Who did she think was coming
"Miss Lin." Gu Chengyao did not enter the house, but said to Lin Weixi through the window, "Father asked me to pick you up."
Lin Weixi turned his head to look at the pattering rain curtain. The rain was coming fast, and the Xiyuan was full of water. The gray sky seemed to line up with the lake.
"Miss Lin?"
"It's raining so hard outside, even if you bring an umbrella, I'll inevitably get wet when I go out. It's better to wait here for a while, the rain in May won't last long."
Gu Chengyao frowned when he heard this proposal, it was not appropriate for them to be alone in the same room. Lin Weixi gave Gu Chengyao a cool look, and his tone was still rude: "Of course, I say this for myself, I am weak, and I will have a headache if I blow the wind a little, if it rains again, I am afraid I will not be able to go back today. If you don't want to wait, go out quickly. Anyway, the prince is in good health, so he doesn't care about the wind and rain."
Gu Chengyao won't be in trouble with himself. It's raining outside. If he has a choice, why should he go outside to get in the rain? Anyway, Lin Weixi couldn't leave, so it might be okay for him to wait in the waterside for a while.
Gu Chengyao asked people to put away the rain gear, while he stood under the eaves across a window, and did not enter the house and leave the same room as Lin Weixi. If it were an ordinary woman, Gu Chengyao's actions at this moment should be very gentleman, but for Lin Weixi... She only has indifference and boredom in her heart.
The two of them were so eerily silent. Lin Weixi, who was usually so articulate, was surprisingly silent at this moment. Gu Chengyao was quiet for a while, then suddenly said, "Thank you today."
Lin Weixi froze for a moment before realizing that Gu Chengyao was talking to her. Ordinary people sit opposite each other without speaking, and at least make eye contact, but neither of them. Gu Chengyao was still looking at the rain curtain of Haotang outside the house, and Lin Weixi just rolled his eyes and said angrily: "No need. I just can't see what other people say about King Yan, not for King Yan's mansion, nor for you. What kind of thanks do you say?"
Gu Chengyao smiled lightly, and finally looked back at Lin Weixi: "You seem to be very alienated from me. From the first time you met, you deliberately kept your distance from me, and your attitude was not friendly. We have never known each other before, and I should pay I won't offend you, will I?"
"Prince, you have been the favored son of heaven since you were a child. I'm afraid you have become accustomed to what you want. You haven't seen the real world outside. Today I will teach you how rambunctious women are in the folk. I don't know if you like someone. But do you need a reason to hate someone?"
Lin Weixi thought Gu Chengyao would be angry, but he didn't, just shook his head and smiled: "Your prejudice against me is really deep-rooted."
Gu Chengyao was not angry, and still politely spoke to her weak woman whose identity and status were far inferior to his. Lin Weixi's heart became more and more sad, he could be such a gentleman to a strange woman, but he was impatient with his former wife, even after hearing her complete sentence.
Perhaps the current atmosphere was too quiet, or the sound of rain outside the house gave people the illusion that Lin Weixi suddenly mentioned her past when she was Gao Xi. She thought she would never say these words in her life: "Sir, I am so unreasonable to you, but you still maintain your demeanor and listen to me with a good voice. You are a standard son of a noble family, and your upbringing is beyond reproach. But why do you seem to be completely different to the people you are close to?"
"A person close to me?" Gu Chengyao was very puzzled, "I respect my father, always abide by the duty of a son, and never boss the servants of the palace, and the prince and concubine..."
Gu Chengyao paused, his eyes became cold, and he did not hide the scrutiny in his eyes: "What do you mean? How did you know?"
"It's not interesting, just listen to the servants of the palace, just casually." Lin Weixi sat on the dark brown sandalwood chair, the light in the waterside pavilion was dark in rainy days, and her skin was crystal clear, her eyebrows and eyes were bright, almost in the dark emit light. She looked at Gu Chengyao, her eyebrows were as delicate as those in a picture, and her eyes were rare and focused: "The prince should be a gentleman, but he is too indifferent to his wife. I really want to know, why is this?"
Gu Chengyao looked directly into Lin Weixi's eyes. For some reason, he suddenly turned his gaze away and refused to continue to look at it: "No reason. She deceived me and deliberately destroyed my destined marriage. Why should I continue?"
"I heard this reason when you refused to go to Princess Shoukang's mansion." Lin Weixi's eyes crossed Gu Chengyao, looked at the vast rain line behind him, with a smile on his lips for some reason, "I still remember how it was King Yan. Curse you? This is what I want to tell you now. You take it for granted, did you talk to her openly and honestly when you made this decision? Do you really know the truth? Idealization pays the price.”
Gu Chengyao did not expect to hear such a speech: "You..."
Lin Weixi didn't wait for him to finish, and sighed very self-deprecatingly: "I wish I could see this day."
Gu Chengyao looked at Lin Weixi's profile, a smile filled his heart, and there was no need to say what he said just now. He smiled and said to Lin Weixi, "Then I wish Miss Lin all her wishes come true?"
