The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 680

Chapter 680: Chapter 611, The Hound Shows Its Talent for the First Time_1

On May 29th, the Yan Family gathered together for dinner in the old lady’s courtyard.

During the meal, Madam Sun said, "I heard that Mrs. Guo wants to celebrate the Little Prince’s birthday this year, but June 1st is almost upon us, and she still hasn’t sent out the invitations. Could it be that Mrs. Guo doesn’t plan to invite outsiders and intends to just have a meal with her family and the Little Prince, and that’s it?"

Yan Wenkai immediately replied, "Second aunt, you might as well stop waiting for the Guo Family’s invitation. As soon as Mrs. Guo suggested holding a birthday banquet for Yeyang, he flatly refused."

Madam Sun looked puzzled, "Why is that? Before Mrs. Guo came, the Governor had already hosted birthday banquets for the Little Prince. Now that the lady of the house has arrived, why wouldn’t they hold one?"

Madam Li said indifferently, "What else could it be, it’s to avoid scandal. If Mrs. Guo hadn’t brought Miss Guo along, there would be nothing wrong with an aunt celebrating her nephew’s birthday. But with Miss Guo present, people with ulterior motives might misinterpret the situation, making it hard to explain."

Yan Wenkai nodded, "Exactly. When the Jiang Family came to Zhongzhou, Yeyang went to help for a few days and some people with agendas started spreading rumors about childhood sweethearts. To this day, Yeyang is still so furious about it, claiming the Jiang Family tarnished his reputation."

Madam Li laughed, "I didn’t realize the Little Prince was someone who cared so much about his reputation."

Yan Wenkai: "There are things Yeyang doesn’t care about, but he really dislikes being linked with young ladies. He says that as soon as there’s any entanglement with another girl, he’ll end up with no good end."

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Yan grew interested, "How would he end up with no good end?"

Yan Wenkai shrugged, "He didn’t say."

Yan Wentao glanced at Daohua, who was happily gnawing at a rib—the culprit who would give Yeyang good fruit to eat was right here.

Seeing Yan Wentao looking at her, Daohua smiled and picked a chicken drumstick for him.

Looking at the drumstick in his bowl, Yan Wentao withdrew his gaze, effectively sparing Daohua.

Madam Li: "Since Mrs. Guo isn’t hosting the banquet, on June 1st we shall carry on as usual."

Madam Sun laughed, "Speaking of which, Mrs. Guo has been in Ningmen Prefecture for almost two months, and yet we haven’t seen the Little Prince pay her a visit, have we?"

Yan Wenkai replied, "I think Yeyang doesn’t like Mrs. Guo that much. Once, when Mrs. Guo sent someone to invite Yeyang to visit, he declined, using the excuse of being busy."

Madam Li, looking surprised, said, "That’s news to me. The Little Prince has a good relationship with the Governor."

Yan Wenkai laughed, "Having a good relationship with the uncle doesn’t necessarily mean he will get along with the aunt."

Daohua quietly listened to everyone talking while enjoying her meal with good cheer.

Xiao Yeyang was aware of the need to avoid controversy with Miss Guo, which was good!

It looked like this year, the pig’s head on his birthday cake could be made a bit larger.

...

On June 1st, early in the morning, Daohua boarded the carriage to Taohua Village with the birthday cake she had prepared the night before.

The carriage sped towards the dock as soon as it left the city gates.

However, halfway through the journey, the hound Xiaoqi suddenly leaped from the carriage and dashed towards the woods alongside the official road.

Bi Shi hurriedly informed Daohua before chasing after Dog Xiaoqi.

Daohua signaled for the carriage to stop and sat inside waiting for Bi Shi.

After a quarter of an hour, Bi Shi and Dog Xiaoqi returned.

"Miss, look at this!"

Bi Shi handed a bundle wrapped in cloth to Daohua, "Xiaoqi dug it out from a pile of dirt."

After receiving the bundle, Daohua signaled Bi Shi to get on the carriage, and only after the carriage started moving again did she unwrap the bundle.

Inside the bundle was a crumpled piece of paper and a piece of sheepskin.
