He is a high-ranking Pri Minister, really shaless!
"Lady Consort, why don’t we go inside and chat?" Song Yanqing offered.
An Ning knew Song Yanqing’s little plan, so she followed him into the General Mansion.
An Youyou whispered to Xie Qianyun, "Qianyun."
Xie Qianyun looked at An Youyou, extrely excited, "Youyou sis."
She quickly ran to An Youyou’s side.
"See, sister didn’t lie to you. I said I would co, and here I am."
"Yeah." Xie Qianyun was thrilled, actively holding An Youyou’s hand.
"You look so pretty today," An Youyou complinted.
"But I don’t like these clothes at all. They’re so inconvenient to walk in, I just want to take them off. My father and mother threatened , saying if I take them off today, I’d never be allowed back in Xun City, just thrown at the border to fend for myself."
"...Are you sure they’re your real parents?!
Rembering just now when the Queen Mother ntioned Pri Minister Song’s tears of joy after having a daughter, An Youyou couldn’t help but smile.
"There is a lot of delicious food today," Xie Qianyun eagerly said, "You will definitely like it, Youyou sis."
"Really?" An Youyou’s eyes sparkled.
On that day at the General Mansion, besides playing happily with Xie Qianyun, they ate joyfully.
Both of them were foodies.
Foodies hanging out together have common topics to talk about.
"Really." Xie Qianyun nodded, "I’ll take you to try everything later."
"Alright."
The two kept chatting, clearly hitting it off like old friends.
An Ning and Xie Ruotong glanced back at An Youyou and Xie Qianyun, both smiling knowingly.
Probably reminiscing about their own youth.
Of course, they weren’t as happy as these two kids back then; they had to think of ways to stay alive.
Suddenly rembered how Xiao Jinxing used to try to kill her everywhere she went.
Xiao Jinxing was chatting idly with Song Yanqing while holding his youngest son in his arms when he was suddenly startled by a cold gaze.
He...didn’t provoke her, did he?!
The group entered the General Mansion.
Quite a few guests had already arrived at the General Mansion.
Seeing Xiao Jinxing and his company arrive, they hurriedly bowed and greeted them.
Xiao Jinxing insisted on keeping it simple.
Fortunately, Xiao Jinxing had not been involved in court affairs for many years now, so the civil and military officials were no longer as intimidated by him. Rather, it’s Xiao Luming’s presence, despite his young age, that naturally commanded respect without anger.
So the atmosphere in the General Mansion remained harmonious.
Luncheon was, of course, sumptuous.
Song Yanqing and Xie Ruotong only had one daughter, so they naturally gave her the best of everything.
After luncheon.
So guests chose to leave, so continued to drink, while others moved to the tea house to continue chatting leisurely. The younger ones played gas like pitch-pot and archery, making the entire General Mansion bustling.
An Youyou and Anqi strolled in the General Mansion’s courtyard to digest.
Having eaten quite a lot with Xie Qianyun at noon, she felt a bit bloated now.
Yet Xie Qianyun, with her petite fra, seed perfectly fine, just monts ago hopping around cheerfully.
"Why don’t you go and spend so ti with the little Imperial Uncle?" An Youyou teased.
"Youyou!" Anqi blushed, whispering, "There are so many people today, and he’s been socializing all the ti."
"That’s true."
The two continued chatting casually, when suddenly they heard footsteps behind them.
They chose to walk in the relatively secluded back garden of the General Mansion to avoid making others feel constrained.
Their status did make it a little awkward for others to relax and play.
Upon hearing the sound, both of them turned to look and saw Xie Qianyun, dressed in n’s clothes, stealthily walking toward them with her attention fixed behind her, oblivious to the presence of An Youyou and Anqi. Upon turning and seeing them, she almost jumped out of her skin.
Her face turned pale.
She looked unbelievably comical.
An Youyou and Anqi couldn’t help but laugh.
Seeing it was them, Xie Qianyun was slightly relieved.
To sneak out, she’d managed to evade the guards at ho, not wanting her efforts to be in vain.
"What are you up to?" An Youyou asked, suppressing laughter.
"I need to go out, but my father and mother don’t allow it and even had people watching . I managed to avoid them," Xie Qianyun didn’t hide from An Youyou, "I just got a ssage saying my little brother got bullied on the street. I’m going out to stand up for him, to beat them back!"
Still the little street tyrant!
"But today’s your birthday. Aren’t you afraid your father and mother will break your legs if they find out?!"
