Luo Yining always felt that she was strong enough inside, but Lu Jiaxue would still make her lose her composure, and she was afraid that this would not change even after another twenty years.
When she raised her head, she had returned to normal and said to Wei Ling who had just entered, "I'll help you tidy up your desk."
Wei Ling just glanced at the desk, smiled and praised her: "It's much tidier now, thanks to you for tidying it up!" Fu Ping said that girls should be spoiled, as long as she is happy, he can turn this study upside down.
The two girls looked at each other, realizing that they had been right not to stop him. Then they quietly retreated.
Yi Ning asked Wei Ling to sit down on the armchair, and she sat next to him: "I came to tell you about Songzhi and Qingqu..."
Wei Ling frowned slightly when he heard this and said, "They are the girls you brought from the Luo family. I have to be wary of the Luo family and can't let them serve you closely. Since you brought them here, they will be in charge of the affairs of your courtyard, but they can't stay by your side."
Yi Ning knew it wouldn't be easy to convince Wei Ling, so she continued, "I brought them here, so of course I trust them." She looked at Wei Ling and smiled, "Then do you trust me?"
Wei Ling didn't answer for a moment. She could do whatever she pleased with other matters, but he couldn't give in on this matter of the girl.
But she grabbed his hand and shook it, saying, "If you trust me, I should make the decision, don't you think?"
Wei Ling stared at the girl's hand clutching his. It was rare for her to actively approach him. If only she could act coquettishly. Other girls always acted coquettishly with their fathers, but Yi Ning's personality definitely wouldn't allow that. She couldn't do such a thing... Wei Ling suddenly felt a sense of regret.
She had said so, how could he not agree to her? Wei Ling sighed, "Well, you can do whatever you want with the maid in your room." He added, "But Pearl must stay with you."
Of course, Yining also values Zhenzhu very much. Zhenzhu knows the Duke of Yingguo’s Mansion very well. Although it cannot completely focus on Yining, it is at least better than Tortoise Shell.
By this time, the sky had gradually darkened. The maid brought in a candlestick, and the room was immediately lit up with a warm yellow light.
Wei Ling asked Yining if she was hungry so that he could ask the maid to prepare dinner.
Yining was honestly a little hungry, so Wei Ling reached out and touched Yining's head: "Meimei, wait. Daddy will go to dinner with you as soon as he replies to the letter."
Yi Ning smiled and nodded at him. She felt a sense of familiarity, a familiar feeling only found in family members.
Wei Ling walked over to the desk to write his reply. Yi Ning saw his tall figure, illuminated by the candlelight, looking even taller than the Duobao Pavilion. She felt a little sleepy waiting, but she also felt very safe with Wei Ling. She leaned against the armchair and waited quietly for him to write his letter.
Wei Ling finished writing his reply and sent the guards in to take it out. He turned around and saw the little girl still leaning against the armchair, huddled obediently, perhaps drowsy from waiting. She was so delicate and slender, so out of place with the tall chair and the solemn surroundings. He suddenly felt a sense of fatherly responsibility. This child was so delicate and truly needed his protection.
Wei Ling gently called her up. Yi Ning was still drowsy and let him lead her out of the study. It was already late outside.
When I woke up, Yining was already sitting at the table eating.
After dinner, Wei Ling personally sent her back home. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and said to her, "From now on, you should supervise your brother's homework. He's very naughty, and I'm the only one who can control him. If he doesn't listen to you, tell me and I'll teach him a lesson." Wei Ling felt that his son couldn't be spoiled anymore. He had to be spanked to make him behave. Especially since he had been away for a few years, the child had been spoiled beyond recognition.
It's not okay for his son to be close to Zhao Mingzhu and not to his own sister. What if, when he's old and the child inherits the position of Duke of Yingguo, he gets into trouble with Yi Ning?
"You don't have to get up early. I'll have him come to see you tomorrow." Wei Ling said, "He is currently being taught by Cheng Lang. Cheng Lang will come to give him a lesson tomorrow, and you can also listen."
Yi Ning respectfully bid Wei Ling farewell, feeling a bit of a headache. The last time she and Cheng Lang were like that...who knew what would happen when they met tomorrow.
