This question made both Wei Mingting and Yun Shi's eyes flashed with a hint of guilt.
"It will be useless for me even if I disagree with it, so I don't mind. It can't be helped, I can only blame fate for these thirteen years I missed with my parents after all." Wei Ruo said in a lighter tone, as if she was really sympathetic to Wei's family.
Everyone in the hall fell silent, especially Wei Mingting and Yun Shi, who had been aching for Wei Qingwan, but at this moment they felt that this child's non-competitive behavior made people feel sorry.
Yun Shi was moved and said to Wei Ruo, "Ruo’er, you are the biological child of us. We are connected by blood. Now that you are back, whether you are the eldest or second daughter, your position in our hearts is very important. Father and Mother will make up for the missing thirteen years of affection.”
"Okay." Wei Ruo agreed happily, but she had other plans secretly.
Wei Mingting said in a deep voice: "It is settled. From now on you siblings get along well. Yichen, Wanwan, Ruo'er has just returned and doesn't understand a lot of things, so you should take care of her more."
"Father, don't worry." Wei Yichen replied.
"Daughter understands." Wei Qingwan lowered her head and softly agreed.
As this matter was solved, Wei Mingting returned to his study room to reply to the capital, explaining the situation to them.
After drinking tea and discussing the matter, Wei Ruo was personally sent back to Tingsong Garden by Yun Shi.
Not knowing whether it was because Wei Ruo accepted the identity of the second young lady or not, Yun felt a bit guilty. She had been telling Wei Ruo all the way that she wanted to buy things for Wei Ruo, from clothes and hair ornaments, to maids and Mo mo, and arranging everything.
The Colonel’s Mansion was not actually considered wealthy. They almost spent all of their ancestors’ fortune. As a colonel, Wei Mingting did not have much salary. But, there were some things that Wei Qingwan already had, and It was not easy for Yun Shi to favor one child over the other.
Wei Ruo agreed to receive money and things, but Wei Ruo politely refused for the staff arrangement. She said that for the time being, with one maid, Xiumei, was enough. She also did not like other people going in and out of her room.
Yun Shi followed her wishes and didn't force on such matters, saying only that she would make arrangements for Wei Ruo when she wanted to.
When she returned to Tingsong Garden, went into her room and closed the door. Wei Ruo, who was so dignified and calm one second before, was slumped after.
Who knew drinking tea took too much effort! With this effort, I would have finished cutting a crop of wheat!
For some reason, Wei Ruo felt that when she worked hard to earn money, although tired, she was enjoying it. But this kind of tiredness she felt for coping with social occasions was depressing. It was as if there was a huge amount of foul air filling her lungs.
In fact, Wei Ruo, who knew the original plot, had already known what Wei Mingting and Yun Shi were going to say to her today.
The original protagonist had a quarrel with Wei Mingting over this matter. The original protagonist felt that it was originally hers, Wei Qingwan had already occupied her identity, status and affection for thirteen years. Why should she continue to occupy her status as the eldest daughter?
In the end, the original protagonist succeeded and became the oldest daughter. However, Wei Qingwan, who had been wronged in this incident, was pitied by others and had a grudge against the original protagonist.
In fact, the original protagonist made such a fuss and wanted the status of the eldest daughter so much. But why did she only want the position of the eldest daughter?
What she wanted is actually the attention and affection from her biological parents.
It was just that the way she expressed it was a bit clumsy.
The past experience made Wei Ruo feel that it is better to rely on her own efforts to strive for her own identity and status, rather than to expect others to give it to her.
Not betting on others and not having high expectations of others; especially those who do not care much about themselves, will make your life more enjoyable.
If given the opportunity, Wei Ruo wanted to break away from the Wei family and set up her own business.
As for the matter of the eldest daughter and the second daughter today, Wei Mingting and Yun Shi might not be able to make the decision.
The only person who could really make a final decision was the great uncle in the capital.
