    “I still have to thank you ma’am for cooperating with me.” Wei Ruo said with a smile.

    Wei Ruo told Mrs. Yuan in advance about her own little idea, she just wanted to take advantage of today’s occasion to promote her new fabric.

    Although the two were already very familiar, but when doing this kind of thing, Wei Ruo still didn’t intend to go behind Mrs. Yuan’s back, and said clearly in advance about anything, and got the other party’s consent before she did it.

    “A small matter, no need to be polite with me, not to mention I also got you a good material. Honestly, this material I really like to look at, this color is really special, turn back to me to make a dress, not to mention in this Taizhou province, even back to the capital, I’m afraid it is also a unique, no one will be able to collide with me with the color.” Mrs. Yuan smiled gently.

    Saying this, Mrs. Yuan asked Wei Ruo: “Is this fabric really as rare as you said, or did you deliberately say it was rare so that they would pay a high price for it?”

    “It’s really low, there are only eight horses out in total today, and by the end of the year it’s estimated to be only twenty.”

    Wei Ruo had not intended to make more than one, for one thing, these dyes were matched by Wei Ruo himself, and to dye much more, Wei Ruo was too late to match.

    Secondly, this kind of material of hers is mainly sold to the dignitaries, that is, the fewer the better, the more scarce the higher the price, once the mass production, it becomes worthless.

    “Then I’ll have to treasure this one you sent me even more.” Mrs. Yuan said, followed by Mrs. Yuan commenting on Wei Ruo, “What do you think is inside your head, how can you have so many ghost ideas day in and day out, and do your best to make some rare novelties come out.”

    Wei Ruo explained, “I like to read some miscellaneous books, and came into contact with some capable people, so naturally I learned some things that ordinary people can’t learn.”

    “Come on, when and if I have another daughter, I’ll let her learn from you, and in the future, she’ll also be a woman’s Zhuge, a woman’s woman.” Mrs. Yuan half-jokingly and half-seriously said.

    “Good, then I’ll wait for your good news, ma’am.”

    ###

    During the feast, Yun and Wei Qingwan had been trying to find an opportunity to hold Wei Ruo accountable as well as find an opportunity to clarify for Wei Qingwan in front of all the ladies.

    Nay, Wei Ruo and the ladies didn’t give them mother and daughter this opportunity.

    Wei Ruo has been accompanied by Mrs. Yuan they can not see, the other ladies have been gathered to discuss other things they can not intervene.

    It wasn’t until the banquet was over and the people left the house that Wei Ruo returned to the carriage that Yun had a chance to speak to her again.

    Because she was holding her breath in her heart, Yun wasn’t in much of a mood for this feast.

    When Wei Ruo boarded the carriage, she saw the two of them, Yun and Wei Qingwan, who were sitting in the carriage with ugly faces, and knew what was going to happen next.

    But Wei Ruo wasn’t afraid, and still had a light smile on her face, looking like she was in a very good mood.

    “You’re still laughing,” Yun said coldly, her face turning blue.

    “What are you saying mother, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, you should be happy shouldn’t you?” Wei Ruo asked rhetorically.

    “What were your intentions when you just said in front of so many ladies that your sister had received the family law?” Yun questioned.

    “It wasn’t an accidental slip of the tongue.” Wei Ruo said without changing color.

    “Spill the beans? You don’t want to swindle me! I think you’re clearly doing it on purpose!” Yun’s face was stern, her eyes dripping with reproach and exasperation.

    “Sister, it is often said that family scandals should not be publicized, I am indeed in the wrong, but if sister publicizes this matter, it is the Wei family’s reputation that will be hurt.” Wei Qingwan’s face was permeated with a color of pain and regret.

    “Is it strange to speak out of turn? Mother and sister didn’t greet me beforehand and tell me what to say and do today, you guys came without saying a word and then sang in front of the crowd without saying a word, how would I know what role I should play and what to say in it?” Wei Ruo asked rhetorically.

    Then Wei Ruo’s eyes turned to Wei Qingwan’s body: “As for what Wan Wan sister said to hurt the reputation of the Wei family, I do not know where to start, said the leakage of sister by the family law, although it will damage the sister’s reputation, but hurt the reputation of the Wei family should not be, can be strictly enforced on the home of the children of the family law is the embodiment of the family’s rigorous governance, in the family’s reputation should be beneficial to the right. “

    “You are eloquent and articulate!” Yun said in a cold voice.

    “Does mother think there is anything wrong with what I said? If there is a problem with any of my words, mother can bring it up.” Wei Ruo said.

    Can you speak eloquently? She has suffered from the loss of the matter of fact, when she said that she was not the one who pushed Wei Qingwan, it was Sister Li, Yun simply did not believe her.

    So now she’d learned her lesson when dealing with them, there was no need to base it too much on facts, how to be favorable and how to dumb them down.

    “Do you still think what you said is okay? It could have been explained clearly to the public today, but with you stirring things up, it’s all for naught!” Yun scolded.

    “Mother said this can be too wronged me, I did omit the matter of sister Wanwan being subjected to the family law, but the damage to our Wei family girl’s reputation is ultimately caused by sister Wanwan’s fornication with someone, mother should be able to distinguish who’s responsible for it a bit more.” Wei Ruo said.

    “I’m talking about today, don’t you pull anything else.”

    “Mother is setting aside the facts, setting aside the greatest responsibility, and such a ruling makes it hard for me not to suspect that mother is just favoring my sister and not looking at me as a daughter, in which case I have nothing to say.”

    After Wei Ruo finished speaking, he turned around and lifted the curtain to jump from the carriage.

    Yun obviously didn’t expect Wei Ruo to make such a move, and after freezing for a moment, she pulled open the curtain of the car and poked her head out to question Wei Ruo: “What do you want to do?”

    “I’ll walk back on my own, since mother is so biased, mother can forgive my sister for any mistakes she makes, while I have to be harshly reprimanded by mother for even the slightest problem. After all, I’m an outsider in the Wei family, and I don’t have mother’s heart, so I don’t have to stay in the car anymore.”

    Wei Ruo said very sadly, and twisted her head and left after saying that.

    Where Yun and Wei Qingwan couldn’t see, the corners of Wei Ruo’s mouth were upturned.

    “You come back!” Yun said anxiously.

    It was the time for the banquet to break up, and there were guests coming and going who were attending today.

    I wonder what they would think if they saw their oldest daughter walking outside.

    Wei Ruo pretended not to hear and continued walking.

    Yun had no choice but to give in, “Alright, alright, I won’t ask any more about this matter, you come up.”

    Wei Ruo still did not intend to get on the carriage, “Mother there is no need to be like this, this carriage is small, it’s too crowded to sit three people, mother should still bring my sister back to the mansion, I’ll walk back by myself. Back when father comes back from the victory, I will personally apologize to father and explain what I disobeyed mother today.”

    At those words, Yun’s heart thumped.
