"General, my sister is pregnant with the second prince's child and is in urgent need of money, so I sent someone to deliver it first."

"If she can give birth to a son in the future, maybe he will have a chance to become the crown prince."

This means that her sister’s identity is different now.

"Let's help Chunyi more now. If she wins over the Second Prince in the future, it will be beneficial to you."

Xiao Yuanshi pushed Ge Chunru away when she was about to hug him.

He was really furious this time.

His face turned pale and he couldn't help but yelled, "Ge Chunru, don't you know what mistake you made?"

Ge Chunru was shocked when she was pushed away. "I know I was wrong. If I want to give money to Chunyi in the future, I will tell you in advance."

This time she concealed it on purpose, otherwise Xiao Yuanshi would never allow her to give 40,000 taels.

Xiao Yuanshi laughed angrily, "Do you want to have another time?"

"Ge Chunru, you keep using the family's money to subsidize your younger brothers and sisters. I won't even mention this for now."

"How could you secretly accept the 50,000 taels of silver sent by Prince Jin's Mansion? And you didn't even tell me." This was what made him most angry.

Ge Chunru was somewhat puzzled. "Since the Jin Palace sent us a gift of money for our housewarming, why don't we accept it?"

When she came to northern Xinjiang, she was worried about how to raise money for her sister.

Who knew that the concubine of Prince Jin's Mansion would send silver over, and she happily accepted it.

Xiao Yuanshi found out that he was really wrong. He had always thought that Ge Chunru was a smart and intelligent woman.

Now it seems that all her intelligence and cleverness have been used in devious ways.

If Kong encountered this situation, she would definitely be shocked and would immediately come to him with the box of silver bills.

If it were the daughter-in-law Shi Qingluo, she would definitely return it on the spot.

But Ge Chunru is so petty that he dares to accept any money.

Xiao Yuanshi asked coldly, "Do you mean that you will accept all gifts from anyone in the future?"

Ge Chunru originally wanted to say, since it was delivered, why not accept it? I'm already a deputy governor, what's the point of not taking the opportunity to make some money? But seeing Xiao Yuanshi's angry look, she hurriedly said, "Not all of them."

She reached out to pull Xiao Yuanshi's sleeve, and said in a coquettish manner, "Don't be angry. From now on, if anyone gives me a gift or money, I will ask you first before accepting it, okay?"

Xiao Yuanshi couldn't help but shake her hand away, "Ge Chunru, I never thought you would become so greedy, stupid, and petty now."

"Or maybe she disguised herself too well, and her true nature gradually revealed itself after she became the first wife."

Ge Chunru's eyes widened. "How dare you say that to me?"

Xiao Yuanshi snorted coldly, "Originally my parents forced me to divorce you, but I didn't agree."

"They threatened to exterminate my clan and asked me to demote you to a concubine, saying that you would harm the Vice Governor's Office and me."

“I didn’t believe it before, but I do now.”

Could it be that Shi Qingluo could really read faces? Ge Chunru really wanted to harm him or others just because he was rich.

Ge Chunru looked incredulous. "What did you say? I harmed you and the Deputy Governor's Office? How did I harm you? You are my husband!"

Xiao Yuanshi found that Ge Chunru was really stupid and still didn't know what the biggest mistake she had made was.

"I am the deputy governor of North City sent by the emperor, so I cannot be involved in any conflict of interest with Prince Jin."

"You suddenly accepted 50,000 taels of silver from Prince Jin's Mansion. Then Prince Jin can say that you bribed me and asked me to do something."

"What do you think I should do?"

"If I help Prince Jin, the emperor will never forgive me."

"But if I don't help Prince Jin, and I accept 50,000 taels of silver from him, this will be a living handle in his hands."

His face turned red. "Tell me, you are not harming me, who are you harming?"

If they had not been together for so long, he would have suspected that Ge Chunru was sent by the enemy to deliberately frame him.

He came to contain Prince Jin, not to join Prince Jin.

At this moment, Xiao Yuanshi suddenly believed that Ge Chunru was really a jinx.

Ge Chunru didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns in this.

At that time, I only thought that even Prince Jin was giving money to Xiao Yuanshi, which meant that this deputy governor held a very high position.

Moreover, she was worried about money, and the gift from the other party really touched her heart, so she naturally accepted the money.

"General, I, I didn't know it would be like this."

"I didn't mean to do that. I didn't know it would be this serious."

"I was wrong, don't be angry."

She hastily suggested, "Then let's quickly return the fifty thousand taels of silver."

No wonder Xiao Yuanshi was so furious. It was the first time she saw him so angry.

But she really didn't know it would be so serious.

He hadn't told her this when he first came to North City! Xiao Yuanshi and Ge Chunru had been together for so many years that he could tell what she was thinking at a glance, and he was even more furious.

He had once indulged her so much that she completely forgot her own identity.

Xiao Yuanshi looked at her and said, "Send it back, where's the money?"

"This is fifty thousand taels, not fifty taels."

"Can you come up with fifty thousand taels now?"

What she said was simple: return 50,000 taels.

She gave all the money to Ge Chunyi, what can she give back?

You just want him to pay for you again.

But he really doesn't have that much money now.

Ge Chunru said with a guilty conscience: "I, I only have less than 10,000 taels of silver in my hand."

Xiao Yuanshi raised his eyebrows, "Then you ask Ge Chunyi to return the money, and I will make up the rest."

This is of course impossible, it is just a final test on Ge Chunru.

Ge Chunru bit her lip and said, "I've already given it away, how can I get it back?"

"General, don't you always want to support the Second Prince? If you treat Chunyi well now, she will be able to help you speak well of him in the future."

"If we have any problems in the Northern Frontier in the future, we can write to her and ask her to ask the Second Prince for help."

"She is pregnant now. The women in the Second Prince's mansion have always been jealous and have teamed up to bully her. She has no money to rely on, so her life is very difficult."

"I also hope that she can keep the child and help the general in the future."

This is the only way to impress Xiao Yuanshi now.

Xiao Yuanshi's heart suddenly felt a chill.

Unexpectedly, even though he had just exposed the matter in such a serious manner, Ge Chunru was still thinking about her sister.

She didn't even ask him if he could come up with more than 40,000 taels to fill the hole.

Or maybe you could ask yourself whether it would have any impact on him even if you return it.

At this moment, Xiao Yuanshi's last bit of affection for Ge Chunru was completely gone.

He is indeed not a good man. He actually owes a lot to his parents, his original wife and his children, especially his wife and children.

He had let many people down in his life, but the only person he had never let down was Ge Chunru.

Is this how she repays him? (End of chapter)
