Seeing Mrs. Wang return, Aunt Wan also very sensibly came forward to serve her, offering up hot water and tea with Nanny Shen, then withdrew.
Mrs. Wang waved her hand at Nanny Shen, then said to Qin Liuxi, "I heard everything you said to your aunt. Don't look down on her for being foolish; she's just a simple person, straightforward in her ways, devoid of sly scheming, so there is no need to test her."
Qin Liuxi's movements paused as she held her tea, and she looked up at her with a wry smile, "You're so protective of her that it makes me seem like the villain."
Mrs. Wang chuckled, "You have a strong presence; she's scared of you."
Qin Liuxi touched her nose and said, "She indeed has good fortune to have met a madam like you. If it were my second aunt, she'd have been worn down to nothing by now, how could she still be as beautiful as a flower and maintain such innocence and simplicity?"
