Soon after, Wei Yichen took out the letter written by Xiu Fengyuanfrom his bosom: “It is inappropriate for a lady to correspond with another man through letters. Today, this letter is from Xiu asking why you are resisting the marriage between our families. After reading it, you don’t need to reply directly. If you have any thoughts, just tell your elder brother and I will pass along your message to Xiu.”
Wei Ruo looked at Wei Yichen’s serious and solemn expression and asked, “Will you really help me deliver my message, brother? Even if I want to break off this engagement?”
“As long as it’s not too outrageous, I will deliver it for you and will never go against your wishes.” Wei Yichen promised.
Wei Ruo didn’t respond, but just stared at Wei Yichen.
Wei Yichen felt Wei Ruo’s distrust towards him. He was somewhat disappointed and felt helpless, so he added: “The reputation of the Wei Family should be upheld by the men in the family. We should never rely on the marriage of a woman to consolidate it.”
In this aspect, Wei Yichen was deeply influenced by his father, Wei Mingting. He believed that his sisters should grow up adored and lead a comfortable life.
Wei Ruo said, “Then, I will have to trouble you, elder brother.”
Then she took the letter from Wei Yichen’s hand and opened it in front of him.
The content was quite simple, without any inappropriate expressions. The whole letter was expressing: politely asking Wei Ruo if she was dissatisfied with him or the Xiu Family, or if there were any misunderstandings; he hoped they could communicate in a timely manner to avoid further misunderstanding.
To avoid unnecessary trouble if the letter fell into the wrong hands, the letter did not have a signature or a salutation.
After finishing reading, Wei Ruo gave the letter back to Wei Yichen and said, “Please tell Young Master Xiu that I don’t have any dissatisfaction with him or the Xiu Family. I just know myself. I am not suitable to become the main wife of the family. Furthermore, Young Master Xiu is going to have a government official career in the future, and I, who has always done what she pleases in the countryside since childhood, am not suited to be a virtuous helper. Nor can I withstand the constraints of such a life.”
“Alright, I understand. I will deliver your message to Young Master Xiu.”
Wei Yichen nodded and then stopped hindering Wei Ruo, watching her walk towards Tingsong Garden.
Not until Wei Ruo disappeared did Wei Yichen withdraw his gaze.
Today, Wei Yichen felt much more relaxed as he had taken care of two things that weighed on his mind.
On his way back, Wei Yichen ran into Wei Yilin, who was standing at the corner, watching Wei Yichen with his small eyes.
“Were you watching me and your elder sister all this time?” Wei Yichen asked.
“Yes.” Wei Yilin nodded, “I wouldn’t want to see you two fighting again.”
“That won’t happen. I lost control last time because our father was critically ill. I was impetuous and accidentally hurt your elder sister. Such incidents should be avoided in the future, and should not be repeated.”
Wei Yilin nodded heavily: “That’s good.”
