THE HUMBLE FAMILY'S DAUGHTER HAS A SPATIAL POCKET!

Chapter 558: Chapter 511, Deciphering (Two in One Large Chapter)_1

The Zhuang Family’s incident had a profound impact on Xiao Yeyang and also made him feel a great sense of crisis about his own future with Daohua.

His situation was worse than that of Master Zhuang; the Zhuang Family could only spread rumors, but the Imperial Family behind him could take Daohua’s life and those of the entire Yan Family at any moment.

“Only useful people have the right to speak and act autonomously…”

Xiao Yeyang repeated this phrase to himself.

The Imperial Family is the least sentimental place, with numerous princes and princesses. Despite the seemingly decent treatment from his imperial uncle, if he foolishly counted on that slight affection to take charge of his own marriage, he would be deluding himself.

If he wanted to secure autonomy over his marriage, he needed substantial skills to impress his imperial uncle. With his support, everything else would be easy.

The incident also shook Daohua deeply. Ancient marriage customs emphasized matching social status, parental orders, and the matchmaker’s words. She had been psychologically prepared for this, but witnessing a young couple being driven to die for love still left her feeling desolate.

Thinking of her own future marriage, Daohua couldn’t help but look towards Xiao Yeyang, her eyes displaying a sense of bewilderment.

Would they have a happy ending?

Not long after, they returned to Taohua Temple.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, Gu Jian noticed something off about the pair; his little disciple was usually cheerful, and although his nephew’s mood wasn’t very high due to annoying matters in Beijing, he was generally more relaxed with his little disciple’s company. So why did they both look so troubled after just one outing today?

Elder Gu noticed as well and immediately summoned De Fu and Wang Manman to inquire.

The two of them took turns describing what they had encountered in town.

After listening, Elder Gu and Gu Jian exchanged a silent look.

Elder Gu sighed, “They must have been scared.”

Gu Jian looked at his sister incredulously and dismissed De Fu and Wang Manman with a wave, “Those two kids scare that easily? Hmph, it seems to me that they are reflecting on their own situation from what happened to others.”

Elder Gu quickly understood and nodded, “Indeed, the Yan Family’s social status is somewhat lower. Xiao Yeyang cares so much about Daohua; it’s no wonder he is anxious.”

“But Xiao Yeyang’s worry is understandable since anyone with clear eyes can see his intentions. But Daohua… Could it be that she also cares for Xiao Yeyang?”

Gu Jian was speechless, “Sister, how little regard do you have for Xiao Yeyang? After all, he is a member of the Imperial Family, with a good appearance and demeanor, and he’s so attentive and considerate. What’s wrong with him being favored by a young girl?”

Elder Gu was at a loss for words, “I just thought Daohua was a sensible and clear-headed girl. Have you forgotten? Previously she deliberately avoided Xiao Yeyang, probably because she felt the gap in their status was too great and there wouldn’t be a future, which is why she distanced herself.”

Gu Jian sighed, “Matters of the heart are not that easily controlled. They’ve grown up together and shared many experiences; naturally, their hearts have drawn closer.”

Elder Gu, “But what do we do now? We can’t let the two kids worry like this indefinitely.”

Gu Jian fell silent for a moment, “Let them worry. Not everything in this world goes smoothly. Experiencing hardships will be good for their future.”

Inside the hall, Xiao Yeyang laid out the intercepted notes and his analysis for all to see.

Daohua picked them up and looked them over, asking as she did, “Have you discovered anything?”

Xiao Yeyang shook his head, “Nothing.” He said, and then handed another note to Daohua, “This is from Master Wu. I had hoped to see if there were any similarities between the two notes, but unfortunately, they are just ordinary greetings, with no hints to be found.”

Daohua placed the two notes side by side to compare, but indeed there was nothing in common.

Elder Gu brought in fresh flowers from Daohua Manor and had Caiju serve the two of them tea and pastries. She sat to one side, arranging the flowers while watching the two of them discuss and analyze with a pleased smile.

Gu Jian also came in, sat by the door, and continued to sort his herbs.

The two elders kept busy with their own tasks, listening to Daohua and Xiao Yeyang’s murmurs, both wearing serene smiles on their faces.

“What are you writing?”

Seeing Daohua suddenly pick up a pen and start scribbling on a piece of paper, Xiao Yeyang immediately leaned over to look.

Without looking up, Daohua said, “These two messages have no connection on the surface, but…” She pushed the two slips of paper towards Xiao Yeyang, “Do you see? The characters are combined characters, each with two components.”
