Chapter 260: Took the consequences into account

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Xiao Yuanshi returned to the general’s residence and stayed in the study room until afternoon.

Only then did he go to Ge Chunru’s courtyard for dinner together.

Because of Tao Liu and Ge Chunying’s advice, Ge Chunru treated Xiao Yuanshi even more gently.

Her eyes were filled with love as she looked at Xiao Yuanshi. “General, I personally made the dishes for you today. Please try them.”

She reached out to pour him another glass of wine.

She deliberately let him see the back of her hand that was splattered red with oil.

However, Xiao Yuanshi was a man that was direct in his speech to begin with.

At this moment, his mind was not on coaxing women, so he did not pay attention to it.

This made Ge Chunru feel a little uncomfortable.

Xiao Yuanshi tasted it once and realized that his wife’s culinary skill was far inferior to Tao Liu.

He wondered: he did not know why she had to go through so much effort to make such a terrible dish, yet she still insisted on making it herself.

Wasn’t this making things difficult for him?

Ge Chunru did not know what he was thinking.

Otherwise, she would have been extremely furious.

Xiao Yuanshi casually ate a few mouthfuls to brush her off.

Then, he pulled Ge Chunru into his arms. “Not bad. Chunru, you’re thoughtful.”

Ge Chunru was held in his arms. Only then did she reveal a smile. “I’m your wife. It’s my duty to take care of you.”

So Tao Liu wasn’t much.

Xiao Yuanshi really didn’t want to force himself, so he pulled Ge Chunru to talk and stopped eating.

Soon, the second prince’s question was brought up.

Ge Chunru’s heart was aching.

At that time, Shi Qingluo just had a good master.

Now, even the second prince was in a hurry to rope her in.

She thought for a moment and asked, “Then why don’t we start with Baili?”

Xiao Erlang was too young.

Xiao Yuanshi asked, “How do we start?”

He emphasized, “No matter what, Baili is my biological daughter. I only hope that through her, I can help the second prince rope in Zheng’er and his wife, so I can’t do anything to hurt her.

“Chunying will enter the second prince’s residence soon.

“If we can help her with this matter, it will be helpful to her.”

Ge Chunru did not like Xiao Baoli.

It would be good enough if she did not take the initiative to deal with her.

However, when she heard Xiao Yuanshi’s last words, she thought deeply.

“I am your wife and Baoli is your daughter.

“Naturally, I will also treat her as my daughter. I will definitely not hurt her.”

Then, she came up with an idea and whispered in Xiao Yuanshi’s ear.

Xiao Yuanshi pondered for a moment. “This is not a bad idea.”

Ge Chunru smiled and poked his chest. “If you and the second prince are not worried, I’ll do it.”

If this was successful, the second prince would value her sister more.

Xiao Yuanshi wanted her to say, “Of course I’m not worried about you. There won’t be any problems with the second prince.

“Don’t worry about it.”

He emphasized again, “Don’t do anything that will hurt them.”

His wife said it nicely, but he knew that she didn’t like his children.

That was why he broke off his kinship for her in the past.

This time, he wanted to rope in the eldest son and his wife.

Naturally, he couldn’t let his wife do anything that would harm his children.

Regardless of whether this was done by Ge Chunru or not, he would be able to provide an explanation to the second prince.

If this was successful, the second prince would remember his favor.

If this wasn’t, it would be because his wife was incompetent.

Moreover, if he did anything that upset his eldest son and his wife, it was also his wife’s doing and had nothing to do with him.

In any case, his wife and his eldest son’s family already had a deep grudge against each other, so it did not matter if it worsened a little more.

Xiao Yuanshi was calculative in every step he took, including the consequences into account.

Ge Chunru thought that her husband trusted her and that it was to help her sister, so she hugged him and said, “Don’t worry.”

For the sake of her sister, Xiao Baili had benefited unintendedly.

However, as long as her plan was successful, Xiao Baili might not be able to live well in the future.

