Xiao Yuanshi didn’t want to stay for even a quarter of an hour. After agreeing to Xiao Hanyi’s request, he said goodbye again turned around, and walked away quickly.

Shi Qingluo touched her chin when she saw this: “This is not a wolf’s den. Why is General Xiao running so fast?”

Liang Yulin wanted to laugh.

Xiao Yuanshi was squeezed like this and was forced to jump into the pit and bleed. If he didn’t run, he would be a fool.

This place was a wolf’s den for Xiao Yuanshi.

Today’s show was wonderful. He found that the people in the Xiao family were very interesting.

He thought so in his heart, but he couldn’t say it on the surface.

He chuckled and said: “I think this place is pretty good. Maybe General Xiao needs to go back to practicing calligraphy.”

Shi Qingluo found that this prince was also a sesame-filled one: “That’s right, let’s not disturb General Xiao from practicing calligraphy, otherwise if he still writes so ugly in the future, we will be blamed.”

Xiao Yuanshi, who had not walked far, almost staggered when he heard what the two said……

After Xiao Yuanshi left, everyone sat back in their seats and quickly started eating the hot pot with hot dishes.

Because Prince Yi stayed for dinner, Mrs. Kong and Xiao Baili also made other dishes and desserts.

Liang Yulin was eating mutton, with various stir-fried dishes and desserts that he had never eaten before. He was in a good mood and was even more glad that he stayed.

After eating, he left.

The next day, he came to have lunch in the name of seeing a doctor.

It was because the food made by Mrs. Kong and Xiao Baili suited his taste.

Of course, he didn’t come empty-handed and brought a lot of precious medicinal materials as gifts.

He did the same for the next few days.

While taking a medicinal bath and doing acupuncture, he could also eat and chat with Xiao Hanzheng to relieve his boredom.

He found that Xiao Hanzheng was not very old, but he could have some deep and unique insights on the topics he mentioned. No wonder his Imperial Brother valued him and prepared to use him.

That day, Xiao Yuanshi sent someone to pick up Xiao Hanyi to go back to the capital together.

He heard that Prince Yi went to Shi Qingluo’s manor every day, so he was determined not to go there in person.

Xiao Hanzheng didn’t restrain his younger brother.

However, he arranged several skilled “servants” around his younger brother.

Although his younger brother went to the general’s mansion openly, with his scumbag father’s temperament, he would not do anything to kill his younger son. After all, this was a big handle.

But Xiao Hanzheng was not so confident about Ge Chunru, so it was better to be careful.

Seeing that her younger brother was going to the General’s Mansion, Xiao Baili also became interested: “Brother and sister-in-law, how about I accompany Erlang to the General’s Mansion for 2 days?”

She hated Ge Chunru as much as anyone else, and she was happy to go to the General’s Mansion to annoy and squeeze them.

Xiao Hanzheng thought about it: “Okay, but you must be careful of Ge Chunru.”

When the child grows up, he must let them outgrow up.

He emphasized: “If you meet a foreign man in the General’s Mansion, you must avoid him.”

Shi Qingluo added: “If a foreign man dares to speak rudely or wants to tease you, you whip him to death.”

“If you beat him to death, blame your scumbag father.” She emphasized again.

Xiao Baili chuckled: “Okay, I’ll listen to my brother and sister-in-law.”

Besides her, Xiao Hanzheng also arranged people.

For safety reasons, he also gave his sister and brother detoxification sachets and several packets of bewitching powder.

If someone wants to harm them, sprinkle the bewitching powder and the other party will fall into a coma immediately.

“You go back with the scumbag father first. I will finish treating Prince Yi today, and we will go back to the capital.”

Xiao Hanzheng looked at his younger brother and sister and said: “If you can’t stay in the general’s mansion, or if something happens, go home.”

Xiao Baili and Xiao Hanyi both nodded obediently: “Okay!”

Then the two packed up took the servants and maids and left with the people sent by Xiao Yuanshi.

Shi Qingluo looked at the backs of the two and said with a smile: “It’s a pity that the scumbag father didn’t invite us to the general’s mansion, otherwise I would also like to go and have fun.”

Xiao Hanzheng laughed: “If you go, he will cry to death.”

