Wei Ruo walked back and said as he passed Yun Shi: "Mother, I have something else to do. I'll go back to Tingsong Garden first."
Yun Shi looked at Wei Ruo and wanted to say something, but chose to stay silent. Finally, she nodded: "Okay, you can return."
After Wei Ruo left, Yun Shi saw Wei Qingwan hanging her head down, not looking very good.
"Wanwan, what's wrong?" Yun Shi approached and asked with concern.
Wei Qingwan bit her lips and shook her head.
"Wanwan, if there's anything you need to tell your mother directly, don't hold it back. It hurts my heart if you hold it back. Is there something that makes you unhappy?" Yun Shi said.
"Mother, I'm really fine. My sister and Miss Xie get along very well, I'm very happy for my sister, it's impossible to be upset." Wei Qingwan replied.
"Well, I know you must be happy too. Ruo'er has really adapted well these days. Not only is she great at solving problems, but she has also made friends of the same age." Yun Shi said.
"Well, my sister is really amazing. I was just thinking about accompanying Mother to the magistrate's garden party in the capital that will be held in the next few days, so I was lost in thoughts for a while." Wei Qingwan explained.
Wei Mingting won the battle this time, and not only was he promoted, but the Colonel's Mansion’s status also rose. The magistrate's wife's garden party had been held in the past few years, but in the past, the Wei family, who lived far away in Xingshan County, was not invited.
After receiving the invitation letter from the prefecture, Yun Shi began to prepare.
She planned to take her two daughters with her. Wei Ruo was quite busy and didn't spend much time with her on weekdays, so she hadn't told Wei Ruo yet. However, Wei Qingwan often comes to Cangyun Garden to help her with family affairs, so she told Wei Qingwan first so she could be mentally prepared.
"Is Wanwan worried about not performing well when the time comes?" Yun Shi asked.
Wei Qingwan nodded slightly: "Yes, I haven't met the ladies in the capital yet. I'm afraid I might not be polite enough and make a fool of myself."
"Wanwan, don't think too much. With Wanwan's knowledge and accomplishments, there will definitely be no problem." Yun Shi comforted her.
Wei Qingwan lowered her head and did not answer.
Yun Shi said again: "But you have reminded me, if you are going to the capital, I should prepare more decent clothes for you."
Hearing Yun Shi's words, Wei Qingwan couldn't help but feel happy.
With this thought in mind, Yun Shi turned around and walked towards the mansion. Before leaving, she reminded Wei Qingwan: "Wanwan, go back early to rest. Rest is important, don't get too tired."
Yun Shi arrived at Tingsong Garden, where Wei Ruo was packing and organizing the things sent by the Xie family.
Xiumei was walking into the room carrying pieces of cloud brocade. While Wei Ruo was checking the items according to the gift list, classifying the items, and storing them in her warehouse according to the categories. Some of the valuable ones would be put in space later.
There were also medicinal herbs that were difficult to buy in Xingshan County. With these, she could prepare more herbs.
After packing up these things, Wei Ruo planned to use these medicines to prepare something. Some would be kept for herself, and be used to prepare medicines for Xu Zhengyong.
After hesitating for a moment, Yun Shi looked at Wei Ruo and said: "Ruo’er, the magistrate's wife sent an invitation letter, she is inviting us to attend the garden party next month."
"Oh." Wei Ruo didn't even lift her head, her gaze still fixed on the box in front of her.
"Mother wants to make you all nice clothes to wear for the garden party," said Yun Shi.
Wei Ruo's hand movements stopped for a moment. Yun Shi said "you all", so it must also include Wei Qingwan.

Hey, hey, do try to bully your daughter into giving up her things. I don't like peer pressure or coercion!
And I'm sure RuoRuo wouldn't mind sharing with someone who hasn't plotted against her before she even arrived at the manor! Or a mother who is biased and unfair.