She said, “General, my sister is going to the second prince’s residence soon. In order to let her have a strong foothold, I have prepared more dowries for her.”

Xiao Yuanshi smiled. “As long as you’re happy.”

He had already seen the dowry list of what he had prepared for Ge Chunru.

Although he was unhappy, he endured it because of the second prince.

Ge Chunru took the opportunity to ask, “Then, can I also use the hot spring manor in the suburbs of the capital as her dowry?”

Ever since Shi Qingluo had asked the emperor for the hot spring manor, and Xi Rui and a few other dandies had also inquired about buying the hot spring manor, prices of these manors in the capital had risen again recently.

Since the emperor had given Shi Qingluo a hot spring manor, she would give her younger sister one as well.

When Xiao Yuanshi heard this, he could not help but feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

The words of the old lady could not help but ring in his mind, “Your wife wants to turn the general’s manor into a manor for her brother and sister. She will only be happy if her siblings receive full financial support from the general’s manor.”

He frowned and said, “Didn’t she already have a manor in the suburbs of the capital as her dowry? Why does she need another one?”

The price of the hot spring manor was high now, and it was still rising.

He was dumb enough to include it in his sister-in-law’s dowry.

Moreover, it was only for a sister-in-law, and he wasn’t marrying off his daughter, yet he was actually spending so much money.

This made him feel a little dissatisfied with his wife.

Ge Chunru was also unhappy.

What was wrong with giving her sister an extra hot spring manor?

She said, “I’m also trying to let Chunying enter the second prince’s residence with more glory. I can also let the second prince go to the manor with her to soak in the hot spring to nurture their relationship.”

Xiao Yuanshi did not indulge her this time. “I am still using that hot spring manor. Forget it.”

He could not help but knock her on the head. “Chunru, our family’s foundation is not solid to begin with. After giving your younger brother so much money and your younger sister so much dowry, there’s not much left in our house.

“I didn’t give anything to my eldest son when he got married.

“As their brother-in-law, I have been caring a lot for your younger brother and sister.”

He said meaningfully, “I hope you can consider our family more.”

Ge Chunru’s displeasure deepened.

There was no one else in their family.

So what if she gave more to her younger brother and sister?

Could it be that Xiao Yuanshi wanted to use it to compensate Xiao Hanzheng and his younger siblings?

In his dreams. She would not allow it.

Moreover, whether she could have a child in the future was a problem.

Her brother and sister were her greatest pillar of support.

She did not want to let the children of other b * tches to gain an advantage.

However, when she saw Xiao Yuanshi’s displeasure, she recalled that after buying her sister’s dowry, the money in the general’s residence had indeed shrunk by a lot.

She did not dare to step on Xiao Yuanshi’s bottom line. “Alright then, that hot spring manor will not accompany her dowry.”

However, her attitude toward Xiao Yuanshi had also become much colder. “General, are you still resting at my place tonight?”

In the past, as long as she was like this, Xiao Yuanshi would take the initiative to coax her and then stay in her courtyard.

Xiao Yuanshi used to find it interesting when she lost her temper and was willing to coax her.

However, compared to Liu Ru’s gentleness and thoughtfulness, he felt that his wife was becoming more and more capricious.

After all, she had given away so much money and things, and he had yet to lose his temper, but she had already thrown him a tantrum.

He let go of Ge Chunru and stood up. “I still have official business to attend to. I have to go to the study room now, so I won’t rest here.”

Then, without waiting for her to say anything else, he stood up and left.

Ge Chunru was dumbfounded.

This bastard actually left without coaxing her.

She could not help but overturned all the dishes on the table.

Not long after, she heard the servant girl saying that Xiao Yuanshi did not go to the study room at all, but went to Tao Liu’s courtyard.

She could not help but throw herself onto the bed and cry.

Her heart was filled with so much hatred that she decided to do what Xiao Yuanshi had said earlier, so that the second prince would value her sister more.

When her sister had a firm foothold in the second prince’s residence, let’s see how she would deal with this slut, Tao Liu.
