The Lucky Heiress

Chapter 328: It’s Time to Liven up the

Mansion 1

The hour of Si.

At the door of Wei Yichen’s room, Nurse Zhang was dozing off, while Wei Yihn

was energetic.

Whenever he felt a bit tired, he would stand up and practice a set of punches to

keep him alert.

He couldn’t afford to sleep; he had to keep watch at all times.

At this moment, the courtyard door opened, and Wei Qingwan walked through

the yard to Wei Yichen’s door.

“Sister Wanwan,” Wei Yilin got up to greet her.

“Yilin, why haven’t you gone to sleep yet?” Wei Qingwan asked.

“I’m keeping watch over brother!” Wei Yilin replied.

“You should go and have a break, I’ll take care of our brother.” Wei Qingwan

said.

“No way, I’m a man, and you’re a girl, you should be the one to go rest, I’ll stay here and keep the night watch for brother!” Wei Yilin responded determinedly.

“But you’re still a child, I’m an adult.”

“Not true, I’m not a child anymore, I’m already eight years old! Besides, I practice martial arts; a martial artist should bear responsibilities!” Wei Yilin retorted.

Wei Qingwan was at a loss for words, feeling unfamiliar with the Wei Yilin

before her eyes.

A year ago, her little brother would curl up in her arms, saying she was the best sister. Now he no longer agrees with her words.

Wei Qingwan felt a gap in her heart. In such a short time, Wei Qingruo had successfully destroyed the relationship between her and her brother.

“Sister Wanwan, what’s wrong? Are you uncomfortable? Did the night wind make you cold?” Wei Yilin asked.

■■I’m fine, it’s July now, it’s not cold at night.” Wei Qingwan explained.

Wei Qingwan thought for a moment, then said: “I won’t argue with you, Yihn,

I’ll just go in and check on big brother and then go.”

“You can’t go in, Sister Wanwan,” Wei Yilin stopped her.

-Why?” Wei Qingwan thought she didn’t need to explain much to Wei Yilin, but she didn’t expect even he would stop her.

“Big sister said you can’t go in.” Wei Yilin said.

“Did big sister tell you why I can’t go in?” Wei Qingwan asked.

“Uh… I think she said it’s because you’re a girl, and big brother is a boy.” Wei

Yilin replied.

-But isn’t sister going in and out of big brother’s room too? Now big brother is unconscious, it’s a special time, besides, I’m just bringing some ginseng tea in and will come out very quickly, you can watch me.” Wei Qingwan reasoned.

“I see…” Wei Yilin wavered.

Wei Qingwan sighed with relief, but just as she was about to move forward,

Wei Yilin blocked her again.

“No, it’s still not possible, I already promised big sister that I won’t let you in.”

Wei Yilin insisted.

Wei Yilin remembered what Wei Ruo had told him before she left, he didn’t want to be looked down upon by his big sister!

A real man should keep his word, if he lost his credibility, how could he become a good soldier in the future, how could he stand tall and upright?

“Yilin…” Wei Qingwan looked at Wei Yilin incredulously.

She never imagined, her brother who used to put her first, now listens more to Wei Qingruo who has only been home for less than a year.

“Don’t worry, Sister Wanwan, big brother will wake up tomorrow. You can come and see him when he wakes up.” Wei Yilin comforted her.

After all, he’s a naive little boy, oblivious to Wei Qingwan’s change of expression, only sensing that his Sister Wanwan seemed a bit unhappy, but he thought it was because she was worried about their big brother.

“Yilin, do you also think that sister can’t go in to see big brother?” Wei Qingwan asked.

“I think Sister Wanwan can go in to see big brother.” Wei Yilin replied.

“Then let-”

“No, no, military orders are like mountains, soldiers executing orders have to strictly adhere to rules, there can be no slightest leniency, regardless of whether the order is problematic or not!” Wei Yilin interjected firmly.

He was even more stubborn and firm than Wei Qingwan had imagined.

Wei Qingwan completely froze, looking at Wei Yilin, feeling incredibly unfamiliar.

Nurse Zhang on the side had already prepared to stop Wei Qingwan, but seeing that their young master had already successfully pushed Wei Qingwan back, she gladly continued to feign sleep on the side.

In the end, Wei Qingwan was unable to convince Wei Yilin and had to return the way she came with the ginseng tea.

In the middle of the night, Wei Mingting rushed back home.

When one is in the army, one has little control over their own time, even if their own son is in trouble, they can’t rush back immediately.

Before returning, he had already received news that his son was safe, so Wei Mingting only came back alone, without bringing additional help.

After returning to the residence, Wei Mingting went to see Wei Yichen first. Seeing that there was no danger to his life and that he only needed time to recover, his suspended heart finally sank.

Then he returned to Cangyun Garden and comforted his wife.

Mrs. Yun hadn’t completely recovered yet, but upon seeing her husband, she

felt slightly calmer.

“It’s a good thing we had Ruo’er this time,” Mrs. Yun sighed.

She had to admit that her eldest daughter really resembled her husband, calm and composed when dealing with major issues, and unflappable in the face of changing situations.

Even though she didn’t have much mother-daughter affection for this daughter and wasn’t particularly fond of her, in emergency situations, Mrs. Yun found her daughter very reliable and reassuring.

“Yes, Ruo’er is indeed a competent child. Chen’er’s safe return this time also largely depends on Ruo’er.” Wei Mingting agreed wholeheartedly.

Mrs. Yun nodded, then said: “I wonder which bastard would do such an utterly conscienceless thing to our Chen’er! Chen’er is always so gentle and friendly to others, apart from studying he has no enemies, why would he encounter such a disaster?”

“I’m not sure either.”

Wei Mingting was also filled with confusion – they hadn’t made any enemies in Taizhou Prefecture, and the Loyal and Righteous Duke Residence didn’t involve themselves in any power struggles, why would they encounter such a disaster?

Wei Mingting thought for a while and said: “Tomorrow, I’ll talk to Ruo’er. She is intelligent, thoughtful and may have noticed some clues during the process of rescuing Chen’er.”

Mrs. Yun nodded.

After a peaceful night, early the next morning, Mrs. Yun came to visit Wei Yichen.

Wei Yichen’s fever had subsided, but he didn’t wake up. Mrs. Yun became very anxious and immediately sent someone to fetch Doctor Cheng again. Meanwhile, Wei Ruo, who was in Tingsong Garden, received news from Cangyun Garden – Wei Mingting had returned home late last night.

“Father is back, it looks like I should stir things up in the mansion.” Wei Ruo said, dressing neatly.

She didn’t say anything yesterday, only instructed people to be on guard against Wei Qingwan. Aside from Wei Yichen having a fever, another part of the reason she was waiting was for Wei Mingting’s return.

“Let’s go, Meimei, follow me to Wangmei Garden.” After saying this, Wei Ruo walked towards the outside.

-Miss, what are we going to Wangmei Garden for?” Xiumei quickly followed.

“To capture someone, and to accuse.”

Wei Ruo, bearing a brisk and resolute pace, arrived at the entrance of Wangmei Garden with Xiumei..
