www.lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of I Become a Stepmother to My Ex-Husband!
Lin Weixi found out after she died that she was just the female supporting character in a novel about concubines. As Gao Ran spoke, he asked someone to replace Lin Weixi with a brand new bedding. Lin Weixi interrupted Gao Ran and said, "Prince Princess, please slow down for now. I have brought all the food, clothing, housing and transportation myself. Uncle Zhou will come from the front yard in a while." There is no need for the Crown Princess to move here. As for the courtyard where I will stay temporarily...His Royal Highness King Yan said that he has his own arrangements, so the Crown Princess does not need to worry about it."
Lin Weixi showed an uncooperative attitude from head to toe, refusing to let Gao Ran treat her as a sister, not using the bed tents and bedding prepared by Gao Ran, and now she didn't even want Gao Ran to interfere with her residence. Although Gao Ran was still smiling, the stiffness at the corners of her mouth revealed her true mood. Tao's mother behind Gao Ran was already a little unhappy. Since coming to Prince Yan's Mansion, Gao Ran had turned away from her aunt's aggrievedness and took charge of everything. The prince also loved Gao Ran very much, and even servants like Tao's mother As the tide rises, all boats lift, and my spirits gradually rise. Now a newly arrived orphan girl dares to look down on the Crown Princess. Why?
Tao's mother felt angry and said something in a gentle tone: "The Crown Princess is the mistress of the house, and all the affairs of the palace are under the control of the Crown Princess. Miss Lin is so powerful that she even has food, clothing, housing and transportation." We, the Crown Princess, don’t need to worry about it. I think your family is rich, so you can have all the applications, right?”
"Mother Tao." Gao Ran drank softly, his eyes reproachful, "Miss Lin is a guest."
Lin Weixi smiled inwardly. No wonder Gao Ran succeeded in taking the position of a concubine and married her brother-in-law in one fell swoop. Her sentence was obviously a reproach, but the sentence "Miss Lin is a guest" confirmed that Lin Weixi was unreasonably making trouble, and her family was obviously poor but she still wanted to be high-spirited.
" It can’t be said that it’s very good. My father is a first-class loyal and brave marquis, with thousands of hectares of fertile land to his name. Now my father only has a drop of my blood, and he doesn’t dare to compete with the nobles, but he still has no worries about food and clothing."
Wanyue was worthy of being carefully disciplined by the county magistrate's wife. Upon seeing this, she immediately surrounded Lin Weixi and said, "Although our girl lost her father at a young age, she is a worthy daughter of the Marquis. The Zhongyong Marquis sacrificed his life for the country and is extremely loyal. The most filial piety, as the only daughter of Marquis Zhongyong, our girl is also the queen of Zhonglie."
Gao Ran's expression turned ugly when she heard this. She actually forgot that Lin Weixi also had a nominal father-in-law. In her previous life, Lin Weixi was the child of a martyr. She received many benefits from schooling to employment. It was even more remarkable in ancient times when reputation and clan were more important.
The Marquis of Zhongyong is only an honorary title, with no residence and no real power, but he died for the country. If Lin Weixi were a boy, relying on the name of Zhongyong, it would be almost impossible to join the army and become an official in the future, even if Lin Weixi was only a girl , relying on the reputation and legacy left by Marquis Zhongyong is enough for a smooth life. But Mother Tao just tried to give Lin Weixi a blow... Gao Ran's face was ugly, but she quickly hid it behind a smile. She pretended to be angry and said: "Mother Tao, Miss Lin is a loyal and brave woman who I admire very much in private. , it’s too late to see Miss Lin happy now, why are you talking so much?”
Mother Tao quickly lowered her head and responded, retreating behind Gao Ran. Lin Weixi had been standing with nothing to do. When she saw this scene, she stroked her sleeves, then looked up at the vermilion pillars of the palace, and said slowly: "I just came to the capital and I don't understand the rules in the capital, so I I didn't dare to say anything on the way. But looking at the behavior of the people around the Crown Princess, it turns out that there is no need to punish someone for saying the wrong thing in the capital? Even if you are mean to a guest, the master can overturn it with just one word."
Gao Ran's smile froze on his face: "Miss Lin..."
Lin Weixi turned around and looked into Gao Ran's eyes fearlessly: "Why, what else does the Crown Princess want to teach me?"
Gao Ran was suffocated by Lin Wei Xi’s eyes that looked like what can you do to me. After looking at each other for a moment, Gao Ran did not dare to speak like a harsh martyr’s son, and said with a sullen face: “Mother Tao, I’ve been too much to you. Have you indulged me so much that you don’t know how high the sky is? Why don’t you apologize to Miss Lin quickly?"
