"Xie Wanqing, you dare?!" The little princess slammed her hand on the table and shouted at her back.

As expected, Xie Wanqing's footsteps stopped, but before she could say anything, Sun Xiaoxiao turned around and said first, "Twelfth Princess, don't go overboard." There was warning in her eyes.

The little princess was clearly threatened and could only glare at her, as if she wanted to stare at a hole in her back.

The little princess finally quieted down and Sun Xiaoxiao left with Xie Wanqing.

Lady Chen had not made a sound since just now. The children on the table were quarreling back and forth, she thought she could not see it, and only let them fight. Seeing that Sun Xiaoxiao had already left, she knew that she would not be able to fight anymore.

Therefore, she put down her chopsticks and stood up, "Your servant shall take his leave, Princess."

Logically speaking, the princess still hadn't withdrawn, so no one should be allowed to leave the table first. However, it was clear that there wasn't such a rule within the General Mansion.

This General Mansion was too strange, it was completely different from what she had imagined. The so-called rules of respect and etiquette were all completely useless, Sun Xiaoxiao actually dared to go against a dignified princess, this was something even more unimaginable.

But now was not the time to think about this. She had to wait on the princess to continue eating.

The Twelfth Princess had just suffered a bunch of anger, so naturally, her mood wasn't good. Adding to that, Xie Wanyun was Xie Wanqing's big sister, so she couldn't help but get angry at her, and give Xie Wanyun a good scolding.

However, in this room, other than Xie Wanyun and Princess, the rest of the servants were all Attendant s, no one was able to help her persuade them.

Xie Wanyun lowered her head, looking like she was obedient. In the end, the princess was also tired, so she let her go.

No one would have thought that the current Twelfth Princess, who was so far above them, would one day be killed by Xie Wanyun in a foreign land. This is a later story, so let's not talk about it for now.

Sun Xiaoxiao brought Xie Wanqing back to her own courtyard and instructed the kitchen to cook a few dishes and send them over.

"You should have some too." Sun Xiaoxiao had been good to her, but Xie Wanqing did not intentionally show courtesy, she just pulled her along and sat down, she had seen everything clearly just now. Sun Xiaoxiao did not eat much. The stomach must still be hungry.

"Yanqing, don't be angry. I didn't even know that this little devil was coming." Sun Xiaoxiao looked at her apologetically, and the Little Devil in her mouth was probably the Twelfth Princess.

Xie Wanqing felt a sense of novelty: "You still dare to give the princess a nickname?" This courage was too great.

"What's wrong with that? She's a little devil after all, and she won't let people say it." Sun Xiaoxiao did not mind.

"Besides, this nickname wasn't given to her by me. It was given to her by those people in the palace — it's practically the truth!" She whispered into Xie Wanqing's ear.

When Xie Wanqing heard this, she could not help but laugh out loud, thinking to herself that there seemed to be quite a few people that the Twelfth Princess had offended in the palace.

They had only spoken a few words, but the maidservants had already gathered the dishes. Although they were not as delicate or as numerous as they were just now, it was sufficient for the two of them.

Sun Xiaoxiao originally had a lot of complaints about the Twelfth Princess, but unfortunately, in all these years, no one of the same age had heard her complaints. Now that she had Xie Wanqing, she immediately started to talk.

Xie Wanqing talked about the evil deeds the Twelfth Princess had done in the past few years. She had been unruly and willful in the palace, and then, how she had quarreled with Xie Wanqing when she played at General Mansion, angering her every time. Each time, she would be scolded and punished by the Old Mistress and her mother.

After all, Xie Wanqing's body was the soul of an adult, so she was not angry at the quarrels between the children that Sun Xiaoxiao had mentioned. On the contrary, she felt like laughing when she saw how righteous and indignant Sun Xiaoxiao was.

People were always like this. When you were a child, you would think that it was very important and excessive. In fact, when you grew up, you would realize that it was nothing. Even when you were angry, when you grew up, you could still smile.

After the two finished eating, the servants came to report that Xie Wanyun had returned.

Sun Xiaoxiao said impatiently: "If she's gone, then she's gone. Who would want to keep her here?" With that said, he waved her hand and dismissed the maidservant.

