Chapter 463: Chapter 463 Wasting Heavenly Resources_1

Wei Ruo’s gaze swept over everyone, absorbing their expressions, her face always adorned with a faint smile.

It was the old Madame Wei who reacted first, the first one to kneel down and pay respects to Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo was the queen now, even their elders had to kneel and pay respects to her.

Seeing this, the others also knelt down and performed the ritual of worship.

“Long live the queen.”

“You may all rise.” Wei Ruo didn’t make anyone suffer, and after all of them stood up, she entered the Loyal and Righteous Duke Residence surrounded by the crowd.

The men who were originally assigned to entertain King Rui had nothing to do at this moment, leaving only the women to accompany Wei Ruo to the Shou’an Hall.

Wei Ruo sat next to the old Madame Wei, next to whom on either side sat Mrs. Yun, Mrs. Mo, Bai family, and Wei Qingwan.

Old Madame Wei couldn’t resist holding Wei Ruo’s hand, and said in a doting manner, “Child, you have suffered a lot.”

King Rui not accompanying Wei Ruo on her return was seen as an extremely serious issue by old Madame Wei. It represented that Wei Ruo was not being taken seriously.

Wei Ruo calmly responded, “The prince is unwell. As his wife, I should be understanding.”

Mrs. Bai immediately laughed and said, “The queen is truly virtuous. With such consideration for the prince, he must be very fond of you.”

Mrs. Yun quickly commented, “It’s a known fact that the prince is unwell. At several grand ceremonies, the prince hasn’t been able to last till the end. It is quite normal that he couldn’t accompany the queen on her way back.”

Mrs. Bai laughed and said, “Third sister, there’s no need to emphasize that. I didn’t mention any problem with Prince Rui not accompanying the queen to return.”

Mrs. Yun was speechless.

Wei Ruo showed no signs of being affected, she smiled and said to old Madame Wei, “Grandmother, can you call brother Yilin for me? I have something to give him.”

“Sure, I’ll have him brought over.” Old Madame Wei agreed.

Soon, Wei Yilin was brought in. Walking in, he first paid his respects to old Madame Wei, then his gaze fell on Wei Ruo, his small eyes filled with worry.

Wei Ruo said, “A few days before my marriage, Yilin got injured while practicing and left a scar on his hand. I have some ointment here, just right for him.”

Then, Wei Ruo beckoned to Wei Yilin.

We Yilin came to Wei Ruo’s side.

Wei Yilin was only nine years old and didn’t need to worry too much about propriety.

In front of everyone, Wei Ruo took out a box of scar removal ointment.

The moment she saw the ointment, the ever-smiling Wei Qingwan’s face became stiff.

This was scar removal ointment sold in Tongde Hall, which she had bought at great expense and after a lot of effort!

The ointment she had worked so hard to get was now casually held in Wei Qingruo’s hand!

Mrs. Bai was also taken aback, Wei Qingwan had borrowed money from her to buy this ointment, so she naturally remembered it well.

Mrs. Yun frowned, too, feeling doubtful about how Ruoruo got this ointment. It was very expensive!

Mrs. Yun asked, “Ruoruo, could this ointment be from Tongde Hall?”

“Yes, it is from Tongde Hall. The prince said he was worried that I might get hurt, so he got me a few of these.” Wei Ruo answered.

A few? Did that mean there was more than one box?

From her words, it sounded like Prince Rui really loved her deeply.
