As soon as the Academy closed for the holiday on the seventeenth of the twelfth lunar month, the three Yan Wenxiu brothers returned home. This year, the epidemic had caused their elder family members much worry, so they needed to spend more time accompanying them at home.The twentieth of December was Yan Wenkai’s fifteenth birthday. On this day, Xiao Yeyang arrived with Dong Yuanxuan and Su Hongxin.Li Xingnian also came over, firstly to celebrate his nephew’s birthday and secondly to take Li Zixuan and Li Zixin home.With the New Year approaching, it wasn’t appropriate for the two young ladies to stay at the Yan Family’s house indefinitely.“You want to give me land again?”In the Yan Family’s garden, Daohua looked at the deed Xiao Yeyang handed her with a face full of refusal, arms crossed: “Out with it, what’s the reason this time?”Xiao Yeyang was at a loss for words: “Miss Yan, can’t you at least look at what it is before you speak?”Daohua was taken aback, sheepishly said, “It’

The day after Yan Wenkai’s birthday, Xiao Yeyang and Dong Yuanxuan, Su Hongxin, and others were set to leave, and Li Xingnian was also taking the Li sisters, Li Zixuan and Li Zixin, back to the provincial capital on this day—it so happened that they could travel part of the way together.At the dock, Li Zixuan and Li Zixin were holding Daohua’s hand, their faces full of reluctance.“I really don’t want to go home so soon!”Daohua: “I don’t want you to leave either. If I’d known, you really should have come to play with me sooner.”She had already heard from Madam Li that her great-aunt and second-aunt had found a suitable match for Sister Zixuan, and after the New Year, they just waited for Sister Zixuan to have a look before they would finalize the marriage arrangement.In the future, they wouldn’t have many opportunities to play together.On the other side, Yan Wenxiu, Yan Wenkai, and Yan Wentao were also saying their goodbyes to Xiao Yeyang and the others.Xiao Yeyang had intended

“Miss Zhou has arrived!”Upon seeing Zhou Jingwan, the maids and nannies inside Daohua Pavilion immediately approached with smiling faces to pay their respects.Zhou Jingwan nodded, “Where is your young miss?”Lixia laughed, “The young miss is still lounging in bed!”Zhou Jingwan shook her head, “That lazy girl, watch me go and rouse her.” With that, she entered the room and headed straight for the bedroom.Seeing Daohua leaning against the headboard in a little marten fur, lazily flipping through a storybook, Zhou Jingwan couldn’t help but smile, “Ever since Sister Li left, you’ve become increasingly lazy. It’s almost noon, and you’re still not out of bed.”Daohua, upon seeing her, didn’t sit up but instead put down the storybook, patted the edge of the bed, gesturing for Zhou Jingwan to come sit, and then smiled, “Tomorrow’s New Year’s Eve, and here you are with time to run over to my place?”Zhou Jingwan’s expression turned serious, “What, you despise my company now?”Daohua picked

Yan Zhigao spent a whole day preparing before taking Yan Wenxiu to visit the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. After meeting the second master of the Zhou Family, he was led to the Ministry of Personnel to report and wait for an imperial audience.During the wait, neither father nor son had thought about taking the initiative to visit the Yang Residence.After waiting for several days, the Yang Family could no longer restrain themselves. Yang Boyi, accompanied by his legitimate son Yang Hongrui, personally made a visit and finally met with Yan Zhigao and his son.Yan Zhigao and Yang Boyi were classmates, and having not seen each other for many years, they should have had plenty to talk about. Unfortunately, when they met, only awkwardness remained.On the other hand, Yan Wenxiu and his cousin Yang Hongrui were delighted in conversation and even made plans to visit a teahouse to listen to stories another day.Yang Boyi and his son stayed for half a day before leaving. As they

“Zixuan will have her engagement settled on February 22nd. I’ll need to prepare the gifts and make arrangements for the trip to Ningmen Prefecture. I definitely won’t have time to go, so, you’ll go to your uncle’s home on behalf of me,” said Madam Li.Hearing what Madam Li said, Daohua nodded, “Then Mother, when should I go to the provincial capital? Will I be going alone?”Madam Li pondered for a while. She was not comfortable with the idea of her daughter traveling alone, thought for a moment, and said, “Let your fourth brother take a few days off from the Academy and go with you.”“Today is already the eighth day of the lunar month. There are not many days left until the engagement. So, go back to your quarters and pack your things first, and head to the provincial capital in a couple of days.”Daohua had no objections. When Madam Li and the Old Madam Yan heard about it, the latter did not oppose it either.Thus, Daohua began preparing her gift offerings.Looking at the courtyard w

