There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 387
[Chapter 387, Zhongju]
Yanfu.
Daohua, Yan Yihuan, Yan Yishuang, and Yan Yile had just finished their morning classes and were about to go back to their respective yards. On the way, they met Pingtong and others who were delivering refreshments and fruits to Songheyuan.
Looking at the fresh fruit in the maid’s hand, Daohua smiled and asked: “Sister Pingtong, is there a guest?”
Pingtong signaled the other little maids to continue delivering things, and she stopped: “It’s not a guest, it’s a guest.” The third master and the fourth master are back, and the little prince and Mr. Dong are also here.” Daohua paused
, “I just went home during the Mid-Autumn Festival a few days ago, why are you back?”
Ping Tong laughed and said, “Fourth Master Said that they came back this time to ask the uncle when he will come back, so as not to miss the time to congratulate the uncle.”
Daohua laughed a little: “They all have confidence in the elder brother, but at least the elder brother has to wait until the results of the provincial examination are announced. I will come back, it should be September by then.”
Ping Tong nodded: “Madam also said so, but the old lady is still very happy when the third master and the others are back. Anyway, Ningmen Pass is not too far from Fucheng. If you ride a fast horse, it doesn’t take much time to go back and forth.”
“The old lady said that she used to study in the academy, which was far away, so she couldn’t go home often, but now she’s close to home, and the training in the military camp is more difficult, and the food is also expensive. It’s not as good as the one at home, I just want the third master and the others to go home for dinner more often in the future.”
Then, he paused, and looked at Yan Yihuan and the others.
“Madam is also in the old lady’s yard, girls and servants going there together?”
Yan Yihuan and the three nodded with a smile.
Daohua was silent for a moment: “You guys go first, I still have something to do here, and I will go there later.”
Ping Tong did not doubt that he was there, and said with a smile: “Then you have to hurry up, big girl, after lunch, three Lord, they have to go back to the barracks.”
Daohua nodded, “You go.” Saying that, she led Wang Maner towards her yard.
After returning to the yard, Daohua didn’t do anything else. She just sat in front of the window and watered the lotus with a kettle.
A few days have passed, and the lotus has withered a little, and it is no longer as beautiful as before.
When Wang Man’er came in with tea, she saw her girl was pulling out the wilted petals on the lotus, she walked over and asked softly, “Miss, aren’t you going to see the fourth master and the little prince?”
Daohua reached out to take the teacup , bowed his head and drank his tea without words.
At this moment, she didn’t know how to face Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang undoubtedly had a good impression of her, but she didn’t know whether she should maintain this good impression or stop it.
Emotionally, although she did not reject Xiao Yeyang’s closeness, she also felt that her feelings for Xiao Yeyang did not seem to rise to the level of love, but she was still reluctant to stop it like this.
Rationally, she clearly knows that this relationship is full of too much uncertainty and instability. She is afraid that she will not be able to bear it, and she is also afraid that this relationship will not last long.
“Hey!”
Daohua was a little upset, put down the teacup in her hand, stared blankly at the gate of the courtyard with her cheeks stuck.
Seeing this, Wang Man’er didn’t have much to say, and retreated silently.
Songheyuan.
Xiao Yeyang saw that Yan Yihuan and the three had come, but Daohua was nowhere to be seen. He frowned immediately, couldn’t help touching Yan Wenkai with his crutches, and asked in a low voice, “Why didn’t your eldest sister come?”
Yan Wenkai He was talking to Su Hongxin about what to eat at noon, when he heard this, he was taken aback, turned his head and looked around at the people in the room, and seeing that Daohua was indeed not there, he immediately asked Old Madam Yan: “Grandmother, where is eldest sister? ”
Old lady Yan looked at Mrs. Li for no apparent reason.
Mrs. Li has been at the old lady’s place all the time, and she didn’t know, but Ping Tong just went out again, so she could only smile and say, “I guess I got caught by something.”
