I Became The Stepmother Of My Ex Husband - Chapter 96
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 is Lin Weixi’s dowry in the past, Gao Ran’s maid hurriedly explained 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 just the game of chess in front of him, Lin Weixi raised his eyes, the surrounding gold and silver decorations, blue and white porcelain, and even the sandalwood furniture on the display all had a sense of familiarity.
Lin Weixi hurriedly retracted her gaze, she must be 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 doesn’t have a 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 when she heard this. She looked at Gao Ran impatiently. , Her voice still has a delicate, sickly aura, and she is not forgiving if she says it, “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 allude 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 style of chess with my brothers and sisters at home. I’m talking about this new style of game with Miss Lin, and 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 ignorant of 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 annoying.”
“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 who has played this way? 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. Lin Weixi also changed his previous style and became extremely aggressive, only offensive but not defensive. At first, Gao Ran thought of taking advantage of Lin Weixi’s eagerness to attack and chaos to take advantage of the opportunity to win, but she soon discovered that the phrase “offensive is the best defense” was correct. She was exhausted to contain 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.”
Seeing this, Gu Chengyao had to go over to hold Gao Ran’s arm and thoughtfully said: “Since you are not feeling well, go back quickly. The garden is windy, so be careful of the cold.”
Gao Ran looked at him gratefully, her eyes soft and tender. Lin Weixi got up slowly, looking at Gao Ran as if he was seriously ill, weakly and helplessly being helped away. Gu Huiyan still stopped where he was, looking back at Lin Weixi’s expression, and asked amusedly: “What’s wrong with you?”
“It’s nothing.” Lin Weixi bit his words very heavily, saying every word, “The wind is strong, I have a headache.”
Gu Chengyao hadn’t walked far. He paused when he heard this sentence. Then he heard Gu Huiyan’s clear laughter coming from behind him. Even though the voice was very soft, the joy in it was true: “Since the headache is hurt, then Go back and rest quickly.”
People from Prince Zhao’s Mansion walked out reluctantly and said, “It’s our little prince.”
Gu Huiyan’s eyes were sharp, and his voice implies Lei Jun’s power: “Let him speak for himself.”
Zhao Xiaowang stood up from behind his servants, his voice was inaudible: “It’s me.” After he said that, he indifferently mumbled: “Isn’t she not falling? Who will let her block this king? Look at the dragon boat.”
“Up until now, you haven’t realized your mistake.” Gu Huiyan looked at him coldly, “You inherited your father’s throne at a young age. I used to pity you for your failure in your childhood and I didn’t discipline you very much. It seems to have harmed you on the contrary, and you are so lawless as to condone you.”
King Yan is the head of all kings. Even if the former King Zhao stood here, he was afraid to raise his head when he was told by King Yan, let alone Prince Zhao, a nine-year-old child. Gu Huiyan has gone through several wars, and his whole body is the aura that has been experienced in the pile of dead people. When he saw Gu Huiyan’s cold and vertical and horizontal eyes, Prince Zhao was immediately scared and cried. The cry of the nine-year-old child was sharp and loud, and everyone’s stabbed ears hurt, but King Yan was standing here. Whoever dared to move, even the servants of Prince Zhao’s mansion did not dare to coax his little ancestor.
The child’s sharp cries resounded through Shuixie, and Princess Zhao hurried over. He almost broke her heart when she heard her son’s cry from a distance. She pushed the crowd away and rushed to her son’s side, clinging to her own lifeblood, and crying: “My son, you are weak since childhood, who made you cry like this because of your grievances? Pity your father went early. , Leaving only our orphans and widows, there is nowhere to talk about being bullied…”
