When I was almost done reading the storybook, Lu Yugang's voice rang out from outside: "Sister, we have arrived at Chunhui River. We can get off the carriage now."

Lu Lingxi closed the book and replied, "Okay!"

Liu Lu jumped off the carriage first, and reached out to help Lu Lingxi, while Chunhong followed beside Lu Lingxi and helped her. Seeing them so busy, Lu Lingxi said, "I can get off by myself, no need for help." In fact, it is safer to get off the carriage by yourself. The space in front of the carriage is very small. If several people are pulling and shoving, won't it be more crowded and easier to fall? With such a short height and a low stool to support the feet, why would you need help to get off?

Chunhong stepped back a little and said, "Okay, Miss, you go first." Liulu also withdrew her hand.

After Lu Lingxi got off the carriage, he found that there were already a lot of people here. There were many carriages parked nearby. They were all young masters and young ladies from various mansions who came out for fun, all accompanied by a large group of servants. There were hundreds of people at the riverside at once, and it was even more lively than the streets.

When Lu Lingxi got off the carriage, many people looked over here, sizing her up and down. Some thought: "Didn't the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion commit suicide? Didn't she die? She got well so soon, it seems she was just pretending. That's right, although the Crown Prince is a bit fickle, he is handsome, not to mention powerful and influential. If she marries him, she might become the queen who is second only to the emperor. Haha."

The man in the pavilion in the distance was looking at the person he had been waiting for for a long time finally arriving, and was also looking at Lu Lingxi. This man was none other than the current Second Prince. He thought to himself: "This only daughter of General Lu is not like the daughters of ordinary generals. She is not strong and tough, but rather cute and lovely like a little girl. She is still acceptable. Considering the military power in General Lu's hands, I can barely accept taking her as a concubine. It's just that Yan'er is wronged." He looked at Lu Lingxi like this, as if Lu Lingxi was already in his pocket.

Miss Liu Fufeng, the Imperial Censor who had fought with Lu Lingxi at the Palace's Hundred Flowers Banquet last time, was also there. She twisted the silk handkerchief in her hand into a ball and threw it aside, thinking angrily, "What bad luck! Why is she everywhere? She didn't come earlier or later, but chose to leave the house today to bother me."

These people stared at Lu Lingxi. What they were thinking, Lu Lingxi had no idea and didn't care. She only saw the beautiful spring scenery, clear water and green grass, which was pleasing to the eyes and made her feel good. In modern times, there are reinforced concrete buildings everywhere, and pollution from various industrial and domestic wastes. It is difficult to see such natural scenery.

At that moment, a cool breeze blew in from the riverside, brushing against Lu Lingxi's face and blowing her hair around her ears, making her unable to help but open her arms, close her eyes and quietly feel it all.

"Brother, it's so nice here. The wind is comfortable. Shall we rest here? Okay?" Lu Lingxi smiled and turned his head to ask Lu Yugang.

"Okay, as long as my sister likes it, anywhere is fine." Lu Yugang also smiled dotingly. He ordered the servants to spread the canvas, set up the low table, and put snacks on it.

After everything was ready, Lu Lingxi sat down facing the Chunhui River, and Lu Yugang sat on his left. Lu Lingxi had lost his memory, and didn't know what to talk about with Lu Yugang, so he picked up the storybook and continued reading, so that they wouldn't sit there with nothing to say, which was quite awkward.

When Lu Lingxi was reading the storybook, Lu Yugang had nothing to do, so he looked at Lu Lingxi. After a while, he burst into laughter.

Lu Lingxi looked at him in confusion.

When Lu Yugang saw Lu Lingxi looking up at him, he quickly stopped laughing and explained, "It's nothing, it's just that my sister is reading seriously. She looks gentle and calm, and is becoming more and more like a young lady from a scholarly family. She's not like the yellow-haired girl who never grew up before."

"Brother, are you making fun of me?" Lu Lingxi pouted in dissatisfaction.

"No, no, I was praising my sister for growing up." Lu Yugang explained quickly for fear that Lu Lingxi would be angry.

"Oh~" Lu Lingxi didn't know how to respond for a moment, so he just said "oh".

"It's been so long since I last saw you. How are you doing, sister? Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"I'm fine. I eat well and sleep well every day. I have people to serve me. I live a comfortable life. How about you, brother? How are you doing in the army? What do you do every day?" Lu Lingxi scratched her head and tried to find a topic. After all, from Lu Lingxi's perspective, today was the first time they met, and it was really embarrassing for her to sit down and have an awkward chat.

"I'm fine too. I also train all day long in the army. You girls are not interested in these things." Lu Yugang is also a topic terminator. After giving a simple answer, he didn't know how to continue the conversation that day.

"What is Master Yugang's current position? When can he become a general like the master?" Fortunately, Liu Lu was a talkative person, so she didn't feel any awkwardness or cold atmosphere.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, sister. I'm only a centurion now. I'm not even in the official ranks yet, not even from the ninth rank." Speaking of his official position, Lu Yugang felt a little ashamed of himself for being only a centurion for such a long time.

"Brother, there is no need to underestimate yourself. I heard that you have only been in the military camp for a few months. When you first arrived, you were just an ordinary soldier. In just a few months, you were promoted to captain. You are already very impressive." Lu Lingxi comforted him.

"Speaking of going to the military camp, I have only been separated from my sister for a few months. Before, you always called me 'Brother Yugang', but this time when you came back, you kept calling me brother. It feels a lot more unfamiliar." Lu Yugang looked at Lu Lingxi seriously, hoping that she would change back to the previous name.

"This..." This made Lu Lingxi feel a little embarrassed. "Brother", calling him "brother" always felt a bit like a green tea. It was okay if they were real siblings, but it was really hard to call him "brother" when she knew they were not real siblings. She had finally come up with the name "brother".

"Miss has become much more mature and stable after waking up from her amnesia this time. Maybe she thinks that calling you 'brother' will make others think she is still a little girl who likes to act coquettishly, so she calls you 'brother'. Is that right, Miss?" Chunhong saw that Lu Lingxi didn't know how to respond for a long time, so she helped her out.

"Yes, I think calling you 'Brother Yugang' all the time makes you seem a little frivolous. Calling you brother makes you seem more stable, and you are someone who can protect me from the wind and rain. It's not alienating me, but it recognizes your growth, which gives me a sense of security." Lu Lingxi also quickly followed Chunhong's words and explained with a smile. In fact, I just couldn't bring myself to call him that, and I didn't know if he would believe the reason I made up.

"Is that so? Fine, you can call me whatever you want, as long as you don't become estranged from your brother." It was just a name, and Lu Yugang didn't want to care too much about it. Besides, Lingxi had just recovered and hadn't yet recovered his memory. He didn't remember how we got along in the past, so it was inevitable that we would become a little estranged.

"Hehe! Thank you for your understanding, brother." Lu Lingxi scratched his head a little awkwardly.

"Hey! Brother, look, there are birds catching fish by the river." She shouted and changed the subject abruptly. Lu Yugang knew that she didn't want to continue such an awkward conversation, so he obediently looked away.

There were several people nearby who were listening to the conversation between Lu Lingxi and his sister, hoping to get some information, find something to hold against Lu Lingxi, and ridicule her. They were startled by her shout. They thought to themselves, "What are you doing? You're so jumpy, so vulgar!" Anyway, no matter what Lu Lingxi did now, in the eyes of these people, it was just vulgar.
