Furong was hesitant to speak. Under the patient attention of her husband, she still said it in the end: “Today... Agula saw Guqi’s family’s little son...” Furong’s face reddened. She found it difficult to continue. Sukhbaru asked: “What’s wrong? Did he bully Agula?” “It’s not that... It’s, Agula saw him pass water. When she came back, she kept asking me why they were different there.” Sukhbaru patted his wife’s shoulder, then he assured her: “The Guqi family’s little son is only four years old. And besides, Agula is still a kid, she’ll forget all about this in a few days.” “But I’m still worried! It’s a thousand fortunes that Agula did not say anything about it right away or asked anyone else! Otherwise, what am I to do?” Sukhbaru was quiet for a moment, then he wrapped Furong in his arms. He kissed her smooth forehead while he rested his big hand carefully on Furong’s belly bump: “Alright, I won’t bring her there tomorrow. I know what you’re worried about. Da-ge will guarantee you that those situations will absolutely never happen. The Tuba tribe has been very restless recently, it’s truly not a good time to recover Agula’s identity now. Sorry to make you two go through all this.” Furong shook her head. She leaned on his wide chest, while her delicate fingers rested on the back of her husband’s hand. She had lived very happily for the past few years. Her husband was a noble Khagan, but he only married her, and he treated her with great care and love. Although she was uneducated, she knew that women who married into big families in the Wei kingdom could not easily show their faces outside. But on the grass plains, she was free to go anywhere in the Chengli tribe. Her husband had not just encouraged her to show her face, he would frequently bring her to important events. Furong had lived under the protection of this ‘da-ge’ ever since her youth.
