The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281: Chapter 263, The Complicated Imperial Family_1

After dinner, Dong Yuanyao took Daohua back to her own courtyard.

By then, the maids had prepared all the washing necessities and a change of clothes.

“We’re about the same size, so later you can wear my clothes. Don’t worry, all of them are newly made.”

Daohua smiled, “I wouldn’t mind at all.”

Dong Yuanyao huffed with pretend annoyance, but her face was smiling. She liked Yan Yiyi’s straightforwardness. Since she had already accepted Yan Yiyi as a sister, of course she wouldn’t want formalities between them.

She had entertained many young ladies from other families, but they were all either overly restrained or affectedly coy. Every time she dealt with them, she ended up exhausted.

The way Yan Yiyi was, so direct and open, suited her just fine.

“Miss, the bathwater is ready, you can change and take a bath now.”

Dong Yuanyao glanced at the bathing chamber and then her eyes gleamed with mischief. She smiled at Daohua and raised an eyebrow, “Together?”

Daohua let out a ‘heh’: “Why not, if we wash together, it saves the maids running back and forth.”

Watching Daohua head into the bathing chamber without a second thought made Dong Yuanyao pause in her tracks.

Could she say she was only joking?

She had never bathed with someone before!

This Yan Yiyi, how could she be so unembarrassed?

Daohua looked back into the bathing chamber, saw that the maids had prepared two tubs, and felt reassured. She turned to see Dong Yuanyao standing still, crossed her arms, and teased with a chuckle, “What’s the matter, getting cold feet?”

Dong Yuanyao’s face stiffened. She loved to play and tease, but taking off her clothes in front of someone else made her uncomfortable. She wanted to back out, but seeing Yan Yiyi’s challenging gaze, she blurted out impulsively, “Who’s scared?”

Daohua laughed, “Then hurry up.” With that, she walked into the bathing chamber.

Wang Manman immediately followed her inside and as she passed Dong Yuanyao, she bowed her head and covered her mouth to hide a laugh.

The Dong family’s Miss must be stumped now, right?

Dong Yuanyao nodded repeatedly, “Oh, yes please! The rouge and face powder you sent me before are much better than what is sold outside. How did you think to dabble in these things?”

Daohua replied casually, “If there’s a need, naturally you find a way to solve it.”

Dong Yuanyao, “You’re really clever.”

Daohua just smiled without saying anything.

It wasn’t that she was clever; she had simply borrowed the wisdom of modern people. In the modern era, these things were not extraordinary.

By now, Dong Yuanyao too had submerged herself in the tub and sent away the attending maids: “This is really comfortable!” she exclaimed with a smile. “It’s good you all are here, otherwise I definitely wouldn’t have been able to avoid punishment today. Didn’t you see my mother still giving me dagger looks at dinner?”

Daohua, “But once we leave, won’t your mother punish you anyway? You can’t escape it.”

Dong Yuanyao boasted proudly, “My grandmother will protect me. At most, my mother will make a big fuss but punish me lightly, nothing serious.”

Upon hearing this, Daohua immediately voiced her doubts, “Why did the old Madam come here from Beijing by herself? Wouldn’t your grandfather and uncle stop her? Aren’t they worried something might happen on the road?”