Then, he turned to Xie Wanqing and asked: "Are the teachers in your Marquis Anyang's Mansion particularly harsh on you?"

Xie Wanqing didn't know why she asked him this question all of a sudden, "Gentlemen, you aren't all that strict. Treat us well, no matter how strict you are, you can't be more strict than Shouxi School, right?"

Previously, she had heard from Xie Huaixing that a student had been punished by her teacher to copy the text fifty times within a day. It was said that the student had not been able to finish copying them without rest. In the end, he was slapped in the palm by the teacher.

"The Mister Shouxi School is not strict," Sun Xiaoxiao smiled at her complacently. "They only dare to be strict with the Humble Class students. At most, you will just complain to my dad. "

"Why did you suddenly think of asking my husband just now?" Xie Wanqing asked doubtfully.

When Sun Xiaoxiao heard this, she said with disdain: "Isn't it your sister? We are obviously siblings from the same mother, but your character is too lousy, and the little devil just now clearly showed that he is bullying you, Xie Wanyun actually said that it is your honor to serve the princess. Was there anyone who treated their own sister this way? "I'm afraid that it's not because Kong Meng learned too much about the ways of etiquette, he even learned it from someone else, right or wrong."

It was just that Xie Wanyun was not her twin sister in the first place, so he naturally did not wish for her good. She could not tell Sun Xiaoxiao these things, but she did not plan to speak up for Xie Wanyun, so she only replied: "My sister's nature is always like this, you should not bother with her, if not you will not be able to handle it."

Hearing that, Sun Xiaoxiao waved her hands at her indifferently, saying: "I will not care about her, next time you better not bring her here."

Xie Wanqing immediately smiled in agreement. In any case, after today's events, Xie Wanyun did not know how much anger she had accumulated, and Sun Xiaoxiao did not give her any face, so Lady Chen did not help her out, and the 12 princesses must have made things difficult for her again, if not, Xie Wanyun would not rush back home so quickly. From the looks of it, unless Sun Xiaoxiao sent someone to invite her, she would not follow along.

However, it would be best if he didn't follow them. Otherwise, when Xie Wanqing was in the Marquis Anyang's Mansion, with someone from the Concubine Fang watching him, and after coming out of the Marquis Anyang's Mansion, with Xie Wanyun following him, it would be impossible to accomplish anything.

When they went out to meet Sun Xiaoxiao, the two of them hated that they were late. Xie Wanqing suddenly thought about the matter of earning money.

"Let me borrow your pen and paper." she said mysteriously.

Sun Xiaoxiao didn't know what she was thinking, but she called for a pen and paper. Xie Wanqing wrote a bunch of ingredients on it, and raised his head to ask her: "Do you have these things in your kitchen?"

How could Sun Xiaoxiao know what was in the kitchen? But since Xie Wanqing asked, she called the kitchen over.

The kitchen lady could not read, so Xie Wanqing read them to her one by one.

Xie Wanqing was extremely happy when she heard it, "I'll treat you to delicious food." She excitedly blinked her eyes at Sun Xiaoxiao.

Then she followed the cook to the kitchen.

Sun Xiaoxiao was not interested in the kitchen. Seeing that Xie Wanqing seemed to have something on her mind, she did not stop him either. She dismissed the servant and stood guard outside the kitchen while she herself sat in the yard and dozed off.

After a long while, when Sun Xiaoxiao was sleeping soundly, she felt someone shouting beside her ear, "Wake up."

He opened his eyes and saw Xie Wanqing holding a small bowl in her hands. The bowl was filled with transparent food. No matter if it was the food from the south or the north, they all had a certain understanding and would frequently cook confections for the masters of the palace. However, Sun Xiaoxiao had never seen anything like this.

She looked at Xie Wanqing with a face full of curiosity, and asked: "Did you do this?" You've been working in the kitchen all day just to do this?

Xie Wanqing nodded her head, and handed the spoon over to her: "Taste it, if not, I will change the taste."

This was the first time Sun Xiaoxiao had seen food that she had never seen before. As a result, she no longer hesitated and used a spoon to gently scoop some food into her mouth.
