The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1205

Chapter 1205: Chapter 1027, Hu City

"I never realized it before, but since mother left, I have discovered that her presence really helped me a lot."

After a year, Daohua felt utterly exhausted.

If her mother-in-law were here, not to mention other things, just watching over the three little ones was already a huge help, not to mention that her mother-in-law often gave her valuable advice.

Xiao Yeyang personally wrung a hot towel for Daohua, allowing her to wipe her face: "You’ve worked hard during this time."

As the lady of the Prince Residence, she not only had to maintain relationships with Beijing but also entertain the ladies from Xiliang, and take care of her uncle and three children. This task was no easier than his outside work, both mentally and physically exhausting.

His ability to focus on his endeavors outside was largely thanks to Yiyi managing the household affairs and maintaining good relationships with various parties.

Daohua quickly washed up and went to Nuan Pavilion to check on the children.

Daozi and the twins were lying properly on the kang, each covered with their own little blankets, with Daozi telling them the tale of ’Havoc in Heaven.’

The twins, not knowing if they could understand, stared intently at their brother with wide eyes, occasionally making chirping sounds.

Daohua didn’t enter but watched from the doorway for a while, instructed the nanny and maid to take good care of them, then returned to the inner room and saw Xiao Yeyang flipping through a book at the bedside, she couldn’t help but ask: "What have you been reading these days?"

Xiao Yeyang lifted the warmed quilt, inviting Daohua to get in, then showed her the book.

"Records of the Western Regions!"

Daohua flipped through it, a book detailing the conditions of the Western Regions, "Why are you reading this?"

Xiao Yeyang lay down, arms under his head: "Xiliao has been relatively calm in recent years. The tributes they send every year are always on time. Xiliang, bordering Xiliao, inevitably has some dealings between its people. Do you remember Bamubian Town?"

Daohua nodded.

Xiao Yeyang: "Since Xiliao and Daxia stopped fighting, more and more people have been doing business in and around Bamubian Town. I asked Ma Teng about it; the annual transaction volume is not a small number."

"I was thinking, since such trade cannot be prohibited, why not bring it into the open? This would not only facilitate trade but also allow the Imperial Court to collect taxes."

Daohua: "So, you’re thinking of opening Hu City?"

Seeing that Daohua guessed his intention immediately, Xiao Yeyang pulled her hand and kissed it: "The one who knows me, Yan Yiyi, indeed!"

Daohua gave him a sidelong glance, withdrew her hand, placed the book under the pillow, and also got into the quilt.

As soon as she lay down, Xiao Yeyang wrapped her in his arms.

Xiao Yeyang was a natural heater, and every winter, Daohua liked to use him for warmth, happily leaning in his embrace to listen to him speak.

"Xiliang is located on the frontier, and coupled with its geographical conditions, even though high-yield grain varieties have been fully promoted, the people can still barely maintain subsistence."

"To enrich the lives of the people, it’s not only necessary for the Government Office to take action, but it’s also crucial to attract more foreign merchants to conduct business here."

"Only when goods circulate can the people profit, when the people are prosperous, the Government Office can collect more taxes, and thus better build Xiliang."

Daohua watched Xiao Yeyang with a smiling face: "If you think it’s good, then go ahead and do it, I support you anyway."

Seeing Daohua’s eyes sparkling with admiration, Xiao Yeyang was moved, leaned down to kiss her cheek, and continued talking:
