Chapter 6: Who is the eldest daughter and who is the second daughter
? "But..." Wei Qingwan raised her head and looked at Wei Mingting cautiously.
"Come and sit down, don't think about anything else. Your mother and I have already told you that regardless of blood relationship, you are the daughter of our Wei family." Wei Mingting made it clear.
"Yes, your father is right. Don't think blindly. No one can shake Miss Wei's identity." Yun also expressed her position.
With everyone's joint persuasion, Wei Qingwan slowly walked to the dining table and sat down.
Then Yun looked at Wei Ruo beside her and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her expression was as usual.
The meal process was very quiet. Everyone looked at Wei Ruo several times, worried that she would be unruly after being raised in a merchant's home for thirteen years.
Unexpectedly, she ate in a slow and leisurely manner, completely in line with the standards of a lady.
After dinner, everyone sat down together to drink tea and discuss a more urgent matter.
Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Wei Mingting said to Wei Ruo: "Ruo'er, you have worked hard these years. Your grandfather and two uncles in the capital already know about the wrong child. Soon your name will be revealed." Add it to the family tree."
Wei Mingting had already received the letter from the capital yesterday, and he was going to reply in the next two days, so he had to take it out and tell Wei Ruo now.
"Yes." Wei Ruo agreed, without showing the expectation and joy that everyone expected.
Wei Mingting looked at Wei Ruo's brows and frowned, thought for a moment, and then said: "We have decided to add your name after Qingwan. From now on, you will be the second young lady of the Wei family, okay?" After hearing this, Wei Ruo raised his head
. He raised his head and met Wei Mingting's eyes.
Those eyes were clear and bright, neither sad nor happy.
As a military general, Wei Mingting was always majestic. Even at home, he was more imposing than ordinary people.
The children at home have been afraid of him since they were young. Even Wei Qingwan, who had been deeply favored before, did not dare to look directly into Wei Mingting's eyes when his expression was serious.
Before Wei Ruo could say anything, Wei Qingwan suddenly stood up and knelt down in front of Wei Mingting and Yun:
"Father, mother, please let sister Ruo'er be the eldest daughter in the family!"
"Wanwan, what are you doing? What to do?" Yun's eyes were filled with distress.
"Dad, Mom, I am already very satisfied to be able to grow up in the Wei family these years, to be my parents' daughter, to have Cheng Huan on my knees, and to meet my parents and be willing to keep me by your side. I don't dare to occupy this place anymore. As the eldest daughter, let alone the second young lady, I would be happy to be a slave or a maid."
Wei Mingting and Yunshi frowned, their eyes full of heartache and embarrassment.
Wei Qingwan kowtowed again: "Mom and dad, please do it for me."
This time the kowtow was loud and the thud was very clear.
Yun rushed forward and stopped Wei Qingwan from hurting herself: "Wanwan, please stop knocking. Your parents know what you mean." "My parents love me so much, and my daughter deserves it..." "
Fool
, What are you talking about? You are not allowed to say such shameless words again. You are our daughter, we are a family, and this will never change." Mrs. Yun
held Wei Qingwan in her arms, feeling heartbroken.
Wei Yilin also jumped down from his seat, ran up, and hugged Wei Qingwan and Yunshi.
"Sister, you will always be my sister, you are not allowed to say that kind of thing!" Wei Yilin's mouth was flat and his eyes were red.
Seeing this scene, the lines on Wei Mingting's face tightened and his expression became clouded.
Wei Yichen was also touched by this scene, but he did not step forward to express his position. Instead, he glanced in Wei Ruo's direction, fearing that Wei Ruo would be uncomfortable seeing this scene. After a while, Mrs. Yun let go of Wei Qingwan and asked the two children to return to their seats.
Wei Qingwan stood up with the help of Wei Yilin. She didn't know whether it was because she had been kneeling for a long time or because she was too weak. Her body swayed and she almost fell back, but luckily Wei Yilin supported her.
Then Yun also returned to Wei Mingting.
After a few people sat down, Wei Mingting and Yun's eyes fell back on Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo had a slight smile on his lips, and his crisp voice broke the silence in the hall.
She asked Wei Mingting: "Did my parents make such a decision because I was born a little later?" "
No..." When answering this, Wei Mingting's voice had a rare hint of weakness.
According to the time when the two ladies gave birth, Mrs. Wei should have given birth a little earlier than Mrs. He.
So Wei Ruo, who is Mrs. Wei's biological daughter, should have been born a moment earlier than Wei Qingwan.
"Why is that?" Wei Ruo continued to ask, staring at Wei Mingting with a pair of clear and bright eyes.
Not sure whether it was because his eyes were too clear or for some other reason, Wei Mingting fell silent.
Mrs. Yun hurriedly explained to her husband: "That's it. Wanwan has already entered the family tree. To avoid trouble, I will just fill in your name at the back without making other changes." Wei Yilin interjected: "My sister
is The eldest sister is the eldest daughter in the family. You, of course, cannot take away the identity of the eldest daughter from my sister!" Neither the
eldest nor the second bedroom of the Wei family had daughters. Before Wei Ruo came, Wei Qingwan was the only girl in the family and the eldest daughter.
Although he is not the eldest son or daughter, he still has the character "long" to some extent. In a capital city that attaches great importance to family background, this long character still carries some weight.
"Yilin! What nonsense are you talking about!" Yun scolded sternly, stopping her youngest son from continuing to talk nonsense.
Wei Yilin pursed his lips after being scolded, feeling aggrieved and stubborn.
Mrs. Yun turned around and explained to Wei Ruo: "It's not that I am the eldest daughter and the second daughter. It's because everyone in my family and in the capital are used to it. If I change it temporarily, I'm afraid everyone won't adapt." "That's it
. A reason?" Wei Ruo asked again.
Wei Mingting said with a serious expression: "Your mother and I discussed this matter over and over again and made a decision after weighing many aspects."
Everyone looked at Wei Ruo, waiting for her answer.
Just when everyone thought Wei Ruo was going to say something more to fight for the position of their eldest daughter, Wei Ruo gave everyone an unexpected answer.
"Okay, then I'll be the second young lady."
After hearing this, everyone looked at Wei Ruo in shock.
Wei Ruo just asked a lot of questions, which made people feel that she was very dissatisfied with the small arrangements she was asked to make, but now the situation changed and she directly agreed?
"Ruo'er, do you really don't mind?" Yun asked hurriedly.
"Do whatever is convenient for you. It's very troublesome for everyone to change things around. My father has been very busy recently, so he shouldn't worry about these small things anymore. Or, if I mind, my father and mother will change their minds. Plan?"
Wei Ruo asked back, with a slight smile on his lips and a cunning look in his eyes.
