Xiao's mother didn't know what Xiao Yuanshi was thinking at the moment, otherwise she would have pooh-poohed him like the old lady did.
"Xiao Yuanshi, what do you want to do by bringing us here?"
Mother Xiao picked up the golden hairpin in her hand and pointed at him, "You don't want to kill me to silence me, do you?"
Xiao Yuanshi: “…” This woman is really capable of this.
He was a fool to let someone lead them here and then show up in person to kill them and silence them.
He looked helpless and said, "I just heard that you were nearby, so I wanted to meet you."
He was in a bad mood these days, and Ge Chunru often came to stop him.
The emperor only told him to reflect at home, but did not confine him to his home.
So he ran to the hot spring resort at home to find some peace and quiet.
During lunch, he heard his personal attendant report that Xiao Hanzheng and his family were also coming to the nearby hot spring resort.
He didn't care at first, but the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't swallow the fact that he was demoted.
So he wanted to take revenge.
It is naturally unrealistic to directly attack Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo, otherwise the emperor will not forgive him.
He also remembered that day when Kong Yuelan slapped him in the face, and deliberately revealed his and Ge Chunru's identities and scolded him.
He felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart.
So he couldn't help it and came up with a malicious idea of revenge.
If Kong Yuelan could take the initiative to become the general's concubine in the mansion, he could restore the father-son relationship with Xiao Hanzheng.
Once this level of relationship is established, you can also use filial piety to control the other person.
And didn't Kong Yuelan beat and scold him? She looked like she despised him so much.
What would others think if he let her come back to him?
All I can say is that Kong Yuelan treated him like that because she turned love into hate.
Now you should just go back to him and be his concubine.
Aren’t Xiao Hanzheng and his companions very happy to be separated from him?
Then they were forced to come back and see if they could laugh again.
Therefore, he found a piece of clothing with a similar color to the one he wore when he first met Kong Yuelan.
He also bribed the servant of Shi Qingluo Hot Spring Villa and brought the person here.
He was waiting here, just wanting Kong Yuelan to fall in love with him again.
And I always believed that Kong Yuelan must have him in her heart.
Xiao's mother no longer loved Xiao Yuanshi in her heart, and she almost didn't even have any hatred left, only disgust.
Now hearing him say that, and the other party still smiling so gently, he looked dazed for a moment.
It was as if she saw the first time she met Xiao Yuanshi. He had such a gentle and handsome smile that made her fall in love with him at first sight.
After meeting him twice more, I found that he didn't look like a country boy at all. Instead, he looked like a handsome and elegant scholar.
He was very gentle and considerate to her, and even carved a wooden hairpin for her.
That's why she tried her best to convince her parents to marry him.
But in the end, that was the result.
Mother Xiao quickly came back to her senses and did not fall into Xiao Yuanshi's tenderness. Instead, she became more cautious.
She said bluntly: "You have seen us, can you send us away now?"
Obviously he doesn't trust Xiao Yuanshi.
This made Xiao Yuanshi stunned and very surprised.
Kong Yuelan was so defensive towards him. She used to trust him so much, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
So he changed his strategy and looked at Xiao Baili with some kindness.
"I haven't seen you for a while. Bai Li has grown into a big girl."
The eldest son was too shrewd and had a lot of resentment towards him, so it was difficult to repair the relationship between father and son.
Ge Chunru was unable to give birth to a child, so he attached great importance to the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children.
So in his heart he could let Tao Liu give birth to a child, but he hoped to train a legitimate son to inherit the general's mansion.
Erlang is still young, so it would be a good choice if he is separated from Xiao Hanzheng and his wife and brought up by their side.
The key is to maintain a brotherly relationship with Xiao Hanzheng's eldest son, so that Xiao Hanzheng and his wife will stop targeting the general's mansion.
Kill several birds with one stone.
Xiao Baili doesn't have a very deep impression of her father.
When she was young, her father went out to fight in the war, and when he came back, he was not close to her and her siblings.
He also forced her mother to divorce and cut off ties with them.
My sister-in-law always calls her biological father a scumbag, so she follows suit.
She will never forget how her scumbag father broke off the relationship with them for a mistress, how the Xiao family drove them to the old house, how her brother was in a coma, and how she was almost forced to go to the Wu family to marry and be buried with him. Those were extremely difficult days.
So she was not at all used to her scumbag father suddenly being so kind to her.
Under Shi Qingluo's frequent teaching, Xiao Baili has learned to think independently and is quite vigilant.
She now had only one feeling: the weasel had no good intention in paying a New Year's visit to the chicken.
She held Mother Xiao's hand, pursed her lips and looked at her scumbag father, "We haven't met a few times in total, you don't have to be so familiar."
"Besides, we broke off our relationship a long time ago, so whether I grow up to be a big girl or not has nothing to do with you."
Xiao Yuanshi: "..." Where did his weak and docile daughter go? Whether it was Kong Yuelan or Xiao Baili, they were very different from what he remembered.
He must have been led astray by that bad daughter-in-law, otherwise how could this happen?
He suppressed his displeasure and continued with a gentle and loving smile, "I was indeed wrong in the past."
"I originally proposed to break up the engagement because I was angry that your elder brother didn't come back to Beijing with me, so I just mentioned it casually."
"Who would have thought he would agree to it?"
"So even though I've severed my ties with you, in my heart, you'll always be my biological children."
He added with guilt: "I have thought a lot during this period, and the more I think about it, the more I feel sorry for you brothers and sisters, so now I just want to make it up to you."
Xiao's mother didn't expect that Xiao Yuanshi would actually lower himself to say such words.
The key is that he wants to snatch the child from her.
"Bullshit compensation, you don't have any good intentions."
"Xiao Yuanshi, don't be so shameless. If you dare to snatch my child, I will fight you."
She glared at him and said, "I will go to the government office and sue you."
Xiao Yuanshi looked at his ex-wife who was becoming more and more unrestrained and would glare and curse at people, and was somewhat surprised that he didn't hate her at all.
"I don't want to snatch the children from you. I just feel that I was wrong before and want to make it up to them."
He looked helpless again, "Don't get me wrong."
Xiao Baili held onto Xiao's mother and raised her eyebrows at Xiao Yuanshi, "Do you really want to compensate us siblings?"
When Xiao Yuanshi saw her appearance, he was delighted and thought there was a chance.
He knew that children all expected the care and love of their biological father.
He nodded and said, "Of course."
He did not immediately suggest that his daughter move back to the general's mansion as soon as he arrived, as that would have seemed too purposeful.
And Xiao Hanzheng wouldn’t be accurate either.
So he wanted to boil the frog in warm water, step by step, so that Kong Yuelan and her daughter could repair their relationship with him, and then he would offer to take them home to live with him.
Xiao Baili curled her lips and said, "Okay, then you can first give us a few tens of thousands of taels of silver as compensation."
As long as her scumbag father dares to give it, she will dare to take it.
