Wei Ruo spoke in a calm tone: “I did what was within my abilities. Ultimately, the wheat had to be grown by them. Their diligence paid off.”

Wei Mingting looked at Wei Ruo, and an overwhelming sense of pride arose in his heart.

“These days are the ti for the winter wheat to ripen. If you’re busy during this period, you don’t have to co see . I no longer have any major problems,” Wei Mingting added.

Even though Wei Ruo was no longer in charge of the southern wastelands of Xingshan County, Wei Mingting speculated that her recent hustle and bustle was likely related to work in the fields, even though he was not aware of what specifically Wei Ruo was doing these days.

Wei Ruo looked at Wei Mingting and thought for a while before replying, “It won’t hinder.”

While Wei Ruo and Wei Mingting were chatting, Doctor Cheng arrived.

In recent days, Doctor Cheng had been visiting the Wei Residence every day to check on Wei Mingting’s health.

Today, when he arrived and saw Wei Ruo, Doctor Cheng couldn’t help but exclaim with a smile, “Master Wei is indeed lucky to have a daughter like Miss. During your critical condition, it was thanks to her calm and composed deanor that we managed the crisis. She not only did so but also helped this old man a lot.”

Hearing Doctor Cheng’s praise of Wei Ruo, Wei Mingting was sowhat surprised. While he was aware that his eldest daughter had been taking care of him attentively during his unconsciousness, he was not aware of the other details.

“Oh? What else has my child done?” Wei Mingting asked Doctor Cheng.

“At that ti, the Madam and the second young mistress were thrown into disarray and terribly flustered. In the absence of the young masters, it was the eldest Miss who properly arranged everything at ho and cald everyone. Later when I couldn’t find the necessary dicinal materials for your treatnt within the city, it was Miss who ca up with a solution to source them,” Doctor Cheng answered.

Doctor Cheng further added, “Not just that, when I had to perform a surgical procedure on you, Miss assisted throughout. Her calm and ticulous thoughtfulness greatly contributed to your recovery.”

Although Doctor Cheng wasn’t able to directly ntion how Wei Ruo had perford the surgery, he still attempted to highlight her contribution from other perspectives.

Upon hearing this, Wei Mingting turned to look at Wei Ruo, “How co you didn’t ntion any of this to ?”

“It was my duty, so there was no need to ntion it,” Wei Ruo replied.

Wei Mingting was both delighted and moved. His daughter was not only capable but also calm, truly a bearer of great responsibility.

After examining Wei Mingting, Doctor Cheng said, “Master Wei’s recovery is going well. However, you still need to avoid overworking or exertion in the next few days. Rest is critical, continue taking the prescribed dicine on ti.”

“Thank you for your efforts, Doctor Cheng,” Wei Mingting said.

“I will take my leave now, Master Wei. Please take good care,”

Doctor Cheng gave a few more words of advice before excusing himself.

Not long after Doctor Cheng’s departure, Wei Yichen arrived.

“Father,” Wei Yichen greeted Wei Mingting, then turned his gaze to Wei Ruo.

He had attempted to have a private conversation with Wei Ruo a few tis in the past two days but had been ticulously avoided by her each ti.

Wei Ruo ignored Wei Yichen’s gaze, feigning ignorance of his yearning to speak with her.

Wei Yichen had no choice but to return his attention to Wei Mingting, expressing concern for his father’s health, “How are you feeling today, Father? Are there any discomforts?”

“There’s no problem. I’m feeling better each passing day; you don’t need to worry,” Wei Mingting replied.

Wei Mingting then shared what Doctor Cheng had told him with Wei Yichen, “Doctor Cheng ca earlier and told that in the days when I was unwell, it was Ruoruo who held the fort at ho and ensured everything ran smoothly. She even assisted Doctor Cheng in my dical treatnt and managed to find the missing dicinal ingredients.”

Wei Yichen was slightly surprised and turned to Wei Ruo, saying, “You’ve been working hard, Ruoruo.”

Wei Ruo didn’t respond, she only gave a slight nod before continuing to stand by Wei Mingting’s side, expressionless.

One could neither say she hadn’t responded, because she had nodded, nor that she had responded, because she didn’t say a single word to Wei Yichen.

Wei Mingting noticed, but said nothing, nor did he insist that Wei Ruo respond to Wei Yichen.

Subsequently, Wei Mingting asked Wei Yichen few questions about his recent circumstances at the Academy, to which Wei Yichen responded dutifully.

Wei Yichen was doing quite well at the Anzhou Academy, his excellent performance had won praises and recognition from his tutors.

Upon learning of his son’s situation at the academy, Wei Mingting advised, “Keep working hard and do your best in this year’s academy examination. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. You are still young; there will be many more opportunities in the future.”

“I understand,” Wei Yichen replied.

“That’s enough, you both should go back. You don’t need to keep staying here with . With your mother looking after , there won’t be any problems.”

Wei Mingting instructed both Wei Yichen and Wei Ruo to leave.

Wei Yichen and Wei Ruo bowed their goodbyes and then left Cangyun Garden together.

Wei Ruo walked a bit faster, Wei Yichen trailed behind her, and as they exited the gate, Wei Yichen ran in front of Wei Ruo, blocking her way.

“Ruoruo,” he called.

But Wei Ruo didn’t want to have a conversation with him, “I have sothing else to do,” she said, quickly stepping around Wei Yichen. She then walked in the direction of Tingsong Garden, not giving Wei Yichen another chance to speak.

Wei Yichen stood in the sa spot, his gaze following the receding figure of Wei Ruo, his eyebrows pulled together in tight lines.

After a while, he finally turned to return to his own residence.

When Wei Ruo returned to the Tingsong Garden, Xiui handed her a box.

“Miss, this was sent back by the second young master. The guard gave it to when I went to the kitchen to get so things,” Xiui inford.

Wei Ruo took the small box and then entered the room.

Sitting in front of the dressing table, Wei Ruo opened the box.

On top of the box was a letter. Wei Ruo picked up the letter, and under the letter was a transparent jade pendant.

Wei Ruo opened the letter, but it had only a few words: All’s well, don’t miss .

This truly was like her second elder brother, stingy with words. Even when writing a letter, he was concise.

Since he had gone to the trouble of sending a letter from so far away, why not write a few more words? Even so daily chatter would have been nice.

Wei Ruo picked up the jade pendant in the box and examined it in her hand.

Looking at its texture, it seed to be a very expensive item. But why would her second elder brother send her an expensive jade pendant out of the blue?

Could it be because he knew she loved money, and so he sent her a valuable jade pendant?

At this mont, Xiui ca over and said, “Miss, when the guard gave the item, he also said that if you are short of dicinal herbs, you can take the item in the box to the Fengyue Teahouse in the east of the city and seek Mr. Hao.”

“Really?” Wei Ruo’s eyes lit up.”

dicinal herbs have always been in high demand in Taizhou Prefecture, and this problem had long been bothering Wei Ruo..
