"How could it be the second young lady? Hasn’t the second young lady studied at the County Head Magistrate? How could I take her away from the County Head Magistrate?
I heard that the eldest young lady’s study had not been arranged since she had just returned home, so I thought that Mrs. Wei must be talking about the eldest young lady.” Mrs. Xie replied.
When Yun Shi went to the Xie family, she only talked about her daughter and did not mention which one it was.
Mrs. Xie, of course, thought it was Wei Ruo who had no study arrangement, so she agreed to do so. She also said to Yun Shi that she thought Wei Ruo was very nice, and that Wei Ruo would get along very well with her daughter;
She also said that Mr. Wang had already asked her to invite Wei Ruo to study with Xie Ying.
Yun Shi was very happy and took it for granted that it was Wei Qingwan, not even thinking about Wei Ruo.
She didn't think Wei Ruo could catch Xie family’s attention, let alone Mr. Wang.
Wei Qingwan was so shocked that she couldn't speak, and her face turned visibly pale.
Wei Ruo felt Wei Qingwan's resentful gaze, and could see that Wei Qingwan was surprised, at a loss, and even angry at her.
But what did this have to do with her? She didn't do anything to cause Wei Qingwan to lose her opportunity, this was a mess they made themselves.
Mrs. Xie looked at Yun Shi and Wei Qingwan, who were stunned in front of her, and came to her senses.
Knowing that it was inconvenient for her to stay for a long time, Mrs. Wei called Xie Ying over and said goodbye to Yun Shi.
Before leaving, she said to Wei Ruo: "Miss Wei, we will see you again in two days. If you need anything, just let me know and I will prepare it for you in advance.”
“Thank you very much, madam.” Wei Ruo said with gratitude.
Yun Shi, who had recovered from shock, forced herself to smile and saw Mrs. Xie and Xie Ying off.
When she returned, her face was full of exhaustion. She looked at Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan, opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. So she let them return to rest, and then went back to Cangyun Garden.
Wei Qingwan looked at the back of Yun Shi who had left, and the tears in her eyes could no longer be controlled.
She raised her head and looked at Wei Ruo, her eyes filled with anger and disbelief.
Wei Ruo ignored her and went back to continue working on her pumpkin vines.
After a while, she heard footsteps and knew that Wei Qingwan had trotted away.
After returning to Cangyun Garden, Yun Shi had a lot of thoughts.
The Xie family agreed that the Wei family's daughter would go to study together, and being a student of Mr. Wang Caiwei was a good thing. No matter which daughter, she should be happy.
But who would have thought it would be a mistake? Yun Shi has mixed feelings.
The joy was still there, at least there was still a daughter who was going to Xie's house to study with Mr. Wang.
But there were also worries, heartaches, and heartbreaks.
She worried that Ruo’er may not perform well.
She felt sorry for Wanwan, this misunderstanding made Wanwan suffer a lot.
As for the heartbreak, she couldn't tell exactly why she felt this way.
###
As dinner time approached, Wei Ruo asked Xiumei to tell the people in Cangyun Garden that she was not feeling well and would not go to the dining hall for dinner tonight.
Wei Ruo knew that if she went to the dining hall for dinner today, she would inevitably have to face the gloomy atmosphere at the table, so it's better not to go.
She didn't think the rest of the family would care about whether she went to the dining hall for dinner today.
Then Wei Ruo ran to the Yingzhu Garden to have dinner with Wei Jinyi.
