Ge Chunru’s face turned pale again, thinking that she was in trouble.

Soon, the Yamen Official led people to search out things from Ge Chunyi’s yard.

At the same time, someone called the old lady and others to come over.

The old lady and others were very angry when they saw boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and valuables being moved out of the little beast’s yard.

She was even more convinced that Ge Chunru was going to embezzle the property of the General’s Mansion and give it to her brother.

Shi Qingluo was right again. This woman wanted to completely turn the General’s Mansion into the Ge family.

However, that beast, her second son, was stupid, but they won’t agree.

Old Lady Xiao immediately pretended to be shocked: “Why are these things in the Madam General’s brother’s yard?”

The Yamen Official glanced at the general’s wife, whose face turned pale. Ge Chunyi was embarrassed and at a loss.

He smiled meaningfully, “We don’t know that.”

“General Xiao, Madam Xiao, do you want to explain?”

“Otherwise we will arrest Ge Chunyi.”

Ge Chunyi immediately argued: “I didn’t do it. I didn’t steal these things.”

It was indeed not his doing.

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yuanshi’s face turned dark.

This guy was too cowardly. If he said this, then who else could have done it?

He didn’t expect that he was indeed a white-eyed wolf. His training over the years has been spent on feeding dogs.

Ge Chunru felt sad and angry, but she had to stand up and say: “I was the one who did it.”

“Before my mother-in-law wanted to be a housekeeper, I was afraid that they would not know some rules when they first came to the capital and accidentally damaged the imperial gift, so I asked someone to move them to my brother’s yard and put them there first.”

“Originally, I planned to let my mother-in-law get familiar first to be a housekeeper after some time, and then have people move them back to the warehouse.”

“I just didn’t expect that my mother-in-law wouldn’t ask me first about it, and just thought thieves came to the warehouse and then went to report it to the Yamen. But it was all a misunderstanding.”

She was indeed the one who did it. Since those servants opened their mouths, there was nothing she could do if she didn’t admit it.

The main point was that if she doesn’t admit it, should Xiao Yuanshi admit it?

Then there will be a gap between them, husband and wife.

It won’t be good for Xiao Yuanshi’s career.

And this also involved her brother.

She couldn’t let her brother be charged with theft, so it was the best choice to stand up and admit it.

But her reputation was ruined. She wanted to kill the old woman and others.

When Old Lady Xiao heard what she said, she also wanted to give the little hoof a few words.

“Yes, you are innocent. It is me, the mother-in-law who is at fault.”

“I shouldn’t have thought that you were sincere when you asked me to take charge of the house, and then take over.”

She immediately wiped away her tears: “It’s just that your sneaky move of the warehouse hurts my heart.”

“If you had told me earlier, how could I have reported this incident?”

“Since you are on guard against me, why would you pretend to let me take care of the house?”

The old lady was now very good at pretending to be a white lotus: “I’ve wronged you, so why don’t we leave?”

Again, she was retreating to advance.

Ge Chunru: “… …”

I want to tear this pretentious old woman apart.

The less she scolded her and said she was wrong, the more embarrassing it would be for her.

Xiao Yuanshi didn’t want the old lady to continue talking: “Mom, this matter is Chunru’s fault. I will make her apologize to you.”

“You promised before that you would help me look after the general’s mansion.”

“I’ll have these things put back into the warehouse, and it’s up to you to take care of them, otherwise I will worry.”

He had to express his position now. While stabilizing the old lady and others, he also showed it to the Yamen Official and others.

Seeing her second son compromising for that little hoof, Old Lady Xiao was not happy at all, but even more angry.

But seeing the boxes of gold and silver jewelry, her anger disappeared a lot.

These belong to her sons and grandsons, she must keep them safe.

“Mmm, since you said that, I’ll take care of it. After all, it’s hard to guard against domestic thieves.”

She looked very reluctant and said: “I’ll help you with the housekeeping.”

Xiao Yuanshi: “… …”

Ge Chunru: “… …”

You don’t have to be so reluctant.

And it was disgusting for the old lady to say that it was hard to guard against thieves.

The old lady compromised, so Xiao Yuanshi said to the Yamen Official: “This is all a misunderstanding. It is entirely a family matter of our general’s mansion. The warehouse has not been stolen.”

“We caused you trouble and made you all work hard.”

He immediately gave the housekeeper a look.

The other party understood, took out a few purses, and gave them to the Yamen Official and others.

This was indeed a family matter. It can’t be reported that the general’s wife robbed the general’s mansion by herself.

After a hard day’s work, the Yamen Official was not polite and took the lead in taking the purse: “Okay, I hope General Xiao will take good care of his family in the future.”

Xiao Yuanshi raised his hand and said, “I will!”

After seeing off the Yamen Official and others, the old lady stared at the housekeeper to move all the money back to the warehouse.

He also forced Ge Chunru to hand over the real warehouse account books.

Ge Chunru has no choice now but to hand over the account book.

But she wanted to find a way to deal with these people in private.

After returning home, Ge Chunru became more and more angry and aggrieved. She was tired from being handled by the old lady before, so she said she was sick and didn’t go to serve the old lady for dinner.

Old Lady Xiao didn’t insist on calling anyone over this time.

It was only for the meantime.

Xiao Yuanshi and Ge Chunru thought that this matter would come to an end and that the General’s Mansion would be calm for a while.

Who would have thought that the next day, Old Lady Xiao and the others would make trouble again?

Old Lady Xiao went out with the old lady who lived opposite in the morning, which relieved Xiao Yuanshi, thinking that she would not be a monster for the time being.

Not long after the court meeting ended, the housekeeper came to report that the old lady and others ran to make a fuss outside the Capital Academy.

Earlier this morning, he was indeed included in the reports.

He was scolded by the Emperor. He could only hold back his anger.

Hearing what the housekeeper said, he suddenly felt like he wanted to faint on the spot.

He gritted his teeth and asked: “Why are they making a fuss?”

The housekeeper said truthfully: “The old lady said that the young master has a bad character, contradicts, disrespects, and beats his elders, and is not worthy of studying at Capital Academy.”

“The others are still injured from his beating yesterday, so they also started to make trouble, saying that they were beaten by the young master, and wanted an explanation from the academy.”

Xiao Yuanshi was going crazy: “What is the result?”

“The Academy asks the old lady and others to go back first, and they will send someone to investigate.”

“The old lady and the others were unwilling. The old lady and her two madams even cried at the gate of the academy, saying that they were bullied to death.”

“If Capital Academy doesn’t punish the young master, they will themselves at the entrance of the academy.”

Xiao Yuanshi: “… …”

That again.

The housekeeper said cautiously: “The Capital Academy has found out what happened in the general’s mansion yesterday, that the Yamen Official found the lost property in the warehouse in the young master’s yard.”

“So the Capital Academy expelled the young master for being disrespectful, beating his elders, and having bad conduct.”

“Pfft!” Xiao Yuanshi felt a sweetness in his chest, and he couldn’t help but vomit a mouthful of blood.

“They are here to harm me, and they would only stop if they killed me.”

He was mad.

Although he was disappointed with his brother-in-law, he was not ready to give him up yet.

To let his brother-in-law enter the Capital Academy, he spent a lot of money and favors to do it.

It just so happens that this brother-in-law has gained some fame, and he has taught him martial arts personally. As long as he finishes his studies, there won’t be much problem with becoming the top martial arts champion next year.

But now everything was ruined by those bastards from the main branch of the Xiao Family. How can he not be so angry that he vomits blood?
