The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!

Chapter 401: Chapter 377, Revelation_1

Xiao Yeyang shook the wine bottle in his hand, only to discover there was just a little left, his brows subconsciously furrowed, and then his gaze fell upon the burnt skewers on the grill, a hint of confusion passing through his eyes.

What on earth happened to that guy?

Inside Jiao Pavilion, Yan Wenkai and Su Hongxin had started a fire, engrossed in roasting a whole sheep.

Seeing Daohua approaching, Yan Wenkai hastily cut off a piece of greasy lamb leg meat and handed it over: “Big Sister, quickly taste Fourth Brother’s cooking skills.”

Daohua hesitated, “Is this roasted well?”

Yan Wenkai: “It’s roasted well, definitely roasted well, I learned this craft from the old masters who cook in the military camp. To learn this, I spent several casks of grape wine, the flavor is absolutely authentic.”

Daohua took it and took a light bite, then nodded: “It’s not bad, ye.” Saying this, she went to sit down to one side.

Seeing his little sister nibbling away, Yan Wenkai grinned and, noticing Su Shiyu watching him, immediately cut another piece of lamb leg meat and walked towards her with a smile: “Miss Su, you taste some too.”

Su Shiyu smiled as she took it, noticing that Yan Wenkai was staring straight at her with a look that urged her to eat. She couldn’t help but take a bite.

Yan Wenkai immediately asked, “How is it?”

Su Shiyu smiled and nodded: “Delicious.”

Yan Wenkai: “If you like it, I’ll cook it for you again next time!”

Heart jolted, Su Shiyu pursed her lips, just about to say there was no need when she looked up to find Yan Wenkai had already walked away: “…”

After sitting down, Daohua continued eating the lamb leg meat, while reopening a bottle of osmanthus wine to drink, finding it hard to be interested in the jovial conversations around her, but for the sake of not dampening everyone’s spirits, she still forced a smile on her face.

After entering Jiao Pavilion, Dong Yuanyao had planned to sit next to Daohua, but midway Su Shiyu called her over.

“What did you say to Yiyi?”

Dong Yuanyao shrugged: “I didn’t say anything.”

Su Shiyu gave her a sideways glance, then looked towards Daohua: “You didn’t say anything, and Yiyi is upset?”

Dong Yuanyao turned to look at Daohua, noticed her faint smile, and immediately said: “She’s not upset!”

Su Shiyu somewhat speechlessly said: “To think you claim to understand Yiyi so well, yet you can’t even tell she’s forcing a smile.”

Dong Yuanyao was taken aback, again turned to look at Daohua, and saw her steadily drinking, her brows immediately twisted in concern: “I knew it, this person is saying one thing and thinking another.”

If she truly had no feelings for the Little Prince, after hearing what I said, she definitely wouldn’t look like she does now.

Hearing this, Su Shiyu somewhat guessed what Dong Yuanyao had said and hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, “Yuanyao, my grandfather always says that the affairs of others can never be fully understood by outsiders, so one should never impose their own one-sided views on the lives of others, especially when it comes to matters of the heart.”

Dong Yuanyao: “I didn’t interfere, I merely reminded Yiyi of the serious implications of the Little Prince’s matrimonial matters, told her about them.”

Su Shiyu nodded: “I know, you have Yiyi’s best interests at heart, but still, I think you should let things take their natural course.”

Dong Yuanyao frowned: “But if we let things take their natural course, it will definitely end up harming Yiyi.”

Su Shiyu glanced at Xiao Yeyang, who was walking toward Daohua with a skewer of well-cooked meat, and smiled faintly: “Are you so certain?”

Dong Yuanyao was choked up, her lips moved several times but in the end, she said nothing.

Su Shiyu chuckled: “Yuanyao, we are born into families of splendor and high station, indeed there are many things we can’t help, but this doesn’t mean these cannot be resolved.”

“You have to believe, the power of human emotions can erupt in an immensely strong force, one that is sufficient to overcome all kinds of hardships.”

“Let me ask you, if a sincere affection was placed before you, would you give it up for the so-called family interests?”

Dong Yuanyao looked at Su Shiyu with surprise, she hadn’t expected the usually proper and rule-following elder Miss of the Su Family to voice such an opinion.

“Shiyu, I thought you…”

Su Shiyu smiled: “Thought I was a bookworm?” Saying this, she pursed her lips and smiled, “Rules and etiquette, those are for others to see. If I were truly a blockhead, I wouldn’t have caught the eye of you, Miss Dong, right?”

Dong Yuanyao with a face of amazement: “Shiyu, my rebellion is on the outside, while yours is here,” she said, pointing to her head.

