There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 157

[Chapter 157, Two Lonely People]

drank chicken soup, ate refreshments, and fed themselves full. Daohua didn’t want to move anymore, and curled up in front of the stove to warm up leisurely.

It’s still early in the day, and there’s still time before dinner.

Daohua can sit still, but others can’t.

“It’s boring to stay in the house. Let’s go out for a stroll. I just saw that there seems to be a martial arts training ground in the palace. Let’s go there and have a look?”

Yan Wenkai said loudly.

Seeing that Daohua was not interested at all, Xiao Yeyang waved his hands directly: “You have to go by yourself.”

“Don’t, it’s so boring for me to go alone.” Saying that, Yan Wenkai hurriedly looked at his elder brother, hoping that he could accompany him there. .

It’s a pity that Yan Wenxiu is just a frail scholar, and he is not interested in the fact of wielding knives and guns. He shrugged at Yan Wenkai, expressing that he didn’t want to go either.

Yan Wenkai had no choice but to turn his gaze to his little uncle.

Li Xingnian smiled: “I’ll go with you.” It just so happened that he also wanted to see what the Royal Martial Arts Field looked like.

Yan Wenkai was immediately happy, and pulled Li Xingnian out of the house.

As soon as the two left, the room fell silent.

It was rare for Xiao Yeyang to take the initiative to ask: “I have a lot of books in my study, do you want to read them?”

Daohua became interested: “Is there a story book?”

Yan Wenxiu immediately said: “Didn’t mother say that you won’t let me read it?” Have you read the storybook?”

Daohua pouted, then retracted her standing body.

Although she doesn’t like being controlled too much, she still wants to give Brother Cheap some face outside.

Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang was a little amused, and looked at Yan Wenxiu: “My words here are all about customs and travel notes, so it’s okay to read.”

Yan Wenxiu didn’t say much.

Xiao Yeyang winked at Daohua, signaling her to follow quickly.

Daohua immediately stood up again, and raised her eyebrows back, as if to say ‘you are really on the road’.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yeyang felt happy, and led the two of them to the study with a smile.

“Wow, you have so many books here!”

Entering the study, Daohua was shocked by the rows of bookshelves all over the room.

You know, this is ancient times, and there were no printing presses in ancient times, and books were very precious. It took a lot of energy to collect such a large room of books.

Of course, then again, it is not surprising that there are so many books in the Royal Palace.

Daohua looked at the rows of bookshelves, then turned to Xiao Yeyang and asked: “So many books, how many have you read?”

Xiao Yeyang pointed to the first few rows: “The art of war, and the geography of mountains and rivers I’ve finished reading all the books.”

Daohua was slightly startled, she didn’t expect Xiao Yeyang to read so many books.

Next to him, Yan Wenxiu was also amazed.

The strength of a family can be seen from the collection of books at home. Like their Yan family, the accumulated books are not enough for the two bookshelves here.

He is studying hard, and his knowledge reserve is not as good as that of our children.

After that, Daohua went to find her favorite script.

Yan Wenxiu and Xiao Yeyang picked up a policy theory and discussed it.

At this time, Yan Wenxiu realized that the young prince who mainly focuses on martial arts has such a wide range of knowledge and learning, and many arguments and insights are very novel and unique.

This time, Yan Wenxiu became more aware of his lack of knowledge.

In the past, he always thought that he was knowledgeable and knowledgeable, but after getting acquainted with the young prince, Dong Yuanxuan, and Zhou Chengye, he discovered that there are people beyond people and others beyond.

The reason why he was outstanding before was because the environment he was in was only a very small circle. After stepping out of the circle, he realized that the world is so vast and there are so many talented people.

After discussing with Yan Wenxiu for a while, Xiao Yeyang found that Daohua was tinkering with his chessboard, so he immediately put down the strategy and let Yan Wenxiu look at it himself, while he walked towards Daohua.

“Why, do you know how to play chess?”

When Dao Hua was checking whether the chess pieces were made of jade, Xiao Yeyang’s joking voice came from above his head.

Daohua raised her head, and saw Xiao Yeyang looking at her with a half-smile, with a look of ‘why pretend to understand if you don’t understand’.

“Who said I won’t?” The tone was a little lacking.

Xiao Yeyang raised his eyebrows: “Really? Then shall we have two sets?”

“Come as soon as you come, who is afraid of anyone!” Daohua sat down directly.

Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang also sat down.

Seeing Xiao Yeyang’s confident look, Daohua felt a little uncertain. She knew how to play backgammon, and it was a way to pass the time for entertainment. After thinking about it, “I will decide the rules of chess.”

Xiao Yeyang smiled. Laughing, he made a very gentlemanly gesture of invitation.

Soon, Daohua explained the rules of backgammon.

Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: “So simple? I thought you were going to say some complicated rules!”

Daohua: “.” She suddenly had a premonition that she would be abused badly.

And it is true.

Yan Wenxiu sat aside with a book, looking at the two of them from time to time.

