Chapter 221: Wei Ruo angrily criticizes Yun Shi (1)

"It's a long story. To put it simply, I was taken away by mistake and raised somewhere else. I was recently brought back." Wei Ruo said.

"No wonder the Wei family suddenly has an extra legitimate daughter raised in the countryside. It seemed that you were taken out by a mistake. It's also pitiful for you. You've suffered a lot in the countryside, haven't you?"

Mrs. Yuan also heard about the Wei family having an additional legitimate daughter. It was after Xingshan County defeated the Japanese pirates last time, when she heard about the Wei family from others.

"Well, but I don't really want them to know about my medical skills, nor do I want them to know about my relationship with you, so I just said abruptly that this is our first meeting." Wei Ruo said.

"There's nothing abrupt. If you don't want to expose yourself, I will try my best to help you hide it." Mrs. Yuan said, "If you have anything else you want me to pay attention to, just let me know."

"There's nothing else, Madam. You just need to treat me as someone you've just met today in front of outsiders," Wei Ruo said.

"It's simple."

While talking, Mrs. Yuan's maid Xiao Zhao had already found a change of clothes for Wei Ruo. Mrs. Yuan asked Wei Ruo to go downstairs to change clothes first. She wore a flowery skirt with a brocade and a hundred butterflies. The skirt was made of floating light brocade, which was more expensive than cloud brocade, and the top was made of floral pattern silk.

 

-floating light brocade

 

The clothes were of appropriate size and perfectly complement Wei Ruo's figure.

After Wei Ruo finished changing clothes and came out, Mrs. Yuan was filled with joy as she said, "On that day, I was in severe pain during childbirth and didn't care about anything. Later, when I thought about it, I realized that the benefactor who saved me was a beautiful girl. 

Now, at this sight, you really look like that newly blooming hibiscus flower, both delicate and beautiful. If I were a man, I would definitely be tempted."

A thirteen year old girl, at the beginning of her bloom, was the time when her appearance was lively and attractive.

"Thank you for your compliments, Madam." Wei Ruo was a little embarrassed by Mrs. Yuan's words.

"Let's go. Follow me out to meet guests first. After today, you can stay in the city for a few more days, and I will go with you."

Mrs. Yuan took the initiative to take Wei Ruo's hand and led her out.

Back inside the garden, everyone looked at Mrs. Yuan and Wei Ruo by her side.

It was true that people rely on their clothing. After Wei Ruo changed into this dress, she looked even more outstanding.

After arriving in the crowd, Mrs. Yuan chatted with the ladies and let Wei Ruo go around enjoying herself.

Because of Mrs. Yuan's attitude, the attitude of the people who didn't talk to Wei Ruo just now changed a lot, and many people had taken the initiative to come and talk to Wei Ruo.

Wei Qingwan stood in the corner, looking from a distance at Wei Ruo, who was surrounded by everyone. Without any joy in her face. 

Later, a few young ladies played fenhualing in the garden.

 

-fenhualing: a word game played to entertain people while drinking, and the loser had to drink a penalty drink. When playing Feihualing, you can choose sentences from poems and songs, but the selected sentences generally do not exceed seven words.

 

This was originally the part that Wei Qingwan had planned to make a name for herself, but now no one has invited her to join, as if she doesn't exist.

Although Wei Ruo was invited, she did not participate and only ate pastries and nuts beside her.

After the garden party ended, Yun Shi took Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan to leave.

On the way back, Yun Shi was angry and she remained silent. When they returned to the temporary residence of the Xie family, Yun Shi called the two into the room.

"Wanwan, do you know you're wrong!?" Yun Shi questioned Wei Qingwan.

Wei Qingwan knelt down with a "thump".
