The Humble Family’s Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!

Chapter 53: Chapter 46, Staircase_i

Daohua paused after hearing Yan Wenxiu’s words, fell silent for a while, and then said, “Big brother, I don’t want to see our parents fight either, but since the gift was specifically given to me by Uncle, wouldn’t I be letting him down if I took the initiative to refuse it now?”

“And also, Mother is doing this to protect me. If I stand up now and say I don’t want it, wouldn’t I be failing to appreciate her sincere devotion and deep concern?”

This…” Yan Wenxiu was stunned. He only thought about preventing his parents from getting into a dispute, and hadn’t fully considered the other aspects. Hearing Daohua’s words, he acknowledged there was some truth to them and didn’t quite know what to say for the moment.

Seeing their articulate big brother rendered speechless by their eldest sister, Yan Wenkai immediately looked at Daohua with stars in his eyes.

Eldest sister is impressive!

Despite their big brother’s gentle and refined appearance, he was a master of reasoning within the family, and none of his siblings had ever managed to get the better of him in an argument.

Sometimes, when he didn’t want to study, his brother would talk to him in such a way that he began to question his existence, feeling obligated to make a good effort in life just for having been born into it.

Although his brother meant well, being constantly watched over could be very draining for him.

Now, seeing their eldest sister out-talk their big brother, he really wanted to jump up and applaud.

Unfortunately, before he could get too excited, Yan Wenkai received a stern look from Yan Wenxiu and immediately lost his nerve.

Yan Wenxiu looked at Daohua again, “Eldest sister, it’s just a few bolts of fabric, it’s not as serious as you’re making it out to be. I’m sure you don’t want our parents to be unhappy over such a trifle, right?”

These words left Daohua feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

She wasn’t particularly concerned about the fabric that had been given away; to her, clothing just needed to be comfortable. However, she cared about Uncle’s intentions and Madam Li’s consideration for her.

Besides, her stepfather had allocated the new year’s gifts from the Li Family without consulting her mother, which in itself was a form of disrespect towards his wife.

If she stood out now and said she didn’t want the fabric, she could defuse the situation, but doing so would be at the expense of slapping Madam Li’s face.

Seeing Daohua remain silent and not speaking, Yan Wenxiu frowned and glanced toward the main gate, noticing figures approaching. He worried the situation would escalate.please visit ” sitestorys(.)c0m ” maybe y0u will enj0y the captivating sh0rt st0ries.

Currently, it was just a small conflict between Yan Zhigao and his wife. As the saying goes, “A quarrel between a married couple is nothing serious, and they’ll make up at the bed end.” As long as the issue didn’t leave the main courtyard and they closed the door, they could resolve it any way they saw fit.

But if people from other courtyards got involved, things would get complicated.

His father always cared about his face; once he felt embarrassed in front of family members, his mother’s life would become difficult.

Yan Wenxiu spoke again, “Eldest sister, it’s almost the end of the year, and this is your first time celebrating it with everyone. You don’t want to make everyone unhappy, do you?”

At these words, Daohua immediately raised her head and retorted coldly, “Big brother, that’s an unreasonable thing to say. How is it that I’m the one making everyone unhappy? Please, big brother, explain the reason so that your sister can listen attentively.”

Yan Wenkai saw his brother and sister leaning towards an argument and quickly interjected, “Ah, big brother, I think grandmother is watching over our parents’ matter. We, as their children, shouldn’t get involved, should we?” Saying this, he didn’t wait for Yan Wenxiu to look over; instead, he turned to Daohua, “Eldest sister, no offense, but as the eldest brother is like a father, mind your manner of speaking.” Having said that, he made gestures to Daohua, signaling her to apologize to Yan Wenxiu.

Daohua saw it, pursed her lips, and turned her head away.

Yan Wenkai glanced at his sister who was unwilling to apologize and then at his big brother, who seemed to be angered, and felt a massive headache coming on.

What should he do?

He didn’t dare to upset his brother, and he couldn’t handle his sister; being stuck in the middle was so uncomfortable!

