Xiao Yuanshi looked at Mother Xiao in disbelief.
This woman actually wanted him to repair the road to compensate her. How much money would that cost?
She was really thinking.
He retracted his previous thoughts.
No matter how kind and virtuous she was, everything had changed.!!
He was completely led astray by his bad daughter-in-law, Shi Qingluo…
Shi Qingluo had not expected that her mother-in-law, who had just started learning during the day, would use it now.
She could not help but praise her in her heart. Well done.
“Ex-father-in-law, didn’t you want to make up for it? Could it be that it was just for fun?
“The request that my mother-in-law put forward is not excessive. Not only can you make it up to her, but you can also do good things for the people.
“Give a reply!”
Mother Xiao also added, “That’s right. Are you lying through your teeth again?
“If you don’t want to make it up, just say it. We won’t take the initiative to ask for it.
“You took the initiative to offer it, but when I brought it up, you couldn’t bear to part with it.
“You’re too hypocritical.”
Ever since she had beaten and scolded Xiao Yuanshi, she felt that it was very simple to argue with him.
Xiao Yuanshi sighed, he was wrong.
He really shouldn’t have come today.
At this moment, he inexplicably felt that he was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
This pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were so eager to make a move on him.
Seeing Prince Yi looking at him, Xiao Yuanshi could only bite the bullet and smile embarrassedly. “I didn’t say that I didn’t agree. Why do you have to make such a conclusion so early?”
He looked at his ex-wife, who had become completely unrecognizable.
A gentle and indulgent look appeared on his face. “Since it’s what you want, I will naturally make it up to you. I will fix this.”
However, in his heart, he looked like he was gnashing his teeth.
Mdm Kong, well done.
When you enter the general’s residence again, I will teach you how to be a good wife again.
Prince Yi was here. He had actively agreed for him to make it up to her.
Naturally, he could not go back on his word or find an excuse to shirk.
Otherwise, if Prince Yi went into the palace one day to chat with the emperor about this matter, the emperor’s impression of him would definitely worsen greatly.
So, he could only bear the pain and give a portion of his own assets.
Mother Xiao revealed a brilliant smile. “Then, on behalf of the people here, I thank Senior General Xiao.
“But words have no basis. Let’s write it down.
“It just so happens that the weather has been clearing up recently and there hasn’t been any rain or snow. You can get people to start work.
“If it’s not easy to find people, we can just find the villagers nearby to repair it. We can pay them every day.
“In addition, repairing the road will also be beneficial to them. I believe many people will come.”
These words also blocked all the excuses that Xiao Yuanshi could come up with.
Otherwise, if this damned scumbag kept dragging it out, he would disappear without a trace in the future.
She would not set up a stage for nothing.
No matter what, she had to trick him today.
Xiao Yuanshi asked himself, when did Mdm Kong become so shrewd?
The smile in Liang Yulin’s eyes intensified.
Mdm Kong had played this trick well, leaving Xiao Yuanshi with no way out. They were really smart.
Xiao Hanzheng had treated him, so he naturally had to return the favor.
Thus, he smiled and said, “This is a good thing. I will be the witness.”
Xiao Yuanshi thought to himself, in the future, when he went out, he had to look at the almanac.
He could only force a smile. “Since I have agreed, I will naturally do it.”
Then, he looked at Mother Xiao and said with a look that said that he was happy for her, “If you want to write a letter, then do it.”
Mother Xiao felt goosebumps all over when she saw his gentle and indulgent gaze.
This scumbag really knew how to act. No wonder she was deceived back then.
If she did not know his true colors, she might have fallen into his “gentle” trap again.
She said to her youngest son, “Erlang, go and get a brush and paper for General Xiao to write a note.”
Xiao Erlang immediately stood up and went out.
Soon, he returned with the four treasures of the study.
He took the initiative to put them on the table in front of Xiao Yuanshi’s seat. “General Xiao, please.”
