The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1085

Chapter 1085: Chapter 908, Compromise

Daohua originally thought that after Dong Yuanyao reunited with the Dong Family, she would take a few days before coming to visit her. Unexpectedly, the very next day, Dong Yuanyao arrived at the Xiao Residence with a pair of puffy red eyes.

"What happened?"

Daohua was startled.

The moment Dong Yuanyao saw Daohua, she picked up a handkerchief and started to sob quietly.

Seeing her like this, Daohua was puzzled and quickly sat beside her, asking, "What’s wrong, have your uncle and aunt said something to you?"

Dong Yuanyao shook her head; after a long while, she spoke with a tearful voice, "I’m just sad for my elder brother..."

Daohua immediately understood what Dong Yuanyao meant: "Elder Brother Dong is getting married, you didn’t know?"

Dong Yuanyao nodded.

Daohua fell silent for a moment then carefully said, "I think Sister-in-Law Xiaoman is quite nice, even though she’s somewhat different from the noble ladies we usually interact with, but her personality is good and straightforward, without too many detours."

Dong Yuanyao continued to sob, "Mother also said she’s a good person, but... but she’s really not a match for my elder brother. Standing together, she even looks more robust than him."

"Just thinking about how my graceful and refined brother is marrying a rough and stout wife chokes my heart."

Daohua argued, "Sister-in-Law Xiaoman is not rough and stout at all, she’s just a bit taller, that’s all. She’s still breastfeeding, which is why she looks a bit plump right now."

"When she stops breastfeeding later, she will naturally slim down. You might not know this, but people from Xiliang are generally tall."

Dong Yuanyao gradually stopped sobbing, but her eyes were still red: "I know, being exiled to Xiliang, it was already the best outcome that my brother could marry her, but... but..." saying this, tears started to well up in her eyes again.

Daohua quickly poured her a cup of tea and comforted her: "I understand how you feel, but I think Elder Brother Dong really likes Sister-in-Law Xiaoman."

Dong Yuanyao remained silent. Was her elder brother just compromising with fate?

Daohua continued, "It’s fine to cry here with me, but when you go back, you can’t be like this. Sister-in-Law Xiaoman might be a bit straightforward, but that doesn’t mean she can’t read faces, especially since you’re Elder Brother Dong’s sister."

"The couple is very happy together, so don’t go stirring up trouble for them."

Dong Yuanyao: "I’m not stupid."

Seeing that Dong Yuanyao was comforted, Daohua let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Marriage is all about fate; we shouldn’t judge it by worldly standards."

"Like me and Xiao Yeyang, and you and Sun Changze, if we were to comply by worldly standards, could we even end up together?"

Dong Yuanyao silently remarked, "I understand, it’s just painful in my heart."

Daohua smiled, "I know, in your eyes Elder Brother Dong is the best brother, and naturally, you’d hope for the best girl to match him."

"But what’s ’best’ is not for us to say; it has to be what Elder Brother Dong feels is truly best for him. If you can’t get over it, you might want to talk with Elder Brother Dong about it, see what he thinks."

Dong Yuanyao: "...Maybe you’re right."

Daohua patted her hand: "Spend more time with Sister-in-Law Xiaoman and you’ll see she’s a good person."

Dong Yuanyao nodded, "Don’t worry, I know my limits." With a sigh, she said, "I’m feeling much better now and will get along well with my sister-in-law."

Since my sister-in-law saved my grandmother and gave birth to the Dong Family’s first grandson, I will give her the respect she deserves for these two reasons alone.

Daohua smiled and brought over a freshly made cream cake roll to Dong Yuanyao, "The kitchen servants just tried out this new pastry, why don’t you taste it and see if it’s good?"

Daohua smiled, "That’s great. Last year, my uncle also started doing business here, bringing goods from other inland areas to sell. Now Ganzhou City has become much more lively." _{freeweɓnovel.cѳm}
