Chapter 556: Don’t believe in numerology
"Peaceful coexistence is mutual. How can we ask only you? How can she blame you for being fifteen when she is in the first year of junior high school? As a father, I definitely hope that this family will be harmonious, but if the bones are already riddled with wounds, There is no point in trying to maintain superficial harmony."
Then Wei Mingting said to Wei Ruo with sincerity: "You are my daughter. As a father, I should protect you from wind and rain, but obviously I am an unqualified father and failed to do this. Now someone wants to hurt you. You protect yourself, should I blame you for not doing so? Is there such a thing in the world?"
Wei Ruo’s heart was hit hard.
Then she turned her head away, not daring to look Wei Mingting in the eyes.
After pausing for a while, Wei Qingruo handed a letter to Wei Mingting: "Father, you can take this letter to the address written above. There are things there that father may need."
Wei Mingting looked at the envelope in front of him and said, "Ruoer is worried about being a father again."
"It's not for my father, it's for the people, it's for myself. Only when the country is safe and the people are safe can I do business and make money. If the country is not safe and the people are in trouble, and the war is in chaos, how can I live a good life of my own." Wei Ruo explained.
“Okay, for the common people, for the country, and for the family.” Wei Mingting laughed heartily.
“Then my daughter will leave first.” Wei Ruodao.
Wei Ruo originally wanted to ask Wei Mingting some military matters, but now he wanted to leave quickly.
Wei Ruo wanted to leave, but Wei Mingting stopped her: "It's rare for you and me to get together, so why not sit down and drink with my father and talk."
Wei Ruo paused. After hesitating for a while, he nodded and agreed.
Then Wei Mingting called his servants to warm a pot of wine and asked the kitchen to prepare some side dishes. The father and daughter drank and talked freely in the study.
Wei Mingting took the initiative to talk to Wei Ruo about matters in the army, starting with their recent victories, the newly built warships, and the food and grass support provided by the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces in their fight against the Japanese army.
Wei Mingting was not a talkative person. In Wei Ruo's impression, he had never said so many words to his wife Yunshi or his eldest son Wei Yichen.
But I don’t know why I talked to her so much today.
Wei Ruo listened with great interest, especially when he talked about the defeat of the Japanese pirates by the anti-Japanese army. Wei Ruo was fully focused and his emotions were aroused.
The father and daughter chatted until dinner time before Wei Ruo left.
Should have taken dinner before going back, but considering everything that happened today, Wei Ruo thought it would be better not to stay and take advantage of the dinner.
When Wei Ruo came out of Wei Mingting's study, Chu Heng had already left with Wei Qingwan.
Chu Heng didn't look any different before leaving. It seemed that what happened today did not have much impact on him.
After leaving Uncle Zhongyi’s Mansion, Wei Ruo got on the carriage back to Prince Rui’s Mansion.
In the car, Xiumei asked Wei Ruo: "Miss, do you think the second lady is really destined to lose her parents? Does Prince Yu's current behavior have anything to do with her?"
"No. Her fortune is not that bad. There was something fishy about the He family telling me my fortune." Wei Ruodao.
Wei Qingwan is the heroine of the original work, so she is naturally destined to be a noble girl. How could it be possible that her parents are overpowered by fate?
In fact, the so-called theory of restraining relatives that was calculated by the He family was a catastrophe set for the heroine Wei Qingwan in the original work.
It was a plot that happened later in Chu Lan’s backyard. His concubine Zuo Lingyue specially sent people to investigate and used it to attack Wei Qingwan.
Later, Chu Lan verified that there was another hidden secret. The birth date used by the He family for fortune-telling was not related to a relative. Instead, it was the destined phoenix girl. It was deliberately tampered with by someone who did not want the He family to prosper.
It's a pity that in this life, both Wei Qingwan and the Wei family mistakenly thought that there was something wrong with her real birth date, so she asked Qi Zhen to find a way to fake her birth date.
"Ah? Didn't the second lady make a mistake?" Xiumei asked. "Indeed, I don't know if her current husband is willing to check carefully for her." Wei Ruodao.
"I think King Yu looks pretty good today. He doesn't seem to be angry about this matter." Xiumei said.
"That man is a deep-minded person, and he is not happy. You can't tell from his face. Even if he is unhappy, he will not show it directly in the loyal uncle's house."
This is how Chu Heng is described in the original work.
After a pause, Wei Ruo added: "Actually, my destiny is not that good, it is just an ordinary destiny. But I don't believe in numerology. I think man can conquer nature."
“Well, Miss is right, no matter what your destiny is, you have to work hard the day after tomorrow.” Xiumei agreed.
###
On the way back to Prince Yu's Mansion, Wei Qingwan was very cautious in the carriage and did not dare to let out any anger.
Chu Heng's face has long lost the smile he had when he was in the Wei family, and his face is as cold as frost.
It was the first time Wei Qingwan saw Chu Heng like this, and she was so nervous that her body was shaking uncontrollably.
Wei Qingwan has been arriving at Prince Yu's Mansion with this kind of uneasiness.
After arriving, Chu Heng got out of the car and left, leaving Wei Qingwan with a confused look.
Cuihe helped Wei Qingwan into Cuitingxuan.
When no one else was around, Wei Qingwan cried.
While Grandma Li and Cui He were persuading, Qi Shijing arrived.
“The princess has arrived.”
Hearing the sound, Wei Qingwan was nervous and forgot to cry for a moment.
After calming down, Wei Qingwan came to the door to respond with the support of Cui He and Grandma Li.
"Sister..." Wei Qingwan called out cautiously.
"Farewell, Concubine Wei is very proud of herself now. Soon, my position as the princess will be replaced by yours. I hope Concubine Wei can leave a way for me to survive by then." Qi Shijing said.
“Sister is joking, I am scared.” Wei Qingwan said hurriedly.
“I heard that you are pregnant?” Qi Shijing asked.
“It’s not confirmed yet, it’s all rumored from outside.” Wei Qingwan said nervously.
“It’s best not to misinformation.” Qi Shijing said.
"Sister..." Wei Qingwan looked at Qi Shijing at a loss.
But Qi Shijing smiled and said: "Sister, don't be nervous. What's in your belly is the prince's child. Could I hurt him? I don't have such courage. I still hope that you will give birth to this child well." Come on, this child is not only the prince’s first child, but also the emperor’s first grandson, and he is very valuable.”
King Yu has fallen out of favor now. If he wants King Yu to regain his favor, giving birth to the emperor's eldest grandson may be a good way.
Wei Qingwan looked at Qi Shijing blankly, and Qi Shijing said with a smile: "Nurture the baby well. Whether you have a chance to win such wealth depends on your belly."
