If she followed what she was taught in the building, Tao Liu would habitually get out of bed, pretending to be weak-legged and accidentally fall into Xiao Yuanshi's arms.

Just like what he did to Xiao Hanzheng in the village before.

But Shi Qingluo had warned her not to do that before.

She wanted Xiao Yuanshi to always believe that she was forced to be with him.

If something is too easy to get, you won’t cherish it.

Moreover, if he took the initiative to deliver it to his door, it would arouse Xiao Yuanshi's suspicion.

Instead, you should act like, I'm doing this for your own good, I care about you, but I really don't want to ruin the relationship between you and your wife.

Tao Liu resisted the urge to fall into Xiao Yuanshi's arms.

She got down to the ground with her shoes on, walked a few steps on the spot, and smiled at him, "Look, I'm fine."

"If I leave, Madam won't be angry anymore and won't quarrel with you anymore."

She comforted him again: "You don't have to worry about these things anymore."

Xiao Yuanshi watched her pretending to be strong, just to prevent Ge Chunru from making trouble with him again and to relieve him of his worry.

How could such a beautiful woman come from such a dirty place as Ge Chunru mentioned?

Moreover, Liu Ru's every move, smile, and behavior do not seem like that of a prostitute.

Although they do not have the dignity and elegance of girls from aristocratic families, they are indeed as beautiful as girls from the south of the Yangtze River, and they look like they come from good families.

He didn't know that when Tao Liu was being trained in the capital, she specifically learned the soft, whispering accent of Jiangnan women.

Before going to Beijing, Xiao Hanzheng secretly hired someone to teach her how to behave as a merchant lady, and forced her to change some of the habits she had developed in the building.

Plus the new Bai Lian style outfit designed for her by Shi Qingluo.

This made Xiao Yuanshi not trust Ge Chunru so much.

He suddenly looked unhappy and asked, "After you went back, did you commit suicide again?"

Tao Liu's face turned pale, and she lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong. "I, I didn't."

When Xiao Yuanshi saw her like this, he suddenly wanted to reach out and touch her head, but he held back.

He comforted her, "Don't let your imagination run wild. You can live in the general's mansion from now on."

Tao Liu raised her head and looked at him with tearful eyes, "I, I don't want to stay in the general's mansion."

"If I stay, Madam will be angry and quarrel with you. You are so kind, I don't want you to be embarrassed because of me."

"Don't worry, I won't commit suicide this time."

She pretended to be optimistic and said, "At worst, I won't get married in the future."

Xiao Yuanshi's heart was touched again, "No, I have already made it clear to her just now, she has accepted you."

Tao Liu rolled her eyes in her heart. This man was really lying with his eyes open.

With Ge Chunru's personality, how could that be possible?

She pretended to be flattered, "Really? Madam, do you really not blame me?"

Xiao Yuanshi said with a guilty conscience: "Yes, she doesn't blame you anymore."

Tao Liu burst into laughter and said, "That's great. Madam is such a good person."

She suppressed her nausea and said, "You must cherish her."

Xiao Yuanshi's eyes unconsciously showed a little more smile, "Think more about yourself."

You always think about others, how can you be so stupid?

Seeing this, Tao Liu deliberately looked a little confused and said, "But I still want to leave the General's Mansion. If I stay here, it will affect your reputation, General."

"I really just treat you as a friend. As long as the lady doesn't blame you and you two can reconcile, I will feel at ease."

These words gave her goosebumps, but she had to admit that this alternative way of applying eye drops was quite interesting.

Judging from Xiao Yuanshi's expression, he obviously believed her words.

At that time, Qingluo looked like a tough person, who would have thought that these were taught to her by the other party.

I don’t know whether Shi Qingluo will treat Xiao Hanzheng like this.

If Shi Qingluo knew what she was thinking, he would definitely shake his head. She was just teaching Tao Liu the gossip she had seen on the Internet. If she were asked to do it herself, she would not be able to do it.

As expected, Xiao Yuanshi felt relieved. "Don't worry about what happened between me and her. It has nothing to do with you."

"After what happened today, there will definitely be rumors when you go back."

