Chapter 133 We don't have to fight with them
During dinner time, Wei Ruo appeared in the dining room, and Yun praised: "Ruoer has done very well these two days, today I met Mrs. Qian when I was out, she praised you very much and praised you repeatedly. "
Wei Ruo just nodded slightly, but didn't answer.
It is not unusual for Mrs. Qian to praise Wei Ruo. What Wei Ruo has done is also helping Qian Zhixian to a certain extent.
Yun continued: "It's just Ruo'er, although the Captain's Mansion is not a rich and powerful family, you can still get the money for the porridge. You can go to the porridge tomorrow and use your own people and supplies. You don't have to follow along." Thank you for coming together."
Wei Ruo hadn't replied yet, but Yun immediately continued to explain: "And you also bring Wanwan with you, so that she can learn from you as well."
The eldest daughter got a good reputation for saving people and giving porridge outside. Wanwan will inevitably look inferior in comparison with her.
What's more, Wanwan was criticized by Mrs. Yuan in Fucheng before, so she had to find a way to remedy it.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Qingwan also came over, and leaned slightly towards Wei Ruo: "Sister, what my sister has done recently is praised by my father and the people in the county. My sister really admires my sister. Tomorrow, I will go to the porridge with my sister. My sister asked I will do whatever I do, and I will never be negligent.”
Wei Ruo curled her lips into a smile: "Does sister Qingwan want to imitate me in saving people, or do you want to imitate me and be praised?"
"Naturally, I learn from my sister to help others. It is my sister's credit that my father was saved. Our family is very happy because of my father's safety. The other people who want to come to my sister's rescue are also parents and children of other families. They must be very grateful Yes." Wei Qingwan said.
"It's good if you can think so, but since you have such an idea, you can do it yourself, there is no need to follow me." Wei Ruo replied.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo turned to Yun and said: "Mother, since I have made an appointment with Miss Xie to give porridge together, there is no reason to break the contract. If the school captain's mansion wants to give porridge, I can let sister Qing Wan go. If the government gets a good reputation, it can also win a good reputation for Sister Qingwan."
After Wei Ruo finished speaking, both Yun Shi and Wei Qingwan looked a little unnatural.
"Does mother think I'm wrong? Asking sister Qingwan to make porridge in another place is a way to achieve the best of both worlds. It can satisfy both mother and sister's desire to save people, and it won't make things difficult for my daughter. And since it's for rescue Common people, the more porridge you give out, the better."
Wei Ruo's words are well-founded, making it difficult for Yun to refute.
Wei Qingwan was a little anxious, she wanted to go to the porridge with Wei Ruo.
In today's Captain's Mansion, Wei Ruo is the most affluent person on hand. The Seventh Prince just rewarded her with a hundred taels of gold, which is a lot of money.
With this amount of money, Wei Ruo can naturally help the people as he wants, and don’t have to worry about money at all when giving porridge and cotton clothes.
It is easy to say that it is easy to pay money in the mansion, but it is difficult in reality. Wei Qingwan, who has read the account books of the school captain's mansion, knows that there is a problem with the income and expenditure of the family this year, and there is not much money left in the government.
Yun Shi and Wei Qingwan seemed to want to say something to Wei Ruo, but Wei Ruo didn't give them this chance, she saw Wei Mingting, and walked straight towards Wei Mingting.
"Father."
Seeing Wei Ruo, Wei Mingting's expression softened a lot: "Ruo'er should pay attention to rest in the past few days. Although saving lives is very important, you must also take care of your body."
"Well, I know, and my father is too. Father is busy on both sides these days, so he still needs to pay attention to rest." Wei Ruo said.
Wei Mingting nodded kindly.
Wei Mingting has always been an unsmiling and strict father in the impression of Wei Yichen and the others, but when facing Wei Ruo, Wei Mingting is relatively more loving.
Maybe this daughter is very similar to him, which makes him feel very close, or it may be that he has a lot of debts and guilt towards this daughter.
Yun Shi and Wei Qingwan didn't mention what happened just now when they saw this.
The family sat together and had a quiet dinner.
After dinner, Wei Ruo didn't stay for tea, and went back to Tingsongyuan directly on the grounds that he had something to do.
Wei Mingting didn't stay long either, he was also very busy, it would be great to come back and have dinner with his family, he had to go to the study to deal with some business first.
Then Wei Yichen, who was busy studying, and Wei Yilin, who was addicted to martial arts recently, also left one after another.
The rest of Wei Qingwan hadn't left yet. Seeing that no one else was there, Wei Qingwan asked Yun: "Mother, about the porridge..."
Mr. Yun frowned and said, "You don't have to worry about getting it. I'll give you the porridge money from my dowry."
Hearing this, Wei Qingwan couldn't help laughing.
"But mother, that is your dowry, how can my daughter use your dowry..." Wei Qingwan said a little ashamedly.
"Mother's dowry will also belong to you and Ruo'er in the future, and the money should be used wisely, so you can use it anyway." Yun said.
Speaking of which, Mrs. Yun took Wei Qingwan's hand, patted the back of her hand lightly, and said earnestly: "Wanwan, do it well, no matter whether you can save your reputation or not, you have to do it for this Xingshan County." The common people do their best, and it is your father and all the soldiers who guarded it with their lives."
Wei Qingwan nodded: "Don't worry, mother, I will do my best."
###
The next day, Wei Ruo and Xie Ying served porridge at the West Gate as usual. They specially prepared some extra pickles today, so it would be more refreshing to eat with porridge.
Xie Ying leaned into Wei Ruo's ear and said, "Ruoruo, I heard that Wei Qingwan and Qian Zhilan went to set up a stall at the North City Gate and taught us to serve porridge!"
Wei Ruo said with a smile: "No matter what their purpose is, it is a good thing that the porridge is actually given and the affected people eat the porridge."
Xie Ying thought for a while: "That's right. We didn't come here for fame, so we don't need to fight with them. As long as the result can save people and let more people get through the difficulties, that's good!"
"That's the reason."
Wei Ruo smiled, and then he and Xie Ying continued to work on their affairs.
Working all morning, after delivering the porridge pie, Xie Jue took several carts to the porridge shop.
"Sister, sister of the Wei family." Xie Jue called Xie Ying and Wei Ruo with a smile on his face.
"Brother, why did you come here!" Xie Ying said with some disgust.
"My good sister, I'm already the fastest. You have to know how tight these cotton-padded quilts are now. Thanks to my mother's village and shop, otherwise I don't even know where to buy them when I have money." !” Xie Jue explained innocently.
This sudden change in weather is not just affecting Xingshan County, disasters are everywhere, food is in short supply, and cotton clothes and quilts are also in short supply.
"Okay, okay, wait for us to clean up here, and then we will go door-to-door to check the situation and deliver to those in need." Xie Ying said.
"Wait a minute, I still have some things not arrived." Wei Ruo said.
