Chapter 204 – Only Missy has charcoal burning in her house.

“I’ll go and carry the silver bone charcoal over to Miss!” Xu Zhushan was a man of action, turning around and going into the house to carry two sacks of silver bone charcoal out.

He carries a bag on one shoulder without the slightest strain.

The milkmaid pushed out the small crate, and the two bags of silver bone charcoal were placed on the crate, tied up with a rope and handed over to Wei Ruo.

When she came out of the Four Treasures, Wei Ruo said to Wei Jin Yi, “Second brother, now that you know my secret, you’ll keep it a secret for me, right?”

“You didn’t avoid me, you brought me here. Doesn’t that mean you have an answer in mind?”

Wei Jin was also happy, happy that she was willing to let him know her secret.

Wei Ruo smiled, “Doesn’t second brother know that I’ll keep it a secret for second brother?”

Wei Jin also said, “Then now we’re even.”

“Uh-huh.” Wei Ruo smiled.

And then the two headed back.

Xiao Bei and Xiu Mei pushed the cart together, because the road was slippery, Xiu Mei slipped in the middle and did not fall, but the person leaned toward Xiao Bei’s body.

Xiao Bei couldn’t help but blush, looking at Xiu Mei with a somewhat fiery gaze.

After returning to the school captain’s mansion, Wei Ruo gave one bag of the two bags of charcoal that he had gotten back to Wei Jin also.

“The share given to each house should not be enough to last until the end of the winter, so take these and use them first,” Wei Ruo said to Wei Jin Yi. Wei Ruo said to Wei Jin.

“No, I wasn’t even in the mansion the other day, there’s still plenty of share left, I can still use it for some more days.” Wei Jin also politely refused.

How could Wei Ruo not know that this was Wei Jin Yi’s polite way of talking to herself.

When the mansion gave each courtyard a share, it took into account the fact that Wei Yichen and Wei Jin also spent less time at the mansion, so the charcoal that was originally allocated to Yingzhu Yuan was not that much.

“Second brother don’t have to be polite with me, I move these two bags today is counted on second brother’s share, second brother and don’t worry, my nurse also prepared a lot for me, I want to go over to pick up at any time, don’t have to worry about not enough to use.”

Wei Jin was also gracious, looking at Wei Ruo’s smiling face, he nodded his head and accepted it.

After returning to Listening Pine Court, Wei Ruo asked Xiumei to attach her ear, “If anyone asks where this charcoal came from, tell them this ……”

Xiu Mei asked after hearing this, “Why did Miss say that?”

Wei Ruo explained, “Now that all the charcoal in the mansion is about to be burned out, and only I have charcoal burning in this courtyard, there may be trouble if people see it, and if people know that I have a source of charcoal, there will inevitably be some trouble.”

“I know.” Xiu Mei wrote down Wei Ruo’s words.

After Wei Jin Yi went back to the house, Xiao Bei started the charcoal fire.

“Young master, this is really silver bone charcoal. Missy is too rich, this kind of charcoal can only be burned in the homes of those dignitaries in the Prefecture.” Xiao Bei couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.

Then Xiao Bei couldn’t help but be curious: ”Young master, what do you think is the relationship between those two stores we went to today and Missy? That Four Treasures Store wouldn’t be owned by Missy, would it?”

Today from the four treasures Zhai out, Wei Ruo to Wei Jin also said to keep it secret, but the specific secret what also did not say, her relationship with those two stores also did not go into detail.

Wei Jin did not pursue this either, but just naturally gave Wei Ruo an affirmative answer.

“It didn’t matter what the relationship was, and she didn’t ask me in detail about it.” ….

As far as Wei Jin Yi was concerned, these things were not important, what mattered was their trust.

It doesn’t matter what kind of secrets the other person has as long as they trust each other.

It’s been two days, and because of the snowy road closure, the Wei family’s charcoal has been late in arriving.

Not only did the underlings run out of charcoal, but the charcoal in the master’s room was also cut off.

Without the charcoal fire to keep her warm, Wei Qingwan’s room was freezing like an ice cellar, and the house was colder than the outside.

During the day I can move around more, but at night I can’t even sleep, and the blanket is like a piece of raw iron on my body, hard, cold and damp.

“How can I sleep here?” Wei Qingwan just laid down and got up again.

“Miss, don’t be in such a hurry.

The word is that the charcoal will be delivered early tomorrow morning, now that the house’s maids and young masters are all like this, they can only stay up.” Cui He comforted.

“Yesterday is also this way to say, the result today is not still not waiting for it?” Wei Qingwan’s tone is full of resentment.

“This ……” Cui Huo doesn’t know how to comfort.

“What about Wei Qingruo’s side?” Wei Qingwan asked.

“Missy s side …… doesn t seem to be affected, and I heard the maid who went to deliver the food say that Missy s room was very warm.”

These days because of the inconvenience of snow, Yun asked the kitchen to make it and send it to each courtyard.

It was also because of this that the subordinates in the mansion realized that Wei Ruo’s place was different from the others, and that the charcoal that the others in the mansion couldn’t use didn’t seem to be in short supply at all at her place.

“Why?” Wei Qingwan was astonished.

“This slave girl also do not know, may be the big miss with their own private treasury money to buy, after all, the big miss’s private treasury ……” Cui He point to the end.

Wei Ruo’s richness is known to all in the school captain’s residence.

“Isn’t it true that you can’t buy charcoal even if you have money nowadays?” Wei Qingwan asked again.

“I don’t know, perhaps it’s because Missy has a special channel, nowadays Missy knows a lot of people in the capital city!” Cui He said.

Originally, when she knew just one Mrs. Yuan, Wei Ruo was able to have quite a few more privileges than the others in the mansion.

Nowadays, because of a loquat cream, she had met an unknown number of powerful people in the capital city.

It’s also entirely possible to say that there are more doors than anyone else in the house.

Upon hearing this Wei Qingwan’s heart had a plan, after thinking for a moment she said to Cui He, “Go and call your old mother over.”

Cui Huo nodded, while calling Sister Li over.

Wei Qingwan also did not say much, will just Cui He with her will be those things to repeat.

After hearing this, Sister Li immediately understood: “Missy is not kind, since there are channels to get the charcoal fire, how can one person enjoy it alone, letting the other people in the house suffer from the cold, the other people are not so bad, but the lady is her mother, how can she not care about her mother’s warmth and coldness or even her death or life?”

Wei Qingwan said, “Perhaps we misunderstood sister, things are not as we thought.”

Sister Li hummed lightly: ”Misunderstanding or not misunderstanding ask clearly to know, I see here is not much misunderstanding, to say the sky, she this practice is not like words. Miss you wait, I’ll go to find Madam to say.”

Sister Li finished speaking and left, not giving Wei Qingwan a chance to stop herself.

By the time Wei Qingwan opened her mouth to call out to her, she had already walked out of the room.

“Are you telling the truth?” Yun frowned.

“How could I dare to lie about this, it’s true or false.

“If I find out that you have lied and wronged Missy, this time it won’t be as simple as punishing you to go to the manor for three months! I will drive you out of the house and let your old bones die in the freezing cold outside!” Yun’s expression was stern.
