After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 113: So Angry Till He Vomited Blood

Ge Chunru's face turned pale again. They were getting into another trouble.

Soon, the court chief brought his men to search Ge Chunyi's courtyard.

At the same time, they called Old Lady Xiao and the others over.

They were furious seeing boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and valuable items being moved out from this little bastard's courtyard.

They were even more certain that Ge Chunru was going to embezzle the general's estate and property for her younger brother.

Shi Qingluo hit the bullseye again.

This woman was going to turn the general's estate into the Ge family.

They wouldn't believe in Second Son Xiao's stupidity.

The old lady immediately pretended to be shocked. "Why are these items found in my daughter-in-law's younger brother's yard?"

The court chief swept his gaze over the general's wife, whose face was pale.

Ge Chunyi was embarrassed and at a loss.

He smiled meaningfully. "We're not sure about that though."

"General Xiao, Lady Xiao, do you want to explain?

"Otherwise, we'll arrest Ge Chunyi and bring him to justice."

Ge Chunyi immediately refuted, "I didn't do it. I didn't steal these things."

Indeed, he didn't.

When he said this, Xiao Yuanshi's face darkened.

This little fellow was actually so timid.

If he replied like this, then who else could have done this?

He did not expect that he was really an ingrate.

All his years of training had gone to waste.

Ge Chunru was filled with grief and indignation, but she had no choice but to step forward. "I put it there.

"Previously, my mother-in-law wanted to be the lady of the house. I was afraid that they had just arrived in the capital and did not know some rules.

"They might accidentally damage the imperial gifts, so I asked someone to move them to my brother's courtyard.

"I originally planned to wait for my mother-in-law to familiarize me with being the lady of the house before having someone move it back to the storeroom.

"I just didn't expect her to think that the items in the storeroom were stolen without asking me.

"She ran to the capital's magistrate to report it to the police, so this was a complete misunderstanding."

She was really involved in this.

Since the servants had confessed, she had no choice but to admit it.

The key was that if she didn't, would Xiao Yuanshi admit it?

Then there would definitely be a barrier between them as husband and wife.

It would be disadvantageous for him, who was an official, and would also implicate her younger brother.

She could not let her younger brother bear the crime of theft.

It was best for her to stand up and admit it.

However, her reputation had also been ruined.

She really wished that she could eat the old lady and the others.
