There is Room For the Poor Daughter

"Big aunt, second aunt!"

As soon as she stepped into Mrs. Dong's room, Daohua saw her eldest aunt, second aunt, and two cousins ​​sitting and drinking tea.

When Fan and Jiang saw Daohua coming, they immediately put down their teacups, stood up and walked over, pulling Daohua to look up and down for a while.

Dong Yuanyao let go of the rice flowers at the right time, walked to Mrs. Dong and sat down.

After a while, Mrs. Fan tapped Daohua's forehead: "You girl, why are you so brave?" She dared to run to Xingyun Mansion where the plague broke out. startled.

Mrs. Dong smiled and said, "Isn't it true, Yiyi is still a good girl. At least I told my family that this girl in my family should be beaten, so I went behind our backs."

Dong Yuanyao immediately distinguished: "Mother, I left a letter."

Mrs. Dong glared at Dong Yuanyao: "You also said that you cut first and then played, hmph, wait for me, I'll take care of you later."

Dong Yuanyao shrank her neck, glanced at Daohua, who was also scolded, and gave her a look of pity.

The two aunts took turns talking about Daohua for a while. Daohua listened silently and nodded from time to time. After they finished speaking, they asked with a smile, "Auntie, Auntie, why are you here?"

Fan said with a smile: "Your eldest uncle heard that you are back and is still living in the government envoy's house. Your two uncles miss you and worry about staggering with you, so why don't you take the liberty of visiting the door to disturb you." Apologetically looked at Mrs. Dong.

Mrs. Dong immediately smiled and said, "What did Mrs. Li say? Yuanyao and Yi are on good terms, and everyone can communicate more in the future."

Fan Shi smiled and didn't answer.

She knew in her heart that this was Mrs. Dong's polite words. The Li family was a family of merchants, while the Dong family was a family of princes. .

Afterwards, while the two aunts and Mrs. Dong were talking, Daohua introduced the two cousins ​​to Dong Yuanyao.

"Are you going to go to your aunt's house later?" Mrs. Dong asked, looking at Daohua.

Mrs Fan smiled and said, "Forget it this time, my in-laws and my sister must have been waiting at home. We don't dare to keep their brothers and sisters."

Mrs. Dong smiled: "If this is the case, I am afraid that I will leave by boat later. These two girls haven't eaten yet. Let them go and eat first."

Mrs Fan nodded at Daohua: "Come on, when you finish eating, your brother and the others will probably have cleaned up as well."

Dong Yuanyao took Daohua to the dining room, and Daohua also pulled the two cousins ​​away.

During the meal, Daohua said to sister Li Zixuan, "Cousin Zixuan, cousin Zixin, do you want to go to my house with me to play for a while?"

Li Zixuan and Li Zixin glanced at each other, their expressions moved.

When Daohua saw it, she immediately smiled and said, "If you want to go, then go and tell the two aunties and ask them to order someone to go back and pack up."

Li Zixuan hesitated for a moment: "Will it disturb my aunt and uncle?"

Daohua: "Why bother, go to my house, you will follow me to class, it won't interfere with my mother and my father at all."

Dong Yuanyao also said with a smile: "Why are you hesitating when you have the opportunity to go out to play? If it weren't for the fact that I had only been away from home for a few months, I would have gone to Xingzhou with Yiyi."

Li Zixuan thought for a while: "Okay, let's talk to Mother now."

Daohua nodded: "Come on."

After the two left, Dong Yuanyao said enviously, "Hey, if only I could follow along."

Daohua replied directly: "In a short time, don't think about this, it will only increase your troubles."

Dong Yuanyao's face collapsed: "Yan Yiyi, you can't comfort me, can you?"

"I'm doing this for your own good, so that you can recognize the current situation in time, and don't make unrealistic expectations, so as not to be sad in the end!"

"Hmph, don't talk about it. My mother hasn't punished me yet. After you said that, I already foresee the tragic days of being locked in the backyard in the future."

