Chapter 216: Accidentally Thinking Too Much
The backyard is stocked with fruits and vegetables all year round.
Old Madam Yan sat in the main seat in the main room. Daohua stood beside her, looking at the servant in front of her with his head lowered and an expression that he was afraid to see anyone. "I remember you. You can call me...de."
The servant was silent for a moment and said, "My lady, my name is Deshou."
Daohua clapped her hands immediately: "Yes, longevity."
It's no wonder that she has memories of this person. There are several people around Xiao Yeyang, and they appear on screen very frequently. Defu is needless to say, they serve Xiao Yeyang personally and will follow him wherever he goes.
She had seen this person in front of her several times. Whenever there was food to be prepared, this person would be there and should be responsible for the food.
Looking at Deshou, whose head was almost down to his chest, Daohua was speechless. Was she really that scary? "Are you here to buy my vegetables?"
Deshou nodded, then remembered his master's order not to let Miss Yan find out about buying vegetables, and shook his head quickly.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Daohua had no choice but to continue asking, "Why, the vegetables and fruits I sent to your master are not enough to eat?"
Deshou nodded first, then shook his head.
Now, not only Daohua was tired, but even Old Lady Yan felt that the servant in front of her was too unpleasant and was always indecisive.
Daohua: "In October, in addition to the food that my elder brother and the others sent over, in the middle of the month, he came over to collect grain and seeds, and I prepared another cart of food for him. It couldn't have been insufficient. Did he use it to entertain someone?"
Speaking of this, Daohua suddenly thought of the three strange women she met on the main peak of Wuhua Mountain.
At that time, Xiao Yeyang and Brother Dong had very strange reactions. They seemed not to be worried about the three women at all. Later, Fourth Brother told her that outsiders were not allowed to enter or exit the main peak of Wuhua Mountain.
If he is not a stranger, then he must be someone I know.
Then, Daohua thought of the villa on the top of the mountain. Could it be that the three people lived in the villa?
In this case, the identity of that lady is very unusual.
Who is it?
The emperor's concubine left among the people?
In an instant, Daohua's thoughts were scattered. One moment, it was the sad story of the emperor and the common woman's unrequited love, and the next moment, it was the tragic fate of the imperial concubine who angered the emperor and was abandoned in the other courtyard.
No matter which one it was, the lady obviously didn't want to stay in the villa in obscurity, so she pretended to faint on the Double Ninth Festival to trick Xiao Yeyang.
The purpose is to return to the palace?
If this is true, Xiao Yeyang must have been harassed a lot.
Xiao Yeyang was the emperor's nephew, and that lady was the emperor's concubine, so she could barely be considered his elder. For some unknown reason, he had to send things to the villa, including the food she sent.
Daohua nodded as she thought about it. Don't say it, it's really possible. After thinking about it, she looked at Deshou with a smile: "Is your master going to send something to the other courtyard?"
Deshou's heart trembled, and he suddenly raised his head with a look of shock on his face.
How did Miss Yan know about this?
After the Dragon Boat Festival this year, the master would send some food and drinks to the villa from time to time. No one else knew about this except Defu and him.
Seeing him like this, Daohua immediately smiled as if she understood. "Xiao Yeyang is really something. He wanted to send something to the lady in the other courtyard without even telling me. Now there's not enough food left!"
"Judging from your appearance, you must have come here quite often. You don't even mind the trouble of coming here again and again!"
Deshou lowered his head, almost crying in his heart.
He didn't say anything, so how did Miss Yan know about the existence of the former princess?
It's over. He will probably be beaten to death by his master when he returns.
You know, the master doesn't really want to mention the former princess in front of others.
Daohua smiled and looked at Deshou: "Wait a moment, I'll have someone go to the farm to pick some fresh vegetables." She paused and said, "Is one cart enough?"
Deshou nodded quickly and said, "That's enough, that's enough. Miss Yan is very practical. Every cart is packed tightly. The amount in one cart is more than what most people put in two carts."
Unexpectedly, Daohua said, "Forget it, let's just give two carts, one for your master and one for the lady in the other courtyard."
That lady was left in the villa, but Xiao Yeyang still sent her gifts. It seemed that she had some status, and maybe she would return to the palace one day.
Since you are going to give a gift, be generous. This way, you will show your gratitude.
Old Lady Yan spoke up: "Send some to Wen Xiu and the others as well."
Daohua smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, grandma, I won't forget about my big brother and the others."
After a while, De Shousong came back to Wangyue Academy with a sullen face and five horse-drawn carriages full of vegetables, fruits and melons.
Wangyue Academy.
The courtyard where Xiao Yeyang lives.
Looking at the five carts of vegetables and fruits that Deshou brought back, Xiao Yeyang was a little annoyed: "Didn't I tell you to be careful? How come Daohua still found out?"
Deshou lowered his head in grievance: "Master, it's really not my fault. Who would have thought that Miss Yan and Old Madam Yan would go out shopping, and just happened to pass by the fruit and vegetable shop." And they recognized him!
Xiao Yeyang sighed: "Forget it, just let him know. At most, Daohua will think that I'm a little greedy." As he said that, he paused and looked at the five carts of vegetables, fruits and melons with a frown.
"I do eat more, but there's no need for Daohua to treat me like a pig. He can just feed me five carts of food at a time and let me die of stuffing."
Deshou's mouth twitched, and he said quickly: "Two cars are for the three Mr. Yans, and one car is for Mr. Dong and Mr. Su."
Although the academy has a cafeteria, the food doesn’t taste very good. Therefore, families with some wealth usually rent a yard and cook their own food so that they can eat better.
Although the three brothers of the Yan family did not have their own courtyard, they could borrow the kitchen of Dong Yuanxuan and others.
Xiao Yeyang's expression froze, and he said dryly, "Those two cars are too many!"
Deshou looked up at his master, then took a deep breath and said with a stiff upper lip, "There's a car for the master of the other courtyard."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Yeyang's eyes widened, and even Defu looked over in surprise.
Xiao Yeyang looked incredulous: "What did you say? Who is this car for?"
Deshou bent his knees and fell to the ground: "Master, I really didn't say anything. Miss Yan just asked me if the food she sent was not enough, and I just nodded."
"After that, I don't know what she thought of, but she assumed that the master had sent the food to the other courtyard. Then, for some reason, she mentioned the master of the other courtyard, and thus, an extra cart was sent."
Xiao Yeyang frowned and looked at Fu.
Defu immediately knelt down and said, "Master, I swear I have never told Miss Yan anything."
Xiao Yeyang frowned. Defu and Deshou had always followed him, and he knew their loyalty.
But apart from them, only Dong Yuanxuan and Su Hongxin knew something about their mother's affairs.
Could it be that they said something to Daohua?
Xiao Yeyang shook his head. The two knew that this was their taboo and probably wouldn't say anything more.
So, it was just Daohua's own random imagination.
Her ability to make up stories is first-rate, and she might even have given her mother a confusing identity.
Thinking of Daohua's eyes that were rolling around with curiosity and exploration, Xiao Yeyang felt a little annoyed.
This guy is sometimes so smart that it's outrageous. If she continues to hold on to him, maybe her mother's identity will be exposed by him.
Thinking of the bad comments about his mother from families in the capital, Xiao Yeyang frowned and felt a little worried.
Daohua likes Divorce Ji. She wouldn't look at her mother the same way as other people, right?
