Chapter 313: I've misjudged you

Xiao Baili and Xiao Erlang were eating roasted mutton in the courtyard.

Xiao Yuanshi's face turned even darker when he smelled the fragrance of the meat the moment he entered.

He had to give a sincere apology to others.

These two evil creatures sure knew how to enjoy themselves.

Xiao Baili and Xiao Erlang even took the initiative to greet him with a smile when they saw Xiao Yuanshi rushing in angrily.

"General Xiao is here. Do you want to eat?"

Xiao Yuanshi uttered under his breath, eat my ass.

With a dark face, he asked, "Erlang, how many times did you get into trouble today?"

Xiao Erlang had an innocent look on his face. "I didn't get into trouble!"

Xiao Yuanshi sneered. "Just now, the people from the county palace came looking for you. You went to beat up their family members, and I had to apologize on your behalf."

Xiao Erlang asked in puzzlement, "Why did you apologize? He was clearly the one who did something wrong. You, a senior general, actually submitted to their evil forces."

Xiao Yuanshi was speechless.

He was about to die from anger.

"You don't feel that you're at fault?"

Xiao Erlang nodded. "Yes, I'm not at fault at all."

"That person is not a good person. A few days ago, he took a fancy to the wife of a scholar and tried to strike up a conversation with her and was scolded. He could not swallow his anger, so he forced the scholar and his wife to become servants in their manor. One has to lend a helping hand when one sees injustice. Since I have met them, of course, I can not ignore them. The general's manor is not inferior to the county palace's manor. Why are you afraid of them?"

He looked at Xiao Yuanshi with a disappointed face. "You are actually such a senior general. Where is courage from killing the enemy back then? It was clearly someone from their family who did something wrong, yet you actually went to apologize. How did your spine bend so quickly?"

He listened to his sister-in-law's instructions to stir up trouble and then mentioned that "my ex-father was Senior General Xiao."

Not to mention, it was quite satisfying.

However, he wasn't fooling around.

Instead, it was really one who would lend a helping hand to someone facing injustice.

Moreover, those people didn't dare to provoke him.

The main reason was that he had sister-in-law's friends backing him, namely the great demoness of the capital, Xi Rong, and the little demon, Xi Rui, to back him up.

Thus, those people shifted the blame to the general's residence and asked his scumbag father to apologize.

He also did not expect his scumbag father to admit defeat so quickly.

Xiao Baili also looked at Xiao Yuanshi with a disapproving expression. "Yes, they were clearly the ones who forcefully bought over the good people, and my little brother did not do anything wrong. Why do you need to apologize? If they want to make a scene, then so be it. At worst, they can make a scene at the emperor's place. His actions are upholding justice. You're actually apologizing and providing compensation gifts. Aren't you ashamed?"

Xiao Yuanshi was completely choked by their words.

These two scoundrels specially went out to cause trouble, yet they were still so righteous and confident.
