I Became The Stepmother Of My Ex Husband - Chapter 99
People around heard that a quick-mouthed lady couldn’t help but ask: “Miss Lin? Who is this?”
“A daughter of my father’s old friend. She is also pitiful. Both of her parents are dead and helpless. Her father pityed her for being alone, so he took her to the palace.”
The husbands will have a score as soon as they hear it. The daughters of the old friends who are sent to the fence, both parents have died, and their lives are pitiful. These masters laughed and said to Gao Ran: “The concubine of the world is really careful and kind, and always remembers the daughter of the old friend.”
Zhongyong Hou Linyong was silent after a blizzard in the capital of the powerful and powerful. These ladies and wives with higher eyes still remember who Zhongyong Hou was, and they would not think in this direction when they heard the name Lin. I really thought this was a pitiful cousin-like character.
The British lady-in-law has a reputation for this. Her eyes are no longer young, and her tone is indifferent, and her tone is light and scrutinized: “Is it the orphan that King Yan brought back some time ago? It is not easy for you to marry into the palace. You will get pregnant and give birth soon. It’s important to have an offspring, and you don’t have to bother about it.”
The British lady-in-law didn’t care much about this orphan. A nominal daughter of the Marquis, who had no vision and knowledge, just set up a place to live, isn’t it just a sentence? Obviously, the British Madam would think so, all because she had never seen Lin Weixi, nor had she been to the Yanwang Mansion.
Gao Ran originally said it to show his benevolence and ability, but he was embarrassed by the British father-in-law. Gao Ran secretly scolded the British father-in-law for feudal relics, but she and this cheap grandmother were just a love of face, anyway, she didn’t treat the British government as her own home, and just put on her face.
Gao Ran thought this way and said, “This girl Lin has a very pitiful background. Both her parents have died and she has no uncles or relatives. She had been staying at her aunt’s house before. Later, when the prince saw her alone, he took her to the palace. I I was loved by my grandmother and father since I was born. I didn’t know that there were such poor people in the world. When I saw Ms. Lin, I felt more and more compassionate by the family. Being able to have my grandmother’s support is the virtue of God to me, so I want to support me more Miss Lin one or two, if the Buddha sees it, Xu Neng will benefit his grandmother and younger brother.”
As soon as this remark came out, the British father-in-law repeatedly called good children, and the surrounding ladies also praised Gao Ran for her filial piety. Gao Ran pursed his lips and smiled. After refusing a couple of times, he turned around and asked Ningfu softly: “What about Miss Lin, why have you disappeared in a while? It just so happens that all the ladies are here. I will introduce Miss Lin to my grandmother and Ladies.”
Gao Ran remembered her previous life. When she was looking for a relationship to mix into a rich second-generation party, Bai Fumei who took her to the banquet introduced her to others in this way. Gao Ran was anxious and joyful at that time, thinking that she was accepted by that class. Until today, the same scene has happened to her. Gao Ran did not know what was accepted by another class. When introduced in that way, it was a matter in itself. Kind of condescending charity.
Gao Ran looked around but didn’t find Lin Weixi. Seeing her like this, the ladies and wives around also looked around: “Xiyuan is a royal forbidden garden, why are you running around…”
They were looking around when suddenly a voice came from behind: “The dragon boat hasn’t started yet, what are you looking for?”
When everyone turned around, they all smiled when they saw them: “Happy ancestors.”
The people in the British government were unhappy, but they still greeted the princess Shoukang: “please hello to the princess.”
The princess Shoukang walked slowly with the help of others. She smiled. Although there are traces of years on her face, she is much more energetic than before, and the whole person looks alive, as if she is several years younger. She smiled and asked, “From a distance, it’s up to you to talk about it. Who are you talking about?”
Gao Ran hurriedly wanted to answer, but was intercepted by another quick-mouthed young lady: “The concubine Shi Zi is talking about the woman brought back by His Royal Highness Yan King two days ago. I heard that both her parents have died and she is staying in the palace. The woman is very compassionate. We are boasting the filial piety of the concubine.”
