I Became The Stepmother of My Ex-husband
Chapter 24: .wife
It was rainy during the Dragon Boat Festival. Since the rain at the Palace Banquet, the capital has been shrouded in gray rain for several days.
"Miss Lin." The visitor ran across the yard quickly and put away the rain gear on the back of the hand porch. She patted the water on her body and smiled at Lin Weixi, "Miss Lin, the concubine has something to do with you."
Wan Xing looked at the rain outside, and looked at the messenger questioningly: "It's still raining, why did the concubine Shizi call us a girl at this time?"
"This servant doesn't know, maybe there is something important to tell Miss Lin."
Lin Weixi stood up from the narrow couch when he heard this, and said, "Since there is something important, let's go."
Wan Xing hurriedly went to the inside to get Lin Weixi's cloak. While tidying up the folds on Lin Weixi's clothes, she muttered, "The girl got a little bit of cold when she came back from the palace, and she went out to get a cold wind today, so don't make the girl sick. Up."
"Wan Xing."
Wan Yue twisted Wan Xing secretly, and quickly pulled Wan Xing away. Lin Weixi glanced lightly, tightened his cloak, and walked out.
The rain water slipped from the eaves, and from a distance, Lin Weixi walked on the porch. Even though the eaves above his head covered the rain, the corners of his clothes were still wet.
In the hall, Gao Ran was talking to a well-dressed old servant woman. She saw Lin Weixi come in and waved her hand inwardly: "Ms. Lin is here, go sit inside. I still have something to do. Please Miss Lin. Wait a minute."
Lin Weixi glanced at the woman in the hall, and went straight inside without saying anything.
Seeing Lin Weixi walked to the back room without saying a word, she flicked her eyes towards Lin Weixi's back, lowered her voice, and said to Gao Ran with a frown, "Earth concubine, this one is really true. Grace gave her three points of decentness, she really slapped her nose! In front of the prince, she can speak neat tricks, but when she has been overwhelming, she dared to shake the face of the concubine."
"Mother Sun family, don't say it." Gao Ran increased his voice slightly and said, "She is the only daughter of a hero, and her father died to save the prince. It is inevitable that she will be withdrawn. You can talk to me about these things. No matter, when you are outside, you are never allowed to mention it again."
"Second concubine, you are too kind." The grandmother grumbled her wrist, and she muttered something again. Then she rubbed her hands and brought up another matter, "Second concubine, look at the errands in the kitchen... "
Lin Weixi sat on the soft cushion, separated by the wooden grid, vaguely heard Gao Ran and grandma muttering something in low voice, and then talked about the kitchen procurement. Even if I didn't hear the previous content clearly, Lin Weixi could guess that it was definitely not a good thing. The grandmother made a fool of herself, she had already seen it.
Speaking of business affairs, Gao Ran didn't deliberately lower his voice anymore, and Lin Weixi sat inside, listening intermittently. The grandmother complained, and it was not easy to break life, and also the hardship in the kitchen, and finally it was all involved with Princess Shen. The grandmother can say with a single mouth, under her tongue, it seems that she is really a loyal old servant, hardworking and hardworking for the palace, but unfortunately offended the former concubine, the former concubine was eager to place her own person, so she The grandmother's family withdrew from the acquisition position. Although the grandmother still stays in the kitchen, it doesn't matter what she makes a living, she can't even get on the stove, she just fools their family.
The grandmother said that at the end, she wiped her tears and wept, and the maids around her also had relatives. Gao Ran sighed and said: "I understand your loyalty. You are an old man for many years. Since your mother-in-law was alive, you have been a slave in the Yanwang Mansion. There is no doubt about your loyalty. Even if you don't talk about your hard work over the years, Just by the kindness of my mother-in-law, I will not treat your family badly."
The grandmother listened to tears and clapped her hands: "If you can win the sentence, the old slave is willing to die immediately!"
"Don't talk like this, it's a good way. It's unlucky to talk about these deaths and lives." Gao Ran groaned, turned the roster, and said, "Since it was just a misunderstanding before, then you were sent to the edge by sister Xi. I’m really wronged. In my opinion, your family should come back to take care of the kitchen procurement. You know the vendors in the vegetable farm and hand over the procurement to you. I can rest assured."
The grandmother was overjoyed and immediately knelt down and kowtow: "Xie Shizi Consort."
Lin Weixi held the tea and blew slowly, when she shook her head and smiled. The grandmother really had a good mouth. I'm afraid Gu Chengyao was tricked by such rhetoric before.
