Chapter 198 Don’t worry about me.
There was a silence in the back hall, and no one seemed to have anything to say.
The excessive silence made the atmosphere a bit awkward, and of course the awkward person did not include Wei Ruo.
After a while, Wei Yichen found a topic and said to Wei Ruo: "Sister Ruo'er, your loquat ointment is very powerful. I heard from my classmates that many people's coughs have been cured." Wei Ruo said calmly
. Responded: "Yes."
Wei Ruo was not surprised at all. As long as it was a common cough caused by wind and cold, her loquat ointment could cure or relieve it.
If it is a cough with other complicated causes, it is difficult to say.
Wei Ruo had already made this clear when he sold the loquat paste.
"Sister Ruo'er is really powerful and knows a lot. If I were a man, my eldest brother might not be able to compare with you." Wei Yichen added.
"Brother is so complimentary." Wei Ruo replied politely.
Wei Yilin interjected from the side: "Even if she is a girl, the eldest sister is still as powerful now. She is now the richest person in our family. She can buy whatever she wants." Wei Yilin looked at Wei Ruo with an awkward look on his face, unable to explain
. It's envy, admiration, or complaint and anger.
Wei Yichen noticed something strange in Wei Yilin's expression and said, "Yilin, that's your eldest sister's fault." The implication was that
Wei Yilin should stop thinking about it. Men should never worry about their sisters' private money, even if they get married. It is also the woman’s own dowry.
"I know, I'm just curious about how much private money eldest sister has now."
Wei Yilin's eyes were firmly locked on Wei Ruo, as if he wanted to see something from her.
Speaking of this topic, Yun's expression was a little strange.
The Wei family knew that Wei Ruo was rich.
But from what they saw, Wei Ruo had at least one hundred taels of gold rewarded by the seventh prince, and more than a hundred taels of silver from the recently sold loquat paste.
Not to mention there are other rewards and gifts.
But the specific amount of money, Yunshi, Wei Yichen, Wei Qingwan and Wei Yilin don't know.
In contrast, the finances of Xiaowei Mansion are tight, and this year is also very tight.
If Wei Mingting hadn't been promoted one after another and received rewards, the Yun family really didn't know what to do this year.
But even if he was promoted and received some rewards, the expenses of the huge school captain's mansion were still very high. After being promoted, the New Year's gifts prepared by the Yun family for the capital could not be shabby and they cost a lot.
Although Wei Ruo's method of making money is not very recognized by people in the Wei family, the substantial amount of money in her hands is also enviable.
Especially Wei Qingwan, her feelings were not obvious in Xingshan County before, but after arriving in Fucheng, she saw a lot of rich nobles, and realized that she couldn't afford food and clothing.
She wanted to buy herself some more decent outfits, but she was short of money.
Wei Ruo felt everyone's gaze and slowly put down the tea cup in his hand.
"I have indeed accumulated a lot of money, but don't you all know how much money I have? I also learned mathematics when I was studying." The six arts of etiquette, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy and mathematics are better
. Teachers in private schools and colleges can teach.
Wei Yilin pouted: "Can't you just ask? Anyway, I didn't see you, so I know you have money to buy all kinds of delicious food." It's not that he wants to
eat braised food, but Wei Qingruo hates him for being so unwelcome. It made him feel depressed, and he didn't know what to do. Wei Yilin was like a child who lost his temper when he couldn't get candy. He knew that he couldn't do anything to Wei Ruo, but he just wanted to say a few words.
Wei Yilin's answer made Wei Yichen couldn't help but laugh: "I want to eat delicious food. Tell me what you want to eat. Can I take you to the street to buy it tomorrow?" "I don't want my eldest brother to accompany me, I want my eldest sister.
" Come on, don’t you, eldest sister, don’t have to take time off from school?” Wei Yilin looked at Wei Ruodao.
No one else expected that Wei Yilin would take the initiative to ask Wei Ruo to accompany him.
At first, when Wei Mingting ordered Wei Yilin and Wei Qingwan to be separated and Wei Yilin's teaching work was handed over to Wei Ruo, Wei Yilin was extremely resistant.
Now he actually asked to come with Wei Ruo?
"No, I still have things to do." Wei Ruo refused.
Yun's face, which had just calmed down, suddenly turned ugly again: "What do you have to do? Which family's lady is like you, running around all the time?" Seeing the difference in the atmosphere, Wei Yichen quickly said to Wei Ruo:
" Sister Ruo'er, although my mother often thinks differently from you, she always does it for your own good. My mother also hopes that you can have a good reputation and find a good marriage in the future." Wei Ruodao: "I never want anything good
. Marriage. I think it’s good to marry a farmer in the future. You don’t have to worry about me.”
Yun said coldly: “Even if you don’t think about yourself, you should think about your brothers and sisters in the family. If you do something too outrageous , It has affected the reputation of the Wei family girl, and Wanwan's marriage will also be implicated by you in the future!"
Wei Ruodao: "Then you should have thought about this clearly before you took me back to your home! You didn't ask me for my opinion when you took me back to your home. After you brought me back, you asked me to conform to what you had in mind. How fair were you to me? That was thirteen years! Not thirteen! Why do you expect someone who has lived in a different environment from you for thirteen years to conform? What are your requirements and standards?"
Wei Ruo asked this not only for himself, but also for the original owner.
The original owner did not have the memory and skills of his own life, so he grew up with limited knowledge and became arrogant and rude in the eyes of the Wei family.
The Wei family should have thought clearly about what kind of person she might be before taking her back.
Why didn't you think clearly before you brought her back, but after you brought her back, you had so many opinions on her because she didn't meet everyone's standards for a lady?
"Presumptuous!" Yunshi angrily yelled, "Now you are questioning the decision of your parents and your elders. Your life was given to you by us. Of course we have the right to decide where you should be!"
"Mother!"
Wei Yichen stood up and stood between Yun and Wei Ruo.
"Mother! Tonight is New Year's Eve."
Wei Yilin frowned, his eyes solemn and pleading.
Looking at her eldest son, the anger in Yun's heart was briefly suppressed.
After a long while, Mrs. Yun took a deep breath and said, "Everyone, please step aside!" After a
good New Year's Eve turned into this, she was no longer in the mood.
"Okay, my son will take his brothers and sisters away first, and my mother will have a rest early." After
Wei Yichen finished speaking, he turned around and motioned for his three brothers and sisters to leave.
Wei Ruoben didn't bother to argue, so he turned around and left.
Wei Yilin took Wei Yichen's hand and said, "Brother, did I say the wrong thing?"
Because he said he wanted Wei Qingruo to accompany him, his mother and Wei Qingruo had an argument.
