After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 113: So Angry Till He Vomited Blood

When Old Lady Xiao heard her words, she also wished that she could give the vixen a few slaps.

"Yes, you are innocent. It is all my fault as your mother-in-law.

"I shouldn't have thought that you were sincere when you asked me to take over as the lady of the house.

She immediately wiped her tears. "It's just that your act of secretly moving the storeroom hurts me too much.

"If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have reported it to the police.

"Since you're wary of me, why do you have to pretend that you want me to be the lady of the house?

Old Lady Xiao was now very adept at pretending to be a phoney. "I've really wronged you. We will just leave, alright?"

Once again, retreating was the best way to advance further.

Ge Chunru was speechless.

She really wanted to tear this pretentious old lady apart.

The more she did not scold her and the more she admitted her mistakes, the more she would embarrass her.

Xiao Yuanshi did not want Old Lady Xiao to continue arguing. "Mother, this matter is Chunru's fault. I've brought her here to apologize to you.

"You promised before that you would help me look after the general's manor.

"I'll get someone to restore these things in the storeroom later. It's better for you to take care of them. Otherwise, I won't be at ease."

He could not remain silent now. At the same time, he was doing it for the sake of the court chief and the others.

Old Lady Xiao was totally unhappy when she saw her son giving in to that foxy woman.

She became even angrier.

However, when she saw the boxes of gold, silver, and jewelry, her anger subsided quite a bit.

These were all for her sons and grandsons, so she had to guard them well.

"Sigh, since you said that, I'm indeed worried. After all, it's hard to guard against thieves."

She looked very reluctant. "Alright, I'll help you manage the household."

Xiao Yuanshi and Ge Chunru uttered under their breath, you don't have to agree so reluctantly.

Moreover, saying that it was difficult to guard against house thieves was really too disgusting.

After the old lady agreed, Xiao Yuanshi said to the court chief, "This is all a misunderstanding. It's completely a family matter within our house.

"Nobody stole the items in the storeroom.

"It's just that I've troubled everyone."

He immediately gave the butler a look.

He understood and took out a few purses and stuffed them into the hands of the court chief and the others.

This was indeed a family matter. They can't say that the general's wife stole items in the general's manor, right?

After working hard for an entire day, the court chief didn't give any leeway.

He took the lead to take the purses and said, "Alright, I hope that you will take good care of your family in the future, General Xiao."

Xiao Yuanshi raised his hands and cupped his fists. "I will!"

After sending the court chief and the rest away, the old lady stared at the butler and moved all the silver back to the storeroom.

She even forced Ge Chunru to hand over the real account book of the storeroom.

Ge Chunru had no choice but to hand it over.

She wanted to think of a way to deal with these people in private.

The more Ge Chunru thought about it, the angrier and more sullen she became.

She was already tired from being ordered around by the old lady, so she claimed that she was sick and did not serve the old lady for dinner.

This time, Old Lady Xiao did not insist on calling her over.

They were in an intermission.

Xiao Yuanshi and Ge Chunru thought that this matter would come to an end and that the general's manor would be temporarily more peaceful.

Who would have thought that the next day, the old Xiao family would cause a ruckus again.

Old Lady Xiao went out with the old lady next door the next morning, and Xiao Yuanshi sighed in relief.

He thought that she would not be a demon for the time being.

Who knew that not long after the court session ended, the housekeeper in the manor came to report that the old lady and the others had gone outside the capital academy to stir trouble.

Indeed, he had been ordered to attend the morning court session.

He was even scolded by the emperor and was holding back his anger.

When he heard what the housekeeper said, he suddenly felt like fainting on the spot.

He gritted his teeth and asked, "What nuisance are they creating?"

The butler answered truthfully, "The old lady said that our young master's character is bad and that he disrespected and beat up his elders.

"He doesn't deserve to study at the academy in the capital."

"The eldest master and the others were still injured from yesterday's beating.

"They also caused trouble and said that they were beaten up by him.

"They wanted the academy to provide an explanation."

Xiao Yuanshi was really going crazy. "What happened in the end?

"The academy sent the old lady and the others back first. They will send people to investigate.

"The old lady and the others were not willing.

"She even brought two ladies to the academy's gate to cry and make a scene, saying that she had been bullied to death."

"If the capital academy does not punish our young master, they will use a rope to hang him at the school gate."

Xiao Yuanahi remained silent. It was the same old trick again.

The housekeeper carefully said, "The academy found out what happened at the general's manor yesterday, and that the capital magistrate's people searched the young master's courtyard and retrieved the lost property.

"So the school expelled him on the grounds that he was disrespectful, beat up his elders, and had bad conduct."

"Fuck!" Xiao Yuanshi felt a sweetness in his chest, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"They are really here to subdue me. They're only happy if I'm dead."

He was truly furious and his blood was boiling.

Although he was disappointed in his brother-in-law, it wasn't to the point that he would give up on him.

He had spent quite a bit of money and a lot of favors to let him enroll in the capital academy.

It just so happened that his brother-in-law had made himself infamous.

He had personally taught him martial arts.

As long as he could continue, there wouldn't be much of a problem for him to clinch a zhuangyuan next year.

Now that everything had been destroyed by those bastards in the old Xiao family, how could he not be angry that he vomited blood.
