The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!-Chapter 956 - 811, Xiao Moreng

"Why did you also bring back rice and flour?"

After lunch, Madam Li took Daohua back to the main courtyard for a private talk and was surprised to see bags of black rice, red rice, purple rice, and other fine grains in the room.

Daohua smiled and said, "I’ve specifically set aside several fields at the Four Seasons Manor to grow these varieties of rice. Since it’s inconvenient for me to come back now, I thought of bringing more for you to have."

"These are for you and father, and I have separately prepared something for grandmother."

"Mother, these varieties are not easy to grow, and the yield isn’t high either. I don’t have much at home, so please make sure you keep them for yourself and don’t give them away to others."

"Right, and there are these herbs, which I have put a lot of effort into growing. Don’t give them away either. If you want herbs to give to others, either buy them or let me know, and I will have Qin Xiaoliu deliver them to you."

The rice and herbs that were delivered today were all produced by the space, so Daohua took particular care instructing Madam Li.

Madam Li grabbed a handful of black rice to smell it and, taking in the fragrance, she also admired the high quality of the herbs, laughing as she said, "Your mother is not foolish, rest assured, I will keep these for family use."

Daohua then nodded with a smile.

Madam Li had Ping Tong and the others store the items properly and asked about the injury on Daohua’s arm before saying, "Next time you come back, there’s no need to bring such valuable gifts for the family."

"You have seen princes and nobles, high officials at the Prince Residence, and your social obligations must be expensive. You need to keep some good items on hand so you won’t be looked down upon."

Daohua laughed, "This time, some of the gifts were prepared by Father Prince."

Madam Li showed surprise, "The Prince is pleased with you, right?"

After thinking for a moment, Daohua smiled and said, "The Prince... well, he’s not quite the scoundrel I had imagined before. In fact, he’s quite easy to please."

"I’ve been deliberately flattering and pleasing him, and since he also wants to improve his relationship with Xiao Yeyang, he’s been quite good to me. Even when Princess Consort Ma wanted to use her status to suppress me, he helped me out several times."

Madam Li was relieved. Then, after asking about the Guo Family, Daohua told her in detail which members of the Guo Family had sent gifts.

That evening, after dinner and meeting Yan Wenxiu, Yan Wentao, and Yan Wenkai who had returned from the Yue Family, Xiao Yeyang took Daohua back to the Prince Residence.

Now that her granddaughter (daughter) was reported to be doing well in the Prince Residence, Old Lady Yan and Madam Li did not feel as reluctant as they had during the third-day visit after the wedding.

...

On the third day of the new year, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang began packing their things, preparing to stay at the Four Seasons Manor with Gu Jian for a while.

"Xiao Yeyang, ask your father if he wants to come with us?"

Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, seeing the encouraging look on her face, and thinking of how his uncle’s wrinkles seemed to relax whenever he saw his father, put down his teacup and stood up to go to Pingxi Hall.

Huai En was unmistakably surprised when he saw Xiao Yeyang.

The Little Prince rarely took the initiative to seek out his master!

"Master, the Little Prince is here!"

Prince Ping also seemed surprised to see Xiao Yeyang and appeared somewhat uneasy, but remembering his role as a father, he stiffened his face and asked, "What are you here for?"

Xiao Yeyang: "... Yiyi and I are going to the Four Seasons Manor to accompany the old master. Are you coming, Father Prince?"

Prince Ping frowned, "Today? But it’s still the New Year!"

Xiao Yeyang: "Because it’s the New Year, we should go even more. The old master must be feeling lonely by himself, right?"

Prince Ping looked at Xiao Yeyang and to be honest, his legitimate son was finally initiating a conversation. He didn’t want to refuse, but going to the Four Seasons Manor meant no playing around.

What a dilemma!

Seeing that the Prince Ping had not responded, Xiao Yeyang simply said, "If you’re not going, forget it." With that, he turned to leave.

Prince Ping hurriedly spoke up, "Who said I wasn’t going?" He huffed, "I was just thinking about what gifts to bring for the old master. You couldn’t wait, so impatient. How will you manage affairs in the future like this?"

This time, seeing that Prince Ping agreed to accompany Gu Jian, Xiao Yeyang did not talk back, "Then please hurry and pack your things, Father Prince. I will go prepare the carriage."

After Xiao Yeyang left the room, Huai En entered and then saw Prince Ping humming a tune, looking very happy.

"Master, what has made you so happy?"

Prince Ping glanced at Huai En and felt secretly delighted. Today he had finally had the chance to teach his son a lesson, and the key was that his son had not talked back.

"Hurry up and pack my things. Later, I’m going to Four Seasons Manor with Yeyang and Yan girl to pay a New Year’s visit to the old master."

