A Blessed Daughter

  Chapter 226 Lu Yu is grateful to Wei Ruo's disaster victims

  But when Wei Qingwan faced Xu Yaojun's provocation, she was very indifferent and arrogant, which made Xu Yaojun's efforts in vain.

  That's why Xu Yaojun seized the opportunity today and specially used Wei Ruo's affairs to anger Wei Qingwan.

  On weekdays, when Xu Yaojun provoked Wei Qingwan with other things, she could keep her calm, but today she obviously lost her composure, which made Xu Yaojun very satisfied.

   Immediately afterwards, Xu Yaojun walked up to Wei Ruo and took the initiative to chat with Wei Ruo: "Miss Wei, your loquat paste is very good. It cured my grandfather's chronic illness. My grandfather and grandmother often praise you."

   "As long as it's useful." Wei Ruo's attitude towards Xu Yaojun was basically the same as that towards the wives, polite and relaxed.

  Xu Yaojun said again: "It's not like your sister, who is said to be very talented, but I think she is nothing special except that she can read some poems and books. When she really needs it, she is useless for anything."

  Xu Yaojun deliberately praised Wei Ruolai to further belittle Wei Qingwan.

  Wei Ruo looked at Xu Yaojun in surprise.

  This lady from the Xu family spoke in a very loud voice. The ladies walking in the front might not be able to hear her, but the ladies around her must be able to hear her, including Wei Qingwan herself.

  Speaking so openly in front of people, why does this move look so like what the careless cannon fodder female supporting role in the novel would do?

  In the original novel, there are many such characters around Wei Qingwan, and Wei Qingwan always responds with a cold and indifferent attitude.

  In the end, most of these characters ended up miserable, because they couldn't actually do any sensible actions except to be jealous of Wei Qingwan.

   It is no wonder that Wei Qingwan was able to behave calmly when facing their provocations, because their anger not only did not hurt Wei Qingwan, but also proved Wei Qingwan's outstanding appearance and talent.

  Wei Ruo smiled at Xu Yaojun, and then intentionally brought the topic back to her grandfather's persistent illness: "Does your grandfather still cough after going to bed at night?"

  Xu Yaojun replied: "I don't know after going to bed at night, but when I went to greet him, he almost stopped coughing when we drank tea and chatted with me, and he laughed happily."

  After answering Wei Ruo's question, Xu Yaojun immediately turned the topic back to Wei Qingwan: "You see your sister is weak, as if the wind can blow her away."

   Xu Yaojun glanced at Wei Qingwan with disdain when he spoke.

  Wei Ruo didn't answer this question. She didn't know what kind of contradictions and conflicts there had been between Xu Yaojun and Wei Qingwan, but because she was not familiar with Xu Yaojun, she would not casually discuss such topics with her.

  Wei Qingwan's face was livid. From the first day she entered Tongzhifu to attend classes, Xu Yaojun showed great hostility towards herself.

  She didn't do anything to Xu Yaojun, just because she was praised by her husband for her outstanding performance in class, and then she was ridiculed and deliberately isolated by her.

   She doesn't care about these, she is very clear that it is Xu Yaojun's incompetence and rage, she can't compare with herself to have such a reaction, and to make all kinds of troubles for herself.

  She also knew that except for verbal sarcasm, Xu Yaojun couldn't cause any substantial harm to herself, so she didn't mind it.

  But when Xu Yaojun and Wei Qingruo mocked herself together, she felt that her heart could not be calm and could not be ignored.

  She couldn't stand the people who looked down on her keep saying Wei Qingruo's good!

  The crowd continued to walk along the relatively flat paths around the village.

  Suddenly a peasant woman came over with her husband.

   Seeing someone approaching, the accompanying maid immediately stepped forward to stop him.

   Seeing that she could no longer get close, the woman knelt down facing Wei Ruo from a distance.

   "Miss Wei!"

  Wei Ruo looked at the woman in surprise: "May I ask who you are?"

"Miss Wei, when I went back to Xishan Village with my children to visit my parents last year, there was a natural disaster. You and your father and brother came to our Xishan Village to rescue people without fear of danger, and let the villagers of our Xishan Village get out of trouble. Later, you distributed a lot of food and quilts to us who were affected by the disaster, my parents were able to survive safely."

  The man next to the woman said, "Thank you, Miss Wei, for saving my wife and children!"

  Hearing what the woman and the man said, the ladies and ladies who accompanied them all realized that it was Miss Wei who had done a lot of good things when she was in Xingshan County, and they came to express their thanks.

  Wearing the words, Madam Tongzhi signaled to the maids not to obstruct them, and let the woman and the man get closer.

  Then the woman put the basket in her hand on the ground in front of her: "I hope Miss Wei will accept these eggs."

   "Get up, there are many stones on the road, don't hurt your knees." Wei Ruo hurriedly called for someone to get up, she was really not used to being kneeled like this.

  Xiumei also came forward to help the woman and her husband get up.

  Wei Ruo went on to say to the woman and her husband: "I accept your wishes. Take these eggs back. It doesn't matter if you sell them for money or eat them yourself."

  Eggs are a very precious commodity for the farmers. This basket of eggs must be saved for at least half a month. This gift is very expensive and Wei Ruo cannot accept it.

   "No, no, please accept these eggs, Miss Wei. This is our kindness!" The woman was very persistent and wanted to give the eggs to Wei Ruo.

"No need, really, I have received your wishes, and I am very happy. If you really thank me, treat yourself well, eat enough, wear warm clothes, and live a good life. This is what I hoped for when I did those things. , instead of asking you to save me food and clothing."

  The woman's face was full of emotion.

Wei Ruo said again: "This year will be another hard year. Farming in the fields is very tiring. You should eat more eggs so that you will have the strength to work in the fields and strive for a good harvest this year. And your children too. It’s time to grow his body, give him more eggs to nourish him.”

   "Thank you, Miss Wei, thank you, Miss Wei! Thank you, Miss Wei! Thank you, Miss Wei!" The couple bowed and thanked each other.

   "Okay, let's go back, don't miss today's farm work, these few days are the time for planting rice seedlings, no mistakes are allowed." Wei Ruo said.

  From Wei Ruo's words, it is clear that she is very familiar with farming and knows what she is doing at this time.

  The couple nodded repeatedly, and finally bowed deeply to Wei Ruo before leaving.

   Then Wei Ruo asked Madam Tongzhi to move on.

   As they continued to walk forward, the ladies could not help but praise Wei Ruo.

   "I didn't expect that Ms. Wei could not help but be smart and capable, and also very kind-hearted, and she has done so many good things."

   "Compared with Miss Wei, I feel a little ashamed."

   "Miss Wei, can you tell us in detail about how you helped those disaster-stricken people in Xingshan County?"

   "..."
