In the end, however, a crack had formed in her heart. When touched, those buried emotions would surge forth uncontrollably.

“Madam, please don’t ask about this matter any further.” Unable to provide his wife with a satisfying answer, Wei Mingting ended the conversation abruptly.

Watching him turn and head to the study, Yun Shi sank sadly into her chair.

Yun Shi didn’t know what’s wrong with her today, why did she have to tear open this hole? It had been buried in her heart for many years.

Perhaps it’s because Jinyi had become more active recently, and her presence constantly reminds her husband and another woman of their sweet past.

This time, Wei Jinyi stayed at home for half a month. After helping Wei Ruo with relief efforts for disaster victims, he was ready to leave again.

Wei Ruo came to see him off, bringing an entire cart of supplies.

Seeing the cart, Xiaobei couldn’t help but remark, “Young Miss, you’re truly too kind to our young master!”

“Take good care of him and make sure he doesn’t catch a cold or fall ill. He may be strong and skilled, but even he can’t withstand freezing conditions indefinitely.” Wei Ruo instructed Xiaobei.

“Don’t worry, Young Miss, I’ll take good care of him.” Xiaobei replied confidently.

The last time the young master fell ill was due to his own disregard for his health. Things were different now, he had started to take care of himself. With the many emergency medicines the Young Miss provided, even if he caught a chill, he could recover quickly without letting minor illnesses turn severe. Xiaobei wasn’t concerned.

Wei Ruo walked over to Wei Jinyi and reminded him, “Second Brother, take care of yourself, pursue what you want to do, and if you have time, write me a letter.”

“Alright,” Wei Jinyi replied. “You, too, follow what I’ve taught you if anything comes up.”

Wei Ruo nodded and watched as Wei Jinyi mounted his horse. He looked back at her for a long moment before turning and riding away.

They wouldn’t see each other again until the New Year.

Not long after Wei Jinyi left, the troubled Xingshan County faced yet another attack by Japanese pirates.

It had only been two months since their last crushing defeat, yet they had returned so quickly.

Fortunately, Wei Mingting had never let his guard down. Defenses were kept intact, and even for disaster relief efforts, only a small number of people were mobilized to avoid compromising their positions.

Thus, this surprise attack didn’t cause much harm to Xingshan County.

From that moment on, Wei Mingting and his soldiers had to stay extremely vigilant, ready to face a new round of war at any time.

Wei Mingting quickly became occupied, staying at the military camp for several nights in a row.

With the onset of conflict, Yun Shi no longer felt any jealousy or sorrow, she only wished for her husband’s safety and for peace in Xingshan County.

Due to the busyness of household affairs, Yun Shi entrusted the task of overseeing Wei Yilin’s studies to Wei Ruo, instructing her to check on his progress daily.

Although Wei Ruo wasn’t fond of Wei Yilin, she still had to keep up appearances.

So, after returning from the Xie family’s residence today, she headed to Aoju Garden.

Before even reaching the courtyard gate, she heard the crisp sound of a whip cracking inside. Entering, she saw Wei Yilin practicing with the whip that she had previously given him.

Wei Ruo watched from the side for a while, noticing that the kid was surprisingly good at it.
