Chapter 244: Why are you treating him nicely? (2)

“You're lying!" He was not stupid, how could such a whip be picked up.

"Why do you care where I got it from? I'm giving it to you anyway."

“Really?" Wei Yilin couldn't believe it. How could Wei Qingruo be so nice to him?

“Don't think too much, I have to give it to you.”

Even if she didn't use it herself, it was still a valuable item! She did this because she had no choice, otherwise, who would want to give it to this annoying kid?

Wei Yilin, however, thought Wei Ruo was being arrogant.

“Just say you want to give it to me, why do you say you have to?”

“I’m too lazy to explain to you.”

Wei Ruo stood up and left. Her mission was completed, so there was no need to waste time with Wei Yilin.

Wei Yilin snorted at the back of Wei Ruoli's figure, then picked up the whip given by Wei Ruo and played with it eagerly.

The master had taught him how to use a whip a few days ago, but he had just started learning and had not had a chance to try it by himself. He only watched from the sidelines as several senior brothers who had learned earlier than him used it, and he was a little envious at the time.

Later when his foundation was more solid, he would be able to practice, and then he would try using this whip!

Wei Ruo didn't know what Wei Yilin was thinking, so after returning to Tingsong Garden, she got busy.

The planting time of the 1000 acres of fertile land in the city must not be wasted. The rice had already been harvested during this time, and she had taken over the empty field. Therefore, she needed to immediately arrange people to plant wheat.

She was originally worried about the initial investment, but now she is doing well. With these 100 taels of gold, it is enough for her to support this field's initial investment.

As they approached the end of September in the lunar calendar, the temperature dropped sharply.

In previous years, it was just a bit cool at this time. But the temperature had dropped so much that everyone had to put on winter clothes in advance.

Many families who failed to buy the necessary supplies for the winter in time also bought them in a hurry in the past few days.

What's worse, it rained for a few days in a row, wet and cold, and the water’s level of the lake had also risen.

This situation was very unusual, usually such heavy rainfall only occurred in summer, and now it is almost October in the lunar calendar.

Wei Mingting hadn't been home since two days ago. He had taken some soldiers to patrol the lake and started dredging the river in an attempt to relieve water pressure.

But this method was only a temporary solution, if the rain didn't stop, the lake would flood the houses and fields sooner or later.

Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan and Wei Yilin all stopped classes and rested at home because of the weather.

Looking at the pouring rain outside, Xiumei sighed and said, "Miss, the people of Xingshan County are also suffering too much. They have finally survived the Japanese pirates and can live a few days in peace, but the heavens are not kind to them again."

Wei Ruo also watched helplessly as the rain fell. The vegetables she had not yet harvested in her yard were already dead, but she didn't care. But those farmers who relied on growing vegetables to make a living were struggling.

“Meimei, you'll go out with me in a while. The people in the south of the city who are cultivating the land have to be moved away. Those people are living in temporary straw huts, and if this heavy rain continues, their houses are in danger. Even if they don't get washed away by the rain, staying in a leaky room on such a cold day won't be good for them.” Wei Ruo said.
