Chapter 264 Birthday Gift
After taking a bath, Daohua and Dong Yuanyao fell into bed together.
"I really want to keep you in my house for a longer time, but it's a pity that you have to go home to meet your elders." Dong Yuanyao said regretfully while lying on the bed.
Daohua turned over to face Dong Yuanyao and said with a smile: "There will be many opportunities in the future. If you are free, you can come to Xingzhou to play with me, and I will take you to my village."
Dong Yuanyao became interested: "I heard that you have a village specially used for planting flowers?"
Daohua nodded: "That village is not big, but it is enough to maintain the normal operation of my flower shop and rouge shop."
Dong Yuanyao: "She must be very beautiful, right?"
Daohua: "Of course, I collected all kinds of flowers, many of which I got from Grandpa Jingwan."
Dong Yuanyao turned over: "I must go and take a look when I have time. In the past two years, my mother has also begun to teach me how to manage the house. If it is not difficult to manage, I will also plant some in my farm."
"Are you usually busy at home?"
"I've been busy, especially in the past two years. In addition to going to class, I have to follow my mother to handle general affairs, which makes me have less time to play. My mother told me to study hard, otherwise I will suffer a lot when I go to my husband's house.
."
"I'm also very busy at home."
"Why do we want to get married? Isn't it good to stay at home all the time?"
"No matter how you choose, I don't want to marry."
"Me too..."
The two chatted nonchalantly, and slowly fell asleep while talking.
When the maid waiting outside heard no sound, she walked in quietly. Seeing that the two of them were asleep, she helped tuck the quilt in, and then went to sleep outside.
Early the next morning, the sky was slightly bright, and before the maid screamed, Daohua woke up. As soon as she moved, Dong Yuanyao also opened her eyes.
Dong Yuanyao covered her mouth and yawned: "I slept so soundly last night."
Daohua nodded: "Me too."
Dong Yuanyao got out of bed quickly: "Come on, let's go out and do some activities. I didn't bring a sword when I was in Xingyun Mansion before. I'll dance for you today."
Daohua lay half-tilted on the bed and said with a smile: "Okay, let me see the grace of Dong Daxiao."
Seeing that Daohua was still a little sleepy at the moment, Dong Yuanyao smiled and stepped forward to lift her chin: "Beauty, wait until I take you to explore the world."
Daohua slapped Dong Yuanyao's hand away and squinted, "Who did you learn this habit of teasing people from?"
Dong Yuanyao shrugged: "Self-taught! My mother said, it's lucky that I come from a girl's family, otherwise, I would be a wanderer."
Daohua also got up and got out of bed: "Auntie's words are very good."
After that, the two of them put on loose shorts and went to the yard. Daohua first watched Dong Yuanyao dance with the sword for a while, and then practiced whipping for a while. After dawn, she went back to the room to wash up.
As soon as I finished washing, the maid came in with several sets of clothes.
"These are autumn clothes that Madam just made for Miss Yan. I asked her to bring them over for Miss Yan to choose."
Daohua looked at the clothes. They were all red, bright red, pink, and tender red. She was immediately surprised and said: "Do you like red so much?"
Dong Yuanyao picked up a bright red dress and compared it to Daohua: "Yes, don't you like it?"
Daohua: "...It's not that I don't like it, it's just that I don't think I can wear it."
Dong Yuanyao looked at the rice flowers: "Yes, you are still too young, so you should wear this Xiangfei color suit, which is lighter in color."
Hearing this, Daohua was speechless, as if she was very emotional.
Soon, both of them changed their clothes with the help of the maid.
"I have never worn such a pink color before." Daohua said while adjusting her clothes.
Dong Yuanyao turned around and looked at it.
I saw that Daohua was wearing a Hunan concubine-colored flowered jacket and a moon-white plum blossom pleated skirt. The whole person looked pink and pretty.
“Good-looking!”
Daohua also took a look at Dong Yuanyao, who was wearing a pink double-breasted printed jacket and a pink pleated skirt with flowers. She looked bright and luxurious: "You look good too."
Wang Man'er and the Dong family's maid stood aside and watched, smiling: "The two girls stand together, they look like a pair of sisters."
