A Blessed Daughter

   "The mouth is quite sweet." Sun Sanniang said with a smile.

   "I hope Boss Sun will give me a chance." Wei Ruo said.

   "He said he wanted me to give you a chance, but he didn't give up on the price."

   "Don't blame Boss Sun, this material is hard to come by, and the price really cannot be compromised." Wei Ruo said.

Sun Sanniang sighed and said, "Forget it, since your material is really good, I, Sun Sanniang, agreed to the price you offered, but the premise is that the material you bring over is like this veil. , as long as there is a gap in quality, I, Sun Sanniang, will not accept it."

  Sun Sanniang knew in her heart that this material was not only good, but she had never seen it before, and it was worth the price she paid for it. What she said earlier was just a bargaining trick.

   Seeing that Wei Ruo was so determined, she stopped bargaining, fearing that the deal would run away.

   "Then I will deliver the materials in two days, and ask Boss Sun to inspect the goods in person." Wei Ruo said.

   "It's a deal." Sun Sanniang said.

  By the time Wei Ruo and Sun Sanniang finished talking, Wei Qingwan and Bai Shi were no longer in Caiyunjian shop.

  Wei Ruo specially checked the situation of all the guys in the store, and left after making sure that no one in the store was feeling unwell.

  It's getting late today, Wei Ruo and Xiumei returned to the house where they came back, changed their clothes, and boarded the carriage again.

   "Nurse, did the two guards who came along ask you where I was going?"

  In the carriage, Wei Ruo asked Nanny Zhang.

   "They have asked several times, but the old slave didn't say anything, only said to wait patiently, and the lady will come back after finishing her work." Nanny Zhang replied.

"That's good."

   "But Miss, I'm afraid they will bring this matter up to the old lady when they go back." Nanny Zhang said.

   "Don't worry, let them report if they want to." Wei Ruo said calmly.

  Wei Ruo was not afraid that the two guards would become suspicious, nor was he afraid of what they would say to the old lady when they went back.

  She is not afraid of her reputation being ruined, but the Duke of Zhongyi is worried about her reputation.

  So when the guards went back and reported to the old lady, there was a high probability that they would just keep them tight-lipped.

  At this juncture, the second elder will not punish her for anything, the most is to restrict her from going out next time.

  It was late when Wei Ruo returned home, and had dinner in Changchun Garden.

  Her food has improved a lot in the past few days, and the dishes brought to her in the big kitchen are not only fresh but also rich.

  Just after dinner, Wei Ruo heard that the mansion had invited a doctor for Bai Shi and Wei Qingwan.

  The reason is that after the two of them and their maid came back from the outside, for some reason, there were rashes on their bodies, which were extremely itchy.

  I heard that Mrs. Bai was crying and screaming in pain, and when the itching was unbearable, she tore off a piece of her clothes.

  Wei Qingwan was not much better either, shed a lot of tears, and rolled on the bed, Yun's head was sweating from anxiety, even the old lady was alarmed, and rushed to condolences in person.

   Now the doctor hasn't arrived yet, and the people in the house don't know what happened to them, whether they are infected with some strange disease.

  Xiumei covered her mouth and snickered, what kind of disease is this? This is a special medicinal powder made by her lady!

  When we were in Caiyunjian just now, Wei Ruo smeared the medicinal powder on the fabric that Wei Qingwan had already taken a fancy to. Later, when Wei Qingwan and Bai Shi touched the cloth again, they naturally came into contact with the medicinal powder.

  Anyone who comes into contact with this medicinal powder will develop a red rash and itching, but it will not be life-threatening, and it usually subsides by itself in two or three days.

   Later, when Wei Ruo left Caiyunjian, she specifically checked to see if any of the clerks were unwell, just in case any clerk came into contact with the piece of fabric again, and she didn't want to hurt innocent people by mistake.

  If innocent people come into contact with it accidentally, Wei Ruo has an antidote in hand, and the symptoms will disappear immediately after taking it.

Later, Xiumei went to inquire again, and learned that the doctor invited by the family failed to find out what illness Bai Shi and Wei Qingwan were suffering from, so they only prescribed some common medicines for rashes for the two of them to take. .

  It was a difficult night for the second room and the third room. Both Bai Shi and Wei Qingwan cried and made noises until dawn.

  The symptoms eased the next day, but the rash still did not subside, and the medicine prescribed by the doctor did not have any effect.

  Everyone in the mansion was anxious, especially worried about Wei Qingwan, afraid that her rash would not be good, afraid that she would not be able to recover from the illness, and also afraid that the rash would leave traces, and he would not be able to explain to His Royal Highness Yu Wang in the future.

   After three days like this, Bai's and Wei Qingwan's rashes finally subsided without leaving any scars, and the whole Wei family was relieved.

  February twenty.

  Xu Fengyuan visited Wei Yichen.

  The examination is approaching, and Xu Fengyuan came to the capital to rush for the examination.

  At this time, Xu Fengyuan should have been preparing for the exam in peace at his residence, but instead he came to find Wei Yichen.

  At this moment, in Wei Yichen's study, Xu Fengyuan had a serious face, his handsome face was darkened, and there was a hint of anger between his brows.

   "Why didn't you stop it? You just watched Sister Ruo'er being arranged for such a marriage?" Xu Fengyuan questioned Wei Yichen.

  Before leaving for the capital, he was annoyed when he heard that the marriage arranged by Uncle Zhongyi's mansion for Wei Ruo was to marry Lord Xuanping, who was nearly sixty years old, as a sequel.

  When he arrived in the capital, and heard that Wei Ruo had been given a marriage to the Ninth Prince, who was about to die, he felt mixed feelings again.

  He still felt irritable after thinking about it, so he decided to ask Wei Yichen for clarification.

  Xu Fengyuan said bitterly and annoyed: "I chose to give up and give in. I didn't want to see her do a sequel or marry a widow who is dying. She should marry someone who is better than me and can protect her better than me!"

  Wei Yichen replied blankly: "Brother Xu, you are too impulsive. Now is the critical period of exam preparation. You shouldn't be distracted by these trivial matters."

  Xu Fengyuan looked at Wei Yichen very puzzled: "I'm an outsider, but if Ruo'er is your sister, or someone who has saved your life twice, why are you so indifferent to her?"

Wei Yichen looked at Xu Fengyuan indifferently: "Brother Xu, what do you think I can do? Can anyone change the marriage bestowed by the emperor? Not to mention the marriage bestowed by the emperor, even the previous marriage with the Xuanping Hou Mansion, we are the same Powerless to change anything."

  Xu Fengyuan was silent: "But... Ruo'er...do you really want her to marry and become a widow? How can you bear it?"

  When Xu Fengyuan thought that Wei Ruo was going to marry a dying person, he felt as if his heart was being pressed by a huge rock.

"Brother Xu, if you want to protect the person you want to protect, you should make yourself stronger, otherwise it is empty talk. For you and me, the best way to protect your family is to take the imperial examination well and become an official in the court. Instead of wasting time here."

  Xu Fengyuan was stunned, and looked at Wei Yichen in a daze.

   "So, it's not that you don't care about your eldest sister, but that you know how to protect her?"