Lin Weixi snorted softly, and Yu Guang didn't even bother to give one. After this incident, Gu Chengyao felt that the distance between him and Lin Weixi was much closer, and he also said what was in his heart: "Miss Lin, I didn't like you very much when I first came here, but now, I realize that my imagination may not be quite the same. I thought I wouldn't like a woman with your character, but after getting along for a long time, I realized that although your character is simple and straightforward, there's nothing cute about it." If Lin Weixi didn't target him like this, she would still be cute. A little more.
Lin Weixi became angry when he heard it: "Who wants you to like me? I am famous, handsome, rich in personal wealth, young and beautiful. If I want, some men will rush to marry me. Although it is simple and straightforward, there is nothing cute about me. Tell you that you don't need it! You try to love your princess and go."
Gu Chengyao did not expect such a big reaction from Lin Weixi, he smiled helplessly: "You are too hostile to Gao Ran."
"Heh, do you think she doesn't have anything to do with me? How did she tell you about me in private? I don't need me to help you remember?"
After hearing this, Gu Chengyao clenched his fists and coughed: "You are a girl who hasn't left the cabinet, how do you say these words?"
Lin Weixi was stunned for a moment when she was said, and then she reacted, and she was furious: "You are thinking about yourself, and you blame me?"
…
The conversation ended in Lin Weixi's unilateral jerk, the rain stopped, Gu Chengyao looked at Lin Weixi helplessly, and said, "Now that the rain has stopped, there will be no more rain, so you can leave?"
Lin Weixi snorted angrily, took the first step out of the door, and walked forward. Gu Chengyao was thrown back, he could only sigh, and quickly followed.
Gao Ran received a message from King Yan and asked her if she had seen Gu Chengyao. Gao Ran didn't know why, and after inquiring again, he knew that Gu Chengyao had gone to pick up Lin Weixi, and he hadn't come back yet.
Gao Ran's heart thumped, and when the rain eased a little, he immediately rushed towards Shuixie.
She had only walked halfway when she saw Lin Weixi and Gu Chengyao coming from the other corner. Gu Chengyao is handsome and tall, and Lin Weixi is beautiful and clear. The two of them came along with the misty water, which was even more beautiful than the idol dramas of the previous life.
Gao Ran keenly felt that something had changed between the two of them. The aura is elusive, but Gao Ran is intuition, and the relationship between the two is much closer.
Gu Chengyao saw Gao and walked towards her with a smile. Lin Weixi asked the people behind him, "Are you going to leave the palace?" After getting a positive answer, Lin Weixi just nodded and walked out without looking back. No nostalgia at all. Gu Chengyao noticed that Gao Ran was looking straight at Lin Weixi's back. He lowered his head strangely and asked Gao Ran, "What's the matter with you? Why do you seem a little lost?"
"It's all right." Gao Ran reluctantly calmed herself down. She followed the many attendants to the outside of the palace, and as soon as she raised her head, she could see Lin Weixi's figure. Although Lin Weixi is slender, his figure is not a straight line, but a slender waist, slender shoulders and neck, and he can see the infinite romance just from the back. Gao Ran looked at it like this, and the thoughts in his heart became more and more clear.
Lin Weixi couldn't stay any longer, no matter what, she couldn't let her continue to live in Yanwang's mansion.
Gao Ran suddenly remembered that the Qian family Ruo Ruo Ruo Ruo had nothing to inquire about today, the Queen Mother Qian finally made it to the Queen Mother after all her hard work, and the Qian family also turned around. Now they are the most respectable relatives in the capital. The son of the Qian family fell in love with Lin Weixi. No matter from any point of view, it was a blessing for Lin Weixi, even if the second son of Qian wandered a little and spent some good sleep.
There is no reason to refuse, even if Lin Weixi went to move the eldest princess Shoukang, but Shoukang, an old man in the sunset, dare to fight against the queen mother's family
Gao Ran told herself that she was doing it for Lin Weixi's sake. To be able to marry the Queen Mother's nephew, or the wife of the main room, Lin Weixi, as an orphan with nothing, what a good marriage it must be.
"Don't worry, Concubine Shizi, the old servant has watched it three or four times, and every servant is trembling and dare not neglect their duties."
Gao Ran breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, this is the first time King Yan has returned to the mansion, and I will go to the front hall to visit the father-in-law in a while, so I can't go wrong no matter what."
Tao's mother sighed and said: "Don't worry, Concubine Shizi, since you entered the door, you have not done anything clearly, and you have treated people with generosity and cared for the old servants. What's that called... Oh yes, pension. No one in the palace does not say hello, there is no such perfect person in the world. Although the king of Yan is high and powerful, he is the most sensible. He took care of you so well, he only felt relieved when he saw you."
After hearing this, Gao Ran did not refute, but slightly angrily said to the nurse: "Mother Tao, what are you talking about, how can I be perfect. Don't say it like this, it will make people laugh."
