Marry a concubine? Reborn to move out of the mansion and marry a general

Xie Xilan wanted to struggle a bit, but her limbs seemed to be firmly held by iron fists.

Being carried upside down, she was so panicked that she had no where to put her things, so she raised her back with her belly sticking out, not even daring to breathe loudly!

Xie Huaizhong's eyes were red. It was such a shame and humiliation for his daughter to be carried out of the Gu Mansion in this position!

Seeing the indifference and contempt on the faces of the Gu family, and considering some of the information he secretly heard, Xie Huaizhong suppressed his anger:

"Lan'er is ignorant and I have taught her bad things. I apologize to you all on her behalf!"

Xie Huaizhong was indeed flexible. He stood up and bowed to everyone.

Even Gu Feiwan was not skipped and he even stayed there for a few seconds!

Unfortunately, Gu Feiwan just lowered his head and sipped his tea, as if he didn't notice at all!

The scene was a little cold, Gu Heshan frowned and said, "Master Xie, if you are alright, then go back earlier."

Xie Huaizhong paused, and then felt bitter. He had never received such an obvious order to expel someone!

But he still forced a smile: "In fact, I should have come to Gu's house a long time ago, but I was always delayed because of the busy affairs of the court."

The usual official opening remarks were followed by a faint snort from Gu Hechuan:

"That's right. Now that Master Xie doesn't have to attend the morning court, he has a lot of free time!"

Xie Huaizhong's face froze. He knew that he would be subjected to some ridicule today, but to be spat on in the face was really unpleasant!

"When Fei Wan got married, she brought... 6,000 taels of silver as a dowry." At this point, Xie Huaizhong hurriedly explained:

"It's not that I want to embezzle the remaining four thousand taels. I'm really worried that the hole in the Weiwu Marquis's Mansion will be difficult to fill, so I thought of leaving some money for Fei Wan in case of emergency!"

"Now that Fei Wan has returned to the Gu family, the remaining four thousand taels should naturally be handed over to the Gu family. As for the ten thousand taels for Lan'er, I have also brought them today!"

Xie Huaizhong took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket and said, "There are a total of 20,000 taels of silver here. The extra 6,000 taels will be my compensation to Fei Wan."

Xie Huaizhong felt a great pain in his flesh. He was not a corrupt official, so even though he had some silver, taking out these 20,000 taels at once was like cutting off a piece of his flesh!

The servant took the banknote from the table and handed it to Gu Yechen.

Gu Yechen glared at the servant, who was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and handed it to Gu Feiwan respectfully!

Gu Feiwan took the banknote in his hand and looked at his grandparents.

"You are the future head of the family, and this matter concerns you, so you can decide!"

Madam Gu looked kind, no longer as violent and fierce as before.

"Yes, no matter what you do, we support you!" Gu Yechen followed suit.

The two brothers Gu Heshan and Gu Hechuan also nodded frequently, and Gu Hechuan said lightly:

"It's not a lot of money, just 20,000 taels of silver, no need to worry too much!"

Xie Huaizhong took a deep breath, angry but not daring to say anything!

Gu Feiwan took out a six thousand tael silver note and asked the servant to return it: "Thank you, sir, you have paid off the fourteen thousand taels of silver you owed the Gu family! You no longer owe the Gu family any money!"

Xie Huaizhong's eyes were confused, he always felt that there was something else behind Gu Feiwan's words!

Six thousand taels of silver were placed on the table, he wanted to take it but didn't dare!

"You deceived my grandparents in the past, and you controlled me, making the Gu family afraid to take any action. How do you plan to repay these debts, Master Xie?"

Gu Feiwan's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth turned up, as if he was looking at a clown.

Xie Huaizhong collapsed!

He thought that the Gu family should have vented most of their anger after suppressing him to this extent. Now that he was willing to go bankrupt and pay back the 20,000 taels of silver, the Gu family should stop.

