Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family

Looking at her mother's short-sighted look, Xiao Mingyue couldn't help but curl her lips in her heart.

But she still advised softly: "Mother, please don't mention this matter again in the future. It's a matter that has no chance of success in the first place. Zhu Chengxi is a playboy. Even if she marries into the Chengyang Marquis's mansion, she may not be happy."

Hearing her daughter say this, Xu felt that it made sense. She just felt a little sorry. The Chengyang Marquis's Mansion was a wealthy family. Putting Zhu Chengxi aside, if she could marry into the family, she would definitely have no worries about food and clothing.

"Mom, what do you think of General Lu who saved us last time?"

Xu was stunned for a moment, "Why did you mention him?"

When seeing Xiao Mingyue's shy look, Xu immediately understood what her daughter meant.

She stood up like a rooster with its feathers blown off. She said to Xiao Mingyue, "Let me tell you, Lu Yu has no roots in the capital. He is just a small general now. There are so many dignitaries in the capital. You, my daughter, must open your eyes and choose carefully!"

As soon as Xiao Mingyue heard this, she knew that Xu didn't like Lu Yu, so she immediately explained.

"Mom, don't underestimate Lu Yu because he is just a small general now. He will definitely be very successful in the future!"

"No matter how promising you are, what good will it do? Fighting on the battlefield all day, you never know when you might lose your head. I don't want you to be a widow at such a young age!"

At this point, Xu's earnest advice was simply to ask Xiao Mingyue to think it over carefully and not to hang herself on a tree.

But Xiao Mingyue became a little impatient, "Mom, just believe your daughter! This Lu Yu will definitely be able to stand out in the future and will definitely surpass all other men!"

He is the future emperor. All the men in the world combined are not as good as Lu Yu's toe!

In Xiao Mingyue's heart, Lu Yu was like a god in the sky. As long as she could hold Lu Yu's thighs, she could also ascend to heaven.

Here, Mrs. Xu was talking to her daughter about Lu Yu, and over there, Xiao Ruge and Mrs. Lin also mentioned the matter of the third house.

"Aunt, I heard that Uncle got a job as a captain of a thousand cavalry in Jingjiwei. This position is a bit low for Uncle."

Xiao Ruge was talking to Lin in a serious manner. Xiao Qianqian didn't understand these things, so she didn't interrupt, but sat aside and listened quietly.

Lin sighed after hearing this, "I also know that although your third uncle is capable, we have just returned to Beijing. It is already good enough for us to get this official position now!"

Even this was obtained through the connections of her mother's family.

When he was in the local area, Xiao Jinzhi was just a centurion in the guard camp, and this was because of the relationship with the second master Xiao Congzhi.

If he had not participated in the fight against bandits and achieved some merits, he might not have had a third wife when he returned to Kyoto.

When talking about this, Lin's face was full of worry.

"The Jingji Guard is responsible for the security of the entire capital. I believe that as long as Third Uncle works hard, he will definitely be promoted!"

Xiao Ruge said this with certainty, and Lin felt hopeful after hearing it.

"really?"

"Of course, Third Uncle has the ability. Besides, our Xiao family is a martial arts family. A place like Jingjiwei can be a springboard for Third Uncle!"

I don’t know why, but after hearing Xiao Ruge say this, Lin suddenly calmed down.

However, Xiao Ruge's next words made her feel nervous again.

"My third uncle is a very upright person, but I don't think highly of my second uncle and my eldest uncle's family."

There are good and bad bamboo shoots growing from the same root, and Xiao Jinzhi from the third room is the good one.

In his previous life, Xiao Jinzhi relied on his own efforts and finally became the right-wing general of the Jingji Guard. However, he was later implicated by the first and second wives and never got promoted again.

In this life, Xiao Ruge wanted to support Xiao Jinzhi, not only because of Xiao Qianqian, but also because this third uncle knew how to judge the situation and was a rare honest man in the Xiao family.

"What can I do then?"

Everyone knows their own business, and Lin still considers more about his own small family.

So when she heard Xiao Ruge say this, she immediately asked anxiously.

Even Xiao Qianqian who was standing by looked at Xiao Ruge with concern, wanting to hear what good ideas she had.

Xiao Ruge sighed, "If I were my third uncle, I would give up my position in the Jingji Guard and ask the emperor for a chance to be sent out!"

Hearing this, Lin fell silent.

They had finally returned to the capital, and Lin was unwilling to give up the good life that was within their reach.

Xiao Ruge was not in a hurry, but just persuaded slowly.

"Grandpa has a disciple working in Qiushi Town in southern Yunnan. I heard that the general guarding Qiushi Town got drunk a while ago, fell off his horse, and broke his leg. He has now retired and is unemployed. If Third Uncle is interested, I can help him secretly!"

Lin was startled, and then looked at Xiao Ruge worriedly, "I heard that there are many miasma and poisonous insects in southern Yunnan. If your uncle goes there, will he be able to adapt?"

"There are certainly dangers, but there are also opportunities. Southern Yunnan is rich in soil and water, and it is a very wealthy place. 60% of our grain tax is sent from southern Yunnan every year."

This made Lin hesitate.

She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, and finally said that she would discuss it with Xiao Jinzhi after he came back, and give Xiao Ruge a reply in two days.

As soon as Lin left, Xiao Qianqian said to Xiao Ruge gratefully, "Second sister, thank you for planning for my father!"

Xiao Ruge smiled and patted her hands. "I'm not doing this for you. You can see that my great-aunt has a grudge against me, and the second family sees me as a thorn in their side. As for my eldest uncle's family, they are on the same page as my great-aunt. I can only get close to my third uncle and aunt who are good to me."

If Xiao Ruge said something high-sounding, Xiao Qianqian would definitely be suspicious, but if she said everything was related to her own interests, that would make people feel much more at ease.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Xiao Qianqian's smile became even more sincere.

In the evening, when Xiao Jinzhi came back, Lin told him about Xiao Ruge's proposal. Xiao Jinzhi remained silent for a long time after listening to it.

"What on earth do you think?"

Lin was getting impatient and reached out to gently push her husband.

Xiao Jinzhi came back to his senses and sighed heavily.

"I'm afraid my mother won't agree."

"Do you care whether the old lady agrees or not? Over the years, the old lady has always favored the eldest and second brothers. You are almost suffocated by the eldest and second brothers. Has she ever cared about it?"

Lin was so disappointed with her that tears came out of her eyes.

"Not to mention that my son is getting older now, even Qianqian is getting married. I think the old lady wants to use Qianqian to arrange a marriage so as to consolidate the Xiao family's position in the capital!"

"Qianqian is my flesh and blood. She was born with impotence, and I took great pains to raise her to this size. Could it be that she was used for marriage with the Xiao family?"

The more Lin spoke, the sadder she became, and her tears kept flowing.

Xiao Jinzhi couldn't bear to see his wife cry, so he quickly hugged her and comforted her softly.

"Okay, okay, I'll think about this carefully and we'll talk about it in two days!"
