I Became The Stepmother Of My Ex Husband - Chapter 78
Lin Weixi only found out after he died once that he was just a female partner in a prostitute. “Yes.” Zhou Maocheng had a complicated face, let alone Gu Chengyao, even he, a veteran who had been with him for more than ten years, felt strange to see this scene.
Gu Chengyao turned his head and glanced at Lin Weixi. Unlike just now, his eyes were much more complicated this time. Lin Weixi is not afraid of other people’s inquiring gaze. In contrast, she is more concerned about another thing. Why does she feel that Gu Chengyao’s eyes just now vaguely reveal a little envy?
Lin Weixi thought afterwards, too, although Gu Chengyao was the only son of King Yan, he didn’t spend much time with King Yan. King Yan spent half his life in the army, fighting in the south and north, and his record is that the children at the street can say a few words, but I don’t want to spend much time in the palace of Yan Wang, and there is less time left for Gu Chengyao.
When Zhou Maocheng saw Gu Chengyao fell silent, he understood after another thought. He sighed in his heart, pretending to say lightly: “The wars in various places have been resolved, and there will be no more minor troubles in the future. The prince will not need to go out. This time the prince will enter Beijing. It must have been stable for a long time.”
The emperor left the solitary on his deathbed, and the emperor was young, and the capital could not be left unattended. If the Northwest rebellion had not been serious last time, the new dynasty needed to quickly quell the rebellion and deter the whole world, and King Yan would not personally lead his army on the expedition. But this time after the deeds of the Duo Huo Ti Ministry spread, I am afraid for a long time, no one dared to challenge the authority of King Yan and the sovereign state.
Gu Chengyao breathed a sigh of relief when he thought about it. It’s really rare to be in the same house with his father for such a long time.
Gao Ran had already dealt with the matter and returned. She was a little eager to walk. When she saw Gu Chengyao standing in the middle of the courtyard and Lin Weixi not far away, Gao Ran’s pupils suddenly shrank.
Gao Ran smiled calmly, with a smile full of greetings to Gu Chengyao, and then naturally stood beside Gu Chengyao as a mistress. Lin Weixi couldn’t help but sneered when she saw this, she was disdainful in her heart, and it was inevitable that she would bring some indifference and looseness on her face.
Zhou Maocheng came in with Gu Chengyao. He came in mainly for Lin Weixi. Now people have seen it, and the concubine has also returned. Zhou Maocheng, a foreigner who could not stay in the inner house of the Yanwang Mansion, left immediately.
After Zhou Maocheng left, there were only three of them left in the yard. For some reason, the servants in the yard suddenly felt an unspeakable depression.
Surprisingly, the elder son and his concubine have a deep affection. Although Miss Lin is an outsider, this is the first time she has come to the palace today and has no old grudges. Why does the atmosphere suddenly become tense?
It was Gu Chengyao who acted first. He was a man, and today King Yan entered Beijing. Some things in the outer courtyard required him to come forward. Gu Chengyao sent the female relatives into the house and left. Gao Ran dropped the guests and chased them out quickly. Lin Weixi watched Gu Chengyao and Gao Ran whisper through the shadowy screens. The two stood very close and whispered. Gao Ran always looked at Gu Chengyao tenderly. As he left, he gently stretched out his hand to wipe the dust off Gu Chengyao’s shoulder.
Lin Weixi was dazzling. She had extremely strict management of the Yan Palace when she was alive. No matter what room in the palace was cleaned every day, what kind of dust would Gu Chengyao get when he walked in the palace? Even if there was a demon wind today, the shoulders of Gu Chengyao were covered with ashes. Then the servant servants behind him have no hands, and they need to brush the dust?
Lin Weixi rolled his eyes fiercely inside, contrived and nauseous. Lin Weixi regretted it, she shouldn’t have been forced by King Yan’s majesty to agree to come to King Yan’s Mansion. If she watched it for a long time, she would have to be killed by this base person.
