I could call you annoying, but youre actually quite straightforward, always speaking your mind with me. I could also call you interesting, but what you say tends to be rather unreasonable, Wei Ruo remarked.

Where was I unreasonable? Wei Yilin disagreed.

Think about it yourself.

Wei Ruo genuinely no longer wanted to argue with Wei Yilin at this point, and turned to walk towards her room after finishing her sentence.

Wei Yilin rushed to block Wei Ruo, Explain what you meant!

Dont you dislike seeing me? But now, youre stopping me from leaving, could it be You actually like your sister quite a bit? You just wont admit it? Silly boy, your words do not match your actions! Wei Ruos eyes crinkled as she chuckled charmingly.

What are you saying! Dont make things up! Wei Yilin grew frantic.

What did she mean by silly boy? He felt goosebumps just hearing it!

No? Then why are you stopping me from leaving? Do you want to have a good chat and improve our relationship? Follow the latest novels n/velbin(.)com

No, no, no! Wei Yilin quickly shook his head to deny it.

If theres nothing, then obediently go find your beloved sister to play with. Otherwise, I might really think you are deliberately trying to act affectionate towards me!

Wei Yilin froze.

Wei Ruo cheerfully turned and entered her room, leaving Wei Yilin to fume over her retreating figure.

After quite a while, Wei Yilin ran to Wangmei Garden to complain about Wei Ruo to Wei Qingwan.

Sister, isnt Wei Ruo just like a country bumpkin? Which lady of a wealthy family would plant vegetables in their own yard, then climb up a ladder onto the wall?

Yilin, darling, she might be a bit lacking, but as family, we shouldnt speak ill of her, Wei Qingwan consoled.

But shes so irritating! Wei Yilin was reminded of Wei Ruos audacious claims that he liked her and wanted to improve their relationship those words that made his skin crawl. The more he thought about it, the angrier and more frustrated he became.

Yilin, dont be angry, you know her type of person, theres no need to get mad at her. If it makes you ill, your sister would be heartbroken.

Wei Qingwan gently stroked Wei Yilins head, her soft voice soothing his heart.

Wei Yilin instantly felt less angry: Sister, youre so kind! Born around the same time, yet the two of you are worlds apart, the difference is too great!

You! Wei Qingwan lightly tapped Wei Yilins forehead, From now on, dont be so rash and speak unsightly words. Your brother was right, such words cannot be said in front of outsiders. Once people hear, they will find fault with you. Your sister wouldnt want you to get punished for wrongdoing.

Understood, sister, Ill be more restrained next time.

Not just restrained, but dont go causing trouble for her either. Her wrongdoings will be corrected by our parents and older brother. Youre her brother, you shouldnt speak to her like that, understand? Wei Qingwan softly instructed.

Wasnt it brother who sent me to deliver the osmanthus cake to her. She didnt show any appreciation, so I couldnt help it! I swear when I went, I really intended to have a good chat with her!

Mmm, I know Yilin is a good boy.

Im so glad mom and dad didnt let her be our familys eldest daughter. Shes not nearly qualified enough to be our familys eldest daughter! Wei Yilin rejoiced secretly.

Actually, this position as eldest daughter should have been hers. The amount of love mom and dad gives us, I truly feel ashamed.

Not at all, I think mom and dads decision is the most clear, sister, you should be the eldest daughter! Our entire family acknowledges you!

Wei Qingwan stroked Wei Yilins head: Thank you, Yilin, for having such faith in me.

Of course, ever since I can remember, the person who has spent the most time with me, and taught me the most, is you, sister. If I dont trust you, who would I trust?

Not long after Wei Yilin was born, Wei Mingting was assigned to Xingshan County. With his public duties keeping him busy, and his wife also occupied with managing various household affairs, while Wei Yichen was busy with his studies, Wei Qingwan turned out to be the one who spent the most time with Wei Yilin, so their bond was the deepest.

Wei Ruos small courtyard renovation plan was going smoothly. Early this morning, she cut the sweet potato vine and planted it, along with the pumpkin, gourd, and loofah seedlings.

The sweet potato seeds came from her space. Planting them would earn her experience points. The pumpkin, gourd, and loofah were merely planted because it was their growing season and Wei Ruo liked the look of them growing all over the trellis with their fruits hanging down.

After a busy period, Wei Ruo had just sat down to have a sip of water.

Right at this moment, Cuiping, the maid of Weis mother, came over. She said that her mistress wished to speak with Wei Ruo about something in her room.

Observing Cuipings expression, Wei Ruo sensed that something was up.

Once she arrived in her mothers room, she saw that Wei Qingwan was already there.

Seeing her mothers grave expression, Wei Ruo was certain something had happened.

Upon Wei Ruos arrival, her mother gestured for her to come closer.

Wei Ruo approached, but still kept a slight distance.

Ruoruo, we received a letter from the capital. Your grandfather has added your name to the family lineage. From now on, your formal name is Wei Qingruo.

Her mothers furrowed brows and solemn expression suggested there was more than just this matter to discuss.

Mother, are you alright? Is there something bothering you? Wei Qingwan softly inquired.

Her mother glanced at Wei Ruo then at Wei Qingwan, before finally starting to speak after a long pause. Wanwan, theres another thing I need to tell you, please dont take it too hard.

Mother, you can tell me, Im okay.

Your grandfather wishes for Ruoruo to be the elder daughter, so your name will be written after hers.

Upon hearing this, Wei Ruo was a bit surprised. She thought her great-uncle might disagree with the arrangement, but did not expect him to make a decision so directly and without consulting her father and mother.

Wei Qingwan froze, her face visibly paled, and tears began to well up in her eyes.

Wanwan Seeing her daughter like this, her mothers mood grew even heavier.

Mother Wei Qingwan buried her face into her mothers embrace, tears rolling down her face like beads on a broken necklace.

Her mothers heart ached, she didnt know how to console her heartbroken daughter.

Wei Ruo took the initiative to speak up: Actually, theres not much difference between being the eldest or the second daughter. Mom and dad love us just the same.

Her mother was taken aback for a moment before realizing that these were her own words to Wei Ruo a few days prior.

Wei Ruo continued: Moreover, this is exactly what Qingwan herself asked for not too long ago. Now that it has come true, she should be happy.

These were Wei Qingwans own words.

Wei Qingwan lifted her head from her mothers embrace, staring at Wei Ruo like a hurt little bunny.

Is that not the case? Wei Ruo asked in return.
