The Yamen Official found that the old lady was quite easy to talk to, probably she was cheated on by her family.

This was the General’s Mansion, how could the money and valuables bestowed by the Emperor be stolen?

If all of this was stolen, how can General Xiao have the qualifications to be a general with this ability?

He was afraid that this was just a struggle within the inner house.

He also felt a little disgusted with Xiao Yuanshi and his wife.

He heard that the old lady and others sold their house and land in their hometown, and were robbed halfway, begging to the capital to see their son.

On the other hand, the other party lied and fooled the old lady like this.

But he didn’t say much.

Anyway, the higher-ups ordered a thorough investigation, so he only needs to investigate.

He ordered his men to take away all the servants and related personnel guarding the warehouse.

Ge Chunru couldn’t help turning pale, she didn’t expect these people to act so fast.

It was a pity that the general was out of the capital to handle errands. She has sent people to find people quickly, but it seems that it may be too late.

So she greeted the official with a smile: “Is there some misunderstanding?”

Old Lady Xiao hated Ge Chunru, the charming fox, even more, when she saw her smiling face.

She couldn’t bear it. She wanted to step forward and spit out at her but was held back by Mrs. Wu.

Mrs. Wu whispered: “Mother, you cry!”

Shi Qingluo said before that, in front of outsiders, the old lady has to act as a kind mother and mother-in-law. She must not be cruel to them.

She didn’t pay much attention to it at first, but after she came to the capital and saw Ge Chunru’s tricks, she felt that it made a lot of sense.

After being reminded of this, Old Lady Xiao also remembered that she had to play a good mother-in-law.

Recently, she got used to cleaning up this tiny hoof and almost exposed herself in front of people.

This sly fox must have done it intentionally to ruin her reputation in front of outsiders.

So she wiped her eyes with her sleeve and dipped in ginger juice, and the tears came out immediately.

She looked at Ge Chunru and said: “What do you mean?”

“Do you think it was me who moved the money and valuables from the warehouse?”

“Before you insisted on letting me be the housekeeper, saying that the family has not yet separated, so I have to help you guard the back house.”

“I saw that your housekeeper spent too much money. It was not easy for my son to become a general, so I reluctantly agreed.”

“But later on, the housekeeper discovered that there was something wrong with the money in the warehouse, and there were no valuables.”

“I’m afraid that someone has stolen them. Such a big general’s mansion has to support so many people, what should I do in the future?”

“But you said that you misunderstood as soon as you came here? Are you blaming me, your mother-in-law, for meddling in this matter?”

She even showed a look of being hurt by her daughter-in-law: “Woo, then I don’t care. Even if those money and valuables are stolen, then so be it.”

This made Ge Chunru completely dumbfounded.

What happened to this old lady? She can’t believe she put such a hat on her.

It was completely nonsense. When did she take the initiative to ask her to be the housekeeper?

This old woman was simply shameless.

When did they become so smart?

Were they pretending to be stupid in the county?

If this old lady continues crying and turns black and white like this, how would others think of her?

Sure enough, Ge Chunru noticed that the Yamen Official and others looked at her with disapproval.

She immediately put forward Xiao Yuanshi: “How could I blame my mother? It’s just that the general is not here. I’m afraid that there will be a misunderstanding about the matter in the warehouse, and make the lord’s trip futile.”

Old Lady Xiao suddenly didn’t know how to answer the conversation, so she gave Mrs. Wu a vague look.

Mrs. Wu’s eyes rolled: “Second sister-in-law, you are wrong.”

“Mother is doing this for the general’s mansion. Didn’t you hear the lord say that none of the gold and valuables bestowed by the Emperor before are in the warehouse?”

“How can the imperial gift be lost?”

“Mother invited the Yamen to investigate. It was for the second brother-in-law’s sake, the general, would be responsible for the negligence of duty.”

“But, you still blame your mother for meddling in this matter?”

“At the beginning, you let mother be the housekeeper. What do you mean now?”

“If you are reluctant to part with the power of housekeeping, then just tell us. Mother is not that kind of unreasonable mother-in-law.”

Old Lady Xiao wiped her tears and said: “Yes if you don’t want me to be the housekeeper, you can just tell me. I’ll return it to you right away.”

Then she copied what Shi Qinglou wrote in the letter, she looked at Old Man Xiao and said sadly: “Old man since our second daughter-in-law doesn’t like us in this general’s mansion, why don’t we go back to our hometown?”

That girl said that if she wanted to stay, she had to stand on the commanding heights and fight against the general.

Let people know that they were not the ones who wanted to stay in the general’s mansion.

When the time comes, these two beasts have to beg them to stay, otherwise, the saliva of outsiders will drown them.

Old Man was also saddened by what his son and daughter-in-law did.

Although they were a little biased, they have never starved and frozen their second son since he was young!

He can’t help but show a bit of disappointment and sadness on his face: “Okay. Since they don’t welcome us, let’s go back to our hometown.”

It seems that neither of them looks like they want to stay in the general’s mansion.

Ms. Wang was in a hurry: “Father and mother, our house and land have been sold, and our money and luggage have also been taken away. How can we go back?”

Old Lady Xiao said with great backbone: “Let’s go back while begging for food. Anyway, we came here begging for food.”

“When we get to the village, let’s borrow some money from the villagers, then rent a house. I don’t believe you can’t survive.”

Old Man Xiao also made a decision: “Yes, let’s go back. Since the people here despise us, let’s not stay in the General’s Mansion anymore.”

Hearing those words that they didn’t mean, Ge Chunru was so angry that he wanted to faint on the spot.

In the past, she was good at using such tricks.

She didn’t expect that people from the main House would use this trick to disgust their husband and wife one day.

What do they mean that she doesn’t welcome them? What do they mean that she doesn’t think about the general’s mansion?

Does it mean she has to be accountable because they failed to do their job well?

And who called the Yamen anyway?

These people were too hateful and deceitful.

Her eyes were full of tears as she said: “No, how could I despise my in-laws? I wish you would stay in the general’s mansion forever, the general and I are so filial to you.”

Old Lady Xiao also wiped her tears, and cried louder: “You are right, it’s us who want to go back.”

She also deliberately said to the Yamen Official: “We want to go back, and it has nothing to do with my daughter-in-law.”

Hmph, who doesn’t know how to act?

Ge Chunru: “… …”

Why didn’t this old lady point at her and scold her like before?

She hoped that the old lady would slap her a few times in public.

But this damn old woman was so good at acting, she was going crazy.

The more she spoke, the more it looked like she was forcing them.

She was about to speak to the Yamen Official to explain, but the other party spoke first.

“Whether it is a misunderstanding or not, since the old lady and others have reported the case, and our master has also accepted it, we must investigate to the end.”

He said meaningfully: “After all, it still involves the things bestowed by the Emperor, so we can’t be careless.”

“Madam General, it’s better to focus more on honoring your parents-in-law.”

Looking at the appearance of the old lady and the old man, they are honest villagers, and they look like they want to cover up for their daughter-in-law.

This general’s wife was not a good person.

Then he didn’t listen to Ge Chunru’s words, he took the servants and others away with him.