Mama Tao's expression was stunned for a moment. Ever since she followed Gao Ran to Prince Yan's Mansion, her treatment was as good as heaven and earth compared to the British government. She was used to the majesty of the head of the family, and now she was asked to do it in front of many servants. Apologizing to a sixteen-year-old girl in front of her was simply tearing her face apart. Tao's mother actually didn't care about Lin Weixi. She was just a mud-legged person. Even if her father was granted a title because of the prince, it could not change that Lin Weixi was a village girl. Tao's mother looked at Gao Ran in disbelief. After touching Gao Ran's eyes, Tao's mother was discouraged and apologized to Lin Weixi with a shy face: "It's the old slave who got carried away and lost his decency, and offended Miss Lin. Please forgive me, Miss Lin." Sin."
Lin Weixi's delicate chin did not move, she just lowered her eyelids and glanced at Tao's mother, with a condescending attitude and a neither salty nor bland tone: "Get up. This time you just spoke rudely to me. I looked at His Highness King Yan I will not hold you accountable for the sake of my face. If you dare to criticize Marquis Zhongyong next time, no one will be responsible for the crime of disrespecting the heroes of the imperial court."
After finishing speaking, Lin Weixi didn't even bother to look at Tao's mother and Gao Ran, and walked straight forward. Gao Ran had rarely been ignored like this since she married into Prince Yan's Mansion. She was stunned for a moment, anger appeared in her eyes, but in the end she suppressed it and quickly chased after Lin Weixi.
"Miss Lin, since you don't want to arrange a yard, where are you going to stay now?"
Lin Weixi paused and immediately slowed down. She almost forgot that this was her first time coming to Prince Yan's Mansion, so she probably didn't know the way. Lin Weixi coughed covertly and said, "I'd like to thank the Crown Princess for taking me to the living room. Your Highness, Prince Yan, has been very kind to me. I have to wait for him to come back and pay him a visit."
Gao Ran had nothing to say. In fact, in just a few moments, Gao Ran's evaluation of Lin Weixi fell again and again. She now understands that this is not a white flower in the popular sense, but a person with some thorny methods. With such a rival suddenly moving in, it seems that Gao Ran still has a long way to go in the future.
The flames in Gao Ran's heart grew higher and higher. She lowered her head to hide the hostility and aggression in her eyes. When she raised her head again, she looked gentle and generous: "Miss Lin is indeed affectionate and righteous. When my father comes back and sees you with such a heart, I will definitely be very pleased. Miss Lin, come with me, the hall of the inner house is over here."
Lin Weixi was stunned for a moment before she realized that the "father" in Gao Ran's mouth referred to King Yan. Lin Weixi felt a little complicated in her heart, and at the same time she was a little unexplainably proud. Is Gao Ran trying to use his close relationship to demonstrate to Lin Weixi? Lin Weixi thought to himself, when it comes to closeness, one might not know who gave eye drops to whom.
Lin Weixi fell ill on the road and had a fever that night. Her brain was confused at the time, but she was extremely sensitive to the sounds and movements around her. She heard some footsteps in her daze. She opened her eyes with difficulty and saw King Yan sitting on the edge of the bed. He probed her forehead with a solemn expression, frowning and saying nothing. After a while, After meeting, he brought the doctor over. Lin Weixi was lying inside and could only hear the faint sounds of conversations outside. Even when discussing the condition, King Yan had people lower their voices.
For this kind of kindness that saved her life during her illness, Lin Weixi knew that she had made the right choice to idolize King Yan for so many years. Although it was his son, King Yan himself could not even find a reason to be angered by Lin Weixi. Less than. When Lin Weixi met King Yan for the first time, he was scolding him. His tricks were exposed later, he was caught without washing his face, and he was taught how to lose his temper... Lin Weixi had already done all the ugliness that she could think of, so Lin Weixi was very calm in front of Gu Huiyan, no. No matter how bad it gets, even if she clearly shows that she doesn't like Gao Ran, Gu Huiyan won't say anything more. If Gao Ran was smart enough to complain to King Yan...heh, then he might have accused whom.
Lin Weixi actually knew where the lobby was, but she took a wrong step and Gao Ran led her to the location. Gao Ran was about to lead Lin Wei Xi in when he was suddenly called away by a servant. Lin Wei Xi's years of upbringing could not allow her to wander around without her master, so she stood there and waited. She was wearing a fine velvet snow-white cloak. I was staring at the carvings on the window coffin boredly when a voice suddenly came from behind: "Sister Xi."
Lin Weixi turned around as she should, and happened to see a man stepping through the door and met her eyes. Hearing the call just now, his expression was obviously stunned.
Sister Xi?
Lin Weixi's expression froze when she saw the person coming. She quickly lowered her head to hide the strong emotions in her eyes. At this time, Zhou Maocheng had already walked quickly to Lin Wei Xi and said carelessly: "Sister Xi, your body makes you cough after taking only two steps. Why don't you go back to the house to recover? What are you doing standing in the wind?"
