The residence in East Fourth Hutong was not large, and the lively chatter in the front courtyard could be heard clearly in the back yard.
Amidst this noisy chatter, Su Rong let out a yawn, "I'm tired."
Infected by her, Duanhua also yawned, "I'm tired too."
Then, the two of them stopped talking in complete unison, closed their eyes together, and soon, they both fell asleep.
The servant girl peeked through the door crack, then withdrew her head and whispered to Duanhua's maid: "Our Lady and your Princess have fallen asleep."
Duanhua's maid Qiu Zhi nodded, thinking that ever since encountering Lady Su Qi, her own princess's temper had been influenced by her to become more easygoing. She had come to play with Lady Su Qi, but unexpectedly, when she found her not getting up from the bed, she also went to the bed and joined her in sleeping during the day.
Qiu Zhi secretly called the servant girl over, and the servant girl understood, following her off to one side to talk.
