The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!-Chapter 1184 - 1007: Utilizing
Chapter 1184: Chapter 1007: Utilizing
It was Daozi’s first day at school, so Daohua had the kitchen prepare some of his favorite dishes and went to Chuihua Gate to welcome him home from school.
"Do you like studying at the Academy?" Daohua asked with a smile, holding Daozi’s hand and inquiring about his day at the Academy.
Daozi nodded his head: "Yes, Mother, everyone at the Academy likes me a lot."
Walking behind them, Xiao Yeyang thought of his son standing on the table, gesticulating animatedly, and couldn’t help but laugh.
The boy was lively and not shy, which comforted Xiao Yeyang as he could easily fit in wherever he went.
"Oh, Mother, the teacher took my school bag and asked me to ask you and father, he wants to make something like mine for everyone else in the class, and asked if you would agree?"
Daohua looked towards Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang briefly mentioned, "I just went to the Academy, spoke with the principal, and agreed."
These were minor matters, and Daohua didn’t mind. Seeing her son adapting well at the Academy, she encouraged him, "Now that you’ve started classes, you should study diligently."
"When I have free time, I will write more storybooks for you, but if you can’t read, you won’t be able to understand the stories in them."
Upon hearing this, Daozi immediately became excited and promised, "Don’t worry, Mother, I will study hard in class."
...
Since Daozi began attending the Academy, the Prince Residence quieted down a lot, which took Daohua, Gu Jian, and Guo Ruomei some time to adjust to.
With nothing to do, Gu Jian, who had recovered, began sitting at the pharmacy again, but to avoid overworking him, Daohua strictly limited his hours; whenever Gu Jian lost track of time while treating people, Daohua would send someone to remind him.
As for Guo Ruomei, she took up knitting and made several sets of sweaters and trousers for the child in Daohua’s womb; whenever she came over to chat with Daohua, she always held the sweaters she was knitting.
In the blink of an eye, over a month had passed, and Daozi had already become close friends with many people at the Academy.
On November 11, after school in the afternoon, just as Daozi and Xiao Moreng were about to take the Prince Residence’s carriage home, they were stopped by Xiao Moqing.
"Fourth Brother, Moxi, my third uncle gave me a foal, do you want to come see it?"
Xiao Moreng wasn’t interested in the foal, but Daozi wanted to see it; he had long wanted a foal, but mother and father disagreed, saying he should wait until he was older to keep one.
"Fourth Brother, let’s go have a look."
Xiao Moreng hesitated, "Auntie will worry if we don’t return to the residence on time."
Daozi thought for a moment, then said to Xiao Moqing, "Seventh Brother, let’s not go see the foal today. I’ll talk to my mother when I get back, and tomorrow, Fourth Brother and I will come."
Xiao Moqing nodded, "Alright."
Back at the Prince Residence, Daozi immediately reported his wish to visit An Residence to see the foal to Daohua.
Daohua was silent for a moment. She was not fond of An Family, but she did not want to prevent her son from interacting with other children and nodded her agreement.
Having received Daohua’s permission, the next day after school, Daozi excitedly dragged Xiao Moreng to visit An Residence.
When Xiao Yeyang was leaving the office, Mr. An was waiting at the door, deliberately revealing the news about Daozi visiting An Residence to see the foal.
Xiao Yeyang glanced at the sky, worried Daozi and Xiao Moreng might play too late and encounter an accident in the snow on the way back, so he decided to go to An Residence with Mr. An.
Mr. An was instantly pleased, finally having Xiao Yeyang visit his home.
Given Xiao Yeyang’s status, he rarely had the opportunity to invite him to An Residence, but his mother’s plan must take place at An Residence.
He racked his brains and finally thought of the idea to have Moqing invite Xiao Moxi to visit An Residence. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Having successfully enticed Xiao Yeyang, it was worth the high price he paid for a Ferghana foal.
...
An Residence’s backyard.
When Old Madam An received the message sent by Mr. An, she lovingly adjusted the hair of her beautiful granddaughter in front of her.
"Prince Wei Yuan, despite his young age, holds a high and powerful position. What’s more rare is that he only has one woman from the Yan Family in his household; even if you were to become a concubine, his status would not disgrace you."
