225 Sister

The moment Lu Yao appeared, Yu Niaoniao noticed him.

This person’s attire was quite particular, and his words and actions were very elegant. Clearly, he was a handsome man that could only be raised by a wealthy family.

When he said that he was going to Liaodong County, Yu Niaoniao finally could not help but speak, “Are you from Liaodong County?”

Lu Yao looked at her and sized her up imperceptibly. He nodded slightly.

“Yes. I’ve been away studying for years. Now I’m ready to go home to my parents.”

He paused before continuing.

“You don’t look like you’re from Liaodong.”

Yu Niaoniao lowered her eyes and her voice was very low.

“I’m from Bashu. Because of an accident at home, I have nowhere to go. I can only go to Liaodong County with my brother and sister to rely on my family. However, we’ve never been to Liaodong County before, so I don’t know what we’ll do when we get there.”

In order to show her sadness, she deliberately wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve. She looked pitiful as if she were about to cry at any moment.

Lu Yao comforted her. “People have joys and sorrows. Please don’t be sad. If you trust me, you can come with us. I’m very familiar with the terrain of Liaodong County. I can send you anywhere you want.”

Yu Niaoniao was pleasantly surprised. “Really? That’s great! Young Master Lu is really a good person.”

Lu Yao asked, “How should I address you?”

“Yu Niaoniao.”

Lu Yao smiled. “It’s a beautiful name.”

Yu Niaoniao asked, “May I know your name, Young Master Lu?”

“My surname is Lu and my name is Yao.”

When Lo Pingsha walked downstairs with his bag, his heart skipped a beat when he saw Yu Niaoniao chatting happily with a strange man.

Was the County Princess going to cheat on Duke Lang?

Then he shook his head and shook off this unrealistic guess.

No, no. The County Princess was willing to take a huge risk to look for Duke Lang in Liaodong County. How could she have an affair with another man?

Yu Niaoniao caught a glimpse of Lo Pingsha walking over. Before he could speak, she spoke first.

“Brother, come over quickly. Let me introduce you. This is Young Master Lu Yao. He was from Liaodong County and was preparing to return. He happens to be on the way. He said he could give us a lift.”

Lo Pingsha quickly reacted. Yu Niaoniao was planning to use Lu Yao as a cover to sneak into Liaodong County.

That was indeed a good idea.

With Lu Yao, a native of Liaodong County, not only could they sneak into Liaodong County more smoothly, but they could also ask Lu Yao about the situation in Liaodong County.

Hence, Lo Pingsha immediately cupped his hands at Lu Yao. “Thank you, Young Master Lu.”

Lu Yao helped him up. “It’s fate that we met by chance. You don’t have to be so polite.”

At this moment, the official walked over with a bag and said respectfully.

“Young Master Lu, this is the dry food you wanted. Your carriage has been prepared. You can set off at any time.”

The little pageboy took the bundle from the official.

Lu Yao asked Yu Niaoniao if she had a carriage.

Yu Niaoniao did not know if Duke Lang had left a carriage for her.

She was pondering over how to answer when Lo Pingsha spoke.

“We have a carriage.”

Lu Yao smiled again. “That’s more convenient.”

The little attendant and Lo Pingsha went to the backyard to drive the carriage, while Yu Niaoniao, Dang Gui, and Lu Yao stood at the entrance of the courier station and waited.

When he saw Lo Pingsha’s carriage, Lu Yao was clearly stunned.

He couldn’t help but ask, “Why is there another donkey?”

Yu Niaoniao was also a little surprised. She did not expect Duke Lang to not only leave her a carriage but also Gray.

Gray had eaten and drunk his fill at the station for the past two days and had gained weight. He was now a veritable fat little donkey.

Yu Niaoniao touched its ears and explained to Lu Yao.

“This is my donkey. Its name is Gray. Because I’ve developed feelings for it, we always bring it around.”

Lu Yao made a show of understanding.

Yu Niaoniao and Dang Gui got into the carriage. Lo Pingsha was in charge of driving.

Gray followed the carriage. It didn’t need to carry goods or people. It took his time and its little tail wagged gaily. From time to time, it would turn its head and bite off a leaf by the side of the road. He looked relaxed as he chewed his leaf slowly.

In the cart, Dang Gui explained what had happened when she met Lu Yao yesterday.

Yu Niaoniao stroked her chin thoughtfully.

“That Young Master Lu seems to be very interested in you.”

Dang Gui looked confused. “Is he?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “It’s obvious.”

Dang Gui thought about it seriously. “He’s probably interested in the Texas Chicken I ate yesterday.”

At this, she pursed her lips and whispered.

“Don’t think I didn’t notice. His eyes were almost glued to my bowl yesterday. He must have wanted to eat. Hmph. I didn’t have enough for myself. Of course, I wouldn’t share it with him!”

...

Yu Niaoniao wanted to laugh. “That Young Master Lu doesn’t look like someone who hasn’t had good food. He won’t be so greedy, right?”

Dang Gui said matter-of-factly.

“That depends on what dish it is. If it was an ordinary dish, he probably wouldn’t care. But that was Miss’ Texas Chicken. It was a peerless delicacy that could not be bought outside. He must be craving it!”

Yu Niaoniao poked her forehead. “Do you think everyone is as gluttonous as you are?”

Dang Gui giggled. “Isn’t it all because Miss’ culinary skills are too good? I want to eat more.”

Yu Niaoniao reminded her.

“We have to hide our identities. Now that we’re siblings, you have to call me Sister in the future, understand?”

Dang Gui asked in disbelief as if she had received a dream reward.

“Can I really call you Sister?”

Ever since she woke up, she had lost all her memories. The only person she could trust was Yu Niaoniao.

She really treated Yu Niaoniao as her family.

...

However, she also knew that Yu Niaoniao was the daughter of an official and later became the County Princess. She was not someone a person of unknown origin could approach.

She could only treat Yu Niaoniao as her sister in her heart. She had never thought that she could really call her sister.

Yu Niaoniao smiled and said, “Of course.”

Dang Gui was overjoyed.

She threw her arms around Yu Niaoniao and shouted excitedly.

“Sister, Sister, Sister!”

Yu Niaoniao hurriedly reached out to support herself and maintain her balance to avoid falling.

She responded helplessly.

“Once is enough. It’s not like I can’t hear you.”

Dang Gui refused to stop. “Sister, you’re my sister from now on!”

Even if it was just an identity, Dang Gui was still extremely happy.

She was like a child who had never eaten candy and had suddenly tasted delicious candy. She was so excited that she wished she could show it off to the world.

The carriage stopped halfway to rest.

Dang Gui led Gray to the river to drink water. Unexpectedly, Lu Yao chased after them.

“I’m going to the river to wash my hands. Let’s do it together.”

Because she was in a good mood, Dang Gui gave him a big smile this time. “Sure.”

Lu Yao was clearly stunned when he saw her smile.

He blurted out, “You smile like someone I remember.”
