The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!

Chapter 182: Chapter 164, I Like Eating Pig_1

After that group of lavishly dressed young masters left, Xiao Yeyang’s face remained gloomy. Despite Daohua’s attempts at cracking jokes and making everyone laugh several times, she couldn’t manage to elicit a smile from him.

When the young master is not pleased, nobody else could truly enjoy the lantern festival.

Everyone stood silently in front of the railing, not speaking or interacting, creating a somewhat stagnant atmosphere.

The Li siblings were experiencing such a scene for the first time, and were so nervous they hardly dared to breathe.

Seeing this, Daohua felt somewhat helpless. It would be such a pity to spend the Lantern Festival like this.

“Wow, that flower lantern is so pretty, what kind of flower is that? I feel like I’ve never seen it before!”

Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, who was grasping at straws for conversation, and followed her pointing finger with his eyes, saying discontentedly, “What backcountry wild person did you spring from, not even recognizing an Epiphyllum Lamp?”

Daohua’s mouth twitched from Xiao Yeyang’s sharp tongue.

Forget it, considering his current mood, she decided not to take it up with him.

“I haven’t grown that flower before, so it’s normal that I don’t recognize it, right!”

Xiao Yeyang just hummed and didn’t say anything more.

Seeing that he had fallen silent again, Daohua felt a bit weary. She looked around, then smiled and said, “The float will be here soon, and didn’t you just say that when it arrives under the Chong Building, everyone has to release their flower lanterns together?”

“I now find the idea of releasing flower lanterns to pray for blessings quite interesting, but a pity, I don’t have a lantern. How about, you accompany me down to buy one, just like that Epiphyllum Lamp, I think it’s really pretty.”

Xiao Yeyang turned his head to look at Daohua and seeing the sparkly expectation in her eyes, his heart softened. “You’re the most troublesome!”

Upon hearing this, Daohua’s smile deepened, curving her eyes.

Seeing her beaming smile, Xiao Yeyang’s mood improved significantly and his tense face softened. “Let’s go, a quick trip, lest we miss the time to release the lanterns.”

Daohua immediately turned to the others, “Does everyone have a flower lantern? If not, we can go down and buy one now.”

Dong Yuanxuan replied with a smile, “Sure, I’ve prepared a lantern, but I’m not completely satisfied with it. This is a good opportunity to see if there’s another one I like.”

With that, the group bustled down the stairs.

The crowd hadn’t walked far when they began selecting lanterns on either side under the Chong Building.

“Oh, they have masks here too!”

Daohua casually picked up a pink pig mask and held it in front of her face, waggling it in front of Xiao Yeyang, “How about this, isn’t it cute?”

Xiao Yeyang glanced at the pig mask, his expression slightly changing. “You like pigs, huh?”

Daohua put down the mask, shaking her head, “I like to eat pigs.”

Xiao Yeyang’s face stiffened. “…”

Behind him, Defu, who was extremely tense just a moment ago, suddenly started shaking his shoulders.

Dong Yuanxuan looked over and saw Defu trying to hold in his laughter. He immediately laughed and asked, “Defu, what’s so amusing?”

With Xiao Yeyang shooting a dangerous look in his direction, Defu’s face immediately straightened: “Master Dong, you saw wrong, my shoulder just cramped up.”

He definitely wouldn’t tell anyone that their young master was born in the year of the pig.

Daohua gave everyone a puzzled look, then continued to sort through the masks on the stall. After searching for a while, she picked up the previous pig mask again and addressed the Li sisters, “Cousins, let’s buy a mask, it’s fun to wear one.”

Li Zixin immediately smiled and said, “Yes, on our way home, we can wear the masks and have mom and dad guess who we are.”

Hearing this, Yan Wenxiu and the Li brothers exchanged a speechless look.

Please, the three of them have different outfits, different heights; even with masks on, it’s easy to tell who is who, right?

However, seeing the three sisters so enthusiastic, they didn’t say much.

When Xiao Yeyang saw Daohua with the pig mask in hand again, the corner of his mouth twitched, and pretending to be casual, he asked, “The pastries you’ve made before also frequently had pig shapes, so, you have this much of a fondness for pigs?”

