The soldiers guarding the entrance of Li Manor looked at Young Lady Li who was peeking at the entrance door. Li Rui smiled in embarrassment when she was caught and came out from behind the wall.
Walking towards the soldiers with small steps, she bowed her head and said
"Rui thanks both the soldier uncles for protecting Li Manor for so many years. It is only because of both the uncles Rui have been sleeping inside her courtyard peacefully at night."
Both the soldiers reciprocated her bow and continued blocking the door. Li Rui didn't go away.
She looked at them and they looked at her. She smiled and they reciprocated with the same.
After a while of silence, she cleared her throat and said
"Soldier uncle must be tired after standing for so long. Why don't you go and rest for a while? Rui will stand here and if someone came, Rui will inform both the uncles. Hmmm… This sounds good. Uncles should go and rest."
