When Gu Nuo'er stepped over a lush tree…
She paused and turned to look at the tree root.
A small bird nest had fallen for some reason. A few newborn birds called out helplessly and in an extremely soft voice.
"Eldest Brother, let's send the bird nest back together."
The child held onto the bird nest while Gu Zixiao carried her and lifted the child.
Gu Zixiao was tall and when he carried Gu Nuo'er, he looked even more reliable and steady.
He grabbed the child's arm tightly with his two strong arms.
Gu Nuo'er carefully placed the bird nest back on a stable fork of the tree branches.
At this moment, she saw from the corner of her eye that Gu Rao was talking to a young palace maid in the garden a wall away.
Due to the concealment of the branches, Gu Nuo'er's small body wasn't discovered.
She watched as Gu Rao lowered her head and whispered to the young palace maid, "I asked you to catch spiders. How many have you caught?"
