Chapter 47: They had no choice but stay onboard, so embarrassing
?
Old Lady Xiao and the others were baffled. “What else should I tell you?”
Shi Qingluo looked furious. “Don’t you want me to help you come up with ideas in the future so that we can stay in the capital forever?”
Old Lady Xiao was speechless. “We would like to. But in the future, we won’t be in the same place anymore. How are you going to come up with ideas?”
This wretched girl looked annoying, but her brain was actually very useful.
Shi Qingluo rolled her eyes at her. “We can write letters!”
“I heard that both your eldest and second grandson went to school. Although they aren’t that academically inclined and are far from my husband’s standards, they should be able to write letters, right?”
Eldest Grandson Xiao and Second Grandson Xiao were speechless.
It was just writing letters, why did she have to compare them with Xiao Hanzheng?
Eldest Grandson Xiao coughed dryly. “It won’t be a problem to write letters.”
They had also been to school for several years and had dropped out because they really couldn’t secure a place in schools, so they still knew how to write most of the words.
Shi Qingluo looked at him with a not-to-bad glance. “You look like a smart person.”
Eldest Grandson Xiao was stunned by her praise and then puffed out his chest. “It’s okay.”
At least this wretched girl had good taste.
Xiao Hanzheng looked at his proud appearance and did not know what to say.
For his little wife to suddenly praise someone, she definitely had a motive!
She was nice to people she cared about, but to the troublemakers, she would definitely scam them.
This fellow was still so happy that he had been sold by his little wife, he probably had to help her count her money too.
He was too stupid and Xiao Hanzheng couldn’t bear to look at her.
Sure enough, Shi Qingluo beckoned to Eldest Grandson Xiao.
“Come over, I’ll teach you how to write a letter.”
Eldest Grandson Xiao was speechless. “I know how to write a letter, why do I need you to teach me?”
Shi Qingluo rolled her eyes at him. “Do you still want to go to the capital and find a good job? What about marrying a wife in the capital?”
Eldest Grandson Xiao thought for a moment.
Hence, he couldn’t help but move the chair near Shi Qingluo and sit down.
“If anything happens in the general’s residence in the future, you can secretly write a letter to your ex-cousin through the courier station.”
She pointed at Xiao Hanzheng as she spoke. “Then he will pass it to me. I will help you guys come up with an idea after I finish reading it.”
Old Lady Xiao frowned. “If you are coming up with the ideas, why do my grandson have to let you know what happened in the general’s residence?”
She wasn’t stupid.
This wretched girl was probably trying to find out about the happenings in the general’s residence.
Shi Qingluo did not try to hide it. “Because I want to know what happened in the general’s residence!
“Moreover, only by knowing that can I infer the recent situation of your son and daughter-in-law, then I can help you guys gain a firm foothold.
“Otherwise, how are you going to deal with the two of them? Don’t tell me that you guys still want to return to the village and continue to suffer?”
Old Lady Xiao and the others remained silent.
What Shi Qingluo said made sense. Indeed, they didn’t want to.
Shi Qingluo added, “I’m also doing this to help you. Otherwise, isn’t it troublesome to send letters? I still have to pay for the ink, paper, and money to send letters to the courier station. We are the ones who are at a disadvantage.
“Old Lady, you are so smart. Don’t tell me you don’t understand my good intentions?”
Eldest Grandson Xiao uttered under his breath, she just praised him for being smart. This woman was really fickle.
Old Lady Xiao really didn’t understand. Why did that wretched girl have been kind enough to put herself at a disadvantage just to help them?
She didn’t seem like a person who would make a loss.
Old Lady Xiao was confused again.
But she still managed to pull out a smile. “Of course, I understand.”
Otherwise, wouldn’t she be the one that wasn’t smart.
“Then I’ll let my eldest grandson write a letter to Zheng’er. You will write back and give us some advice.”
She said meaningfully, “If we can gain a firm foothold in the capital, it will also benefit all of you.
“We can also persuade my second son to bring all of you into the capital. We can also get Zheng’er a better teacher so that he can become a high scholar in the future.” For f*ck.
Shi Qingluo had a sincere look on her face. “Then, thank you so much, ex-grandma.” How was that possible?
She continued, “With our current relationship, as long as you have any questions, feel free to write a letter and ask.
“My husband and I will definitely come up with the best idea for you to control the general’s residence tightly.”
Then, she changed the topic. “However, you must not let the general and that woman know about this. Otherwise, we will ban you from communicating with us and cut off your escape route.
“Then, they will also find an excuse to send you back to the village so that you won’t even have a place to cry.
“After all, those two are very smart and very scheming. If no one helps you to come up with ideas, you won’t be able to defeat them even if all of you unite together.”
Old Lady Xiao and the rest wondered who was the one who had just praised them for being smart.
Even though these words weren’t pleasant to hear, it was still the truth.
In the past, Second Son Xiao was the most scheming person at home.
Now, with that shameless little hoof, if no one helps them, they really might not be able to win.
Cough cough, they were fooled by Xinghong in the past.
Old Lady Xiao glanced at Old Master Xiao and saw his subtle nod.
Only then did she say to Shi Qingluo, “Alright, let’s exchange letters. We will definitely not let those two know about this matter.”
Under Shi Qingluo’s subtle influence, Old Lady Xiao and the others subconsciously felt that when their interests were involved, Shi Qingluo was more reliable than Second Son Xiao.
Shi Qingluo smiled brightly. “That’s right. We’re on the same boat. It’s better to help each other.”
She then asked Eldest Grandson Xiao, “You’re so smart, so you should know how to write a letter?”
Eldest Grandson Xiao patted his chest, gesturing that she could leave the matter to him. “I know. I’ll write to tell you everything that happened in the general’s residence.”
Shi Qingluo reminded him, “Also, you can write to tell us about your second uncle and that woman’s habits and social interactions with the outside world.
“You need to have a pair of observant eyes. The more you observe and discover, the more ideas I can give you.”
As the Chinese saying goes, only by knowing yourself and your enemy, then can you win every battle.
Not only did she packaged these troublemakers to that woman as gifts, but she also wanted to develop them into her own spies.
After a pause, she said with a meaningful provocation, “After going to the capital, you can’t let that woman’s son, your younger half brother, steal your good career and reputation. After all, you are the senior general’s biological nephew.
“As the eldest grandson of the old Xiao family, you can’t be inferior to that half-younger brother. So, are you able to carefully observe and write me letters?”
Eldest Grandson Xiao remembered that his biological uncle didn’t bring them to the capital and didn’t arrange any work for them.
Instead, he brought that woman’s son back to his residence and raised him.
He even found a good posting.
Eldest Grandson Xiao was filled with anger, and even more resentful towards that new second aunt.
He snorted. “Of course I can do it. Just wait for my letters.”
Shi Qingluo gave him a thumbs up. “I think highly of you. You’re definitely better than that woman’s son.”
Eldest Grandson Xiao said smugly, “Of course.”
He was definitely better than that son of a b * tch who was an orphan.
Shi Qingluo succeeded in coaxing Eldest Grandson Xiao on board, and her smile became even brighter.
She looked at Old Lady Xiao, who was in charge, “Then let’s keep in touch. When you arrive in the capital, you can start writing a letter. Only then will I be able to help you with your plans.”
Old Lady Xiao waved her hand. “Got it. You can go back now.”
The wretched girl’s bright smile was too eye-catching.
They knew that she was scheming against them, but they had no choice but stay onboard.
This felt a little too embarrassing.
So before they left, they didn’t want to see this wretched girl again.