Fortunately, after all, Gu Chengyao was born and raised in a family. Now he is not used to being too intimate with his wife in person. He glanced at Gao Ran gratefully, then whispered something, and then strode out.
At this time, Gao Ran seemed to remember that there was another guest in the house. She walked to the second room, her cheeks flushed, just right to show the shyness of her newlyweds: “Miss Lin laughed.”
Lin Weixi laughed cooperatively, but rolled his eyes extremely.
For the rest of the time, Lin Weixi was sitting in the magnificent banquet room of King Yan’s Mansion, and from time to time he heard Gao Ran accidentally mention the dignity of the palace, the power of her family’s British government, and Gu Chengyao’s troubles caused by her. “. If it hadn’t been for the news of King Yan’s return to the mansion at a critical moment, Lin Weixi would have almost returned on the spot.
Gu Huiyan was introduced to the palace by the **** as soon as he entered Beijing. After seeing the emperor and the empress dowager Qian, he went out of the palace smoothly after comforting the mother and son. Until now, he is standing in his mansion, still carrying the fine dust on his way.
From the moment Gu Huiyan entered the door, the entire Yanwang Mansion was clearly alive. The people in the front courtyard and backyard were eager to run, yelling with joy and awe: “The prince is back!”
King Yan is back. After three years of absence from the Pangran Palace, he finally waits for the real master.
The inner courtyard also heard the noise outside, and Gao Ran quickly stood up, unconsciously showing nervousness: “The King Yan is back? Mother Tao, do you think I am okay?”
Gao Ran and her maid were in a hurry. Lin Weixi ignored the people behind her, and slowly got up and stood to the door. After seeing the people coming, she gave a standard Wanfu gift to the courtyard: “His Royal Highness.”
Gao Ran heard the voice and hurried out to salute. Gu Huiyan was questioning Gu Chengyao. Hearing a familiar voice, he stopped and looked at Lin Weixi in surprise: “Why are you here?”
Lin Weixi was questioned: “Didn’t you insist on bringing me to the palace?”
The expressions of Gu Chengyao and the old man in the palace behind changed. They were about to talk, but they heard Gu Huiyan sigh helplessly and said, “I asked why you didn’t go to rest. Didn’t I arrange for someone to send you back? Why did you let you stand? it’s here?”
It turned out that she would be wrong. Lin Weixi straightened up before Gu Huiyan could speak, and said indifferently: “I’m waiting for your peace.”
“to be frank.”
“Actually, I don’t know where I want to live. If you don’t speak, I don’t dare to leave.”
As soon as Gu Huiyan came out of Miyagi, he was unconscious and calm all the way. The coercion of King Yan was fully revealed, even Gu Chengyao was sincere and fearful when he saw it, and surrendered wholeheartedly. But when I arrived at Lin Weixi’s place, just a few words made Gu Huiyan smile at her mouth, and glanced at her clearly and funny: “You can talk, and if you are weak, you need to be quiet. Jingtan Garden is suitable. Carry things there.”
Jingdan Garden? Lin Weixi knew the structure of King Yan’s Mansion very well. She smiled and immediately thanked Gu Huiyan: “Xie Yan Wang.”
Gao Ran hurried out to greet Gu Huiyan, because she positioned herself to be gentle, generous, white and rich, so Gu Huiyan didn’t mention it, she kept squatting. But who would have thought that the famous Yan King would talk to a little girl about such trivial matters as her daily life, without caring about such an insignificance. Gao Ran couldn’t help but raised his head, glanced forward in surprise, and found that Gu Chengyao also had obvious surprise in his eyes. Obviously, King Yan was not an easy-going person, and he dared not show up after seeing him, let alone contradict him. However, Lin Weixi’s words were already disrespectful according to the default guidelines of the Yan Palace.
Gao Ran was a little bit savage, Jingdanyuan, she had long been optimistic about it, and planned to leave it to her son. Jingtan Garden and the courtyard where Gu Chengyao lived, were built symmetrically. The significance is self-evident. It was only because of the small number of people in King Yan’s Mansion that it was left unused. Lin Weixi, an orphan girl who is not known to live in the palace, why should she live there?
