Seeing Xiao Yuanshi’s attitude, the old master was slightly satisfied.

“Second Son Xiao, we are your parents. We won’t harm you.

“Your daughter-in-law has a mean and indifferent look on her face.

“She can even jinx father and mother to death. Think about it carefully.

“After marrying her, have things become more and more difficult for you?

!!
“You used to be an ordinary peasant in the village. After you met Mdm Kong, not only did you learn martial arts and have a smart son, but you also made many contributions on the battlefield and were finally conferred the title of a senior general.

“However, ever since you divorced Mdm Kong and married Mdm Ge, you broke off your relationship with your promising son.

“Mdm Ge caused trouble and lost two of your children and caused you to break off your relationship with your legitimate children.

“So what if you can have another illegitimate son?

“In the future when your illegitimate son inherits your family business, outsiders will laugh at your family.

“After that, your reputation in the capital will be completely ruined and laughed at by others behind your back. Even your position in the capital, which you had a hard time getting back after returning to the capital, will be ruined because of your relationship with your niece.

“The money and items you earned from the battlefield were mostly used by Mdm Ge to finance her younger brother and sister.

“Your official career has continuously been going downhill.”

“It’s not that your mother is angry and scolding you. It’s just that your wife is really a jinx.”

He sighed and said, “Second Son Xiao, you should marry a virtuous wife!

“Look at Zheng’er. After he married Mdm Shi, not only did he wake up from his coma, his life is getting better and better. He even became the first top scholar in the entire Daliang country to clinch the first place in three exams.

“Although he is only a county magistrate now, even I, a village man, know that he is valued by the emperor and has a promising future.

“You’ve married a jinx. In the future, there’s an 80 – 90% chance that you won’t be as good as Zheng’er.”

This wasn’t the old master’s provocation, but rather his heartfelt words.

He didn’t think so before, but when he heard Shi Qingluo and the old woman saying that Ge Chunru was a jinx, he felt that it was indeed the case.

Ever since this daughter-in-law entered the family, she had been a troublemaker.

She had ruined the bright future of his second son.

Although he had returned to the northern border as a deputy governor, from Shi Qingluo’s words, it was similar to being banished.

It would be many times more difficult to return to the capital and reach the epicenter for power.

Second Son Xiao was also his son, so how could he not wish for his son to become better?

When his son didn’t listen to him and insisted on cutting ties with his grandson, he felt that Mdm Ge was not good.

However, his son liked her very much and was afraid that they would comment too much.

Second Son Xiao took her back to the capital after putting her name on the genealogy.

From the looks of it now, she was indeed not a good person.

Previously, the old lady and Shi Qingluo had emphasized that Ge Chunru was a jinx and had bad facial features.

Xiao Yuanshi was a little hesitant.

After hearing his father’s sincere words, his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat.

It seemed to be true.

After marrying Mdm Kong, his life at home was better than before.

He had avoided several life-threatening situations on the battlefield.

He was also very lucky to make contributions time and time again, and he slowly climbed up to the position of general.

His sworn brother was more unlucky.

His wife suddenly fell into the river when she went out and was washed away by the river, while his sworn brother died on the battlefield.

He had investigated Ge Chunyi’s broken leg and found that it wasn’t Xi Rui’s doing.

No matter how he investigated the matter and judged it, the root cause of this was an argument between them.

Could it be that Ge Chunru’s life was really filled with bad luck, so she jinxed the Ge family and things started to go wrong after he married her?

After all, if it wasn’t for Ge Chunru, he wouldn’t have cut off ties with his own children, and Xiao Hanzheng and his wife wouldn’t have been watching him all day.
