The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!

Chapter 574: Chapter 525, Testing_1

After chatting with Dong Lao TaiTai for a while, Madam Dong and Dong Yuanxuan excused themselves to leave.

“Go and check if your father has finished his work in the front courtyard. I can go back to the main courtyard by myself,” she said.

Seeing that her son wanted to accompany her, Madam Dong smiled and declined.

They had all been busy throughout the day, not only her, but also her son and daughter.

Dong Yuanxuan did not agree but instead said, “Mother, let me accompany you for a while.”

Madam Dong looked at her increasingly handsome and dashing son and smiled, nodding her head.

Along the way, noticing that her son attempted to speak several times but stopped himself, Madam Dong asked, “Xuan’er, do you have something to tell Mother?”

Dong Yuanxuan was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, mustered his courage, and looked towards Madam Dong, “Mother, I heard the conversation between you and Grandmother just now.”

Madam Dong stopped walking, turned her head to look at her son, and waited for him to continue.

Dong Yuanxuan: “…I think Sister Yan is quite good.” After saying this, he looked somewhat anxiously at Madam Dong.

Madam Dong silently observed her son for a while, seeing the nervousness in his eyes, she remained silent for a moment and continued walking while holding his hand, “Mother also likes that girl, but… your grandmother wasn’t wrong either, the Yan Family’s background is indeed a bit low.”

Dong Yuanxuan quickly responded, “Mother, I will work hard for my own future, not necessarily relying on the Yue Family’s support. Besides, Wen Xiu is knowledgeable and capable, his prospects in the future may not be worse than mine.”

Looking at her son’s eagerness, Madam Dong frowned, “Xuan’er, tell Mother the truth, you and Yiyi…”

Dong Yuanxuan knew what Madam Dong was asking about and hurriedly explained, “No, Mother, don’t overthink it. Sister Yan and I have always treated each other with the utmost respect, without any impropriety.”

Madam Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

Since she mentioned finding a match for her son, he had been acting quite cool, and she was genuinely worried that there might have been something going on between him and Yiyi.

Dong Yuanxuan continued, “Actually, before today, I had never thought this way. But when I heard Mother mention Sister Yan as a potential match for me, my heart was moved.”

“From childhood until now, I’ve met many young ladies from families we’re close to, but most of them are rather reserved and dull. They keep things to themselves and expect me to guess and wonder, which is tolerable once or twice, but if it’s going to be like this for a lifetime, the very thought gives me a headache.”

Madam Dong nodded in agreement. She didn’t like people who were too subdued either.

Seeing that his mother’s expression was good, Dong Yuanxuan gradually gained confidence, “I’ve always felt that our family is very good, Mother and sister are both cheerful, and seeing your smiles when I come home makes Father and me very happy. Even if I’m tired from being outside, my heart is joyful.”

“Luckily, Sister Yan is the same kind of person. Being with her always makes one feel open-hearted, relaxed, and comfortable.”

Madam Dong turned her head to look at her son, “Do you really only have this thought today?”

Dong Yuanxuan nodded earnestly.

Madam Dong turned away, sighing, “Mother has no objections to Yiyi, but your grandmother and your father… they may not agree.”

Dong Yuanxuan immediately furrowed his brows.

Madam Dong glanced at him and patted her son’s hand, “Since it’s someone you like, Mother will try to fight for it for you, but… don’t hold out too much hope. Yiyi is good, but she’s only one of the candidates.”

A look of joy appeared on Dong Yuanxuan’s face as he bowed with a fist in his hand, making a ninety-degree bow, “Thank you, Mother, for your blessing.”

Looking at her son, who was visibly pleased, Madam Dong furrowed her brows, returned to the main residence, and after her son had left, immediately summoned a maid and instructed, “Call the Personal Attendant who serves the Master. I have some questions to ask him. Remember, quietly, don’t alarm the Master.”

The nanny beside Madam Dong, seeing this, immediately asked, “Madam, are you worried that…”

Madam Dong shook her head, “I trust my own son, and I believe Yiyi is a lady who knows propriety and boundaries, but you’ve seen how happy Xuan’er was just now, I need to know how far they have actually gone.”

Soon, Dong Yuanxuan’s Personal Attendant arrived.

Madam Dong: “I haven’t disturbed the Eldest Young Master, have I?”

