The Humble Family’s Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!

Chapter 967: Chapter 818, Seeing Off

Because of Yan Yile’s situation, Old Lady Yan fell ill with anger, and Daohua had someone inform Xiao Yeyang, who stayed that night to tend to the illness.

The Feng Family visited seven days later.

Yan Zhigao and Madam Li, accompanied by Yan Wenjie and Zhu Qiyun, went to meet them.

Yan Zhigao had a good rapport with Feng Libation Reader, but this meeting was quite awkward for both of them, and neither Madam Li nor Madam Feng felt at ease.

Yan Wenjie, Zhu Qiyun, and the accompanying Feng Family’s second son, as the younger generation, could only sit quietly with bowed heads, not daring to speak.

Fortunately, the Feng Family brought a matchmaker, whose presence eased the tension at the scene slightly.

The Feng Family had come to propose marriage, but Yan Zhigao and Madam Li did not immediately agree, stating that Yan Yile’s parents were not present, and that they had to write to them inquiring their opinion before giving a reply.

After seeing off the Feng Family, Madam Li looked towards Yan Wenjie and Zhu Qiyun: "You two should write the letter to your second brother and sister-in-law yourselves. Once their reply arrives, I will go back to the Feng Family."

After saying this, she fell silent for a moment.

"Wenjie, Qiyun, you saw for yourselves how the Feng Family marriage proposal came about. If Yile has a hard time in the future, don’t blame us for this matter."

Yan Wenjie and Zhu Qiyun quickly shook their heads, indicating they would not.

Yan Zhigao sat to the side without speaking. The Feng Family’s delayed visit by seven days clearly showed that Feng Libation Reader and Madam Feng were not very enthusiastic about this marriage proposal.

Now that they had come to ask for marriage, it was simply the result of weighing the pros and cons.

If he hadn’t known about Yile’s great grievances towards the Elder Feng Residence, he might have expressed his own opinion. But now, he really didn’t have the energy.

If he were to express disapproval of the marriage, he might even be accused of holding a grudge.

Later, Yan Wenjie and Zhu Qiyun left the main courtyard in silence, clearly not delighted by the Feng Family’s proposal.

However, Yan Yile was visibly overjoyed upon hearing of the Feng Family’s proposal: "I knew it, I knew that Feng Brother would not let me down, he said he would definitely marry me, and now he truly did."

These days of waiting had really driven her mad with anxiety—afraid that the Feng Family would reject her, afraid of being sent back to her hometown, and then casually married off to a common farming family. Luckily, the outcome was good.

Seeing the ecstatic Yan Yile, Yan Yihuan wore no joy on her face, instead her eyes were filled with deep concern.

She had carefully inquired about the incident at Earl Residence, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that her sister’s encounter with the Feng Family’s second son was too much of a coincidence.

If all this was deliberately orchestrated by the second son of the Feng Family, could her sister find happiness after marrying into their family?

Zhu Qiyun noticed Yan Yihuan’s worried expression and patted her shoulder: "Although the Earl Residence managed to suppress the incident, our eldest sister heard rumors and rushed back home, which shows that it couldn’t be kept secret."

"Now that the Feng Family has taken the initiative to propose, it is already the best outcome. As for Yile’s future life with the Feng Family... that will depend on her own fate and abilities."

...

After the Feng Family’s visit, Madam Li stopped concerning herself with Yan Yile’s matters and was busy helping Su Shiyu pack and prepare her dowry.

Seeing the stacks of parcels large and small in the room, Su Shiyu affectionately wrapped her arm around Madam Li’s: "Mother, you’ve provided us with enough items, please don’t add any more."

Madam Li disagreed: "I’ve heard that conditions in Yuezhou are quite harsh. If we don’t prepare enough items, what will you do if there’s anything you lack there?"

Su Shiyu smiled: "How could there be any shortage? Everyone at home is keen to give us their most treasured possessions; we only have more and not less."

Madam Li smiled and continued to instruct: "Once you two newlyweds are there, if you lack anything, you must write back and let the family know."

Su Shiyu obediently nodded her head.

At that moment, Ping Tong came in to report: "Madam, Fourth Young Madam, the eldest daughter has returned."

Madam Li immediately smiled, looking at Su Shiyu: "You and Wenkai are leaving for Yuezhou tomorrow. Yiyi must have come to see you off."

"Mother, let’s go to grandmother’s courtyard," said Su Shiyu, as she and Madam Li walked arm in arm to the Old Lady’s courtyard.

The affectionate gesture between the two was seen by Han Xinran, who was also on her way to Old Lady Yan’s courtyard.

A trace of sorrow flicked across Han Xinran’s eyes, and she stopped in her tracks, not daring to step forward.

Her nanny saw the expression on her own young lady’s face and felt a deep ache in her heart, but there was nothing she could do about it.

This time the affair between the Fourth Young Madam and Feng’s second master had not been openly criticized by the Madam, but she had taken back all responsibilities from the young lady, letting her take good care of the young master.

"Nanny, how did I end up with such a family? Other people’s parents are afraid of their daughters being wronged in their marital homes. My family, on the other hand, seems to be afraid that I’m living too comfortably."

