Chapter 603: Chapter 603: Suitable for Relocation_1
At that time, Wei Jinyi didn’t understand Wei Ruo’s implication, thinking that leaving it up to her would be the best course of action.
Now that Wei Ruo mentioned the matter about the name of the courtyard again, Wei Jinyi finally grasped what she meant.
After a moment’s silence, Wei Jinyi said, “Tomorrow is a good day, suitable for moving. What do you think, Ruoruo?”
“I also think that tomorrow will be a good day,” Wei Ruo answered with a smile.

Word spread quickly about Wei Ruo and Wei Jinyi holding hands as they toured Jiliao City.
The subordinates of Wei Ruo and Wei Jinyi started discussing privately:
“Does this mean that our lord and lady are going to be together?”
“I guess so, they held hands all day! Everyone saw it, so many people witnessed it, there can be no misunderstanding!”
“But our lord’s leg has just healed. The reason they held hands might be because the lady was afraid he would stumble.”
“I don’t agree with that theory. If he wasn’t fully recovered, she should be helping him, not holding hands. Moreover, they climbed a mountain. If he needed support just to walk, how could they do that?”
“Exactly, if it was just the usual relationship, they wouldn’t do this. This makes them look more like a couple!”
“Should we change how we address the lady? Instead of lady, should we start calling her Queen?”
“Calling her Madam works too. We don’t refer to our lord as Prince, so it seems more appropriate to call the lady Madam.”
“Whether it’s Queen or Madam, we should definitely stop calling her lady.”
“…”
Xiaobei happened to pass by and saw them whispering.
“What are you chirping about?”
Seeing Xiaobei, everyone hurriedly pulled him over.
“Lu Bei, you serve the lord closely and you are more informed than us. Can you tell us what exactly is the situation between the lord and the lady now?”
“I’m not quite sure as well. The lord didn’t tell me anything. But I have noticed that the lord and the lady have been quite intimate lately,” Xiaobei replied.
“Then… have the lord and the lady been sleeping in the same room recently?”
Everyone’s faces were filled with curiosity and gossip.
“I don’t know, but I haven’t noticed any such thing,” Xiaobei replied.
He hadn’t seen it, but if the two of them intended to hide it, he wouldn’t know either.
“Lu Bei, why don’t you find a chance to ask? We’re not sure whether we should change how we address the lady. If the lord and the lady have already… you know, it would be disrespectful to keep calling her lady.”
“Yeah, you should ask. It wouldn’t be good if we keep calling her ‘miss’ due to ignorance, and upset them.”
“…”
While everyone pushed Xiaobei to ask, Xiaobei pondered for a moment and said, “Alright, I’ll try asking the lord if I get a chance.”
“Yes, go and ask.”
“I understand.”
Xiaobei shook his head helplessly and continued to the back courtyard.
Passing by the entrance of Songzhu Garden, he happened to see Lady Xiumei coming out.
“Lady Xiumei!” Xiaobei quickly called out to Xiumei.
Xiumei stopped, turned around to see Xiaobei, her eyes involuntarily showing a hint of evasion.