Personal Attendant: “The Eldest Young Master was called to the study by the Old Master, and he doesn’t know I came here.”

Madam Dong: “As his Personal Attendant, how is the Eldest Young Master’s secret relationship with the Yan Family’s eldest daughter?”

The Personal Attendant looked puzzled: “The Eldest Young Master and the Yan Family’s eldest daughter? They have never had secret dealings.”

Madam Dong immediately sat up straight, said sternly, “Are you certain? If you deceive me, be careful about your skin.”

The Personal Attendant nodded affirmatively: “Madam, indeed there is no such thing. When the Eldest Young Master and the Yan Family’s eldest daughter meet, it is mostly at the Yan Residence, or when going out for leisure, and usually our Miss, the Little Prince, the Third Master Yan, and Fourth Master Yan are present.”

Seeing that the Personal Attendant’s expression did not seem deceitful, Madam Dong’s mind relaxed, and after a silent moment, she said, “Okay, you can go back now. Do not tell the Eldest Young Master about today’s questioning.”

The Personal Attendant nodded repeatedly.

After the Personal Attendant left, the nanny brought Madam Dong a cup of tea: “It seems the Eldest Young Master’s proposal to marry the Yan Family’s eldest daughter was indeed a spur-of-the-moment decision.”

Madam Dong smiled and nodded: “Even if it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, he must have had some favorable impressions.”

The nanny laughed: “The Yan Family’s eldest daughter is as amiable as our Miss, naturally likable, and also so beautiful, it’s normal for the Eldest Young Master to feel favorably towards her.”

Madam Dong showed agreement and was about to say something when Dong Yuanyao ran in laughing, prompting Madam Dong to say unhappily, “You wild girl, behave yourself.”

Dong Yuanyao threw herself next to Madam Dong, acting coquettishly: “Mother, I was exhausted today.”

Madam Dong tapped her forehead: “You’re just assisting from the side and you feel tired? What will you do in the future if you get married and have to manage a household’s food and clothing?”

Dong Yuanyao complained, “Ouch, I really don’t want to get married.”

Madam Dong ignored this comment, looking affectionately at her daughter who was snuggling up to her, her expression shifted: “Right now, we are selecting a bride for your brother. Tell me, what kind of sister-in-law would you like?”

Dong Yuanyao glanced at Madam Dong, and seeing she was serious, fell into thought. After a while, lacking any concrete idea, she said, “As long as my brother likes her, it’s fine.”

Upon hearing this, Madam Dong immediately gave her a look and tentatively asked, “What do you think of Yiyi?”

Dong Yuanyao was startled: “Mother, why would you think that? Yiyi doesn’t like my brother, no, Yiyi only sees my brother as a brother. Please don’t randomly matchmake and end up making both families embarrassed.”

It might even offend the Little Prince to death, and the Little Prince does not have a large heart.

Madam Dong was speechless: “What are you saying? Is your brother not worthy of Yiyi?”

Dong Yuanyao shook her head: “It’s not a matter of worthiness, two people have to like each other to be together.”

Madam Dong looked askance: “Do you think your brother is not good enough, not deserving of Yiyi’s affection?”

Dong Yuanyao: “My brother is naturally good, but just because he is good doesn’t mean others have to like him. I have known Yiyi for so long, and I’ve never detected any special feelings for my brother. Besides, my brother doesn’t have thoughts about Yiyi either.”

She said, looking thoughtfully at Madam Dong.

“Mother, I know you like Yiyi, but you can’t jump into things headfirst. Let’s not even mention Yiyi, what about grandmother and father, do you think they would approve of the Yan Family? I know very well that grandmother really wants to find a prestigious and noble daughter-in-law for my brother.”

Madam Dong sighed: “True, I was just asking casually.”

Dong Yuanyao breathed a sigh of relief: “Mother, please don’t bring it up again, if word gets out and the Yan Family hears about it, and then our family doesn’t agree, it would be so awkward.”

Madam Dong said irritably: “You don’t need to teach me.”

Seeing her daughter looking worried, Madam Dong was completely convinced that her son and Yiyi had nothing going on in secret.

Since her son was not involved, and his feelings for Yiyi were not deep, even if he were told in the end that he could not be related by marriage to the Yan Family, it didn’t seem like he would be too disappointed.
