Chapter 429 – Goodbye Jue Xie

Wei Ruo could see that Lin Fang was worried about her prying into Wei Jin Yi’s affairs with her, so she answered with extra care, afraid of accidentally revealing something.

“Don’t worry, I didn’t want to probe anything, I just care about second brother. I think that second brother is only taking time out of his busy schedule to meet with me this time, I don’t know when I’ll see you again next time, the chances of me meeting second brother are still few, so I still hope that on weekdays, elder brother Ke and sister Lin will help to take care of second brother some more.” Wei Ruo explained to Lin Fang.

“Eldest Miss mustn’t say that, serving the master is a duty that the few of us should fulfill.” Lin Fang was busy saying.

“Thank you all anyway, for always being by Second Brother’s side.” Wei Ruo said.

Wei Ruo was not aware of the explicit relationship between her second brother and these people, but these people had followed her second brother since he was still in Xing Shan County, from which she felt that it was very likely that these people did not become her second brother’s entourage because of a trend of interest, and thus Wei Ruo felt that she should thank them for their loyalty to her second brother.

Lin Fang was a bit touched that Missy didn’t know about their master and them people, but still cared about their master and respected them people.

At the same time Lin Fang was also a little worried, so concerned about their master Missy know their master’s true identity will not be ……

So Lin Fang tentatively asked Wei Ruo: “Eldest Miss Wei family wants to marry you off to Marquis Xuanping, what are you going to do?”

“Naturally, I won’t really marry over, it’s not easy to want the Wei family to change their minds, but it’s not hard to want the marriage to go yellow, but across the board, no one can fall in favor.”

Wei Ruo think very clearly, barefoot not afraid of wearing shoes, as long as she is open to go out, do not take their own reputation as a matter of fact, there is nothing to fear.

Listening to Wei Ruo’s light tone, Lin Fang couldn’t help but be a little impressed, even for a jianghu woman like her, she might not be able to think so freely on the matter of marriage.

“Missy, if you had a choice, what kind of person would you want to marry?” Lin Fang continued to ask Wei Ruo.

“Naturally, it’s someone who can give me freedom, he can’t get in my way, and I can do whatever I want outside.” Wei Ruo replied.

“Like this? So the eldest young lady doesn’t have to marry a crofter?” Lin Fang asked, a faintly undetectable surprise in her tone.

“Sister Lin you think that there is no freedom to be found in that deep house? It must only be possible for crop farmers or free-spirited jianghu people like you.” Wei Ruo said.

“Maybe there is?” Lin Fang said.

Wei Ruo smiled and shook her head, “Such a person in a deep house is not to be found, unless he is dead.”

Immediately after Wei Ruo changed the topic, “By the way, Sister Lin, how do you feel with the skin cream I gave you last time?”

Lin Fang said with a pleased face, “Very good, I used it in March and felt my skin was also much whiter and tenderer!”

“Then I’ll send some over to Sister Lin in a couple days.”

“How can that be fun!”

“There’s nothing to be ashamed of, we women should take care of our skin.”

“What’s the use of my being well-protected, the man in my house is a rough man, he won’t be able to tell what I’m dressed up as.”

“That’s not easy to say, maybe Brother Ke noticed it but didn’t say so, or maybe because he loves you too much, no matter what you look like, he thinks it’s the most beautiful. Furthermore, it’s not necessarily for the sake of men that we women love to look pretty, it’s most important that we ourselves look comfortable and good looking, and we don’t need to care about what other people think.”

“Miss, you have some sense.” Lin Fang nodded in agreement.

Between words, Lin Fang had already finished Wei Ruo’s makeup, and inside the mirror, Xu Wo right’s face appeared, except for her eyes, she couldn’t see any trace of Wei Ruo herself.

Then Wei Ruo came out of the room, and Wei Jin Yi was already waiting at the door.

Wei Ruo smiled playfully at Wei Jin also, “Second brother, sister-in-law Ke’s craftsmanship is so good that I can’t help but abduct her from here.”

“If Ruo’er wants it, let Lin Fang go with you.”

Wei Ruo was joking, but Wei Jin Yi was serious.

“No, no, no I was just kidding.” Wei Ruo hurriedly clarified, then said, “Let’s get going, it’s getting late.”

“Good.”

Because she had changed into men’s clothing, Wei Ruo no longer rode in a carriage, instead choosing to ride a horse with Wei Jin Yi.

Horseback riding allows you to see the streets and feel the bustle of the capital better than riding in a car.

Xie Ying’s Tong De Tang in the capital opened on White Tiger Street in the west of the capital, which was one of the four busiest streets in the capital.

A store on such a lively and busy street should be worth a lot of silver.

Entering inside the store, Wei Ruo asked the fellow about the shopkeeper.

“This young gentleman, just look for me if you want to buy medicine, our shopkeeper is busy at the moment.” The fellow was full of smiles as he enthusiastically answered Wei Ruo’s questions.

“Then I want to see your boss.” Wei Ruo added.

“Young gentleman, our boss that’s even more can’t see, you still with the small, you want to buy what medicinal herbs. Our store ah all kinds of rare and valuable medicinal herbs have everything, if we do not have it in the store, then you go to another store probably can not buy.”

“I’m not here to buy herbs, I’m here to talk to your boss about something.” Wei Ruo explained.

“This ……” said the fellow with a hard look on his face, “This young gentleman, very sorry, my boss doesn’t often come to the store.”

Wei Ruo knew the reason for his expression of embarrassment and explained, “You inform your boss with your family, saying that it is the Taizhou Prefecture Wei Family’s eldest miss who asked me to come over to look for her.”

“You’re talking about the eldest lady of the Zhongyi Burial Mansion?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, I’ll go and inform!”

Upon hearing that it was Wei Ruo who let him come, the fellow’s attitude immediately changed.

Wei Ruo smiled, it looked like Ying Ying usually talked about herself to the people in the store.

It didn’t take long for the fellow to return, “This gentleman please follow me, my boss is not here today, but the boss’s brother just happened to come over, it’s just as well for you to speak with him about anything.”

“That’s also good.” Wei Ruo said.

The fellow led Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also went up to the second floor of the pharmacy, inside the first room on the left on the stairs, Xie Jue was sitting in front of the bookcase organizing the store’s account book, ready to take it back to Xie’s mansion in a while to give it to his sister, Xie Ying.

Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also entered together.

Wei Ruo smiled when she saw Jue Xie, “Good day, Mr. Xie.”

Jue Xie didn’t recognize Wei Ruo after his male disguise, and asked curiously, “I heard that Wei’s sister sent you here?”

“Yes.”

“I wonder what the gentleman’s name is?”

“My humble surname is Xu.” Wei Ruo replied.

“Good day, Mr. Xu, I wonder if the Wei family’s sister asked you to come over here to talk to us about something important?” Jue Xie inquired politely.
