Chapter 622: Handkerchief
Looking at Xiao Yeyang eating wontons with big mouthfuls, Daohua couldn't help but remind him: "Eat slowly, don't burn yourself."
After running out of the city, Xiao Yeyang was really hungry. He nodded randomly and continued to eat with big mouthfuls until he had eaten most of the porridge in the bowl. Only then did he feel less hungry.
Daohua sat quietly beside him, with the wonton stall at the street corner, and she did not take off her veil.
Xiao Yeyang took a bite of wonton and looked up at Daohua. Looking at her hazy face through the thin white veil, he felt particularly peaceful in his heart.
Seeing that the wontons in Xiao Yeyang's bowl were almost empty, Daohua asked, "Are you full? If not, can I ask the boss to make another bowl?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded: "The wontons here taste pretty good."
Daohua smiled and signaled Wang Maner to ask the boss to make another bowl.
Soon, a bowl of hot wontons was served.
Seeing that Xiao Yeyang was sweating while eating, Daohua couldn't help but pick up a handkerchief to wipe it for him.
Xiao Yeyang stopped eating and waited for Daohua to wipe the food for him before continuing with a smile: "Would you like to eat some?" As he said that, he scooped a wonton and handed it to Daohua.
Daohua gave him a sharp look and said, "Xiao Yeyang, be quiet. We are on the street now."
Xiao Yeyang curled his lips in disappointment, took back the wonton and ate it in one bite.
After that, feeling that his stomach was almost full, Xiao Yeyang slowed down, stirring the wontons in the bowl and looking at the rice flowers from time to time.
Seeing him pretending to be hesitant to speak, Daohua felt a headache. She sighed and took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong with you today?"
Xiao Yeyang seemed to have found someone to talk to, and immediately snorted, "My father asked me to return to Beijing to attend Xiao Yechen's wedding." There was a hint of grievance in his tone.
Daohua's face suddenly showed enlightenment. She had said that Xiao Yeyang was rarely affected by others nowadays. It turned out that his frustration today was because of Prince Ping. After a moment of hesitation, she asked, "Do you want to go back?"
Xiao Yeyang shook his head decisively: "Of course not."
Daohua smiled and said, "Then I won't go back."
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua, and even through the veil he could see her eyes that were as bright as stars: "But if I don't go back, it will be disobeying my father's orders. I'm afraid my father will dislike me even more in the future."
Daohua was silent for a moment: "Do you care about this?"
Xiao Yeyang frowned and sneered, "I cared about it when I was a child, but now I don't care about it anymore."
Daohua asked again: "You really don't care?"
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment, then nodded affirmatively, sneering and saying, "This is the first time he's written to me since I came to Zhongzhou, and it's all for Xiao Yechen. He's never considered my feelings, so why should I care about him?"
Rice Flower: "If that's the case, then what are you still worried about?"
Xiao Yeyang was stunned for a moment, then laughed at himself: "Yeah, what am I struggling with? Maybe I'm afraid that others will say I'm unfilial?"
Daohua reached out and patted Xiao Yeyang's arm on the table: "Xiao Yeyang, in this world, only you know your own feelings, there is no empathy. You don't need to care too much about what others think. As long as you think you are right, then do it."
"Your life is your own. What's the point of living according to other people's ideas?"
A smile appeared in Xiao Yeyang's eyes. After thinking for a moment, he said, "But some people say that if I don't please my father, I won't be able to inherit the title of the royal palace."
Daohua immediately asked back, "Do you think everything you want is obtained by pleasing others and putting yourself at the expense of others?"
The smile in Xiao Yeyang's eyes became even more intense. He held Daohua's hand with his backhand. The depression in his heart completely disappeared, his brows relaxed, and his whole body became light-hearted.
Sure enough, Daohua understood him.
Daohua quickly looked around, then glared at Xiao Yeyang and quickly pulled her hand back.
Xiao Yeyang squeezed his hands with some regret, and asked with a smile: "It's so hot, why are you outside?"
