Chapter 152, Poor Baby
"Xiao Yeyang, when will you set off to return to the capital?"
They were almost done eating the barbecue, and Daohua asked Xiao Yeyang while grilling the meat.
Xiao Yeyang paused for a moment, his hand gripping the meat. "Who said I'm going back?"
Daohua looked surprised: "Not going back? Then what are you going to do during the New Year? Who are you going to spend it with?"
Xiao Yeyang rolled his eyes at Daohua and said, "How can I not have a place to go during the New Year?" Although his tone was relaxed, he slowed down his eating speed.
Daohua glanced at Xiao Yeyang and suddenly thought of the scene when she first saw Xiao Yeyang.
Logically speaking, as a noble little prince, he must have many people serving him. It is impossible for him to fall to the point of being abducted by human traffickers, right?
But he was kidnapped!
Is there some conspiracy behind this?
Thinking back to Xiao Yeyang's furious reaction when she watched "Divorce", Daohua's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Could it be that "Divorce" is about Xiao Yeyang's family affairs?
Thinking of this, Daohua couldn't help but look at Xiao Yeyang with a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
Poor kid!
If her guess was true, then this guy must be the child abandoned by the lady of the house in her husband's family?
In an ordinary family, if a husband is divorced by his wife, he would be angry and ashamed, let alone in the royal family.
Xiao Yeyang's father was a prince, a man used to being noble. It was understandable that he was furious after being slapped in the face like this. So, Xiao Yeyang became the target of his anger.
First I was abducted, and now it’s the New Year and I can’t even go home!
The sympathy in Daohua's eyes grew stronger and stronger. Xiao Yeyang felt uncomfortable under her stare and said angrily, "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a handsome boy?"
Well.
Daohua's emotions were interrupted, and she looked at Xiao Yeyang speechlessly: "When did you, handsome boy, become a shrew and start selling melons?"
Xiao Yeyang retorted: "You can call yourself a beautiful girl, so what's wrong with me being a beautiful boy?"
Upon hearing this, Daohua immediately felt upset.
"Puff~"
Next to her, Zhou Jingwan couldn't help laughing. Seeing the little prince and Daohua looking at her silently, she pursed her lips and tried to hold back her laughter. After a while, she still couldn't help it, so she simply lay down on the table and stopped looking at the two of them.
Handsome boy and beautiful girl, I didn’t expect that the little prince and Daohua were so narcissistic, oh, she laughed to death!
Looking at Zhou Jingwan's constantly twitching shoulders, Daohua was speechless. What was so funny? Her sense of humor was really low.
Xiao Yeyang had already withdrawn his gaze and was flipping the barbecue in front of him from time to time.
Daohua also turned her attention back, looked at Xiao Yeyang, hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively: "How about you come to my house to celebrate the New Year?"
How lonely and desolate it must be to spend the New Year alone away from home?
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Daohua. When he saw the concern in her eyes, he was stunned for a while. After a while, he smiled and said, "No, it's New Year's Day. How can it be considered a big deal in someone else's house?"
"But you are alone"
After hearing this, Xiao Yeyang finally understood where the concern in Daohua's eyes came from, and immediately said with a smile: "Of course I'm not alone, this year I'm staying up all night with my uncle."
Daohua then remembered Xiao Yeyang's uncle, Governor Guo. "That's good!" She paused and said, "Is it just your uncle? Where's your aunt?"
Xiao Yeyang: "My aunt is going to be in the capital to manage the family affairs and be filial to my grandfather."
Daohua: "There are only two of you. Who will help you buy food for the New Year?"
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua. This guy was quite nosy, but he still said patiently, "Of course, someone below will take care of it."
Daohua nodded and thought for a moment: "There are still a lot of vegetables in my greenhouse. When you leave, I will prepare some more for you. This way, you can eat more comfortably during the New Year."
Xiao Yeyang did not refuse. Although the palace would also purchase vegetables, they were definitely not as good as those from Daohua's family.
"Hey, don't just eat meat, eat some vegetables too."
Seeing that there was only venison and beef on Xiao Yeyang's plate, Daohua immediately picked up a piece of roasted vegetables with chopsticks and put it on his plate.
Looking at the vegetables, Xiao Yeyang felt a little bitter and resentful. Could he say that he didn't like to eat them?
But when he saw Daohua also put some on Zhou Jingwan's plate and watched her eat before he looked away, he immediately picked up the chopsticks and swallowed the vegetables in a few gulps.
He didn't want to hear Daohua talk about the combination of meat and vegetables anymore.
As it was the end of the year, after eating barbecue, Xiao Yeyang said he wanted to go home.
Daohua didn't try to persuade them much about this. At the end of the year, there were many gatherings and things to do, especially the people in front of him, who were all people that families in Xingzhou City were vying to invite.
"Wait a moment, my family has grown some vegetables on our farm, and my mother said she'd bring some back for you all to try."
Dong Yuanxuan immediately expressed his gratitude: "Thank you very much, Aunt Yan. We won't be polite." The dishes at the Yan family are really better than those on the market. He has long wanted to bring some back for his parents and sister to try, but unfortunately, he has never been able to ask for it.
While waiting, Daohua saw Xiao Yeyang talking to his third and fourth brothers. After thinking for a while, she walked to Dong Yuanxuan.
Seeing Daohua standing beside him, hesitant to speak, Dong Yuanxuan was a little amused: "Sister Yan, do you have something to say to me?"
Daohua looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so she asked in a low voice: "Brother Dong, do you know Xiao Yeyang's mother?"
This is Xiao Yeyang's minefield, so she has to be careful so as not to accidentally say something that irritates him next time.
Dong Yuanxuan has been with Xiao Yeyang the longest and knows the most things, so it would be better for her to find out.
Hearing this, Dong Yuanxuan's heart was shocked, and he looked at the little girl in front of him with surprise, her eyes wide open and her face full of curiosity.
The young prince even told her about the former princess?
You know, the former princess is a thorn in the little prince's heart. He gets angry at anyone who mentions her. Unexpectedly, she now takes the initiative to talk to Sister Yan.
Dong Yuanxuan couldn't help but look at the eldest daughter of the Yan family carefully again.
Different from other young ladies who were delicate and reserved, the girl in front of him was graceful and radiant, with a pair of clear and bright almond-shaped eyes that were full of spirit. With a slight smile, the warmth in her eyes seemed to be able to warm people's hearts.
For a moment, Dong Yuanxuan was stunned.
"Brother Dong, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Dong Yuanxuan staring at her motionlessly, Daohua had to reach out and wave her hand in front of his eyes a few times.
Dong Yuanxuan came back to his senses and saw Daohua blinking and looking at him in confusion. He had an idea and raised the fan in his hand involuntarily and tapped her lightly on the forehead.
This time, it was Daohua's turn to be stunned.
After knocking, Dong Yuanxuan felt something was wrong and looked around hurriedly. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the rice flowers staring at him blankly, he smiled and said, "Sister Yan, if you want to know, go ask the young prince yourself." After saying that, he smiled and went to talk to others.
Daohua watched the man walk away speechlessly, rubbed his forehead, and cried out in his heart, why do people in ancient times like to hit other people on the head?
