There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 158

[Chapter 158, Entering Uncle’s House for the First Time]

“Haha, I won!”

While Xiao Yeyang was in a daze, Daohua quickly moved his chess piece, put her own on it, and then clapped her hands happily and shouted.

Xiao Yeyang came back to his senses, glanced at the chessboard, and was immediately speechless.

This guy doesn’t even know how to cheat, he can tell at a glance that his chess pieces have been moved.

Fortunately, he thought she was smart just now, well, he thought too much.

Seeing Xiao Yeyang staring at her, Daohua felt guilty for a while, and hurriedly moved the chess pieces out of order like stealing the bell.

This time, even Yan Wenxiu, who was on the side, was ashamed to look at it.

Isn’t this place without three hundred taels of silver?

“I won!”

Xiao Yeyang stared at Daohua who was stalking his neck and insisted on saying that he had won without saying a word, shook his head, and replied perfunctorily: “You won.”

Daohua was a little displeased: ” Why do I feel that what you said is so insincere?”

Xiao Yeyang: “Then what do you think I have to do to be sincere? Get lucky?”

Dao Hua’s eyes lit up immediately.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yeyang snorted angrily: “Speaking of winning prizes, you have lost to me so many times, and I have never seen you give me one. Do you still want mine?”

Daohua smiled mischievously and muttered He said: “You asked yourself.”

At this moment, Defu walked in with a smile: “Master, dinner is ready.”

Xiao Yeyang stood up, saw Daohua sitting still, and said with a smile : “Do you really want a lottery? Then think about it carefully, what do you want, and tell me when you think about it. Now, let’s go to eat.”

Daohua shook her head: “Forget it, I’m not that thick-skinned yet. , if you win once, you will get a lottery, then I will pay you back more, no more.” After finishing speaking, he strode out of the study.

Xiao Yeyang glanced at Yan Wenxiu, shook his head with a smile, “Your sister thinks about it, she does it.” Saying that, before Yan Wenxiu could say anything, he went after someone.

Yan Wenxiu, who was left behind, could only silently glance at Defu, and then helplessly followed.

After dinner, everyone gathered in the living room to talk.

Li Xingnian traveled all over the world, knowledgeable and fluent, telling stories one after another, which Daohua and the others listened to with gusto.

It wasn’t until Haishi (9 o’clock in the evening) that everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

In the side hall.

The two nephews had already undressed and were about to go to bed, but Li Xingnian was still in a state of excitement and couldn’t sleep.

“Uncle, go to bed soon, we have to hurry tomorrow.” Yan Wenkai muttered, then pulled the quilt up and fell asleep soundly.

Yan Wenxiu also looked helplessly at his uncle whose eyes were still shining brightly.

Uncle was in great spirits, he was tired after walking around the palace for a long time, but uncle was still in good spirits.

Seeing Yan Wenxiu sitting and waiting for him, Li Xingnian immediately said: “Go to sleep, uncle sit down for a while, so that you can take a look at this palace.” Maybe this is the only time in his life that he lives in a palace, so he must take a good look.

Hearing this, Yan Wenxiu couldn’t say much, because he was too sleepy, so he didn’t continue to accompany him.

Daohua lived in another side hall. On this day, she was also extremely tired, and fell asleep soon after lying on the bed.

The next morning, Daohua woke up to the sound of Wang Maner talking with others.

“Man’er, who was it just now?”

Dao Hua put on her clothes and saw Wang Man’er walking in with a big red feather satin cloak.

“It’s Father Defu. He sent a cloak, which he said was for the girl to keep out the cold.” As he said, Wang Man’er handed the cloak to Daohua.

Daohua touched the smooth satin surface of the cloak and the fluffy white fur trim, frowned and said, “Why did   Xiao Yeyang send something again, I feel embarrassed to take it.” There is a gift in return, but there is always a feeling of taking advantage.

Wang Man’er thought that Daohua was dissatisfied with her collection of things, so she hurriedly explained: “I just shirked it, but Father-in-Law insisted on giving it to me, so I didn’t hold him back.”

Daohua thought for a while, and the clothes were not expensive. , The good family will also give it to each other, so I don’t worry about this problem: “Wash up.”

When going out, Daohua looked at the cloak, thought for a while, and put it on.

With Xiao Yeyang’s temperament, if she didn’t wear it, she might be unhappy.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the main hall, Xiao Yeyang saw that Daohua was wearing the cloak he had given him, and the corners of his mouth immediately curled up.

Yan Wenkai’s eyes lit up: “Big sister, why haven’t you seen this cloak worn by you, it’s so beautiful.” Daohua

smiled: “I think it looks pretty too, and it’s warm.”

Hearing what Daohua said, Xiao Yeyang was even happier up.

Yan Wenxiu glanced at it, but said nothing.

