Eunuch Li, who was over forty years old, was an elderly servant by Princess Ning's side. He had come especially to visit Qian Yeejin and Qian Yixiu, conveying Princess Ning's wishes for their happy birthdays and for everything to go their way. The boy's studies were getting better and the girl was becoming prettier...
Eunuch Li was very excited, his voice high-pitched and somewhat trembling as he spoke, his eyes eagerly fixed on Qian Yeejin. Even when he blessed Qian Yixiu, his gaze would drift towards Qian Yeejin.
After all, Yixiu wasn't really a little girl and knew that Qian Yeejin wasn't a child of the Qian family. Seeing Eunuch Li's expression and thinking about Princess Ning's enthusiasm for her own family, even if father had been a close confidant of Prince Ning, would that warrant such concern for both of their children?
