The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 65

Chapter 65: Chapter 56, Lock the Door_2

She really hadn’t expected her father to hit her older sister.

Yan Yile and Yan Yihuan were also terrified, huddling to one side.

Seeing his youngest daughter cry, Yan Zhigao immediately felt heartache, “Madam, let’s talk this over calmly, look how frightened Yishuang is.”

Madam Yan was so angry she laughed, “I merely asked her a question and you think she’s frightened, yet when you slapped Daohua, did you ever consider the fear you might cause her?”

Yan Zhigao looked somewhat sheepish, “Daohua wouldn’t be scared at all. Madam, you didn’t see it; at the time, she even dared to talk back to me. Saying things like she didn’t want to be the Yan Family’s eldest daughter anymore, can you believe it? Aren’t these utterly unfilial words?”

Madam Yan was momentarily stunned, “Daohua really said that?”

Yan Zhigao nodded, “Of course, Madam, Daohua is too stubborn. It won’t do to leave her unmanaged. You shouldn’t always spoil her either. Look at her now; does she resemble an elder sister at all?”

Madam Yan gazed at Yan Zhigao indifferently, just looking, without a word, until Yan Zhigao felt compelled to lower his head.

Madam Yan didn’t want to bother with the oldest son anymore and turned towards Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile, “Yihuan, Yile, you two were also in the pavilion at the time. Did you see your older sister throw the flowerpot at Miss Zhu?”

Yan Yihuan trembled a little when Madam Yan addressed them. She was about to say something when Yan Yile preempted her.

“Grandmother, we did indeed see our older sister throw the flowerpot at Miss

Zhu.”

As soon as she spoke, Yan Yile felt Madam Yan’s gaze turn sharp as a blade, shooting straight at her, scaring her into quickly lowering her head.

Yan Zhigao, for some reason, felt a sense of relief in his heart when he heard

Yan Yile confirm Daohua’s act of throwing the flowerpot, and just as he was about to suggest that since the matter was clear, they should let the three young ladies stand up, he looked up to see his mother’s eyes full of cold disdain.

Madam Yan watched the four kneeling people for a long while in silence, “Very well, you’re all behaving splendidly!” Having said that, she closed her eyes as if unwilling to see the four any longer.

Yan Zhigao looked at Madam Yan, wanting to say something but at a loss for words.

And so, they remained kneeling.

After a quarter of an hour, Nanny Sun stepped forward, “Sir, Madam wishes to rest now. You may go.”

Only then did Yan Zhigao stand with the three young ladies, and he said to Nanny Sun, “Take good care of Madam.” With that, they left the scene.

As soon as the four had left, Madam Yan opened her eyes. Hearing her eldest son exit, she had Auntie Lin stand up and then dismissed the other people in the courtyard.

“Once a heart turns away, no outsider can bring it back!

After a moment of silence, Madam Yan sighed again, “Daohua and Zhigao, this father and daughter, must have been sworn enemies in a past life!

The second household.

Yan Zhiyuan and Madam Sun, along with Yan Yile, Yan Yihuan, and Yan Wenjie, returned to their own courtyard. As soon as they entered the room, Madam Sun immediately looked at Yihuan and Yile and asked, “Was it really Daohua who threw the flowerpot at Miss Zhu?”

Under their mother’s glaring, Yan Yile shrank back, and Yan Yihuan also appeared hesitant.

At this, the astute Yan Zhiyuan and Madam Sun knew the answer without being told.

Actually, Yan Zhiyuan had sensed something was amiss back in the pavilion. His eldest niece had too pure a look in her eyes, not to mention Master Lin standing beside them.

Madam Sun, feeling like they were hopeless, tapped Yan Yile’s forehead, “You’re really going to be the death of me. Haven’t I always told you to keep out of the conflicts between the main house and Shuangxin Courtyard?

Yan Yile pouted, “I don’t like older sister. Ever since she came, auntie wouldn’t even give us a few rolls of fabric.”

Madam Sun laughed bitterly out of sheer frustration, “Shortsighted as you are, now that you’ve truly offended the main house, don’t even think about getting any more fabric.”

Seeing how upset his mother was, Yan Wenjie was indifferent, “Mother, look at how agitated you are over this. What’s the big deal? It was Yishuang who started this. Even if auntie wants to settle scores, she won’t be able to trace it back to us.”

“Moreover, with uncle now protecting Shuangxin Courtyard to this extent, it’s uncertain if auntie will actually settle things come autumn. You really shouldn’t worry so much.”
