The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 333

Chapter 333: Chapter 311, Road Construction_1

Xiao Yeyang, after helping Daohua with the dishes, finally noticed the stupefied Defu standing at the entrance of the courtyard and immediately walked over, “Did you buy the gifts I asked you to?”

Defu came to his senses and rubbed his stiff cheeks.

Stay calm, stay calm, it’s just tidying up some dishes, right?

In front of Miss Yan, the master had done things that did not fit his status not only once or twice. Last time, on Miss Yan’s birthday, he even personally made longevity noodles, nothing surprising there.

Although he thought this way, Defu’s expression was still a bit unnatural.

“I’m speaking to you, what are you daydreaming for?” _{frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓}

Seeing Defu’s face changing colors continuously without responding to him, Xiao Yeyang couldn’t help frowning.

Seeing his master showing impatience, Defu quickly gathered his wits and replied hurriedly: “Master, Shahe County is really too poor, I searched the entire county and couldn’t find any decent gifts, so I could only bring back some fresh food.”

Xiao Yeyang glanced at the fresh food Defu had brought back and quickly averted his gaze, “These won’t do.” After thinking for a moment, he turned and went to the kitchen.

Defu hurriedly followed with the items.

In the kitchen, Wang Manman was washing dishes, while Daohua was arranging the cupboard.

Defu was also slightly surprised to see Daohua tidying up herself.

But with his own master setting the example first, he quickly accepted it.

Seeing Xiao Yeyang entering, Daohua asked, “Is there something you need?”

Xiao Yeyang: “That book of swordsmanship Master Gu gave me, I had my uncle look it over, and he said that this set of swordsmanship could be considered a unique mastery, even some martial arts aristocratic families that have passed down their skills for generations couldn’t produce such a martial arts manual.”

Daohua was a bit surprised: “That powerful?”

Xiao Yeyang nodded, a hint of pride on his face: “After practicing that set of swordsmanship, my martial arts improved very quickly. Even the trusted aides by my uncle’s side are no match for me now.”

Daohua thought for a bit: “If it has been that much of a help to you, then you really should express your gratitude properly.”

Xiao Yeyang showed agreement: “That’s what I think too.” He then glanced over to the main room and lowered his voice, “Master Gu’s… temperament is a bit eccentric, isn’t it? I’m afraid that if the gift isn’t to his liking, he would outright refuse it.”

Daohua considering her own master’s temperament, nodded: “That’s indeed possible.”

Xiao Yeyang tapped Daohua’s shoulder lightly: “He’s your master, isn’t he? Tell me, what should I give him?”

This really stumped Daohua.

What would her adoptive master like? She didn’t know either.

“What my master cares about the most is Grandma Gu. If you give gifts to him, it would be better to give them to Grandma Gu. As long as you win over Grandma Gu’s heart, my master will definitely be pleased.”

Xiao Yeyang quickly asked, “Then what does Grandma Gu like?”

Daohua propped her chin in thought: “Grandma Gu isn’t in the best of health, and she has never really shown any particular preferences…” Suddenly, Daohua had an idea, clapped her hands together, and smiled, “I know what to give now, guaranteed you’ll win over my master’s heart.”

Xiao Yeyang eagerly asked, “What is it? Tell me quickly.”

Daohua: “You should build a path up the mountain for my master and Grandma Gu!”

Xiao Yeyang was startled: “Build a path?”

Daohua nodded: “You’ve seen, there is no proper path on Taohua Mountain, and climbing up and down is very troublesome. My master and Grandma Gu are both old and living on the mountain, it’s really inconvenient.”

After listening, Xiao Yeyang also felt this was a good idea, as compared to sending over gold and jewelry, it would indeed be better to build the elderly couple a path.

“Then let’s do as you say. Taohua Mountain isn’t very high nor steep, so it will be convenient to construct the path. It probably won’t take more than a few days to complete. I will have Defu look for road workers right away.”

Daohua nodded with a beaming smile: “You got off easy. Originally, this was something I planned to offer as a gesture of filial piety to my master and Grandma Gu myself.”

Xiao Yeyang laughed: “Who among us is keeping score? Whether you give it or I give it, isn’t it all the same?”

As soon as these words were spoken, both Defu and Wang Manman’s faces revealed an odd expression.
