Chapter 454 Wei Yichen High School Huiyuan
She thought that her adopted daughter, who she thought had the same heart as her, has now become strange and difficult for her to understand, while her biological daughter, who has always been at odds with her, is cold and unsympathetic to her. It's as if she is a failed mother.
Mrs. Yun wanted to tell Wei Ruo something more about her preparation for marriage, but the words came to her lips and she couldn't say them out because of Wei Ruo's cold and indifferent face.
Wei Yilin ran to Wei Ruo's side and continued the topic that was left unfinished in the morning.
"Sister, I have saved more money. This time I want to buy you something more valuable! Can I buy you jewelry and nice clothes and materials?" "Where do you get more money?"
"
Then You don't have to worry about it. Anyway, tell me what you want and I'll buy it for you!"
Wei Yilin planned to sell some of the valuable things he had hidden in his possession. Although he didn't know how much money those things were worth, he was willing to do so. All changed to add makeup to the big sister.
"I don't lack anything, the dowry is all ready." Wei Ruodao.
"If you are not in need, you are not in need. I want to buy it for you!"
Wei Yilin's intention to please Wei Ruo was obvious, and he almost had the word "please" carved on his forehead.
Yun said: "It's rare that your brother has such a heart for you, just ask him to buy you something."
Wei Ruo did not answer, but changed the subject: "Any news about father recently?"
Zai Yun Here, the only topic Wei Ruo is interested in is the news about Wei Mingting.
Yunshi replied: "I just received a letter from your father yesterday, telling me some recent situations. Your father rarely mentioned things in the military camp to me. It is rare that he mentioned some things this time." Yunshi continued
: "That's why I'm even more worried about your father. Everyone in the capital is saying that if they can't put an end to the Japanese pirates this time, they will blame the anti-Japanese army." Wei Ruo couldn't help but frown. The anti-Japanese army didn't have enough equipment and food
. Can defend but cannot attack, always in a passive state.
It is not easy to repel the Japanese pirates most of the time. It would be too difficult for them to ask them to beat the Japanese pirates until they can no longer attack and eliminate further trouble.
"Can the imperial court send more troops?" Wei Ruo asked.
"I haven't heard anything about it, and there's been no movement in terms of grain and grass. It's probably because the grain income in various places is not very good, so I want to let Taizhou Prefecture solve it on its own." Yun said with a sad look on his face.
Wei Ruo fell into deep thought. Even though Taizhou Prefecture had a good harvest last year, it was still difficult to rely entirely on Taizhou Prefecture to be self-sufficient.
If the imperial court really does not send more troops and food, then the anti-Japanese army may not be able to sustain itself without waiting for the imperial court to investigate.
Hearing this, Wei Yilin couldn't help it: "How can this be? Dad and the others are working so hard to fight, why don't they arrange food and grass?" Yun sighed: "On the one hand, the food harvest has been poor in
various places in the past two years, and the imperial granary has also been Not rich; on the other hand, maybe the imperial court felt that the Jurchen tribe was a greater threat, so it wanted to put more troops and food into resisting the Jurchen tribe." If Wei understood
this truth, the Japanese pirates were just a group of bandits who burned, killed, and looted. Although hateful, it does not threaten the rule of the imperial court.
The Jurchen tribe in the north is different. They can go south and take over the Central Plains.
Therefore, the imperial court valued the Jurchen tribe in the north more than the Japanese pirates.
Wei Yilin didn't understand this, and he said angrily: "Then we can't care about the life and death of dad and the others. Those people in the capital are arrogant and extravagant, and they live and eat. Why can't they save some for the soldiers who protect the family and the country?" "
Yi Lin, you are still young, many things are very complicated, and my mother won’t be able to explain them to you for a while,” said Yun.
Wei Yilin looked at Yunshi, then at Wei Ruo, and muttered: "No matter how small I am, I don't know how to chill the hearts of the soldiers." Wei Ruo said: "What you said is right, but it's a pity that some people don't understand
. "
Wei Ruo stayed at Yun's place for more than half an hour. Only when she talked about the situation at Wei Mingting, Wei Ruo showed some interest. When Yun mentioned other things, she responded indifferently. talk. Yun felt uncomfortable, but didn't know what to say.
In the end, there was really nothing to talk about, so he let Wei Ruo go.
After Wei Ruo left, Yun felt a little headache and subconsciously rubbed her temples.
Wei Yilin pursed his lips and frowned tightly. He didn't know whether he was worried about Wei Ruo's unwillingness to forgive him or about the fight against the Japanese army.
###
Three days later, Wei Yichen returned to Uncle Zhongyi's Mansion after the examination.
Mrs. Yun arranged for him to go back to his residence to have a good rest, and then go to Shouantang Hall to pay his respects to his elders after he recovered.
Later, Mrs. Wei asked Wei Yichen many times about the exam situation. Wei Yichen's answers were very vague, and he only said that he performed normally.
Seeing Wei Yichen's appearance, Mr. Wei's heart dropped, but he still prayed that his grandson would be a Jinshi, even if he came last.
Another half month passed and it was time for the results to be released.
The whole family went out early to watch the announcement of the results. Only Wei Ruo stayed in Changchun Garden and did not join in the fun.
Inside the house, Xiumei was grinding, and Wei Ruo was checking account books and writing letters.
"Miss, do you think the eldest young master can pass the imperial examination?" Xiumei was still a little curious about the result.
"He should be able to pass the exam." Wei Ruodao.
I have read the original work. The original work assumes that Wei Yichen is a very talented person. Although his temperament changed drastically after he was captured that time, there should not be any big changes in his talent and learning.
"What about Mr. Xu and Mr. Zhao? Mr. Xu should have a better chance. He is Jieyuan of Jiangzhe Road." "
I don't know him very well. As for Zhao Xun, it is not easy to pass the exam. This time he is mediocre. It will be good to pass the general examination safely."
Wei Ruo didn't care much about whether these people could pass the exam, and whether they were good or not had little to do with her.
Wei Ruo and Xiumei had been busy in the house for a long time when they suddenly heard the sound of firecrackers and the roar of gongs and drums outside.
Xiumei hurriedly ran outside to check the situation, and ran back quickly after a while.
"Miss, you won. The eldest young master really won!"
"Well, it's expected."
"No, miss, it's not an ordinary win. The eldest young master won the first Huiyuan!" "
First place? "Wei Ruo asked.
"Yes! They were shouting outside. I listened carefully. It is indeed the number one Huiyuan!"
Xiumei was a little excited. Although this matter may not have much to do with her young lady, it was also the first time she encountered This kind of thing makes me excited.
Wei Ruo couldn't help but be a little surprised. He didn't expect that Wei Yichen in this life could do so well in the exam!
She thought he could win, but she didn't expect that he won with first place.
He failed to pass Jieyuan in the provincial examination. Unexpectedly, he came first in the general examination.
"Miss, it's very lively outside, should we go take a look?"
