Cuihe had no choice but to do as she was told and took the porridge and pickles out.
Cuihe then wanted to go see Yun Shi and report this matter to her, but Yun Shi was in her room. So she reported this to Cuiping, who was serving Yun Shi, and asked Cuiping to report it to Yun Shi.
"Sister Cuiping, the second young lady didn't eat anything for dinner, and I took all the porridge and pickles back to the kitchen. The second young lady’s body is already weak, and I'm afraid that she will get sick if this continues." Cuihe said.
“I understand." Cuiping simply agreed and did not enter the house to report the matter to Yun Shi.
The condition of the eldest young lady was already enough to make the madam worry, and then there was a second young lady who didn’t want to eat, wasn't this adding fuel to the fire?
Moreover, one was sick after being examined by the doctor, and the other was self-harming by refusing to eat. It was obvious which one was more serious.
Cuiping made her own decision and intercepted the message.
Wei Qingwan waited in her room for a long time but Yun Shi didn't come to find her. In the end, she threw herself on the bed and cried uncontrollably.
###
On the second day, Wei Ruo was picked up by Mrs. Yuan again. Yun Shi didn't know the specific situation. And because Wei Ruo didn't say anything, she didn’t know what happened.
This time she was away for a longer time. And when she came back, it was already dusk.
Yun Shi invited Wei Ruo to have dinner together. Wei Ruo replied that she had already had dinner with Mrs. Yuan and told Yun Shi that her matter had been resolved. Mrs. Yuan would not come looking for her again in the next few days and they could return to Xingshan County at any time.
So Yun Shi ordered someone to prepare and reorganize, and the next morning they will set off back to Xingshan County.
Sitting in the same carriage, Wei Ruo leaned in the innermost corner, covered with a thin blanket that covered her entire face, making it difficult to see her expression.
Wei Qingwan looked pale near the curtain, thinking that her mother would at least ask her a few questions, but Yun Shi never spoke up.
Wei Qingwan's heart completely sunk to the bottom, her position in her mother's heart had been completely replaced by Wei Qingruo…
Yun noticed that Wei Qingwan's face was a bit pale, but Wei Ruo was lying beside her. The doctor said she was not in good health, so Yun Shi felt that she should care more about her.
It took a whole day from the prefecture to Xingshan County, and it wasn't until evening that Yun Shi and her two daughters arrived at Xingshan County.
After returning to Xingshan County, Yun Shi still confined Wei Qingwan for three days, and then went to the Xie family with gifts to express gratitude for borrowing their residence.
Wei Ruo spent two days in her own courtyard, although it was peaceful, she was not idle.
She had to accept the manor given by Mrs. Yuan. So she needed to know their account books and personnel arrangements in the manor.
In addition to her busy schedule, Wei Ruo also received two letters from Wei Jinyi. The one sent to Wei Mingting was sent officially, and the one sent to Wei Ruo was sent secretly along with it.
Opening the letter and seeing a densely written paper, Wei Ruo burst out laughing.
Second brother usually did not talk much. This paper was worth half a month of what he said in the past, right?
Of course, the premise was that he was not drunk. If he was drunk, he could probably say so much.
“Miss, what did the second young master's letter say that made you so happy?” Xiumei came in and saw Wei Ruo laughing with the letter Wei Jinyi sent, so she asked curiously.
“The content is not funny, I just imagined in my mind how my second brother would say the contents of this page and find it a bit funny.”
"What did the second young master say? Did he say when he would come back? Without them, this house feels quite lonely." Xiumei said.