Grandma is indeed an old servant for many years, but who says that old servants are loyal servants? The more complex the domestic slaves, the more likely they are to do unclean things. Lin Weixi checked the accounts last year, and found that the kitchen area had a lot of shortfalls, and it was actually in the hands of this Diao slave. Relying that Lin Weixi was a bride who didn't understand the account books, the woman used her hands and feet to fool her on the account books, and Lin Weixi was able to scold her and scold her. At that time, the grandmother was also loyal and clambering with Princess Shen. The grandmother had served by Princess Shen. This was also the confidence of her rampant corruption in the house. Lin Weixi didn't even look at it at that time, and just carried their family out of the kitchen. If it weren't for the face of her mother-in-law, Princess Shen, how could her grandmother keep a spare job in the kitchen.
But after a long time, Gao Xi died of illness, and the grandmother looked empty and ran out to be a demon. Gao Ran was also confused, so he really believed it and restored him to his original post.
Gao Ran does not necessarily believe in grandma's rhetoric, but grandma looks simple and honest. Even if a person with such a face has his own selfish intentions, he will not be a wicked person. The grandmother was sent off by Gao Xi because of the mismatch between the shopping and the money. Gao Ran flipped through the account books, deeply feeling that Gao Xi made a fuss.
Being the mistress of the house is just like the senior executives before crossing. There will be no fish when the water is clear. Can the people in the purchasing department really not be greedy at all? Impossible, so Gao Ran saw that there was no major problem in the ledger, so he revoked Gao Xi's punishment. Gao Ran sighed Gao Xi in his heart. Gao Xi looked like a famous lady and claimed to be raised up by the princess herself, but why didn't she even have this emotional intelligence? I only knew that he was harsh on his subordinates and asked his subordinates not to make any mistakes. No wonder Gao Xi was mixed up like that after death. No one in the palace said she was good. Who can you blame if you don't have enough EQ?
Gao Ran was in a good mood, as if all the regrets of his previous life had been made up in this life. She is also the daughter of a famous family now. She stepped on the Bai Fumei of all living beings and became an "executive" as soon as she "graduated" from her natal family. Gao Ran firmly believes that with his emotional intelligence, he will be able to get along well. In this way, she was delayed by her own class before crossing, otherwise she was not inferior to those wealthy and beautiful with family businesses.
Gao Ran walked briskly into the room, but she hadn't forgotten that she was still having trouble sitting here. Gao Ran smiled and sat opposite Lin Weixi, repeatedly apologizing: "The trivial matters that cannot be dealt with every day in the palace, you can't get out of it if you're anxious. It's really rude to keep Miss Lin waiting for a long time."
Lin Weixi ignored Gao Ran’s insincere apology. Lin Weixi knew that Gao Xi was dead. How did the Yan King’s Mansion have nothing to do with her? One sentence: "The concubine of the elder concubine would have been cautious in entrusting them with the important matters of the kitchen purchase with only one word."
Yo, she even wanted to point fingers at her butler, she looked at Lin Weixi with a smile, "This is my family affairs in the Yan Palace, Miss Lin don't have to worry about it?"
Lin Weixi snorted lightly, his eyes flowed, and he was too lazy to look at Gao Ran again, reminding Gao Ran.
Gao Ran thought he had won, and was in a better mood, and said, "Miss Lin, you are sixteen years old this year. You are a month old, so you should be considered a seventeenth."
Lin Weixi raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
"What can I mean, but I'm just thinking about it for Miss Lin." Gao Ran smiled and said, "Now that your father's filial piety has been removed, you can't justify dragging you not to marry. You are seventeen and haven't married yet. By the end of the six ceremonies, I will be 18 years old when I am married to my husband’s family. To be honest, I’m already a little bit older. If I don’t hurry up, I’m too old, which may delay childbirth.
Lin Weixi really didn't expect this kind of words to be spoken Gao Ran, if she guessed correctly, the world before Gao Ran was very tolerant of women's marriage age? Lin Weixi really didn't expect that a person who had traveled to ancient times would be even more enthusiastic about marrying and having children than her ancient clan woman. What happened to the 17-year-old couple? What if she doesn't marry forever?
Lin Weixi was disgusted by these words, her face was impatient, and she said coldly: "You called me on a rainy day for this kind of thing? If there is nothing else, then I will leave first."
Gao Xi stopped Lin Weixi's movements, still smiling, staring at Lin Weixi motionlessly: "Miss Lin doesn't want to marry, does she really want to pray for her father, or does she have any thoughts about the Yan Palace?"
