How could he be so careless, bringing in hot tea just when the Eldest Prince and Shen Wenli were playing?
She sighed, hoping she was being overly suspicious. After all, the Eldest Prince is only five years old; using adult's complex thoughts to judge a child seems excessive.
But Min...
She pondered for a moment, lifted the curtain, and called for Bihuai: "Quietly find Erquan. I have something to ask him." She paused: "Remember, don't let Min know."
Bihuai nodded and went to the backyard.
After a while, Erquan came in with wobbly legs, seeing Xiqiu smile at him, his heart relaxed slightly: "Madam!"
"Erquan, you know I've always liked you because you are honest, reliable, and obedient." Xiqiu smiled and said, "Your brother and Chunliu are about to get married. When Chunliu returns after the marriage, you'll have a sister-in-law to look after you, and things will be better than before, right?"
