The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 978

Chapter 978: Chapter 825, Wan Family’s Old Residence

The Emperor had directly stripped Xiao Yeyang of his position, and thus the Empress Dowager couldn’t forcefully nominate a match for him anymore.

As a consequence, the prospect of the fifth daughter from the Earl Zhaode Residence and the fourth daughter from the Earl Yongqing Residence entering the Prince Residence also dissipated without further development.

For the Empress Dowager, this was of no concern; in her view, it was a blessing for those families to have caught her eye and to be used by her. As for the future marital prospects of the bastard daughters from both families, that was no longer her concern.

Earl Zhaode Residence.

Earl Zhaode looked at his weeping bastard daughter kneeling on the floor with great irritation and dissatisfaction in his eyes as he turned to Madam Han, "I told you from the beginning not to agree to the Jiang Family’s proposal, but you took my words as if they were wind passing by your ears."

Madam Han defended herself, "As soon as the Jiang Family came, they said it was the Empress Dowager’s will. How could I refuse? Dare I refuse?"

Earl Zhaode glared at Madam Han, "I see you never actually wanted to refuse, did you?"

Madam Han replied, "Why do you think I did this? Isn’t it for the Earl Residence? Although you are still an earl, the title won’t pass down to our son. Naturally, I have to plan for him."

The Jiang Family said that as long as a bastard daughter was married off, they would arrange a new position for her son. How could she not agree?

Earl Zhaode felt weary, "When you agreed, did you ever think about Han Xinran? How will she establish herself in the Yan Family from now on?"

Madam Han fell silent for a moment, then said with a stiff neck, "After all, Han Xinran has already given birth to the legitimate grandson of the Yan Family. With a son by her side, what can the Yan Family do to her? Besides, Han Xinran married into the family as a junior, can the Yan Family afford to mistreat her?"

Earl Zhaode snorted, "You planned well, but unfortunately, now you’ve come up empty-handed."

Madam Han glanced at the bastard daughter on the floor. She didn’t care about what the bastard daughter’s future days would be like, but she cared about her son’s future, "My lord, how about I go to Han Xinran and let her talk to the Countess of Shengping, see if she can take in the fifth daughter?"

Earl Zhaode stood up abruptly, angrily pointing at Madam Han, "If you wish to become enemies with the Yan Family and no longer want Han Xinran as a daughter, then go ahead and try!"

"Previously, it could have been said that it was the coercion of the Empress Dowager and the Jiang Family, but if you go to Han Xinran now, the Yan Family could directly throw you out."

Madam Han knew her idea was somewhat naïve but she was genuinely worried about her son’s future, "It was just a casual remark, why are you getting so agitated, my lord?"

Earl Zhaode grunted, "Find a family for the fifth daughter to marry into quickly," and with that, he left, flinging his sleeves.

A similar scenario unfolded in the Earl Yongqing Residence.

However, Madam Fang was much more efficient than Madam Han, directly informing her bastard daughter that she would find her a proper family in a different province to join as the main wife, and swiftly calmed her down.

"What is all this about? The Empress Dowager wants to punish Xiao Yeyang, yet our family has been dragged into it."

Earl Yongqing said with furrowed brows, "The Empress Dowager is the sovereign and we are her subjects; we can only obey."

Madam Li took a deep breath of relief upon learning that the proposed matches fell through. When she heard from her maid that Han Xinran had come with her grandson to pay respects, she waved her hand and refused to see them.

She admitted to herself that she was taking out her anger on her daughter-in-law, but she just couldn’t control herself.

After arriving in Beijing, her daughter-in-law’s family had been nothing but trouble for her household.

Her daughter-in-law was a good person, but having such a family background, her daughter-in-law’s positive qualities were reduced by half.

...

Prince Residence.

Xiao Yeyang’s dismissal made Princess Consort Ma, Xiao Yechen, and Luo Qiong very happy.

Xiao Yeyang was so arrogant on a regular basis, wasn’t it because he had the position of the Commandant of the Jinling Guard? Now stripped of his authority, they wanted to see how he could still be so high and mighty.

After lunch, Luo Qiong went to the Hundred Flowers Garden accompanied by her maids and old woman servants.

Daohua had timed it well and was waiting early. Upon seeing Luo Qiong’s figure, she immediately looked towards Ping Ji’s wife, and after Ping Ji’s wife turned and left, Daohua walked over to Luo Qiong with a smile.