Then, he saw that his younger sister’s face was getting darker and darker, while the little prince’s face was showing more and more smiles, that smug expression was a bit dazzling to him.

“Don’t play, don’t play anymore, it’s so boring!”

After being killed more than a dozen times in a row, and each game died soon after the start, looking at her record, Daohua began to doubt whether her IQ was a negative up.

Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua’s smelly face, and touched his nose embarrassingly.

It seems to have played!

Should he let her go?

Xiao Yeyang thought for a while and said: “You play chess without rules and do whatever you want. It’s no wonder you can win. Come on, continue, I’ll teach you how to play.”

Daohua saw that Xiao Yeyang was not so proud, so she turned her eyes Throw to the board again.

“Don’t take this step, you have to go like this.”

“Stop, when you play chess, you have to look at three moves with one move, or even farther. If you play here, I can block you with two more stones. See? ?”

Hearing Xiao Yeyang’s nagging, Daohua thought it was quite interesting, the two of them almost filled the chessboard with one piece.

“Are you going to the provincial capital tomorrow?”

After Daohua was able to do it by herself, Xiao Yeyang started to talk about other topics.

Daohua nodded: “Yeah.”

Xiao Yeyang: “When will you come back?”

Daohua dropped a son: “After the Lantern Festival.”

Seeing Xiao Yeyang suddenly fell silent, he thought he thought that he was going to live alone Yuan Xiao , Dao Hua thought for a while and said: “In my hometown, whenever I felt lonely, I would make myself busy. When I was busy, I would not think about those messy things.”

Hearing this, Xiao Ye Yang’s eyes flickered, and he raised his eyes to look at Daohua, seeing that her attention was all on the chessboard, it seemed that what she just said was just casual talk.

This guy… has learned how to play charades with him.

However, was she trying to explain herself just now?

Xiao Yeyang dropped a son and blocked Daohua’s way. Seeing her pouting, he smiled and said, “Aren’t you still accompanied by your grandmother in your hometown? Do you still feel lonely?”

Daohua didn’t look up, Staring at the chessboard closely: “Of course.”

Traveling from modern times to ancient times, how can others experience the spiritual loneliness?

The grandmother was very kind to her, and the third uncle and the third aunt were also kind to her, but the huge generation gap that spanned time and space was still clearly lying between them.

Most of her thoughts and ideas are not compatible with this era.

In order to live well and integrate into this era, she can hide herself, but human thoughts cannot be wiped out. After a long time, she will be surrounded by spiritual loneliness.

Repressed for a long time, there will be resistance.

When she was in her hometown, because the people she came into contact with were relatively simple and kind, and the interests involved were not many, so she lived a fairly comfortable life.

But when she got to her parents, with more and more people around her, all kinds of interests were constantly involved, and some opinions were contrary to what she thought, and she didn’t want to be assimilated, so she couldn’t help but want to resist.

Thus, a series of things happened in which she contradicted her biological father and disrespected her elders.

On the opposite side, Xiao Yeyang was startled suddenly, he seemed to really see loneliness and loneliness in Daohua’s eyes.

Daohua’s mood faded quickly: “Everyone has emotions and desires, who can never be frustrated. At this time, you can’t let yourself be trapped in this bad mood all the time. You have to learn to release it.”

” Take me for example, whenever I am unhappy, I like to run in the fields, look at the crops in the field, look at the scenery of nature, and my mood will suddenly brighten up.”

Xiao Yeyang seems to be thinking , was silent for a while, and said: “I grew up so big, I have never seen a lady who likes to run into the fields as much as you do.”

Daohua finally seized an opportunity and blocked Xiao Yeyang’s way , dropped a son, and said: “What’s wrong with this? People eat whole grains, no matter how noble your status is, you can’t do without the land under your feet.”

Xiao Yeyang smiled: “There is nothing wrong, It ’s just a little different from ordinary ladies.”

Daohua asked back: “I am me, the only one in the world, why should I be like others?”

Xiao Yeyang was stunned, forgetting to drop the chess pieces in his hand.

Daohua’s chatterbox opened, and she had held some words in her heart for a long time, so she couldn’t help but continued: “I know that in this world, there are many things that I can’t control, so I just grab what I can. I live.”

“I like to tend the fields, so I will buy more farms, grow food, flowers and herbs, and when I can be self-sufficient, then I don’t have to go to see some meaningless things just because I am different from others. His face changed.”

Hearing Dao Hua’s words, Xiao Yeyang’s heart was shaken.

He always knew that the guy in front of him was a little different from others, and he had his own ideas and opinions in doing things, but he didn’t expect that she could say such a thing.

When you are self-sufficient, you don’t have to look at other faces!

Xiao Yeyang chewed these words repeatedly in his heart, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Yes, so what if the father and king are not close, what if the mother abandons her?

As long as he is strong enough, why should he care about all this.

On the side, Yan Wenxiu was also shocked by Daohua’s words, and didn’t even notice that the book in his hand was turned upside down.

He found that he really didn’t know this sister very well.
