Long Yue had just returned to the room and taken a sip of tea when someone came to knock on the door.
The Li family's few houses were all thatched cottages, and the doors were merely covered casually. The person knocked on the door, and it opened a crack. Long Yue saw her eldest niece, Li Xiangxiang, poking her head in.
This was her sister-in-law's daughter. Her sister-in-law had given birth to a pair of twins, now twelve years old. In a few years, one will marry and one will be married off; it's rather lively.
"Xiangxiang, do you have something to say?"
Long Yue saw her looking hesitant, which clearly meant she had come to discuss something.
Li Xiangxiang sniffed, remembering her mother's instructions, and courageously stepped in, getting straight to the point: "Aunt, can I learn embroidery with Sister Qiao'er from the Chai family here at your place?"
The young girl blinked her big round eyes, looking at Long Yue with expectation.
