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

Chapter 177: Your Wife Is Even More Wasteful Than Me

When they returned home, Shi Qingluo grabbed Xiao Baili in the kitchen.

As Xiao Baili was still single, Liang Youxiao and Xi Rui could only hold back their temptation to join in.

Xi Rong did not have such scruples and immediately joined in.

Liang Youxiao and Xi Rui's faces were filled with envy.

Fei Yuzhe looked at the two of them and felt that they were really too stupid.

He did not know the two of them.

Shi Qingluo took the corn grains from the corn cobs and ground them into pulp.

Because she wanted everyone to taste the corn, she didn't add anything else.

It just so happened that their house still had pork ribs, so she even stewed the corn with it.

Before dinner was ready, Mo Qingling and Mr Hou came to the Xiao family in a carriage.

Mo Qingling had already received the emperor's letter, but after seeing these people, he still had a headache.

Only Shi Qingluo could handle them.

Otherwise, if they were to go to the county, who knew what would happen.

"Brother Ling!" Liang Youxiao, Xi Rui, Fei Yuzhe, and Xi Rong greeted Mo Qingling one after another.

No matter what, Mo Qingling was once part of the capital's dandies.

Although he had suddenly become more ambitious and had taken more effort to improve himself further, the dandies still treated him as his peers.

Mo Qingling's cold face revealed a smile. "The few of you are really bold to sneakily come to Nanxi county. This even alarmed the emperor."

Liang Youxiao immediately threw the blame. "Xi Rui insisted on running away from home. I was afraid that he would be in danger if he came alone, so I accompanied him.

"Xi Rong has nothing to do with us. She insisted on running away from home with Xi Rui."

Xi Rui thought to himself, this bastard purposely sold his friends out.

Xi Rong also glared at Liang Youxiao. "Do you know how to talk?"

It was as if she had taken a liking to Xi Rui and wanted to stick around.

For a person like Xi Rui, she wouldn't even want him if he was a gift to her.

Besides, they were still cousins.

She was more than a year older than Xi Rui.

Mo Qingling did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Alright, sit down.

"If the corn plantation is successful, both of you will follow me back to the capital."

He placed a lot of importance on the corn.

If it was true, then as the county magistrate of Nanxi county, he naturally had to tag along Xiao Hanzheng and his wife to the capital to offer the seeds.

He didn't want to claim credit, but this was his duty.

He also hoped that it was true that the heaven-bestowed seeds would not only reveal the falsehoods of the recent rumors against the emperor, but it would also be a blessing for the people in Daliang.

Liang Youxiao and the others didn't refuse. "Alright!"

As the first group of eyewitnesses to such a matter, they also had to follow him back to the capital.
