The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389: Chapter 365: Added Something Extra_1

After gifting the thirteen sets of glazed tea sets, Daohua and her companions left.

There was no helping it. Most of the glaze was for display and not for sale. Only major clients who had signed sizable orders could purchase them. Those who wanted to buy only one or two pieces had to wait until later, when the Xiangyang Glass Store in Ningmen Prefecture City opened.

It was still early, so everyone started strolling the streets.

“I had wanted to buy a set of glazed tea sets to honor grandmother, but who knew it would be a wasted trip,” Dong Yuanyao said with a look of disappointment.

Daohua laughed, “What’s the problem? Simply buy it when the Glass Store opens.”

Dong Yuanyao replied, “But who knows how long it will take before the Glass Store in the provincial capital opens?”

Yan Yishuang, who was following behind, overheard and immediately smiled, “Big sister, don’t you have many glazed items? Since you’re so close with Sister Dong, why not gift her one.”

Upon these words, everyone turned their gazes towards Yan Yishuang.

Dong Yuanyao gave Yan Yishuang a look that was both smiling and not, then turned to Daohua, “What did I tell you before? Those born from concubines just can’t stand to see others do well, always finding ways to drive a wedge between people. If I didn’t know your character well, I might have really developed a grudge.”

Daohua glanced coldly at Yan Yishuang, her eyes gleaming with a touch of chill, and called to Wang Manman, “Third sister is tired. Take her back to the Prefecture.”

This morning, if not for her adoptive father’s request, she would not have wanted to bring along Yan Yishuang and the other two.

Indeed, she did have a few glassware pieces in her room, almost all gifts from Xiao Yeyang. Her relationship with Dong Yuanyao was good, but that didn’t mean she was willing to share everything.

Yan Yishuang stiffened, looked at the others who were eyeing her coldly, bit her lip, and just as she intended to leave, she suddenly saw Xiao Yeyang and others approaching, and her eyes promptly reddened.

“Big sister, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have spoken while you and Sister Dong were talking. Please, I beg you, don’t send me home. It’s not easy for me to get out like this,” she implored.

Daohua immediately darkened her face, holding back her anger, and said in a low voice, “Yan Yishuang, must you weep in the middle of the street, bringing shame to the Yan family?”

Yan Yishuang bit her lip, looking at Daohua with eyes brimming with tears, the very image of a pitiful creature being bullied.

Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu, who had witnessed everything, looked at Yan Yishuang with admiration.

“What’s going on here?”

Xiao Yeyang and the others came over.

Daohua turned around, looked at Xiao Yeyang and the others, then at Yan Yishuang, who was pretending to be pitiable, and was left speechless.

She had once thought that Yan Yishuang had matured; little did she expect that she was still the same as ever.

Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu both had a moment of realization.

“I was wondering, how could she start crying all of a sudden? Turns out the gentleman who cherishes tenderness is here,” one of them said.

Hearing this, Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile exchanged glances, not daring to speak a word.

Seeing Daohua’s unpleasant expression, Xiao Yeyang glanced at Yan Yishuang and said indifferently, “You are too soft-hearted. When someone annoys you, why not dismiss them outright, instead of wasting words?”

At these words, everyone was at a loss for words.

Yan Yiyi (Big sister) has a soft-hearted nature?

Since when did the Little Prince have the ability to brazenly twist the truth like this?

Even Daohua’s face showed an uncharacteristic trace of discomfort.

Yan Yishuang gazed at Xiao Yeyang, dazed, as real tears began to flow. At the same time, her thoughts cleared.

Just now, she had been blinded by jealousy, seeing big sister getting along so well with Miss Dong and Miss Su, a flame of rage ignited within her.

Why is it that as daughters of the same father, big sister gets to be friends with other ladies, while she can only follow behind?

Why is it that only big sister gets to enjoy the glassware at home, while she has none?

So, unable to hold back, she spewed out her words of instigation.

Clearly, the bond between big sister and Miss Dong was stronger than she had imagined.

Upon hearing big sister’s wish to send her home, she was angry and ashamed. Seeing the Little Prince approaching, a sudden impulse surged to cause big sister trouble, hoping to tarnish her reputation before the Prince and his company.

Yan Wenkai was confused, “What are you talking about? What’s missing and what’s extra?”

Dong Yuanxuan looked at Yan Wenkai somewhat speechlessly, “Never mind, it’s pointless explaining it to you.” After saying that, he quickly went to catch up with the others.

“What the heck, it’s you who didn’t explain clearly!”

Yan Wenkai shook his head and caught up to Su Hongxin, complaining, “Brother Dong is just too twisted. Despite training martial arts with us, he insists on speaking in ambiguous terms like our elder brothers, and if he could explain clearly, that would be one thing, but he speaks in riddles, who can understand that?”

Su Hongxin patted Yan Wenkai on the shoulder, “You have to understand, Brother Dong isn’t like us, he is going to sit for the imperial examination one day.”

Yan Wenkai asked, “Aren’t you taking it?”

Su Hongxin shook his head, “Although my family has always produced civil servants, I’m an exception, I didn’t inherit the brains for studying from our ancestors, I couldn’t take it even if I wanted to.”

Yan Wenkai laughed, “No worries, you have me and the third brother to accompany you.”

Su Hongxin glanced sideways at him, “I still have to be a bit stronger than you two at least, I can at least write poetry.”

Yan Wenkai pursed his lips, “You’re not that much better, alright, let’s not talk about this. We should focus on martial training, I refuse to believe that only civil officers can make a name for themselves.”

Su Hongxin glanced at Xiao Yeyang and the others walking ahead and lowered his voice, “I heard some news while sparring with the soldiers in the barracks.”

Yan Wenkai asked, “What news?”

Su Hongxin replied, “There seems to be talk of war in the north again.”

Yan Wenkai’s eyes widened, “Really?!”

Su Hongxin quickly covered his mouth, “Keep it down, it’s not certain whether the news is true or false yet. For now, let’s just concentrate on our martial training. As long as we are skilled, we won’t lack opportunities to achieve great deeds.”

Yan Wenkai nodded, “You’re right, our martial skills are still not up to par, not enough to sweep through thousands of troops.”

Hearing that, Su Hongxin rolled his eyes.

Yan Wenkai’s talk of sweeping through thousands of troops was just absurdly grandiose.
