Chapter 440 Maintenance of Big Brother
"Yichen, why are you here? Didn't you tell you to concentrate on your studies and not worry about the affairs of the house?"
Seeing Wei Yichen, Mrs. Wei was full of concern and love.
The exam is coming soon, nothing is more important than Wei Yichen taking the exam. Even Wei Ruo's divorce is not as important as Wei Yichen's imperial exam in the eyes of the old man Wei.
"Grandfather, Ruo'er is my only direct sister. I am the only sister, and my parents only have this daughter. Within reason, I don't want anyone to force her to do something she doesn't like."
Wei Yichen's expression was serious, his tone was serious, and every word was loud and clear.
Everyone showed surprise eyes again.
"The only younger sister", this directly excludes Wei Qingwan!
And he actually talked to Mrs. Wei like this for this!
Wei Ruo was also surprised and surprised.
Wei Yichen also spoke for himself before, but it was because he hated Wei Qingwan himself, and helping her was equivalent to helping himself.
But this time is different, this time the matter has nothing to do with Wei Qingwan, but he chose to stand up and speak for himself.
"Yichen, it's just two jars of wine. It's not a big deal. No one in this family wants to bully your sister." Old Master Wei said in a deep voice.
Even his most cherished grandson, speaking like this made him a little displeased.
"Grandfather, since it's just two jars of wine, don't hurt the harmony of the family because of it." Wei Yichen said.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Yichen turned his head and asked Bai Shi: "Second Aunt, what is the probability that Second Uncle can see Master Qi himself?"
Bai's face froze: "This... Although we may not be able to meet Mr. Qi in person, we can send gifts to his house."
Wei Yichen asked again: "What is the name of the gift?"
Bai's expression flickered: "This... I haven't thought about it yet..."
Wei Yichen asked again: "How sure are the second uncle and the second aunt that Mr. Qi will like this gift, and even if Mr. Qi likes it, how likely is it that they will think highly of the Wei family and the second uncle because of this?"
Bai's expression was anxious and she didn't know how to answer the conversation, because she also knew that the probability of this matter being successful was not high.
Wei Yichen turned back and said to the old man Wei: "Grandfather, what the second aunt said is only a very small probability. Besides, although my Wei family is no longer beautiful, but the title is still in the body, it is not a last resort, there is no need to do this. Stay humble and try to please others everywhere, not only will you not win any benefits for the Wei family, but it will also make the Wei family lose face, and outsiders will look down on my Wei family even more."
Wei Yichen's words changed the expression of Mrs. Wei, and his wrinkled face became a little more dignified.
Bai Shi was a little reconciled, she retorted Wei Yichen: "Although the probability is very low, but it is just two jars of wine, it is best to be useful, and the loss is not big if it is not useful, why not give it a try?"
Wei Yichen replied: "As far as I know, the price of a jar of thyme outside has been raised to three hundred taels of silver, and two jars of thyme are six hundred taels of silver. Second aunt thinks this is a small amount of money? Or is it because of the six hundred taels of silver?" The two belong to my sister, so it doesn't matter?"
Bai's usually eloquent, but now Wei Yichen blocked him.
At this moment, Mrs. Wei opened her mouth to smooth things over: "Forget it, it's not a big deal. It's really inappropriate to make a fuss over such a trivial matter. Since these two jars of wine are Ruo'er's personal belongings, how can we as parents be tough?" Why do you want it?"
Speaking of Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Bai criticized the Bai family: "Second daughter-in-law, you are really serious. It is a good idea for you to think about the Wei family and want to do something for the Wei family, but as an aunt, how can you care about your niece? Want things? If you really think about the Wei family, you should find a way to get things done by yourself, and it is better to do less generous things."
Then Mrs. Wei said to Wei Yichen: "Yichen, it's not long before the exam, so you can put your mind on your studies and don't worry about other things. There are grandmas in this house." , Grandmother won't let anyone bully Ruo'er."
Old Madam Wei's words have already stated her position, and also gave Wei Yichen a promise.
"Thank you, grandma." Wei Yichen said.
"Mother..." Bai was not reconciled, and tried to say something.
"Okay, okay, let's all go back." Mrs. Wei interrupted Bai, "Both of us old people are a little tired."
Bai's stomach full of grievances was blocked back.
"My daughter-in-law is resigning." Mrs. Bai reluctantly withdrew.
"Grandson resigns."
Wei Yichen and Wei Ruo left Shou'an Hall together.
Walking to the door, Wei Ruo wanted to ask Wei Yichen why he helped him.
"you…"
Wei Ruo just opened his mouth, and Wei Yichen who heard the voice did not stop, but walked away quickly.
After Wei Ruo and the others left, Mrs. Wei said to Mrs. Wei with some displeasure: "Why does this child, Yichen, change his appearance now? He even contradicted us!"
"Master, don't worry, Yi Chen has always loved his younger sister. Ruo'er is his only biological younger sister, and she suffers outside. What's wrong with him protecting her? Have you forgotten that Yi Chen used to treat Wan Wan very much?" She is also very loving and caring." Mrs. Wei persuaded.
"Forget it, as long as he takes the imperial examination well, the rest will be trivial." Mrs. Wei said.
###
I don’t know if Wei Yichen’s speech in Shou’an Hall that day played a role. In the next ten days, Wei Ruo had a pretty good time in Zhongyi Bo’s Mansion.
Bai didn't bother to look for Wei Ruo again, and Yun and Wei Qingwan didn't have time to look for Wei Ruo because they were busy with their marriage.
So Wei Ruo can focus on her own affairs. Although she is not as free as she was in Taizhou Mansion and has no chance to go out, fortunately Xiumei can help her bring the news outside so that her plans can go smoothly. conduct.
In the house, Xiumei was waiting for Wei Ruo to write the next arrangement, and then she was going to take Wei Ruo's letter out of the house to the Zhao brothers.
"Miss, are you still planning to ask Mr. Zhao to propose marriage again?" Xiumei asked.
"That's right. But let's take it easy. The ninth day of next month will be the exam. Don't bother him at this time. Just let him prepare for the exam. He is physically weak, and the imperial examination is a very labor-intensive thing. Don't let other things bother him at this time." Wei Ruo said.
"I really hope things can come to a conclusion quickly. This Zhongyibo Mansion is even more boring than the Wei family in Taizhou Mansion. There are too many rules." Xiumei muttered.
Although Wei Ruo and Xiumei have tried their best not to deal with other people, since Xuanping Hou's mansion divorced, Wei Ruo and Xiumei have often looked down upon in the mansion, and even Wei Ruo's food and clothing expenses have been deducted Not a lot.
The master and servant were talking, when suddenly a servant girl hurried to the door of Wei Ruo's room.
"Miss, quickly dress up and go to the front hall! The imperial decree is here!"