Lin Weixi's face was completely cold. There was no smile on her face. Her eyes were black and shiny. For a while, it was almost as hot as a red bead immersed in ice water, and it was cold and blazing: "Princess, you pay attention to your words."
"Ms. Lin is still angry?" Gao Xi smiled and took a sip of tea and covered his lips. "It's me who is wrong. I shouldn't talk about this kind of girl's mind. After all, which girl doesn't have spring, Ms. Lin's color is just right. It is reasonable for Caijun to fall in love at first sight. However, Miss Lin, the son is already married."
Lin Weixi sneered, and looked at Gao Ran with a similar smile: "I know, it's still a second marriage."
Gao Ran was said to be stiff. She hurriedly adjusted her expression to conceal Cai's gaffe: "Even if I am a successor, I am the second concubine that Ming Media is marrying, and is also the first wife. But with the married man while the main room is still alive. It's not clear or not, this is called non-medical fornication, and the third party gets in."
"It's like you only met Gu Chengyao after your sister died. Leave this to yourself." Lin Weixi noticed Gao Ran's gaze, greeted him without dodge, even raised his eyebrows slightly. "Why, I was wrong? Then why did you marry your eldest brother-in-law when the concubine of the previous life died without a month?"
Gao Ran was so heartbroken that she took a deep breath and realized that she really couldn't talk with Lin Weixi, or she could be mad at Lin Weixi! Gao Ran immediately changed the subject and said, "Whatever Miss Lin said, you are a good-sounding tongue, and honest people like us can't say you. But Miss Lin is very old and she is early enough to be a cabinet office. Girl can’t deny it, right? You believe in Lin, our surname is Gu. We are not in our turn to worry about your marriage. But after all, you live in King Yan’s Mansion and you have no name. If you are filial Marrying, then I’m afraid outsiders will talk about our Yan Wang Mansion."
Lin Weixi looked at Gao Ran coldly: "You shut up. Who gave you the courage to make you insult my reputation?"
"Insulting? If Miss Lin really has no idea about the son, how could she be delayed in the Yanwang Mansion and refuse to kiss her." Gao Ran's expression also became cold, "You are willing to stare at someone else's husband, but I don't want to. It’s up to you. I’ve already agreed with Mrs. Qian. The second son of Qian is just the right age and has not yet been married. It is reasonable to say that this kind of good marriage does not fall to outsiders, but who made the second son of Qian see Miss Lin’s beauty? , It’s also a good story. In that case, Mrs. Qian is not picky about your background and background. After reporting to the Queen Mother, the Qian family will send someone to exchange Geng Tie."
Lin Weixi's eyes widened when he heard this: "What did you say? Qian Er?"
Qian Er is a well-known dude in the capital. He sleeps in the flowers and lives in the willows. He is ignorant and unskilled. He can be described as a trash dude. What Lin Weixi looks down on most is this kind of prodigal child who relies on her parents for blessing and prestige. Before or after rebirth, she owes even one look to this kind of person, but now Gao Ran is carrying her behind her back and agreeing. The Qian family's proposal?
"Yes, the nephew of the empress dowager, the eldest son of the Qian family's relatives. The fact of this marriage is hard to think of. Speaking of it, you are still climbing. The second son of Qian doesn't mind the family. I am willing to marry you a poor girl. It's a great blessing." After finishing speaking, she glanced at Lin Weixi's face, meaning it was self-evident. Relying on the body and beauty, it is still the main house of the queen dowager's nephew, please be content.
Lin Weixi became so angry that she calmed down. She asked, "You said that the Qian family would come to exchange Geng Tie after reporting to the empress dowager. Have you given them permission?"
"Yeah, what a wonderful marriage. If you let Joe slip away, then you should cry."
"Oh, you are digging your mind to cling to the high school, others can't look at it. When did you agree? What did you say to the Qian family?"
"That's the son of the Qian family, so please be content." Gao Ran sighed, very impatient, "If you want to go to the Princess Shoukang Mansion to rescue soldiers, then I advise you not to waste your efforts. Princess Shoukang She has no children and no queen, and she can't protect herself, so how dare she face the face of the queen dowager's natal family. You listen to my persuasion, for you, whether you can marry into the Qian's family or be a royal family, this is already a blessing for crossing classes Up."
Lin Weixi’s eyes were scorching light, like fire and ice: "Gao Ran, you are really shameless by nature. Who do you think you are, dare to be the master of my marriage? You married your brother-in-law by relying on a crooked door, and now you still The noble tone of the house persuades others to cling to men, which really loses the face of the British government."
