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

219-220

Chapter 219: Relationship exposed

Old Lady Xiao's heart skipped a beat when she saw her son's expression.

She couldn't let her son give up on the idea of bringing her back to the manor.

She immediately put her hands on her hips and said, "Ptui, you are a vicious woman. Her name is clearly Liu Ru. You must have made up Tao Liu, right? And you seemed to know the brothels very well. You came from there right? That's why everyone looks the same to you."

Ge Chunru was quite insulted. "Old lady, I respect you as my mother-in-law, but you can't humiliate me like this."

Old Lady Xiao sneered. "You're a mistress, yet you deliberately miscarried and framed my son's first wife. You are always talking about the brothel. How clean could you be? How am I humiliating you? What I said is the truth."

"You, you..." Ge Chunru was so angry that her eyes turned black and she felt dizzy.

Xiao Yuanshi's face turned even greener. "Mother, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Why couldn't her mother keep her mouth shut? She actually said something like this.

He hadn't uttered a single word the whole time.

Old Lady Xiao glared at him. "What nonsense am I talking about? You divorced your first wife and broke off your kinship with your biological children because of her. Is this fake?

"What's there to hide? It's not your fault. She forced you to do it." 

She said righteously, "If I don't say it out loud today and she causes more troubles in the future, won't everyone eventually know too? It'll be even more embarrassing then."

She had been hinting to her son that she was doing this for him.

That's right, it was all for her son.

This was also something Shi Qingluo had taught her.

When she found it difficult to make her decision, she had to keep reminding herself why she was doing this.

As expected, she no longer felt guilty since it was for her son's wellbeing.

At this moment, Xiao Yuanshi also wanted to faint.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Let's return to the general's residence now."

Suddenly, someone at the door asked, "The general's wife mentioned Xiao Hanzheng. Is he the husband of the wife who offered the seeds?"

Eldest Grandson Xiao happened to be standing at the door watching the show.

He could not help but interject, "That's right, that's Xiao Hanzheng."

Xiao Yuanshi thought to himself, the old Xiao family must have deliberately come to harm him.

"What? It's really Xiao Hanzheng."

"Their surnames are all Xiao."

"Could it be that Xiao Hanzheng is the son of General Xiao who cut off his ties with them?"

Eldest Grandson Xiao interjected again, "Yes, that's right."

At this moment, Xiao Yuanshi only wanted to shut up his nephew.

However, if he shouted in front of the crowd, he would appear to be guilty.

"They are a good pair of son and daughter-in-law, but General Xiao actually broke off his kinship with them for the sake of an outsider. This is really..." He did not know what to say.

"It seems that General Xiao loves freshness!"

"His wife is really amazing. Not only did she deliberately miscarry so that his first wife was demoted, but she also forced the general to break off his kinship with such a promising son. She is indeed not ordinary."