Yan Yishuang smiled and answered: “When we came over, the eldest sister said that she has something to do.”
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang was a little disappointed, but thinking that they would have lunch later, they would always see Daohua, A smile appeared on his face again.
However, he was still disappointed.
Daohua didn’t show up until I left after lunch.
The elders of Yan’s family were all there, so he couldn’t ask Yan Wenkai too much, so he could only leave on horseback full of regret.
Fortunately, when they were leaving, Mrs. Yan asked them to come over for dinner every now and then, so he had no choice but to point to the rice flowers when he came next time.
In the following days, every three or four days, Yan Wenkai would bring Xiao Yeyang and the others to Yan’s house for dinner.
Compared to Yan Wenkai and the others who were happy to improve the food, Xiao Yeyang was full of depression and doubts.
He went to Yan’s house three times in a row, but he didn’t see Daohua once. At this moment, he vaguely sensed that Daohua was avoiding him on purpose.
But why?
He didn’t make her angry during this time?
Well, why ignore him?
Xiao Yeyang was both puzzled and anxious, and wanted to ask Daohua why, but she stayed in the backyard all the time, and he never had a chance to ask.
Not only him, but Mrs. Li also noticed her daughter’s strange behavior, but she agreed with it.
Now that my daughter is grown up, it’s really not appropriate to see outside men anymore.
In a blink of an eye, it’s September. On the second day of September, Yan Zhiqiang came to the old lady’s yard with a letter on his face full of joy, and said loudly before entering the house
: “Mother, I won Wenxiu, and I came second in the provincial examination.”
The old lady and Mrs. Li stood up excitedly, and Sun and Wu who sat down were also happy.
Both of them knew that the better the big house, the better the second and third rooms would follow.
The news reached the ears of the four Daohua who were in class within a short while.
After hearing this, Daohua smiled, but she didn’t have much reaction. No matter it’s Father Cheap, Mr. Xiao, or Mrs. Zhou, they all said that her elder brother is well-educated, and he is also a hard-working person, so she treats him very well. I am very confident that I can pass the exam.
Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile were also beaming. Although they were not siblings, the Yan family did not have a separate family, and the elder brother won the examination, which brought honor to their faces.
Among the four, only Yan Yishuang smiled a bit reluctantly. She was not happy for Yan Wenxiu, but, yesterday, the Lin family also received a letter, and my uncle still failed this time.
God knows how much she hopes that her little uncle can win the exam, so that she, Fifth Brother, and Auntie can have a better life in Yan’s house.
It’s a pity.
Mrs. Shen knew that there was a happy event at home, and the girls didn’t want to study, so he gave them a holiday: “Okay, let’s go congratulate the elders in the family.”
After coming out of the classroom, Daohua thought, Yan Wenkai and others She will definitely come back after receiving the news. This time, he came to congratulate her. She couldn’t come out anymore. After thinking about it, she walked towards the main courtyard.
“Mother, I want to live in Peach Blossom Village for a few days. My elder brother won the exam, so I should tell my master to make them happy too.”
Mrs. Li glanced at her daughter, pondered for a moment, and nodded in agreement: “Alright, Your master and old mother-in-law are both old, so you should visit them more.”
The next day, Daohua took a boat to Taohua Village.
“Man’er, go over there and continue, don’t let that falcon get hurt.”
When Daohua arrived at Peach Blossom Mountain, she picked up the slingshot and pointed it at the falcon hovering over Peach Blossom Temple. The bullet of the slingshot was a little finger. Drugs of size.
Wang Man’er looked at Daohua, hesitated to speak, and ran into the yard dawdly.
‘boom! ‘
Because the practice of the whip is fast, precise and ruthless, Daohua’s hands are very steady, and the accuracy is not bad, and she hit the falcon with one stroke.
Gu Jian heard the movement and walked out of the room, he was a little surprised to see the little apprentice stunned by the eyeliner his nephew put on here.