Gao Ran was stabbed in the pain by this sentence and immediately pulled her face down: "Don't push your nose and face, I think I will give you three points for the sake of my father, do you really think I am afraid of you? I am a lady from the British government , The concubine of the first son of Yan Wang, you are just a commoner woman. I talked to you for education, but if you really yell at me, it is not proper."
"You know exactly who Qian Er is, and you dare to agree to it in private. If you do this kind of conscience, don't you be afraid of being known to poke your spine?"
Gao Ran sneered disdainfully: "Are you planning to file a lawsuit with King Yan again? Then you can say so, so that everyone can see if this marriage is a good match and whether I am for your own good. Lin Weixi, you are the heart It’s higher than the sky, and life is thinner than paper. If you want to compare with me, it’s boring. I am the eldest son of Yan Wang and will become Princess Yan in the future. My son will be the future prince when he is born. County kings. My descendants and grandchildren will become royal nobles and enjoy the worship of all the people. The chief and auxiliary generals are still replaced, but the king will not. As long as they do not commit the crime of rebellion, they will be nobles for a lifetime. And you, you have What? A nameless Marquis, with a decent face, even if you marry on your face, your husband-in-law is just a son of an official. The promotion depends on the emperor's grace and fortune. Learn the arts and martial arts, sell to the emperor Home, I am the royal family, and you are the busker. Not only you, but even your children and grandchildren are destined to be no better than my blood in the future."
Lin Weixi stared at Gao Ran motionlessly, almost bursting out of fire in his eyes, Gao Ran even looked back with a smile. Yes, what can Lin Weixi do even if he is angry? Gao Ran is already the concubine of King Yan. Few people in the capital are more noble than Gao Ran. What can Lin Weixi do, a weak woman?
Lin Weixi watched, without saying a word, stood up and lifted the curtain forcefully and left. The bead curtain made a crisp clashing sound. Seeing this, Ning Fu frowned and stepped forward and said: "Shi Zifei..."
"It's okay." Gao Ran reached out his hand to stop Ning Fu's movements, smiled and shook his head, "She can also lose her temper now, don't care about her rudeness, go and do your thing."
Ning Fu responded and retreated quietly. Gao Ran looked at the rain curtain outside the window and muttered: "The rain is actually heavy again..."
Lin Weixi walked quickly into the rain without looking back. When the rain fell on the ground, a white mist appeared, covering the entire corridor. Lin Weixi walked on the edge of the corridor, and his steps were so fast that his clothes became half wet after a short while. Wanyue hurriedly chased it out, trying to put a cloak on Lin Weixi: "Girl, you are weak and can't get caught in the rain."
Lin Weixi was upset, her voice stern: "Don't follow, I want to stay by myself for a while."
"Girl!" Wanyue was not frightened by Lin Weixi's coldness. She rushed to Lin Weixi in spite of the rain, forcibly stopped Lin Weixi, and tied her a cloak: "Girl, even if your heart is upset, you can't have trouble with your body. ! You caught a little bit of cold when you went out. If you get caught in the rain again and you are blown by the cold wind, you may not know how you will suffer when you return.
Wan Yue forcibly pulled her back, but Lin Weixi wanted to get rid of it but failed. She struggled hard a few times, and with this movement, her mind gradually calmed down.
It was simply the most stupid way to punish her body with other people's mistakes. Lin Weixi stopped struggling and let Wanyue cage her with her cloak.
Seeing that Lin Weixi finally calmed down, Wan Yue was also relieved. After finishing Lin Weixi's collar, she stepped back and stood quietly behind Lin Weixi, listening to the pattering rain outside the corridor with her.
Gao Ran is right. She is really mean, but what can Lin Weixi do with her? Lin Weixi is not worried about the marriage with the Qian family. It is difficult to form a marriage, but it is too simple to destroy. As long as she insists not to marry or twists her hair with scissors, can the Qian family still marry forcibly? But in this way, Lin Weixi's half-life green lantern ancient Buddha, suffering and loneliness are inevitable.
What Lin Weixi really cares about is that if Gao comes, he will be killed for three generations, but Wang Jue will not change for generations. The prince’s eldest son was born as soon as he was born. In the future, the prince will be inherited from the prince. All the other sons will be appointed as the county king. All the thrones will only increase. As long as the prince can give birth, the prince will be passed on from generation to generation. . So Gao Ran is right. King Yan has reached the peak of power, and even the emperor has to rely on King Yan. In the future, King Yan’s Mansion will only be glorified from generation to generation, and the descendants will be endless.
