Chapter 275
Xiao Yuanshi's expression darkened as he watched the second prince throw his sleeves and leave.
He folded the paper that the second prince didn't take away, put it in his arms, and returned to the general's mansion.
He went directly to Ge Chunru's yard.
Ge Chunru is looking at the account books. Recently, because she has moved out most of the money to subsidize her brother and sister, the expenses of the general's residence have shrunk a lot.
The money on the account is not enough for the monthly bill of the servant girl.
But she didn't want to use the little private housing subsidy she had, and she didn't dare to ask Xiao Yuanshi.
Last month, she only posted half of the monthly report. If she posted another half this month, she would be afraid that the servants of the general's residence would make irresponsible remarks in private.
So it's going to be a bit frustrating.
Seeing Xiao Yuanshi walk in, she immediately closed the ledger and stood up with a smile, "The general is back."
Xiao Yuanshi went over and sat down with a rare calm face.
Ge Chunru walked behind him and squeezed his shoulders for him thoughtfully, "Who made you unhappy again?"
Xiao Yuanshi asked, "You asked Zheng Tongfeng to save the beauty from the hero of Baili?"
Ge Chunru was stunned, "I didn't!"
It was indeed her idea to be a hero to save the beauty, but seeing Xiao Yuanshi's bad face, she naturally couldn't admit it.
"I just went to Zheng's house to match him and Bai Li."
She asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Yuanshi sneered, "Bai Li saw through it at a glance."
To be able to be saved by his weak and innocent daughter, a hero who can see through at a glance, shows how clumsy.
"Because of this hero saving the beauty, not only did Zheng'er and his wife find out that Zheng Tongfeng's intentions were impure, but they were also seen by the fifth prince and the son-in-law of the British government that day."
"The second prince is very angry."
When Ge Chunru heard the last sentence, her heart tightened, "How could this happen? Zheng Tongfeng doesn't look like such a Meng Lang."
That idiot, he failed as soon as he shot.
Even Xiao Baili could see the problem, showing how careless that idiot was.
Xiao Yuanshi turned to look at her, "Do you know Zheng Tongfeng? Is he really Bai Li's good match?"
Although he and his daughter didn't have much affection and broke up again, the other party was still his own child no matter what.
It never occurred to him to push his daughter into the fire pit.
Seeing him like this, Ge Chunru was a little nervous and guilty, "His father is a fourth-rank Beijing official with real power. Although he is not the eldest son, he is also the son and a scholar."
"In the future, it is also possible to raise people and jinshi in the examination."
She avoided the key point and said, "And their family is also willing to marry Baili, so I'm the only way."
Then he asked, "What? Is there something wrong with Zheng Tongfeng?"
Xiao Yuanshi felt disappointed when he saw her like this.
How did she become like this? A mouth full of lies, and he still wants to push his daughter into the fire pit so ruthlessly.
Bai Li is a woman, and with such a soft and weak temperament, it can't hinder her.
What about the innocent, innocent and kind-hearted wife once?
He was suddenly a little tired, and took the piece of paper out of his arms and handed it to Ge Chunru, "See for yourself."
Ge Chunru reached out and took it, opened it and looked at it, and her face changed again and again after reading it.
She did not expect that the second prince would go to investigate this.
Also, the fact that she had investigated several unmarried men behind her back, as well as the general conversation she instigated Madam Zheng to let Zheng Tongfeng marry Xiao Baili, were all found out.
Also because of the investigation and the dialogue, it can be proved that she knew that Zheng Tongfeng had raised a brothel woman as an outer room.
In fact, keeping an outside room is nothing.
Moreover, the conversation between Zheng Tongfeng and the outer chamber was actually overheard by the people of the second prince.
This is ugly.
Holding the paper, she panicked.
What I was thinking about was not what would happen to Xiao Yuanshi, but whether my sister would be implicated in the Second Prince's Mansion, making the Second Prince's impression of his sister bad.
Seeing her distracted, Xiao Yuanshi asked, "What do you think?"
Ge Chunru used to be habitually not taking much precautions against Xiao Yuanshi, and just happened to be lost in thought.
So he blurted out, "I'm worried that the second prince will anger my sister."
Xiao Yuanshi: "..." This woman is actually thinking of her sister now.
Why didn't she think about whether the second prince would anger him?
This made him feel angry, and what the old lady and others said came to his mind again.
After blurting out, Ge Chunru regretted it.
After all, she had always known that Xiao Yuanshi was the kind of person who wanted others to take him to heart.
He hurriedly remedied, "I'm also worried that you will be angered by the second prince."
Xiao Yuanshi: "..." It's too late.
"The second prince has already taken anger at me, and told me not to contact him recently."
He looked at Ge Chunru with disappointment, "I really didn't expect you to push Bai Li into this kind of fire pit."
"If Bai Li really married into the Zheng Mansion, Zheng Tongfeng would probably have deliberately bereaved his wife for the woman outside the house."
Only after losing a wife and marrying a step-wife does not have such high requirements for identity.
Zheng Tongfeng just gave the outer room of the brothel a new identity as a woman from an innocent family.
But his daughter became the victim.
It was the first time that Ge Chunru saw Xiao Yuanshi look at him with such eyes.
She couldn't help but panic again. The evidence was conclusive, and the second prince had already expressed his anger. If she made a sophistry, it would only make Xiao Yuanshi even more angry and disappointed.
He used to like her, and one of the things was that he didn't hide it from him.
So I burst out crying, "I, I was wrong."
"Husband, I'm jealous of Kong, because she can have so many children with you."
"I don't like her kids, so I can't help but get jealous."
"Xiao Baili's ability to marry into the Zheng family is indeed a tall order. That's why I want to promote the marriage between the two families."
"I thought that even if Zheng Tongfeng had someone outside, but with you as a general, the Zheng family wouldn't dare to do anything to Bai Li."
She cried with pear blossoms and wept, "I really didn't know that Zheng Tongfeng would want to get the eldest son out and straighten the concubine's room."
Xiao Yuanshi did not feel pity as much as she once did. It was just that what she did was too inauthentic.
"I've stressed to you again and again that you shouldn't do anything bad for Bai Li in this matter, but you've been deaf to her."
"I broke up with the Kong family and broke up with my three children for you. Why do you have to be jealous of her? Isn't that enough?"
"The key point is that it's not my business anymore, it also involves the second prince and your sister."
"Husband, I know I was wrong, and I will never do it again." Ge Chunru also regretted it. She really didn't expect this kind of thing to be discovered, and the second prince would go to investigate.
In her opinion, even if there is someone in Zheng Tongfeng's heart, Xiao Baili's marriage to Zheng Tongfeng is a high priority.
Xiao Yuanshi shook his head inwardly, there is no future.
In the future, he would never let Ge Chunru do it again.
This little wife was born into a small family. She used to do well, but now she is more and more petty.
He glanced at it and saw the ledger on the table.
Reached out and took it and turned it over at will.
Originally, I was only going to look at the ledger and think about how to save it next. Who knows, but after seeing the two months' accounts on the ledger, my face couldn't help but turn black.
