Wei Yilin was very afraid of Wei Mingting. When Wei Mingting’s expression became serious, he immediately lowered his head and didn’t dare to speak.

When Wei Mingting was not around on weekdays, he would sometimes say something like this to secretly slander Wei Ruo. No one in the family was angry, so he became accustomed to it.

“If it’s unintentional, it’s okay. If it’s intentional to slander and disrespect your older sister, you shouldn’t eat with us today. Go and stand in the yard!” Wei Mingting said coldly.

Hearing this, Yun Shi quickly begged for mercy for her younger son: “Yilin must have done it unintentionally. Husband, please don’t be angry.”

Wei Yilin lowered his head very low and lightly nodded.

Seeing this, Wei Mingting did not pursue the matter further.

Wei Yichen explained to Wei Yilin from the side: “Yilin, the craft of brewing is not as crude and shallow as you think. Good brewing recipes are usually secrets that passed down from generation to generation in a family, and there is a royal distillery in the palace where the brewing masters hold official positions.”

“I understand……” Wei Yilin whispered in response.

Actually, he also knew what the eldest brother said. He just said that just because he didn’t want her sister Wanwan to be compared with Wei Qingruo.

Wei Jinyi only pretended to take a sip of the remaining wine in his cup. But in fact, he didn’t drink even a drop of it. Wei Ruo saw it and knew that after the last lesson, he would never easily touch the wine, even if it was not strong enough.

Everyone finished the meal and the wine. Wei Mingting drank most of it, when the rest just took a few sips.

As for Wei Mingting’s alcohol tolerance, he couldn’t get drunk even with seven or eight jars of fruit wine.

He loves wine, but when he has official duties, he resolutely refuses to drink. Now that he has achieved great victory, in a rare occasion of celebration at home, he happily drinks this jar of good wine.

When the party was over, Wei Mingting unexpectedly took the initiative to ask Wei Ruo: “If Ruo’er makes another wine next time, how about giving it to Father as well?”

Wei Ruo couldn’t refuse, so she said: “Okay, I’ll remember Father’s share next time I brew wine.”

She didn’t know when she would brew a wine again next time. And freshly brewed wine couldn’t be drunk right away, it had to be left for a long time. So she didn’t know when Wei Mingting would drink her next brewed wine again. 

As for the jars that were still stored in her warehouse, Wei Mingting only said that he would wait until the next time she brewed, and did not mention the ones that were already available, so naturally there was no need to give any to him.

Wei Mingting said: “Okay, then Father will wait for Ruo’er’s next good wine.”

After the banquet ended, everyone left the dining room one after another. As soon as Wei Ruo walked out of the door, Wei Qingwan walked towards her.

Wei Qingwan took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Wei Ruo and presented her with a purse that she personally embroidered:

“Sister, this purse was embroidered by me. I’m not as capable as sister, I only know how to embroider, I hope sister won’t mind.”

-embroidered purse

Wei Ruo turned to look at Wei Qingwan, but did not reach out to pick it up.

Seeing Wei Ruo hesitating, Wei Qingwan explained: “I have already memorized what sister taught at the Qiqiao Festival, but I can’t think of any good way to express my sincerity to sister. So I embroidered a purse to express my feelings.”

Wei Ruo looked at Wei Qingwan sharply. Wei Qingwan didn’t know whether it was because of a guilty conscience or something else, but she lowered her head and avoided looking at Wei Ruo.

“Okay, then I’ll take it.” Wei Ruo suddenly reached out and took the purse.

Immediately after, Wei Ruo saw Wei Yichen coming out of the dining room and handed him the purse.

“Ruo’er, what is this?” Wei Yichen looked at Wei Ruo in confusion.
