Bai Zhi’er blinked her big eyes: "Oh~ Guan Yue."
She actively looked at the little girl in the blue dress who had been pushed aside: "And you, what’s your na?"
The girl in the blue dress looked particularly small among the others.
She raised her head, her gaze sowhat timid.
"Replying to the Princess... My father is Inspector Liu Yun, and I am titled as Yingnan."
As soon as she finished speaking, the surrounding little girls covered their mouths and giggled in unison.
They exchanged a glance and finally all looked at Liu Yingnan with a peculiar gaze, laughing as they studied her.
The little girl in the blue dress beca even more nervous, clutching the corner of her clothes and silently lowering her head.
It was as if she was already accustod to being ridiculed by others.
Bai Zhi’er blinked her watery eyes in confusion and directly called out: "Guan Yue, why are you all laughing?"
Guan Yue coughed twice: "Liu Yingnan’s parents always wanted a son. I heard from my mother that when her mother was pregnant with her, both the doctor and the Taoist said this child would be a son!"
"So, they had already nad her, but alas, when she was born, she was a girl. Therefore, the servant girls just find the na amusing, nothing more."
Liu Yingnan muttered uneasily with her head down: "The na was given by my parents, why laugh at ."
Bai Zhi’er pursed her pink lips, puffed up her cheeks, feeling sowhat indignant for Liu Yingnan.
She then looked at Liu Yingnan: "After you were born, did your father and mother mistreat you?"
Liu Yingnan was taken aback, and raised her head to reply: "No, my parents were very good to Yingnan. I never went without food and clothing, and they supported Yingnan in her studies."
Bai Zhi’er nodded: "Did you have a younger brother later?"
Liu Yingnan lightly humd: "Yes, my brother is two years old this year."
Bai Zhi’er’s eyes sparkled as she propped her chin with her small hand.
"So you see, even though Yingnan’s parents made a mistake, she was born with everyone’s expectations, wasn’t she?"
"Even if she wasn’t a boy, her parents did not mistreat her. Perhaps because of her arrival, an even more adorable brother was born."
"All of your nas are quite lovely, so don’t laugh at each other!"
The little fellow waved her hand, simply diating with a few words.
Liu Yingnan was deeply moved and repeatedly thanked Bai Zhi’er.
Seeing this, Bai Zhi’er pushed her favorite plate of pastries in front of Liu Yingnan.
"Try so!"
Guan Yue, watching from the side, knitted her brows, her gaze like a knife, glancing at Liu Yingnan.
The other three little girls introduced themselves to Bai Zhi’er one after another.
Next, they were going to showcase their talents to Bai Zhi’er.
Guan Yue was the most outgoing and proactive.
She requested to be the first to present her talent to Bai Zhi’er.
"Besides studying, I practice my calligraphy the most, and Pri Minister Wen has praised my writing before!"
After Guan Yue finished speaking, Bai Zhi’er smiled and raised her hand: "Bring the inkstone, let Guan Yue have a try~"
The other little girls also prepared their talents while Guan Yue was writing.
Coincidentally, Liu Yingnan was also best at calligraphy.
She mustered up her courage and asked the Palace Attendant for an inkstone and a brush as well.
Watching the little girls lean over the table to prepare their things, Bai Zhi’er, feeling bored, pinched a piece of pastry and turned around to lean on the railing behind her.
The shimring water cast a glistening light in the little one’s eyes.
She took a bite, then threw a little to feed the fish.
Qingi, seeing this from the side, ca over and asked in a low voice: "Is Your Highness feeling bored?"
