After Lu-shi left Chunhui Hall, she clenched her teeth and headed straight for the South Garden. As she drew closer, she felt the place was in an uproar.
This area was close to the back street where the Song Mansion's servants lived in clusters; most of the passersby were servants, and their loud voices made it all the more irritating.
When she reached the front of the South Garden, there happened to be no servants around at this hour, but Lu-shi saw a boy in a little red padded jacket, with his hair tied up in two little tufts, squatting in a corner by the wall, fiddling with something.
Her brows knit; she went over for a closer look. The boy turned his head, revealing a thin little face that bore some resemblance to Concubine Bai from back then. When he saw her, he gave a silly grin, drool trailing from the corner of his mouth, making him look even more foolish.
