"Mother, those pigeons were given to me by Big Brother Beitang," she said in a soft voice as she carefully checked her mother's reaction.
Lu Liangwei was taken aback, but realization dawned upon her when the information sank in. "I see, Youyou was the one who gave them to you." She was relieved. "You haven't given him too much trouble while you were in the Yan Kingdom, have you?"
Yaoyao stared at her mother, wide-eyed. Why was her mother reacting so calmly?
She bit her lip. "Of course, not. If it wasn't for Royal Brother heading there to take me home, he would have wanted me to stay longer."
"That's just Youyou being polite. Why are you taking it so seriously?" Lu Liangwei was exasperated. "He isn't married yet and is giving full attention to his imperial duties. He wouldn't have time to take care of a little girl like you. He must be perfectly happy and relaxed the moment you left."
