Chapter 389 Empress Reward
Want to gain Wei Mingting's glory, but also feel that Wei Mingting can't support the Wei family and needs the help of their elder brothers. Isn't Wei Mingyong a little too funny?
Although he is such a person in the original book, Wei Ruo couldn't help but be speechless by his shamelessness when he actually met.
"My niece, what you said is a bit disregarding the overall situation? The second uncle has already analyzed it thoroughly for you. A single tree is hard to support. A chopstick is easy to break, but a pair of chopsticks is hard to break. Don't you understand such a simple truth? Your father and You both have some abilities, but relying on the two of you alone is far from enough!"
"That's really my niece. I'm dull, and I can't understand the meaning of the second uncle very well. Why don't the second uncle continue to talk about this matter with his father and elder brother? Too many ideas." Wei Ruo replied with a cold tone.
"What do you mean?" Wei Mingyong's face suddenly darkened.
"Is there something wrong with what I said? Second Uncle has something to discuss rationally with his father and elder brother, why should he ask me?" Wei Ruo asked back with a smile in his eyes.
"Wei Qingruo, I am your second uncle, your elder. I discussed this matter with you, a junior, because I gave you a little bit of face. You are so rude, how can you look like a lady in the uncle's house?"
"I don't need to worry about whether I look like a lady." Wei Ruo replied coldly.
"You... With your upbringing, it's no wonder the Xu family doesn't want you to divorce!" Wei Mingyong said angrily.
He came to Taizhou Mansion in the past few days and already inquired about everything that happened during the time that the Wei family was in Taizhou Mansion.
I don’t know where I heard that Wei Ruo almost got married to the Xu family, a well-known local family in Taizhou Prefecture, but it didn’t work out in the end.
"Second Uncle has to make it clear, I've never been engaged, how can I break off the engagement?" Wei Ruo said coldly.
"Heh, I heard that the eldest son of the Xu family was admitted to Jieyuan this time. It was a good opportunity before him to fly on a branch and become a phoenix. It's a pity that you didn't have this life."
"Flying on a branch and turning into a phoenix? Erbo means that the Wei family is a chicken coop? Then what is the second uncle in the Wei family?" Wei Ruo asked.
"You..." Wei Mingyong, who realized that he had been scolded, turned even more ugly, "Arbitrarily discussing the elders, without respect or superiority, I don't know what to say!"
He hit a wall with Wei Mingting and Wei Yichen, but they will at least give him the most basic face.
This eldest niece is fine, she just gave him a face!
Wei Ruo didn't want to talk to Wei Mingyong anymore: "I have something to do, I'm going back to the room first, Second Uncle, please do what you want."
After speaking, Wei Ruo strode away from Wei Mingyong and walked towards the backyard.
Wei Mingyong watched Wei Ruo walk away, and then angrily said: "It's unreasonable, you have no respect! No education! The third family really didn't raise a decent person!"

The time has entered late September, and the rice in Taizhou Prefecture has been harvested.
Those who listened to Wei Ruo's persuasion and obeyed the government's arrangement benefited a lot.
After the people’s harvest, the government government collected taxes and the granary was also full.
With a bumper rice harvest, the government government has more confidence in opening up wasteland.
At the same time, the planting of winter wheat in the wasteland is also proceeding smoothly, and the green wheat seedlings symbolize hope.
Thus, the disaster victims who participated in land reclamation became more motivated, and even the famous dignitaries of Taizhou Prefecture who participated in it were also enthusiastic, and many of them wanted to take the initiative to invest more.
The outstanding disaster relief achievements of Taizhou Prefecture naturally attracted the attention of the imperial court, especially after comparing the disaster relief achievements of the six princes.
For this reason, the imperial court specially sent envoys to Taizhou Mansion, and issued a decree to praise the people headed by Yuan Zhengqin, including Mrs. Yuan and Wei Ruo.
In addition, Chu Lan's biological mother, Concubine Hui, rewarded Wei Ruo with a lot of good things, and arrived at Taizhou at the same time as the envoys sent by the imperial court.
Madam Yuan immediately sent someone to the General's Mansion to invite Wei Ruo.
Knowing that it was the empress in the palace who gave Wei Ruo an extra reward, the Yun family paid special attention to it, and before Wei Ruo went out, he repeatedly told him: "You must thank the rewards well, and be cautious in your words and deeds when you see the palace people who come to give the rewards. Don't lose your etiquette, most of them are the celebrities around the empress."
"I know."
Wei Ruo was about to go out when Wei Mingyong rushed over.
Wei Mingyong frowned and said to Wei Ruo nervously: "Niece, you have to think carefully about the reward from Concubine Hui."
Concubine Hui is Chu Lan's biological mother, and what Wei Mingyong wants to marry is the sixth prince Chu Heng, so he doesn't want the members of the Wei family to get too involved with Chu Lan.
Yun's eyes froze, and then urged Wei Ruo to go out: "Ruoer, you go first, don't keep the people of Yuan Mansion waiting."
Wei Ruo nodded, then turned and left.
Before Wei Mingyong could say anything, Wei Ruo left, so he could only turn his head and say to Yun: "Third siblings, our family should not get too involved with the Seventh Prince."
Yun's complexion darkened: "Second brother is worrying too much, our family has not had too much contact with any prince, whether it is my husband's contact with the seventh prince in the barracks, or Ruo'er's disaster relief and cooperation. The intersection between the Seventh Princes is all due to the situation, please don't over-interpret it."
"This is not a question of whether I will over-interpret it, but a question of whether I will misunderstand it if I let others know." Wei Mingyong said anxiously.
"The body is not afraid of the slanting shadow, the second brother doesn't have to worry too much about these things. What's more, this is a gift from the empress, no matter what we do, we can't refuse this grace, right?" Yun replied.
"I'm not saying that Ruo'er won't accept the reward. It's a great joy for Ruo'er to be rewarded this time. As an uncle, I'm also happy for her. I just remind Ruo'er and the third younger siblings not to be confused by the reward from the imperial concubine or empress." own position."
"Second brother, don't worry, Ruo'er is a measured person, and she doesn't need to worry about this kind of thing."
Wei Ruo has many behaviors that the Yun family disagrees with, but the Yun family is very relieved of Wei Ruo in this matter related to the struggle between the Wei family and the court.
After Yun finished speaking, she asked Cuiping to support her and went back to Cangyun Garden.
Wei Mingyong gritted his teeth and muttered after Yun's walk away: "Woman is a family with long hair but short knowledge! Is there any comparison between the seventh prince and the sixth prince? The mother of the sixth prince is a noble concubine, his uncle is the chief assistant, and he has countless disciples. And The Seventh Prince's ancestral family has nothing! How can it be compared?"
"He also said that he didn't want to get involved in the disputes between the princes, but he was born to be confused with the seventh prince! Even a little brain knows which side is more promising!"
Wei Mingyong only dared to mutter such a few words when no one was around, and he didn't dare to say too much in front of Yun's face.
Really offended the person in the third room, he couldn't get anything good.
