Ge Chunru and the others were forcibly taken to the prison.

Old Lady Xiao also hurriedly went to help Old Master Xiao up.

The old master just had a pale face, still not too bad.

She then hurriedly looked at Eldest Grandson Xiao.

At this moment, Eldest Grandson Xiao had already fainted from the pain.

Old Lady Xiao and Mdm Wang were so distressed that they burst into tears.

“My dear Dalang, my poor Dalang!

Shi Qingluo uttered under her breath, the old Xiao family was really not reliable.

He wasn’t dead yet but they were already crying.

She reminded them, “Quickly get someone to invite the doctor to prescribe some medicine for them.”

At this moment, Eldest Grandson Xiao’s buttocks were stained with blood.

Other than the old master, the other men’s buttocks in the old Xiao family were also bleeding, and they were all groaning in pain.

When the old lady heard this, she reacted and got Mdm Wu to immediately get the doctor.

Eldest Grandson Xiao and the others were also brought to the inner room by the yamen people so that it would be convenient for the doctors to treat them and apply medicine.

After the doctor arrived, he applied medicine for the men in old Xiao’s family and before askingsomeone to get more medicine.

When the doctor came out, Old Lady Xiao hurried forward and asked with red and swollen eyes, “Doctor, how is my eldest grandson?

“His injuries aren’t minor, but it’s a good thing these injuries didn’t affect his muscles and bones. He’ll recover after resting for a period of time,” the doctor said.

He then sighed. “If he was hit a few more times, I’m afraid his lower body will be paralyzed.”

When the old lady and the others heard this, their hearts that had been hanging finally relaxed.

While they rejoiced silently, they hated Ge Chunru even more.

That woman had done it on purpose.

She wanted to cripple Eldest Grandson Xiao so that she could avenge her crippled brother.

After checking on her grandson’s condition, Old Lady Xiao went to ask about Old Master Xiao’s well-being.

“Old man, I can’t take this lying down!”

The old lady kept wiping away her tears.

“I’m still slapped by my daughter-in-law despite living till this age.

“How am I supposed to continue living?!

“And you. You’re already so old, but you’re still being pressed down and beaten. My heart hurts.”

When the old lady was young, she was the flower in the village.

Otherwise, Xiao Yuanshi would not have been so handsome.

Therefore, although her personality was not very good, Old Master Xiao really liked her and doted on her for so many years.

When he saw the old lady crying, he thought of the embarrassing experience that he and his partner just had.

He also hated Ge Chunru, his daughter-in-law.

In the past, he was too lazy to manage things, but now, he couldn’t take this lying down.

“That unfilial daughter-in-law can’t possibly be locked up in this prison forever. Second Son Xiao probably won’t just leave her like this,” he said after thinking for a while.

“Ask Zheng’er’s wife for ideas,” he suggested.

He could now see that he would be punished if he went against Xiao Hanzheng and his wife.

Ge Chunru and Eldest Grandson Xiao were good examples.

Xiao Hanzheng, this grandson of his, was a promising one.

If he wanted his other grandsons to have a better future, he would rather follow this grandson who had cut off ties with him than follow his second son.

Although this grandson of his was also cruel and merciless, he was minimally not as cold-hearted as his second son, who was always self-centered.

As long as he didn’t step on Xiao Hanzheng’s bottom line and turned over a new leaf, he would still be able to tolerate his other grandsons.

After all, his other grandsons were not involved in the matters revolving around Second Son Xiao and Ge Chunru.

Only his old wife and his two daughters-in-law were.

From the way hissecond son’s people incited his eldest grandson to send Ge Chunyi to the mine, the old master could tell that his second son was unreliable and more ruthless than anyone else.

Moreover, in the future, he would most likely be dealt with by Xiao Hanzheng and his wife, and it was uncertain if he could still be an official.

Therefore, it was still not too late to abandon the dark and join the light.

It had to be said that Old Master Xiao, who rarely spoke among all the other old Xiao family members, was the smart one.

Old Lady Xiao believed Old Master Xiao’s words.

“Okay, I’ll go and find Zheng’er’s wife now.”

Thus, the old lady stood up and brought her daughters-in-law to the next room to find Shi Qingluo, who was talking to Xi Rui and the others.

Old Lady Xiao forced a kind smile. “Zheng’er’s wife, what do you think we should do? ”

Shi Qingluo pretended not to understand. “What do you mean? ”

The old lady walked over and sat down. “What should we do with Ge Chunru, this unfilial daughter-in-law?

“What if Second Son Xiao uses his authority to ask Zheng’er to release Ge Chunru?”

Shi Qingluo looked at the old lady and asked, “You don’t want to let her go?”

The old lady immediately nodded. “Of course not.”

“Then take your people to Northern City. Go to the deputy governor’s office and demand an explanation from your second son.”

“Just asking for an explanation? ” Old Lady Xiao thought for a moment.

“Isn’t it too easy on Ge Chunru? ”

Shi Qingluo laughed and suggested, “Of course we can’t let her off so easily. In that case, you guys should strike at her sore spot. Let her do what she doesn’t want to do the most.

Old Lady Xiao thought for a while. “Why don’t we ask Second Son Xiao to divorce her? ”

That little b * tch definitely wouldn’t be happy if Second Son Xiao divorced her.

“Hmph, if she can’t be the deputy governor’s wife, let’s see how that little b * tch can be arrogant.”

“General Xiao probably won’t agree to divorce his wife,” Shi Qingluo said.

Once Xiao Yuanshi divorced Ge Chunru, it would mean that he had made the wrong choice.

Moreover, if he divorced his wife the moment he arrived in Northern City, wouldn’t he become a laughingstock in the entire Northern City?

Old Lady Xiao’s face darkened. “That b * stard. If I had known, I would have thrown him into a latrine pit and drowned him.”

He was too unfilial for the sake of a woman.

Shi Qingluo seemed to be in deep thought.

After a moment, she said, “Did you know that Tao Liu is pregnant?”

Old Lady Xiao shook her head. “I really don’t know.

“What does this have to do with teaching Ge Chunru a lesson?”

She wasn’t interested in her second son’s future.

Shi Qingluo suggested, “Ge Chunru can’t have children. Shouldn’t she give up her position as the first wife?

“General Xiao will not divorce his wife, but he can demote his wife to a concubine!

“Ge Chunru was the one who thought of this trick.”

She winked at the old lady. “Use the trick she thought of on herself. I’m sure she’ll be very happy.”

The old lady and the others would probably want to cry.

When Shi Qingluo said this, Old Lady Xiao and the others felt a chill run down their backs.

This girl was indeed black-hearted and vicious.

If this really succeeded, it would definitely cause Ge Chunru’s heart to bleed!

However, they felt that this idea was too good.

Demoting a wife to a concubine.

They would be able to do anything to Ge Chunru in the future if she was demoted to a lowly-ranked concubine.

More importantly, if she became a concubine, this little slut would be humiliated thoroughly.

It was even more impossible for her to give so much money to her sister and brother.

From the high and mighty wife of the general’s wife to a lowly concubine, Ge Chunru might even be thinking of dying.

That little b * tch loved her face the most.

She was so good at destroying others’ soul without killing them.

They couldn’t wait to see the little b * tch’s face after she was demoted to a concubine.

“Then how can I make Second Son Xiao demote his wife to a concubine?” The old lady asked after thinking for a while.

After all, her second son was also quite prideful.

If others knew that he had demoted his wife to a concubine, they would also laugh at him.

There was a high chance that her second son would not agree either.

Shi Qingluo blinked again and smiled. “Didn’t I already give you guys something that can be used against her?”