Gu Huiyan seemed to see other people only then. He glanced down, stepped into the main hall, and said flatly: “Get up all the time.”
Gao Ran just straightened up, just a meeting, Gao Ran felt unspeakable pressure. She finally realized that her imagination of the real rich family was still too shallow. King Yan is definitely not the rich generation she has seen in her previous life.
Even King Yan himself is the son of the noble, he just expanded his own glory many times. If Gao Ran was full of confidence in herself before, but now she hesitated, if King Yan is really dissatisfied with her background… Is it really useful for her to work hard to steward and express herself?
After Gu Huiyan showed up, he obviously didn’t show coldness and viciousness, but the whole hall was held in awe and awe. He scanned Lin Weixi and asked, “Have you all met each other?”
“Yes.” It was Gu Chengyao who was speaking. He took a step forward and knelt down to Gu Huiyan upright, took a high look, and knelt after him.
“The son is not filial, and he pays respect to his father.”
Gu Chengyao buckled his forehead deeply on the ground, and Gao Xi also bowed deeply. Lin Weixi gave way to the side to show that he avoided the kneeling ceremony of Gu Chengyao and his wife. But at the same time, Lin Weixi felt strangely happy. Although this kneeling was not aimed at her, Lin Weixi was standing now, and Gu Chengyao and Gao Ran were both kneeling, which was enough to make Lin Weixi feel refreshed.
The deal is done, Gu Huiyan did not embarrass Gu Chengyao and his newly married daughter-in-law. He stared at them for a while and motioned for them to get up. When Gao Ran was overjoyed, her maid immediately took the tea. She held the tea and put her hands across her eyebrows, and respectfully said: “Daughter-in-law offers tea to father.”
Gu Huiyan took it and lifted the lid of the tea lid. He just gestured and put it on the table without any intention of drinking tea. But this was enough for Gao Ran. She kowtowed to Gu Huiyan, and then she was helped to stand up by the dowry maid.
Lin Weixi stood by and watched the whole process. She was sneer in her heart, and suddenly heard Gu Huiyan call her name: “You are already ill. It is not good to stay outside for too long. Go back and rest.”
Lin Weixi’s goal was achieved, and he didn’t want to stand here and look at the pair of “Biren”, making trouble. She gave Gu Huiyan a resignation ceremony. Gu Huiyan nodded, seemingly worried, and added another sentence: “Jingdan Garden hasn’t lived in for a long time. If you have something to take advantage of, say as soon as possible, don’t bear it yourself, you know?”
Lin Weixi gave an “um” and couldn’t help asking: “King Yan, then my box…”
Gu Huiyan clearly moved his eyebrows, did not speak, but looked at her with consummate eyes. Lin Weixi smiled at Gu Huiyan, very faceless: “Of course I don’t dare to doubt His Royal Highness… It’s just this kind of thing, I’ll take it in my own hands.”
Gu Huiyan retracted his gaze and still did not speak, but a smile appeared in his eyes: “Indispensable for your things, go.”
Lin Weixi left with satisfaction. When the servants of the palace led Lin Weixi to Jingtan Garden, his expression was always horrified.
Lin Weixi suddenly changed from being an exploited wife to a privileged class of exploiters, not to mention how comfortable he was. As expected, Jingtan Garden did not live up to its superior position. Lin Weixi took a comfortable bath and washed the dust. After taking a nap, the servants outside came over cautiously and reported, “Miss Lin, are you awake?”
Someone thought that Lin Weixi didn’t know her, but Lin Weixi knew it very well. Lin Weixi looked at the completely different attitudes of these old servants of the palace, and smiled sarcastically, “What’s the matter?”
“The banquet is about to start. The prince said that if the girl wakes up, let the slave and maid invite the girl to the front hall for dinner.”
