I Became The Stepmother of My Ex-husband
Chapter 40: .Xu Jia
Lin Weixi only found out after he died once that he was just a female partner in a prostitute. Sure enough, Lin Weixi smiled when he heard it, playing with the crystal clear, almost warm white jade chess pieces with his fingers, and asked: "What kind of game is this, I have never heard of it before."
Ningfu, who was serving on the side, answered, "This is a new method that our concubine has come up with. It's easy and fun. Many young ladies in the Guogong Mansion like it."
Lin Weixi smiled and did not speak. Seeing her gaze fixed on the chess piece, Gao Ran gently added: "This is my dowry. The name is black and white warm jade chess. It is made of warm jade. Whenever you take it out They are all radiant and warm, and they can protect the body after a long time."
Ningfu thought that Lin Weixi didn’t know what warm jade was, and said quickly, “Ms. Lin Xu hasn’t seen this kind of jade yet? This is not ordinary jade. Even in the capital, warm jade is priceless, it’s hard to be a jade. Please, but in the dowry of the concubine, it is nothing more than an ordinary dowry."
"Ning Fu." Gao Ran said with a reproach, "giving more dowry to less is the intention of the elders. This is the grandmother's love for me. Did you come out and say it openly?" After finishing speaking, Gao However, looking at Lin Weixi, he nodded a little embarrassedly: "Miss Lin laughed. Don't be offended by Miss Lin. Even if it is made of gold and jade, if it is not practical, it is nothing but something outside of the body. We play chess."
Lin Weixi looked at the chess piece in his hand and smiled meaningfully: "The concubine Shizi is really open-minded."
Isn't it open-minded? A year ago, this was Lin Weixi's thing.
This was Lin Weixi's dowry before, and Gao Ran's maid hurriedly explained it to Lin Weixi. It was ridiculous, and it made my teeth itchy after the laugh.
Lin Weixi knew that after her death, her dowry would have to be redistributed by the British government. She even acquiesced to this possibility in her heart. But when the result was really presented to her nakedly, Lin Weixi found that he still couldn't let go.
Not only the game of chess in front of him, Lin Weixi looked up, the surrounding gold and silver decorations, blue and white porcelain, and even the sandalwood furniture on display all had a sense of familiarity.
Lin Weixi hurriedly retracted her gaze, and she was furious when she looked at it again. Seeing Lin Weixi’s face stiff, Gao Ran thought that Lin Weixi was frightened by his wealthy family background. He felt ashamed of himself, and smiled graciously. He said: "Ningfu, this Nizi always has no door on her mouth, and she often loses her heart. If you say something, you don’t have to mind Miss Lin, she has no malice."
"If you can't control your own mouth, then punish you. If you still can't speak, then you can sell it to your dentist." Lin Weixi was uncomfortable, and her hair exploded as soon as she heard this. , Her voice still has a delicate, sickly aura, and she is not forgiving if she says, "My maid is not good at discipline, but it makes others bear it? Why should I take you? Why should your dog bite people? ?"
Wan Xing let out a "pouch" laugh, and hurriedly shrank her shoulders and lowered her head when she saw the sight of others. Even so, she could see that her shoulders were shaking slightly.
Wan Xing was bought directly from outside, and it was inevitably worse in the big scene. Wanyue had experienced in the house, and now she was calmer than Wan Xing. Even if she really wanted to laugh, she had to hold back.
Ning Fu was embarrassed by Lin Weixi's words, and Wan Xing smiled behind him, and his eyes were red immediately. Ning Fu and the other dowry maids stared at Lin Weixi angrily, and Gao Ran was faceless when he was judged by others in front of his grand maid.
Mother Tao glared with anger, Gao Ran glanced back, her eyes moved slightly, and she still said with a good temper: "Ning Fu is straightforward, but she can say whatever she wants. It's not like those people have a crooked heart. She is not malicious, I am afraid Miss Lin has misunderstood."
"What does the concubine Shizi mean? What does it mean to be outspoken, so there is no malice. I am still blunt, why is the concubine the concubine unhappy. Moreover, there is one thing to say, the people with crooked hearts in the concubine's words want to insinuate who what?"
After Lin Weixi finished speaking, he did not wait for Gao Ran to reply, and the courtyard was abnormally silent at this time. Lin Weixi paused for a moment before reacting immediately.
