I Became The Stepmother of My Ex-husband

Chapter 21: First Assistant

Lin Wei Xi helped the woman to sit on a water pavilion. This place was originally set up for people to rest. Now everyone was watching the dragon boat with the Empress Dowager. The water pavilion was empty and very clean. Lin Wei Xi helped the woman to sit down, looking at the other's face, really anxious.

She grew up in a big family and knew how dangerous it was for a woman when they were pregnant. Her mother Wei shi died because of a miscarriage, so Lin Wei Xi could not stand someone treats pregnant women harshly. She was so anxious till she got angry, and kept looking outside: "Why the imperial doctor not here yet?"

The woman frowned her eyebrows and half leaned on the armchair, her face pale. Seeing Lin Wei Xi was anxious for her, she felt moved and said, "Thank you Miss. You and I never met before but you saved me without saying a word. Now still getting a doctor for me. The great kindness of miss, Su Niang will remember it for a lifetime, and repaying the favor many times more..."

"Don't say this, you were shocked before. The most urgent thing is to rest. As for repaying, there is no need to repay, anyone who sees this kind of thing would not just stand and do nothing. In the future, when the child is born safely, you can carefully bring him up till he grow up, consider that as the greatest repayment."

The woman's eyes were almost red: "Miss, you are such a good person, your kindness Su Niang will not forget. This woman's surname is Liu, and the boudoir name is Su Niang. I don't know how miss is called?"

Liu Su Niang, Lin Wei Xi didn't think much when she heard the name, and said, "My surname is Lin, and my boudoir name is Wei Xi."

Liu Su Niang heard this and she understood: "It turned out to be Miss Lin. A few day ago I heard that His Highness Yan Wang took Marquis Zhongyong's daughter to the capital, is it this miss?"

Lin Wei Xi was taken aback when she heard this: "You know me?"

"Where. Only heard my husband mention it, Su Niang just repeat what somebody else said." Liu Su Niang smiled bashfully and looked at Lin Wei Xi with pure amazement in her eyes, "Marquis Zhongyong with extreme loyaly serves the country. My husband often tell me that Marquis Zhongyong is a role model for his generation, but it's a pity that he didn't have the chance to meet him. Didn't expect today Su Niang have a blessing of three lifetimes, to meet Miss Lin, and Miss Lin is still this beautiful and outstanding first-class talent."

Lin Wei Xi also liked this weak and shy lady very much. When she mentioned about Lin Yong's deeds, her affection was even greater. Lin Wei Xi asked: "I didn't expect anyone in the capital to read about my father. Dare I ask who your husband is?"

"Miss Lin is polite, he is just an editor at the Hanlin Academy, whose name is Shen Ming Da." Liu Su Niang repeatedly declined, sincerely looked like her husband did not have a great official position, and she felt a little embarrassed in front of Lin Wei Xi.

Lin Wei Xi was stunned when she heard the name, and then repeated incredulously: "Shen Ming Da?"

Liu Su Niang was taken aback by Lin Wei Xi's sudden raised tone, and stared blankly: "Yes, what's wrong? Could it be Miss Lin know my husband?"

It's more than know, Lin Wei Xi had a deep memory of this name, like a thunder piercing the ear.

Before Lin Wei Xi was reborn she saw the heavenly book by chance. After she learned that she was just a character in the book, and a stepping stone cannon fodder, she almost scared out of her wits, so she didn't even bother to read the details in the back. But even so, Lin Wei Xi was in the end the daughter of court official, and she was raised by the princess for a long time. Her years of political intuition made her endure the nausea, skipping the sweet and greasy interaction between Gao Ran and Gu Cheng Yao, and found it later that the book had a lot of important elements. For example, what will happen in the next few years, and who will be the First Assistant after Zhang Xiao Lian?