"You can stay in the general's mansion for a while. When the storm has passed, I will send you back."

If you talk about taking a concubine now, Liu Ru will definitely not agree given her personality.

Tao Liu knew how to observe men. As soon as she saw Xiao Yuanshi's appearance, she knew that he was a man who said one thing and thought another.

A smile appeared on his face, "Then I will bother you for a few days."

Then he said considerately: "General, today's events may have an impact on you. I am fine now. You can go and take care of the business and go and comfort the lady."

Contrast this with Ge Chunru's resentment and her crying and saying she didn't want to see him.

Xiao Yuanshi's heart couldn't help but lean towards Liu Ru at this moment, "Okay, then I'll come to see you tomorrow."

He left only after letting her go back and lie down.

After Xiao Yuanshi left, Tao Liu smiled playfully and said to Ge Chunru, "Go ahead and take it."

On the other side, Ge Chunru already knew what happened in Tao Liu's room.

After all, the maids serving in the yard are hers.

After knowing the conversation between the two, Ge Chunru couldn't help but smashed things in the room again, "Bitch, this pretentious bitch."

She didn't believe what Tao Liu said.

And on the surface it was for her own good, but when she couldn't hear it, she realized that it was that bitch who was deliberately trying to flatter her in front of Xiao Yuanshi.

She didn't know that Xiao Yuanshi had walked into the yard again.

I just happened to hear her smashing things and swearing.

At this moment, he couldn't help but frown even deeper. It was obvious that Ge Chunru's current behavior was somewhat subversive of her previous gentle and virtuous image.

But thinking about what he had to do, he still went into the room.

Ge Chunru was about to smash a vase when she heard the maid greet Xiao Yuanshi and immediately put the vase on the table.

He pretended to be weak and sat down.

The main thing was that I didn’t have time to go back to bed.

Xiao Yuanshi walked in and pretended not to see the porcelain pieces on the floor.

"Chunru, are you feeling better?"

Ge Chunru cried softly, "You still care about my health?"

These words made Xiao Yuanshi a little unhappy. When he went to see Liu Ru, he found that she was very sensible.

"You are my wife, of course I care about your health."

He was afraid that Ge Chunru would make trouble again, so he immediately continued: "By the way, I thought of Chunyi's arrangement place."

Ge Chunru, who was about to coax him, was also diverted from the topic, "Where are you going to arrange for him to go?"

She thought Xiao Yuanshi wanted to use his brother's affairs to compensate her.

Xiao Yuanshi didn't look timid at all, "I plan to let Chunyi go to Northern Xinjiang with Dalang and the others."

When they arrived in the northern border, they asked people to instigate Dalang to send people to mine or work with the exiles.

He could then tell the emperor that he wanted to send his brother-in-law to exile in the northern border to suffer a little, and that would give him an explanation.

It can also reduce the resentment that the old lady, Dalang and others have towards him.

Ge Chunru was stunned. "He can't join the army, why does he want to go to Northern Xinjiang? And he wants to go with Xiao Dalang and the others."

Xiao Yuanshi had already thought of an excuse, "It's because I can't join the army, and I will be ridiculed or looked down upon by others in the capital, so I might as well go to the northern border to fight."

"I will put him next to Dalang and keep an eye on him. When Dalang makes a mistake, he can take Dalang's place."

"He'll start as a county magistrate first. I'll try to get my colleagues in Northern Xinjiang to help him gain some merits, and then he can be promoted to county magistrate."

"After he stays in the northern border for two years, I will try to transfer him back to the capital, or send him to a wealthy place to serve as an official."

Ge Chunru didn't think much about it and actually thought her husband was thinking about his younger brother.

Although I feel a little uncomfortable that my younger brother is going to be with Xiao Dalang and others, this is indeed an opportunity.

So he nodded, "Okay."

She took the opportunity to say, "Then I have to prepare more money for him to take with him."

Xiao Yuanshi comforted him: "This is natural."

If anything happens to Ge Chunyi, it will be Xiao Dalang and the Xiao family's fault, and it has nothing to do with him.

He didn't care if I gave him a little more money for his journey.

Now that I have spent the money, the guilt in my heart has disappeared.
