The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1198

Chapter 1198: Chapter 1021: Fallen Out of Favor

Gu Moyan, Daohua, and Xiao Yeyang’s youngest son’s formal name.

Gu Jian had never asked for anything from the Emperor. When he wanted to adopt Gu Moyan, the Emperor acted swiftly. The day after receiving the request, he immediately issued a decree appointing Gu Moyan as the Princely Heir of the Assisting Duke.

Once the imperial edict was announced, several Princes eyeing the title of Assisting Duke felt resentment, but since they had anticipated this, it didn’t come as a complete surprise.

On the day the twins celebrated their first month, the imperial edict arrived in Liangdu, and the guests watched with envy as Xiao Yeyang received the edict.

The happiest among them was Gu Jian, who, after receiving the edict, took it to his small Buddhist hall to offer it up before Granny Gu’s ancestral tablet.

"Sister, the Gu Family has an heir now."

Gu Jian knelt before the ancestral tablet, staring at it, and as he thought of Granny Gu’s concern before her death that there would be no one to offer incense after he was gone, his eyes slowly moistened: "If only you were still alive..."

Main Courtyard.

Daohua, still in her postpartum confinement, did not go to receive the imperial edict. Listening to Guyu recounting the content of the edict, she gazed distractedly at her son smacking his lips.

Her youngest son will now belong to the Gu Family!

After a moment’s stupor, Daohua shook her head with a smile, picked up her full and content son, and started walking around the room: "Even with a changed surname, he is still my son."

After the noon banquet, Daozi, Xiao Moreng, and Xiao Mokuan were playing and fishing in the courtyard.

Daozi caught a small goldfish and excitedly placed it in a clear glass tank: "I want to catch another one, so Daomang and Daomiao can each have one."

After a strenuous half-hour, Daozi finally caught another small goldfish, then cheerfully declared, "I’m going to bring the fish to Daomang and Daomiao."

Xiao Moreng laughed and said, "Daomang and Daomiao are still too small; they can’t play with the fish you bring them!"

Daozi didn’t much care: "Then I will just place it in the room for them to look at."

Without waiting for Xiao Moreng to say anything else, he carefully carried the glass tank and left.

When Daozi returned to the main courtyard, as soon as he entered the room, he saw his mother sitting on the bed, lovingly teasing her younger siblings with a rattle drum while sorting through gifts from the guests.

Looking at the gifts, Daozi paused and then felt a sense of loss. In the past, whenever someone came to the Prince Residence, they would bring him gifts, but now that his younger siblings were here, the visitors only brought gifts for them.

It seemed like everyone only liked his younger siblings and not him anymore.

Even his mother and father spent more time with his younger siblings.

His mother hadn’t told him a story in a long time!

Even his great-grandfather and grandmother didn’t fuss over him as much as before. Whenever they saw him, they used to ask about his well-being, but now, all they talked about were his younger siblings.

All of a sudden, Daozi didn’t want to see his younger siblings anymore. He handed the fish tank to the maid behind him and sulkily left the room.

After stepping out of the room, Daozi stood under the eaves without moving, but after waiting for a while, seeing that his mother didn’t send someone to call him back, the little boy felt dejected.

Indeed, his mother didn’t like him anymore now that she had his younger siblings. Humph, he didn’t like his mother either.

Daozi was extremely upset in his heart, but remembering how much his mother used to love him, he decided to give her a chance. Pouting, he turned back to look at the room.

If only his mother would come out smiling and call him back inside, he would be magnanimous and forgive her.

Unfortunately, at that moment Daomang started crying, and Daohua was slowly pacing the room with her daughter in her arms. Since Daozi had just entered the room and stood silently for a while, she didn’t hear anything.

The maids inside did see Daozi, but as it was customary for the Little Prince to enter the main house without announcement, when they saw him come in and leave again, they thought he had something else to do and said nothing.

Thus, Daozi was heartbroken and left the main courtyard in a huff.

He decided then that he would no longer care for his mother!

Only after Daohua had soothed her daughter did she notice the fish tank Daozi had brought. She instantly asked with a smile, "Did Daozi come by?"

The maid replied, "The Little Prince came and then left."

Daohua laughed it off: "That kid always has his own ideas and is surely off playing somewhere else now."