Su Shiyu laughed out loud: “Where does that come from, calling it rebellion? We, well, just have our own ideas. Whether you or Yiyi, our behavior might not be quite the same as the young ladies from other families, but that’s all because we are pursuing what we love.”

Speaking of which, he shifted his gaze and looked towards Daohua.

Dong Yuanyao also turned her head to look over.

Over here, Xiao Yeyang holding a plate of skewers he had grilled himself, placed them in front of Daohua and reached out to hand her a skewer of vegetables: “After eating such a large piece of meat, you must be feeling greasy by now, hurry up and have some vegetables.”

Watching Xiao Yeyang tenderly offering the vegetables, Daohua hesitated for a moment, took the skewer, and started to eat slowly. After a few bites, seeing that Xiao Yeyang was still watching her, she couldn’t help but speak.

“Don’t just watch me eat, go and have some roasted lamb at my fourth brother’s place,” she said.

Xiao Yeyang shook his head and smiled, “I like watching you eat. As for the roasted lamb, if you want more, I’ll go get it for you.”

Daohua was already feeling irritable, and hearing this made her even more annoyed, speaking with a bit of a harsh tone: “Xiao Yeyang, can you please stop hovering around me?”

As soon as the words left her mouth, Daohua regretted it. Seeing Xiao Yeyang frown, she simply bowed her head and stopped talking.

Xiao Yeyang was silent for a while, then said softly, “What’s actually wrong? Weren’t you fine before? Why are you so irritable now? Have I upset you?”

Seeing Daohua not speaking again, he continued, “If I did something wrong that upset you, don’t keep it inside, just tell me, I’ll change.”

Upon hearing this, Daohua was somewhat taken aback, looked at Xiao Yeyang, felt even more depressed, and didn’t know what to say. She put down the skewers and picked up the bottle of wine to drink again.

Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang snatched the wine bottle from Daohua’s hand: “You just drank nearly a whole bottle, if you keep drinking, you’ll be drunk later.”

Daohua frowned: “Give me back the wine.”

Xiao Yeyang shook his head: “I won’t.”

Seeing the two at a stalemate, Su Shiyu and Dong Yuanyao, worried that they would start arguing, immediately stood up and came over to smooth things over.

“Yiyi, look how beautifully the lotuses are blooming over there, let’s go admire them!”

After saying this, the two helped Daohua up and walked toward the wooden boat by the lotus pond.

Xiao Yeyang saw this and felt uneasy, signaling to Defu to follow them.

After the three girls left, Dong Yuanxuan and the others came over.

Yan Wenkai said, “Little Prince, are you having a conflict with my big sister again?”

Xiao Yeyang gave him a glare: “Who’s arguing with her? I’m telling you, your big sister’s temper has been getting worse and worse. You should step in.”

Yan Wenkai stared: “It’s enough that she doesn’t manage me, how dare I manage her?” Saying this, he paused for a moment and earnestly added, “Little Prince, my big sister is a young lady after all, with some temperaments peculiar to her sex. Don’t be too serious with her; you should indulge and pamper her more.”

Xiao Yeyang felt agitated and stood up, walking back and forth in the pavilion: “Am I not indulging her enough? Seeing her unhappy, I immediately grilled the vegetables she likes, all to make her happy.”

As soon as he spoke, Dong Yuanxuan, Su Hongxin, and Yan Wentao’s expressions all changed.

Xiao Yeyang was also getting desperate, not realizing that he had just revealed his feelings in front of others.

Only Yan Wenkai seemed unaffected, believing that cheering up his sister was the right thing to do.

Yan Wenkai analyzed the problem for Xiao Yeyang: “I think, you definitely got the wrong approach to cheering her up. Did you just stop my big sister from drinking?”

Xiao Yeyang nodded: “So what? I was just worried she’d get drunk and scolded when she got home.”

Yan Wenkai said, “…But my big sister is quite stubborn, you know? If you tell her not to do something, she’ll do it just to spite you. If you take her on, how can she not get mad?”

Xiao Yeyang pondered for a moment and felt that Yan Wenkai made sense: “Then tell me, what should I do now? I can’t just take her the wine and let her drink it, can I?”

Yan Wenkai shook his head: “There’s no need for that. My big sister has a generous nature; she’ll be angry with you for just a little while. After they finish boating and admiring the lotuses, she’ll naturally cool off.”

“Really?” Xiao Yeyang looked skeptical.

Yan Wenkai patted his chest: “Really, really, would I not understand my own sister?”

Watching Yan Wenkai, who seemed confused himself, giving advice to an even more flustered Xiao Yeyang, Dong Yuanxuan felt a tremor in his heart.

The Little Prince was so invested in Miss Yan, wasn’t he?

Just a slight display of discontent from Miss Yan was enough to throw him into disarray and upset his composure!