When King Yan is back, the regulation of dinner is naturally not sloppy. Lin Weixi’s clothes and hair accessories are all ready-made. There is no need to dress up. She stood up and said, “I see, let’s lead the way.”
When they got to the place, everyone stood there with breathlessness, and Gao Ran stood on his side and couldn’t sit down. Lin Weixi calmly saluted Gu Huiyan, and calmly walked aside and sat down. The posture was as if he was a member of this family.
Lin Weixi sat comfortably, while Gao Ran had to stand and serve the elders. This contrast was really uncomfortable. Gu Huiyan didn’t care. He frowned slightly when he saw Lin Weixi changed his clothes, and asked, “Does my head still hurt today?”
Obviously this is Lin Weixi’s problem on the road. She is weak and will have a headache when the wind blows. Be careful after freshening up. Lin Weixi shook his head and said, “It’s nothing big, don’t worry about it.”
Gu Huiyan frowned again after hearing this, but it was not the occasion to talk about it at the moment, and he didn’t say much. The dishes passed by the hands of many maids, and they were quietly delivered into the main hall one by one. Gao Ran took the public chopsticks and served them to everyone. It was inevitable that Lin Weixi had to be taken care of. Lin Weixi was upset in his heart, and on the surface he still declined: “Xie Shizi, the Shizi concubine is really polite.”
Gao Ran smiled stiffly: “If you are a wife, you have to teach each other and take care of the housework. This is what I should do.” Daughters can sit while eating, but it is not customary for a wife to serve the elders. But what is Lin Weixi? Gao Ran was really vomiting to death.
Gu Huiyan glanced at Lin Weixi indifferently, and said, “There are no outsiders, you don’t have to do this. Sit down.”
Gao Ran declined as usual. Gu Huiyan’s expression was faint, and Gao Ran suddenly felt a sudden shock in his heart, remembering what the old servant had said before: King Yan never said it a second time.
Gao Ran didn’t dare to use his accent anymore, just when Gu Chengyao looked at her, Gao Ran immediately sat down next to Gu Chengyao.
The meal was silent, Gu Huiyan just stopped, and the others immediately put their chopsticks. The palace still has a lot of special attention after dinner. After Lin Weixi rinsed his mouth and washed his hands, he heard Gu Huiyan questioning Gu Chengyao. The voice was neither happy nor angry, but there was a turbulent power hidden: “I heard from Gu Mingda that the palace has been The walk with Princess Shoukang’s mansion is loose, what’s the matter?”
Gu Chengyao was surprised to hear this: “Father actually picked the maid himself?”
“Yes.” Zhou Maocheng had a complicated face, let alone Gu Chengyao, even he, a veteran who had been with him for more than ten years, felt strange to see this scene.
Gu Chengyao turned his head and glanced at Lin Weixi. Unlike just now, his eyes were much more complicated this time. Lin Weixi is not afraid of other people’s inquiring gaze. In contrast, she is more concerned about another thing. Why does she feel that Gu Chengyao’s eyes just now vaguely reveal a little envy?
Lin Weixi thought afterwards, too, although Gu Chengyao is the only son of King Yan, he doesn’t spend much time with King Yan. King Yan spent half his life in the army, fighting south and north, and his record is that the children at the street can say a few words, but I don’t want to spend much time in the Yan Dynasty mansion, and there is less time left for Gu Chengyao.
When Zhou Maocheng saw Gu Chengyao fell silent, he realized after another thought. He sighed in his heart, pretending to say relaxedly: “The wars in various places have been resolved, and there will be no more minor troubles in the future. The prince will not need to go out. This time the prince will enter Beijing. It must be stable for a long time.”
The first emperor left the solitary on his deathbed, and the emperor was young, and the capital could not be left unattended.

Gu Chengyao breathed a sigh of relief when he thought about it. It’s really rare to be in the same house with his father for such a long time.
Gao Ran had already dealt with the matter and returned. She was a little eager to walk. When she saw Gu Chengyao standing in the middle of the courtyard and Lin Weixi not far away, Gao Ran’s pupils suddenly shrank.
