Chapter 100 Part 2: Sisters

"Why you cannot see other people well, don't you have enough?" Gao Ran was very emotional and almost screamed. But her voice was already hoarse, even if roaring, her voice was still low and fuzzy: "It was like this when I was in the Guo Mansion. You can't see me being liked by grandmother and father, so you try to destroy it. Cousins liked to come and talk to me, you put a cold face on the spot. It's you who are not likable, but you are hostile to me because of this. Don't you think you are pathetic?"

 

"Shizi Consort, you may think too much." Lin Wei Xi said coldly, "I have never been to Guo Mansion before getting married, nor have I disturbed your limelight. Although I don't know what you are talking about, I still want to remind you, don’t take yourself too seriously. You feel that other people are targeting you, in fact, cannot say that other people are so absorbed in learning the Four Arts that they have no time to talk to you."

 

"Already like this, you still refuse to admit it?"

 

"What should I admit? I am now Yan Wangfei, previously Marquis Zhongyong’s daughter. Everything is already clear, what needs to be covered up?"

 

"You..." Gao Ran was angry, but now she recalled that although Lin Wei Xi's words were fierce, she did not reveal any information about being reborn. Gao Ran understood the inside story and knew what Lin Wei Xi was talking about, but in the ears of others, this was just a mother-in-law teaching her former daughter-in-law.

 

Gao Ran's eyes fell on Lin Wei Xi's plain white shirt and skirt, and smiled ironically: "Since you are Marquis Zhongyong's daughter, why do wears plain clothes? Marquis Zhongyong's three-year filial piety is already over long ago. "

 

Lin Wei Xi said lightly: "Everyone has their own preferences. I like to wear lighter color clothes in summer. What is it to you?"

 

Gao Ran was dumbfounded. When a person wanted to defend herself, she could find many logical reasons. She didn’t want to admit it. What’s to be done if other people could catch her? However, what the facts were, this pair of former sisters and the current mother-in-law and daughter-in-law knew very well.

 

The two of them had been deeply opposed since childhood. As Gao Xi and Gao Ran grew up, they had to compete for more and more resources, father's favor, grandmother's reliance, family, reputation, marriage... When Gao Xi was young she was squeezed out of breath by her precocious shu younger sister, but why Gao Ran still blamed her like this? No matter how Gao Ran relied on adult intelligence and self-control to release her brilliance, Gao Xi could catch up immediately.

 

The two of them were completely at odds because of Wei shi's death, and no one thought of the other as sisters. When they were young, they were fighting for their father's attention. When they grew up, they were entangled by the same man. If it hadn't been for that unexpected event, Gao Xi would be married high, and Gao Ran might not be able to manage her husband's family properly just by relying on her own tenderness. Both of them would have a new life of their own.

 

But there were so many ifs in the world, one step wrong, the other steps followed, and now, no one could go back.

 

Speaking of the death of Duke Yingguo Shizi, Lin Wei Xi felt depressed. The death of her previous life’s father was brought up by her biological sister, and even used this matter to attack her, no one would feel good. The two were silent for a moment, and by chance agreed to change the subject.

 

"Why are you back? You know that you are related to Yan Wang, how can you still dare to marry him? You do this... don't you feel guilty?"

 

In fact, Gao Ran was just bluffing. She herself didn’t think there was anything wrong with it, they didn’t have a real blood relationship. If you divorce, can you still control who your ex-wife marry? However, Lin Wei Xi was an ancient woman. In ancient times, the ethics of chastity was extremely important. Gao Ran deliberately asked this in order to bury a thorn in Lin Wei Xi's heart, so in the future she would feel guilty, would feel ashamed, and then gradually turned away from Yan Wang.

 

Gao Ran herself had a bad life, so she tried to make Lin Wei Xi's relationship cold, and unable to get her husband's love.

 

Who knows, Lin Wei Xi was very calm: "Although Yan Wang and I are separated by a generation, but first, an unmarried man and woman getting married does not violate the court order. Second, although I am the daughter of his subordinates, and on the surface a little bit awkward, it’s not really a big deal."

 

Even if Lin Wei Xi bit to death her surname was still Lin. After all, her identity was impeccable. Whoever checks could only find out that she was Lin Yong's daughter.

 

Gao Ran was very angry, she almost found it laughable: "Then why are you entangled with Shizi again?"

 

"Watch your mouth." Lin Wei Xi glanced at her displeasedly, her skin was as white as snow, such a glance made her looks even more like a goddess high above, far unattainable. Lin Wei Xi said: "Shizi and I always abide by the etiquette. Since I passed through the door, I have never cared even a strand of his hair. What does it matter to me if you husband and wife are estranged?"

 

Gao Ran stared at Lin Wei Xi in a daze. After a while, she suddenly lowered her head and laughed, gradually turned her head up to the sky and laugh out of control. Gao Ran almost laughed out of her tears. Her laughter was sharp and piercing, but she didn't know who she was laughing at: "Pitiful ah pitiful, you are worried, you can't sleep at night, and you can hardly let yourself go, but she doesn't even know. Maybe she still hates you for your fickleness and will never forgive you for the rest of her life."

 

Gao Ran said these words without head or tail, Lin Wei Xi frowned subconsciously when she heard this. Lin Wei Xi didn't want to know what exactly this sentence mean, and who Gao Ran was referring to. After seeing this Gao Ran's side today, the relationship for half a lifetime between the two of them had been broken, and she would never come to see Gao Ran again in the future. Lin Wei Xi didn't want to stay any longer, turned around and left.

 

Lin Wei Xi walked through the main hall, already put her hand on the door, and could still hear Gao Ran crying and laughing, talked like crazy: "To seek and yet cannot get the white moonlight, to get and also lose the cinnabar mole. Men, only what you can’t get is the best..."

 

Lin Wei Xi had already pushed the door open, and Wan Yue appeared in front of her with a slightly worried face. Lin Wei Xi didn't hear the latter words.

 

On the way back, Lin Wei Xi couldn't help feeling depressed. When she was young, she regarded Gao Ran as an imaginary enemy. After rebirth, she learned that she was only Gao Ran's foil and stepping stone, which was even more disappointing. When she finally came out of the quagmire of self-doubt, and met the person she wanted to stay together, Gao Ran was no longer enough to be her opponent. Was Gao Ran's current situation pitiful? Of course pitiful. But this was Gao Ran's self-inflicted punishment. When she harmed others, she should have thought that if she failed, she might be miserable for the rest of her life.

 

There was a strong contrast between the present and the past, and the old person from her past and present life has stepped into a semi-crazy state. All these ups and downs of life let people sighed, and Lin Wei Xi couldn't help but feel depress.

 

When she returned to Jingcheng Courtyard, as soon as she entered the door Lin Wei Xi saw someone standing with his back to her. The maids around wanted to say but did not dare to say and signaled to her that it had been a while since Yan Wang came.

 

Gu Hui Yan asked slowly: "Where have you been?"
