Wen Nongnong put down her chopsticks, somewhat reluctant to leave.
Seeing that there was still so much crispy duck on the plate, she thought for a moment, then turned to Lvqiao and said, "Take this plate of crispy duck to Baili; she should like it too."
When Lü Qiao found Bai Li with her plate, she saw her sitting on the steps eating, while Wang Houde stood beside her talking to her.
Just as she was about to call her, she saw that she had finished eating and stood up.
When Bai Li was eating, some food residue accidentally got on the corner of her mouth. Wang Houde suddenly reached out and wiped it away for her.
The movements were natural and seamless.
Upon seeing this, Lü Qiao suddenly had some thoughts.
Because Bai Li was young, everyone in the household took good care of her, and Wang Houde was no exception.
She hadn't thought anything of it at first, but when she saw him wiping Bai Li's mouth, she felt something was different.
She was lost in thought when Bai Li saw her and turned to look at her. "Lü Qiao?"
Wang Houde also looked over.
Lu Qiao snapped out of her daze, carrying the crispy duck, and stepped forward with a smile. "This crispy duck, the princess couldn't finish it, so she specially asked me to bring it to you. However..." She glanced at Wang Houde, "It seems that you can't eat anymore."
Bai Li, unaware of her gaze, nodded. "Eunuch Wang also brought me one, but I'm already full." She paused, looking at the crispy duck in her hand, and couldn't help but say, "Although I can't eat anymore now, I can save it for lunch."
Lü Qiao chuckled and handed her the plate, saying, "Alright, don't waste it."
"Okay." Bai Li happily carried the plate away.
Seeing this, Wang Houde found it quite amusing and shook his head.
Green Fairy glanced at him and said with a smile, "What does Eunuch Wang think of our Little White Pear?"
Wang Houde was taken aback. "What?"
“I’ve noticed that Eunuch Wang takes good care of Bai Li. How about it, are you interested in taking her as your younger sister?” Lü Qiao asked.
Wang Houde looked at her in surprise, "You've decided to take her as your sister?"
Lü Qiao nodded. "Yes. Bai Li has always longed to have an older brother. I noticed that Eunuch Wang usually takes good care of her, so I asked him on her behalf."
Wang Houde was somewhat surprised. Looking at the other person's serious expression, he suddenly joked, "But why is she being recognized as a younger sister instead of a wife?"
Lü Qiao was stunned, utterly astonished, "Become a wife?"
“If it were a younger sister, she would get married sooner or later,” Wang Houde said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Lü Qiao nodded. "That makes sense, but..." She suddenly looked him up and down. "Has Eunuch Wang forgotten that he is a... eunuch?"
She hesitated to utter the word "eunuch" for fear of offending the other person, but she had no choice but to say it.
To everyone's surprise, Wang Houde didn't seem embarrassed at all. He raised his hand and touched his nose. "You're right, but didn't you know that eunuchs can also get married?"
Green Beauty: "..."
It took her a long time to recover her senses. "So, Eunuch Wang, you want to form a romantic relationship with Bai Li?"
"Hmm," Wang Houde responded ambiguously.
Green Fairy's eyes widened as she realized what was happening, and she quickly said, "Although I admit that Eunuch Wang is usually very kind and caring towards Bai Li, Bai Li is still young. If she were to become your partner, wouldn't her life be ruined?"
Wang Houde: "..."
How did my life get ruined by dating him?
"Do you think I can't afford to support her, or that I'll mistreat her?" he asked with a dark expression.
Green Fairy coughed and kindly reminded him, "Eunuch Wang, you are still a eunuch."
Wang Houde: "..."
Bai Li, who had brought the crispy duck back into the house, happened to return at that moment. He vaguely heard Lü Qiao say the word "eunuch" and couldn't help but glance curiously at Wang Houde.
Thinking about what happened last time, she couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her.
"Eunuch Wang, last time I saw you reading that kind of book, were you not properly castrated?"
Wang Houde: "..."
He suddenly felt a chill down below. What was that?
Green Fairy asked with a curious look, "What kind of book did Eunuch Wang read last time?"
Bai Li said, "On the night you and Si Yi consummated your marriage, I saw Eunuch Wang carrying a book in his arms... um!"
Wang Houde quickly covered her mouth.
Greenie looked at him suspiciously. "What's wrong? Is there something you can't tell me?"
Wang Houde said with a smile, "Of course not, but to prevent Master Lingyin from coming again, Bai Li and I need to discuss a plan." With that, he dragged Bai Li away.
Seeing this, Lü Qiao quickly ran back to Wen Nong Nong's room.
She had to tell the young lady about the strange thing between the two of them.
Wang Houde dragged the white pear behind the flowers and trees and then let go of it.
"Bai Li, didn't I just tell you yesterday that there are some things you can't say carelessly?" He crossed his arms and looked at her leisurely. He even bought her crispy duck, but this girl is really hard to please.
Bai Li said matter-of-factly, "I promised not to speak carelessly in front of the Princess, but I didn't promise not to speak carelessly in front of you and Lü Qiao either."
"So you admit you lied?" Wang Houde smacked her on the forehead in an annoyed tone.
Bai Li covered her forehead and frowned. "I'm not making this up. You did hide a erotic book in your arms last time. I'm telling the truth."
Wang Houde choked for a moment. So, that matter is something she can't get over?
He rubbed his temples. To avoid her misunderstanding him again, he had to tell her the truth: "That book wasn't for me to read; it was for Si Yi."
Bai Li pouted, "Don't think you can use Si Yi as an excuse just because he's not here."
Wang Houde's face darkened. "Do I need that?"
“Of course you’ll need it,” Bai Li said. “I really didn’t expect that.”
"Can't think of anything?" Wang Houde narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I never imagined that a eunuch like you would be interested in the bedroom affairs of men and women, and even secretly watch."
Wang Houde felt that even though he didn't have a heart condition, he was afraid he would develop one from all the anger.
"I didn't peek." His voice was slightly lower.
“I know you’re watching openly and honestly,” Bai Li replied.
Wang Houde: "..."
After a long pause, he gritted his teeth and said, "I am not a eunuch."
Bai Li was stunned for a moment, then looked him up and down. "I didn't realize." She thought to herself, "He's even rambling incoherently in an attempt to deny reading the erotic book."
She's not even a eunuch yet, do you think she's a three-year-old child who's easy to fool?
Wang Houde squinted and said, "Do you want to have it checked?"
"How do you check?" Bai Li asked curiously, moving closer.
Wang Houde stared at her for a moment, then fled in panic.
Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief as she watched him run away.
She wouldn't look down on his disabled body, so why would she tell such a lie?
She shrugged and went to Wen Nongnong's room.
Wen Nongnong had just finished listening to Lü Qiao's report when she saw Wen Nongnong come in, and couldn't help but look her over.
