The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!-Chapter 1218 - 1038, Oddity

According to Sun Family’s plan, she intended to take Yan Yile directly to the Prince Residence. In her view, as the Princess Consort’s second aunt, it was only fitting that she be entertained by the Prince Residence upon her arrival in Xiliang.

Unfortunately, her plan sounded good, but it was disrupted by Han Xinran.

Ever since finding out that Sun Family and Yan Yile were coming, Han Xinran had people watching at the city gate, and Yan Wenxiu also got some help from the gatekeepers.

Sun Family’s thick-skinned nature was something both Yan Wenxiu and Han Xinran were very familiar with; they understood her character all too well and feared that upon her arrival, she would go directly to Daohua.

"Big sister is now the Princess Consort. Every move she makes is observed by all, and as an elder, a visit from her second aunt would be difficult for her to refuse."

"Big sister is married off. After entering the Prince Residence, the Yan Family hasn’t been much help to her. How could we bother her with Yan Family matters again and again?"

That was exactly what Yan Wenxiu said to Han Xinran. Hence, not long after Sun Family presented her travel permit to the city guards, Han Xinran received the news.

Hearing that Sun Family truly intended to head straight for the Prince Residence, Han Xinran promptly took Yan Yihuan to intercept them.

One street away from the Prince Residence, Han Xinran’s carriage blocked Sun Family and Yan Yile’s path.

"Second aunt, fourth sister, you’ve finally arrived. How come you didn’t give us advance notice?" Han Xinran said with a smiling face as she descended from her carriage.

Seeing that it was her eldest daughter and niece-in-law, Sun Family also alighted from the carriage with a smile.

In front of the carriage, Han Xinran engaged in warm and thoughtful small talk with Sun Family, interrupting her several times when she tried to bring up visiting the Prince Residence.

"Second aunt, you and the fourth sister must be tired from your journey. Please, come back to the residence with me to rest."

Standing by, Yan Yihuan realized that her sister-in-law did not want their mother and sister to visit the Prince Residence, feeling a bit uneasy, but still smiling and together with Han Xinran, led her mother and sister back to the Yan Residence.

Throughout the whole ordeal, Yan Yile sat in the carriage without alighting or uttering a single word, simply glancing several times at Han Xinran through the carriage curtain, her lips curled into a sarcastic smile.

"Wow, this residence of yours is really nice, even better than the estate we lived in at the Beijing Suburbs. It’s hard to believe that grandmother is still worried every day that you would be suffering here."

Once they reached the Yan Residence, Sun Family entered and began to look around.

Just as Han Xinran was about to make a polite remark, she was interrupted by a sudden voice from behind.

"The eldest brother is the legitimate firstborn of the Yan Family, the most promising person in the family, oh, I misspoke, the most promising should be the eldest sister."

"She’s so prestigious and delicate, even a slight bump would greatly concern our grandmother, unlike us tough-skinned ones who couldn’t possibly compare."

With these words, Yan Yihuan furrowed her brows. Before she could say anything, Sun Family spoke first: "What nonsense are you talking about, girl? Seems like you’ve been muddled by the carriage ride."

After saying that, she feigned annoyance and lightly smacked Yan Yile, then smiled again at Han Xinran.

The smile on Han Xinran’s face had disappeared, as she gave Yan Yile a cool look: "I saw that the fourth sister was silent the whole way here; I thought she might have changed over the years. But looking at you now, it seems you haven’t changed at all."

Yan Yile, sensing an insinuation about her and her divorce in Han Xinran’s words, looked at her haughtily: "Why should I change? On what grounds must I change? Eldest sister-in-law, please clarify your words."

At that, Han Xinran laughed sarcastically, no longer humoring her, and directly said: "Fourth sister, you’ve been full of sarcasm the moment you entered. What, have I, as your eldest sister-in-law, wronged you in some way?"

Yan Yihuan, seeing Han Xinran’s stern face, grew anxious and hurriedly pulled at Yan Yile, signaling her to calm down.

Sun Family was also at the side, incessantly signaling to her with her eyes.

Unfortunately, Yan Yile was unappreciative and shook off Yan Yihuan, looking at Han Xinran with a cold laugh: "I’m sarcastic, but wasn’t it you, elder sister-in-law, who looked down on us from your high horse?"

Han Xinran was speechless: "How have I looked down on you?"

Yan Yile sneered repeatedly: "Mother and I were going to visit elder sister’s residence, why did you obstruct us? Do you think we are too embarrassing, not worthy of setting foot in the Prince Residence? You were in such a hurry to block our way!"

Han Xinran responded with an angry laugh: "You still have the nerve to ask this, I’ll ask you, did you inform us prior to your arrival in Xiliang? Even if that’s ignored, did you send a formal announcement before going to the Prince Residence?"

