Ge Chunru was displeased that Xiao Yuanshi wanted to take in a concubine and touch Tao Liu so soon.
After causing a ruckus in the yard, she pretended to be sick and asked Xiao Yuanshi to come over.
Xiao Yuanshi looked at his beloved wife's pale face and haggard appearance, and he could not help but feel sorry for her.
Just as he got up and walked over to hug her, ready to comfort her and think about how to make up for it, his mother suddenly came in with her daughters-in-law.
Xiao Yuanshi immediately let go of Ge Chunru and returned to his seat.
Ge Chunru thought to herself, this damn old lady must be here to get rid of her.
The moment the old lady entered the door, she looked directly at Ge Chunru. "Tsk tsk, look at her pale face. Is she really sick?"
Mdm Wu covered her smile with a handkerchief. "Mother, her face is probably too pale."
Ge Chunru was about to speak when the old lady suddenly walked up to her and stretched out her hand to wipe her face forcefully.
She then spread her fingers.
Indeed, there was a layer of powder on them. "Aiya, there's really too much powder."
Ge Chunru's body stiffened and she could not help but look at Xiao Yuanshi.
As expected, when she saw that his face had turned black, she wanted to settle the score with Old Lady Xiao and Mdm Wu.
She explained, "Because I am sick and don't look good, I put on some powder."
Old Lady Xiao sneered. "Ptui, do you think I'm an idiot?
"You don't look well. Shouldn't you be applying rouge? Why are you applying powder?"
She turned to Xiao Yuanshi and applied some eye ointment. "My son, she's treating you like an idiot."
Yesterday, she had asked her eldest son to secretly look for Shi Qingluo and her husband.
She had obtained some methods to deal with this little hoof.
Indeed, just as Shi Qingluo had said, she would probably pretend to be sick to deceive her son.
If Shi Qingluo had not reminded them, they would not have known that their faces were so pale because of the powder.
Ge Chunru was about to cry and hurriedly explained, "No, I didn't."
Xiao Yuanshi could not help but feel irritated again.
He glanced at Ge Chunru and asked the old lady, "Mother, what brings you here?"
He had not expected Ge Chunru to use powder to deceive him that she was sick.
This made him very unhappy.
She was getting more outrageous.
Old Lady Xiao sat down. "I just came to tell you guys.
"I asked your eldest brother, third brother, eldest nephew, and second nephew to find their friends to help send letters."
She looked at the two of them meaningfully. "If we encounter robbers or bandits on our way to the northern border, it will be your doing.
"They will help to send the letter to the capital magistrate and the Xi residence.
"I believe that Xi Rui will be very happy to help us investigate."
These words shocked Xiao Yuanshi and Ge Chunru.
