Xiao Yuanshi suddenly felt discouraged, and his whole body was filled with a sense of dejection.
"Ge Chunru, in your heart, are your brothers and sisters the most important?"
Ge Chunru watched the anger on Xiao Yuanshi's face disappear, but instead of feeling relieved, she felt even more flustered.
She quickly replied: "No, you are the most important to me."
In her heart, Xiao Yuanshi is important, but her younger brothers and sisters are equally important.
But I couldn't tell him.
Xiao Yuanshi sneered, "You are really full of lies."
"It has come to this, and all you are thinking about is how your sister can live a better life in the Second Prince's Mansion."
"But why don't you think about whether I can live a better life in North City?"
"What will be the consequences if you do this?"
Ge Chunru was even more panicked, "I, I don't understand these either."
"I just, I just believe you can handle it."
In her heart, Xiao Yuanshi is powerful and he can handle anything that happens.
No matter what she did, he would help her.
That's why she wasn't that worried.
Xiao Yuanshi took a deep breath and said, "You mean, you want me to pay back the fifty thousand taels of silver?"
Ge Chunru was flustered, her eyes reddened, "I can't take it out now."
"You pay back the fifty thousand first. When Chunyi gives birth to the Second Prince's son and has a firm foothold in the Second Prince's mansion, I will ask her to return the money, okay?"
At that time, Xiao Yuanshi probably wouldn't be short of this little money.
Moreover, if his sister could gain a firm foothold, she would be able to completely win over the Second Prince. How could Xiao Yuanshi have the nerve to ask her for money again?
If he really forced her to pay, she would ask her sister to borrow it.
Xiao Yuanshi closed his eyes, then opened them and said, "It's too late. If you had told me on the same day, I would have sent someone to send the silver back. It would still be in time."
"But now, let alone paying back 50,000 taels, even paying back 100,000 taels is useless."
"If you give someone a gift to get something done, after a while, will they assume that you agree?"
"You returned it after such a long time. What are you doing? Are you trying to fool them?"
"If the emperor finds out, he will blame me, and I will also offend Prince Jin. How can I survive in Beicheng?"
Ge Chunru was stunned. "How could this happen?"
She never thought that just accepting 50,000 taels of silver would become such a serious matter.
Xiao Yuanshi raised his hand and rubbed his brow, "So you are stupid."
"If you continue to be in charge of the Vice Governor's Office, it will be over sooner or later."
"I will inform everyone in the Vice Governor's Office that you and Liu Ru will swap roles from today on."
Ge Chunru's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean by swapping my and Liu Ru's identities? Explain it clearly."
If Ge Chunru had behaved like this in the past, Xiao Yuanshi would have felt distressed or soft-hearted.
But now he was still angry. "From today on, Liu Rushi is the wife of the Deputy Governor's Office, and you are my concubine. Do you understand now?"
Ge Chunru's face was filled with dullness. "You actually want to demote my wife to a concubine?"
"How could you do this to me?"
Xiao Yuanshi said with a sullen face: "Why can't I? You forced me to do this."
"I have been telling you not to plot against Zheng'er and his siblings, but you didn't listen and insisted on causing trouble. In the end, you ended up with me being cuckolded and everyone in Beijing knows about it."
"I told you not to go to the mine, but you insisted on going, and then you went to Heyang County to cause trouble. In the end, you gave so many handles to the people of the Old Xiao family and Shi Qingluo."
"Tell me yourself, is it you who has done this?"
If it weren't for these things, even if Ge Chunru couldn't give birth to a legitimate son, he would never have thought of demoting his wife to a concubine.
Ge Chunru was so angry that she raised her hand and pointed at him tremblingly, "You, you actually want me to be your concubine, Xiao Yuanshi, you are not a human being."
"You said you would love and treat me well for the rest of my life, you liar."
Xiao Yuanshi sneered: "You said you would be my good wife and mother, but have you done it?"
"After I am demoted to a concubine, I will still protect you. At least you won't have to go out and live in the wind and rain."
Ge Chunru was so angry that he was about to go crazy. He couldn't help but pounce on Xiao Yuanshi and scratched him.
"Xiao Yuanshi, you are such a heartless person. I hate you so much."
"How dare you say this? Don't think I don't know how you plotted to get my brother to the mine."
"I hate you. I hate you so much."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuanshi couldn't help but push her down with force, "It's your brother again."
"You only have your brother and sister in your heart. Since you care about them so much, why don't you go and live with them."
He was so cold-hearted. After doing so much, in Ge Chunru's heart, her two ungrateful brothers and sisters were not as important.
Ge Chunru was pushed to the ground, and she sat there crying, saying, "Xiao Yuanshi, you are not a human being. You have gone too far."
"I don't want to be demoted to a concubine. I don't want that."
Xiao Yuanshi looked at her coldly, "This is not up to you."
He felt a little guilty about demoting Ge Chunru to a concubine.
But after knowing that Ge Chunru accepted 50,000 taels of silver from Prince Jin's Mansion and used most of the money to subsidize her younger sister from her natal family, all this guilt disappeared.
He couldn't afford such a spendthrift woman.
When Ge Chunru saw Xiao Yuanshi's appearance, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
It turned out that he was serious and he actually wanted to demote his wife to a concubine.
There was no point in making a fuss; she became even more flustered.
So she couldn't help but give in and hugged Xiao Yuanshi's legs, "General, I was wrong. I will never accept gifts from others again. I don't want to be a concubine."
She almost succeeded in having Kong demote his wife to a concubine. If this happened to her, she didn't know how Kong and others would laugh at her behind her back. It was such a shame.
And she doesn't want to be outdone by that bitch Tao Liu, she wants to be the wife of the deputy governor.
Xiao Yuanshi shook his head, "It's too late."
Seeing that Xiao Yuanshi refused to listen to her soft and hard words, Ge Chunru looked at him fiercely and cried, "Xiao Yuanshi, I don't want to be a concubine. I will never admit this identity."
After Xiao Yuanshi calmed down, he no longer cared about his past feelings.
"Since you don't want to be my concubine, I will give you a letter of divorce. You can take your brothers and sisters and leave the Vice Governor's Mansion."
He won't change his mind this time.
He said coldly: "Either you become my concubine, or you accept my divorce letter. There is no third way. You make your choice."
Ge Chunru looked at him in disbelief. Just for fifty thousand taels of silver, he treated her like this.
She really wanted to say in a tough tone, "Just divorce, who's afraid of who?"
But her younger sister hasn't given birth to a son yet, and she has to guard against being assassinated by the women in the backyard. If she is divorced, it will be a drag on her younger sister.
My younger brother can hardly protect himself. Without the protection of the Deputy Governor's Office, it is unrealistic for him to live a good life.
She didn't have any skills, and she didn't know how to do business. If she left the Vice Governor's Office, how would she survive? It was even more impossible for her to have no worries about food and clothing like she did now, and to have an enviable status when she went out.
