Before Xuan could speak, Xiao Yanzheng had already lifted the curtain and came out: "Fourth Sister-in-law." He walked over excitedly, "Are you okay?" His eyes also reddened.
Xiqiu chuckled softly, "I'm fine." She said as she gave Xuan a kiss, then said to Zhi, "Take Xuan to play in the courtyard, be careful."
Zhi acknowledged and led Xuan out the door.
Xiqiu took a handkerchief and helped Xiao Yanzheng wipe his tears, smiling as she said, "Why are you crying? I'm alright." Xiao Yanzheng laughed through his tears, nodded, and took Xiqiu's arm, saying, "Yes, Fourth Sister-in-law is a great person. Good people are blessed!"
Xiqiu chuckled lightly as the two entered the side room. Xiqiu greeted the Grand Dowager and First Madam with propriety before sitting down. Chunliu and Yiquan kowtowed to the Grand Dowager and then left the mansion.
"Is my husband doing well?" Xiqiu said as she went looking for Xiao Yanzheng's second son: "Why didn't Yong come back?"