At this moment, the first group of people entered the main courtyard.

It was the Wu Family, holding a bolt of brocade in her hands.

She glanced at the three Yan siblings and quickly stepped into the main room.

Big brother, I came to say thanks. I’ve never seen such beautiful brocade before; thank you for letting me gain such experience. However, I must return this brocade to you.”

“Big brother, don’t rush, listen to me until I’m finished.”

“Being able to marry into the Yan Family is the greatest fortune of my life. My family is poor, yet big brother and sister-in-law have never looked down on me, and they always think of me—I am very grateful for that.”

“But everyone knows their own situation; I’m used to rough work, so wearing clothes made of such material doesn’t suit me. Fortunately, I’ve now followed Mother and the head of the household to the city, and I don’t need to do anything on a regular basis. I can take good care of myself, and I believe that in the future I will certainly be a match for such clothes.”

“However, I’ve heard that fashionable materials must not be kept, as they become outdated if you do. So I thought, why not use them to make clothes for Daohua first? In the future, if there’s something better, whether sister-in-law gives it to me or not, I will shamelessly come to ask for it.”

Wu Family’s words were heard clearly by the three siblings from the Yan Family, Daohua, standing by the door.

The three of them exhaled a sigh of relief.

“Who would have thought that third auntie, who usually doesn’t talk much, could actually speak so persuasively?”

Yan Wenkai looked astonished, and so did Yan Wenxiu.

Listen to that; she managed to protect Dad’s dignity, and expressed the third branch’s gratitude towards the main branch.

His dad and mom must be incredibly moved right now.

Daohua glanced sidelong at the two: “Don’t underestimate her, alright? Third uncle and third auntie just aren’t slick, but they’re really the kindest at heart.”

At this moment, the people from the second branch arrived.

Madam Sun, along with Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile, entered the main courtyard. Seeing Daohua and her siblings standing outside, she let Yihuan and Yile stay outside as well while she herself went into the main room with two lengths of brocade.

“Hmph!”

Yan Yile looked displeased and cold-snorted at Daohua.

She genuinely liked the two pieces of material their uncle had given to them. If made into clothes, Xu Keke and others would be so envious of her.

But now, because of big sister, her clothes were ruined.

At that moment, Daohua’s attention was all on the room. As for Yan Yile’s snort, she merely gave it a fleeting glance.

Yan Yihuan gave Yan Yile a warning glare the moment after she made a sound.

Afterward, although Yan Yile still looked displeased, snubbed, she did not make another sound.

Inside the room, Madam Sun spoke even more beautifully.

“Big brother, I absolutely adore this material. I was ready to have it cut into clothes right away, but my daughters Yihuan and Yile wouldn’t agree.”

“Guess why?”

“It’s not that they didn’t like it, but they felt that Daohua has been in the city for so long, and they haven’t given her any presents, so they thought, why not ‘present a Buddha with borrowed flowers’, use this material to make two sets of clothes, and give them to Daohua as gifts?”

“When I heard that, I immediately raised both hands in agreement. That’s why I’ve come with the material to find sister-in-law. We were thinking of making them ourselves, but sister-in-law’s taste is unmatched by me, so the tailoring of this material must trouble sister-in-law; you must dress up our dear Daohua beautifully.”

“Yihuan and Yile are very sensible,” said Yan Zhigao’s voice.

Outside the room, Daohua, Yan Wenxiu, and Yan Wenkai all turned their eyes to Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile, listening to the conversation inside.

Yan Yihuan heard her uncle’s excessive praise from inside the room and felt a bit embarrassed, bowing her head with cheeks and ears turning somewhat red.

Yan Yile, on the other hand, lifted her head proudly upon hearing herself being complimented and cast a haughty sideways glance at Daohua.

Thanks to Wu Family and Madam Sun’s setup, the atmosphere in the master bedroom improved a lot.

Just when everyone thought the matter would rest at that, Aunt Lin came over with Yan Yishuang..
