Chapter 269 - 269 Tired Bird Returns to the Forest at Night



He had brought the villagers to rob Yu Niaoniao and the others because his father was sick and urgently needed money for treatment.

Now that his father had recovered, their family was very grateful to Yu Niaoniao. They specially invited Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan to their house for dinner.

Xia Haisheng told Yu Niaoniao about their experiences during this period of time.

!!

After receiving Yu Niaoniao’s guidance, Xia Haisheng brought the villagers to Wangsong City and sent Yu Niaoniao’s personal letter to County Magistrate Liu.

County Magistrate Liu was in great pain. He was already very busy, and now the Princess Consort of Lang County was giving him additional work.

Wasn’t this overworking?

However, County Magistrate Liu did not have the right to refuse. He could only brace himself and temporarily settle them in a small village under his jurisdiction. However, because of the limited fields, County Magistrate Liu could not produce so much land to distribute to the villagers of the Xia family village. He planned to distribute some food to the villagers first before letting them develop the wasteland.

Unexpectedly, before the wasteland was developed, the villagers of the Xia family village heard about the decree to return the land in Liaodong County and were overjoyed.

They packed their luggage and ran back to the Xia family village in Liaodong County.

Now that the villagers had already reclaimed the land that originally belonged to them, the strong men who had been forcibly recruited had also been released. Prince Min had even given out the order for all the commoners in Liaodong County to be exempted from taxes for two years.

Life in the Xia family village returned to its usual stability.

Xia Haisheng was moved to tears.

“Although we don’t know why the county governor suddenly wants to return the land to us, I can feel that all of this is because of His Highness and the Princess Consort. You must have done something behind the scenes.

“Otherwise, why would we be able to take back our land not long after you arrived in Liaodong County?”

Yu Niaoniao smiled. “Perhaps this is just a coincidence?”

Xia Haisheng was very determined.

“I might not have much knowledge, but I’m not stupid. There’s definitely no such coincidence.”

With that, he knelt down and kowtowed to Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan.

“I, Xia Haisheng, will never forget your kindness. If you need me in the future, I won’t hesitate to climb mountains of blades and go through seas of flames!”

Yu Niaoniao hurriedly asked him to get up.

“If you’re really grateful to us, put in a few good words for my duke if anyone badmouths him in the future. He’s actually quite a good person. He’s not as scary as outsiders say.”

Xia Haisheng hurriedly replied.

“That’s for sure!

“When there’s a harvest in the land, our village will use food to exchange for some money and build a memorial for the two of you. Not only can we let our descendants remember your kindness, but we can also let the people in the surrounding villages know your great achievements.”

Yu Niaoniao waved her hand. “Forget about the memorial. If you’re really rich, you can build a road or a school. These are much better than the memorial.”

Xia Haisheng agreed immediately.

“Alright! We’ll do as you say. We’ll set up a school later. The school will be named after the two of you. How about calling it the Duke Lang Couple School?”

Yu Niaoniao smiled awkwardly and politely. “Don’t you think the name of this school is a little long?”

Xia Haisheng scratched the back of his head. “I’ve never studied before, so I don’t know what name is suitable. Why don’t you suggest a name?”

Yu Niaoniao thought for a moment and had an idea.

“Let’s call it Juan Niao School.”

Xia Haisheng blurted out, “What a good name!”

Actually, he did not know what Juan Niao meant at all, but no matter what the County Princess said, he felt that it was a good name.

Xiao Juan suddenly asked.

“Do you know how to write the words?”

Xia Haisheng shook his head, indicating that he didn’t know.

He didn’t even know how to write his name. How could he know how to write those words?

Xiao Juan ordered someone to get a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone and wrote the words “Juan Niao School” on the spot.

His handwriting was just like the feeling he gave off. It was ironclad and had a sharp aura.

However, for some reason, when Yu Niaoniao saw these words, her heart felt warm and soft.

Xia Haisheng carefully accepted the calligraphy treasure and planned to find a craftsman to frame it and hang it in the main room of the school.

Walking out of Xia Haisheng’s house, Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan walked along the path to their temporary residence.

The small village was very quiet at night. The moon was bright and the atmosphere was good.

Unfortunately, the wind was too strong, and Yu Niaoniao shivered from the cold.

She was not in the mood to take a walk at all. She only wanted to return to the warm house quickly.

Xiao Juan suddenly asked.

“Why did you suggest Juan Niao School?”

Yu Niaoniao stopped in her tracks and said as if nothing had happened.

“Juan Niao refers to tired birds. The tired birds return to the forest at dusk, and the clouds return to the mountain. Haven’t you heard the poem? I thought the poem had a good mood. Moreover, it could remind the children in the school that they were from the Xia family village. Even if they become successful in the future, they can’t forget their roots.”

Xiao Juan did not comment on this explanation.

Yu Niaoniao said, “Why aren’t you saying anything? Do you think the name is bad?”

Xiao Juan’s voice had a rare gentleness. “I think this name is very good to me. I like it very much.”

Yu Niaoniao’s heart skipped a beat.

...

She snorted softly.

“That’s better.”

… .

After leaving the Xia family village, the convoy traveled for another three days before finally arriving at the border of Liaodong County.

Tang Guixi looked at Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan.

“I’ll see you off from afar. We’ll part ways eventually. I’ll see you off here!”

Yu Niaoniao was very reluctant. “You have to take good care of yourself in the future. Don’t let yourself be injured again.”

Tang Guixi smiled and said, “You too. You have to take good care of yourself!”

Yu Niaoniao walked forward and hugged her.

Tang Guixi whispered into her ear.

“If you encounter any trouble, you must write to me. As sisters, I will definitely help you even if I have to cross thousands of mountains and rivers.”

...

Yu Niaoniao agreed. “Yes, you too. If there’s anything, you must write to me.”

Tang Guixi looked at Duke Lang and smiled.

“Alright, let go of me quickly. Otherwise, your prince’s eyes will pop out.”

Yu Niaoniao chuckled. “He won’t glare.”

Although she said that, she couldn’t help but look back at Xiao Juan.

The man stood there expressionlessly. Indeed, he did not glare.

Yu Niaoniao let go of Tang Guixi and smiled.

“Then let’s go.”

Tang Guixi pretended to be relaxed and waved her hand. “Go, go. Stop dawdling.”

Last time, it was Yu Niaoniao who watched Tang Guixi leave on her horse. This time, it was Tang Guixi who stood rooted to the ground and watched Yu Niaoniao get into the carriage.

The carriage slowly drove forward.

Yu Niaoniao leaned against the car window and stuck her head out to look at Tang Guixi.

Tang Guixi waved her arm at her and shouted.

“Have a safe trip!”

Yu Niaoniao laughed and waved her arms at her.

Xiao Juan rode beside the carriage, followed by the other Eagle Guards.

Seeing the convoy walk further and further away until they could no longer be seen, Tang Guixi reluctantly retracted her gaze.

She mounted her horse and spoke to the soldiers behind her.

“Let’s go too.”

The two teams walked in two completely opposite directions.

When would they meet again?
