THE HUMBLE FAMILY'S DAUGHTER HAS A SPATIAL POCKET!

Watching Yan Zhigao hurry away, the Yan Family also lost their appetite.

After returning to her own courtyard, Daohua threw herself into the study room, rummaging through for a while until she found a map of Jiguang Province. After examining the map, she frowned and said, “Dayuan River also flows through Jiguang Province. If the dyke were to breach, how many people would suffer from the disaster?”

Wang Manman, Guyu, and Lixia were also wearing worried expressions. “Miss, if the dyke in Jiguang Province breaches, it won’t affect us here, will it?”

Daohua was silent for a while. “Jiguang Province is upstream from Zhongzhou Province. If there’s a breach upstream, there will be some impact downstream. However, the distance to us is quite far, so there’s no need to be overly concerned.”

Wang Manman frowned, “Why would the dykes suddenly breach?”

Guyu scoffed, “Why else? Not every official is as diligent and caring for the people as our master. The officials in Jiguang Province must have embezzled the silver meant for dyke construction.”

Daohua glanced at Guyu, “It’s one thing to say such things in the courtyard, but you must not speak recklessly outside.”

Guyu immediately bowed her head, “Miss, I understand.”

Without saying much more, Daohua warned Guyu for two reasons: she didn’t want her to speak recklessly and cause trouble, and from what they had seen when their foster father took over the governance of Xingzhou, even if some officials wanted to do something concrete, if their funds were withheld or delayed by higher-ups, they were powerless.

You can’t condemn everyone with the same brush.

In the following days, Yan Zhigao was extremely busy, leaving early and returning late, barely seen around.

“Mother, what has father been busy with these past few days?”
