Nianzhi played a few times and lost interest. Kids are just like that, they quickly get interested and quickly lose interest.
Qin Yin watched Nianzhi losing interest in things like kites and horses, and felt this place wasn't fun anymore.
She secretly worried that this might negatively affect his character, fearing he might become a playboy, especially since he resembles Nan Sichen, who has a face that naturally attracts admirers. So she sighed deeply every day.
Nan Sichen asked her, "What's wrong?"
She answered honestly, "I'm worried Nianzhi might grow up to be an irresponsible playboy. You see how fast he gets bored with things, it's almost like the speed of light."
But Nan Sichen didn't think so; he just said, "He's my son. I'm so devoted, he won't be lacking in that department."
Yet Qin Yin was still worried, and decided to have a serious talk with Nianzhi.
The family of three returned from Sumu, on the first night back.
