A Blessed Daughter - Chapter 012

“Sister, you will always be my sister, you are not allowed to say that kind of thing! “Wei Yilin pursed his mouth, his eyes were red.

Seeing this scene, Wei Mingting’s face was tense, and his complexion was clouded.

Wei Yichen was also touched by this scene, but he did not come forward to express his opinion. Instead, he glanced in the direction of Wei Ruo, worried that Wei Ruo would feel uncomfortable seeing this scene.

After a while, Yun Shi let go of Wei Qingwan and asked the two children to return to their seats.

Wei Qingwan stood up with the help of Wei Yilin, unsure if she had been kneeling for a long time or feeling weak. Her body swayed and she almost fell back again. Fortunately, Wei Yilin supported her.

Afterwards, Yun Shi also returned to Wei Mingting’s side.

After several people sat down, Wei Mingting and Yun Shi’s gaze returned to Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo had a faint smile on her lips, and her crisp voice broke the silence in the hall.

She asked Wei Mingting, “Did Father and Mother make this decision because I was born at a later time?”

“It’s not…” When Wei Mingting replied, his voice had a rare hint of weakness.

According to the time when the two wives gave birth, it would have been Mrs. Wei who was a little ahead of Mrs. He.

Then, as Mrs. Wei’s biological daughter, Wei Ruo should have been born a little earlier than Wei Qingwan.

“Then, why?” Wei Ruo continued to ask. Her clear, bright eyes gazed at Wei Mingting.

Not knowing whether it was because those eyes were too clear or for some other reason, Wei Mingting remained silent.

Yun Shi helped her husband to explain, “It’s like this, Wanwan is already in the family tree, so to avoid the trouble, your name will be put directly at the end, there is no need to make any other changes.”

Wei Yilin interjected, “My sister is the eldest sister, the eldest daughter of the family. You came later, of course you can not steal sister’s status as the eldest daughter!”

The first and second houses of the Wei family had no daughters. Before Wei Ruo came, Wei Qingwan was the only girl in the family, the eldest daughter.

Although she was not the eldest son but a daughter, she had the word “eldest”. In the capital, where the importance of birth was very significant, the word “eldest” still carried some weight.

“Yilin! What are you talking nonsense about! “Yun shouted fiercely, preventing his youngest son from continuing his nonsense.

Wei Yilin, who had been scolded, pursed his lips, feeling aggrieved and stubborn.

Yun Shi turned her head and explained to Wei Ruo: “It’s not about the status of the eldest daughter and the second daughter. It’s because everyone is used to calling it that way, whether it is here at home or in the capital city. If we change it temporarily, I’m afraid everyone won’t get used to it.”

“Is that the only reason?” Wei Ruo asked again.

Wei Mingting said with a serious expression: “This is a decision that I made after discussing with your mother and careful considerations.”

Everyone looked at Wei Ruo, waiting for her answer.

Just when everyone thought that Wei Ruo would continue to say something to fight for the position of the eldest daughter for herself, Wei Ruo gave everyone an unexpected answer.

“Okay, then I will be the second young lady.”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Wei Ruo in surprise.

Wei Ruo’s questioning made people feel that she was very dissatisfied with the small arrangement she was asked to make. But now she suddenly agreed to it?

“Ruo’er, you really don’t mind?” Yun asked hurriedly.

“Let’s do it conveniently, it’s quite troublesome for everyone to change things around. Father has also been quite busy lately and should not be bothered with such trivial matters. Do Father and Mother intend to change their minds if I disagree anyway?”

Wei Ruo asked back, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, and a sly look in her eyes.
