Chapter 198 Almost ran out of breath and fainted

Mrs. Xiao and others knew that Ge Chunru was reluctant to part with him.

I was even more determined to get this woman down.

They would be at a huge disadvantage if she continued to control the general's mansion.

But we can't let what the second child earns come at the expense of this little hooves and her younger siblings.

Xiao Yuanshi didn't expect the old Xiao family to be so ruthless.

He said: "Mom, two-thirds is too much."

Mrs. Xiao did not bargain, "Then report it to the official. I will divorce this vicious woman and let everyone in the capital know what kind of person she is."

"As long as we vent this bad breath, the money in the general's mansion will be free of charge."

Xiao Yuanshi: "..." Why don't you go to heaven?

Sure enough, once the old Xiao family got involved with that bad daughter-in-law, they became particularly difficult to deal with.

"Mom, the second prince has fallen in love with Chun Ru's sister, and will marry her back as a concubine in a while."

Xiao Yuanshi continued: "We have to prepare a generous dowry for her, otherwise what will the second prince think of us?"

"If Chunyi becomes the second prince's concubine, I can also ask the second prince to help take care of Dalang and Erlang."

Since he wants to talk about interests, he should start with interests.

If you say this, the people of the old Xiao family should be wary and no longer be so harsh on their wives.

When everyone in the old Xiao family heard this, their hearts skipped a beat.

It's really unreasonable that even Ge Chunru's sister can marry the second prince as a concubine.

Mr. Xiao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly looked at his son and asked: "Second brother, you have helped a lot, right?"

In the Xiao family, the old lady basically makes the decision, but once the old man speaks, he has a lot of weight.

Xiao Yuanshi knew that the old man looked silent, but he was not as easy to fool as the old lady and others.

His dad has always been smarter than the others.

He still remembered that when he went to serve in the military, his father secretly gave him a few taels of silver and prepared some food.

In the past, at home, it was mainly the old lady who was the most partial.

So he still has some feelings for the old man.

He said meaningfully: "Father, sending Chunyi to be the second prince's concubine will do more good than harm to the general's palace."

Mr. Xiao sighed, "You!"

"When someone becomes a concubine, won't you have to be shorter?"

"Your wife can't give birth to a child, and you have broken up with Zheng'er and the others. What will you do in the future? There are no more people to break the pot."

He looked at Xiao Yuanshi with worried eyes, "If I take it one step further, won't the three siblings be on top of you?"

"It doesn't matter to us. We have to go to Northern Xinjiang anyway. If we can't, we can go back to Xiaxi Village to farm."

"But I really can't watch you become a queen!"

The old man's words were half true and half false. Although he didn't like this son the most, he was still his biological son after all.

Previously, when his son wanted to break up with the Xiao Hanzheng siblings and separate their families, he opposed it.

But the son was like a man possessed. He was so fascinated by Ge Chunru that he couldn't find anything to do with him. He didn't even listen to his words.

Now look, this Ge Chunru is a troublemaker, but Xiao Hanzheng, the grandson, looks promising at first sight.

Being cared about by the old man made Xiao Yuanshi feel good in his heart.

Xiao Yuanshi replied: "Dad, I know you care about me, but I know better, so don't worry."

Since Ge Chunyi was to be sent to the Second Prince's Mansion, how could he not make any preparations?

Besides, how can a woman from the back house really influence the court?

If the second prince was such a fatuous person who could be influenced by women, he wouldn't have the support of so many people.

The purpose of sending someone to be a concubine was just to deepen the connection between the Second Prince's Palace and the General's Palace.

However, after his father's reminder, he was ready to hold on to it one more time.

Ge Chunru was surprised that the old man would say such provocative words.

This is entirely to stop the general from supporting her younger siblings.

I secretly resented it so much that on the way to Northern Xinjiang, this old man's legs were also broken.

Mr. Xiao waved his hand, "As long as you know what's going on."

"We are old, and we only hope that you will be well in the future."

Anyway, his purpose is to plant a thorn in his son's heart, so that he will not be so concerned about Ge Chunru and his sister in the future.

He knew very well that this son was a narrow-minded person.

Mrs. Xiao pretended to wipe away tears, "Yes, your eldest nephew is like this, and you actually don't care and go to help the sister of the person who harmed him. Your conscience has been eaten by dogs."

Xiao Yuanshi took a step back and said, "I'll give you two-thirds of the money in the warehouse, calligraphy, painting, antiques, etc. It's useless for you to take it."

He also has a small private treasury with a lot of money.

The people of Lao Xiao's family accepted it as soon as they saw fit. After all, they couldn't take those paintings, calligraphy and antiques with them on the road.

Mrs. Xiao said: "In addition to the silver, we also have to give us two-thirds of the jewelry."

Ge Chunru pinched Xiao Yuanshi, but he couldn't agree to this.

She wants to marry her sister.

Xiao Yuanshi couldn't help but frown. His wife cared too much about her siblings.

But seeing her beaten and swollen face, I felt a little guilty.

"One third, no more."

"After all, the second prince has promised me to marry Chunyi as his concubine. If the dowry is too small, it will bring disgrace to our general's palace."

He looked at the old Xiao family members thoughtfully and continued: "When I am better, Da Lang and Er Lang will have a better future."

The old man agreed, "Okay, that'll be it."

It is a good thing that the son can catch up with the second prince.

You can't completely force people to leave their hearts, but it gives advantages to Ge Chunru and his sister.

The people of the old Xiao family did not show their cards now, saying that they had a backup plan. If they were intercepted or robbed midway, it would be Xiao Yuanshi and his two brothers' fault.

This was what Shi Qingluo told them to discuss on the day they left.

Otherwise, they are afraid that Ge Chunru will cause trouble again. They think it makes sense.

After the negotiation was settled, the old lady and others left the yard.

Xiao Yuanshi hugged Ge Chunru and promised again, saying that he would never touch Na's concubine.

Taking concubines is just a show, so that people can be comforted.

When he returned to his yard, Xiao Yuanshi felt tired.

Two days later, he went to the government office and heard his colleagues expressing sympathy for him.

The implication was that he was actually afraid of his wife, so he couldn't help but blush.

When did he become afraid of his wife? These people are talking nonsense.

When I inquired about it, I found out that it was his own mother who went outside to tell people that his wife could not have children and he was not allowed to have concubines, so he did not dare to have concubines.

Xiao Yuanshi really wanted to vomit blood after hearing this. He just wanted to send the old Xiao family out of the capital as soon as possible. He was really scared of being cheated...

After Ge Chunru waited for the swelling on her face to subside, she took her sister to the jewelry store.

Then I received a lot of looks of contempt and sympathy.

She couldn't hold back and asked the maid to inquire. After getting the result, she almost fainted.

That damn old woman actually went outside and said that she would never be able to give birth again. She was so vicious.

The mood to buy jewelry was completely gone, so I took my sister downstairs to prepare to go home.

Then suddenly I heard someone whispering not far away.

"No wonder I heard that General Xiao is raising a baby outside. It turns out that the general's wife is unable to give birth."
