Upon hearing this, Yun Shi was taken aback and finally realized that Wei Ruo had gone out today because she was invited by Madam Yuan.
Wei Qingwan’s expression also changed multiple times. She stared intently at Madam Yuan’s maid, seemingly trying to find evidence that the person was not truly from the Yuan household.
Qingyi, Madam Yuan’s personal maid, was well aware of her mistress’s attitude toward Wei Ruo.
Thus, upon hearing this, Qingyi said to Yun Shi, “Madam Wei, my mistress greatly admires Miss Wei and deeply respects the work she has done for the people of Xingshan County. When my mistress arrived in Xingshan County, Miss Wei was the first person she thought of. I kindly ask that you allow Miss Wei to meet with my mistress for a chat.”
Yun Shi, snapping back to her senses, quickly replied, “That’s not the case. Ruo’er misunderstood. I was merely reminding her to be more mindful. Perhaps I misspoke and gave Ruo’er the wrong impression that I disapprove of her involvement in agricultural matters.”
Qingyi turned to Wei Ruo and asked, “Is that the case, Miss Wei?”
Wei Ruo didn’t respond immediately, her gaze sweeping over Yun Shi and Wei Qingwan.
Her silence made both Yun Shi and Wei Qingwan visibly nervous.
After a long moment, Wei Ruo finally spoke slowly, “Perhaps I misunderstood.”
Hearing this, Yun Shi breathed a sigh of relief. She absolutely did not want to offend Madam Yuan. Offending her would be unthinkable for Yun Shi!
Qingyi said, “That’s good to hear. Miss Wei, please follow me to the carriage. My mistress is waiting for you at the Yahe Mountain Residence.”
“Alright.” Wei Ruo, along with her maid Xiumei, mounted the horse and approached the carriage. Before stepping into the cabin, Wei Ruo turned to look at Wei Qingwan.
Wei Qingwan, feeling Wei Ruo’s gaze upon her, immediately lowered her head, avoiding eye contact. Whether out of guilt or for some other reason, she couldn’t meet Wei Ruo’s eyes.
Soon, the Yuan family’s carriage sped away, leaving Yun Shi and Wei Qingwan standing awkwardly at the door.
Yun Shi’s emotions were complex and hard to describe.
Wei Qingwan bit her lip tightly, her face dark and unpleasant.
She couldn’t understand why Wei Ruo’s luck was so good. Losing the support of the Seventh Prince, she now gained the favor of Madam Yuan.
Wei Ruo was brought by the Yuan family’s servants to Yahe Mountain Residence, a secluded teahouse in Xingshan County.
Yahe Mountain Residence was a hidden treasure in the desolate and remote Xingshan County.
Nestled at the foot of the mountain, it was a small, elegant establishment. In its courtyard stood a few eight-immortal tables where the owner served tea and light snacks.
Madam Yuan was waiting there for Wei Ruo.
Because of her presence, the retreat wasn’t open to other guests, and guards were stationed all around.
When Wei Ruo saw Madam Yuan, Madam Yuan also noticed her and smiled, waving warmly.
“Why did you personally come this time, Madam?” Wei Ruo asked as she sat down, voicing her own curiosity.
She was surprised by Madam Yuan’s visit to Xingshan County. Wei Ruo had assumed that after their previous exchange of letters, Madam Yuan would send someone to Yun Shi to deliver a message and then bring her to the city.
But to her surprise, Madam Yuan came in person.
"All thanks to you, benefactor. Your prescription truly works wonders. Over this period, I’ve followed it faithfully, and my complexion has improved, and I feel much more energized. I could barely move around these past six months, but recently, my health has been improving, so I thought I’d take this rare chance to go out for a stroll. It’s also a perfect opportunity to personally come and fetch you, so we can chat along the way." Madam Yuan said warmly.
Today, Madam Yuan’s complexion was noticeably better than the last time they met, her brows and eyes exuding vitality.

Parts of this chapter are missing. I know because I looked at the raws.
Wei Rou speaks up and puts Yun Shi in an awkward position first.
It's the first part that's missing. Actually, it might be the end part of the previous chapter that's missing.
<blockquote>"In reply to madam, we are servants of the prefect's house. We are here to pick up Miss Wei on the orders of my madam," the maid replied.
Mrs. Yuan sent someone to pick up Wei Ruo? Yun was very surprised.
Looking at it this way, she had indeed seen the maid in front of her at the garden party. She was someone close to Madam Yuan!
Just when Yun was surprised, Wei Ruo replied to Madam Yuan's personal maid: "I'm sorry, sister. My mother doesn't allow me to be busy with farm work all day, so I can't help Madam. Please go back and report to Madam."</blockquote>

Apparently Wei Rou talks back several times and yet that didn't make it into the translation of the last few chapters. So idk what else I've missed up to this point. I only just noticed because there was a part that made no sense recently and realized there are a few parts missing in these few chapters.
