Xiao Yuanshi looked at Mrs. Kong with some disbelief in his eyes.

This woman asked him to build a road in the name of compensation for her, how much money would it cost?

She thought of it.

He took back his previous thoughts, and everything changed.

He was completely led astray by Shi Qingluo, the bad daughter-in-law……

Shi Qingluo didn’t expect that her mother-in-law had just learned it during the day and would use it now.

She couldn’t help but praise it in her heart: Well done.

“Former father-in-law, don’t you want compensation? Are you just joking?”

“My mother-in-law’s request is not excessive. Not only can you compensate her, but you can also do good things for the people.”

“Give her an answer!”

Mrs. Kong also said: “Yes, or are you just lying again?”

“If you don’t want to compensate us, just say it directly. We won’t ask for it.”

“However, you asked me, and I answered, but you didn’t want to give it. You are too hypocritical.”

Since she beat and scolded Xiao Yuanshi, she felt very smooth when she confronted him.

Xiao Yuanshi: “……”

He was wrong. He really shouldn’t have come today.

At this moment, he inexplicably felt that he was a lamb to be slaughtered. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sharpening their knives to attack him.

Seeing Prince Yi looking over, Xiao Yuanshi could only bite the bullet and smile awkwardly: “I didn’t say I disagree. Why do you have to conclude so early?”

He looked at his ex-wife with deep eyes, who had completely changed and was almost unrecognizable.

With a gentle indulgence on his face: “Since that’s what you want, I will naturally compensate you. I will build this road.”

But he was gritting his teeth in his heart.

Kong, well done.

When she enters the general’s mansion again, he will teach her how to be a good wife again.

Prince Yi was here. He just took the initiative to promise to compensate them. Naturally, he can’t regret it or find excuses to shirk it.

Otherwise, if Prince Yi goes to the palace to chat with the Emperor about this matter one day, the Emperor’s impression of him will be greatly reduced.

So he had to bear the pain and cut his flesh.

Mrs. Kong smiled brightly: “Then I thank General Xiao on behalf of the people here.”

“But words are not enough. Let’s sign a written document.”

“It just so happens that the weather has been sunny recently without rain or snow. You can ask people to start the work.”

“If it’s hard to find people, you can just ask nearby villagers to repair it. Pay them wages every day. Repairing the road will also benefit them. I believe many people will come.”

This also blocked all the excuses Xiao Yuanshi could find.

Otherwise, if the scumbag father keeps dragging it out, he will disappear in the future, and she will not be in vain.

She must trick him today.

Xiao Yuanshi: “……”

When did Kong Yuelan become so cunning?

Liang Yulin’s smile deepened. Mrs. Kong played this trick well, leaving Xiao Yuanshi with no way out. She was really smart.

Xiao Hanzheng treated him, so he naturally had to give something back.

So he smiled and said: “This is a good thing, then I will be a witness.”

Xiao Yuanshi: “……”

I will check the horoscope before going out in the future.

He could only force a smile: “Since I promised, I will do it naturally.”

He looked at Mrs. Kong again, and said with a look of “I am happy for you”: “If you want to sign an agreement letter, then sign it.”

Mrs. Kong had goosebumps from his gentle and indulgent eyes.

This scumbag has excellent acting skills, no wonder she was deceived back then.

If she didn’t know his true face, she might fall into his “gentle” trap again.

She said to her youngest son: “Erlang, go get some paper and brush, and ask General Xiao to write the document.”

Xiao Hanyi immediately got up and went out, and soon came back with the four treasures of the study.

He took the initiative to put them on the table in front of Xiao Yuanshi’s seat: “General Xiao, please.”

Xiao Yuanshi felt very uncomfortable when he heard his son address him.

He felt a little resentful towards Ge Chunru again.

She didn’t like other women around him, so he divorced Mrs. Kong, so why still ask him to break off the relationship with his children?

He looked at Xiao Hanyi with a loving smile: “Erlang is sensible.”

This was the truth. He found that his youngest son was very well-behaved and sensible. He was so gentle and refined at such a young age. It was said that he was not bad in academics, better than many young masters of aristocratic families.

He was not even ten years old now. If he takes him back and keeps him by his side, he can still be trained well.

Xiao Hanyi looked at him shyly, but what he said was very hurtful: “The aunts in the village also praised me like this before, after all, children from poor families grow up early.”

Xiao Yuanshi: “……”

He takes back his previous thought, his youngest son has also been led astray.

Is this the result of not caring about his family back then?

He didn’t know how to respond, so he could only keep his face unchanged. However, he was angry in his heart, so he picked up the brush and wrote a letter.

Mrs. Kong added: “Remember to write down the time, start repairing in the next few days, because you feel guilty to compensate me, and write that it will be completed within 3 months.”

Otherwise, after three months, the dead scumbag would go to the northern border, and if they don’t continue to repair it, who will they go to.

Xiao Yuanshi: “……”

This woman is getting harder and harder to fool.

He didn’t say anything but still wrote down Mrs. Kong’s request.

After all, they agreed, there was no need to refute because of a small matter.

Shi Qingluo looked at the Scumbag Father’s face almost turned green. She wanted to laugh.

He deserved this. He sent himself to their door to be punished. Who made him only know how to calculate all day long?

After the Scumbag Father finished writing, Xiao Hanyi took the paper from him and handed it to his mother.

Mrs. Kong took it and looked at it, and said with disdain: “Your handwriting is hideous.”

Then she looked at Xiao Yuanshi and persuaded him earnestly: “Although you are a military general, I heard that you are also a Confucian general. It just so happens that you have been dismissed from the office and are reflecting at home recently. You should practice calligraphy more at home.”

Xiao Yuanshi: “……”

He wanted to turn upside down the table and leave.

These words were not very hurtful, but they were extremely insulting, and he couldn’t stand it.

He asked with a fake smile: “Yuelan, can you understand what I wrote?”

His meaning was: ‘You are a woman who doesn’t understand writing, don’t talk nonsense here.’

Mrs. Kong knew what he meant, and took the initiative to get up and walk over.

“When I married you, I had endless work to do all day long. I had to serve your family and take care of the children. How could I have time to learn to write?”

“But after I divorced you, my son and daughter-in-law were filial and only let me manage the workshop and didn’t allow me to do rough work anymore, so I also learned to read and practiced every day.”

“I will write a copy of what you just wrote to see whose handwriting is better.”

She heard her daughter-in-law say that learning more knowledge can broaden her horizons, so she was very serious when her son and daughter-in-law taught her to read.

She would practice writing for at least an hour every day.

So now she wanted to let Xiao Yuanshi see that she was delayed by him, a dead scumbag.

After that, she walked to the table, picked up a pen, and began to copy what Xiao Yuanshi wrote.

The table was in front of Xiao Yuanshi, so Mrs. Kong lowered her head to write, he could see it clearly, and he could also smell the faint fragrance on her body, which was very pleasant.

The way she wrote seriously gave people a feeling of clouds rolling and unwinding, and he couldn’t help but be fascinated by it.

Soon, Mrs. Kong finished writing on the paper and handed it directly to Xiao Yuanshi: “Look, isn’t it as good as what you, a great general, wrote?”

What it meant was: ‘I, a village woman, can write better than you, a great general, aren’t you ashamed?’
