Chapter 808: Chapter 688: Red Agate Mandarin Duck Rings (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3

Madam Guo immediately smiled and said, "The agate ring bestowed by His Majesty is definitely of the highest quality. Yeyang, auntie is going to be shameless just this once and ask you for an agate ring. You wouldn’t refuse, right? Your cousin Xueming has grown so much, yet she doesn’t even have a single decent ring."

Xiao Yeyang did not respond immediately but looked at the Duke, and upon seeing that he had no objection, immediately understood the reason his maternal grandfather had called him over.

"Maternal grandfather, auntie, I apologize, but I plan to save the agate ring for my future wife, so I can’t give it to cousin Xueming."

Madam Guo’s face suddenly turned sour, and Guo Xueming also blushed and lowered her head.

The Duke’s smile stiffened for a moment, but he quickly recovered, "Since you have another use for it, then forget it. Come, drink a few more with your grandfather."

Madam Guo, feeling snubbed, said something to the Duke, then took Guo Xueming and left.

After the mother and daughter had left, the Duke looked at Xiao Yeyang: "Yeyang, what do you think of your cousin Xueming?"

Xiao Yeyang looked at the Duke, his face serious, and said, "Maternal grandfather, I already have someone in my heart."

The Duke was silent for a moment: "Is it the eldest legitimate daughter of the new Minister of Revenue?"

Xiao Yeyang nodded.

The Duke said, "Yeyang, your grandfather doesn’t wish to interfere with your marriage, but think it over carefully. The Yan Family’s foundation is indeed weak, marrying the Yan Family’s eldest daughter won’t do much to help your future career. On the contrary, the Yan Family will need your support."

"Especially since your father has favored the Ma Family, and now Xiao Yechen can compete with you for the Prince Residence’s title. In recent years, the Ma Family has developed quite well, and Xiao Yechen has married the legitimate daughter of the Duke’s Residence. If you don’t have a capable Yue Family to support you, I’m afraid you won’t be able to compete with him."

Xiao Yeyang smiled: "Thank you for your concern, grandfather. Everything I want, I will fight for myself, without the need for the Yue Family’s support. The eldest daughter of the Yan Family is someone I truly wish to marry, regardless of status or position."

The Duke sighed and said no more. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Does your mother know about this?"

Xiao Yeyang nodded: "She knows."

Hearing this, the Duke decisively changed the subject and continued to invite Xiao Yeyang to drink and eat.

...

By the time Xiao Yeyang left the Duke’s Residence, the moon was already high in the sky.

Xiao Yeyang took out a red chalcedony mandarin duck ring from his bosom and looked at it. He knew that this time was not the best opportunity to visit Daohua, but somehow he found himself heading towards the Yan Residence anyway.

Outside of Yan Residence, Defu and Deshou looked at each other bewilderedly as they watched their master staring blankly at the Yan Family’s courtyard wall.

Defu muttered quietly, "The master wouldn’t be thinking of climbing the wall, would he?"

Deshou’s eyes widened: "That can’t be. The master would never do something so unseemly."

Defu chuckled inwardly. When it came to Miss Yan, the master could toss all his principles aside.

Deshou listened for a moment to the distant watchman’s call: "It’s almost 9:00 PM now. Miss Yan should already be asleep. Even if the master climbs the wall, he won’t see anyone. How about you go and suggest to the master that we return now and come back tomorrow?"

Defu gave Deshou a sidelong glance: "Why don’t you go tell him?"

While they were talking, they saw Xiao Yeyang suddenly throw a chicken leg towards the wall, then lean against it as though possessed.

Meanwhile, in Daohua Pavilion.

Daohua had just finished washing up and was preparing to dry her hair and go to bed when she suddenly heard the sound of a dog barking in the courtyard. Stepping outside her room, she saw Bi Shi trying to calm down Dog Xiaoyi.

"What’s the matter?"

Bi Shi was sweating and shook her head, "Xiaoyi was fine just a moment ago, but then he suddenly started leaping and barking. Nothing calms him down."

Daohua approached and stroked Dog Xiaoyi’s head, "It’s late, hurry up and sleep."

Dog Xiaoyi clamped onto the hem of Daohua’s skirt with his mouth and tugged her outside.

Daohua was puzzled, "Xiaoyi, what are you trying to do?"

Bi Shi suggested uncertainly: "Could he be wanting to lead the lady somewhere?"

"Where do you want to take me?" asked Daohua, her curiosity piqued as she followed Dog Xiaoyi out of the courtyard.

Soon, they arrived at the back street wall of the courtyard.

"Bark! Bark! Bark!"

Outside the courtyard wall, Xiao Yeyang, uncertain whether his actions would be effective, heard the barking of the dog and a look of ecstasy crossed his eyes. Then, in one leap, he was on top of the wall.

Seeing the sudden appearance of Xiao Yeyang, Daohua’s eyes widened, and her mouth fell open slightly.
