He ordered, "You can follow him after a while."
Even if these people from my hometown are released outside, they still need to be kept under surveillance both inside and outside.
We must especially prevent them from getting involved with that evil-minded daughter-in-law again.
The woman thought about it and couldn't help asking, "What about my brother?"
At this time, Ge Chunru said, "Your brother has been arranged to be the manager of my shop. You can go and have a look before you leave."
She was the one who found this woman.
What she values is that the two siblings depend on each other, and the younger brother is the woman's weak spot and easy to control.
The key point is that in order to make a living, this woman was forced to secretly engage in prostitution at home and contracted a contagious disease.
She hated those people in the old house.
Since they ruined his brother's future, Xiao Dalang will never have children again in this life, let alone get married in the future. He will never have any descendants.
The woman heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this, "Yes, I will follow them."
She had contracted an unclean disease and would not live long, so she only hoped to help her brother gain a foothold before she died.
At this moment, another confidant of Xiao Yuanshi walked in.
Xiao Yuanshi waved his hand at the woman, "You can go down."
The woman immediately backed out.
The confidant stepped forward respectfully and reported, "Master, we have found out."
"The cement recipe was indeed provided by your son through the young master of the Mo family."
Xiao Yuanshi had been very upset by the top-notch people in the old house before, and he didn't pay much attention to some things in the court.
I heard by chance not long ago that the emperor now attaches great importance to it and has ordered a large workshop to produce cement, which was donated by a small county.
He didn't care at first, but when he heard it was Nanxi County, he asked carefully.
It was only then that they learned that the person who offered the prescription was a scholar named Xiao, and the emperor rewarded him with a mountain.
He had a feeling that this Xiao Xiucai was his eldest son, but he did not ask any further questions for fear that others would notice something was wrong.
So they sent people to Nanxi County to investigate.
This happened before he discovered that the man from the old house was having an affair with Xiao Hanzheng's wife, which is why his confidant has returned now.
He asked curiously, "How did he get the cement recipe?"
The confidant replied: "This was brought out by his new wife."
Then he told the story about how Shi Qingluo was the old immortal's apprentice and what he had done.
Xiao Yuanshi was stunned, obviously not expecting that the evil-minded daughter-in-law had such abilities.
As for the old immortal, he didn't believe in him.
Of course, he had no doubt that Shi Qingluo had learned something from the old Taoist priest.
After all, what could a village girl know.
He frowned slightly, "What about Zheng'er's current situation?"
He had previously focused all his energy on dealing with people in his hometown, and had not paid any attention to his eldest son recently.
The confidant said truthfully: "The eldest son was spotted by Lord Hou, who was visiting relatives in Nanxi County and had nothing to do, so he went to the county school to attend a few classes and took the initiative to accept him as a student."
"He is also very close to Mr. Mo from the Mo family who went to Nanxi County to serve as the county magistrate."
He paused, and then told the new information he had found out, "And recently, Fei Yuzhe from the Fei family brought his nephew and Liang Youxiao from the Liang family to stay at their house temporarily."
Xiao Yuanshi was shocked. "Why would they stay at Zheng'er's house temporarily?"
It had only been a short time since he paid attention to the affairs of Nanxi County. How come things had changed so much? What he didn't expect was that his son was actually accepted as a student by the retired first-rank official.
Although that person has retired, he still has considerable influence in the court, and the other three students all hold important positions.
The timing of retirement is very good and it also has favor with the emperor.
And how did his son end up hooking up with the young master of the Mo family?
Not only does that person have a strong background, but he is also becoming more and more powerful.
This time he suddenly went to Nanxi County to serve as the county magistrate, and everyone felt that it was not that simple.
The confidant replied, "I found out that they were going to seek treatment from the eldest son."
"Puff!" Xiao Yuanshi couldn't help but spit out the tea he had just drunk.
"What? Treat illnesses?" He was puzzled. "When did Zheng'er learn how to treat illnesses? Isn't this nonsense?"
The confidant replied, "The eldest son was once taken as an apprentice by the famous doctor in Daliang, and has been secretly teaching medical skills."
"Fei Yuzhe went to ask a miracle doctor to treat his nephew, but found out that the miracle doctor had passed away. Then he discovered that the eldest son was the successor of the miracle doctor."
"So I took my nephew to the Xiao family for treatment."
Xiao Yuanshi's face was shocked again, "When did Zheng'er become the disciple of the divine doctor?"
Why didn't he know anything about this? Fei Yuzhe of the Fei family was not a nobleman who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun. Since he personally took his nephew to Xiaxi Village, it meant that this must be true.
The confidant replied: "This cannot be found. He must have secretly accepted disciples and taught them."
Xiao Yuanshi found that many things were out of his control.
He even cursed those people in his hometown in his heart. If it weren't for them, he wouldn't be so passive.
After Xiao Hanzheng presented the ice-making and cement recipes, they must have left an impression on the emperor.
He stroked the teacup and suddenly considered whether he should bring his son back to the capital to raise him.
Ge Chunru kept her hands tightly clenched in her sleeves.
She didn't expect that just because she hadn't kept an eye on Xiaxixi Village for a while, that bastard would cause so many troubles.
Xian Fang, and making friends with Mo Qingling and others, this is definitely what she doesn't want to see.
Especially after her brother's future was ruined, she didn't want Xiao Hanzheng to rise.
She was filled with hatred, and when she looked up she saw Xiao Yuanshi thinking, and her heart skipped a beat.
Naturally, she knows the man she loves very well.
Is this the intention of bringing Xiao Hanzheng to the capital for training? No, absolutely not.
So she pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I don't know if Han Zheng knew about Shi Qingluo instigating the people from the old house to come to the capital to make trouble."
He sighed again, "Hey, I don't know if he still hates us in his heart."
Xiao Yuanshi was stunned for a moment, "He must know."
But he immediately dismissed the idea in his mind.
Although that was his son, they had already severed ties and separated from each other, so he should have hatred towards him, or at least resentment towards him.
You can't control or suppress the other person by using filial piety.
If we bring it back to the capital to train it, it might backfire if we're not careful.
In this case, it is better to nip the bud in the bud.
He was actually hesitant. After all, Xiao Hanzheng's appearance would reveal things in his past that he didn't want to mention.
Demoting a wife to a concubine or divorce will also be known.
He might be attacked and accused of having no feelings for his father-in-law because he relied on his father-in-law to get promoted but wanted a divorce. This was what he most feared and hated being mentioned.
People in the village once said that his current situation was inseparable from Kong’s father. If he had not learned martial arts from the other party and received his care, he would still be a peasant now.
This made him very unhappy and hard to accept, as he had relied solely on himself to get to where he was today.
