It was euphemistically called: To thank my second brother for helping me find a female teacher, I will treat my second brother.
Wei Jinyi also understood Wei Ruo's behavior and knew why Wei Ruo was hiding to have dinner at his place.
While Xiumei and Xiaobei were busy in the small kitchen, Wei Ruo and Wei Jinyi were also sitting inside the pavilion.
"Feeling good?" Seeing the playful smile on Wei Ruo's face, Wei Jinyi couldn't help but feel a little more happy.
After observing her for a while, Wei Jinyi found that Wei Ruo's behavior with him was very different from what she usually behaves in front of other family members. Here, she was more agile and lively, and she also liked to laugh.
"Inevitably, I feel good. Although I didn’t mean any of this to happen, the result came out pretty nicely, so I'm naturally in a good mood." Wei Ruo didn't hide her true feelings after watching a good ‘show’.
"You handled it well. Can you tell me why you chose the Xie family?" Wei Jinyi asked.
At first, he didn't know what Wei Ruo was going to do, but when she told him to recommend Mr. Wang to the Xie family, he understood a bit.
Because it was a reputable female teacher, the Xie family would surely be very happy. And not only that, they can also help Wei Ruo pay for the tuition.
As long as Mr. Wang mentioned to the Xie family that they need to bring Miss Wei among the students she taught, Wei Ruo could smoothly go to the Xie family to study.
Wei Ruo replied: "There are two main reasons. First, the Xie family is the most reputable family in Xingshan County, besides the Wei Colonel’s Mansion and Qian County Head Magistrate. They are also the ones who didn’t need to accommodate all the Wei family’s requests.
Second, I have spent some time with Xie Ying. Although we don't have much friendship, I like Xie Ying's temperament. We can live in peace without disturbing each other and there won’t be any trouble that gives me a headache."
"If after that, mother goes back to request the Xie family to let Wei Qingwan to study at the Xie family, will you be willing?"
"That is unacceptable. I have spent all of this effort to avoid her. If I let her study with me, wouldn't all of this work be done for nothing? Besides, you used your connections to find Mr. Wang for me, how can I let someone else take advantage of it?”
“It would be fine if she had no grudges towards me, but I still remember the last time when she slandered me for pushing her! Although I don't have much chance to retaliate for the time being, I can't let someone who has a grudge towards me take advantage of me, right? I will be the one who suffers, no? I don't want to run into trouble!"
"What about me?" Wei Jinyi asked.
“You?”
"For me, are you willing to run into trouble?"
"Pfft......" Looking at Wei Jinyi's serious face, she couldn't hold back for a moment.
Wei Jinyi still looked at her seriously.
"Ahem."
Wei Ruo cleared her throat and analyzed with Wei Jinyi: "After careful calculation, I was locked up in a firewood shed that day to save you, offended the head Mo mo of the household, and even paid for a pile of medicine. But you are a good person. You gave me old ginseng and helped me find a female teacher. You are indeed a grateful person, so I think I didn’t run into trouble for nothing because of you.”
Wei Jinyi smiled, his smile slightly, always shallow, warm, as light as water, as warm as jade.
"By the way, I have a question." Wei Ruo suddenly had a doubt.
"What is it?"
“You look soft and weak, and I usually see you stay at home all day, either reading or writing. But why was it that day when I took off your clothes, your body was quite strong, with good muscle lines?”

chokesI didn't expect this question to come up now. Poor man was unconscious when it happened too so he may not have known that happened. Also, phrasing.