Spoke Han Xinran, murmuring to herself.

The nanny hesitated for a moment, then spoke boldly: "Miss, if I may be so bold, now that you’re part of the Yan Family, regarding the Han Family... perhaps it’s best to keep contact to a minimum."

Han Xinran turned to look at the nanny and after a long silence, she smiled and said, "You’re right, Nanny. It is time to lessen the contact."

In the courtyard of the old Madam, Zhou Jingwan and Daohua were quietly talking.

Zhou Jingwan, "The Feng Family has come to propose marriage, and Yan Yile is over the moon."

Daohua’s face showed no surprise as she glanced at Yan Yile seated beside her. Seeing the joy in her eyes that she couldn’t hide, she silently shook her head.

The Master of Sacrificial Wine Feng values his reputation, and Madam Feng values rules. How could Yan Yile have any good days after marrying into the Feng Family because she was discovered having a private meeting with the second son of the Fengs?

Zhou Jingwan was also at a loss for words. A daughter-in-law not favored by her parents-in-law, without the strong backing of her natal family, it was hard to understand what she was so happy about.

Daohua didn’t want to talk about Yan Yile anymore, "Let’s not talk about such disheartening things." Saying this, she touched Zhou Jingwan’s slightly bulging belly, "Is the baby giving you any trouble?"

Zhou Jingwan’s face immediately lit up with a joyful smile, "Not at all, the child is very well-behaved, I haven’t suffered a bit."

Daohua, "Remember what I told you, you must get a suitable amount of exercise every day, to ensure an easier delivery later on."

Zhou Jingwan, "Rest assured, I remember."

Later, Yan Wenkai returned, and Daohua went to their courtyard with Su Shiyu.

Zhu Qiyun and Yan Yihuan saw Daohua leaving and quickly dragged Yan Yile to follow.

"You were really out of line the other day, make sure you properly apologize to your eldest sister later."

Yan Yile was somewhat unwilling, "I didn’t say anything wrong."

Zhu Qiyun looked at Yan Yile with an exasperated expression, "Younger sister, don’t think that just because the Feng Family has come to propose, everything is settled. The elaborate plans you made to marry into a high-status family were to have a better life, weren’t they? But without the support of your natal family, how are you going to establish yourself in your husband’s family?"

Yan Yile fell silent for a moment, "Haven’t I already apologized to my uncle and aunt? Why should I apologize to my eldest sister again? Besides, with the current status and position of the Yan Family, my marriage into the Feng Family isn’t really mismatched, is it?"

Zhu Qiyun couldn’t help but hold her forehead, all of a sudden not wanting to say anything.

Yan Yihuan next to her abruptly let go of Yan Yile’s hand, "Younger sister, have you forgotten that a large part of the Yan Family’s current status and position is due to your eldest sister marrying into the Prince Residence!"

Looking at her incensed sister-in-law and sister, Yan Yile wasn’t completely ignorant; she simply didn’t want to lower her head to Daohua.

However, in the end, she compromised.

"Fine, I’ll go, alright?"

By the time the three of them reached the courtyard of Yan Wenkai and his wife, Daohua was about to leave with Yan Wenkai. She had prepared some medicinal ingredients and had to explain them in person to Yan Wenkai.

Most importantly, she had selected a few personal military doctors, as well as prepared a flowchart for making anti-inflammatory drugs for childbirth.

All of these details needed to be carefully explained to Yan Wenkai.

"Eldest sister."

Zhu Qiyun called out to Daohua, then pushed Yan Yile forward, "Eldest sister, Yile wants to apologize for her thoughtless words the other day."

Daohua glanced at Zhu Qiyun and the reluctant Yan Yile, "Sister-in-law, if apologies worked, what would we need the Governor’s Office for?" With that, she walked away with Yan Wenkai.

Seeing this, Zhu Qiyun and Yan Yihuan were left standing, frozen in place.

"I told you not to come, but you insisted on looking for trouble. Eldest sister has never been easy to deal with since we were young; don’t you know that?"

Su Shiyu came out of the house when she heard the commotion, and upon hearing Yan Yile’s words, she found it utterly ridiculous.

"The daughters of the same Yan Family, why is there such a big difference?"

The accompanying nanny sighed, "Living too many good days makes one feel entitled to everything. Such people not only lack a grateful heart but also blame others when things go awry."

On the twenty-eighth day of the second month, Yan Wenkai and Su Shiyu boarded the carriage for Yuezhou.

"If anything comes up, write to us."

Xiao Yeyang, with Daohua, saw them off at the dock.

Yan Wenkai nodded, "I will." Then, looking at Daohua, "Take good care of my sister while I’m gone; don’t let anyone bully her."

Daohua laughed, "Fourth brother, I’m tough enough not to be bullied by anyone. It’s Shiyu you should really take care of."

Looking towards Su Shiyu, "My fourth brother can be a bit careless at times; you need to take good care of yourself."

Su Shiyu kept nodding with a smile.

Yan Wenkai muttered, "When have I ever been careless? I’m very warm, okay?"

Daohua laughed, "Yes, yes, you’re the world’s warmest man."