“Let’s follow them first to see what they’re up to, then we can discuss how to proceed,”Daohua said to Dong Yuanyao and Li Zixin.Dong Yuanyao immediately nodded, “Okay!”Li Zixin didn’t have the nerve as big as Daohua and Dong Yuanyao, though she also really wanted to test her future brother-in-law’s character for her sister; her face still showed hesitation.Seeing this, Daohua didn’t want to pressure her and said, “How about you wait here for us? Order a few dishes to eat first, and I’ll go over with Yuanyao to take a look?”Li Zixin hesitated.At this moment, Dong Yuanyao spoke up, “Let’s do it this way. Both Daohua and I are quite skilled, so even if we’re discovered, we can get away in time. Besides, we’re not from the Li Family. Even if the Feng Family finds out about this later, they can’t blame your family.”Daohua felt this made a lot of sense and nodded in agreement immediately.Seeing that both were determined not to give up on following, Li Zixin could only grab Daohua’s

“Who is the girl you’ve provoked now, following us all the way and even chasing us to the theater?”Listening to his friend’s teasing voice, Feng Liangji rolled his eyes in response, “I am not like you, fond of flirting around. I don’t recognize the person below.”Sun Yongyi waved his fan with a smile, “Don’t be so sure. Maybe it’s a young miss from a friendly family who has her eyes on you. Hearing that your engagement is imminent, she couldn’t sit still and perhaps will even find her way to our location later.”Feng Liangji couldn’t be bothered to listen to his annoying friend and turned his gaze to his younger uncle sitting in the seat of honor, sipping his tea with his head down.Speaking of younger uncle…Actually, he was about the same age as Feng Liangji, and Feng was even older by months.“Younger Uncle, I truly…”Feng Liangji knew that the main Feng family greatly valued propriety and personal conduct. He intended to explain, but as soon as he started to speak, he was interru

Before entering the theater, Daohua had supported the idea of using a beauty trap to test Feng Liangji’s loyalty, but after witnessing the reaction of the men in the hall to the singing girl on stage, she hesitated.How many men can withstand temptation?Although her intentions were good, if she really ended up spoiling the marriage her second uncle had personally chosen, would her second uncle and aunt be happy?Would Sister Zixuan’s choice next time definitely be better than Feng Liangji?Dong Yuanyao saw Daohua’s hesitation and didn’t say more, silently drinking her tea.Behind them, the four servants including Wang Manman all breathed a sigh of relief as their young mistress calmed down.During Daohua’s moment of indecision, the song performance on stage came to an end.After finishing her song, the singing girl went down to thank the audience for their appreciation. Everything was normal in the hall, but when she reached a second-floor private room, chaos erupted.The commotion w

“Damn it, are you blind? How dare you lay your hands on anyone you please!”With a cold expression, Defu kicked Du Jitong away, then turned to look at the somewhat disheveled Daohua and Dong Yuanyao, his face betraying a speechless sentiment.He had seen his fair share of ladies acting out of line, like dressing up as men and visiting the Baixi Building, that wasn’t a big deal, but this was the first time he had seen maids fighting a group of men in public.No wonder his master and Master Dong’s faces had already turned ashen.At the moment Defu charged over, Daohua and Dong Yuanyao became somewhat stiff, catching a glimpse of Xiao Yeyang and the others not far away, both of their faces became awkward, cursing their bad luck internally.Why did they have to run into these people here of all places?“What do we do now?” Dong Yuanyao nudged Daohua with her elbow, shivering at the thought of her own brother’s grim expression.Ever since she returned from Jiguang, the discipline at home h

Watching the government officers apprehend people, the playhouse manager stood by, drenched in sweat. He hadn’t participated in the fight and wasn’t among those being seized. Regarding the capture of the playhouse thugs, he dared not utter a word, praying silently in his heart for these nobles to swiftly take their leave.Dong Yuanxuan gave the playhouse manager a glance, his heart filled with annoyance that his sister and Yan’s sister had been beaten in the playhouse. However, considering that his family also shared in the playhouse’s profits, he hesitated for a moment before saying to Xiao Yeyang, “Little Prince, both… both brothers are injured; let’s leave for now.”Xiao Yeyang’s expression became restrained as he nodded, then turned to look at Daohua and Dong Yuanyao, who stood motionless, and said without a hint of emotion, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and follow!”Hearing these words, clearly still tinged with anger, Daohua and Dong Yuanyao showed bitter smiles and, with