At the side, Sun Family couldn’t help but mutter: "Given our relationship with Daohua, is there really a need to send a formal announcement?"

Han Xinran was truly at her wits’ end with this absurd mother and daughter: "Even amongst relatives, proper etiquette is required. Arriving without notice is utterly lacking in propriety."

Yan Yile’s face revealed a sneer: "We have no manners, but the Han Family seems to have plenty, weren’t they the ones who came directly to the Yan Family’s door?"

Han Xinran was truly angered this time. She looked at the self-righteous Yan Yile, too livid to even speak.

Seeing Yan Yile’s remarks getting more and more out of line, Yan Yihuan stepped forward and scolded, "Enough, fourth younger sister, is this how you should treat your sister-in-law? Apologize to sister-in-law this instant."

Yan Yile glanced sideways at Yan Yihuan and ignored her: "However others treat me, that’s how I’ll treat them."

Han Xinran scoffed repeatedly: "Fourth younger sister, you really are becoming quite formidable." Saying that, she turned to Yan Yihuan, "Second younger sister, I can’t entertain my second sister-in-law and fourth younger sister. You handle it yourself."

With those words, she was about to storm off.

Just as Han Xinran turned around, Yan Yile’s voice rose again: "So the big sister-in-law isn’t pretending anymore? As expected, without grandmother and aunt, your graciousness and virtue are gone."

Han Xinran whirled back, giving Yan Yile a cold look: "Do you think everyone owes you? That everyone should revolve around you? Yan Yile, you are truly beyond sympathy."

This statement caused Yan Yile’s face to change dramatically, as she bellowed with clenched teeth: "I don’t need your sympathy!"

Han Xinran glanced at her one more time, no longer wishing to deal with the three of them, and left with her maidservant.

Watching Han Xinran leave angrily, Yan Yihuan felt both anxious and furious.

At this unfortunate moment, the Sun Family still complained, "This Xinran, is this how she treats guests? To just leave us stranded here like this, indeed, after your aunt left, they’ve really raised their tails high in the air."

Yan Yihuan was incredibly weary: "Mother, do you and younger sister have even the slightest appearance of being polite guests?"

The Sun Family was taken aback, Yile was indeed wrong just now, but Xinran was no better: "I am an elder."

Yan Yihuan had no desire to keep talking.

After waiting for a while and seeing that nobody came to tend to them, the Sun Family became restless, pulling at Yan Yihuan, "What do we do now?"

Yan Yihuan rubbed her temples in frustration: "How should I know? You both manage to anger the big sister-in-law as soon as you arrive, and now you’re asking me what to do?"

Saying so, she looked towards the brooding Yan Yile.

"Fourth younger sister, have you forgotten the purpose of your visit to Xiliang? Why can’t you just restrain your temper?"

Yan Yile sneered: "Without them, can’t I still live my life?"

Hearing this, Yan Yihuan also grew angry: "If you’re so principled, then why did you come to Xiliang?"

This remark stabbed Yan Yile, who looked at Yan Yihuan with teary eyes: "Second older sister, even you look down on me now? You’re going to join them in humiliating me? It’s as if my coming here has dirtied their door?"

Seeing her younger sister’s red eyes and thinking about her having lost a child, then getting divorced and returning home, Yan Yihuan sighed, "The big sister-in-law and older sister do care a lot about you."

Yan Yile scoffed: "Caring about me? No, they just treat me as a joke to watch, that’s all."

Yan Yihuan moved her lips, knowing she couldn’t persuade her sister right now, she didn’t say more. Considering that standing idly in the courtyard wasn’t helpful, she first took the Sun Family and Yan Yile to her own guest room, and then went to find Han Xinran to apologize.

Main courtyard.

Han Xinran, thinking about what Yan Yile had said and her attitude, became more and more furious with every thought. Just as Yan Wenxiu came back, she immediately told him everything.

"Does our main branch owe the second branch something? One by one, they haven’t contributed the slightest to the family, and when they cause trouble, it’s the main branch cleaning up after them. Not to mention, in the end, we don’t even get a word of thanks."

Just as Yan Yihuan entered the courtyard, she overheard these words, and her body swayed slightly.

"The fourth younger sister has been through a divorce, her temperament is inevitably a bit twisted, as the big sister-in-law, try to be a bit more understanding."

"How much more understanding do I need to be? Because of her divorce, the Yan Family’s reputation has also suffered. Who has ever spoken against her or blamed her for that? She’s the one who made the mistake, but now she’s the one blaming others."

"Alright, stop being angry. Take care not to harm your health due to anger."

"How can I not be angry? I’m so fed up with the people from the second branch. Everyone has their own difficulties, but how come the people from the second branch only ever consider themselves?"