An Xin’s face showed worry: "Grandmother, Prince Wei Yuan has a very good relationship with Princess Consort Xiao. I’m worried... Prince Wei Yuan might not even consider me."
Madam An scoffed: "The Yan Family woman does have good looks, but no matter how beautiful, one can get tired of her. Besides, she can’t compare to your youthful delicacy. Men are just like that, there isn’t one who doesn’t love something young and fresh."
While speaking, she grabbed An Xin’s hand and patted it.
"Good child, you have so many sisters, but you were chosen to come to Xiliang because of your virtues and beauty, even the imperial concubine praises you incessantly. You should be confident."
"Recently, your father sent another letter; the situation in Beijing is becoming more tense. Although the Crown Prince is favored by the emperor more than ever, the Second Prince and the others are always thw...
"Child, you must understand, only if the Crown Prince officially becomes the Crown Prince can our An Family maintain its wealth and honor."
"Now that the Yan Family woman is pregnant, this is your opportunity. Your third uncle has put a lot of effort into luring Xiao Yeyang to our residence; you must seize this opportunity."
"Once you successfully marry into Prince Wei Yuan’s residence, even if it means helping the imperial concubine and the Crown Prince win over the Prince’s faction, the Crown Prince’s bargaining chip to become the Crown Prince will be even stronger."
"And you, as the Crown Prince’s benefactor, once the Crown Prince ascends to the throne, do you still have to worry about that common-born Yan Family woman?"
An Xin obediently listened: "Grandmother, I will do my best."
Madam An nodded in satisfaction: "Go on, go and prepare."
An Xin curtsied, then turned and left.
After leaving Madam An’s courtyard, the obedient look on An Xin’s face disappeared instantly, replaced by a determined one.
She knew she was just a pawn for the An Family to win over Prince Wei Yuan, but so what?
She was a concubine-born daughter, and because of her outstanding looks, she had always been suppressed by her legitimate mother and sisters. If it wasn’t for her own efforts, following her grandmother to Xiliang, her mother would have certainly gotten rid of her casually.
Thinking of the lives her half-sisters were leading now, An Xin couldn’t help but shiver.
Prince Wei Yuan was her best choice. This time, she was determined to succeed.
Thinking of Prince Wei Yuan’s impressive appearance, An Xin’s cheeks reddened slightly. To marry such a man, even as a concubine, she was willing in her heart.
Just Princess Consort Xiao...
Thinking of the last visit and how Princess Consort Xiao had shown no respect for her grandmother, An Xin felt a bit uneasy, but quickly calmed herself down.
Grandmother was right, as long as Prince Wei Yuan liked her, even if Princess Consort Xiao was dissatisfied, what could she do?
...
Meanwhile, Lord An was smiling as he led Xiao Yeyang into the An Residence: "The young princes should be in the stable looking at the horses. Prince, follow me to the drawing room for a cup of tea. I’ll have someone fetch the young princes now."
Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "No need for tea, let’s go straight to the stable." His son was very bold, and he was worried he might climb onto a horse and ride.
Lord An smiled and nodded: "Then I’ll go with the Prince."
As they were halfway there, a maid hurried over: "Master, the old lady heard that the Prince had arrived and wanted to come out to greet him, but in her haste, she accidentally sprained her foot, and Madam asked me to fetch you."
Lord An was startled and quickly turned to Xiao Yeyang: "Prince, I’ll go check on my mother first. I’ll have the servants take you to the stable."
Xiao Yeyang ’hmm’ed: "You go and check on the old lady." He paused, "Later, I will bring Moreng and Moxi to visit the old lady."
Since the old lady had sprained her ankle coming out to greet him, it would be improper not to visit her.
Lord An thanked him and hurried to the back courtyard.
Xiao Yeyang watched him leave and said to the servants of An Residence: "Let’s go, lead me to the stable."
Under the guidance of the servants, Xiao Yeyang quickly passed through a garden. The garden was empty, but there stood an easel.
Looking at the painting on the easel, Xiao Yeyang involuntarily slowed his pace.
