Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

As expected, Xiao Yuanshi’s heart warmed up after hearing Liu Ru’s words.

Liu Ru was the true flower that could ease his heart, and Ge Chunru was just pretending to be one.

When Ge Chunru had taken the initiative to approach and seduce him in the past, she had also said that she was not doing it for his status and that she would not leave him no matter what he became.

Now that she was going to be demoted to a concubine, she still acted like that. She couldn’t let go of her status and power.

If Ge Chunru was another girl, she would have agreed with joy.

He reached out and held Liu Ru’s hand. “It’s not as simple as throwing a tantrum. Ge Chunru has made a big mistake and is becoming more and more muddleheaded. So, she is no longer suitable to be the wife of the deputy governor.”

He thought for a while and told her about how Ge Chunru had received money from King Jin’s residence and given it to Ge Chunying.

It was also to let Liu Ru know how to treat those from King Jin’s manor when she interacted with them in the future and not follow Ge Chunru’s old path.

After hearing this, Tao Liu’s eyes widened and he looked incredulous.

“How could my elder sister do such a thing?

“Wouldn’t that harm you?

“Governor, you’ve been transferred to Northern Xinjiang and you’re stuck between the capital and Northern City. You have to be careful. How could she do this to the governor just to help her sister?

“Wouldn’t this make things difficult for you in the future?”

Then, she held Xiao Yuanshi’s hand with a pained expression.

“Governor, you’re so nice to my sister. How can she repay you like this? ”

She was lost for words and cursed Ge Chunru for being an idiot.

She actually dared to accept such money and even gave it to her younger sister to help her. What was she thinking?

She would also take care of her sister, but she would not use her husband’s things to finance her.

On one hand, it would cause her younger sister to expect more and make her feel that it was only right for her to be financed, and it would ruin their future relationships as sisters.

Secondly, if she were to do so, it would cause her in-laws to break up with her, and the loss would outweigh the gain.

If she were her, she would help, but more importantly, she wanted her sister to stand up on her own so that she could gain a firm foothold in her husband’s family.

Moreover, women had to rely on their husband and biological children in the future.

It was fine for sisters to support each other, but it could not be too excessive.

Ge Chunru kept helping her younger siblings. She didn’t feel like an elder sister, but rather like a mother.

Xiao Yuanshi found that Liu Ru was much more considerate than Ge Chunru.

When such a thing was mentioned, Ge Chunru thought of her sister, but Liu Ru thought of him being caught between the emperor and King Jin.

Her heart ached for him more.

The key was that she was very aware that his current identity was very sensitive at the first moment.

She was indeed more suitable to be the wife of the deputy governor.

“Yeah, I didn’t expect her to become so arrogant. She’s deliberately setting me up.

“She’s no longer suitable to be the wife of the deputy governor. Otherwise, who knows what kind of more embarrassing things she’ll do to me in the future.”

He looked at Liu Ru gently. “There’s a banquet held by the ladies in Northern City. You can attend the banquet as the wife of the deputy governor.

“I believe you won’t let me down.”

Liu Ru was very excited in her heart, but she looked a little uncertain. “Can I really do it? What about my sister? Will she be sad?”

By saying this, she wanted Xiao Yuanshi to know that she would never slander Ge Chunru behind her back.

In fact, she would even “think” and “worry” about her.

In the future, when Ge Chunru targeted her, Xiao Yuanshi would stand by her side.

This was also “serving a cup of green tea” that she had learned from Shi Qingluo.

Xiao Yuanshi laughed. “You’re too kind. don’t worry about her. Even if she becomes a concubine, no one in the deputy governor’s office will treat her badly.

“Ge Chunru, the concubine of this household, is no longer capable. She can only rely on you to support her. Don’t shirk your responsibilities. If you manage the household well, I will be more at ease.”

Tao Liu looked touched by his trust and nodded.

“Alright then. For your sake, I will definitely work hard to manage the family and socialize well with the outside world, governor.”

“There’s a flower banquet in King Jin’s mansion two days later. You’ll represent the deputy governor’s office,” said Xiao Yuanshi.

“By the way, don’t get into a conflict with Shi Qingluo when you get there.

“Try to avoid her.”

Although Shi Qingluo had been targeting Ge Chunru, who knew if she would target Liu Ru as well? So he had to remind her.

When Tao Liu heard his words, she was even more certain of how powerful Shi Qingluo was.

Even Xiao Yuanshi was afraid of Shi Qingluo.

No wonder she could defeat Ge Chunru.

“I don’t have any past conflicts with Shi Qingluo. She shouldn’t be targeting me on purpose.

“But I’ll be careful.”

If Xiao Yuanshi knew that it was all thanks to Shi Qingluo and her husband that she was able to become the first wife, he would probably vomit blood in anger.

Xiao Yuanshi nodded. “Well, as long as you know what you’re doing.

“You’re going to King Jin’s mansion to attend the flower banquet, so your usual clothes and jewelry won’t be sufficient.

“Tomorrow, go to the best silver shop in Northern City and pick out a few pieces of jewelry. Then, I’ll get someone to make you a few sets of clothes that suit your status.”

In the future, Liu Ru would be representing him, the deputy governor, so her attire couldn’t be shabby.

Previously, Liu Ru’s dress was too plain and clean.

Her status as a concubine was okay, but it was lacking if she was his main wife.

Tao Liu smiled and nodded. “Yes, I will listen to you, governor. ”

Although Xiao Yuanshi was not in the mood to be intimate with Liu Ru because of Ge Chunru’s matter, he still rested in her courtyard that night.

He even asked the butler to help Liu Ru move to the main courtyard and Ge Chunru to the side courtyard.

Concubines should be treated like concubines.

If she was treated the same way as a main wife, or even better than a main wife, what would the servants in the residence think?

Not being able to distinguish between wives and concubines, the legitimate and illegitimate children were the source of chaos in a family.

He wanted to put an end to it by targeting its root causes.

After all, he had already made a mistake once, and he couldn’t make the same mistake twice.

Sure enough, when the servants in the house found out, they also understood that Ge Chunru, the former madam, had completely lost Xiao Yuanshi’s favor.

They no longer needed to treat her with respect.

Instead, they had to serve Mdm Liu, who had just become his main wife.

Ge Chunru sent her servant girl to inquire about Xiao Yuanshi’s movements.

When she found out that Xiao Yuanshi had really announced to the entire deputy governor’s mansion that her identity had been swapped with Tao Liu and that he had even gone to rest in Tao Liu’s courtyard tonight, she couldn’t help but burst into tears again.

How did it become like this?

Then, she couldn’t help but hate Shi Qingluo and the Xiao family even more.

If it weren’t for these people forcing and instigating Xiao Yuanshi, how could he treat her like this?

How could she face others after being demoted to a concubine?

She wondered if her sister’s situation in the capital would be affected.

In the future, she would become Concubine Ge and her brother would live in the manor.

She did not know if he would be looked down upon.

The more she thought about it, the angrier he got, and she even started to hate Xiao Yuanshi.

He had actually treated her so mercilessly.

In the future, she would not have any feelings for him anymore.

Ge Chunyi and Mdm Niu had naturally heard of this.

Ge Chunyi couldn’t help but curse his sister along with Mdm Niu. It was so embarrassing to be demoted to a concubine.

In the future, how would it be convenient for them to do things in the deputy governor’s office?

He didn’t know if Ge Chunru’s change in identity would affect him from having the good life he had imagined.

Shi Qingluo was not surprised when she found out. Everything was within her control.

Very good, the “good days” of Little Lady Ge have finally come.

After solving the problem of Little Lady Ge, she could focus on dealing with King Jin’s manor.
