Chapter 117 Father's Promise
Wei Ruoxin said: "You ask me what I am doing and what I want to reward, can't you just say it?" I have to tell myself what to do.
Who knows if she will stop talking after asking for something. The brain circuits of people in the royal family are very twisted. Who knows if she will accidentally hit some forbidden area?
Wei Ruodao: "People's daughters dare not ask for rewards."
"Since I asked, you just answer, there is no need to worry." Chu Lan said.
"The reclamation of wasteland in the south of the city is for the country and the people. I am lucky to be able to provide food for the people. Since my father is an official in the court, I have to bear the emperor's salary and worry about the emperor. As my father's daughter, I should do the same. Understand the truth and share the worries for your father." Wei Ruo replied.
Although you are serving the country and the people, as a prince, you, Chu Lan, shouldn't reward me too much, right? I don’t care about anything else, just give me some money.
Wei Ruo could only say this in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it on his face, for fear that Chu Lan would catch him.
Wei Ruo's words made Wei Mingting feel moved and ashamed.
Because his daughter was brought in by mistake, she suffered a lot after being raised in the countryside for many years. As a father, he has never been able to give her the paternal love and protection she deserves. Even now that he has brought her back home, he still has trouble because of the Japanese pirate incident. No time to care for her.
But my daughter is so sensible and understands justice so well.
Chu Lan looked at Wei Ruo and said, "Since Miss Wei has nothing to ask for, I have no choice but to reward Miss Wei with some yellow and white things. I hope Miss Wei won't find it tacky." Hearing this, Wei Ruo's eyes lit up, reward money
? That's great!
Looking at it this way, the original male protagonist is not without merit. At least she knows how to give her money when she gets things done.
Chu Lan continued: "I would also like to trouble Miss Wei to give me a copy of all the detailed records of this field from improvement, fertilization, planting and harvesting. I will use it." Wei Ruo knew that Chu Lan planned to use this experimental
field When reporting the situation to the court, she would provide detailed records. As for how to report it, it was Chu Lan's business.
"Relevant records have been made by civilian women. They just need to be sorted out a little." Wei Ruodao.
Wei Ruo had long expected that this data might be useful, and she also had the habit of taking notes during the experimental phase, so she would take notes every time she came back to the south of the city for investigation. If she didn't have time to come, she would also ask Granny Zhang to record the relevant information. Report the situation to yourself.
"Well, I will ask Nanny Qin to go to the house to get this key record from Miss Wei later." Chu Lan was very satisfied with Wei Ruo's answer.
He likes people who work for him to be clear-minded, organized and efficient.
After Chu Lan praised Wei Ruo, Wei Ruo asked Agui and Xiaoba to start harvesting rice.
During the harvest, Chu Lan and Qian Zhixian had been watching from the side. From time to time, they would pick up an ear of rice and study it in their hands.
The harvested rice will be transported directly by Chu Lan in a while.
It was almost noon, and Magistrate Qian invited Chu Lan and Wei Mingting to have dinner at his house.
However, Chu Lan proposed that she would like to visit the Wei family: "I heard from Xie Jue's sister that Miss Wei's maid has excellent cooking skills. I wonder if I can have a chance to taste it?" "Oh? Miss Wei's personal maid's cooking
skills Outperforming others? Then I'm going to give it a try." Qian Zhixian said enthusiastically.
"This...I'm not very clear at this time." Wei Mingting looked at Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo thought in her heart: Although Chu Lan's initiative to ask for a meal was a bit silly, at least there was nothing that she knew how to cook, and she was not asked to cook for them.
"Master Chu and Lord Qian don't mind, so I can only be respectful and obey your orders." Wei Ruodao.
After saying that, Wei Ruo asked Wei Mingting for an order: "Father, the daughter will go back to the house first and notify the kitchen and my maid to prepare first." Wei Mingting said, "Please escort me back for my father. The south of the city is not absolutely safe."
Last time, his youngest son had an accident in the south of the city. Fortunately, it was his younger son who had an accident. If something happened to his daughter, he really didn't know what to do.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Mingting asked Chu Lan and Qian Zhixian for instructions: "Mr. Chu and Lord Qian, please allow me to go back to the house with my daughter to make preparations." "Miss Wei's safety is the
most important thing, Lord Wei, don't worry." Chu Lan said.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo got on the carriage he came in, and Wei Mingting rode in front to escort him.
After walking for a while, Wei Mingting deliberately slowed down, came to the carriage, and spoke to Wei Ruo through the window on the side of the carriage: "Ruo'er." Hearing the voice, Wei Ruo lifted the
curtains
: "Father, something is wrong. ?"
"No matter who grants you grace in the future, please don't mention anything related to fatherhood. If you want something, just do it yourself." Wei Mingting warned.
"Why did father say that?" Wei Ruo asked.
"First, my father is a military general, and a military general's achievements should be based on his own strategy and martial arts, so that he can convince the public; second, my father..." Wei Mingting paused, and his tone was a little lower
. He continued: "Being a father will not help you in any way. The fact that you are able to do what you are doing now has nothing to do with being a father. How can a father have the honor to take advantage of you?" Wei Ruo didn't know how to answer the question
.
Wei Mingting continued: "Ruo'er, the lost time of more than ten years is irreversible. My father cannot make up for it in any way. In the future, my father cannot make any other guarantees. The only thing that my father can promise you is One thing: No matter what you want to do in the future, whether you want to farm, plant flowers, or do anything different from ordinary boudoir women, your father will support you." This is Wei Mingting, a father who is
currently I only think of the promises and guarantees given to my daughter.
Wei Ruo was a little touched, and after a moment of pause he said, "Thank you, father."
After the conversation, Wei Mingting returned to the front of the carriage.
Wei Ruo put down the curtains and sat in the carriage, her mood changed slightly.
After returning to Wei Mansion, Wei Ruo found Xiumei, who stayed at home to help Wei Ruo prepare snacks for Wei Jinyi in a few days, and told her that Chu Lan and Qian Zhixian were coming to Wei Mansion for lunch. said.
Xiumei said: "I have no problem preparing lunch. If the Seventh Prince really wants to reward the young lady with a bunch of silver and gold later, he will truthfully report to the court what happened to you in the south of the city, not to mention cooking him a lunch." It only takes a month!"
"I can't bear to do it for a month. I don't want to let my Meimei be so tired! Besides, it's all for him, so what should I eat?" Wei Ruodao said.
"Miss, please bear with me, this is so that we can live a happy and wealthy life in the future!" Xiumei said.
"Okay, okay, listen to Meimei, let's go to the big kitchen. The dishes are probably being prepared there now," said Wei Ruo.
While Wei Ruo was talking to Xiumei, Wei Mingting also told Yun about the matter.
Hearing that Chu Lan had asked Wei Ruo's maid Xiumei to cook, Yunshi worriedly asked, "Can that girl know how to cook? Could it be that Miss Xie's casual remarks were exaggerated by Mr. Xie, causing His Highness the Seventh Prince's misunderstanding?"
