Wei Ruo's question left Mrs. Yun unsure of how to respond.
Reluctant as she was, she had to concede that Wei Ruo had a point.
After a considerable silence, Mrs. Yun reluctantly replied, "Since you've decided, do as you say."
"I will return then."
"Uhm." Mrs. Yun nodded, then remembered her husband's words, "Take the whip to Yilin yourself. Your father wants you to discipline Yilin more. Take this opportunity to check on his recent studies as well. If there are any areas where he is lacking, you can encourage him."
"Alright."
Wei Ruo agreed and then left Cangyun Garden, heading for the Chrysanthemum Garden.
Today was a rare day off for Wei Yilin. Even so, he remained in his courtyard, not going anywhere, burrowed in bed for a long sleep.
Hearing movement, Wei Yilin raised his head. Upon seeing Wei Ruo, he grimaced and went back to sleep.
He wasn't really asleep, just too exhausted to move.
