Blessed Daughter

Chapter 377 Cheap Filial Piety

"It turns out that mother has already figured out a solution." Wei Ruo said with a smile, "It's just that mother has forgotten that the government has already formulated the rules, and the distribution of the new land that has been reclaimed is based on the money paid by each family. , food, and people have been converted, and how much the Wei family can share has already been determined."

"Aren't you from the Wei family? Isn't your effort from the Wei family? As long as you want to share more land, who would dare to gossip?" Yun asked a series of questions.

"But I don't want to. I just want to earn a good reputation for myself, and I don't want to exchange it for land." Wei Ruo replied, his eyes were bright and transparent, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

"What did you say?"

Wei Ruo explained unhurriedly: "Does mother think there is a problem? Isn't it good to be a lady praised by everyone, and to do things that are beneficial to the reputation of the captain's mansion? Money can be obtained at any time, land Other ways can also be exchanged, but this good reputation is not so easy to come by.”

Wei Ruo continued: "Mother thinks, I am not only earning my reputation for myself, but also for our Wei family. My sister has ruined the public morals, ruined the reputation of our Wei family girl, and made the Wei family suffer from gossip. As the eldest daughter, it’s good to do something good now and gain a good reputation, isn’t it?”

"Furthermore, my father was an official in the court, shed blood on the battlefield for the people, and became a hero praised by everyone. As his daughter, I cannot hold him back. I should also establish a good image of giving for the people without asking for anything in return. .”

Yun's words were choked back by Wei Ruo's righteous speech.

Every word and every word she said was well-founded, and not only did it sound like nothing was wrong, on the contrary, it was quite righteous.

Wei Ruo looked at Yun's appearance of wanting to scold him but couldn't find anything to say, and smiled slightly: "Does the mother think what the daughter said makes sense?"

Yun's face was sullen: "I let you talk, what else do you want me to say? Anyway, you have never considered the family affairs at all! You said that I am partial to Wanwan, and you don't even think about why, I Whenever there is something that bothers you, Wanwan is filial and sensible, but you never think about my family."

"Oh? My sister knows the cold and the hot? Did she help you solve the problem? Why did my mother find me and come to her?"

"She's not as capable as you." Yun retorted.

"So it's just a matter of talking about filial piety when you touch your mother? It doesn't cost money or effort to get a good reputation for filial piety. This is a very good deal!" Wei Ruo chuckled lightly.

"How did you talk?" Yun frowned.

"Does mother think there is something wrong with what I said? Why don't mother try to let my sister use all her private money to supplement the family?" Wei Ruo asked.

"She doesn't have much private money." Yun replied.

"She still has a few sets of clothes, and if she sells them, she can get a lot of money." Wei Ruo suggested.

"She only has a few sets in total, and she still has to go out to meet people."

"If she is really as willing to help her mother as she said, she will sell the jewelry and give the money to her mother without her asking. In the end, it's just a low cost and no money spent."

After saying this, Wei Ruo got up and said to Yun before leaving:

"Mother's problem is that my daughter can't help for the time being. If I think of a good way, I'll come to my mother again. I still have some things to do today, so I won't bother my mother any longer."

Then Wei Ruo quickly left Cangyun Garden without giving Yun Shi any time to react.

Yun Shi took several deep breaths to keep herself from bursting out.

After a while, Mrs. Yun turned to Cuiping, who was waiting beside her, and said, "Look at her rebellious appearance, how can I have a good conversation with her! It's good not to quarrel."

Cuiping comforted softly: "Madam calm down."

Cuiping couldn't say much about the other side, she felt that what the eldest lady said just now was a little reasonable, but it was hard for her to say this as the wife's personal servant girl.

###

On the third day of September, the third day after the end of the autumn exam, Wei Yichen returned to Xiaowei's mansion.

When he returned to the mansion, he went to see Yun Shi immediately, and Yun Shi asked him about the exam with a happy face.

"It's okay." Wei Yichen didn't have much expression on his face, neither much joy nor sadness.

"Chen'er, don't hide it from your mother, did you not perform well this time?" Yun asked worriedly.

"No."

"Chen'er, don't be sad if you don't perform well this time, we can wait another three years." Yun continued.

Yun was more worried about Wei Yichen than her son not performing well this time.

After all, such a big incident happened before the exam this time, the son's mood was affected, and it was reasonable for him not to perform well.

"Really not. Don't worry, mother, I performed very normally in this exam. Although I am not sure whether I can win the exam, I have no regrets." Wei Yichen replied.

"Really?" Seeing her son's expression, Yun felt somewhat disbelieving.

"it is true."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Yun's heart fell back.

Wei Yichen looked at Yun and asked, "I heard that on the Mid-Autumn Festival, my mother took the second younger sister who was supposed to be punished to Madam Yuan's banquet?"

"Did Ruo'er tell you? Why did she tell you these things just after you returned home?" Yun asked.

"It's not what Ruo'er said. I haven't seen her since the provincial capital, and she never sent me any news." Wei Yichen explained, "Mother doesn't need to relate this matter to my eldest sister. Now I'm asking About your second sister."

Facing Wei Yichen's sharp gaze, Yun's face showed guilt: "Chen'er, the rumors outside are not good for our Wei family. I let your second sister go to the banquet to dispel the suspicion of her from the outside world, otherwise everyone will see her. If you don't go, you will really think that she has done something outrageous."

"Didn't she just do something outrageous?"

"That's true, but she is my daughter or your sister. It's always good to help cover up some things, not to mention there is Ruo'er? You can't even ruin Ruo'er's reputation, right? "

"If Ruo'er is capable of earning a good reputation for himself, there is no need to worry. What's more, with my father and I here, we should strive to be strong and honor our ancestors. As long as the family is prominent, Ruo'er will not worry about not having a good husband in the future."

Yun Shi was dumbfounded, and didn't know how to answer the words for a moment.

Just when the atmosphere between the mother and son was getting colder, a flustered servant came running in from outside the door.

"Ma'am, Eldest Young Master, something is wrong! Something happened to Second Young Master!"
