Wei Ruo spoke in a calm tone: “I did what was within my abilities. Ultimately, the wheat had to be grown by them. Their diligence paid off.”
Wei Mingting looked at Wei Ruo, and an overwhelming sense of pride arose in his heart.
“These days are the time for the winter wheat to ripen. If you’re busy during this period, you don’t have to come see me. I no longer have any major problems,” Wei Mingting added.
Even though Wei Ruo was no longer in charge of the southern wastelands of Xingshan County, Wei Mingting speculated that her recent hustle and bustle was likely related to work in the fields, even though he was not aware of what specifically Wei Ruo was doing these days.
Wei Ruo looked at Wei Mingting and thought for a while before replying, “It won’t hinder.”
While Wei Ruo and Wei Mingting were chatting, Doctor Cheng arrived.
In recent days, Doctor Cheng had been visiting the Wei Residence every day to check on Wei Mingting’s health.
Today, when he arrived and saw Wei Ruo, Doctor Cheng couldn’t help but exclaim with a smile, “Master Wei is indeed lucky to have a daughter like Miss. During your critical condition, it was thanks to her calm and composed demeanor that we managed the crisis. She not only did so but also helped this old man a lot.”
Hearing Doctor Cheng’s praise of Wei Ruo, Wei Mingting was somewhat surprised. While he was aware that his eldest daughter had been taking care of him attentively during his unconsciousness, he was not aware of the other details.
“Oh? What else has my child done?” Wei Mingting asked Doctor Cheng.
“At that time, the Madam and the second young mistress were thrown into disarray and terribly flustered. In the absence of the young masters, it was the eldest Miss who properly arranged everything at home and calmed everyone. Later when I couldn’t find the necessary medicinal materials for your treatment within the city, it was Miss who came up with a solution to source them,” Doctor Cheng answered.
Doctor Cheng further added, “Not just that, when I had to perform a surgical procedure on you, Miss assisted me throughout. Her calm and meticulous thoughtfulness greatly contributed to your recovery.”
Although Doctor Cheng wasn’t able to directly mention how Wei Ruo had performed the surgery, he still attempted to highlight her contribution from other perspectives.
Upon hearing this, Wei Mingting turned to look at Wei Ruo, “How come you didn’t mention any of this to me?”
“It was my duty, so there was no need to mention it,” Wei Ruo replied.
Wei Mingting was both delighted and moved. His daughter was not only capable but also calm, truly a bearer of great responsibility.
After examining Wei Mingting, Doctor Cheng said, “Master Wei’s recovery is going well. However, you still need to avoid overworking or exertion in the next few days. Rest is critical, continue taking the prescribed medicine on time.”
“Thank you for your efforts, Doctor Cheng,” Wei Mingting said.
“I will take my leave now, Master Wei. Please take good care,”
Doctor Cheng gave a few more words of advice before excusing himself.
Not long after Doctor Cheng’s departure, Wei Yichen arrived.
“Father,” Wei Yichen greeted Wei Mingting, then turned his gaze to Wei Ruo.
He had attempted to have a private conversation with Wei Ruo a few times in the past two days but had been meticulously avoided by her each time.
Wei Ruo ignored Wei Yichen’s gaze, feigning ignorance of his yearning to speak with her.
Wei Yichen had no choice but to return his attention to Wei Mingting, expressing concern for his father’s health, “How are you feeling today, Father? Are there any discomforts?”
“There’s no problem. I’m feeling better each passing day; you don’t need to worry,” Wei Mingting replied.
Wei Mingting then shared what Doctor Cheng had told him with Wei Yichen, “Doctor Cheng came earlier and told me that in the days when I was unwell, it was Ruoruo who held the fort at home and ensured everything ran smoothly. She even assisted Doctor Cheng in my medical treatment and managed to find the missing medicinal ingredients.”
Wei Yichen was slightly surprised and turned to Wei Ruo, saying, “You’ve been working hard, Ruoruo.”
