"Madam!" Lyuzhi saw Bihuai supporting Xiqiu into the courtyard and came forward to greet them: "Everything is well at home. The young master and Twelfth Aunt have both been sent back, Young Master Zhi is inside studying, and Fourth Master hasn't returned yet!"
Xiqiu nodded, letting Lyuzhi help her remove her cloak as she stepped into the room, where she saw Zhi sitting cross-legged on the kang, absorbed in a book. Qingshan and Qingyuan were also sitting nearby, each reading a book, their voices resounding as they read aloud. Seeing her enter, the three of them set their books aside, and Qingshan and Qingyuan bowed and stood to the side, while Zhi joyfully called out, "Mother!"
"What book are you reading?" Xiqiu picked up the book Zhi had put down; it was an Introduction to Phonetics. She laughed and said, "I heard the teacher was currently teaching the Three Character Classic. Why did you take out the Introduction to Phonetics to read at this time?"
