A Blessed Daughter

Chapter 439: Ask the elders to comment

"That's right. Ruo'er will definitely remarry in the future, and the girl from the Zhongyi family's family will not worry about marrying. It's just that Ruo'er will not be able to marry a high-ranking family like Zhongyi's family in the future, so this Thyme It would be a bit wasteful to make a dowry." Bai analyzed.

"But I don't think it's a waste. When I marry an ordinary family, I should prepare more valuable things as a dowry, so that I can have something to rely on." Wei Ruo replied calmly.

The smile on Bai's face couldn't hold back anymore, and the corners of his mouth twitched stiffly.

Immediately afterwards, Bai's tone became serious: "Ruo'er, it's not the second aunt who said you. It's different now. It's rare that the two jars of wine your friend gave you are still useful. You should do it for you. The Wei family was happy to make a contribution, and gave things to the second aunt happily, instead of being coy here and making everyone unhappy."

"Second aunt, I didn't say you. If you want thyme, you can get it with your ability. What? I can't get it, so why don't you blame me for not giving it to you? Then why don't you go to the Golden Luan Palace and cry, blame the emperor for not giving it to you. Give the second uncle a good official position, blame the chief examiner for not letting your son be admitted as a scholar?" Wei Ruo asked back.

"What do you mean? Are you mocking your second uncle and your cousin?"

"Isn't what I said the truth? If you don't have the ability to get something, think about why you don't have the ability, instead of blaming others for not giving it to you."

"You dead girl, how dare you speak rudely to me like this? I am your second aunt! Do you still have any sense of superiority or inferiority in your eyes?"

"I don't want elders like Second Aunt who only care about other people's interests."

"Okay, okay, it seems that you, my second aunt, don't pay attention to me at all! Come on, come with me to Shou'an Hall now, and let the old man and the old lady give a good review!"

As he spoke, Mrs. Bai went straight to grab Wei Ruo's wrist, trying to drag Wei Ruo away.

Wei Ruo pulled back his hand, looked down at his red wrist, and cast a cold glance at Bai Shi: "Don't pull, I will walk by myself."

Before leaving, Wei Ruo turned to Xiumei and said, "Meimei, put your thyme away so that the mice won't drink it."

"Yes, miss."

Bai's mouth twisted in anger: "You called me a mouse, didn't you?"

"It's a mouse who wants to steal my wine, aren't you?" Wei Ruo asked back.

Bai's face was dark: "I see how long you can be stubborn!"

In Shou'an Hall, Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Wei are taking a lunch break.

In the past two days, because of Xuanping Hou's divorce, the old man had trouble sleeping and eating, and he didn't have a good rest last night. Now he just fell asleep after drinking calming tea.

Old Madam Wei was watching over the bed.

Hearing the noise outside, the old man frowned and asked the servant girl what was the matter.

"It's the second lady. She brought the eldest lady over and said that she wanted the old man and the old lady to judge."

"Criticism? What is this Mrs. Bai doing?" Mrs. Wei said a little displeased.

Old Master Wei got up from the bed, "I want to see what they want to do!"

Speaking of Mrs. Wei putting on his coat, Mrs. Wei was a little helpless, so she had to follow the old man out of the back room.

Sure enough, there were Bai Shi and Wei Ruo standing in the room outside.

As soon as she saw the two elders, Bai started to sue, telling her that she wanted Wei Ruo's thyme, but Wei Ruo refused to give it to her.

In the end, Mrs. Bai wiped away her tears with some grievances: "Father, mother, my master has been trying his best to find a way out for our Wei family. I dare not say that he has contributed a lot, but at least he has worked hard. We want this The wine isn't for herself, it's for the Wei family! Who would have thought that Ruo'er not only didn't understand, but instead became furious at me and insulted me as an aunt..."

Speaking of this, Bai's eyes turned red, and he took out a handkerchief and began to wipe it off.

Old Master Wei frowned.

He turned around and asked Wei Ruo: "Is what your second aunt said true? Do you have two jars of thyme?"

"yes."

"Do you know why your second aunt asked you for those two jars of wine?"

"Know."

"Then why don't you agree?" Mrs. Wei's face was clearly angry.

"Why should I give it? It's mine, and I have the right to decide whether to give it or not." Wei Ruo said.

"Your things? You are in the Wei family. What you live in, eat, wear and wear doesn't belong to the Wei family. It's rare that the Wei family can use you. Why are you so fussy about it?"

Old Master Wei's anger came up immediately.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wei hurriedly persuaded: "Master, don't be angry, Ruo'er may not want to help."

"Then you ask her now, is she willing to take out these two jars of wine?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Wei quickly turned her head and said to Wei Ruo: "Ruoer, tell your grandfather quickly, you are willing to take out this wine."

Old Madam Wei kept giving Wei Ruo winks.

"I don't want to." Wei Ruo insisted on his position.

Old Mr. Wei slammed the table, and then said to Mrs. Wei: "Listen, listen."

"Master, calm down. It's just a matter of two jars of wine. If you don't want to, then you don't want to. It's not worth such a fuss." Madam Wei comforted her.

Bai said: "Father, mother, this is not a matter of two jars of wine. You may not know how popular this thyme is in the capital now. The old man of the Lu family loves this wine the most. The few jars brought back by the Taizhou Mansion are about to be consumed, and the old man entrusted many people to look for them! And Master Qi also publicly mentioned that he thinks this wine is good, and it cannot be compared with other wines."

"The two jars of wine in our house are ordinary two jars of wine. It is a great favor to take them out! The daughter-in-law also considers this and asks for it from the niece regardless of face."

Bai explained the importance of the matter to the two elders.

After hearing Bai's words, Mrs. Wei immediately made a decision: "Come here, bring those two jars of wine over here!"

There was a smug smile on the corner of Bai's mouth.

The attitude of the second elder was exactly as she thought.

If it was years ago, the second elder might have been worried, but now that Wei Ruo has no other use value, the second elder will definitely not continue to pamper her.

Nanny Jin got the order, and was about to go out to Changchun Garden with her maid Mingzhu and others.

Just at this moment, Wei Yichen walked in and called to Nanny Jin and the others who were about to go out.

"Wait a minute."

Then Wei Yichen walked up to the second elder of the Wei family.

"Grandfather, grandmother, Ruo'er's things belong to Ruo'er, I hope you don't go against her wishes and take her own things."

Hearing this, everyone present was taken aback.

Wei Ruo also looked at Wei Yichen with surprise and suspicion...
