But deep down, there was still a void in her heart. Once touched, all those emotions would come rushing out.
“Madam, please stop asking about this.” Wei Mingting couldn’t give his wife a satisfactory answer, so he abruptly ended the conversation.
Upon seeing Wei Mingting head towards the study, Madam Yun slumped down into her chair, heartbroken.
Madam Yun didn’t understand why she had reopened those old wounds today, wounds which she had buried deep in her heart for many years.
Perhaps it was because Jinyi had become more active lately, and his presence constantly reminded her of her husband’s sweet past with another woman.

This time, Wei Jinyi stayed at home for half a month. After accompanying Wei Ruo to finish the disaster relief work, it was time for him to leave again.
Wei RUO went to bid him goodbye, and brought him a carriage full of things. Upon seeing the gifts Wei Ruo had given, Xiaobei couldn’t help but exclaim, “Young Mistress, you’re so good to our young master!’ “Take good care of your young master. Don’t let him catch the cold and fall ill again. Even though his martial arts skills are highly sophisticated and he has a strong physique, he can’t withstand the freezing cold.” Wei Ruo instructed Xiaobei.
‘■Young Mistress, rest assured, I will take good care of the young master.” Xiaobei responded confidently.
The young master’s previous illness was due to his negligence towards his own health. Now he took better care of himself. In addition, the young mistress had given them an ample supply of medicines for emergencies. If they caught a cold, they could take the medicine Wei Ruo had provided, recover quickly, and avoid major illnesses. So, Xiaobei was not worried at all.
Wei Ruo went over to Wei Jinyi and advised him, “Second brother, take care of yourself and do what you want to do. Write to me when you have time.” “Alright.” Wei Jinyi replied, “Ruo, same goes for you. Do everything as I have taught you.”
Wei Ruo nodded, then watched as Wei Jinyi mounted his horse.
Weijinyi locked eyes with Wei Ruo for a while and then galloped away.
The next time they meet should be during the New Year.

Not long after Wei Jinyi left, disaster-stricken Xingshan County was invaded by Japanese Pirates again.
It had only been two months since the last defeat of the Japanese Pirates, and they had regrouped and attacked so soon.
Luckily Wei Mingting had remained vigilant and maintained the defenses, even during the disaster relief he only mobilized a small number of people, ensuring that the original defensive layout wasn’t disrupted.
So, the pirate’s surprise attack didn’t do too much damage to Xingshan County. But from this moment on, Wei Mingting, along with his soldiers, had to stay fully alert, ready to face a new round of war.
Wei Mingting became very busy once again, staying in the camp for several consecutive days.
With the war situation, Madam Yun no longer felt any jealousy or sorrow. She only wished for her husband to be safe and for peace in Xingshan County.
With the household affairs being so hectic, she delegated the duty of supervising Wei Yilin’s studies to Wei Ruo, asking her to spend some time every day understanding Wei Yilin’s daily learning progress.
Although Wei Ruo didn’t like Wei Yilin, she still had to put up a facade and get the job done.
