    Hearing this Wei Ruo’s gaze glanced towards Wei Qingwan’s body.

    Wei Qingwan was half hidden behind Yun, and when Wei Ruo’s gaze fell on her, she raised her head slightly, her eyes timidly meeting Wei Ruo’s.

    Tsk, this frightened little beast-like look, those who didn’t know would think Wei Ruo had just done something to her.

    Wei Ruo’s eyes returned to Yun’s, “Reason.”

    “Wanwan has been helping me take care of my family’s affairs for a long time, and is very experienced in all aspects, so letting her follow you can help you with your work,” Yun said. Yun said.

    “No need, there are plenty of people like that in the Yuan residence, and there are also specialized accounting sisters to help me.” Wei Ruo politely refused.

    Yun fixed her mind, before she came she had already warned herself not to be angry with the eldest daughter today, but when the eldest daughter opened her mouth, it always caused her heart to flare up with anger.

    Yun patiently explained to Wei Ruo, “Ruo’er, your sister lacks some experience in dealing with big events, so you taking her there will help her exercise.”

    “Just to exercise your abilities?” Wei Ruo’s mouth held a smile at the corners, her eyes bright and penetrating, taking in every look of Yun and Wei Qingwan in front of her.

    “In short, this matter is not bad for you, in Wanwan in the Wei family has more benefits, you as the first eldest daughter, you should be more care of the sisters at home. Yun’s attitude is tough.

    “Alright then.” Wei Ruo agreed.

    She suddenly agreed, and in turn gave Yun and Wei Qingwan a whole lot of discomfort.

    “You promise?” Yun was a little unsure.

    “Didn’t mother say that as the eldest daughter, she should help her sisters at home? I’m just taking her to Yuan Mansion to help me share some of the burden, what’s so bad about me agreeing to that?” Wei Ruo said.

    That’s a great way to say it, and it falls as well as it can for an elder daughter.

    It’s what happened to Wei Ruo that makes it a little hard to believe.

    Yun and Wei Qingwan didn’t respond for a while, and Wei Ruo said: ”What are you staring at? Aren’t you going? I’ll leave if you don’t follow me, I’m in a hurry.”

    After Wei Ruo finished speaking, she turned around and walked in the direction of the carriage, Wei Qingwan saw this and hurriedly followed.

    After boarding the carriage, Wei Qingwan carefully looked in Wei Ruo’s direction and saw her leaning against the soft cushion and squinting her eyes to rest, and for a while she couldn’t fathom her mind.

    Wei Ruo knew that Wei Qingwan was looking at herself, but was too lazy to speak and just lay comfortably against the soft cushion.

    In the past two days, the opening of the land for disaster relief has just started, and there are so many things in a mess that she can’t even care about her own store, let alone care about Wei Qingwan’s small mind.

    She rested when she could on the way to and from the school captain’s mansion and Yuan’s mansion, saving herself some strength and energy.

    After the carriage arrived at Yuan Mansion, as usual, Mrs. Yuan’s personal maid, Light Yi, was waiting at the door.

    When Light Yi saw that there was an additional Wei Qingwan in today’s group of companions, doubts flashed in her eyes, but she did not ask questions, instead skillfully going forward to welcome Wei Ruo.

    “Big girl has worked hard.” Light Clothes led Wei Ruo inside, completely ignoring Wei Qingwan who was following Wei Ruo’s ass.

    Wei Qingwan could only follow behind with Xiu Mei, like an accompanying maid.

    “Oh yeah, Miss Light Clothes, there’s something I need to trouble you with.” Wei Ruo hooked his finger at Light Clothes.

    Light clothes will be busy lowering his head and putting his ear to it. ….

    After Wei Ruo whispered two sentences with his ear, Light Yi nodded in understanding.

    And then she said to the other little girl next to her, “Take the Wei family’s eldest girl to the Huichun Pavilion.”

    The maid led the order, while Wei Qingwan was at a loss.

    “Sister, where is this asking me to go?” Wei Qingwan inquired with a puzzled expression.

    “Didn’t you come with me to learn? However, the matters involved are very important nowadays, and there is no room for error. The helpers that Mrs. Yuan and the Seventh Highness have hired for me are experts in managing accounts for many years, and I am afraid that my sister won’t be able to keep up for a while, so I ask you to practise for a while, and then come with us after we are sure that your sister is capable of doing so.”

    Wei Qingwan’s face stiffened, “Sister, I help my mother to manage the affairs of the home to look after the store books no less than sister.”

    In Wei Qingwan’s opinion, Wei Qingruo’s advantage was nothing more than the

    Knowing more about farming isn’t as impressive as looking at bookkeeping.

    In terms of managing the feeds and looking at the accounts, Wei Qingwan thinks she won’t lose out to Wei Qingruo.

    Wei Ruo said, “Sister still go to sharpen some first, if the disaster relief matter is wrong the consequences are very serious.”

    After Wei Ruo finished speaking, Light Yi gave the maid a wink, and then Light Yi herself and that maid pulled Wei Qingwan in the direction of Huichun Pavilion.

    Wei Qingwan was reluctant to go, but being held up by two maids, she couldn’t afford not to go.

    Being in the governor’s residence, she didn’t dare to act recklessly, and finally went to Huichun Pavilion reluctantly.

    After arriving at the Huichun Pavilion, Light Yi invited Wei Qingwan into one of the guest rooms, and then took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone and a copy of the Nine Chapters of Arithmetic to Wei Qingwan.

    “Second girl, this book of nine chapters of arithmetic also please study it well, when you have accomplished your studies, you can help the eldest girl and a group of female teachers to deal with the accounts of opening up the land for disaster relief,” said Light Yi to Wei Qingwan. Light clothes said to Wei Qingwan.

    Wei Qingwan’s face was ironic: “I’ve already read this book originally, so I don’t need to read it again.”

    “Is that so? Then please ask the second girl to write it silently once, to prove that the second girl does have the skill.” Light Clothes said.

    Wei Qingwan where to write out, read is true, but read does not mean that you can recite the whole text word for word.

    The main books she could familiarize herself with and recite on a regular basis were books such as “Women’s Precepts” and “Women’s Studies”.

    A book like “Nine Chapters of Arithmetic” is usually studied by men, and she can familiarize herself with it already more than the average woman, so how can she be asked to memorize and write it word for word?

    “Could it be that my sister can mime this book?” Wei Qingwan asked rhetorically.

    “It doesn’t matter whether the eldest girl can write silently or not; she has other talents, and the whole thing is because of her. But the second girl is different, the second girl is here to help the eldest girl with her accounts and calculations, so naturally she needs these skills. Unless the second girl thinks she has the same skills as the eldest girl, does the second girl have them?” Light Clothes asked.

    Wei Qingwan was unable to answer by Light Yi’s question and her face was suffocatingly red.

    “It seems that the second girl can’t write silently, so you can study this book of Nine Chapters of Arithmetic here, and if there is anything you need, you can call out to someone, there are servants at the door to serve you.”

    After Light Yi finished speaking, she turned around and left the room, leaving Wei Qingwan alone in the room.

    The fact that there were underlings waiting at the door also meant that someone would be watching Wei Qingwan, and it was impossible for her to escape.

    Wei Qingwan looked at the books, ink, paper and inkstones in front of her, she finally understood why Wei Qingruo had agreed so readily when she went out.

    Wei Qingruo had planned this from the beginning! She didn’t even want to genuinely bring her to participate in the disaster relief!

    Wei Qingwan was so angry that her eyes were moist and red, however, at this moment, the entire guest room was only her, no one could see her aggression, and no one would comfort her.
