“It's not that you don't have enough qualifications, but you haven't been studying in recent years. So your foundation is weaker than Wanwan and others.” Wei Yichen explained.
"Um." Wei Ruo calmly agreed.
"Ruo'er, Mother will still do her best to arrange for you to attend classes at the County Head Magistrate’s Mansion." Wei Yichen added.
Although Mrs. Qian and Yun Shi were trying hard to arrange for their daughters to attend class at the Xie family; the class of this female teacher in the County Head Magistrate’s Mansion should not be dismissed so soon.
After all, there were still young ladies from the Chief of Record family and the Assistant of County Head Magistrate family attending the class.
Even if the Qian family didn't invite them by then, the Wei family could still logically invite that female teacher to their home, so it wouldn't affect Wei Ruo's studies.
"Oh." Wei Ruo still had that calm and collected look.
It was because there was nothing else to say.
“Ruo’er……" Watching Wei Ruo's composed behavior, Wei Yichen felt a bit uncomfortable.
“If there's nothing else, I'll go back first.” Wei Ruo didn't want to continue this topic with Wei Yichen, so she left after saying that.
After Wei Ruo left, Wei Yichen pondered for a long time, then returned to Cangyun Garden and told Yun Shi his thoughts: "Mother, when you go to Xie's Mansion again, please ask Mrs. Xie if she can let Ruo’er to attend the class too?”
Yun Shi hesitated and said: "Yichen, if possible, I naturally would love both of my daughters to be Mr. Wang's students. But in this situation…… She can’t play qin, chess, do calligraphy, and painting. How can I request it to Mrs. Xie?”
He was aware of Ruo'er's situation, and she was far inferior to Wanwan in all aspects of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting.
The County Head Magistrate gave permission to Ruo’er to attend because her father was a loyal Colonel and came from Bo Zhongyi’s Mansion.
Although the Xie family and Mr. Wang Caiwei were not likely to think highly of them because of these things.
But as the eldest brother, he always hopes that both of his sisters are well and he does not want either of them to be wronged.
“Mother, why don't you request it? If the Xie family doesn't agree, it's up to them. We have to ask for Ruo’er’s sake.” Wei Yichen said.
“Yichen, it was already difficult for Mother to ask the Xie family to let Wanwan attend class. If we requested for two people, and Ruo’er couldn’t catch up, wouldn’t it anger the Xie family? What should we do if Wanwan can’t study well at this time?”
Yun Shi had deep concerns in her heart. It was better to have one successful daughter than both failed, right?
###
After three days of contemplation and preparation, Yun Shi brought a gift to the Xie family.
It wasn't until very late in the evening that Yun Shi returned.
When she returned, Yun Shi looked excited.
Wei Qingwan had been waiting at home for a day, and she had her maid Cuihe standing at the gate. When she saw Yun Shi returning, she immediately rushed to Cangyun Garden.
“Mother!”
"Wanwan, you're here! Just in time, Mother wants to tell you some good news!"
"What is the good news, Mother?"
“Silly child, what good news can there be? Of course, the Xie family has agreed to let you go and attend Mr. Wang's class with Miss Xie!”
“Really? Did the Xie family really agree? "Wei Qingwan's face was full of joy, and she couldn't even believe her own ears.
"Of course it's true!"
"Mother!" Wei Qingwan excitedly hugged Yun Shi.
Yun Shi gently patted Wei Qingwan's back, "Alright, alright, things are going well, mother can feel relieved."
"Yes, thank you for looking after me, Mother. Mother has worked hard."
“Silly child, parents should work hard for their children's affairs in this world. Mother personally is happy that you have a good future ahead of you.”
"Um." Wei Ruo calmly agreed.
"Ruo'er, Mother will still do her best to arrange for you to attend classes at the County Head Magistrate’s Mansion." Wei Yichen added.

-qin/guqin: Guqin or qin, is a traditional Chinese seven-stringed musical instrument. This musical instrument is a relative of the lute family, and has a long history in China of around 5,000 years.

I'm still astounded that this family doesn't question the He family. Even if they were a "mere" merchant family, they had the resources to educate MC, even if she had to be raised in the countryside due to "health concerns". If Qingwan was sent to the countryside, would she not be accompanied by knowledgeable servants and teachers?
