The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1088

Chapter 1088: Chapter 911, Luring Out of the City

Ganzhou Guard’s June is the hottest, and Daohua, gazing at the scorching sun in the sky, thought about Xiao Yeyang who was running errands outside: "Such hot weather, I hope he doesn’t get heatstroke. Had I known buying a horse would take this long, I should have prepared more heatstroke prevention medicine for Xiao Yeyang."

Gu Jian noticed his disciple’s concern and said, "Yeyang is an adult now, and he has the trusted aide De Fu by his side, so don’t worry."

Daohua languidly nodded: "I just feel that Xiao Yeyang is too tired."

Gu Jian: "Who isn’t tired when trying to achieve great things? Beijing may be comfortable, but it’s full of schemes. Xiliang, though tougher, just needs to wait until the military posts are established and the defense system of Xiliao has been perfected, then Yeyang can relax a bit."

Daohua was not so optimistic: "Even if we fend off the people from Xiliao, there are still domestic issues in Xiliang."

Gu Jian: "Governing Xiliang can be taken slowly, there’s no rush."

Daohua thought about it and said no more. After Gu Jian went to the pharmacy, she started dealing with the affairs of the residence.

"Big Brother Yan, why are you here at the residence at this time?"

Guyu had just brought back the bird’s nest porridge Daohua wanted from the kitchen, and before she even reached the gate, she saw Yan Shouhou pacing back and forth in front of the gate, looking hesitant to enter.

Seeing Guyu approach, Yan Shouhou hesitated and then said, "I heard something, and I’m not sure if I should tell Madam."

Seeing him like this, Guyu did not ask what it was, but seriously said: "Big Brother Yan, as servants, our role is to be the eyes and ears for our master."

"What the matter itself entails should be judged by the master. What we need to do is fulfill our own duties. Deciding for our master is definitely something we cannot do."

"You came to the residence at this time, which means you feel you should tell the lady. Since that’s the case, why hesitate?"

Upon hearing these words, Yan Shouhou hurriedly bowed and thanked her, "Thank you, Sister Guyu. I was indeed overthinking."

Soon after, they both entered the courtyard.

Daohua was somewhat surprised seeing Yan Shouhou: "What’s the matter?"

Since there were only Guyu and Lixia in the room, Yan Shouhou shared what he had just heard at the guard station: "Madam, while the son-in-law went to Jianzhou Guard to buy horses, the merchants from Xiliao gifted the gentleman with several dancing girls."

Daohua was doing the accounts, and upon hearing this, her brush suddenly pressed against the paper, leaving a blot of ink on the account book in an instant.

Upon hearing this, Guyu and Lixia were both visibly shocked.

Guyu looked at Yan Shouhou, finally understanding why he had been so hesitant before. This kind of matter indeed was difficult to speak of!

Daohua was silent for a moment, laid down her brush, and looked at Yan Shouhou with a seemingly calm expression: "Tell everything you heard, and do not hide anything."

Yan Shouhou: "...On the second day at Jianzhou Guard, Lord Wei and the Commander of Jianzhou Guard hosted a banquet for our young master and presented several Xiliao dancing girls to him on the spot."

"One of the dancing girls stayed in our young master’s tent, and she has been serving him throughout his time at Jianzhou Guard."

Yan Shouhou struggled to finish his words, then hung his head and stared at the ground.

Hearing this, both Guyu and Lixia were stunned, and seeing Daohua’s stoic face, they grew very worried.

Daohua remained silent, her face showing little change, but her hand on the account book crumpled a page, betraying her inner turmoil.

The room was oppressively quiet for a while, and then Daohua finally spoke: "Xiao Yeyang has not yet returned, how do the people at the guard station know what happened there?"

Yan Shouhou: "The young master bought five thousand foals, and had Lord Fan send them back first, and today Mr. Wang from the institute asked me about the terraced field renovations, and I happened to run into Lord Fan at the guard station."

Daohua’s heart had gone from initial shock to calm, and she asked coolly: "Although it’s not odd for Xiao Yeyang to take dancing girls, you are my man."
