Although Wei Jinyi did not respond, she agreed with Xiaobei’s view in her heart.
She really liked this brother, and if one day she learned the truth… she didn’t know if she would be heartbroken.
Xiaobei couldn’t resist asking again: “Young Master, are we really going to Huzhou Prefecture? If we go there, we won’t see the young lady again.”
“Yes, we have to go.” Wei Jinyi had made up her mind.
There were some things that were inconvenient to do in Wei Residence. Only by going out could he get the freedom to act.
Seeing Wei Jinyi’s changes, Xiaobei was happy but also worried. The young master had always been avoiding people all these years. Now he had changed his mind, he didn’t know if this was a good or bad thing.

A few days later, they received a return letter from Huzhou Prefecture. The recommendation letter from Heyou was very effective, and the Tibetan layman planned to meet Wei Jinyi in person.
So, Wei Jinyi prepared to set off for Huzhou Prefecture.
Wei Mingting personally ordered Yunshi to prepare Wei Jinyi’s luggage, carriage and horses to ensure a smooth journey for Wei Jinyi.
Yunshi did not dare to neglect his order, but she felt a bit lost. Her second son who had always been insignificant in the Residence got the chance to become a disciple of the Tibetan layman, while her elder son who had been praised by the teacher’s classmates had to stay in Xingshan County, desperately seeking the next opportunity.
When Wei Jinyi left, Wei Ruo did not see him off. She just prepared a box of farewell gifts for Wei Jinyi and gave it to Xiaobei the day before.
After Wei Jinyi left, Wei Ruo sat in the yard, propping her chin with one hand and sighed unconsciously.
“I suddenly feel that my decision is not very wise. There’s no one to talk to at home. With the departure, it feels even more desolate.
Xiumei said, “Miss, I have no way to influence this. You made this decision. If you feel bored, then I must suffer a bit and accompany you more to talk.” “Good Mei mei, don’t be jealous of my brother. You are the most important, you are the person who talks to me the most. I can bear to lose anyone, but not you,” Wei Ruo explained hastily.
Xiumei was made to giggle by Wei Ruo, “Alright, alright, Miss, are you hungry again and want me to make you something delicious?”
“No, no, it’s all from my heart, no tactics,” Wei Ruo said with a chuckle.

Time flashed to the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and the weather turned cool.
On the first day of the eighth month, it was overcast, and the mood of the people was also like the weather.
The reason was nothing more than the poor growth of this year’s rice. The rice ears had fewer grains and were not full. Many of them were empty, and it was foreseeable that the grain situation would be poor this year.
At the same time, the sweet potatoes on Xiaoyang Mountain were also harvested.
Compared with the sorrow of other farming estates’ workers, Xiaoyang Mountain was filled with joy of the harvest.
The hired farmhands turned the earth, dug up sweet potatoes, and then carried them down the mountain in loads.
The long-term and short-term farmhands in the nearby estates craned their necks to watch.
