The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1220

Chapter 1220: Chapter 1040: Can’t Shake It Off

Seeing Yan Yile again, observing her forcibly straightened back and her proudly tilted chin, as she tried hard to present herself as not to be underestimated, Daohua felt slightly complex emotions.

"Second aunt, fourth sister, has your journey here been pleasant?"

Sun Family quickly nodded with laughter. She had been somewhat arrogant, relying on her seniority, but her expression became restrained upon seeing Daohua.

"Good, everything is fine with us."

It has been several years since they last met, and Daohua’s bearing had increasingly taken on that of a Princess Consort; even with her friendly smile, she exuded an aura of superiority that made people dare not look directly at her.

Daohua smiled and asked everyone to sit, then had the maids serve the steaming hot milk tea: "It’s almost October, and the weather gets colder day by day. Everyone, have some milk tea first."

As she spoke, she looked at Sun Family with a smile, inquiring about matters at home.

"The old lady is still quite robust. Every spring and autumn, she insists on supervising the spring plowing and the autumn harvest at the estate, and nobody can dissuade her."

"Big brother and sister-in-law are also doing well. Big brother is a bit busier with his official duties, and sister-in-law enjoys her time playing with the grandchildren, leading a very comfortable life."

"Your third uncle and aunt have moved out, but their new residence is just across the street. Every few days, they would join us for a small gathering. The family visits each other quite often."

"Your second brother has also settled down in the Hanlin Academy. Last year your sister-in-law gave birth to another niece, so now with both a son and a daughter, your second uncle and I are at ease."

At this point, Sun Family glanced at her younger daughter beside her. Thinking of the letter the son had written to his elder daughter, asking them not to trouble Yan Wenxiu and Daohua too much, she hesitated and eventually did not mention her younger daughter’s matters.

Daohua smiled and said, "Since everything is fine at home, then I’m relieved."

Yan Yihuan then spoke, "Big sister, I’ve been in Lailiang Capital for some days now. There’s a lot to handle at home, so I’m planning to take mother and Yile back tomorrow."

Daohua showed surprise, as she had assumed that the second aunt, coming to Xiliang to check on marriage prospects for Yan Yile, would stay in Liangdu. Had the sun risen from the west this time?

Han Xinran laughed and said, "Second brother-in-law needs second sister both inside and outside the home; naturally, she’s in a hurry to get back."

Daohua nodded and said no more, only insisting they stay for lunch.

In the meantime, taking advantage of the absence of Sun Family and her daughters, Daohua pulled Han Xinran aside to ask about the situation. Han Xinran related the events of picking them up the previous day.

"Yile hasn’t changed at all. She’s just like when she was at home - no, her temperament has become even more extreme."

Thinking of Yan Yile who, apart from greeting, had remained silent during their meeting, Daohua sighed, "It seems the divorce has had quite an impact on Yile."

Han Xinran nodded and then looked slightly uncomfortable, "The reason second sister left in such a hurry was probably because she overheard you and your big brother complaining."

Daohua consoled, "Second sister is still quite discerning at heart. It’s good that she heard; there has to be boundaries among relatives. We can’t let them develop the habit of relying on the main branch for everything."

Han Xinran fully agreed.

After the meal, they chatted casually for a while longer, and Daohua personally saw Han Xinran and the Sun Family mother and daughters off from the prefecture.

...

In the evening, after Xiao Yeyang finished his official duties, he saw Daohua playing hide and seek with the twins with a relaxed face and immediately asked with a smile, "So, your second aunt’s visit this time didn’t trouble you?"

Listening to Xiao Yeyang’s teasing tone, Daohua gave him a sidelong glance, "From the sound of it, you almost seem to wish that their matters would bother me."

Xiao Yeyang laughed, "I’m just surprised. Your family’s second branch is quite good at causing trouble. Every time they come over, doesn’t it end up with you cleaning up after them?" As he spoke, he picked up his daughter, lifting her into the air, which made the little girl laugh heartily.

Daohua: "This time I was also somewhat surprised." She said with a smile, "Second aunt and Yile were taken care of by second sister, and both big sister-in-law and I were relieved."

Xiao Yeyang put down his daughter and picked up his son, "Don’t be too happy too soon. I think in the end, they’ll probably still turn to you."