He knew that the elder sister had given the young prince a medicinal bath prescription.

The value of that prescription should not be low, Dong Yuanxuan had asked him from the side.

It’s okay for the little prince to send back a cloak.

After breakfast, everyone talked with Xiao Yeyang for a while before getting up to leave.

“Xiao Yeyang, the academy will be on holiday in the future, if you are bored, come to my house to play with my three older brothers!”

Daohua said to Xiao Yeyang when leaving.

Xiao Yeyang nodded, and asked Defu to send a few people out of the palace.

When Defu came back, Xiao Yeyang was looking at another food box brought by Daohua, which was full of pastries with various animal figures.

“There are so many cakes, Ms. Yan is preparing to eat them until the end of the first month.”

Xiao Yeyang smiled: “That guy Daohua treats me like a pig.” As he said, he picked up a pig’s head jujube cake and stuffed it in one bite. mouth.

He doesn’t like sweets, and he doesn’t like all kinds of pastries, but he likes the pastries made by Daohua.

It’s hard for that guy to send over a box full of food. Before he saw that the maid next to her couldn’t lift it.

“Master went to study!”

He signaled Defu to put away the pastries, and Xiao Yeyang went to the study.

“Little uncle, how long will it take for us to reach the provincial capital?”

Yan Wenkai couldn’t sit still on the boat, and asked from time to time.

Li Xingnian looked at the sky and said, “We’ll arrive at noon, don’t walk around and be careful about getting seasick.”

Daohua smiled and said, “Don’t worry, uncle, the fourth brother is in good health, so he won’t get seasick .”

Li Xingnian glanced at his nephew, who was as strong as a calf, and stopped talking.

Looking at Daohua standing on the deck and looking at the scenery on the river with great interest, Li Xingnian sat beside Yan Wenxiu: “The cloak on Daohua seems to be given by the little prince, so it doesn’t matter if you just take it?”

Yan Wenxiu shook his head. : “It doesn’t matter, didn’t the eldest sister also give something when she came here?”

Hearing this, the corner of Li Xingnian’s mouth twitched.

Just two food boxes from my niece?

Well, the communication between children should not be too utilitarian like adults, and care too much about value gains and losses.

Yan Wenxiu thought for a while, and said to Li Xingnian: “Uncle, it is best not to speak humanely about our stay in the palace this time. Because we are close to the little prince, we have already attracted the attention of many people. If we want to let others know that we are staying overnight Passing through the palace, I’m afraid something will happen.”

Li Xingnian nodded, patted Yan Wenxiu on the shoulder, and said with relief: “In a blink of an eye, you are so old, and now you are more and more thoughtful about things. Don’t worry, uncle knows how to measure.

” , Daohua and the others finally arrived at the Li Mansion.

“Why did you get here?”

Li Xingnian had just led the three of them into the gate, when the two aunts and a few cousins who received the news came out to welcome them.

“Wenxiu, Wenkai, Daohua, I have seen two aunts.”

Yan Wenxiu hurriedly saluted with his siblings.

The eldest aunt Fan immediately helped him up, then took Daohua’s hand, and took a closer look: “This is Yiyi, oh, why is she so handsome, second aunt, come and have a look at this My child, isn’t she more handsome than my little sister back then?”

A gentle-looking woman stepped forward and looked at Daohua with a smile: “It’s true, my little sister’s daughter compares herself to herself.”

The two aunts of the Li family, one is bright and cheerful, and the other is gentle and quiet, both of them are well maintained, and they seem to be in their early thirties.

“Okay, okay, are there any of you who are aunts? It seems that they are embarrassing to talk about other children.”

Li Xingnian stopped him with a smile: “If you have anything to say, go back to the room and talk.”

Fan immediately laughed and said: ” Look at me, I am so happy that I don’t know the south, the south, the north, the north.” As he spoke, he took Daohua’s hand and motioned for his son to call Brother Wenxiu into the house.

Daohua couldn’t stand her enthusiastic aunt, so she could only do what she said, and she couldn’t be well-behaved.

Later, the two cousins of the Li family got together and secretly looked at the three of them.

Li Zixin from the eldest room said in a low voice: “Didn’t mother often say that although my uncle is an official, but his family is poor and life is very difficult? But look at the clothes on cousin Yiyi, which one is not a first-class good thing?” ?”

Li Zixuan from the second room nodded: “Yes, I have seen the cloak worn by the Dong family girl from far away. It is said that it is a tribute feather satin. And the beaded flower on her head is very beautiful. I’ve never seen these in shops in Fucheng.”

Li Zixin took another look at Daohua who was walking in front: “Mother said before that cousin Yiyi grew up in the countryside, so she might be compared to the concubine at home. , now look at it, it’s just nonsense.”