When Xiao Yuanshi heard his son address him, he felt very uncomfortable.
Once again, he felt a little resentful towards Ge Chunru.
She didn’t like the fact that he had other women by his side.
She had already removed Mdm Kong from her position, so why did she still want him to break off his kinship with his children?
He looked at Xiao Erlang and revealed a loving smile. “Erlang is really sensible.”
These words were the truth. He realized that his younger son was very obedient and sensible.
He was already gentle and refined at such a young age.
He heard that he was not bad in his studies either.
He was even better than many young masters from aristocratic families.
He was not even ten years old yet. If he brought him back and raised him by his side, he could still nurture him well.
Xiao Erlang looked at him bashfully, but the words he said were very harsh. “The aunties in the village used to praise me like this. After all, children of poor families shoulder their family’s responsibilities early.”
Xiao Yuanshi remained silent.
He retracted his previous thoughts. His younger son had also been led astray.
Was this mocking him for not caring about his family?
He did not know how to respond either.
He could only keep his expression unchanged and remain angry.
He picked up a brush and paper and started writing.
Mother Xiao added, “Remember to write down the time. Start repairing it in the next few days. The reason is to compensate for your guilt. Write it down then it will be completed within three months.”
Otherwise, after three months, the scumbag man would go to the northern border.
If they did not continue repairing it, who would they look for?
Xiao Yuanshi thought to himself, this woman was becoming more and more difficult to fool.
He did not say anything, but he still wrote down Mother Xiao’s request.
After all, he had already agreed.
There was no need to refute such a small matter.
Shi Qingluo looked at their scumbag father’s face that was almost turning green. She really wanted to laugh.
He deserved it. He was the one who had delivered himself to her doorstep to be dealt with.
After all, he only knew how to scheme all day long.
After their scumbag father finished writing, Xiao Erlang took the paper from his hand and handed it to his mother.
Mother Xiao took it and looked at it. She said with disdain, “Your handwriting is really ugly.”
Then, she looked at Xiao Yuanshi and said earnestly, “Although you are a general in the military, I heard that you are also a confucian general of some sort. It just so happens that you have recently lost your position andare reflecting on your mistakes at home. It’s better for you to practice your handwriting while you are at home.”
Xiao Yuanshi was speechless.
He wanted to flip the table and leave.
These words were not only harmful, but they were extremely insulting. He could not bear it.
He asked with a fake smile, “Yuelan, can you understand what I am writing?”
What he meant was, you are a woman who does not know how to read and write. Don’t spout nonsense here.
How could Mother Xiao not understand what he meant? She took the initiative to stand up and walk over.
“When I married you in the past, I had endless work to do all day. I had to serve your entire family and take care of the children. I didn’t have the time to learn how to write.
“But after I divorced you, my son and daughter-in-law were filial and even let me manage a workshop. They didn’t allow me to do any rough work, so I also learned how to read and practiced it every day.
“I’ll write a copy of what you wrote just now and see who has a better handwriting.”
She had heard from her daughter-in-law that enriching oneself with more knowledge could broaden one’s horizons. Therefore, she was very serious when her son and daughter-in-law taught her how to read.
She would practice writing at least two hours a day.
Therefore, she wanted to let Xiao Yuanshi take a look at it now.
She had been dragged down by this scumbag.
After saying that, she walked to the table, picked up a brush, and began to copy what Xiao Yuanshi wrote.
The table was right in front of Xiao Yuanshi, so he could see everything clearly when Mother Xiao lowered her head to write.
He could also smell the faint fragrance on her body, which was very pleasant to smell.
The way she wrote seriously gave people a feeling of being wrapped in clouds, which made him unable to help but fall into a trance.
Soon, Mother Xiao finished writing the paper and handed it directly to Xiao Yuanshi. “Take a look and see if it’s not worse than what a senior general like you wrote.”
It means that I, a village woman, wrote better than you.
As a general, are you ashamed?