Gao Ran dares to do this, isn't it just because others can't do anything to her? Even if Lin Weixi relieved her temporary difficulties, could she put up her breath and let Gao Ran maliciously calculate her?
But even if she can't bear it, what can she do with Gao Ran!
Lin Weixi stood on the corridor for a long time, even the feet of her skirt were all wet by the rain. Wanyue looked anxious: "Girl, it's rainy and windy, let's go back first!"
"What do you do when you go back." Lin Weixi moved suddenly, and she smiled softly at the rain curtain, her face was white, her lips blushing, but her eyes were terrifyingly indifferent, and she was shocking in the gray rain curtain.
Wanyue looked at it with shock and horror, her heart pounding, she heard Lin Weixi ask in that calm, as if nothing happened, "What time is it?"
"Shen Shimo."
Lin Weixi smiled when she heard the words, turned around and left without even saying where she was going. Wan Yue felt a little frightened instinctively, but was worried that Lin Weixi was alone, so she could only quickly follow.
The guard outside the study stared at the front intently, and did not relax because of the rain. Suddenly his eyes condensed, and he looked at the visitor with some surprise: "Miss Lin?"
Lin Weixi sprinted all the way, now the corners of her skirt are all wet, even her hair is slightly wetted by the rain, and a few locks are mischievously attached to the sideburns of her forehead, making her skin white and snowy, with amazing beauty.
"Is King Yan inside?"
"The prince is here." The guard looked at Lin Weixi with hesitation. Lin Weixi raised his eyebrows: "Can't I enter?"
"Of course not! It's just that, Miss Lin, you are soaked in the rain, do you need someone to come over and wait for you to tidy up?"
"No." Seeing that the guard had no objection, Lin Weixi stepped directly into the hospital. Gu Huiyan's study was located in a separate courtyard, which became quieter because of the rain.
Gu Mingda was also startled when he saw Lin Weixi: "Miss Lin? Why are you soaked in this way? Wait a minute, girl, I'll go and find the servant woman..."
A clear voice came from the inside, probably because he hadn't spoken for a long time, and his voice was still slightly low: "What's wrong?"
Lin Weixi's eyes were sour for some reason, and he took two quick steps towards the direction of the voice: "His Royal Highness."
Gu Huiyan came out of the study and saw Lin Weixi. He was surprised at first, and then lowered his eyes: "What's the matter? Who is the waiter, why did she get her in the rain?"
Wanyue kept her head down, and immediately knelt when she heard this. Lin Weixi stopped Wan Yue, eyes dark, staring at King Yan intently and stubbornly: "It's none of her business. King Yan, I want to tell you something."
Gu Huiyan looked at Lin Weixi, her eyes seemed to swear not to give up until she reached her goal. Gu Huiyan sighed and said, "You go out."
Gu Mingda closed the door and stepped back without saying a word. Lin Weixi stood there and saw Gu Huiyan turning around and walking inward. She hesitated. There were many secrets in King Yan's study, and she was not sure whether she could enter. Before she could think about it, she saw Gu Huiyan coming out from the inside with a piece of white silk in her hand: "The hot water is outside, you wipe your hair first. Your own body knows it, and you can say what you want to say. It's not too late, but if you toss your body and get sick, you will suffer."
Lin Weixi took the white silk, thinking that she was also a pretty young girl who was at a very young age, rubbing her hair indecently in front of the man. What is that? Seeing her motionless, Gu Huiyan asked calmly: "Why, not willing?"
"Silk cloth does not absorb water. Even if you want me to wipe my hair, you should take out a piece of cotton cloth."
Gu Huiyan was really helpless: "Okay, I will prepare it for you next time."
However, thanks to this interruption, Lin Weixi's excitement calmed down, and after thinking about it, his mind became clearer and clearer: "King Yan, I have something to say to you."
"You still remember." Gu Huiyan didn't take this matter to heart. He sat back to his desk, raised his sleeve to hold the pen, moistened the nib, and said casually, "Say it."
"You promised me that if I have any wish, but not too much, you will satisfy me?"
Gu Huiyan replied as he wrote, "Yes."
Lin Weixi breathed lightly: "His Royal Highness, are you missing a wife?"
The ink on the pen flicked, and the letter to Zhang Xiaolian was immediately destroyed.
Gu Huiyan raised his head and looked at her deeply, "What did you say?"
