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

111-112

Chapter 111: This was truly amazing

Just like that, under Xiao Yuanshi's coaxing, the old Xiao family decided to follow them back to the general's manor.

Xiao Yuanshi revealed a refined smile to the people who were watching the show.

He portrayed himself as a confucian general.

"Just now, there was a small conflict at home. I apologise for letting all of you witness this embarrassment."

The obvious meaning was that there wasn't any big problem with my family, so don't spread it around.

The others also smiled.

On the surface, they didn't say anything, but in their hearts, they didn't think so.

It was rare to have such a lively scene in the entire capital.

Of course, they had to go home and share it with their friends and relatives.

Before Old Lady Xiao left, she even pulled her new friend, the old lady next door, to say a few words.

She deliberately emphasised that she was going to invite that old lady to go to the textile shop tomorrow.

Shi Qingluo said that when they came to the capital, they should try their best not to be locked up in the general's manor.

They had to make some friends who shared the same interests or had similar statuses.

The old lady staying opposite them was also from the village and had a lot in common with her.

Moreover, this old lady was warm-hearted.

If his second son, that beast, wanted to restrict her from going out, she would definitely help to spread the word.

When Xiao Yuanshi heard this, he was extremely frustrated, but he could not utter his thoughts to stop her.

That old lady sympathised with his mother and felt that her daughter-in-law was too unfilial.

Her son did not seem to be reliable either.

She held Old Lady Xiao's hand and said, "Alright, let's go for a stroll tomorrow. If you have any matters, you can let your daughters-in-law or grandsons come and call me."

It was rare for her to meet someone who also came from a village that she could chat with.

She did not wish Old Lady Xiao to return to the village.

Old Lady Xiao smiled and said, "Alright!"

After saying that, she followed Xiao Yuanshi and Old Lady Xiao back to the general's manor.

As soon as they sat down, before Xiao Yuanshi could say anything, Old Lady Xiao pulled him and started crying.

"My son, I also didn't want to go out and make a scene today and let everyone know about it. But your wife and her younger brother are really bullying us too much."

After that, she exaggerated and recounted how Ge Chunyi did not respect her and beat up her eldest son and the others.

Ge Chunyi could not help but retort, "You guys slapped my sister. Clearly, you all bullied her."

Old Lady Xiao looked at him with her triangular eyes and said to Xiao Yuanshi, "Look, I only said one sentence and he already started to talk back. I'm the mother who gave birth to you and raised you. Who does he think he is? He's living in the general's manor as a young master. You even helped to send him to an academy to hone his martial arts. If he can be so arrogant and disrespectful to your mother now, will he still acknowledge you as his brother-in-law when he becomes successful in the future? Some people are ingrates. Don't sway through pillow talk and end up not knowing what your family name is."
