Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

Get married, and again?

Xu Yixing glanced at Siqin and Sihua, both of them looked confused.

"Princess, where did you get this information? Why didn't I know about my father's marriage?"

"How should I know why you don't know? The news has spread all over the capital. General Xu is going to marry the former Left Vice Minister's sister. It will probably happen this year. If you don't know, go back and ask your father."

After the Fourth Princess finished speaking, she felt bored and jumped away, leaving Xu Yixing stunned.

"The sister of the former Left Vice Minister?" Xu Yixing sorted out the information for a long time before finally remembering the corresponding person. It turned out to be her.

Zuo Shilang is not the name of an official title. Instead, because his surname was Zuo and he was the former Shilang of the Ministry of Revenue, people got used to calling him that, and so it became Zuo Shilang.

Actually, Minister Zuo is Minister Gu's predecessor, and that means he is Gu Shuang's father's predecessor. His sister is now forty years old, about the same age as my father. She was a widow in her early years. Why does she want to marry my father now?

Hey! This is weird! Why is Dad so at odds with the Ministry of Revenue?

Xu Yixing sat in his seat, thinking for a long time, considering the truth of this matter. It has been less than a year since Gu Shuang passed away, so it is not reasonable to get married so soon. But after all, it is not the first time for both of them, and they are old, so perhaps they don't have to pay attention to the wedding like children.

But... Dad is really heartless. It's only been half a year and he's already thinking about marrying someone new. No wonder Gu Shuang married into the family a year after Mom died!

At first, Gu Shuang was proud that Mrs. Bai died early, which gave her a chance, but now she never expected that she would repeat the situation her mother experienced back then.

No, go home!

Xu Yixing stood up quickly, apologized to the princess, asked someone to tell Lu Anyuan, then left the table in a hurry and went straight to the general's mansion.

Just as they arrived at the mansion gate, Xu Yixing suddenly saw A Da following them for some unknown reason, riding a horse behind the carriage.

"Why did you follow me? Does your Highness have something to say?"

"No, it's just that you left in a hurry just now, and didn't explain the reason. Your Highness was afraid that you might need it, so he asked me to go with you."

"Oh." But you really can't get involved in this matter. This is my father's private matter. It's a bit presumptuous for me, as a daughter, to speak up, not to mention that there are other people around. "It's nothing serious. You can go to my house with Siqin Sihua and sit for a while. I have something to talk to my father. You don't have to come near."

Xu Yixing jumped out of the car and went straight to his father's study without looking back. As expected, his father did not attend any banquets today and was at home doing something unknown.

Xu Qian was standing at the door of the study. Seeing Xu Yixing's surprised expression, he quickly blocked the door and said, "The Second Miss is back. It's inconvenient for the general now. Why don't you come to see her later?"

When Xu Yixing saw this, his first reaction was that his father was hiding someone in the study. He was about to break in, but after thinking for a long time, he decided to give his father some face.

"Okay, Uncle Xu, I'll be waiting in my yard. If Dad is ready, please ask someone to call me." As he turned and left, he made a gesture with his hand in front of his chest, which was a signal for Ying Jiu.

Although it's not impossible for my dad to remarry, but hiding a mistress in a golden house is a bit too embarrassing, isn't it?

Xu Yi felt uncomfortable with his qi circulation, and kept fanning himself with a handkerchief to cool down. He still felt uneasy when he went to the yard.

Ying Jiu went and came back without showing up. He just talked to her from the beam in mid-air: "The study over there has been dispersed. Three people have left."

"Three?" Xu Yixing almost choked to death on his saliva. Three people hidden in the golden house? Wouldn't this tire my father to death? "Who are these three people?"

"I don't know. They all look like the military advisors. I can't recognize them without their official uniforms."

"It's not a woman..." Xu Yixing let out a long sigh. I thought so. This was probably because my father was discussing something with his old friends, but I bumped into him. Fortunately, I didn't rush in directly, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

"Second Miss, the master wants to see you." Someone soon came to the courtyard to pass on the message. Xu Yixing straightened her clothes and headdress, calmed herself down, and returned to the study.

"Dad, have a happy Dragon Boat Festival."

"Get up, get up. There's no need to perform such formalities. Isn't there a banquet at Prince Cheng's mansion today? Why are you home at this time?" The old man looked very energetic and looked three or four years younger. I wonder what happy event had happened to him.

Xu Yixing felt more and more suspicious. Could it be that his father was really a teenager again?

"Dad, I heard some rumors at the Dragon Boat Festival today. I want to defend you, but I don't know the details, so I dare not speak."

Father Xu was still smiling, and asked with his eyes bent, "What kind of rumor is it that makes my daughter so embarrassed?"

"Some people say that dad is going to marry the sister of the former Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Is this true?" Xu Yixing didn't beat around the bush. After asking this question, he went straight to look at his father's face.

He just frowned slightly, showing no anger, nor rushing to refute.

"So this is true?" Xu Yixing asked weakly. When he saw his father's expression, he felt bad. This matter was indeed not groundless.

"Yan'er, you ran away from King Cheng's banquet to question your father?"

"How could it be!" Xu Yixing half-knelt down, bowed deeply, swallowed the dirty words in her heart, and said softly: "It's just that... Mother has only passed away for more than half a year. If Dad gets married now, I'm afraid that everyone will talk about his coldness. And the left minister's sister doesn't seem to be a good match. I'm just worried about your future."

Dad was quite satisfied with her attitude and raised his hand to signal her to get up.

"Dad's future depends on you and the Seventh Prince."

These words were somewhat blunt, and Xu Yixing felt extremely weak. We are both half dead and can't even see tomorrow, so how can we dare to take you with us?

"This is indeed true, but Dad didn't expect it to spread so quickly. But I didn't intend to hide it from anyone. Since you already know it, then let it be."

How about this? How about this? Xu Yixing was furious when he heard this. It seemed that his father didn't want to explain to him at all.

"Dad, this is inappropriate. Where is Yiwen? My brother doesn't know about this, right? Shouldn't we tell him about this?"

"Hmph, you little bastard. You've been away studying for half a year and you don't even want to come back for the New Year. Aren't you really going against me? You can come back if you want!"

"Dad! How could you not tell my brother about such a big thing? He is still a child of our Xu family. And your decision is indeed a bit hasty. Our family does not lack a mistress. If you feel that the mansion is empty and there is no one, you can either take in a concubine or buy someone. Why make such a big fuss?"

Dad is the only one left in the general's mansion now. It's understandable that he wants to find someone to take care of Xu Yixing, but this candidate is not very low-key.