Gao Ran, this lingering person, give her another hand! Lin Weixi was always like this before he was born again. It was obvious that the other party said some specious things first. After provoking Lin Weixi's temper, Gao Ran began to pretend to be dumb and wronged. At this time, it must happen that an elder or brother passed by!
Lin Weixi suffocated his head and turned back, and he saw Gu Chengyao standing not far away. What's worse, Gu Huiyan was still standing in front of him.
Gao Ran had already stood up at this time, and graciously bowed to Gu Huiyan and Gu Chengyao, looking decent and generous, while Lin Weixi was aggressive, and seemed to be very clueless.
Lin Weixi stood up coldly, saluted hard, his heart was so angry that it exploded. Gu Chengyao kept frowning, only to be patient with Lin Weixi as a guest.
Compared to Gu Chengyao, who was unhappy, Gu Huiyan's face was much calmer, and he couldn't see what he was thinking at all. Gu Huiyan brought people closer, and the maids on both sides gave way. Lin Weixi and Gao Ran both bowed their heads and whispered softly, "Master."
Gu Huiyan glanced across the chessboard, ignorant of happiness and anger, as if just casually asking: "Are you playing chess?"
Gao Ran rushed and said, "Yes. My daughter-in-law often plays a new game with my brothers and sisters at home. I am talking about this new game with Ms. Lin. I didn't notice that the prince and the son are driving. Please forgive me."
Lin Weixi snorted inwardly. I don't know how many scenes she had been watching just now, but Gao Ran took the initiative to cover it up with chess. As a result, Lin Weixi's reputation for making troubles unreasonably and not knowing good or bad became more convincing.
Gu Huiyan seemed to have heard Gao Ran and Lin Weixi talking about chess. He smiled and asked, "Oh? I don't know how to play chess. What is it like?"
Gao Ran once again said how to play backgammon, and after hearing this, Gu Huiyan's eyes aroused interest: "The first of the five players wins. This method is new."
"Let my father laugh." Gao Ran pursed his lips and chuckled, and Tao mother next to him added in due course, "My lord, this kind of backgammon game was invented by our young lady."
After hearing this, Gu Huiyan's eyes were more meaningful: "It's rare. Since you two want to play against each other, you don't have to delay your yaxing, you just continue."
Gao Ran smiled slightly and turned his head to look at Lin Weixi inquiringly. Lin Weixi suffocated his stomach full of fire, his eyes glowed brightly at the time, and even his voice was choking hard: "I'll go down, I'm afraid you won't make it?"
After hearing this, Gu Chengyao frowned, and nodded apologetically to Gu Huiyan and Gu Chengyao, then stretched out his hand to signal Lin Weixi to take a seat first.
Lin Weixi sat down directly with a cold face. After Gu Huiyan saw it, an imperceptible smile flashed across his eyes.
Gao Ran Shi Shiran sat on the opposite side with her fingers between her fingers and said: "Miss Lin played for the first time. I took advantage. It is better for me to let Miss Lin three sons."
"Are you annoying? If you really want to let me go, just let me go the four first?" Lin Weixi's eyes were not good, and his tone was almost like eating chili. She looked at Gao Ran's face and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why, unwilling? Then let's go, pretending to be, if you're not tired, I'm still annoyed."
"Miss Lin!" Gu Chengyao couldn't help but reminded in a deep voice. His utterance stabbed a lot of trouble. Lin Weixi turned his head back, almost bursting into flames in his eyes: "What did you tell me to do? I didn't talk to you again!"
When Lin Weixi said this, his eyes were bright, like a finishing touch, and the entire exquisite, unlike real-life hibiscus noodles, also came alive. It can only be said that a beauty is a beauty. Even if it is a strong word, the person on the other side can't really be angry. Moreover, Lin Weixi's body is weak. Such a delicate beauty will have to stare at the eyes and be a tyrannical appearance. Putting it in the eyes of others, it is almost coquettish. same.
Gu Chengyao was choked, speechless. Gu Huiyan didn't hold his smile, tilted his head and smiled, then said: "Chess is the way of a gentleman, pay attention to virtue."
Lin Weixi barely held back her temper. Sitting on the opposite side of the chessboard, Gao Ran subtly gave birth to a feeling of being neglected. She trembled. This was not the effect she wanted to achieve. Gao Ran hurriedly spoke, drawing everyone's attention back to himself: "Miss Lin, I will settle down first and accept."
