Xiao Hanzheng looked at the remaining piece of letter paper again.

“My Scumbag Father’s people have found the waiter Xi Rui and the others asked to leave on purpose.”

“Xi Rui and the others gave that waiter money to leave.”

“Unexpectedly, the waiter did not leave the capital. Instead, he hid in a nearby village for a few days and then returned to the capital.”

Shi Qingluo said: “Scumbag Father will know about this sooner or later.”

But they don’t know what will happen to the waiter in the restaurant.

Xi Rui was relatively principled in doing things, giving money to send people away.

Unlike some people, once they use it, they will be silenced forever.

It was a pity that this waiter go back and deliver himself to the scumbag father. There was nothing they could do.

Xiao Hanzheng thought for a while and said: “According to my understanding of my Scumbag Father after he finds out that the person behind it is Xi Rui, he will send the waiter to the Duke’s Mansion.”

Shi Qingluo was stunned: “Send it to the Duke’s Mansion?”

Xiao Hanzheng replied: “My Scumbag Father won’t want to completely become an enemy of the Duke’s Mansion.”

“If he sends this person, first, it means that he knows Xi Rui’s plan, and secondly, he will also want to use this evidence to make the Duke’s Mansion owe him a favor for this matter.”

He then sneered: “But my Scumbag Father probably didn’t even think that the woman he dotes on plotted against Xi Rui, and that’s how he will hurt himself.”

Liang Youxiao wrote a letter and told how Ge Chunru plotted against Xi Rui.

Shi Qingluo chuckled and said: “If that’s the case, not only will your scumbag father not be able to make the Duke’s Mansion owe him a favor, he will probably be self-defeating.”

“But it’s good because your Scumbag Father will know what that woman did.”

“With your Scumbag Father’s temperament, he will feel uncomfortable in his heart.”

Why does that Scumbag Father like that woman so much? Shi Qingluo felt that in addition to being young and beautiful, she must treat that Scumbag Father as the best, and showed that he was everything to her.

She must also be particularly good at holding up this Scumbag Father, which greatly satisfies his vanity.

But now, when he learns that Ge Chunru found someone to plot against Xi Rui and offend the Duke’s Mansion for her brother’s sake.

And the main point was that this little, sweet wife deliberately didn’t let him know. Would the scumbag father not get hurt?

Xiao Hanzheng held Shi Qingluo’s hand and played with it: “Yes, I want to see if their feelings are that loyal and firm.”

Shi Qingluo hooked his hand with her little finger: “In addition to letting that woman suffer the consequences, I also thought of something that she can’t accept.”

Xiao Hanzheng asked curiously: “What?”

Shi Qingluo said: “The most painful thing in life, apart from losing the things you care about most, is being crushed by someone you always look down on.”

“Being treated like a treasure, then be discarded like worn-out shoes.”

“I think the thing she can’t accept the most in her life is your scumbag father’s ex-wife.”

Xiao Hanzheng was puzzled: “My Scumbag Father’s ex-wife?”

Shi Qingluo smiled and said: “Let your scumbag father turn around and realize that mother is good, and then turn around and fall in love with her.”

“Then mother will abandon him like a pair of worn shoes.”

Xiao Hanzheng was startled, realizing that the thoughts in his little wife’s head all day were really weird.

But thinking about the time when his scumbag father abandoned her mother, which caused her heartbreak and pain.

If one day the situation changes, he will feel comfortable thinking about it.

He said: “This is not easy to do.”

Shi Qingluo patted her chest and said: “Just leave it to me.”

A man with the temperament of that Scumbag Father likes women holding his stinky feet.

But if there were many women like this, would he still think Ge Chunru was special?

On the contrary, Mrs. Kong, the woman who once humbled and served him, changed after meeting again. She was no longer so weak and dependent, she became more individualistic and even more dismissive of him.

He will feel that his ex-wife is suddenly so different. She will design two more traps for this Scumbag Father to jump into. Let him see how good Mrs. Kong could be.

That’s not what the most appetizing.

If someone with a higher status than the Scumbag Father proposed to Mrs. Kong to marry him, that Scumbag Father definitely will be stimulated even more.

She used her arm to twist Xiao Hanzheng’s waist: “You won’t object to mother remarrying, right?”

Her mother-in-law was only in her early thirties, so there was no need to give up the rest of her life for a scumbag.

She would find a better man to pamper and love her, which can make that greedy scumbag father mad.

The main point was, she will make her mother-in-law be able to express her bad temper and let her find out that the Scumbag Father was nothing more than that.

The thorn in her heart will be pulled out, and she can live a peaceful and happy life with someone she loves in the future.

Xiao Hanzheng: “……”

His little wife started to think about his mother’s second marriage.

He didn’t hesitate much: “Of course, I won’t object.”

If his mother can find a man who can be good to her, he won’t mind having multiple stepfathers.

Shi Qingluo leaned her head on Xiao Hanzheng’s arm and rubbed it: “Brother Zheng, I knew you were the most responsible.”

For a man in this era, especially a scholar, it would be considered good if he could accept having a divorced mother, let alone support his mother remarrying.

She indeed found the best husband.

Xiao Hanzheng lowered his head kissed her forehead and said with a smile: “You!”

But his heart felt warm because his wife also kept his mother in her heart.

*

A few days later, in the capital.

At the General’s Mansion, study room.

Xiao Yuanshi sat on the main seat.

His confidant handed over a confession: “Master, the waiter in the shop has confessed. Someone paid him to put medicine in your wine glass.”

“We followed the clues and found that it was the servant next to Xi Rui.”

Xiao Yuanshi was not surprised: “It was indeed him who did it.”

The confidant asked: “Master, what should I do with the waiter in the shop?”

He wiped his neck and asked: “Do you want it?”

Xiao Yuanshi thought for a while, squinted his eyes, and said, “No need.”

“Bring him here to the General’s Mansion tomorrow, and I will take him to the Duke’s Mansion.”

He wanted to hand the person over to the Yamen.

But he knew that doing so would not hurt Xi Rui at all.

That servant will take all the charge on his body, and the Yamen will not dare to offend the Duke Mansion.

The Empress Dowager would also not let anything happen to Xi Rui.

So the best result would be, that he will take this handle and go to the Duke’s Mansion to exchange favors.

Any truly smart person in the capital would be able to figure out that he was plotted against.

Now that his reputation has been ruined, so what if he proves that he was calculated?

Since everything has reached this point, it was of course more cost-effective to exchange it for benefits.

As for Xi Rui and the Xi Family, of course, he will not let them go.

Now he can only bow his head, but one day in the future, he will make them pay this debt.

The confidant was a little confused, but he didn’t dare to ask any more questions, “Yes!”

It can be said that Xiao Hanzheng knew his Scumbag Father’s thoughts very clearly.

The next day, Xiao Yuanshi took the initiative to visit the Duke’s Mansion.

The old duke and his old friends have recently fallen in love with mahjong, so they won’t be at home this time.

Xi Rui’s father, Xi Xinheng, the eldest son of the Duke’s Mansion, received Xiao Yuanshi.

After Xi Xinheng heard what happened to Xiao Yuanshi, he asked someone to investigate it.

He also found out that it was his son who did the good deeds which made his head ache.

Hence, he guessed Xiao Yuanshi’s purpose.

After sitting down, he calmly asked straight to the point: “General Xiao, what’s the matter with your visit today?”

Xiao Yuanshi didn’t beat around the bush: “I came here today because I want to get an explanation from the Duke.”

Then handed over the waiter’s confession.
