Chapter 346: Don’t cause her to be disgusted
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At that time, Ge Chunru had no choice but to tell her sister about Shi Qingluo’s threat.
She received 20,000 taels of silver from her sister.
After that, she listened to her complaints.
In the second prince’s residence, she was often bullied by other women, and her heart ached terribly.
At the same time, she promised her sister that when she went to the northern border, she would coax Xiao Yuanshi and get back her authority as the lady of the house.
After that, she would get someone to send back the 20,000 taels of silver.
She was still thinking of secretly giving her sister more money when the time was right.
Originally, Ge Chunru was against going to the northern border.
However, her brother’s status was still unknown, and her sister was also waiting for money.
In addition, her reputation in the capital had been completely destroyed, so she was actually looking forward to going to the northern border.
After all, ever since he returned to the capital, Xiao Yuanshi did not earn much.
He only had the shops and the manor he bought earlier to maintain his expenses.
Otherwise, just his salary alone would not be enough.
However, it was different when he went to the northern border.
He had a lot of extra income, and he was also richer.
All the money and things that his family had accumulated previously were brought back from the northern border.
However, although she had a grudge in her heart, she did not show it to Xiao Yuanshi.
Just like what her sister said, making a fuss with Xiao Yuanshi would only push him away and let that slut Tao Liu take advantage of him.
Seeing the gentle and obedient Ge Chunru, Xiao Yuanshi heaved a sigh of relief.
It was fine as long as she did not make a fuss.

He also revealed a smile on his face. “I was too busy previously, that’s why I did not come to see you. You won’t blame me, right?”
Ge Chunru rolled her eyes in her heart.
She would not believe this fellow’s nonsense.
Even though she was grounded, she did not know that this b * stard, other than working in the study, often went to that little b * tch’s courtyard.
She took the initiative to get up and walk over. “You’re so busy. My heart aches for you so much, why would I blame you?”
After her previous lesson, Ge Chunru learnt to be obedient.
She was gentle and considerate, like when they had just met.
Xiao Yuanshi smiled. “I know that you are the most empathetic one, Chunru.”
Ge Chunru revealed a smile that Xiao Yuanshi used to like the most and asked, “General, do you have something to say today?”
If this was in the past, Xiao Yuanshi would definitely say that why couldn’t he come to her courtyard if he had nothing to do?
He would naturally say that he missed her.
But now, for some reason, he couldn’t say it out loud.
Too bad, if any other man wore a green hat, would they not have a thorn in his heart?
“Today, the emperor appointed me as the deputy governor of the northern city. From today onwards, I will head to the northern border.
“So, I want to inform you to prepare well in the next few days. We will set off for the northern border five days later.”
If this happened before he wore a green hat, Xiao Yuanshi would definitely take the initiative to hug Ge Chunru’s shoulder.
However, he did not do so this time.
He walked to the stone bench that Ge Chunru was sitting on in the courtyard and sat down.
Ge Chunru pursed her lips and naturally noticed the change in Xiao Yuanshi.
She hated him so much in her heart, but it was mainly because of Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo.
If it were not for the two of them scheming against her, Xiao Yuanshi would not have treated her like this.
Her reputation would not have been ruined in the entire capital.
She walked back and sat beside Xiao Yuanshi.
She didn’t lean on him as she usually did.
Ge Chunru smiled magnanimously and said, “Since Liu Ru is now the lady of the house, let her make the arrangements.”
She was deliberately retreating in advance.
After all, she knew Xiao Yuanshi very well.
If he had wanted Tao Liu to do this from the start, he wouldn’t have come to inform her.
Of course, she wanted to do this.
When she reached the northern border, she could arrange other matters and used this opportunity to not hand over her power as the lady of the house.
Xiao Yuanshi smiled and said, “Liu Ru is pregnant, so she can’t do this anymore. So, I have to trouble you, Chunru.”
Ge Chunru, who had been scheming in her heart, suddenly raised her head when she heard this.
She looked at Xiao Yuanshi in disbelief. “What did you say? Liu Ru is pregnant?”
The entire general’s residence was under Xiao Yuanshi’s control.
In addition, he had grounded Ge Chunru, so she would not know anything that he did not want her to know.
Seeing her looking with disbelief, Xiao Yuanshi did not feel guilty.
He nodded and said, “That’s right. It’s already been around five months.”
There was nothing he could do when Liu Ru became pregnant.
It was Ge Chunru’s fault for not keep her two children.
It would be even harder for her to get pregnant in the future.
It also seemed difficult for Hanzheng and his siblings to re-recognize their relationship.
He could not possibly have no descendants.
Ge Chunru’s eyes turned red.
She wanted to pounce over and scratch Xiao Yuanshi’s face a few times.
He had actually made that b * tch Tao Liu pregnant.
The point was that it had already been about five months.
He only told her when they were about to go to the northern border.
Even if she did not want to believe it, she could not lie to herself that he did not trust her.
He was afraid that she would lay a hand on Tao Liu, so he did not let the news of Tao Liu’s pregnancy reach her ears.
No wonder he had to ground her.
There was actually such a secret.
After about five months, the fetus would already be stable. Damn it!
However, she forcefully endured it and said something that went against her heart, “Then, then congratulations, general.
“Our general’s residence is finally going to have a child.”
However, even though the fetus was stable after five months, whether or not she would be able to give birth in the end was still two different things.
Or perhaps it did not matter if she gave birth to one.
A little bastard without a mother might not be able to live long.
She touched her belly.
When she thought that it would be difficult for her to have a biological child in this lifetime, her heart ached terribly.
Xiao Yuanshi saw that her eyes were red and thought that she was going to cry again.
He didn’t expect that she would say such a thing.
His tone couldn’t help but soften a little. “My child is also your child. I originally wanted to wait for the child to be born and bring it to your side to be raised.”
Ge Chunru could not give birth.
If Liu Ru gave birth to a son, he could record it under her name and raised him as a legitimate son.
Ge Chunru really wanted to be like Old Lady Xiao and spit on Xiao Yuanshi’s face.
She did not like the child that little slut gave birth to.
Even she felt disgusted listening to it.
How could she raise it? Don’t cause her to be disgusted.
She would rather have the child of her stepbrother than raise the child of Xiao Yuanshi’s other women.
However, she would not say it on the surface.
She was touched. “General, you are so kind. I will definitely treat this child well.”
Xiao Yuanshi thought that Ge Chunru did not have a child and wanted a child in her heart, so he was touched.
It was rare for him to take the initiative to shake Ge Chunru’s hand. “Chunru, you are my wife. Of course, I will treat you well.”
The two of them spoke for a while in a rare calm manner.
Ge Chunru took the opportunity to say, “General, I don’t know when I’ll be able to return from this trip to the northern border. Can I go and say goodbye to my sister tomorrow?”
Xiao Yuanshi didn’t think too much about it.
He was going to leave anyway, so he wouldn’t go so far as to not agree to Ge Chunru going to say goodbye.
Besides, he might still have some use for Ge Chunying in the future, so there was no need to shed all pretense of cordiality for the time being.
He said, “Of course. I’ll get someone to send you there tomorrow.”
He was afraid that Ge Chunru would cause more trouble before she left the capital, so it was better for his people to escort her to and from the capital.
He would be more at ease.
Ge Chunru sneered in her heart, but she held his hand instead. “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
