa, I’m going to sleep now.”

”Go ahead.”

Ying Xi came over, took her hand, and led her out, directly to the Lu family.

Just as they entered the gate, a figure quickly ran over from outside, ”Mianmian, I’m here.”

Little Mianmian turned her head and eagerly stomped her feet when she saw who it was, ”Brother.”

Huohuo, now five and a half years old, was at his most energetic, and as soon as he got there, he spun Mianmian around twice, scaring Ying Xi, who quickly reached out to steady her, fearing he might drop her.

”Brother, Mianmian hasn’t seen you for a long time. How have you been recently?”

Huohuo put her down and scratched his head. A long time? Didn’t they just see each other yesterday afternoon?

Oh well, Mianmian is still young. If she says it’s been a long time, then it has. Maybe her perception of time is different from others.

Huohuo took her hand and walked towards Yu Garden, ”I’m doing well, how about you?”

”Mianmian is not so well.”

”Huh?” Huohuo immediately asked in concern, ”What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

”Sigh.” The little one sighed with particular distress, ”Daddy says we have to go to the capital, a very, very far place.”

She gestured with her hands, ”It’s so far, we might not come back for five or six years.”
