Chapter 488, Hundred Households
Seeing Xiao Yeyang's fearless look, Daohua was so angry that her teeth were itching. She couldn't help but stretched out her hand and twisted his waist.
"Ouch, it hurts!" Xiao Yeyang naturally would not wait to be abused, so he quickly got up and avoided it.
"You dare to hide? Stop right there!" Daohua was so angry that she ran after the man and twisted him.
At the door, Wang Maner and Defu looked at their master playing like a child in the house, then looked at the sky and the ground.
After chasing for a while, Daohua stopped. She had not paid attention just now and used her injured right hand. Because she had used too much force, the wound now felt a little painful.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Seeing Daohua rubbing her right arm, Xiao Yeyang hurried over and asked.
Daohua snorted and turned her head away, ignoring him.
Xiao Yeyang tugged at Daohua's sleeve: "Okay, don't be angry. At worst, I'll just stand still and let you twist me. Is that okay?"
Daohua then looked at him: "Really?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded, but as soon as he finished nodding, he felt a pain in his waist: "Are you really twisting it?"
Daohua: "If I don't teach you a lesson, do you think I'm easy to bully?" As she said that, she increased the strength in her hands.
This little bit of strength was nothing to Xiao Yeyang, but looking at the smile on Daohua's face, he still grimaced as if he was in great pain.
After twisting for a while, Daohua finally relaxed, let go of her hand, and said magnanimously, "Humph, I'll let you go this time."
Xiao Yeyang rubbed his waist and sat back down at the table. Seeing that the Laba porridge had lost its heat, he immediately said, "The porridge is cold. How can I eat it?"
Rice Flower: "You did that yourself."
Xiao Yeyang: "It would be a shame to pour it out. Let's share half each."
Daohua glared at him, "You've already eaten this, and you're asking me to share it with you. Do you know any etiquette?"
Xiao Yeyang: "If you don't want to, forget it. Why are you shouting so loudly?"
Daohua sat down angrily. Xiao Yeyang immediately scooped a spoonful of Laba porridge and handed it to Daohua's mouth: "Another mouthful?"
Daohua didn't say anything, just looked at Xiao Yeyang straight.
After staring at each other for a few seconds, Xiao Yeyang gave in under the sparks of rice flowers: "Forget it, it's not good to eat it cold, I'd better eat it myself."
Only then did Daohua look away.
At the door, Wang Man'er glanced at Defu and whispered, "The young prince is getting more and more suicidal!"
Defu sighed, unable to find any reason to defend his master.
Xiao Yeyang finished a bowl of Laba porridge in a few mouthfuls, put down the bowl, and touched the rice flowers with his hand: "Okay, no more jokes with you, let me tell you something serious."
Daohua turned to him and asked, "Have you finished with the matter over at Sishan Village?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded and said, "It has been arranged. Because you knocked out many people with drugs and allowed us to capture many alive, the emperor's uncle wanted to use Sishan Village as a fishing spot."
Daohua subconsciously lowered her voice and leaned towards Xiao Yeyang: "Diaoduan Prince's people?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and nodded, then flicked Daohua's forehead with his hand: "Your brain makes money very quickly."
Daohua immediately sat up straight and glared at him.
Without waiting for her to speak, Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "I have some good news. Do you want to hear it?"
Daohua raised an eyebrow: "What good news?"
Xiao Yeyang stretched out his right hand and hooked his index finger at Daohua. Seeing that Daohua didn't move, he added, "It's about this reward."
Daohua instantly became interested and leaned forward.
Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang smiled triumphantly, leaned forward, and whispered in Daohua's ear: "Your two brothers have been promoted. They are now centurions of the Jinling Guard, sixth rank."
Daohua's eyes lit up: "Really?!"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "I can still lie to you."
Daohua asked again: "What about you, did you get promoted?"
Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "I am already a fourth-rank pacification envoy, and it is difficult to rise any further. However, my uncle the emperor has given me the sole charge of a Jinling Guard Thousand Households Division, which is considered to be giving me real power."
Daohua smiled brightly: "That's great."
Seeing Daohua's undisguised joy, Xiao Yeyang's eyes flickered: "Are you happy for me?"
Rice Flower: "Aren't you talking nonsense?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled, and his smile was very happy and cheerful.
Daohua was also dazzled by this smile. Looking at Xiao Yeyang's face so close to her, her expression was a little unnatural, and she straightened up quickly.
Seeing Daohua pull away, Xiao Yeyang felt a little disappointed. Then he saw her covering her face with her hands. He was a little puzzled at first, but when he noticed that her ears were stained red, he pursed his lips and smiled softly.
"why are you laughing?"
"I'm not laughing!"
"You're obviously smiling."
"I'm really not laughing. How about you come closer and take a closer look?"
Just as the two were arguing, voices were heard outside the yard.
Hearing the sound, Daohua immediately stood up and moved away from Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang also changed from his previous playful appearance to his serious self in front of others.
At the door, Defu and Wang Maner looked at each other again, and both sighed in their hearts that their master was a master of acting.
Soon, Yan Wenxiu, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai walked in.
Seeing Daohua was there too, Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wentao's faces became a little stiff. The little prince was really doing everything he could. Since he couldn't enter the backyard, he called his eldest sister to their yard.
Yan Wenkai, on the other hand, walked towards Daohua with a big laugh: "Big sister, did you bring the Laba porridge?"
Hearing this, Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wentao looked at each other and sighed together.
Turns out there's a traitor!
The three of them entered the house. Yan Wenkai went to eat Laba porridge, while Yan Wenxiu looked at Xiao Yeyang and then said to Daohua, "Big sister, do you have anything else to do? If not, go back to the backyard."
Xiao Yeyang spoke before Daohua: "I was just talking to Daohua about serious matters."
Daohua looked over and saw her eldest and third brothers looking at her, and nodded hurriedly.
Xiao Yeyang said calmly, "Daohua said before that they didn't have enough manpower and wanted a few people, so I brought them to her." As he said that, he glanced at Defu.
Defu immediately took out a few pieces of paper from his pocket.
Xiao Yeyang handed it to Daohua: "These are the information of Zhao Yongwang and his people. I only selected some with families for you. Take a look for yourself."
Yan Wenkai said while eating Laba porridge, "So those people were selected for my eldest sister?" As he said that, he walked to Daohua and looked at the list on the paper.
"Those one-eyed and bald guys are really good at fighting. Big sister, you don't do anything outside, so it's a waste of their talents to keep them in your hands."
Daohua was unhappy: "How can this be a waste of talent? I also have a lot of things that need people with martial arts skills to do."
Yan Wenkai: "What can you do?"
Rice Flower: "I will have more and more fields and farms in the future. Don't I need some powerful people to keep them under control?"
Seeing Yan Wenkai seemed to want to compete with Daohua for people, Xiao Yeyang couldn't stand it anymore: "Alright, don't worry about it. Those people specifically asked to follow Daohua. You can lead people under you now. If you need someone, go find them yourself. Don't be so useless and compete with your own sister."