Pingxi Hall.

Watching Xiao Yeyang return with a relaxed expression, Daohua smiled, "Did your father agree?"

Xiao Yeyang ’hmmed’ and the corners of his mouth slightly lifted.

Daohua didn’t point it out, instead she changed the subject, "I heard that last night, Xiao Yeyang returned alone, and Luo Qiong seems to have spent the night at the Duke Residence."

Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, "Why are you even concerned about them?"

Daohua corrected, "It’s not concern; I call it knowing the enemy as well as oneself. After all, we live in the same residence and are opponents, naturally, I need to understand more about the other party so as not to be caught unprepared if anything happens."

Just then, Wang Manman suddenly walked in, "Miss, Young Master, just now Huai En came to say that the Fourth Prince and his consort, along with their little grandson, have arrived. The Prince is asking for you to come over to meet the guests."

Xiao Yeyang looked towards Daohua, "They must have come to express their gratitude."

Without delay, the pair instructed Wang Manman to load the prepared items onto the carriage and then headed to Pingxi Hall.

In the hall, Prince Ping, along with the Princess Consort of the Ma Family, Xiao Yeyang, were all present, chatting with the Fourth Prince and his consort about family matters.

Upon seeing Daohua and Xiao Yeyang approach, the Fourth Prince and his consort both stood up.

After the greetings, the Fourth Prince’s consort looked at Daohua with gratitude, "On New Year’s Eve, I was truly indebted to you, younger sister." As she spoke, she glanced at the maid beside her.

The maid immediately stepped forward with a sandalwood box about a foot long and opened the lid.

Instantly, a pair of white and green jade cabbages, exquisitely carved to lifelike detail, caught everyone’s gaze.

The Fourth Prince’s Consort said, "Great kindness does not require thanks, this is a small token of our appreciation from my husband and myself. Please, you must accept it, younger sister."

Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang, "This is too much..."

Everyone assumed Daohua would decline, but she gestured for Wang Manman to accept it, then smiled at the Fourth Prince’s consort, "You are much too kind."

Prince Ping, upon seeing this, couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

The Ma Family mother and son looked on with disdain. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

The Fourth Prince’s consort was also taken aback, having expected Daohua to be at least politely hesitant. She hadn’t anticipated such swift acceptance of the gift.

The Fourth Prince glanced at Daohua, then at Xiao Yeyang, who was smiling at Daohua, and his eyes flickered.

This couple did not want to get too involved with them, it seemed.

Indeed, Daohua didn’t want to get entangled in the princes’ struggle. By accepting the gift, the matter of her saving the Fourth Prince’s son could be considered closed.

"Auntie, Happy New Year!"

Before anyone knew it, Xiao Moreng, who was held in a wet nurse’s arms, had stood on the ground and came to Daohua’s side, tugging at her dress while tenderly offering New Year’s greetings.

"..."

Daohua looked down with a forced smile at the little one by her leg. Children offering New Year’s greetings meant she should give a lucky money red envelope.

But, she hadn’t brought any red packets with her.

Daohua looked down at what she was wearing, and finally took the scent pouch from her waist. She had Xiao Yeyang help her open the pouch and gave a jadeite baby Buddha from inside to Xiao Moreng.

The small, cute, and adorably expressionless baby Buddha instantly captivated Xiao Moreng, who clutched it in his hand and refused to let go.

Seeing him like this, Daohua couldn’t help but laugh.

The Fourth Prince’s consort approached, glanced at the tiny Buddha in her son’s hand that was no bigger than an adult’s thumb, and said with a smile, "This jade Buddha is carved so adorably. Where did you buy it, younger sister?"

Daohua responded with a smile, "My master carved it. When I was visiting last time, I thought it looked nice, so I unabashedly took it for myself."

The Fourth Prince’s consort said to her son, "Moreng, don’t you want to thank your auntie?"

Xiao Moreng looked up at Daohua with his bright, clear eyes, smiling sweetly with his unique baby voice, "Thank you, auntie."

Daohua’s heart melted at the sight, and she squatted down to be eye level with the little tot, "Moreng, why are you so adorable?"

The cheerful little tot returned a comment that surprised everyone, "Auntie, why are you so pretty? Moreng likes you so much!"

Hearing this, even Xiao Yeyang laughed out loud, bending down to pat Xiao Moreng’s little head, "You little guy, you certainly have good taste!"

Daohua looked at the Fourth Prince’s consort, "With Moreng being so sweet, he’ll surely be quite the charmer when he grows up."

Thanks to the little tot Moreng, Daohua, Xiao Yeyang, and the Fourth Prince and his consort became much more familiar with each other.
