Chapter 71: She really cares about him

“Did you also hear about the blind box, Second Brother?” Wei Ruo asked.

“Slightly heard about it.” Wei Jin also said.

Xiao Bei on the side added, “Eldest Miss, madam has bought seven or eight boxes for the eldest young master, we have heard the news even if the news is closed on our side.”

“So it is.” Wei Ruo wasn’t surprised at all, she had heard the content of Yun’s and Wei Yi Chen’s conversation that day, and naturally knew that they would definitely be interested in the matter of the Hidden Forest Dweller.

“Does Ruo’er also want to draw the ink treasure of the Hidden Forest Dweller?” Wei Jin also asked.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s the ink treasure of the Hidden Forest Jushi, the letter of recommendation is more important, after getting the letter of recommendation, Second Brother will be able to worship the Hidden Forest Jushi as his teacher.” Wei Ruo replied.

“You wish me to worship the Hidden Forest Dweller?” Wei Jin also asked.

“Didn’t second brother recently change his mind about planning to take the imperial examinations? Then worshipping a master can help second brother even if he doesn’t really learn anything.” Wei Ruo said.

“Uh-huh.”

“Doesn’t second brother like to worship?” Wei Ruo asked.

Wei Jin also looked at Wei Ruo and saw her joyful and soulful expression, as well as the anticipation in her eyes.

“If there is a suitable, you can worship the teacher, but it is not forced, Ruo’er does not need to be too attached to avoid disappointment.” Wei Jin also replied.

“Then open it up, Ergo, I’m curious to see how my hand is doing!”

Wei Ruo wondered, she really didn’t know what was inside the blind box she had randomly selected.

After those boxes were assembled, there was no special sign to identify them, so even Wei Ruo, who was the planner, didn’t know which box was the one that contained the ink treasure of the Hidden Forest Dweller.

Under the gaze of Wei Ruo’s curious eyes, Wei Jin also opened the box, which contained the Four Treasures of the Four Treasures, all four of them.

Wei Ruo looked at it, “Can ah, I have a really good hand, there is paper is not a loss, there is also this inkstone is also the one with a higher price, not a loss, not a loss.”

Xiao Bei couldn’t help but say, “Missy, you’re happy just having paper, how happy would you have to be if this really lets you get the one box with the Hidden Forest Dweller in it!”

“Being a man should be contented, this kind of thing that relies entirely on luck, can’t ask for too much, luck is used up elsewhere all at once, we’d better save a little bit of good!” Wei Ruo said.

“You have a point.” Wei Jin also smiled lightly, “These things are also quite good.”

“Anyway, I’ve registered your name as Second Brother, so I might be looked at later.” Wei Ruo said with a smile.

“There is no need to be too concerned, even if you get that letter, you may not always be able to succeed in worshipping the master, perhaps it is the exaggerated words of that store.”

Wei Jin also didn’t want Wei Ruo to put too much expectation on this matter, so as not to be disappointed later when her hopes were dashed.

“Second brother don’t worry about it, I have inquired, that store is still quite reliable, the hidden forest priest rarely sells his works to the outside world, can get his ink treasure is mostly his close friends and relatives, so that the possibility of the letter of recommendation to work is very high.”

“Since Ruo’er thinks there’s no problem, I’ll look forward to it.” Wei Jin also changed his words.

“Uh-huh, that’s right, look forward to it, Second Brother.” Wei Ruo said with a smile.

“Uh-huh.” A light smile appeared on Wei Jin Yi’s face as his gaze watched Wei Ruo.

She always seemed to be very considerate of him, thinking of him first in everything, worrying for him and rejoicing for him, shining a light into this dim and dull life of his.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the lieutenant’s house, the same people were worried about the boxes.

In the southwesternmost corner of the school captain’s residence, inside Ao Ju Yuan, Wei Yi Chen was organizing the literary treasures inside the seven boxes in front of him.

Sibaozhai sold this blind box he bought a total of seven, of course, not all in his own name to buy, his own name only bought two, the back of the mother and Wan Wan and bought two, the last one is a friend of his classmates gifted to him.

Now that all seven of these blind boxes have been opened, there is no hidden forest dweller’s ink treasure, but nothing inside is bad.

There were values of more than five taels and less than five taels, and on the whole there was no great loss.

Although I was a little disappointed that I didn’t get to open the ink treasure of Zanglin Jushi, I wasn’t too upset.

What he wanted now was that letter of recommendation from Duke Woori.

It’s just a shame that no matter how many boxes you buy, you can only keep one name, the same as any other purchaser.

Wei Qingwan brought her maid, Cui He, to Ao Ju Yuan to visit Wei Yi Chen, and when she saw the box, she inquired, “How’s big brother doing, have you opened the ink treasure of the Hidden Forest Dweller?”

Wei Yi Chen shook his head, “No.”

Wei Qingwan was busy comforting, “Big brother don’t be discouraged, the calligraphy, painting and ink treasures of the Hidden Forest Dweller may be a gimmick used by that store to attract sellers, it may not really be put in, and it may be that in the end, everyone will not be able to open it.”

Wei Yichen thought differently, “I think the owner of that store has an idea, last time they also took the real masterpiece of Hidden Forest Jushi out, this time there is no reason to get a fake one.”

Wei Qingwan changed her tone and said, “Then I don’t know who will be so lucky to get this piece of artwork.”

Wei Yi-chen said, “Compared to the ink treasures, I want to directly worship in the Zanglin Jushi, earlier I have this idea, just suffering from the lack of avenues, and now there is a letter of recommendation, I am going to fight for some.”

“Big brother is so outstanding, if that Hidden Forest Jushi sees you, big brother, he will definitely like you, appreciate you, and be willing to accept you as his closed disciple.” Wei Qingwan said.

Wei Yi Chen let out a bitter smile, “This may not be the case, the so-called sky is beyond the sky and there are people beyond the sky, I now reside in a corner of Taizhou Prefecture, and what I have seen and heard is very limited, and I have no way of knowing what kind of level I’m really at.”

“In my mind, big brother will always be the most powerful, and I also read books, although there are no others to make comparisons, there are also books to make comparisons. I believe that even if I go out of the Taizhou Prefecture, big brother may not fall much behind others.” Wei Qingwan said.

Wei Yi Chen smiled and no longer refute. In the heart of the family is powerful these words he listen to it, can not be taken as true.

“By the way, is Ruo’er back yet?” Wei Yi Chen asked.

“It should be back, I just saw my sister’s maid when I passed by Listening Pine Court.” Wei Qingwan replied, and immediately afterward inquired in a low voice, “Big brother asked if sister was up to something?”

“There’s nothing else, just that this one-time purchase of seven boxes, ink, paper and inkstones are a bit much, I’ll take some of them to Ruo’er, she’s been using them for reading lately.”

Wei Yi Chen said, and then organized the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone that he had divided into two identical copies, and packed them in the vacated wooden box.

“This one is for you, and this one I’ll take to Ruo’er.” Wei Yichen said to Wei Qingwan.

“Thank …… you big brother.” Wei Qingwan thanked him while her gaze was fixed on the other copy in Wei Yi Chen’s hand, and there was always some indescribable discomfort in her heart.