“Oh?” Princess Shoukang gave Gao Ran a cold look, with an undisguised mockery in her eyes, “If I hadn’t recognized Girl Lin, and listened to the description of Concubine Shizi, I thought King Yan had brought another person back. .”
It is a well-known secret that the Grand Princess Shoukang and Gao Ran and the British government do not deal well with each other, but no one expected that Shou Kang would not show his face in such a big scene today. Everyone’s laughter stagnated, Gao Ran was highly sought after in the capital, but she couldn’t speak in front of Princess Shou Kang. Princess Shou Kang is Gao Ran’s nominal maternal grandmother, and Gao Ran has no qualifications to connect.
The British madam’s face sank. She and Shou Kang were old monarchs of the same generation. If Shou Kang were not for the status of a princess, how could the British madam, who had good children and grandchildren, be afraid of her. However, having said that, the identity of the princess is not a joke. The British lady-in-law is not happy, and she has to turn around and say: “The third girl is sincere, what is the matter with the princess, and she is angry with the third girl? ”
Shou Kang sneered and ignored him. When he turned around, he looked kind and kind, patted the hand of the person beside him lovingly, and said: “Since you talked about her, then I will show you my new My granddaughter, sister Xi.”
When I heard this name, many familiar ladies were stunned, Sister Xi? They looked at the woman next to Princess Shoukang and found that this young girl was beautiful and shiny. Although she had never seen it before, she was obviously not the eldest lady Gao Xi from the British government.
Lin Weixi took a step forward and greeted everyone with a smooth flow: “Madam Wanfu.”
Seeing the doubts of the crowd, Princess Shoukang smiled and said, “This child was brought by King Yan. The first time I saw her, I fell in love with her. It was no different from my own granddaughter. I don’t know what happened, only a few days later. I didn’t see her, just like a few years later. I called her away as soon as I saw her. Sister Xi’er told her that she couldn’t leave without saying goodbye, so I brought her to talk to the concubine Shizi. Follow me, there is no need for the imperial concubine to look after her.”
The honorable ministers of the capital gave Gao Ran a face, but Princess Shoukang obviously didn’t need it. She was ridiculed by Princess Shoukang in front of everyone. She was very uncomfortable and said, “It is a good thing that grandmother and Miss Lin have a relationship. I was kind enough to let a few ladies see Miss Lin, but I didn’t expect to be misunderstood by my grandmother.”
“Good intentions? Sister Xi can’t use your kindness.” Shou Kang snorted coldly and said, “She was bereavement when she was young, but her father was named Zhongyonghou by the court. It’s easy to buy a property anywhere. King Yan just told me two days ago that Sister Xi was only temporarily staying in the palace. Why did she get so bad when she got here?”
The eldest princess is training juniors, and the ladies quietly raised their eyebrows, and they all smiled and bowed their heads subtly, without interjecting. The British lady-in-law couldn’t see it, and frowned: “The third girl is obviously kind, I am afraid that the princess is prejudiced, so it seems that nothing is right. Moreover, what sister Xi, how is she called this name?”
One bite, one sister Xi, the British lady-in-law was frightened, but if she knew it was impossible, she thought Shou Kang was calling Gao Xi.
What is her name? Lin Weixi was sad when he heard that his former grandmother could say such a thing, and the smile on his face also became deserted: “The little girl’s name is Weixi, since my dad has called me sister Xi. Listen to Mrs. Guoguo. Means, is my name incorrect? But this is what my father left. Now that father has passed away, as a child, how can he change his name?”
“Change her name, she has a ghost in her heart, can she still manage other people’s names?” Shou Kang glanced at the British father-in-law with a bad tone, “Zhongyong Hou sacrificed his life for the country. It was drafted by the emperor and the first assistant. Loyal and brave men. Now there is only this drop of blood left in the Lin family. Take away the domineering style of Mrs. Guo Gong. You can’t bully this kind of martyr’s widow.”
