Chapter 135
135 Indulgence
After the first gossip was dropped, many more were poked out.
A gossip conference finally turned into a revelation conference.
Everyone was arguing until their faces were red. If not for the Eagle Guards watching from the side, they would definitely have started fighting.
Not to mention Yu Niaoniao, even Granny Xiu Yan, who was an old lady in the residence, was stunned.
She did not expect there to be so much gossip hidden in a small county palace.
At this moment, Yu Niaoniao, Granny Xiu Yan, and Dang Gui seemed to have become quails in a melon field, eating melons happily.
By the time the revelations ended, it was almost noon.
Yu Niaoniao stood up and stretched. “It’s getting late. I should go to the Justice Department.”
Because of the betrothal, Duke Lang, who was never absent, took half a day off. As his personal assistant, Yu Niaoniao could also rest for half a day.
Granny Xiu Yan hurriedly asked, “It’s already noon. Why don’t you eat before going out?”
“No need. I’ll eat outside today.”
After saying that, Yu Niaoniao specially patted her purse. There were 120 taels of silver inside.
Now that she was rich, she had to reward herself.
Dang Gui looked at her lady eagerly.
She really wanted to go out and eat something delicious.
Yu Niaoniao received the longing gaze from Dang Gui and hooked her little finger at her.
“Let’s go eat outside.”
Dang Gui’s eyes lit up. “Okay!”
Granny Xiu Yan quickly ordered someone to prepare the carriage.
When Yu Niaoniao walked out of the residence with Dang Gui, she happened to see Duke Lang return.
He sent the betrothal gift to the Yu Residence and chatted with Yu Kangtai for a while before leaving. Out of courtesy, Yu Kangtai still wanted to keep him for a meal, but he refused.
He dismounted and strode over to Yu Niaoniao.
“Where are you guys going?”
Yu Niaoniao said, “To the Justice Department. I’ll find a restaurant on the way to settle my lunch.”
Granny Xiu Yan seized the opportunity to speak quickly.
“His Highness is going to the Justice Department this afternoon. Why don’t the two of you go together?”
After saying that, she did not forget to give Duke Lang a look, indicating for him to agree quickly. This was a great opportunity to bury the hatchet with Miss Yu.
Xiao Juan did not like to eat outside, but he was worried about Yu Niaoniao going out alone, so he nodded.
“Yes, let’s.”
Yu Niaoniao did not think too much about it and immediately said, “Then let’s go!”
Granny Xiu Yan immediately got someone to take away the horse that Duke Lang had ridden back. This way, Duke Lang could only ride in the same carriage as Miss Yu. The two of them would have close contact again.
Yu Niaoniao walked towards the carriage with Dang Gui.
Xiao Juan was about to follow when he was stopped by Granny Xiu Yan.
Granny Xiu Yan instructed in a low voice.
“Your Highness, don’t mention money later, let alone use your tricks on Miss Yu. Girls are meant to be coaxed. Whatever Miss Yu wanted to do, just satisfy her. Remember, the most important thing is to make her happy. Everything else is just a small thing.”
Xiao Juan frowned slightly. Clearly, he felt that it was not good to indulge someone like this.
However, when he thought of her sincere confession this morning, he felt that it was fine to indulge her appropriately. After all, she was unique and deserved special treatment.
So he nodded slightly to show that he understood.
Granny Xiu Yan smiled in relief.
She watched as Duke Lang got into the carriage and cheered for him.
Go, Your Highness! You must have a positive relationship with Miss Yu as soon as possible!