Not only will the scumbag father cry, but Ge Chunru will also cry, so as long as the scumbag dad was not stupid, he will never invite them.

And his identity was not suitable for returning to the general’s mansion. He has to express a very clear attitude to the outside world and will never restore the father-son relationship with the scumbag father.

He would do it for others to see, and also for the Emperor to see.

As for his younger brother and sister going to the general’s mansion, that’s nothing, after all, they were still young.

Being coaxed by the scumbag father was normal in the eyes of outsiders.

What’s more, Prince Yi also knew their family’s attitude towards the scumbag father, and he would most likely mention it to the Emperor after returning to the capital.

It would also reassure the Emperor.

On the official road outside the manor, Xiao Yuanshi was waiting on horseback.

Three carriages came down from the manor, and he took the initiative to ride to greet them.

The carriage stopped, the door in the middle opened, and Xiao Baili and Xiao Hanyi got out of the carriage.

Xiao Yuanshi was stunned when he saw Xiao Baili: “Baili will also return to the capital with us?”

Xiao Baili smiled and replied softly: “I am worried about my brother being alone, so I also want to go to the general’s mansion as a guest.”

“General Xiao, you don’t mind, do you?”

Before, she called her former father just to annoy the scumbag father.

Now she called him General Xiao, mainly to express that their relationship has not been restored, so as not to let people misunderstand.

Xiao Yuanshi’s smile froze: “Of course, I don’t mind, I can’t wait to welcome you.”

A bit miscalculated.

However, looking at his daughter who always spoke softly and lovingly, he felt that it was okay to bring her along, and he could also cultivate feelings.

Without Shi Qingluo, the bad daughter-in-law, his daughter would still be as gentle and obedient as before.

There would be no trouble in the general’s mansion.

So he returned to the capital with his son and daughter.

As soon as he returned to the capital, he found that many people cast various looks at him.

Xiao Yuanshi felt something was wrong, so he asked someone to inquire.

Soon his attendant came back with the information.

“General, the news that you are going to build a cement road from the capital to the village has spread everywhere.”

“Now many people are waiting for you to start building the road so that they can come to work.”

Xiao Yuanshi: “……”

His original good mood to return to the capital was gone.

He didn’t need to check carefully. He knew that this matter was done by his eldest son, who was gentle on the surface but black-hearted behind the scenes.

This was to force him to build the road quickly.

He had no choice but to order: “You should start doing this today.”

“Recruit people in the city and nearby to build roads, and then go to the imperial cement workshop to order cement for the road to the village, and the money will be paid from the account of the general’s mansion.”

He could only comfort himself in his heart. After all, building roads was a good thing, and he could also gain a good reputation.

But Xiao Yuanshi only guessed half right.

In the past few days in the village, Xiao Hanzheng’s people have been spreading the news all over the capital.

General Xiao was so guilty of misunderstanding and hurting his former wife that he couldn’t sleep well every night, and even had nightmares.

So he wanted to compensate his former wife.

His former wife asked him to build a cement road, and he agreed because of guilt.

So Xiao Yuanshi was nominally responsible for spending money to build roads, but no one thought of thanking him.

Therefore, Xiao Yuanshi almost spent money in vain, which he hadn’t thought of yet……

*

In the general’s mansion, Ge Chunru naturally heard the recent rumors outside.

She was angry and resentful. She didn’t expect Xiao Yuanshi to get involved with the village woman, Mrs. Kong again.

She didn’t think that Xiao Yuanshi took the initiative to find Mrs. Kong, but thought that Mrs. Kong must still be thinking about Xiao Yuanshi, so she deliberately wanted to seduce him.

She couldn’t let Kong succeed, so she prepared to go to the manor to find him in two days.

Who would have thought that Xiao Yuanshi was back?

So she immediately changed into new clothes, put on makeup, put on a newly made fiery red fur coat, and took the initiative to go to the door to greet him.

Tao Liu also dressed up carefully and ran to the door to greet him.

Then the two not only saw Xiao Yuanshi but also saw Xiao Baili and Xiao Hanyi following behind him.

Tao Liu was just surprised and then returned to normal.

While Ge Chunru was frozen in place. Why did these two little bastards follow to the general’s mansion?