Upon hearing this, Daohua's eyes suddenly curved with smile.
She didn't expect the meridian grass to sprout so quickly, and she found that the more plant energy it absorbed, the faster the meridian grass grew. Now that the rice in the fields was beginning to mature, she had to come out to gather energy.
Seeing Daohua's undisguised joy, Xiao Yeyang also became happy: "Miss Yan, what good thing happened to you? Tell me quickly, so that I can be happy too."
Daohua raised her chin: "I can't tell you this for the time being, but it's a good thing anyway."
Seeing her smug and playful look, Xiao Yeyang's hands were about to move, but thinking that they were on the street now, he held back: "Your birthday is coming soon, is there anything you want?"
Daohua shook her head and said, "I have everything I need. You don't need to prepare any gifts for me. Just come to my house with my third and fourth brothers for dinner that day."
As he spoke, he looked at the growing crowd on the street.
"I have to go back. You should go back and wash up too. The smell of sweat all over your body is almost suffocating me." As he said this, he fanned his nose with his hand, looking disgusted.
Xiao Yeyang's expression changed, and he quickly raised his arm and smelled himself: "Is it really smelly?"
Seeing him so nervous, Daohua couldn't help laughing out loud: "Okay, I'm just kidding, but if you don't go back and change, your clothes will really stink." After saying that, she stood up.
Xiao Yeyang then stood up and said, "I'll take you there."
Daohua shook her head: "No need, my home is across the street."
Xiao Yeyang thought that there were too many people around the government office and it would be inappropriate for him to appear at the same time as Daohua, so he didn't say anything else.
Daohua glanced at him and left with Wang Maner and Bishi.
The three of them walked a long distance away. Seeing that Xiao Yeyang hadn't caught up, Wang Man'er smiled in surprise and said, "The young prince is now listening to you more and more."
Daohua glared at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
Wang Maner stuck out her tongue and smiled at Bishi.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the gate of Yan's Mansion.
When she stepped into the gate, Daohua looked back and saw Xiao Yeyang standing at the street corner looking at her. She raised the corner of her mouth slightly and walked into the mansion with light steps.
Only after seeing Daohua enter the house did Xiao Yeyang take Defu and Delu away.
Defu and Delu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw that their master had subsided.
Sure enough, only Miss Yan can control the master.
Back at the house, Xiao Yeyang immediately asked Defu to get some hot water for a bath. During the bath, he asked, "Do I really stink?"
Defu shook his head: "That's not true. Didn't Miss Yan just say that she was just teasing you?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "This guy is getting more and more naughty."
Defu smiled and said, "That's because the relationship between Miss Yan and the master is getting closer and closer."
Xiao Yeyang loved to hear this, and he was in a good mood until he finished taking a bath.
Seeing Defu taking out the dirty clothes, Xiao Yeyang immediately stopped him: "Wait." He walked over quickly and took out a handkerchief from his clothes.
This was the handkerchief that Daohua had just used to wipe his sweat. After wiping him, Daohua didn't want the handkerchief anymore because it was covered with his sweat.
Xiao Yeyang asked someone to bring water, washed the handkerchief himself, and then hung it on the clothes rack to dry. After it dried, he sat down at the table with the handkerchief and wrote the origin of the handkerchief on it.
After the ink dried, he folded the handkerchief into a square and placed it in the wooden box in the secret compartment on the bed.
Looking at the several handkerchiefs treasured in the wooden box, Xiao Yeyang smiled silently, then took them out one by one and looked at them.
The first handkerchief was left by Daohua when he first met her and she bandaged his wound.
The second handkerchief was given to him on his fifteenth birthday when Rice Flower gave him a sea of ​​sunflowers.
The third handkerchief was left by Daohua when she came to the city to take care of him during the plague outbreak in Ji Guang.
The fourth veil.
Looking at the words on the handkerchief, Xiao Yeyang couldn't help but recall the situation at that time. These handkerchiefs recorded how Yan Yiyi took root in his heart.
"I wonder if she still remembers these things?"
