Chapter 199 My young master's gift to the young lady
Wei Yichen reached out and touched Wei Yilin's head: "Don't think too much, the root of this matter is not on you."
Wei Yilin said thoughtfully: "Brother, I don't think what mother said is wrong. She did not conform to the lady's style. Not only will she have a bad reputation, but she will also implicate the second sister. But what the elder sister said, I It feels like nothing is wrong…”
He was shocked by what Wei Qingruo said just now.
Wei Yichen said: "Your eldest sister has not lived with us for the past thirteen years. She has her difficulties. We should be more considerate and tolerant of her. Her past behavior is indeed inappropriate now, but we cannot suddenly Asking her to change too much needs to be done slowly. So maybe everyone is right, but the wrong thing is that thirteen years is too long."
Wei Yilin nodded his head half-understood.
Wei Qingwan, who was behind the two of them, could not help lowering her head while listening to their conversation.
If it wasn’t for the eldest brother, Wei Qingruo and his mother would have a dispute tonight, and this time, mother might not let Wei Qingruo off so easily...

When Wei Ruo left the dining room, it was already covered with snow outside.
The snow started to fall when Wei Ruogang arrived home, but within an hour (two hours), the road, tree branches, and roofs were all covered with thick snow.
After returning to Tingsong Garden, Wei Ruo and Xiumei set up tables and chairs in the yard, and took out the prepared wine and dishes.
Such heavy snow is common in the north, but it is rare in Taizhou.
The two generations of Wei Ruo were both southerners, and they had never seen heavy snow, so they moved things to the courtyard to enjoy the snow.
Because of the cold weather, a stove was built next to it, which can be used for heating and warming wine.
The light from the stove, the light from the lanterns hanging on the tree, and the moonlight reflected by the white snow make the courtyard very bright.
After the master and servant moved all the things, the snow began to lighten.
"That's great, it's best to stop at this time." Wei Ruo said.
"I think it can still fall for a while, the snow will be thicker and more beautiful." Xiumei said.
Xiumei has never seen heavy snow, so she doesn't know what harm it will be if it snows too much.
"Only when the snow is wet can it usher in a good year. At this time, the thickness of the snow is just right, and if it falls any further, it will cause a snow disaster." Wei Ruo explained to Xiumei.
"Why is this? Isn't it so cold if it doesn't snow? And what harm can the light snow do?" Xiumei didn't quite understand.
"It looks light, but if it accumulates thickly, the weight will collapse houses and trees. Since heavy snow is rare in Taizhou Prefecture, the construction of houses here has not taken this into consideration. Once the snow accumulates too much thick, the houses will not be able to bear it, especially those whose families are not rich and whose houses have been in disrepair for a long time."
"I see, so let's stop like this, it's already pretty good." Xiumei said.
"Well, come on, drink, I wish this is an auspicious snow." Wei Ruo said.
Although Wei Ruo knows that according to the direction in the original book, the next few years will not be smooth and the people's life will still be difficult, but he still hopes that the snow will not be a catastrophe at least.
The reason why Wei Ruo didn't know what would happen to the snow was because the Wei family and the original owner were facing even greater difficulties at this time in the original book.
Wei Mingting passed away, and Yun took several people to **** Wei Mingting's coffin back to the capital. They spent this year in the capital, but it was very miserable.
It didn’t snow in Taizhou that year, the original owner didn’t know, and neither did Wei Ruo.
"Miss, although this warm rice wine can keep the cold away, you don't want to drink too much!" Xiumei told Wei Ruo.
"My dear Meimei, this year's new year, can't you let me drink it?" Wei Ruo begged for mercy.
"No. This year, Mother Xu is not here, so I have to watch over you!" Xiumei's attitude was firm.
"Then I am not the nanny now. Besides, miss, you will say that drinking for pleasure and getting drunk will hurt your body." Xiumei looked serious.
"Okay, okay, I obey, I will just drink this small pot and not drink too much." Wei Ruo reluctantly compromised.
Wei Ruo and Xiumei clinked glasses, and after drinking half of the glass, they felt a little lonely.
In previous years, there were Nanny, Uncle Xu and Brother Xiaoyong, but this year there are only the two of them.
Wei Ruo looked at the snow scene in the courtyard, the snow scene was beautiful, but it was a bit deserted.
At this moment, something fell from a height and landed on the untrodden snow in front of Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo looked over, but it was an exquisite brocade box.
Xiumei went forward to pick up the brocade box, and saw that the brocade box was brand new, and it didn't belong to Wei Ruo.
"That's weird, I've heard of pies falling from the sky, but how come there are boxes of brocades falling from the sky?"
Xiumei looked suspiciously at the brocade box.
Wei Ruo was also puzzled, and looked up.
At this time, a head stuck out from the wall, looking at Wei Ruo and Xiumei with a smile.
"Xiaobei?" Xiumei walked towards Xiaobei with her hands on her hips.
Xiao Beihan smiled and said: "Miss Xiumei, the brocade box was lost by my young master and brought back as a gift for the eldest lady. Since the doors between the east and west courtyards have been closed, the young master can only throw the gift over."
Wei Jin has always been very polite, and he never set foot in Wei Ruo's Tingsong Garden when he was in Xingshan County.
Xiumei asked: "The second young master is here?"
Xiao Bei nodded: "Yes, yes."
Wei Ruo asked: "When did you come back?"
Xiaobei replied: "I just came back, just arrived in the yard, and the heater in the room didn't turn on, so I came here to deliver things to the eldest lady."
Wei Ruo asked: "What about your young master?"
Xiaobei said: "The young master has gone back to his yard."
Wei Ruo said: "Tell your young master, I will let him come over."
Now that Wei Ruo can't get through, we can only let Wei Jin also come over.
In the past, Wei Ruo and Wei Jinyi’s yards were only separated by a wall. Now, in addition to the walls of their respective yards, there is also a high wall separating the east and west backyards. Only one door in the wall can pass through this wall, and it is guarded.
At night, the door is closed, and Wei Ruo wants to go to the Yingzhu Garden, but he can't get through.
"Okay." Xiaobei responded and disappeared from the wall.
After a while, Xiaobei came back: "Miss, my young master said that it was too late, and it was not good for people to see him in Missy's yard."
Wei Ruo said: "Go back and tell him, if he doesn't come, I'll use a ladder to climb the wall and go to his yard."
Xiao Bei was stunned for a moment, "Okay, I'll go and send a message to the young master right now."
After speaking, he disappeared.
After a while, Wei Jin, dressed in white, also jumped over the wall and landed briskly in Wei Ruo's courtyard.
