The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 418

Chapter 418: Chapter 394: Time Flies_1

As soon as Daohua entered the Chuihua Gate, Yan Wenqi and the other four found it hard to take their eyes off her.

They saw Daohua, dressed in a sky-blue and green plum embroidered cross-collared vest, a white embroidered waistband, and an off-white round-neck soft long skirt, walking slowly towards them.

With a smile on her face like blossoming flowers, and graceful gestures, she exuded the elegance and demeanor of a distinguished family.

“I heard there were guests as soon as I came back, let me see, who are the guests? I wonder if they still remember me?” _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

Before she got close to the Water Pavilion, Daohua called out to Yan Wenqi and his companions with a smile.

Among the five, Yan Wenyi was most familiar with Daohua. As soon as she finished speaking, he smiled and stepped forward: “Of course we remember you, but I wonder if you still remember us?”

Daohua quickly replied: “I could forget anyone but you, Brother Wenyi.” Saying this, she approached Yan Wenyi, surveyed him all around, and laughed: “Brother Wenyi, you’ve done well, becoming more handsome as the years pass.”

Yan Wenyi scratched the back of his head, feeling embarrassed: “I can’t compare to Sister Yiyi, you’ve grown even more graceful. I hardly dare recognize you.”

Hearing this, Daohua burst into laughter: “Since when did you become so eloquent, Brother Wenyi?”

Yan Wenyi grinned widely, noticing that Daohua still joked with him just like when they were young, without any sense of estrangement. This comforted him greatly.

If Daohua had been as prim and proper, speaking and behaving formally like Yan Yihuan and the other two, he would have felt extremely awkward.

“Brother Wenge, Brother Wenqi.”

Daohua greeted Yan Wenge and Yan Wenqi with a smile as they approached and then turned her gaze to Yan Yunxi and Yan Yunyan, who were walking at the back: “Yunxi, Yunyan.”

As everyone got closer, she asked: “It’s been a long time, how is everyone doing?”

Yan Wenqi replied with a smile: “All is well, how have you been these years?”

Daohua: “I’ve been fine.” She then walked toward the silent Yan Yunxi and Yan Yunyan, “Why aren’t you speaking? Do you not recognize me?”

Yan Yunyan immediately greeted with a smile: “Yiyi.”

Yan Yunxi followed suit: “Yiyi.” Her expression was slightly unnatural; their relationship back at home wasn’t very good.

Daohua, smiling, took their hands: “You’ve finally come. You must stay for a while this time. Grandmother has been missing the people from home for a long time. We have a lot to talk about.”

“Ahem!”

Suddenly, a cough came from behind. Daohua turned around and saw her eldest brother, immediately beaming with a smile: “Big brother.” Saying this, she placed her hands on her waist and gave Yan Wenxiu a formal curtsey: “Congratulations on your success in the imperial examinations.”

Yan Wenxiu waved off the compliment with a laugh: “That’s an overstatement. It was just the provincial exam. By the way, did you congratulate Brother Wenge and Brother Wenqi?”

Daohua paused, “Huh?”

Yan Wenxiu smiled and said: “This provincial exam, besides me, Brother Wenge and Brother Wenqi also passed.”

Daohua’s face lit up with joy: “Really?!” Turning to face Yan Wenge and Yan Wenqi, she said, “I am remiss for not knowing such joyous news and truly deserve to be blamed. I hope you, brothers, won’t be angry with me.” After speaking, she curtseyed to the two of them.

Yan Wenqi hurriedly said: “Sister Yiyi, please don’t say that, you just came back.”

Daohua stood up, smiling: “Thank you for not holding it against me.” Then she tilted her head towards Yan Wenyi, “Brother Wenyi, when will you pass the exam?”

Yan Wenyi scratched his head, smiling sheepishly: “Sister Yiyi, please don’t make fun of me.”

Yan Wenge commented with a smile: “He, being sixteen this year, still can’t sit still. If not for grandfather controlling him, who knows how wild he’d be.”

Upon hearing this, Daohua immediately asked: “Is Uncle Zhishi doing well?”

Yan Wenge nodded with a smile: “Grandfather is still quite vigorous, it’s just that his eyesight is failing. Reading and such, we have to do it for him.”

Yan Wenxiu: “We all shouldn’t stand here, let’s go talk in Grandmother’s room.”

So, everyone headed towards the Yan family matriarch’s courtyard.
