A Blessed Daughter - Chapter 007

In fact, Wei Ruo felt that although the original protagonist was a bit reckless, she was not wrong. The ten years she was thrown in the countryside by the He family were very hard. She had no money, no food, no warm clothes, no one to educate her, and no relatives to accompany her. That kind of pain and that kind of resentment could not be perceived by others.

Wasn’t it understandable for her to be angry when she saw someone that had replaced her, lived so well?

However, Wei Ruo’s current thinking was that as long as the female protagonist did not not take initiative to provoke her, she would not actively look to trouble the female protagonist.

One of the survival principles of a cannon fodder* female supporting role: don’t compete with the female lead for the male lead, and don’t compete with the female lead for favors.

*Canon fodder: someone who is sacrificed to benefit the others, someone who is easily disposable.

So Wei Ruo said to Wei Qingwan who was kneeling on the ground: “Don’t kneel to me, I’m not a Bodhisattva in the temple, I don’t need anyone to kneel to me! It’s not like I can grant you a wish. When we hold temple fairs in the countryside, everyone rushes to kneel to the Bodhisattva and make a wish!”

“But I owe it to my sister. Doing this will not change the past, but at least it will make my heart feel less guilty.”

“If you feel that you owe me something, then you should pay me back. If you are thinking about how to make yourself feel less guilty, shouldn’t that be the case?” Wei Ruo asked in return.

Hearing this, Wei Qingwan was startled.

Yun Shi and Wei Yichen were also shocked. It was true that Qingwan’s actions did not help Wei Ruo.

Although both Yun Shi and Wei Yichen believed that Qingwan does not need to blame herself or feel sad, but from Wei Ruo’s point of view, Qingwan’s actions really bothered her.

After pondering for a moment, Wei Qingwan asked Wei Ruo: “What does my sister want me to do to make up for it? As long as my sister asks, I am willing to do it.”

Wei Ruo said, “First of all, you get up first, If you are kneeling like this, people who don’t know will think I am bullying you.”

Wei Ruo cleared their relationship first. Kneeling was Wei Qingwan’s own doing. Do not let Wei Qingwan be wronged, otherwise the blame would be put on her. She would lose her reputation!

Wei Yichen stepped forward to help Wei Qingwan up.

Wei Qingwan got up slowly, raised her head softly, looked at Wei Ruo, and asked softly: “Does my sister have any orders?”

Wei Ruo: “Don’t worry, the future is long. I’ve only just arrived and I don’t know anything yet. You just started calling me sister, sister. I don’t even know who you are and what exactly you owe me.”

Hearing this, Wei Qingwan was stunned again.

“Yes, yes, yes, don’t rush, take your time.” Yun Shi wiped a handful of tears from her eyes, adjusted her emotions and said to Wei Ruo, “Ruo’er, let me introduce you to your siblings first.”

“Your father is not here today and he really wants to see you. But nowadays that the Pirates Invaders are rampant and causing trouble outside the city from time to time, your father really can’t leave.”

Xingshan County was near the sea. Recently, the Pirates had been invading. As a military officer of this place, Wei Mingting was very busy.

This matter was not like anything else, it was related to the safety and security of the people in the city. Wei Mingting should set an example and leave his family behind for everyone. Even if his own first biological daughter had just arrived home, he could not take a leave.

Then Yun Shi introduced: “This is your elder brother Wei Yichen. At our home in the capital, he was the third brother. But now you call him elder brother here.”

The man next to him, who was as gentle as jade and with a tender gaze, smiled at Wei Ruo: “Younger sister, if you have anything to say to me in the future, just let me know.”

Wei Ruo nodded.

Then Yun Shi turned to the boy sitting on the chair next to her: “This is your younger brother, named Yilin. He is seven years old this year. He is the youngest among his family in the capital, and he is the eighth in line.”
