Chapter 374 – Don’t be modest with each other!

“I’m not sure about this matter, I still need to wait for news from the court.” Wei Mingting replied.

He just led the generals to fight well and guard the country’s gates the rest of the things he did not think too much.

Wei Yi Lin picked up the conversation, “Daddy will already be rising in the ranks! Because daddy is the most powerful person I’ve ever seen! Winning battles and defending the country, a great hero!”

Wei Ruo didn’t say anything the entire time, and Wei Mingting’s eyes fell on her, specifically inquiring, “How does Ruo’er feel about this battle?”

“Since it is the best, I think that at least for a period of time the Japanese will not dare to commit any more crimes.” Wei Ruo said.

Whether or not it can make the other party completely break the idea of aggression Wei Ruo does not know, but at least this deterrent effect is played.

Wei Mingting said, “Yes, it would be better if we could exchange it for long-lasting coastal peace.”

“Father, since we have captured the other side’s ships this time, can we utilize them to build a navy that belongs to us and counter-attack the Japanese nation, once and for all, to put an end to future troubles?” Wei Ruo inquired.

“If the child idea is very good, just this matter is not the ship thing, my dynasty shipbuilding technology is not worse than the Japanese, my dynasty in the early days, the ship built had to go down to the South China Sea, traveled to the Zhou Dynasty. Now although there is this technology, but the treasury is empty, Pingnei still have more than enough, not to mention the sea expedition.” Wei Mingting explained.

This matter is also very helpless, under the natural and man-made disasters in the past two years, the country is increasingly exhausted, even if they have the intention to counter-attack, but also lack the appropriate supplies.

Wei Ruo asked again, “So only when the food problem is solved, the people are rich, and the treasury is full, will there be a chance for a counteroffensive?”

“Yes, by and large.” Wei Mingting’s tone had a hint of helplessness in it.

Wei Yi Lin also understood the little face seriously said, “Big sister is so powerful, when big sister helps everyone to plant the field well, everyone has food, father will be able to lead the generals to go to the lair of the short winter melon to kill those short winter melon people!”

Although Wei Yi Lin’s words were a bit childish, they were also the wishes of Wei Ming Ting’s heart.

“My father also hopes so.” Wei Mingting said, and immediately looked at Wei Ruodao, “Ruo-er, you have a great deal of credit for the Taizhou Prefecture having such a bright future this year, my father is proud of you.”

“Father overrated father and generals bathing in blood to protect the country is the honor of the people of Taizhou Province.” Wei Ruo said.

“My father is merely doing his duty as I should.”

Wei Yi Lin said, “Father and sister, you shouldn’t be modest with each other, you’re all great! You’re all the pride of our family!”

Wei Ruo glanced at Wei Yi Lin, this little guy’s attitude towards her was really getting better now, he would even say that she was the pride of the family.

Wei Yi Lin found Wei Ruo look at their own eyes, suddenly some embarrassed, don’t open the head, muttered in a small voice: “Why, I said originally is the truth well …… my martial arts hall of brothers and sisters have said so …… “

“And the brothers and sisters at your martial arts school complimented me?”

“Uh-huh, complimented ah, they said you got a lot of them to eat, great credit!” Wei Yi Lin replied.

And Wei Yi Lin together with the martial arts are not all well-born, there are a lot of poor family, in order to make ends meet to send to the martial arts school to learn, to be accomplished can go to the Yamen as an officer to seek a good job.

So these people are full of gratitude and admiration for the series of actions Wei Ruo-led to implement the disaster relief and food production.

Wei Ruo smiled, okay, at least this stinky kid looks a lot smoother now than when she first came back to the house.

Yun couldn’t help but feel a twinge of warmth in her heart as she watched the interaction between her husband and her son and daughter from the sidelines.

The eldest daughter is still quite inviting when she’s not being aggressive, and manages to be nice and cozy with her family as well.

After talking with his family, Wei Mingting returned to the inner room to bathe and change.

Yun Clothing Wei Mingting put on the civilian clothes he wore at home, and somewhat apprehensively spoke with him about the letter from the Zhongyi Burial House in the capital.

“Big brother wrote to say that the Sixth Prince is willing to promote him and let him make up a fat job, but it needs your cooperation, Husband. Big brother also said that you befriending the Sixth Prince will help our Bofu grow stronger, so that you, Husband, should think about it.” Yun said.

Wei Mingting’s face sank: “Big brother is confused, the competition for the Crown Prince is in full swing, if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss and never be able to recover. And my Zhongyi Burial House has always been a purist, not forming parties, only loyal to the court, loyal to the people, protecting the family and defending the country, and must not conspire with the crown prince.”

“That’s what my concubine thought as well, it’s just that it’s not a good idea for my concubine to respond to this matter, so I’ve been waiting for my husband to come back to make a decision after receiving the letter.” Yun said.

“I know, later I will write a letter to big brother showing my attitude for someone to take it back to the capital.” Wei Mingting replied.

Yun’s heart that had been hanging in the air for many days also finally fell, the two of them were of the same mind on these big things.

This time her husband came back she was worried that there would still be suspicion because of what happened last time, but now it seems that she was overly worried.

And then Yun looked at Wei Mingting, hesitating for a moment before taking the initiative to confess: “On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I had Wanwan go to Mrs. Yuan’s feast as well, with the idea of dispelling the outside world’s speculations about her.”

Wei Mingting paused his movements for a moment, then said, “This matter you take the measure is good, just briefly let Wanwan attend the feast can, but not unauthorized cancellation of her punishment, the state state law and family rules, the punishment should be punished.”

“Yes, Concubine knows, I will take good care of the situation.” Yun breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately her husband did not blame her and still trusted her as well.

Returning from Cang Yun Yuan, Wei Ruo went to Ying Zhu Yuan and knocked on the courtyard door, but no one answered.

I caught the boy and asked him about it, and learned that just as Wei Mingting returned to the house, Wei Jin also went out of the courtyard.

Getting such a reply Wei Ruo did not have too much carelessness, because the words of goodbye had already been said last night, and not meeting today can save the two hearts from being reluctant to part with each other.

Just looking at the closed courtyard door in front of her, Wei Ruo’s heart still gave birth to a trace of loss.

After Wei Ruo walked back to his own place, he sat in front of his book case and fumed for a while.

Xiu Mei came in and saw Wei Ruo sitting frozen, she busily comforted, “Miss, don’t be sad, the second young master will come back again in a while.”

“I’m fine, I’m just slightly lost, there’s one less person to talk to in the mansion.” Wei Ruo said.

“Yes, with the departure of the second young master, there is again no one in this house for you, miss, to befriend.” Xiu Mei regretted.

“Where is there no more, don’t I still have you?” Wei Ruo said.

Xiu Mei immediately patted her own chest and assured, “Don’t worry, miss, I will always be by your side.”

Wei Ruo continued, “Well, I don’t want to think about Second Brother, I have to get busy with the fall harvest.”

The fall harvest has begun, Wei Ruo now can have a lot of things to be busy, do not have time to daze thinking about east to west.
