“So you sat here all this time just to tell me this?”
“This is serious! Today, you were the one who was wronged, but you ended up hitting Sister Wanwan. Now I don’t even know whether I should feel more sorry for you or be more angry at you!” Wei Yilin said gloomily.
“Sounds like you’re quite conflicted.”
“Anyway, just promise me you won’t do this again, and I won’t be mad at you anymore,” Wei Yilin said, having thought about it for over an hour before coming to this conclusion.
“I can’t promise you that. In fact, I don’t think I did anything wrong today. If you want to be angry, you can continue.” Wei Ruo replied firmly.
“You… how can you…” Wei Yilin stomped his feet in frustration.
“Wei Yilin, I have my own principles. I did nothing wrong today. The ‘innocent’ Sister Wanwan you speak of did, in fact, say things that caused misunderstanding—more than once. You can say she didn’t do it intentionally, but not intending to doesn’t mean she isn’t at fault. And how can you be so sure she didn’t do it on purpose?”
“She definitely didn’t! You don’t understand Sister Wanwan. She’s kind to everyone, how could she deliberately mislead Eldest Brother? There’s no benefit for her in doing that! Sister Wanwan is neither bad nor foolish!” Wei Yilin argued.
“That’s what you think. I don’t see it that way. Without evidence, you can’t expect me to think the same as you.”
Normally, Wei Ruo wouldn’t bother arguing this much with Wei Yilin. But since he had stood up for her earlier, she spoke a bit more this time.
Even so, she didn’t expect her words to change his mind.
Wei Yilin pressed his lips together and remained silent for a while. From his expression, it was clear he was still unconvinced and even wanted to keep persuading her.
“Alright, it’s late. Go back. Whether you’re angry or anything else, there’s nothing you can do about me right now. You might as well go back, get some sleep, and regain your energy.”
As she spoke, Wei Ruo grabbed Wei Yilin’s arm and led him toward the courtyard gate.
Though reluctant, he didn’t resist.
Wei Ruo pushed him out of Tingsong Courtyard and then shut the gate.
Looking at the closed gate, Wei Yilin stomped his foot before trudging back to his residence in frustration.

By the end of the fourth lunar month, the weather had grown warmer. With ample sunshine and rain, it was the perfect time for rice seedlings to grow rapidly and also the season for winter wheat harvest.
Over the past few days, Wei Mingting’s condition had improved significantly. He was now able to get out of bed and walk.
Since that day, Wei Ruo has visited Cangyun Courtyard once daily. Wei Mingting did not bring up the incident again. Instead, he asked her about matters in the fields.
“In the past few days, Magistrate Qian from Xingshan County sent word that the wheat you had planted is growing very well. The farmers cultivating land at the south of the city have started harvesting one after another. The yield is high, and the grains are full, everyone is overjoyed.”
The successful harvest meant that the land reclamation project at the south of Xingshan County had succeeded. It was a major accomplishment for Magistrate Qian and the Seventh Prince in charge, so both were naturally overjoyed.
“Mm, it’s good that there’s a harvest,” Wei Ruo replied. She had already known this news, and it was well within her expectations.
“Ruo’er has truly done a great service for the people,” Wei Yichen praised again.
