The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 342

Chapter 342: Chapter 320, Returning to the Mansion_1

The Yan Family’s carriage entered Ningmen Prefecture City at a steady pace, and after a short while, it stopped in front of the rear gate of the Governor’s Office.

“Finally back home!”

Madam Li greeted Old Lady Yan at the door with her two sisters-in-law from the Sun and Wu Families and the three Yan Yihuan sisters.

As soon as Old Lady Yan stepped off the carriage, her three daughters-in-law came forward to pay their respects, and then were supported by Madam Li and Madam Sun into the gate, one on each side.

Daohua exchanged pleasantries with her three sisters with a smile, then quickly followed them inside.

The three Yan Yihuan sisters lagged a step behind, looking enviously at Daohua ahead of them.

Yan Yile pouted and said, “Big sister is so lucky, she gets to go out and have fun whenever she wants, unlike us who can only stay at home.”

As soon as she spoke, Yan Yihuan glared at her, “Fourth sister, watch your mouth and don’t talk nonsense. Big sister went to oversee the spring plowing, not to play around.”

Yan Yile, feeling indignant, was about to retort when she saw Yan Yishuang burst into laughter, “Third sister, what are you laughing at?”

Yan Yishuang glanced at Yan Yihuan and said, “I’m laughing because second sister is really starting to act like a big sister, unlike before when she would not speak if it didn’t concern her, and shake her head pretending ignorance. But now she even knows to discipline her sister. Just be careful not to be too heavy-handed and end up drawing a tiger only to make it look like a dog.”

After speaking, seeing Yan Yihuan’s face change, she walked away with a suppressed smile and graceful steps.

“What does she mean by that?”

Yan Yile, furious, glared at the back of Yan Yishuang, looking ready to challenge her views.

Yan Yihuan held her sister back with a calm tone, “Let her be sarcastic, why bother with her?”

With their eldest uncle’s promotion to Magistrate, seizing the joyous occasion, their fifth brother and third sister went to plead for mercy on behalf of Aunt Lin, but unfortunately, the two of them, usually so pampered, were rebuffed, and Aunt Lin is still confined to this day.

Over the years, as her knowledge and experience increased, she was well aware that her third sister was but a paper tiger. Without their uncle’s favor, she was truly nothing in the Yan Family’s backyard.

Old Lady Yan, supported by her three daughters-in-law, returned to Songhe Courtyard. After chatting and laughing with everyone for a while, she went to freshen up and rest.

Daohua also returned to her courtyard. After washing and tidying up, she went to the main compound.

“You girl, have you gone wild during this time?” Madam Li said with a laugh as she pulled her daughter to sit beside her.

Daohua leaned affectionately on Madam Li’s shoulder, “Not at all. During this time, I’ve been helping Xiao Yeyang build a road for my master and Granny Gu.”

The very day she became a disciple of Gu Jian, Old Lady Yan had Daohua write to inform Madam Li and Yan Zhigao about it.

Latter on, during Yan Zhigao’s days off, the couple even made a special trip to Taohua Mountain to pay their respects to Gu Jian and Granny Gu, bringing many gifts to show their respect.

It was only when she saw her parents on Taohua Mountain that Daohua realized how solemn and important taking a master in ancient times was.

Madam Li, thinking of the situation on Taohua Mountain, nodded, “Indeed, a road needed to be built.” Looking sideways at Daohua, she asked, “Why would the Little Prince personally get involved in road construction?”

Daohua explained, “Because my master gave him a book of swordsmanship, he wanted to repay the kindness by offering to build the road.”

Madam Li smiled, “The Little Prince is quite commendable. Grateful and willing to repay kindness, and not like other members of the Imperial Family, who are overbearing and act superior to others.”
