Wei Mingting and Yun Shi had different views. In recent years in Xingshan County, he had seen a lot of life and death, and seen a lot of poverty. He felt that in the face of these people, the tricks played by the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital were all meaningless.
“What husband said is true. For the people, the most important thing is to have enough to eat and wear warm clothes.”
Yun Shi did not expect that Wei Ruo's ideas coincided with her husband's thoughts. She had been married to him for many years, but she was not able to understand his thoughts in many things.
"Husband, it's better not to think about these things. It's rare for you to go home and have a good rest. You don't even say to me that you were injured."
Yun Shi did not want Wei Mingting to worry about these trivial matters anymore.
She knew that her husband was not resting well in the military camp, which was why he was so tired and even got injured. Although the wound was not deep, if not properly treated, it would leave a root cause of illness.
Wei Mingting really needed to rest and would return to the military camp early tomorrow morning.
However, he was still thinking about the matter mentioned by Wei Ruo.
Before going to the military camp the next day, he went to the County Head Magistrate’s office and talked with the head magistrate about the wasteland in the south of the city.
When the County Head Magistrate learned that the Wei family wanted to try to cultivate wasteland, he agreed.
He wouldn’t agree with other people doing this because he is worried about letting people in and out of the south city gate. He was afraid that a few traitors would come out and take out the defense map of Xingshan County or something.
But he was not worried If it’s Wei Family, so he agreed very quickly.
After getting the results, Wei Mingting sent someone to deliver the letter home.
Seeing that her husband was so devoted to this matter, Yun Shi had nothing to say.
Yun Shi called Wei Ruo herself and told her the good news: "Ruo'er, your father has already sent a letter about the south city’s wasteland. You can start planting a small area there, if it works, it will be a great achievement."
Even if she said that, Yun Shi had no hope for Wei Ruo's success.
"Okay." Wei Ruo was also happy, not expecting Wei Mingting to be so helpful and get things done so quickly.
“Your father also said that you don't need to be too stressed. It's okay if it doesn't work out, there won't be too much loss.”
“En.” Wei Mingting's attitude made Wei Ruo feel a little moved.
Yun Shi immediately said: "But Ruo’er, you are not young anymore. You should have been studying at this time. I intended to let you go to the County Head Magistrate’s residence to study with Wanwan and the others after you learned the rules with Mo mo Li. The County Head Magistrate's wife also agreed on this."
Wei Ruo: "I don't want to go to the County Head Magistrate’s residence to study. I'm not the same person as them. It will be very difficult for me to study together. Let me do something I'm good at."
Yun Shi: "Ruo’er, you need to change some of your previous behaviors. As the daughter of the Wei family, you should learn to be a knowledgeable, reasonable, and intelligent young lady.
Of course, due to the hardships you have suffered in the countryside in the past few years, I won't be too strict with you, and I don't ask you to be as knowledgeable as Wanwan.”
Wei Ruo: "But I may not be able to keep up with Mr. Fu's teaching in the County Head Magistrate’s residence. If you really want me to learn, I don't want to go to the County Head Magistrate’s residence."
Not being able to keep up was an excuse Wei Ruo made herself. The main purpose was not to be with Wei Qingwan, Qian Zhilan and the others.
