At the time, Lian Hua did not understand what Nanny Qi meant; her words were vague yet seemingly empathetic about not wanting Lian Hua to massage her. Uncontrollably, Lian Hua's eyes crinkled with affection — Nanny was feeling sorry for her, so she just tolerated it.
After a while, seeing that Nanny Qi showed signs of tiredness, Lian Hua knew she was weary and was just about to suggest she rest when Xiao Qing came in carrying something.
Xiao Qing said, "My lady, the Bird's Nest Soup has arrived."
Lian Hua, about to speak, paused and turned upon hearing this, curiously inspecting the soup-bowl: "Oh, Bird's Nest?"
Nanny Qi nodded at her, "Yes, Bird's Nest. From today onward, you'll have a bowl every day. It's nourishing and moisturizing, very beneficial for you."
She had never tried Bird's Nest before and was curious about its taste.
