Ever since Xiao Yuanshi and Ge Chunru met, it was the first time that he had been so angry at her.

Ge Chunru had secretly used up the 20,000 taels of silver that he had taken out from his private room after the old lady and the others had gone to the northern border.

This was meant to sustain the expenses at the general's residence.

But he really didn't expect that Ge Chunru would spend so much in such a short period of time.

The key was that every month, she still received a few thousand taels of silver from the villages, the fields, and the shops.

Originally, all these alone were enough to cover the expenses of the general's residence with some leftovers.

But she used it to finance her own younger brother and sister's expenses.

Tao Liu didn't expect Ge Chunru to be so bold as to almost empty out the money of the general's residence.

Her heart ached terribly.

After all, she had always believed that the general's estate would belong to her and her future child.

Thus, she looked at Ge Chunru in disbelief. "Madam, how could you do this?"

"The general's estate's assets were all exchanged for his life at the battlefield.

"Our residence was originally just a new aristocratic residence in the capital. Our foundation is already weaker than those aristocratic families.

"If you empty the general's mansion and give the money to your family, the next time there's a huge expenditure in the future and the general can't finance it, what will his colleagues in the imperial court think of him?

"I really envy you, Madam, for actually meeting such a good general.

"Even after you did such a thing, he still tolerated you.

"If you were another family's daughter-in-law, they would have divorced you long ago.

"I'm very glad that I met the general. He's so nice, yet you're still so angry at him. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

Ge Chunru saw that Xiao Yuanshi was already angry, but that b * tch Tao Liu was deliberately adding fuel to the fire.

She could not help but growl with a sullen face, "Shut up."

Xiao Yuanshi had already heard Tao Liu's words.

He asked with a sullen face, "Ge Chunru, what exactly do you want?"

Ge Chunru hurriedly cried and wanted to pull him back.

"It won't happen again in the future. Don't be angry."

Tao Liu said from the side, "In the future, the general's residence won't have the money to finance all these."

With a worried expression, she supported Xiao Yuanshi and said, "General, I still have quite a few pieces of jewelry.

"You can pawn them all to give those servants in the residence their salaries.

"Otherwise, if they go out and say that the general's manor is withholding their salaries, or that you can't even afford to do so, I'm afraid that your colleagues will gossip about you behind your back."
