Reborn Lady

Chapter 81

For a while, Wei Luo didn’t know what to say, and looking at the part she copied, he praised, “Your handwriting is very good.” 

Yin Hui: “Then take your time, I will go to see if Xiao Heng is awake.” 

With that, she got up and left. 

Wei Luo sat quietly for a while, opened the old exclusive copy, and then copied it for her. 

On the pale yellow rice paper, another kind of sharp handwriting gradually appeared. 

Knowing that Yin Hui brought back five books from the Yin family in one go, in the next few days, if there was no need to socialize, Wei Luo decided to stay in the study with her, and the two could each make a copy 

Exclusive old copies were precious, but Wei Luo had no intention of withholding them, he was already content with owning hand-copied books. 

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, King Yan asked his sons to ride out of the city on horseback to enjoy the scenery in the suburbs.

What kind of scenery could there be in the winter? Looking around, the willows were bare with branches and leaves, and there were only patches of loess that were about to freeze in the field. Occasionally, a gust of wind blew head-on, and the second master Wei Yan shrunk into his collar. 

King Yan liked the vastness outside the city very much. Sometimes he rode fast, and when he stopped, he took turns talking to his sons. 

Stopping again, he gestured at Wei Luo, who consciously drove his horse to his father’s side. 

King Yan asked, “What is the youngest up to now? I don’t seem to have seen you go out.” 

Wei Luo said, “Copying books. Madam Yin brought a few military books from home. I am copying them down so that I can study them in my free time.” 

There was also a large collection of books in the palace. King Yan himself was good at martial arts, and he had collected almost all the war strategies and military books of famous masters since ancient times. Therefore, when Wei Luo said it, King Yan understood. 

“True copies? What books are they?”  Wei Luo reported the title of the books, there were three sets of military books, one set of travel notes on mountains and rivers, and one on historical figures. 

Wei Yan, who heard that, said with a smile, “Since she brought them all back, Third Brother, you can read the original book directly, why bother to copy it? 

“I will return them back as soon as possible.” 

Wei Yan secretly observed his father’s expression and jokingly said, “So you borrowed them. I thought your wife knew that you like to read them, so she brought them to give to you.” 

King Yan glanced at him. How could they just give them away? 

He also didn’t want his third son to casually accept expensive gifts from the Yin family. 

Back then, if the military supplies were not tight, King Yan would never have cared about the money of the Yin family. He himself was not greedy, nor did he want any of his sons to be greedy. 

“You can’t take it. A gentleman doesn’t take what others like. Third child, your wife is very good. She loves books and is sensible. You should copy them quickly and return them as soon as possible. By the way, remember to show them to me after you are done copying them,” Yan Wang affirmed the behavior of the third son and his wife. 

Wei Yan rubbed his nose, the third brother’s marriage seemed to be inappropriate, but the benefits were really not small. Unlike him and his eldest brother, whose wife and her family had not helped them in anything. 

In King Yan’s mansion, a letter from Uncle Zhou came for Yin Hui from the outside. 

When she received the letter, she felt very uneasy, fearing that Uncle Zhou’s toothache may be revealed, or that he might not have found a suitable person to go to Hejian Mansion to look for the doctor. After she read the letter, she regained her smile. 

Uncle Zhou said two things in the letter. First, he chose four reliable guards for Yin Lang, and sent them to him for the time being. If Yin Hui still wanted to check, he could choose the most suitable two from the four guards after going  back next time. Second, Uncle Zhou’s father-in-law suddenly suffered from dental disease and the pain was unbearable. He wanted to go and take care of his father-in-law. If Yin Hui needed to find him in an urgent matter, she could send someone to his father-in-law’s house. 

Others might think it was just an ordinary letter, but Yin Hui understood what Uncle Zhou meant. Uncle Zhou was telling her that he didn’t have to pretend to have a toothache anymore, because his father-in-law really had a toothache. Whatever plan Yin Hui had, it would go more smoothly.

Fortunately, Yin Hui also sympathized with Uncle Zhou’s father-in-law. He might be cured immediately by a doctor, but it would be delayed for a month because of her plan. 

Yin Hui asked Jinzhan to wrap ten taels of silver and send it to the messenger, which was her kindness to make up for Uncle Zhou’s father-in-law. 

Before lunch at noon, Wei Luo and his son came back, Yin Hui didn’t see anyone else, but seeing Wei Luo’s face blown white by the cold wind, she secretly took pleasure in his misfortune. 

After drinking a bowl of hot tea, Wei Luo’s face recovered a bit of blood. He glanced at her and played with Xiao Heng on the couch. 

Yin Hui mentioned Uncle Zhou’s letter as if chatting. 

Whether it was about Yin Lang’s guard or Uncle Zhou’s father-in-law tooth disease, Wei Luo didn’t take it to heart, and talked about his own arrangement, “You and I will continue to copy books in the afternoon, and I will accompany you to return the books on the evening of the fifteenth, and then walk around the city for half an hour.” 

He promised that he would accompany her out to enjoy the lanterns, so he would definitely do it.

It was just that the kind of pampering his wife had always been the way of the second brother, and Wei Luo disdained it. But with the excuse of returning the bookS, and his father urging him to return it as soon as possible, he was not afraid of being ridiculed by his brothers. 

Yin Hui didn’t want to go to watch the lanterns with him. It was cold enough to go to the Lantern Festival. The request to go see the lanterns that day was just to give him a step down. 

Just as she was about to refuse, she suddenly hesitated again. It was rare for Wei Luo to lower his head. If she let it go lightly, next time something similar happened, he might think that she was just talking casually. 

After weighing it up, Yin Hui smiled at him happily and said, “That’s great, I thought you forgot about it.” 

Wei Luo was slightly taken aback. 

After being married for so long, he had never seen her smile so brightly. 

Did she just like going out to see lanterns so much, or was she happy that he was willing to accompany her? 

The author has something to say: . 

Third Master: Let’s go, go out and enjoy the lanterns. 

Huihui wrapped her cloak tightly in regret.