Lin Weixi was afraid that if he relaxed a little, his secret would be revealed, so he could only keep his face straight and look expressionless. She just glanced at the person indifferently, and then turned to Zhou Maocheng. Zhou Maocheng slapped his forehead and shouted: "Oops, I forgot to introduce you. This is the prince's only son, Gu Chengyao, the eldest son of our Prince Yan Mansion. He is not an outsider, so you don't need to avoid taboos."
"Why are you not an outsider?" Lin Weixi said awkwardly, without raising his head, and respectfully and coldly saluted Gu Chengyao, "Your Majesty."
Zhou Maocheng was a rough man and did not notice Lin Weixi's tight body. He enthusiastically introduced to Gu Chengyao: "Your Majesty, this is the woman mentioned in the prince's letter, Lin Weixi, the only daughter of Zhongyong Hou Linyong."
Accordingly, a woman's maiden name cannot be leaked, but Gu Chengyao is the son of King Yan. In Zhou Maocheng's mind, he certainly does not count as a maternal uncle, so he said Lin Weixi's name carelessly. It wasn't until Gu Chengyao heard Lin Weixi's full name that he felt the unspeakable shock in his heart.
It turns out her name is Lin Weixi, not that Sister Xi. Gu Chengyao couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, but in the presence of foreign visitors, Gu Chengyao ignored the complicated emotions in his heart and smiled politely at Lin Weixi: "I am Gu Chengyao. Since your relative sacrificed his life to save his father, then you are an honored guest of Prince Yan's Mansion. . From now on, you don’t have to be restrained. You can just live in Prince Yan’s Mansion. If you have any difficulties, just come to me."
Lin Weixi's face was still cold, but she smiled from the bottom of her heart. She felt pathetic when she smiled. Gu Chengyao said to a completely strange woman, "If you have any difficulties, just come to me." However, as Gu Chengyao's wife in her previous life, she was exhausted both physically and mentally from taking care of the family business. She worked very hard to arrange his daily life, and later she was overworked. He died of illness on the bed, and he never heard Gu Chengyao say even a single word. If you are in trouble, you can come to him.
The encounters and comparisons in life are so ridiculous.
This is King Zhao, that’s enough.
Seeing this, King Zhao arrogantly snorted: "Do you hear me, I am the prince! Whoever asked you to block my view of the boat deserves to be thrown off."
Listening to what he said, Lin Weixi felt angry. The servants of the Princess Mansion supported Lin Weixi and reminded: "Girl, King Zhao is still young and is inevitably playful. Let's take a look at the injured first. ”
Lin Weixi knew that now in the palace, the other party was still a lawless little prince. No matter how bad things he did, he could only teach the Gu family a lesson. She could not cause trouble for the princess palace. Lin Weixi glared at King Zhao angrily, then turned to look at the woman who was almost pushed down just now: "Madam, are you okay?"
This woman was only twenty-five or twenty-six years old. She had just recovered from the shock. When she heard that the other party was the well-connected King Zhao, she dared to pursue it. She quickly waved her hand and said, "I'm fine. Thank you, girl, for saving me. You don't need to say anything." ”
This woman was afraid that Lin Weixi would cause trouble if she spoke uprightly, so she quickly grabbed Lin Weixi and wanted to calm the matter. The movement here has attracted the attention of Queen Mother Qian on the other side, and Lin Weixi had no choice but to say: "Madam, you are pregnant. Does that matter just now? Otherwise, I will accompany you to ask for the imperial doctor?"
"No need." The woman wanted to refuse, but Lin Weixi looked at the other person's face and insisted on accompanying her down to find the imperial doctor. The woman's refusal was fruitless, and her lower abdomen was really uncomfortable. She didn't dare to stay in this place anymore, so she glanced at Lin Weixi gratefully and left with Lin Weixi.
After leaving the stands, the woman dared to take a long breath of relief, and her face became painful. Lin Weixi realized something was wrong and quickly asked people from the Princess Mansion to take Princess Shoukang's brand and go to the Imperial Hospital to find a doctor.
Lin Weixi helped the woman sit on a waterside pavilion. This place was specially set up for people to rest. Now everyone is accompanying the Emperor and Queen Mother to watch the dragon boat. The waterside pavilion is empty and very clean. Lin Weixi helped the woman sit up and looked at her face, she was really anxious.
She grew up in a big family and knew very well how dangerous pregnancy is for women. Her mother Wei died of a miscarriage, so what Lin Weixi hates the most is someone mistreating pregnant women. She was getting angry and kept looking outside: "Why hasn't the imperial doctor come yet?"
The woman frowned and half leaned on the armchair, her face turned pale. She saw Lin Weixi worried about herself and said movedly: "Thank you, girl. You and I have never met before, but you saved me without telling me, and now you still hire a doctor for me. Su Niang will remember the girl’s kindness and virtue for the rest of her life and repay her with a spring of water..."