Listening to the voice from the dining room, sisters Li Zixuan and Li Zixin came out with a look of surprise.

"Cousin is so familiar with Miss Dong."

"Cousin is a cheerful person, just like Miss Dong in temperament."

"Sister, do you think Mother will allow us to go to my aunt's house?"

"Yes? Don't think about it, just ask and you'll know."

In Mrs. Dong's room, Mrs. Fan and Mrs. Jiang agreed without hesitation after listening to their daughter's words: "Since Daohua invited you to play, you can go play for a few days."

Like Daohua, Yan Wenxiu also invited several cousins ​​to play at Yan's house, and Li Xingnian also came this time. First, he was worried about the children, and second, he went to congratulate his brother-in-law.

The emperor commended his brother-in-law, and they knew about it, so they should come to congratulate him.

Finally, the group waited until four o'clock in the morning (10:00 in the morning) to get on the boat.

In the cabin, Li Zixin saw the box that Wang Man'er had been holding, and asked with a smile, "Cousin, what is that in your maid's hand?"

Daohua smiled and said, "It's a birthday gift from Big Brother Dong."

Li Zixin immediately asked, "Can we take a look?"

Daohua laughed: "Of course, there is nothing to see." Then, she motioned Wang Man'er to open the box.

"Nice whip."

Li Zixin quickly took out the whip. She learned to dance and can dance ribbons. Looking at the whip, her hands were itchy, and she immediately said to Daohua: "Cousin, can I dance? I haven't danced the whip before. ."

Daohua nodded: "Of course."

Seeing that Daohua agreed, Li Zixin immediately ran to the deck with the whip, and then began to play.

Daohua and Li Zixuan followed with a smile.

Several people in the cabin saw Xiao Yeyang and came out.

Whip dancing requires strength and skill. Although Li Zixin was practicing dancing, her strength was not very strong. After dancing for a while, she lost interest.

"Oh, this whip is not the same as the ribbon at all. I can't dance. I feel that if I'm not careful, I'll hit myself." After speaking, he returned the whip to Daohua.

Daohua smiled and took the whip.

At this moment, Li Zixuan suddenly said, "Cousin, don't you know how to dance the whip, or can you show us the dance?"

Seeing the two cousins ​​looking at her expectantly, Daohua looked at the deck, and seeing that the venue was quite large, she nodded with a smile: "Okay, let me show you my skills."

As he said that, he moved a few steps and came to the center of the deck. As soon as the arm strength was used, the whole whip was thrown out with a 'smack'.

Then, in coordination with walking, turning over, and rotating, Daohua hit the whip with force and vigour.

Not only sisters Li Zixuan and Li Zixin could see it, but also Xiao Yeyang's few martial arts practitioners, all of them brightened up, and they couldn't help showing their amazement.

"it is good!"

Yan Wenkai couldn't help shouting loudly, and Xiao Yeyang and others also expressed their admiration.

When Daohua put away the whip, Zhou Chengye smiled and said, "Sister Yan, I didn't expect your whip to be so slippery."

Daohua smiled: "Uncle Qin said that the strength is not strong enough, and the accuracy is not high enough, so we have to continue to practice."

Yan Wenkai smiled and walked over: "Big sister is okay, you have to keep practicing, and I have to be careful in the future." After speaking, he took the whip in Daohua's hand.

"This whip is not bad, when did you buy it?"

Daohua: "Brother Dong said it was Bu's birthday gift."

Xiao Yeyang, who was still smiling at first, frowned upon hearing this.

Yan Wenkai also waved two whips, and then returned the whip to Daohua: "Brother Dong has a heart and knows that you need a good whip. You can also use this when you ride a horse in the future."

Daohua nodded with a smile, then picked up the whip and put it back in the box.

On the side, Xiao Yeyang saw Daohua smiling and putting away the whip like a baby. For some reason, his heart became uncomfortable, and he returned to the cabin with a sullen face.