Without hesitation, Daohua replied, “I think pigs are the happiest among the twelve zodiac animals, they eat and sleep, sleep and eat, they don’t have any troubles. Although they end up as the main dish, they enjoyed life, didn’t they?”

“Plus, don’t you think pork is delicious? It can be used in so many dishes, is easy to pair with other ingredients, and it’s affordable, everyone can enjoy it, how populist!”

Xiao Yeyang’s cheek twitched severely.

Forget it, he shouldn’t have asked her; two out of three sentences she says are about food.

After a while, everyone was in a much better mood, and the atmosphere became lively. Regardless of whether they wanted it or not, each person had a flower lantern in hand.

In the meantime, they came across a shop hosting a lantern riddle game and all joined in with great interest.

Daohua looked at a few lantern riddles, shrank her neck, and quickly retreated to the back.

She was not as smart as other transmigrated women, nor did she have vast knowledge to shine during the guessing of lantern riddles. She could not guess any of the riddles before her.

While Daohua was eagerly watching her elder brother sweep through the store’s riddles, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Yeyang from the corner of her eye.

Why did this guy leave without saying a word?

Without thinking too much, Daohua quickly followed after him.

“Hey, what are you doing? Everyone is still guessing riddles!”

As Xiao Yeyang turned around, he saw Daohua clutching his sleeve, her face full of curiosity, and he raised his eyebrow slightly, “I’m going to do something big, do you dare to keep up?”

Daohua: “…What’s there to be afraid of?”

“Let’s go!”

Xiao Yeyang tilted his head and quickly turned into another street with Daohua.

Seeing that Defu followed along, Daohua wasn’t too worried, but felt it wasn’t nice not to tell the others, “Shouldn’t we tell Brother Dong and the others?”

Xiao Yeyang snorted, “If we tell them, the thing won’t get done.”

Upon hearing this, Daohua grew even more curious, “What exactly is it?”

Just then, sounds of a commotion and shouting came from the street ahead.

“They’re hitting someone, hitting someone!”

The surrounding people all ran towards the commotion.

Xiao Yeyang grabbed Daohua’s wrist, “Hold on to me tight, don’t get lost!”

Daohua nodded, and then was pulled by Xiao Yeyang through the crowd.

It was them!

The group of brocade-clad young masters who had wanted to enter the Chong Building but were driven away!

At that moment, those people were beating a middle-aged merchant.

The middle-aged merchant was beaten to the ground, unable to even cry out for mercy.

Daohua’s eyebrows furrowed immediately, and looking at Xiao Yeyang beside her, she could tell he was here for these people, his expression darkening even more.

“Stop hitting him, you’ll kill the man!”

One of them shouted.

Then, the others stopped their punching and kicking.

“Hmph, blind fool, it would be better if he died!”

The leader of the brocade-clad young masters gave the motionless middle-aged merchant another kick before leaving with a cold snort.

“What are you going to do?”

Seeing that Xiao Yeyang seemed to want to chase after them, Daohua quickly grabbed him, not waiting for him to say anything, she hurriedly said, “I know those people are annoying, but the other side has too many people. We are only three, and the difference between us and them is too great. It’s unwise to rush in now.”

“Let’s go back and get Brother Dong and the others, call them over, and then we can settle the score with them!”

Xiao Yeyang saw that Daohua was not trying to stop him, and his expression softened a bit, “Don’t worry, I’m not that foolish to face them head-on. Right now, following them is just to see where they are staying.”

Daohua looked suspicious, holding her grip on his sleeve without loosening, “Really?”

Xiao Yeyang was speechless, “True as pure gold, do I look like an idiot to you?”

Finally, Daohua said no more.

The three of them hurried after the group.

As they passed by the beaten merchant, seeing that no one dared to step forward to help, Daohua tugged on Xiao Yeyang.

Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, who showed a look of distress, and despite his initial reluctance, he turned his head and signaled to Defu.

Immediately, Defu walked over to a nearby store with a smile, and it was unclear what he said to the shopkeeper, but soon, someone carried the merchant to a nearby medical hall.

Seeing this, Daohua immediately beamed with a broad smile.
