Old Lady Xiao heard Shi Qingluo’s words.
Her smiling face immediately darkened, and she looked at Xiao Yuanshi and said: “Second son, do you not welcome us?”
Xiao Yuanshi: “……”
He knew it would be like this.
He resisted the urge to hold his forehead: “Mother, how could I not welcome you.”
“I wanted someone to pick you and father to Beicheng.”
Of course, this was not the case, but it has to be said to the outside world.
Old Lady Xiao snorted: “I think you are a deputy governor, and your official power is getting bigger and bigger.”
“You didn’t greet us, your parents when you met us, but you care about your wife first.”
“Don’t you see what your wife has done, she…”
Before Old Lady Xiao finished her words, Xiao Yuanshi immediately stepped forward to support her: “Mother, you and my father have been on the road for so many days, you have worked hard, let’s go to the mansion first.”
If he continued to talk like this, everything that Ge Chunru did in Heyang County would be told in public by his mother.
He couldn’t afford to lose face.
He looked at Shi Qingluo and Xi Rong again: “Zheng’er’s wife, you should also bring your friends in.”
Shi Qingluo smiled meaningfully: “Vice-Governor Xiao is so anxious to let us in, is he afraid that we will say something at the gate?”
Xiao Yuanshi: “……”
I beg you to be a human being for once.
“How could it be? I have prepared tea and snacks, let’s go in first.”
Then he immediately forced Old Lady Xiao to walk into the mansion, fearing that Shi Qingluo, the bad wife, would say something embarrassing to him again.
Shi Qingluo watched the scumbag father running away. She couldn’t help but curl her lips.
Seeing this, Old Man Xiao squinted his eyes. Sure enough, this second son still cared about his reputation when he arrived in the Northern Frontier. This was easy to deal with.
Then the group also entered the mansion. Xiao Yuanshi’s confidants immediately closed the door to isolate all kinds of curious eyes from watching outside.
After entering the house, Old Lady Xiao shook off Xiao Yuanshi’s hand: “I don’t need your fake filial support.”
Xiao Yuanshi looked helpless: “Mother, you just came to Beicheng, I didn’t provoke you, did I?”
Old Lady Xiao looked at him with squinting eyes: “You didn’t provoke me, but your wife asked her maid to beat me and your father.”
“If you hadn’t indulged her, would she be so bold?”
Xiao Yuanshi knew he would face this problem.
He looked at Ge Chunru: “You asked the maid to beat my parents?”
Ge Chunru felt very happy when she beat them, but now she feels a little guilty.
“General, I was possessed by evil spirits at that time, so I did something wrong.”
She glanced at Old Man Xiao and Old Lady Xiao: “I am willing to apologize to my parents-in-law.”
Old Lady Xiao sneered and waved her hands: “I dare not let such a fierce daughter-in-law apologize. When the time comes, you will hold a grudge and maybe let someone poison our food.”
Ge Chunru: “……”
This damn old woman found fault as soon as she entered the door.
She was too much.
She was originally tearful, and now she burst into tears: “Mother, how dare I do this.”
“I didn’t mean to let anyone do it before. You can beat or scold me now.”
In front of Xiao Yuanshi, she naturally became the weaker party.
Shi Qingluo laughed and said: “When you beat the old lady and the old man before, you shouted and beat them. How fierce were you at that time?”
Old Madam Xiao also said: “That’s right, I dare not beat or scold you, otherwise our whole family will die without knowing how.”
Ge Chunru was very upset: “I didn’t.”
Old Lady Xiao said with a gloomy face: “Don’t cry all day long, make it seem like your man is dead, no wonder the second son is so unlucky in the capital, it’s all because of you, the unlucky star.”
Xiao Yuanshi: “……”
What do you mean by ‘it seems like the man is dead’, his mother cursed him like this?
Ge Chunru: “……”
You, a dead old woman, and others are the unlucky stars.
Shi Qingluo carefully looked at Ge Chunru’s face: The old lady, it turns out that the old ginger is still spicy.
“Don’t say it, Little Mother Ge’s face indeed looks unlucky.”
Old Lady Xiao believed this. Because Shi Qingluo was the apprentice of the Old Immortal Priest.
Then she said to Ge Chunru in a very unlucky way: “No wonder my son was transferred back to the capital after great difficulty from the northern border, but he was brought back by you.”
“Your parents were also killed by you, and my son could have had two children, but you caused them to be aborted, and your brother’s leg was broken by you.”
She looked at Xiao Yuanshi with disdain: “Second son, were you blind at the time to marry such an unlucky jinx?”
Xiao Yuanshi: “……”
Suddenly it seemed to make sense.
Then he immediately shook his head. How could he almost be led astray by his mother and bad daughter-in-law?
But looking at Ge Chunru, who was now in tears, he also felt that it seemed a bit unlucky.
Not to mention, he lost his reputation in the capital and was transferred back to the northern border, mostly because of Ge Chunru.
He had lost so much money and people before.
Is her fate really that rough?
Ge Chunru was so angry that she fell backward: “Mother, I already know I was wrong, but you can’t say that about your daughter-in-law!”
How can she live if she is labeled as a jinx?
How will Xiao Yuanshi, her brother, and sister look at her?
Old Lady Xiao snorted: “You are a jinx to begin with, but you don’t let people say that.”
Then she suggested: “Second son if this daughter-in-law doesn’t work, mother will make the decision for you and divorce her.”
This was what Shi Qingluo taught her to retreat to advance. This beast would not agree to divorce Ge Chunru, and the reason why she said this first was to pave the way for the next proposal.
Ge Chunru’s face changed, and she immediately reached out to grab Xiao Yuanshi: “General, Mother misunderstood me, I was wrong about the previous matter.”
Although she didn’t think Xiao Yuanshi would divorce her, she was really afraid that the old woman would do it.
Xiao Yuanshi’s face was a little ugly. Ge Chunru said that she was wrong and would change more than once.
But every time she finished speaking, she did it again soon after.
But he really couldn’t divorce his wife now. First, he spent so much money to marry his wife, and he loved her. If he divorced her now, wouldn’t it mean that he was blind?
Secondly, he had just arrived in Beicheng not long ago, and he divorced his wife all of a sudden. How would others view him?
He said to the old lady: “Mother, forget about the divorce. If people know about this, they will laugh to death.”
Old Lady Xiao sneered: “Divorcing your wife will be laughed to death, then your wife will not be laughed at if she lets people beat up her parents-in-law?”
“By the way, I also heard that your wife cheated on you. You can even tolerate this.”
She said to Xiao Yuanshi: “Second son, I look down on you now.”
No matter what, Xiao Yuanshi was also his son. No mother would be happy to see her son being cheated by his wife.
Hearing the old lady’s words, Xiao Yuanshi’s face became even uglier, and Ge Chunru’s face turned even paler.
How did the old woman know about this?
She looked at Shi Qingluo, her eyes full of anger: “Shi Qingluo, did you go to the old lady to slander me?”
