The remaining twenty percent of the fields in Younan Farmstead have been planted with taro produced from Wei Ruo’s space.

As the people in the farmstead are not very familiar with the cultivation of water taro, Wei Ruo often has to go to the fields to inspect, to ensure the conditions of these taro, and to prevent the occurrence of pests and other unexpected problems.

Therefore, early this morning, Wei Ruo went out early and went to Younan Farmstead first. After all the work was done, she returned to the city.

By the time Wei Ruo and Xiumei returned to Tianqin Garden, it was almost

noon.

The three Yuan sisters were having a meal, and Mr. Wang Caiwei was still

sitting in the study.

Seeing Wei Ruo, Wang Caiwei waved to her, motioning her to come over.

Wei Ruo came to Wang Caiwei and bowed to apologize, “I’m sorry, Mr. Wang,

I’ve delayed half a day’s lesson again.”

“You don’t need to apologize every time. I’ve said it before, what you do is more profound than what you learn from books. I support you in this.” Wang Caiwei

said.

“Thank you, sir.” Wei Ruo was grateful for Mr. Wang’s understanding.

Wang Caiwei then said to Wei Ruo, “Your elder brother replied to my letter. He asked you to wait, he will be back in a few days. The problem you mentioned, he will solve it for you when he comes back. You should not do anything foolish.”

“My second brother might not be able to help me with this.”

Wei Ruo believes that while her second brother might be able to prevent Yuns and Xu families from forming this marriage alliance this time, he might not be able to prevent it next time.

In the world she is in, women have to marry when they reach a certain age, especially women from prominent families. They don’t have a say in whom

they marry.

Even if she decided to become a nun, she would not be allowed to stay

unmarried.

Therefore, her second brother can’t solve her fundamental problem. In the end, she still has to find a suitable person to marry.

Wang Caiwei, who didn’t understand Wei Ruo’s thoughts on this matter, could only convey Wei Jinyi’s intention saying, “You can trust your second brother. If he says so, he will definitely do so. You don’t have to worry too much.”

“I understand.”

Wei Ruo did not continue to argue. Finding a suitable candidate is no longer the most urgent issue because the Xu family has made a statement and Yun’s family has also softened.

So, the immediate task is to find a way to sabotage this marriage, not to find a more suitable marriage partner in her opinion.

The three Yuan sisters returned after lunch and saw that Wei Ruo had already returned. The three sisters crowded around her.

“Ruoruo, I heard that the Xu family seems to be looking for a matchmaker to propose marriage to your family. Is it true or not?” Yuan Jiuniang asked.

“I have heard about it as well.” Wei Ruo replied.

Indeed, she too had heard about it, as Yun’s mother had not formally discussed the matter with her yet.

Perhaps Yun’s mother knew what her reaction to the talk would be, so she simply didn’t talk to her about it. She intended to proceed directly, so even if Wei Ruo wanted to refuse, she couldn’t.

After all, marriage is traditionally decided by parental orders and matchmaker’s words, and it’s not her place to express an opinion.

“Ah? Ruoruo, how did you hear about it?” Yuan Shiniang was quite puzzled.

“Perhaps because it’s not up to me to decide on such a big event as marriage.

Wei Ruo said.

Upon hearing this, the three Yuan sisters exchanged a glance. They felt some sympathy for Wei Ruo, but they also knew that they would not be in a much better position than Wei Ruo.

When it’s their turn, it will probably be the same situation.

Yuan Qiniang comforted Wei Ruo saying, “Ruoruo, don’t be sad. The eldest son of the Xu family is one of the most distinguished young men in Taizhou prefecture. He is both talented and handsome, and it’s hard to find another person like him in the whole city.”

Yuan Jiuniang immediately added, “Yes, you saw him last time at the Yusheng Tea House, Ruoruo. His bearing and looks are unmatched by anyone else except your eldest brother. His performances in the dragon boat race and the Potters games that day were extremely excellent, which proved that those rumors are true.”

Yuan Shiniang nodded, “Yes, yes, yes, I heard. There are many families in the city who want to marry the Xu family. This time, I don’t know how many people will be envious of you, Ruoruo!”

Anyway, if you have to marry, wouldn’t it be better to marry a remarkable person rather than an ordinary one? The three Yuan sisters thought so, and therefore they comforted Wei Ruo in this way.

?’Thank you for comforting me, don’t worry, I will handle it well.” Wei Ruo smiled at the three Yuan sisters. At this moment, she already had a solution in mind and wouldn’t succumb to negativity.

The news that the Xu family was going to send a matchmaker to propose marriage spread. The young ladies who attended school in Tongzhi Prefecture were all very curious about it.

So, when Miss Xu Yaojun of the Xu family arrived, they asked her about the truth of the matter.

“It’S true.” Xu Yaojun gave a definite answer, her tone and color were not very good.

She didn’t have any opinion about this matter before, but after the conflict with Wei Qjngruo last time, she developed an opinion towards the Wei sisters.

She didn’t like Wei Qjngruo marrying into their family, but her opinion was of no use. Her grandparents liked Wei Qjngruo, her mother also approved, her opinion was ignored.

Xu Yaojun’s gaze fell on Wei Qingwan, who was silent in the corner.

She walked over, sat in the seat opposite Wei Qingwan’s desk, folded her hands on the desk, and provocatively said, “You seem to be still not as capable as your sister, she was able to climb up the high branch of our family with her real skills.”

Wei Qingwan didn’t want to deal with her, she turned her head to the side. “Don’t pretend, don’t you Wei sisters put on a lofty and arrogant act every day in order to climb up high branches? Who are you pretending for?” Xu Yaojun mocked.

“Miss Xu, what you’re talking about is my sister’s business, it has nothing to do with me.” Wei Qingwan clarified.

“How does it have nothing to do with it? Aren’t you and your sister the same kind of people? I thought she could be a little better than you, but it seems that she has more sophisticated tactics than you now.” Xu Yaojun said disdainfully.

Then she looked at Wei Qingwan with disgust, “Look at you, with excellent appearance and figure, and even more capable of acting than your sister, how come she has already climbed up a high branch, and you haven’t moved at all? Don’t let it be that when she marries someone prestigious, you can only find a

poor scholar.”

Wei Qingwan replied coldly, “Miss Xu, show some respect. My family holds the title of earl, and in terms of status and identity, we are in no way inferior to your Xu family.”

“Apart from showing off your identity as an earl’s daughter, don’t you have any other new ideas? Don’t think I don’t know that your family is so poor that they can’t even afford to eat. Your mother is selling off your family’s land and reducing your family’s expenses. Despite this, you’re still putting on an act of being a rich earl’s daughter here?” Xu Yaojun mocked with a laugh.

Wei Qingwan, who had her sore spot hit, bit her lower lip, “Miss Xu, since you know that my sister is more powerful than me, why don’t you go to my sister, why bother me? The person who is going to be engaged to your brother is not

me..”
