Chapter 1205 - 1027, Hu City
"I never realized it before, but since mother left, I have discovered that her presence really helped me a lot."
After a year, Daohua felt utterly exhausted.
If her mother-in-law were here, not to mention other things, just watching over the three little ones was already a huge help, not to mention that her mother-in-law often gave her valuable advice.
Xiao Yeyang personally wrung a hot towel for Daohua, allowing her to wipe her face: "You’ve worked hard during this time."
As the lady of the Prince Residence, she not only had to maintain relationships with Beijing but also entertain the ladies from Xiliang, and take care of her uncle and three children. This task was no easier than his outside work, both mentally and physically exhausting.
His ability to focus on his endeavors outside was largely thanks to Yiyi managing the household affairs and maintaining good relationships with various parties.
Daohua quickly washed up and went to Nuan Pavilion to check on the children.
Daozi and the twins were lying properly on the kang, each covered with their own little blankets, with Daozi telling them the tale of ’Havoc in Heaven.’
The twins, not knowing if they could understand, stared intently at their brother with wide eyes, occasionally making chirping sounds.
Daohua didn’t enter but watched from the doorway for a while, instructed the nanny and maid to take good care of them, then returned to the inner room and saw Xiao Yeyang flipping through a book at the bedside, she couldn’t help but ask: "What have you been reading these days?"
Xiao Yeyang lifted the warmed quilt, inviting Daohua to get in, then showed her the book.