Dong Yuanyao immediately took Daohua's arm and said, "We are not just sisters anymore. Let's go to the main courtyard and show my mother."
Daohua nodded, and then was pulled out of the room by Dong Yuanyao.
When she just walked out of the hospital door, Dong Yuanyao stopped and said, "Wait for me, I'll get something." After saying that, she turned around and ran away.
"Slow down, don't be in a hurry!"
Daohua gave instructions, and then began to look around the scenery in the backyard of Dong Mansion.
It is now the end of September, but the flowers in the yard are still in full bloom.
Daohua: "These flowers are blooming really well."
The maid of the Dong family smiled and said: "The uncle is a flower lover, so there are many flowers planted in the house. Every time the uncle returns to the house, he will personally take care of the flowers in the yard."
Daohua stretched out her hand to fiddle with the golden chrysanthemums in the yard, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Brother Dong to be a person who cherishes flowers."
At the other end of the yard, Dong Yuanxuan and his boy walked quickly towards his sister's yard. When they were about to reach the entrance of the yard, they saw a pretty pink figure admiring the flowers in the yard, and they stopped immediately.
Although flowers are beautiful, they are not as beautiful as the smile of a beautiful woman.
Looking at the rice flowers with eyes closed and smelling the fragrance, Dong Yuanxuan's lips turned up involuntarily.
After smelling the fragrance of the flowers, Daohua put down the flowers in her hands. She turned her eyes and saw Dong Yuanxuan standing not far away. She immediately smiled and said: "Brother Dong."
Looking at that bright and brilliant smile, Dong Yuanxuan's eyes flickered, and he was stunned for a moment before walking over with a smile: "Why are you here alone?"
Daohua smiled and said: "Yuan Yao went back to the house to get her things. I'm waiting for her here. Are you looking for her? I'll call her." She said and started to walk into the yard.
"Don't!"
Dong Yuanxuan hurriedly stopped Daohua: "I'm not looking for Yuan Yao."
Daohua: "...Then you passed by here?"
Dong Yuanxuan shook his head, took a long box from the hand of the boy behind him, opened it and said: "When you celebrated your birthday in August, we were in Xingyun Mansion, and we didn't have time to prepare a gift for you. Now we are home.
, I’ll just make it up for you.” He said and handed over the box in his hand.
He came here early in the morning specifically to give gifts.
Looking at the long whip in the box, Daohua looked surprised and reached out to touch it: "This is too expensive!" She has been practicing whipping for some time, and now she can tell the quality of the whip.
Dong Yuanxuan put the box on Daohua's hand: "This is a birthday gift for you. It's too outrageous for you to say this."
Daohua held the box, and although her expression was a little hesitant, it could be seen that Dong Yuanxuan was determined to give it away, so she could only thank her: "Thank you, Brother Dong."
Seeing that she accepted it, Dong Yuanxuan smiled: "As long as you like it."
Daohua immediately smiled and said: "I like it very much."
Dong Yuanxuan looked into the yard: "Just wait for Yuan Yao, I'll go find the young prince and others first."
Daohua nodded, and after Dong Yuanxuan left, she looked at the whip of the box, closed the lid, and handed it to Wang Maner to hold.
At this time, Dong Yuanyao came out: "I just heard you talking to someone, who is it?"
Daohua: "Your brother."
Dong Yuanyao was stunned for a moment: "What does he want from me?"
Daohua smiled: "He's not looking for you, he's here to give me a birthday gift." As she said that, she pointed to the box in Wang Man'er's hand.
"What is it?" Dong Yuanyao opened the box with a curious look on his face and saw the long whip inside. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "My grandfather gave this whip to my brother. He said it was seized from the nomadic nobles in the north.
of."
Daohua said quickly: "Since your grandfather gave it to your brother, I can't take it, so you should return it for me."
Dong Yuanyao quickly held down the rice flower and said with a smile: "How can I take back the things I gave you? Just take it. My brother must have seen you practicing whipping and happened to have a good whip in your hand, so he gave it to you.
I’ve given it to you, don’t be embarrassed, just take it.”
Daohua saw that Dong Yuanyao said it casually, but she didn't say that she wanted to return it.
