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

Xie Xilan's coffin didn't stay in the Weiwu Marquis's Mansion for two days.

The sun was about to set, and there was still a glimmer of light between heaven and earth. A horse-drawn carriage swayed out of the corner gate of the mansion.

Except for the coachman and the old maid following the carriage who looked a little heavy-hearted, everything else was no different from the usual horse-drawn carriages.

Nanny Wang stood at the corner gate, watching the carriage go by.

"Mammy, I'm a little scared!" Cuihong was trembling slightly with her belly sticking out.

"If you are afraid, just be content. Don't think too much. Don't meddle in other people's business. Eat when you have food and sleep when you have sleep. The princess will not bother with you." Nanny Wang said softly.

"But what if I'm pregnant with a boy?" Cuihong kept wiping her tears.

Nanny Wang snorted coldly: "A boy? So what if it's a boy? Young Master Yitian is also a boy, so he should be sent to another manor, right?"

"I don't want to be separated from my child, I don't want to die!" Cuihong suddenly ran away: "I'm going to find the old lady, I'm the old lady's maid!"

The carriage turned into the alley, and Nanny Wang closed the corner door, sighing in her heart: The old lady can't even take care of herself, how can she care about others? It's time for her to leave.

Today is the day when students return home from the imperial examinations. The streets are busier than usual.

Students who felt they had done well in the exam gathered in groups of three or five, cups raised, and talked loudly, all expressing their aspirations for the future.

There were even more students who had failed the imperial examination this spring, lying drunk on the street with jars of wine in their arms, and from time to time they would shout randomly like zombies, which would draw a string of curses.

The carriage passed by, and no one knew what was being transported inside, and no one had the time to care about this issue. Only the sound of the wheels rolling over the stones accompanied Xie Xilan all the way.

At dawn the next day, another carriage drove out from the corner gate of the Weiwu Marquis' Mansion, but this time it caused some noise.

"Where are you going to send Tian'er?" Xie Huaizhong was hunched over. In the past, no one in the mansion dared to say anything if he frowned.

But now, even though he looked as angry as a diamond, he was only ridiculed by the driver:

"Thank you, Master. This is the Marquis's Mansion. You are meddling too much!"

"Tian'er is my grandson, and I'm his grandfather, so why can't I take care of him?" Xie Huaizhong blocked the way in the alley with his arms outstretched: "If you want to send him away today, you have to step over my body first!"

"Master Xie, you are being unreasonable, aren't you?" The driver waved the whip in his hand and said nonchalantly:

"Master Yitian lost his mother, so he went to the temple outside the city to light a perpetual lamp for his mother. It was a filial act. Why do you think it is so unbearable when you say it?"

"Mr. Xie, could it be that he has gone insane because of his daughter's death?"

"There's a clinic around the corner. Master Xie, you should hurry up and get some medicine, lest you and your daughter are reunited before Madam Lan's seventh day of death comes!"

"You! How dare you be so presumptuous!" Xie Huaizhong was so angry that his face turned blue.

"How dare you?" The driver frowned. "You are a clerk without any rank, and you dare to stop the carriage of the Marquis' Mansion. This is called insolent!"

"Why are you nagging him? Hurry up!" Someone in the carriage shouted impatiently.

After hearing this, the driver whipped his horse whip and said, "If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for being rude!"

Xie Huaizhong straightened his chest and said, "Let me see Tian'er. If he is willing, I will let you go!"

The driver's mouth curled up a cruel smile, and before Xie Huaizhong could come to his senses,

"Crack!" "Crack!"

It's the crisp sound of a whip hitting a person!

Xie Huaizhong groaned and leaned against the wall!

"Waste!" the driver spat, pulled the reins, and urged the horse to drive out of the alley quickly.

"Tian'er!"

"Grandfather, save me!"

In the carriage, Shen Yitian's voice for help was faintly heard, but it was quickly suppressed and no more sound was heard!

"Tian'er!" Xie Huaizhong was horrified!

He failed to protect his daughter, and now he can't even protect the only child she left behind!

"Madam, I am too ashamed to see you, too ashamed to see you!" He pounded the stone wall hard, and soon blood beads appeared on his palms, staining the bricks and stones at the corner gate of the Weiwu Marquis' Mansion red.

Spring rain is as precious as oil. I don't know when, the sky began to rain, not heavy, but lingering in people's hearts.

Xie Huaizhong staggered as he walked, his cloth clothes soaked with mud. Children playing on the roadside threw stones at him.

"I've never seen this tramp before. He's too old!"

"Get him out of here! Mother said homeless people would kidnap children!"

"I don't want to be separated from my mother. Get rid of him!"

More stones hit Xie Huaizhong. The child did not hold back and threw every stone with all his might.

Xie Huaizhong's face was broken and blood mixed with rain water covered his face, making him look like a ghost that had escaped from a weird story.

"Miss, Xie Huaizhong seems to be lame!" Qinglin lifted the car curtain, took a look, turned around and said.

At this time, Xie Huaizhong happened to pass by. He seemed to be pulled by something and turned his head to look at the carriage.

When their eyes met, Gu Feiwan looked calmly as if he was looking at a stranger, someone he had never seen before.

Xie Huaizhong was stunned for a long while, and tried to force a smile: "Fei Wan, are you here to pick up your father?"

"Bah!" Qinglin spat on the ground and threw the curtain down with his hand: "Shameless dog!"

"Let's go. He is the only one left in the Xie family. He dare not die, nor live. This is the life he deserves to live." Gu Feiwan's voice was chilling, three times colder than the chilly spring rain!

The wheels rolled away, and the dazed Xie Huaizhong suddenly chased after them with two steps, but his steps were weak and he fell heavily to the ground!

"Fei Wan, I am your father, I am your father. Come back, I don't want Xie Xilan anymore. Come back, and your father will live a good life with you!"

Xie Huaizhong's mouth was full of blood, and he kept mumbling. The children who were throwing stones were frightened and scattered into their homes.

In the bluestone-paved alley, Xie Huaizhong was the only one left, lying on the ground in a panic.

Covered in mud and face covered in blood!

Ten days is neither long nor short.

Gu Feiwan only knew that during these ten days, the women of the Gu family had worshipped all the gods and Buddhas.

Although Gu Yechen was full of disdain, Gu Feiwan saw with his own eyes that his grandfather took advantage of his grandmother's nap to go to the Buddhist temple and kowtow several times, muttering something, very pious!

"Early this morning, I heard a magpie singing happily outside the window. It must be some happy event is about to happen!" Madam Gu said auspicious words while serving Madam Gu breakfast.

Gu Feiwan's eyes were a little puffy, but she was full of energy: "My two brothers are both outstanding people. If they don't pass the exam, the examiner must be blind!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Madam Gu scolded, "You're almost a mother, and you're still so outspoken!"

The pickled cucumber slices that Gu Feiwan had just picked up fell back into the plate!

"Ahem, I don't understand what grandma said!" Gu Feiwan pretended not to understand, put down his chopsticks and hurried out:

"I'll go help my second aunt with the arrangements!"
