The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 320

Chapter 320: Chapter 300, Not Owing _1

“Grandmother, Mother, I’m back!”

Before seeing the person, their voice was heard.

Hearing this voice full of cheer and vibrancy, Wu Family’s old Madam Yan and Madam Li’s faces instantly revealed smiles as they both looked towards the doorway together.

Sun Family’s Mrs., Wu Family’s Mrs., and the three sisters Yan Yihuan also looked over.

The curtain parted, and Daohua, wearing a blue cloak, walked in with a beaming smile as Yan Wenxiu’s three brothers followed behind her.

Madam Li quickly stood up, “You all, how come you didn’t send a word before coming back?”

Daohua smiled and went forward, taking Madam Li’s arm, “Look at what Mother’s saying, do I and my brothers need to announce our arrival when we return to our own home?”

Madam Li tapped Daohua’s forehead, “Is that what Mother means? I mean to say, it would have been good to send someone to the pier to pick you up in advance.”

Daohua laughed, “Isn’t Big Brother here with us? Why bother the family to make an extra trip?”

Madam Li glanced at Daohua funnily and then pushed her towards the old Madam Yan, “Aren’t you going to greet your grandmother? The old lady has been talking about you these days.”

Letting go of Madam Li, Daohua approached the old Madam Yan, who was sitting on the step, gave her a formal bow, and then followed suit with Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Wu before sitting directly next to the old lady, “Grandmother, Daohua has missed you.”

Old Madam Yan’s mouth couldn’t help but curl upwards, “Miss me? I think you’ve gone wild with fun in the governor’s office!”

Daohua, wrapping her arm around the old lady’s, leaned on her shoulder and cooed, “Not at all. Every day I missed Grandmother. But what about you, Grandmother? Did you miss me?”

Old Madam Yan grunted, “The old woman has been busy, when would she have time to miss a girl like you?”

Hearing this, Daohua sighed, “Ah, I knew it. Grandmother is already getting tired of me.”

Old Madam Yan gave her naughty granddaughter a sideways glance and hit her lightly on the forehead, “Yes, I’m tired of you!”

Below them, the three Yan Yihuan sisters saw how their eldest sister had the grandmother smiling from ear to ear upon her return and couldn’t help but lower their gaze.

During the time their big sister was away, they had come to accompany the grandmother every day. Although the grandmother was pleasant with them, she wasn’t nearly as close to them as she was to their big sister.

At that time, the three brothers Yan Wenxiu stepped forward to pay their respects.

Old Madam Yan cheerfully asked them to sit down and began to inquire about their time in the governor’s office.

After some laughter, Mrs. Sun interjected, “You’ve come back at the right time; we were just discussing finding a match for Wenxiu.”

Daohua looked surprised, glancing at her visibly uncomfortable eldest brother, and then at Madam Li, “Mother, you’re arranging a marriage for Big Brother?”

Madam Li smiled, “It’s just an intention for now.” She said, looking proudly and contentedly at her eldest son, handsome as a jade tree.

Sending her eldest son to Beijing with his father had been the right decision. After going out to meet guests with the second master from the Zhou Family just once, he caught the eye of Earl Zhaode’s Han, Earl Zhaode Residence.

Old Madam Yan smiled at her eldest grandson, “In a blink, Wenxiu is already eighteen — it’s indeed time to discuss his marriage.”

Daohua quickly asked, “Whose daughter?”

Madam Li replied, “As I said, it’s just an idea so far, nothing’s settled yet.”

Daohua saw that Madam Li seemed reluctant to say more and didn’t press further, but her gaze fell on her eldest brother.

The younger siblings did the same, snickering as they looked at Yan Wenxiu.

Though Yan Wenxiu felt he had thick skin, seeing his brothers and sisters staring at him made him a bit uncomfortable, and he felt compelled to stand up and say, “Grandmother, Mother, Second Aunt, Third Aunt, I’m going to tidy up the courtyard.”

Seeing her son embarrassed, Madam Li kindly let him leave, and Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao also followed him out.

Old Madam Yan looked toward Daohua, “Alright, you go tidy up your own courtyard as well. Come back later to talk.”

Subsequently, Madam Li took Daohua to the main courtyard.

…

The Governor’s Office’s back yard was more than twice as large as the Prefectural Governor’s Office’s back yard — it took a full fifteen minutes to walk from the old lady’s Songhe Courtyard to the main courtyard.

“How can this back yard be so large? Isn’t that excessive?” said Daohua, shocked.

Madam Li laughed, “It’s not excessive. Ningmen Prefecture covers a large area, and accordingly, the Governor’s Office is naturally a bit larger than others.”

Daohua nodded, “Then, Mother, where will I be staying?”

Ping Tong answered with a laugh, “Naturally, the eldest young miss will stay in the most exquisite courtyard in the back yard.”

The most magnificent main courtyard was where the Madam and the master lived; the most comfortable courtyard was granted to the old lady.

Since there were plenty of courtyards, each young master and miss had their own independent one. However, the eldest son and eldest young miss’s were a bit larger and in better locations.

The only ones sharing a courtyard in the house were the concubines from the Liu and Lin families.

Soon, the mother and daughter arrived at the main courtyard.