Gao Ran is full of confidence. She is a shortcoming in Go, but when it comes to gobang and checkers, how can these ancients compare to her? Gao Ran deliberately showed his hand in front of her husband and King Yan, so that everyone can see who is the white, rich and beautiful with connotation and cultivation, and who is the empty straw bag with the beauty and the brain.
Gao Ran was still imagining whether her chess posture was graceful, and whether her eyebrows just showed the beauty of a serious woman, she was fine-tuning her angle, and suddenly saw Lin Weixi put the chess piece between her fingers back into the chess box.
Gao Ran was slightly stunned, what did Lin Weixi do? She was a little unhappy: "What's the matter?"
Gu Chengyao frowned and did not speak. Instead, Gu Huiyan smiled lightly on her face, and pointed at the chessboard with her eyes, indicating, "She won."
Lin Weixi won? Gao Ran was shocked, impossible! She played backgammon, how could an ancient person win?
Gao Ran hurriedly went to watch the chess game and found that, as King Yan said, Lin Weixi had already joined the five sons first, and Gao Ran was immersed in his thoughts about whether his posture was beautiful enough, but he didn't even notice.
Wan Xing and Wanyue watched from behind. The two of them actually didn’t understand, but King Yan said that if the girl won, there would be no mistake. Wan Xing immediately clapped his hands happily: "The girl only played for the first time, but she won The concubine with this kind of gameplay? The girl is really amazing."
Gao Ran's face turned red all of a sudden. Since she moved out of Gomoku at the age of eight, she has never lost due to the cheap rules. This time she was really careless, and she lost such a big face. Gao Ran learned from it painfully, withdrew his unnecessary thoughts, and played the second game with Lin Weixi wholeheartedly.
However, Gao Ran didn't hold on for a while before he was easily taken down by Lin Weixi.
Gao Ran was completely stunned. She smiled awkwardly at everyone's gaze, stroked her shredded hair on the sideburns, and said, "Miss Lin is really clever, she can make it easy. I just got lost, let everyone laugh."
Gao Ran implicitly signaled that he was deliberately letting Lin Weixi, Lin Weixi snorted disdainfully. She thought no one was paying attention, but Gu Huiyan was actually watching.
Gu Huiyan tilted his head and coughed lightly, hiding the smile on his lips. Gu Chengyao actually noticed Lin Weixi's small movements, he was a little embarrassed, and then saw King Yan actually smile, Gu Chengyao was shocked beyond words.
For some reason, Gu Chengyao suddenly had a very subtle feeling.
After Gao Ran forcibly saved himself, he straightened his expression and said to Lin Weixi, "Three wins in five rounds. Girl Lin, please."
Gao Ran faintly revealed a posture that she had only made Lin Weixi before, but now she was going to be serious, Gao Ran took the posture of the previous life exam and stared at the chessboard intently. Her reputation and face are all in this game, and she can't get lost.
At the beginning of the third game, he was full of taste and eager to win, but Lin Weixi also changed his previous style and became very aggressive, only offensive but not defensive. At first, Gao Ran thought about taking advantage of Lin Weixi’s eager attack and chaos to take the opportunity to win, but she soon discovered that the phrase "offensive is the best defense" was correct. She was tired of besieging Lin Weixi, and her sunspot layout was in a mess. , And when she was hanging around and running around, Lin Weixi won without a word.
Lin Weixi put the white chess between his fingers back on the board, and raised his lips to a high smile, with a somewhat victorious appearance: "You are welcome to win three games in five rounds."
Gao Ran was dumbfounded before realizing that Lin Weixi's "you're welcome" was the "acquisition" she had made when she started the game.
Gao Ran's unprecedented shame...and aggrieved. She never expected that she would lose if she played modern games with the ancients as a passing girl. But before Gao Ran was full of thoughts that he would win and boasted a lot of Haikou, now... after so many years of life for Gao Ran, it was not an exaggeration to discover for the first time that he wanted to get into the ground.
Especially Gu Huiyan and Gu Chengyao were still watching, sitting in embarrassment, barely able to stand up. Seeing this, her maid quickly said: "The cold spring is expected to be very cold, and the wind is strong today. Was the concubine the prince stimulated by the cold?"
Gao Ran supported her forehead when she heard this: "Maybe, since I got up today, I was in a daze and always remembered things wrong."
