The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 946

Chapter 946: Chapter 805: Under the Thumb

Because they had to attend the family banquet at the Duke Residence on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang took a carriage back to the city, while the Prince stayed behind, planning to return with the old Prince on New Year’s Eve.

Early on the morning of the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, the Duke Residence began bustling with activity, but the Guo Family did not celebrate lavishly—it was merely a gathering of Guo Clan members for a meal.

Early on, Guo Ruomei anxiously waited: "What do you think, will Yeyang and Yiyi come?"

Mei Shuang smiled, "My lord, didn’t the young Madam reply that she would come? Just relax and wait to have tea with your daughter-in-law."

The anxious expression on Guo Ruomei’s face eased slightly, and she continued, "Quick, get the gift I’ve prepared for Yiyi so I don’t forget later."

Mei Shuang immediately retrieved a pair of sparkling, translucent Hetian Yellow Jade bracelets from the dressing table’s box.

Guo Ruomei accepted the yellow jade bracelets, her expression tinged with reminiscence: "These were part of my dowry given by my mother when I got married, and now I can pass them on to Yangyang’s wife."

Mei Shuang smiled, "My lord, giving such rare yellow jade bracelets to the young Madam will certainly make her very happy." After a moment of thought, she added, "My Lord, since the young master and the young madam are coming, do you think you should inform the senior Madam?"

Just the thought of her elder sister-in-law made Guo Ruomei’s smile fade: "Father and elder brother already know that Yeyang and Yiyi are coming, they will tell her. We shouldn’t speak out of turn."

Mei Shuang nodded and said no more.

There was some animosity between the lord and the senior Madam, and during her stay at the Duke Residence, the lord always avoided her as much as possible.

At the gates of the Duke Residence.

When the carriage bearing the Prince Residence’s insignia stopped at the gate, the gatekeeper’s servants were slow to react, only springing into action when Xiao Yeyang helped Daohua out of the carriage, rushing into the mansion.

Madam Guo, along with Guo Xueming, was receiving the female members of the Guo Clan when a maid hurriedly came in announcing that Xiao Yeyang and Yan Yiyi had arrived. Neither mother nor daughter could control their facial expressions.

One face fell, and the other showed astonishment.

Madam Guo took a deep breath and barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "Where are they?"

The maid replied, "Sister Mei Xue is taking them to the Duke’s yard."

Guo Xueming pondered for a moment then tugged at Madam Guo, reminding, "Mother, since cousin and his wife have arrived, let’s go greet them at grandfather’s yard."

Upon entering, Xiao Yeyang led Daohua to pay respects to Duke Coleman.

After bowing their heads, Xiao Yeyang smiled at Duke Coleman, "Grandfather, this is your granddaughter-in-law." _{freewёbn૦νeɭ.com}

Daohua took the tea handed by Mei Shuang and offered it to Duke Coleman, "Grandfather, please have some tea."

Duke Coleman surveyed Daohua, nodded with a smile, took a sip of the tea, and handed her the gift he had prepared earlier.

Daohua received the agate bracelet, her smile brightening as she thanked him, "Thank you, Grandfather, I really like this bracelet."

Duke Coleman was momentarily dazzled by Daohua’s bright smile, the corners of his mouth curling up more prominently; the girl was indeed cheerful and lively.

Xiao Yeyang helped Daohua up and they knelt before Governor Guo, Xiao Yeyang also bowing thrice: "Uncle, this is your niece-in-law."

Daohua held out the tea to Governor Guo, "Uncle, please have some tea!"

Governor Guo took a large sip of the tea and gave Daohua a Jadeite Jade Pendant.

Daohua, still smiling radiantly, thanked him.