"How can this be a joke! Although the old slave is your grandmother, these words are really not the old slave's boasting. When the princess was still a girl, everyone praised it. Learning the piano can play lively minor tunes. Chess can come up with a fresh backgammon, even if you follow the old lady to worship the Buddha, you can learn by yourself without a teacher, and casually say the mysterious Buddhist principles, and the story you told the young master when you were ten years old, what agarwood saved the mother, the fisherman and Yu, how old you were at that time, you were able to make up such a story, even the reincarnation of the fairy in the sky will never be more perfect than you. Concubine, this is not the old slave who said this alone. The maids in the house privately say that you are the reincarnation of the Nine Heavens Xuannv, that is, you are from a poor background, otherwise, why would you be wronged to be the successor!"
Gao Ran was humble, but when Tao's mother said it, she didn't stop her, she just listened with a smile, and when it came to her birth and succession, Gao Ran's smile stiffened for a while, and then she was relieved. So what if you were from a lower background, what if she was a concubine, and a concubine was never a determining condition for evaluating a woman. As long as she married well, what if she was a concubine or a concubine
Moreover, even the direct daughter may not be able to live well. She is of noble birth but not liked by men, and she will go her own way to death.
Gao Ran didn't want to mention another person on such an important day, which would only add bad luck. Gao Ran's face turned cold, and she said coldly to Mother Tao, "Mother Tao, you have overstepped. My elder sister is my eldest sister and the first wife of the prince. The dead are the greatest. I have always loved Sister Chongxi very much. I know you don't have this. I mean, but when the prince and others hear it, they will inevitably think that I am a concubine who disrespects my sister-in-law and will only cause trouble. You must not say such things again, you know?"
Tao's mother and Gao Ran's dowry maid were indignant, and Ningfu said: "Prince Shizi, the eldest miss will not give you a good face when you are at home, and when you get married later, your eyes are higher than the top, even so, you are always smiling. Ying, sincerely serve her as a sister. Miss, you are too kind, so you will be bullied. "
"Okay, don't talk about it." Gao Ran interrupted the maids lightly and said, "The lord has been away from home for three years and is coming back today for the first time. We must make arrangements. The lord's carriage should be coming soon, you guys Come with me to the second door and wait."
Tao Mama and Ning Fu responded and supported Gao Ran to the Chuihua Gate. Tao's mother nagged as she walked: "Yan Wang hasn't returned to Beijing for three years. When the prince comes back and sees that the house is in good order, he will be very lucky to marry such a smart daughter-in-law. I want the old slave to say it, under the sun. As long as they have clear hands and eyes and are not blinded by the prejudice of their descendants, they will like the three girls."
Without waiting for Gao Ran to speak, Ningfu hurriedly said, "Isn't it true, Concubine Shizi is simply a reincarnation of a fairy, and no one doesn't like it. It's just a pity that Wangye was delayed on the way and didn't catch up with the wedding of Concubine Shizi and Shizi."
Speaking of this mother Tao is also very regretful, her position is skewed towards Gao Ran, of course she thinks that Gao Ran is fine. And it was a big regret that King Yan, the head of the family, couldn't catch up with Gao Ran's wedding, but this regret was not from Gao Ran, but from King Yan's mansion.
Seeing that there was no one left or right, Mother Tao whispered to Gao Ran: "Prince Prince, I heard that the prince wanted to rush back to attend the wedding of the prince, so he deliberately left the army and walked alone for this reason. It's all to blame for one of the subordinates on the road. My daughter is ill, which delays the prince's trip."
Gao Ran originally thought it was inappropriate to discuss Prince Yan in Prince Yan's mansion. He might gossip if he was heard, but the wedding without the husband's parents was indeed a thorn in Gao Ran's heart. Now he seems to hear the reason, and Gao Ran is curious. After that, he didn't stop drinking Tao's mother, but let her continue talking.
"My subordinate's daughter? Who is this person, and why is he in the prince's team?"
"I don't know, I heard that she was still an orphan. Her father died in order to save the prince, so the prince pulled her everywhere. This incident was spread in the capital some time ago, and it seems to be called... Oh yes, Marquis Zhongyong."
When Gao Ran heard this, he lost interest. An orphan girl who had lost both parents and came to the capital to defect to the palace, what a little white flower appeared. Just hearing this, Gao Ran already imagined what kind of person is coming.
Gao Ran has vowed to marry the rich second generation since her previous life. The wedding should be especially grand, and she must overwhelm all female classmates. Unfortunately, her dream of marrying the rich second generation in her previous life had an accident before she realized her dream of marrying the rich second generation. Bai Fumei was overjoyed. Gao Ran secretly rejoiced that under the skin of her child was the heart of an adult, otherwise, she would have been beaten to death by the prince's mansion who stepped on the ground and held it high.
Later, her vicious mother-in-law committed suicide, and Gao Xi, who robbed her of her marriage, also fought back, and was not favored by her husband, so she died early to make room for her. Like all heroines, Gao Ran's status as a prostitute was only tempered. In the end, she married the most powerful husband-in-law, a second-generation Quan who had a detached family background.
