When they had just separated, her younger brother had once said that he would find a way to convince their parents to let him return to her side.

But now, he had completely forgotten those words. Not only had he never brought up the matter again, but he also seemed quite satisfied with the arrangements that Wei Ruo had made for him.

Wei Qingwan bit her lip, feeling as if she had been abandoned.

When Wei Qingruo had just returned to the mansion, she had already feared that this would happen. And as expected, she had been right all along.

At that moment, Yun Shi’s gaze happened to fall on Wei Qingwan. She said to her, “Wanwan, after we move to the prefectural city this time, you must be even more careful and cautious in your actions. Do not make the same mistake as last time.”

“I understand, Mother…” Wei Qingwan lowered her head and answered softly.

The hands resting on her lap tightened slightly.

Mother had brought up the past again, striking right at her sore spot.

“If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask Ruoruo. Learn from her.” Yun Shi added.

Once, when Wei Ruo had just returned home, Yun Shi had reminded her to learn from Wei Qingwan, to ask her about anything she did not understand.

But in just a short time, their roles had reversed. Now, it was Qingwan who was being told to learn from Ruoruo.

In the past, Yun Shi had believed that in terms of proper etiquette and the demeanor of a noble lady, Wanwan—who had been raised by her side since childhood—was undoubtedly more knowledgeable.

However, their trip to the prefectural city made Yun Shi realize that although Wanwan was well-mannered, she was timid. When facing someone like Madam Yuan, she was overly reserved and fearful, unlike her eldest daughter, who carried herself with confidence and ease.

“I understand, Mother. I will learn from my elder sister.” Wei Qingwan replied softly, lifting her gaze to look at Wei Ruo with gentle eyes.

Wei Ruo simply held a faint smile at the corners of her lips, neither responding nor objecting.

“As for the matter of Ruoruo and Wanwan’s lessons… I haven’t made a decision yet. If either of you has any suggestions, you may let me know.” Yun Shi said, looking between Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan.

Wei Qingwan lowered her head and answered quietly, “I will leave the decision entirely to Mother.”

Wei Qingwan also understood that their Wei family had no foundation in the prefectural city, so it would be difficult for them to attend someone else’s school.

Moreover, the Wei family did not have the right connections to hire a good female teacher.

Wei Ruo replied, “Let’s talk about this after I visit the Xie residence tomorrow. Since I’m leaving Xingshan County, I should bid farewell to my teacher.”

Compared to Wei Qingwan’s uncertainty, Wei Ruo remained much calmer and more composed.

Though the difference wasn’t drastic, it still left a subtle but distinct impression.

Then, Yun Shi turned to Wei Yichen and said, “Yichen, once we arrive in the prefectural city, don’t just stay at home all the time. Preparing for the provincial exam is important, but socializing with the sons of noble families there will also be beneficial for you.”

Wei Yichen nodded. “I understand, Mother.”

Yun Shi then gave more instructions regarding the move and reminded everyone, “These last few days in Xingshan County will be the final time you all dine together. Once we are in the prefectural city, certain formalities that were previously overlooked must now be observed. Yichen, Ruoruo, and Wanwan are all grown up now—it is no longer appropriate for you to dine at the same table. From now on, men and women will dine separately.”

Everyone acknowledged her words in agreement.

The next day, Wei Ruo visited the Xie residence.

Because of matters related to the prefectural city, she had already used Madam Yuan as an excuse to take several leaves of absence. Fortunately, Teacher Wang did not blame her.