The British lady-in-law has a blue face, and her reputation for bullying orphans and widows is the most unsound, and if the other party is the child of a martyr, she will be impeached accidentally. The British government is indeed gaining momentum now, but most of this is due to the light of the in-laws of the Yan Palace. The Gao family’s influence in the court is very flat. The British public wife has been tight for a long time, but still does not dare to risk his son’s career. , I could only look softly, and said: “I just heard the name familiar, and I just mentioned it casually. How did Miss Lin understand it as a name change? I just sent a white-haired person to a black-haired person last year. So I went, I regretted it, and I was in a daze when I heard a familiar name.”
Lin Weixi lowered his eyes, turning his eyes with disdain and sadness. It’s so funny that the British grandma used the dead as a shield. She was attacked by her grandmother with her own death.
Seeing this, the lady standing next to her hurriedly rounded up the field: “It’s OK, it’s all a misunderstanding, just let it go. This girl is good-looking, this is the first time I have seen such a beauty.”
Lin Weixi’s mood was ups and downs, and when he saw this, he just pretended to be shy and lowered his head, hiding the strong resentment and anger in his eyes. Princess Shoukang did not want to be unpleasant on a good day. What’s more, she is still in the palace now, she also followed with a smile and said: “Sister Xi just came out of filial piety the day before yesterday, and this is the first time she came out to walk around. It made you laugh. .”
“What did the princess say?” The ladies looked at Lin Weixi with eager light in their eyes. It turned out to be the widow of Zhongyonghou, who was very hot in the capital some time ago. I didn’t expect that I was so beautiful and easy to talk. Now I have the eyes of the eldest princess, which is amazing. Listening to Gao Ran’s narrative just now, they really thought it was a shameless settlement.
Princess Shoukang patted Lin Weixi’s hand affectionately, and yelled at the crowd: “You can’t despise her just because she doesn’t have relatives. Later, when she gets married, I have to carry out the bottom of my pressure box to her. Support the facade.”
Of course, everyone smiled and talked about ingenuity, but the wife who has a son in the family is already active. Although Lin Weixi’s background is not high, he can’t resist the rich dowry of others. She can take away the assets of the entire Hou Mansion. She has the eldest princess to add makeup and looks like this… If he marries back to the mansion in the future, the loyal and brave Lin family The name is also a very useful bargaining chip.
Seeing that the Princess Shoukang had achieved her goal, she smiled, leaving two polite words and took Lin Weixi away. From start to finish, Princess Shoukang didn’t make much sense, and she and the British government didn’t even bother to pretend to have a face.
Gao Ran forced a smile. After the people walked away, a lady casually complained to Gao Ran: “The concubine is so humble as you said. I really thought this was an ordinary girl. After loyalty, Lord Hou Widow, this status is okay, but she has no relatives, which is a bit of a disadvantage. But she looks good, and these flaws are nothing.”
Gao Ran’s eyes were already very cold when he heard it, and the other lady also echoed: “Isn’t it, I’ve been in the capital for so many years, how many people have come and gone, this is the first time I have seen such a talented person. Linglong and thorough. It’s youth, so young! Hey, what’s wrong with you, concubine?”
Gao Ran turned his head and smiled gently: “It’s nothing, thinking of Shizi’s instructions before going out, I was a little distracted.”
Speaking of Gu Chengyao, the ladies immediately put down Lin Weixi and talked about the Yan Palace with great interest. Gao Ran focused on himself again, and then hummed softly in his heart. Gao Ran intended to hold down Lin Weixi’s first appearance, as long as the first impression of these ladies was destroyed, Lin Weixi would not want to marry a good person in the future. However, I didn’t expect that Lin Weixi would catch up with Princess Shoukang so soon, and Shou Kang was willing to come forward to introduce Lin Weixi. The first introducer to enter the social circle is the most important. But if there is no princess Shoukang’s support, how can these high-eyed officials and wives accept Lin Weixi’s beautiful and intimidating girl.
