ei Yichen didnt notice these reactions, as he walked to Tingsong Garden with the item meant for Wei Ruo. He asked Xiumei about Wei Ruo, finding out she was not in Tingsong Garden; so he left the wooden box with Xiumei.

On his way back, he passed by Yizhu Park and happened to see Wei Ruo come out with a smile on her radiant face, while chatting with someone inside. Brother, see you tomorrow. Ill come and bring you something delicious again. The pumpkins m my garden are ripe. I will have Meimei make pumpkin pancakes for you, she said.

Wei Ruo turned her head and saw Wei Yichen, who was curiously watching her. Big brother, she said, her lively smile replaced by a more restrained expression.

Whats making you so happy? Wei Yichen asked curiously.

I just had a delicious meal with my brother, Wei Ruo replied.

I heard you promised to make pumpkin pancakes for Jinyi. Will I get some too? Wei Yichen asked.

Pumpkin pancakes are a kind of common food that country folk like. Im afraid it might not suit your taste, big brother. Gtt the ltest vls at .o/(v)/e/l/bi(.)co

I would like to try it.

Alright, the next time I make some, Ill bring some to you, Wei Ruo said.

Then Im looking forward to Ruos pumpkin pancakes, said Wei Yichen. Alright.

After chatting with Wei Yichen, Wei Ruo returned to Tingsong Garden and learned from Xiumei that Wei Yichen had come to give her a set of writing materials.

Wei Ruo sighed as she gazed at the writing materials in front of her.

Wei Yichen wasnt precisely bad to her, which was the attitude the original host ad held as well. Hence, she had poured much love and hope into her big brother.

However, whenever it came to choosing between the original host and Wei Qingwan, Wei Yichen always chose Wei Qingwans side, which cultivated the original hosts jealousy beyond control.

Wei Ruo had to admit she was also like that. Once she cared, it was hard for her to stay calm.

That was why this Wei Ruo did not want to get too involved with Wei Yichen. Abstaining from emotional attachment was the best way to protect herself.

Madam Yun was very concerned about the mystery boxes of Four Treasure House. She was closely monitoring the situation these days, frequently sending her maid Cuiping to gather information.

Just like Wei Yichen, she didnt particularly care about calligraphy work of the Tibetan layman offered as a mystery prize. No matter how precious, it was just a piece of calligraphy, and her eldest son had won one last time.

Madam Yun was more interested in whether Heyou, the young master, had a close bond with the Tibetan layman as claimed.

She needed to verify whether the claim by Four Treasure House was true. She wouldnt rule out that they could be exaggerating the truth to attract customers. So, she sent people to make inquiries repeatedly.

After much inquiry, she learned that both of the Tibetan laymans calligraphy pieces were authentic, and the layman didnt sell his works openly. Most of the people who got his calligraphy were his close friends.

It could be seen that Four Treasure House wasnt exaggerating-their owner, Heyou, was indeed a close friend of the Tibetan layman, and he could indeed write letters of recommendation.

Due to this, Madam Yun personally sent someone to Four Treasure House trying to communicate with the shopkeeper there, hoping that he could help with the introduction.

However, she was politely refused by the shopkeeper who said their boss did not meet anyone.

After being politely refused, Madam Yun was somewhat unwilling to give up and decided to pay a visit herself.

By now, all the mystery boxes in Four Treasure House had been sold out, and a notice had been posted at the entrance. The notice stated that Heyou would contact one registered person the following morning and hand over the letter of recommendation.

At this time, the number of customers in the store was not many. Occasionally some would come in and ask the shopkeeper about the mystery boxes, but they were all told that the mystery boxes were sold out, and the result would be announced soon.

Madam Yun, accompanied by her servants, entered the shop where the shopkeeper, named Jia, greeted them with a smile.

Anyone with a little insight would know that a woman accompanied by several servants was someone not to be trifled with.

Shopkeeper, I would like to meet your boss, Heyou, Madam Yun got straight to the point.

With an apologetic and familiar tone, shopkeeper Jia replied, Im sorry, madam. Heyou does not see visitors.

I am Wei from the Military Prefecture. I am here specifically to see Heyou,

Madam Yun revealed her identity.

In the not-so-large Xingshan County, the Military Prefecture was one of the best families.

Im very sorry, Madam Wei. Madam Qian also asked the same question a few days ago. But, our boss really does not meet guests, shopkeeper Jia insisted.

Even he, the shopkeeper, hadnt seen the boss, not even once. All information was passed through boss Xu.

Hearing that Madam Qian had also visited, Madam Yun realized that many people had the same idea as her.

Madam Yun frowned, thinking for a moment before she said, Shopkeeper Jia if Heyou could write an extra letter of recommendation for my son, I promise to reward your shop generously.

All business owners wanted profits, as long as the price was right, the other party should agree.

Shopkeeper Jia chuckled, Madam Wei, Im genuinely sorry. My boss has already instructed me that there will be only one letter of recommendation. If more are written, they would lose their value.

Shopkeeper Jia was smiling, but he thought to himself, it wasnt like a pumpkin leaf where another crop could be grown after one was picked.

A letter of recommendation would have to be recognized by the Tibetan layman.

No matter how close their friendship, sending over a bunch of letters of recommendation would, at the very least, annoy the Tibetan layman or even worse, they might end their relationship.

Shopkeeper Jia continued, Madam Wei, rest assured. There will be a result tomorrow. Once the result is out, our shop will send the letter to the house If you do not receive the letter, it means youre not destined for it.

Thank you for your trouble, Madam Yun, seeing the situation, had to give up.

The next morning, someone from Four Treasure House came to deliver a letter to the Military Prefecture.

When the guard heard that it was a letter from Four Treasure House, he hurriedly invited the messenger into the house.

However, Shopkeeper Jia politely declined, saying that he was only there to deliver the letter. He left the letter with the guard and was on his way.

The guard quickly brought the letter to the back courtyard and handed it to the head maid. Zhang, the head maid, presented the letter to Madam Yun in her Cangyun Garden.

Seeing the letter, Madam Yun was delighted and immediately called for Wei Yichen.

Yichen, come quickly and look. Four Treasure House sent a letter.

Really? Wei Yichen asked, his face lighting up with joy.

Stop guessing. Open it and see. This is good news. You should see it yourself, Madam Yun urged Wei Yichen to open the letter.

Alright. But as Wei Yichen opened the letter, the joy on his face gradually faded.

Whats wrong? Madam Yun was puzzled.. What was going on with her sons expression?
