Chapter 396 You Are Really Good

Xiao Yuanshi left the courtyard and called the housekeeper over.

He asked, "Have the people from King Jin's Mansion been here?"

The housekeeper followed Xiao Yuanshi's henchmen from the General's Mansion, and he replied respectfully, "When the Governor was out one day, the concubine of King Jin's Mansion sent a maid to bring a housewarming gift, which was received by his wife."

"After the person left, Madam put the gift from King Jin's side concubine into the storehouse. It wasn't something rare, just a few pairs of china and some fabrics."

Because it was an exchange between the backyards, and the deputy governor was very busy in those days, he didn't take the initiative to say it.

Xiao Yuanshi thought for a while, "You secretly bring the trusted servant girl beside Madam."

He stressed, "Don't let the lady find out."

The housekeeper was stunned for a while, but he didn't ask more: "Yes!"

After the housekeeper left, Xiao Yuanshi looked at the account book in the house, which was a bit tricky, but it was only a few hundred taels of silver.

It seems that Ge Chun is like a private house.

He also felt a little disgusted because of this. It was really too petty for Ge Chunru to do this.

But it was only a few hundred taels of silver, so he didn't bother to pursue it.

After a while, the housekeeper secretly brought in Ge Chunru's most trusted maid.

The maid trembled when she saw Xiao Yuanshi's body, "I have seen the deputy governor."

Xiao Yuanshi said, "Look up and look at me."

The maid trembled again, and looked up at Xiao Yuanshi cautiously, but her eyes seemed uneasy.

Xiao Yuanshi's heart skipped a beat, which was obviously a sign of guilty conscience.

"Let me ask you, before the concubine of King Jin asked people to give housewarming gifts, what else was there besides the things that were put into the warehouse?"

As soon as these words came out, the maid's expression became even more flustered.

Xiao Yuanshi released the power all over his body and patted the table, "Say, or I will sell your whole family to mine."

When the maid heard this, she immediately knelt down in fright.

She thought that the deputy governor already knew, and she did not dare to drag the whole family.

So he said tremblingly: "Also, there is another box, which was put away by Madam alone."

Xiao Yuanshi clenched his hand holding the ledger, "Are there any banknotes in the box?"

The maid was flustered, and the deputy governor knew it.

That's why she didn't make any excuses, "Yes."

Xiao Yuanshi rose up in anger, "How many banknotes do you have?"

The maid replied truthfully, "Fifty thousand taels of silver."

Xiao Yuanshi's eyes shrank, "Mrs. Yinzi has been put away, what else do you use it for?"

The maid felt Xiao Yuanshi's anger, and her body trembled with fright, "The madam keeps 10,000 taels for herself, and the remaining 40,000 taels will be sent to the capital for Concubine Ge."

"Bang!" Xiao Yuanshi couldn't hold back, stood up and kicked the chair towards such a maid.

The chair slammed heavily on the maid.

She let out a scream and was knocked unconscious.

Xiao Yuanshi opened the door of the study and walked quickly towards Ge Chunru's yard.

At this moment, Ge Chunru just finished eating with Ge Chunyi and sat chatting.

Ge Chunyi began to complain about how many crimes he had suffered before.

Hearing this made Ge Chunru feel so distressed, and his resentment towards Xiao Yuanshi increased.

"Bang!" Suddenly the door was kicked open.

Ge Chunru was about to get angry when he saw Xiao Yuanshi walking in with a livid face.

She also thought that Xiao Yuanshi was provoked by the old Xiao family and Shi Qingluo again.

In addition, I just heard my brother's complaint, and I felt angry in my heart.

She didn't stand up, but sat and looked at him with a bit of sarcasm, "The deputy governor is so majestic!"

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yuanshi laughed angrily, "You don't have the majesty of the deputy governor's wife."

He glanced coldly at Ge Chunyi and Niu, "You two get out."

Xiao Yuanshi has been on the battlefield, and his aura is very fierce, and he also has a bit of evil spirit.

So both Ge Chunyi and Niu were taken aback.

When the two of them saw him like this, they didn't dare to ask any more questions, and went out the door in despair.

As for Ge Chunru in the room, neither of them thought about it.

Ge Chunyi knew how much Xiao Yuanshi liked and cared about his sister, so he didn't think what the other party would do.

After coming out, I was not even angry.

It was too much for Xiao Yuanshi to actually tell them to go away just now.

But he didn't have the guts to go in and ask questions, and even when Xiao Yuanshi personally asked them to leave, he could only take Niu back to the room.

After Ge Chunyi and the others left, Xiao Yuanshi turned around and closed the door.

When Ge Chunru saw him like this, he couldn't help but startled.

"General, what's wrong with you?"

"Did the old lady and Shi Qingluo tell you something about me again?"

Xiao Yuanshi didn't answer and asked: "The concubine of King Jin's mansion sent a silver note as a housewarming gift, why didn't you tell me?"

Hearing this, Ge Chunru panicked, even startled.

How did Xiao Yuanshi know?

"This, this is a housewarming gift. I saw that you were very busy in those days, so I forgot to tell you."

Xiao Yuanshi already knew about the banknotes, and she could not admit it.

Xiao Yuanshi stared at her coldly, "What about the silver note?"

Ge Chunru's eyes flickered, and she quickly revealed that she had done something wrong, "I lost part of the silver note."

Xiao Yuanshi squinted his eyes and asked, "I lost it? How could I lose the silver note?"

Ge Chunru was a little afraid of Xiao Yuanshi like this, so he didn't dare to tell the truth, "I packed it in two purses and took it to Chunyi, who knew that on the way back, the one with 40,000 taels of silver bills would be there. The purse is gone."

"I suspect that the old Xiao family took it. After all, Chunyi's 30,000 taels were stolen by them before."

"But I don't dare to tell you, because I'm afraid it will affect your relationship with the old man and the old lady."

She thought to herself, since Xiao Yuanshi knew about the money, nine times out of ten, it was revealed by Jin Wangfu.

Xiao Yuanshi's face became even more ugly, "Ge Chunru, you are really good."

"It's a set of lies, and you will even give your sister the 40,000 taels, which will be directly framed on my family."

"Why, in your eyes, the people of our old Xiao family are all thieves?"

His chest was full of anger, "Don't forget, the 30,000 taels of Ge Chunyi, but you secretly misappropriated the public account of the General's Mansion to him."

He really didn't expect that Ge Chunru was not only so daring, he received so many banknotes from King Jin's Mansion without telling him, but sent the banknotes to Ge Chunyi, and even falsely accused his parents and others of stealing it.

People who dare to love their family look like thieves, so their family members are good?

For the first time, he found that he himself did not seem to know Ge Chunru's wife.

If he hadn't asked her maid in private just now, he might have been fooled by her.

Ge Chunru's eyes widened, obviously not expecting Xiao Yuanshi to know that she sent the 40,000 taels to the capital to her sister.

This couldn't help but panic.

But when she thought about it, it was nothing. After all, she borrowed 20,000 taels from her sister before, and it was nothing to double it back.

But now Xiao Yuanshi is obviously very angry, she has to coax people.