But unexpectedly, Gu Feiwan brought up the past again and wanted to investigate everything that happened in the past!

"I... I raised you... and betrothed you to a wealthy family..." Xie Huaizhong trembled and spoke incompletely.

"The Gu family has raised Xie Xilan well. If she hadn't been recognized so early, could the family she was betrothed to be worse than the Weiwu Marquis Mansion?"

When he said the last sentence, Gu Hechuan laughed!

Xie Huaizhong's face turned red. In his heart, he always bullied the Gu family because they were not from the capital and were not familiar with the affairs of the capital.

"My sister-in-law was about to give birth, and seeing how pitiful you were, she stayed up all night to swaddle your child. But you treated Fei Wan like this. You are worse than pigs and dogs! People like you should be deserted by everyone, have a miserable old age, suffer all kinds of torture during life, and go to the eighteenth level of hell after death, never to be reincarnated!"

Gu Heshan is a straightforward person. If he can scold someone directly, he would rather not beat around the bush!

This made Xie Huaizhong, who was used to hearing euphemistic words in official circles, feel as embarrassed as if he was stripped naked and executed in public.

Even after walking out of the gate of Gu Mansion, Xie Huaizhong was still in a daze, with three of his seven souls missing!

"Master Xie, remember this. This 14,000 taels of silver is what you owe to the Gu family. Don't think that paying it back will wipe out all the grudges!"

Xie Feiwan's words kept lingering in his ears. Xie Huaizhong didn't understand what had happened to his adopted daughter, who used to be submissive and obedient to everything he said.

Could it be that he is really a child of the Gu family? After returning to the Gu family, he became more decisive and ruthless?

There were sporadic cries coming from the carriage, and Xie Huaizhong frowned deeply.

So when the daughter of Xie family returns, should she act pretentiously and in such a way that she cannot be presentable?

Thinking of how Xie Xilan had just thrown away her dignity, knelt and begged, and insisted on recognizing the marriage with the Gu family, Xie Huaizhong suddenly felt cold in his heart and lost all hope!

If he could live his life over again, he would never meet the Gu family again!

After Xie Huaizhong returned, he locked himself in his house all day.

The clerical work in the Ministry of Public Administration was very leisurely. There were so many officials, both big and small, in the capital that no one cared about the absence of Xie Huaizhong.

But not long after, Xie Huaizhong showed up in the capital again!

The Weiwu Marquis Mansion is getting married!

As the weather grew colder, all the wealthy families who had gone to their villas in the suburbs of Beijing to enjoy the scenery moved back to the city early.

The Gu family also moved back to Liulv Lane.

"How come you have time to come here today?" Madam Chen twisted her waist and floated in front of Gu Feiwan like a willow swaying in the wind.

Gu Feiwan sighed deeply, a figure like this could only be acquired through talent, and it was definitely not something that could be developed later in life.

"I miss the good wine you have here, and I miss you even more!" Gu Feiwan leaned on Chen Niangzi's shoulder, swaying and acting coquettishly.

Mrs. Chen looks tough, but she is most susceptible to Gu Feiwan's tricks.

I knew Gu Feiwan did it on purpose, but I just couldn't bear to refuse!

She poked Gu Feiwan's forehead hard: "Just give me some magic potion and make me die of it. I wonder who will still tolerate you?"

Gu Feiwan did not answer, but just smiled and pestered Chen Niangzi for wine.

Madam Chen had no choice but to have someone heat up some good wine and set out eight plates of snacks and dried fruits, in an attempt to coax Gu Feiwan to drink less.

"Do you feel sad when you see your ex-husband getting married?" Madam Chen was peeling dried fruits and handed the kernels to Gu Feiwan.

After Gu Feiwan drank a cup of hot wine, he felt warm all over and became even lazier.

He waved his hands and snickered, "No! But his marriage is really good for me. My family was afraid that I would be sad, so they let me out to play these two days!"
