Chapter 796, Abnormal
After the family recognition banquet in the palace, Prince Ping was taken away for tea by other clan members, while Xiao Yeyang took Daohua back to the palace.
After returning to the palace, neither of them thought about meeting Princess Ma and went straight back to Pingxi Hall.
She went to the prince's mansion to recognize her relatives, and then to the palace to recognize her relatives. Although she did not encounter any difficulties, after all the social activities, just recognizing and remembering people took up a lot of Daohua's energy, not to mention dealing with the royal women who were very smart.
Daohua's nerves were tense throughout the whole process, for fear that she would fall into a trap dug by others without realizing it. When she relaxed, she felt extremely exhausted. In addition, she did not get a good rest last night. As soon as she returned to the room, Daohua fell weakly on the pillow on the bed.
Seeing Daohua's tired face, Xiao Yeyang felt distressed and went to sit next to her: "It will be fine after these two days."
Daohua hummed, "I want to sleep for a while."
Xiao Yeyang nodded, then reached out to unbutton her clothes.
Daohua quickly slapped his hand away: "What are you doing?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled helplessly: "How can you sleep without taking off your clothes?"
Daohua choked and hesitated for a moment: "Well, I can take it off myself."
Xiao Yeyang immediately sat on the edge of the bed with his arms folded across his chest, looking at Daohua leisurely. After waiting for a while, he saw Daohua lying motionless, so he leaned over to Daohua's ear and chuckled softly, "Why don't you take it off? Do you still want your husband to help you?"
Daohua glared at him, knowing that this guy would not avoid her, so she got out of bed and took off her outer clothes in front of him, then got into bed wearing only her undershirt.
When Xiao Yeyang saw this, he personally pulled the quilt over Daohua to cover her. Seeing Daohua looking at him in surprise, he smiled and said, "Go to sleep quickly. I won't bother you." After saying that, he patted Daohua's back, as if he wanted to coax her to sleep.
Seeing how attentive he was, Daohua felt strange, but she was so sleepy that she didn't bother to guess what he was thinking.
After Daohua fell into a deep sleep, Xiao Yeyang got up and went to the study.
In the study, Xiao Yeyang thought of the murderous intent that had flashed across the Empress Dowager's eyes in the Cining Palace today. His brows knitted tightly together. After a moment of silence, he called Defu over, "Where's the person who was sent here?"
Defu was stunned for a moment, then he immediately understood who Xiao Yeyang was referring to as 'that person': "Master, according to your previous instructions, he is working in the laundry house. We will make any plans after Second Madam has taken a look at him."
Xiao Yeyang: "No need, just send her to the main house and keep her by Yiyi's side to serve her in the future."
Defu looked surprised, then nodded immediately: "Yes, I will do it right away."
Xiao Yeyang said again: "Go and call Bu Gandang to me."
Afterwards, Defu went to deliver someone to Daohua, while Bu Gandang met Xiao Yeyang in the study.
"Congratulations on your wedding, Master. I wish you and your wife a long and happy marriage and many children and grandchildren."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and nodded, then casually handed him a red sachet.
This was specially prepared by Daohua for the maid in the room. The sachet was embroidered with a pattern of a newlywed couple bowing with fists clasped together, and it was filled with some gold and silver longans, peanuts, and lotus seeds.
Bu Gandang took the sachet with a smile and said, "Thank you, Master, for the reward." He carefully put the sachet into his arms and said seriously, "Master, do you have any instructions for me?"
Xiao Yeyang said seriously: "Send someone to keep a close eye on the Jiang family. If there is anything wrong with the Jiang family, be sure to tell me immediately."
The Jiang family has been too quiet in the past few months. Duke Jiang and Prince Jiang have not done anything to help Jiang Jinghui, which has left him unemployed at home.
It's so abnormal!
He always felt that the Jiang family was secretly planning something, and after meeting the Queen Mother today, this feeling became even more obvious.
Seeing Xiao Yeyang speak so seriously, Bu Gandang's expression also turned serious: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely keep a close eye on the Jiang family."
On the other side, Wang Man'er saw Defu coming with two pretty maids, saying that they wanted to stay and work for her daughter in the future. She quickly pulled him to a corner and asked, "What do you mean, son-in-law? Are those two his concubines?"
Seeing that Wang Man'er had misunderstood, Defu quickly shook his head: "What do you mean by a concubine or not? Don't talk nonsense. These two people were just sent here to do errands."
Wang Man'er frowned. "Why would you send two maids here for no reason?" She snorted, "There are already enough maids in Pingxi Hall."
Defu glanced at the maids sweeping the yard. Knowing that these people were sent by the princess, he didn't say much. He just said, "The master will talk to the second wife about this matter personally. You should settle them down first."
Hearing this, Wang Man'er didn't say anything more. She called Guyu and asked her to arrange accommodation and tasks for the two people.
Not long after Defu left, Xiao Yeyang came back.
Seeing that it was getting late, Wang Man'er asked, "Sir, it's almost time for dinner. Should we wake the young lady up?"
Xiao Yeyang waved his hand and said, "No need. Just keep the food warm and serve it to Yiyi when she wakes up." After that, he drove Wang Maner and the others out of the room. He went into the bathroom to wash up, then lay down on the bed in his pajamas.
Looking at the person he had been thinking about day and night sleeping beside him so unreservedly, Xiao Yeyang felt soft in his heart. Looking at Daohua's rosy cheeks, he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her cheek gently.
In her sleep, Daohua felt her cheeks a little itchy. She couldn't help but mumble and turned over.
Xiao Yeyang knew that she was tired and didn't want to wake her up, so he took a deep breath, lay down and closed his eyes to rest.
Daohua was more or less not used to the sudden change of sleeping place, especially with another person lying next to her. As she liked to toss and turn in her sleep, this undoubtedly affected her performance and she felt uncomfortable in various ways.
Xiao Yeyang was just taking a nap with his eyes closed, but when he felt the person next to him tossing and turning, he opened his eyes instantly.
Looking at Daohua who was closing her eyes, frowning, pouting and mumbling something, Xiao Yeyang curled the corners of his mouth, glanced at the floor clock, and thought that Daohua should be almost asleep, so he reached out and hugged her delicate body, then turned over and covered her, lowering his head to look at his wife's red lips.
Daohua was woken up and wanted to push away the person who was causing trouble, but the strength difference was too great. She twisted Xiao Yeyang a few times in embarrassment and anger, but in the end she reluctantly gave in to him.
Seeing how embarrassed the two looked, Wang Man'er hurriedly sent them away.
After a long while, when she heard Xiao Yeyang asking her to set the table, she trotted to the kitchen, brought the food that had been kept warm back to the room, and set it on the table without even looking away.
As soon as she finished setting it up, she heard Xiao Yeyang asking her to leave.
Wang Man'er was a little worried about Daohua, and couldn't help but glance up at the bed. She saw her daughter snuggling in her brother-in-law's arms with a listless look, and a hint of worry appeared on her face.
