The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140: Chapter 126, Pocket Watch_1

“What is this?”

After boarding their own carriage, Daohua pointed at the jewelry box in Madam Li’s arms and asked.

Madam Li looked at her daughter in surprise, “You don’t know?”

Daohua shook her head.

Madam Li placed the jewelry box on Daohua’s lap, “This was sent by the Little Prince through Young Master Zhou, saying it’s a gift for you.”

Daohua’s face lit up with joy, “Xiao Yeyang didn’t go back on his word!” she said, then opened the box eagerly, and immediately, a whole set of pearl hair ornaments caught her eye.

“So beautiful!” Yan Yihuan couldn’t help but exclaim.

Even Madam Li, who had seen many fine things, was dazzled by the sight.

The set of pearl hair ornaments was exquisitely delicate, just perfect for young girls around their teens to wear. To find this, De Fu had spent quite some time and effort. _{freёwebnoѵel.com}

Daohua picked up a butterfly hairpin made of pearls the size of rice grains and marveled, “The craftsmanship is so exquisite.” The butterfly seemed to come to life, ready to take flight with its wings spread.

Madam Li smiled and said, “From now on, you’ll have a piece of jewelry to wear when attending various gatherings.” Her daughter didn’t have many pieces of jewelry because there were many expenses at home, and she hadn’t been able to prepare much for her.

Daohua nodded and, catching the envious glance from Yan Yihuan out of the corner of her eye, she smiled and passed the jewelry box to her, “Second sister, choose one.”

Since the hair ornaments were designed for young girls, there were many styles to choose from. Daohua herself had four butterfly hairpins, and that wasn’t even counting the various floral ones.

Yan Yihuan kept shaking her hands, “These are for you from the Little Prince, how could I take them?”

Daohua, “It’s okay, there are plenty.”

Seeing that Yan Yihuan was still reluctant to choose, Daohua thought for a moment, then directly inserted the butterfly hairpin she was holding into her sister’s hair.

“There are exactly four butterflies, one for each of the four sisters in our family.”

Madam Li sat by without interfering in Daohua’s distribution. She was pleased to see her daughter’s generosity and even more satisfied with her final decision.

This time, she hadn’t brought Yishuang and Yile with her, and no matter how justified her reasons, there would still be those at home who were discontented. Now that her daughter had obtained an entire set of hair ornaments, had she not shared any with her three younger sisters, she’d likely be criticized for hoarding.

“Thank you, big sister.”

Yan Yihuan touched the butterfly hairpin on her head, her face beaming with joy.

“No need to be polite!”

Daohua closed the jewelry box and handed it to Madam Li to keep for her.

Madam Li took the box and then handed a purse to Daohua.

Daohua looked puzzled, “Mother, why are you giving me a purse?”

Madam Li, “Right before we set sail, your third brother came by and said it was for you. I haven’t opened it to see what’s inside.”

Daohua was intrigued, “A gift from third brother?”

Upon opening the purse, a golden pocket watch was revealed.

“Ah!”

If seeing the pearl hair ornaments made Daohua happy, then seeing the pocket watch could be called a surprise.

She had just been complaining about not being able to tell the time easily when outside, and she had not expected to receive a pocket watch so soon.

Yan Yihuan had never seen a pocket watch before and didn’t know what it was, but Madam Li’s expression changed instantly.

She hadn’t seen such a thing before, but she had heard about it. It was said to be a precious object presented by foreigners, only available to royal relatives favored by the Emperor.

This wasn’t something Wentao could afford to give!

Without a doubt, it must have been a gift from the Little Prince.

Daohua didn’t think too much about it, delightfully placing the pocket watch around her neck. She then opened the case to check the time and said with a smile to Madam Li, “Mother, it’s the third quarter of the hour of the Dog (7:45 PM).”

Madam Li’s cheeks stiffened a bit, “Would it be okay to accept such a thing?”
