“Does Ruoruo have anything else?” Xie Ying asked.
“Some charcoal.” Wei Ruo replied.
-Where did Ruoruo get the charcoal? When I asked my mother, she said it’s getting cold quickly this year, and charcoal isn’t easy to buy.” “I purchased it early, which of course would be more difficult these days. I remember telling you about this before.
“You did mention, but my mother thought it was too early, afraid that the charcoal would get damp if bought too soon, and when we wanted to buy more these days, it was already too late.”
-Don’t worry, I have plenty left, even silver-charcoal. If your manor is short, I can lend some to you,” Wei Ruo suggested.
“There’s no need,” Xie Jue took over, “My father has already ordered a batch from the Capital City, which will be shipped here by river in a few days. Our manor won’t run out of charcoal. It’s just that we can’t provide the disaster-stricken commoners with charcoal now.
-Alright then,” said Wei Ruo, ending the discussion on that matter. After their conversation, Wei Jinyi arrived on horseback, with a cart full of charcoal behind him.
Seeing Wei Jinyi, Xie Ying asked curiously, “Ruoruo, who is this?”
“This is my second brother,” Wei Ruo answered.
“Your second brother? Why haven’t I seen him before?” Xie Ying asked.
Hearing this, Xie Jue couldn’t help but say, “Sister, isn’t it normal that you haven’t seen men from other families? It would be more strange if you have met them all.”
Which girl meets men from other families every day?
Ordinarily, the opportunities to meet men from other families are very limited.
Like now, it’s a special occasion under special circumstances.
“That’s true, I indeed haven’t met many,” Xie Ying considered seriously before saying.
Then Xie Jue scrutinized Wei Jinyi, “However, I’ve never met the second brother of Miss Wei’s family either.
It was normal that Xie Ying hadn’t met him, but it was strange that even Xie
Jue hadn’t.
Wei Mingting had been working in Xingshan County for some time, and Wei Jinyi seemed to be about the same age as him. Logically, they should have met several times.
He had often seen the eldest son of the Wei Family, Wei Yichen, but he had never seen this second young master before.
Curiosity and scrutiny shone in Xie Jue’s eyes as he looked at Wei Jinyi.
Although he had never met him in person, he had heard a little about Wei Jinyi.
It was said that he was a melancholic, introverted, and timid person.
But the man standing in front of him was a graceful young master, with bright eyes and white teeth, elegant manners. There wasn’t a trace of melancholy or timidity.
-My second brother likes to keep to himself and usually stays at home, that’s why Big Brother Xie never met him,” Wei Ruo explained for Wei Jinyi.
Wei Jinyi took the initiative to greet Xie Jue, “Wei Jinyi has met Young Master
Xie.”
Xie Jue immediately returned the greeting and asked, “Xie Jue has met the Second Young Master Wei. Where are you studying now?
