She was just a maid, and she had no right to teach her master what to say and what not to say. So she had to do her duty and not let others misunderstand whether her princess was bullying others.

Poor Miss Yin Zi was also worried about her master. But her careless master didn't feel anything was wrong and continued to eat in the house with a mouthful of honey water and snacks without any psychological burden.

"If you like this water chestnut cake, I'll have someone copy the recipe for you later, and you can ask the chef to make it in your own house in the future. But don't be greedy for a moment, and don't eat it after you finish this one."

Princess Duan Ning looked at this silly new sister with a gentle look in her eyes. The seventh sister was indeed as innocent as her eldest sister said.

Chenghua had never looked at herself, a princess born to a low-ranking concubine, in the eye before, let alone such an enthusiastic invitation to her home and the close relationship between the sisters.

"I know. I'll just eat two pieces first to fill my stomach. Didn't you say there will be more delicious food later?"

Chu Daidai stuffed the last bite of pastry in his hand into his mouth and chatted with the other party in a slurred manner.

"An An said that the secret recipe is very important, and I can't just ask for other people's things, because we don't have any secret recipes at home to exchange with you.

But it doesn't matter, I know someone who cooks really, really delicious food. When he comes to Beijing to visit me in the future, I will invite you to my house again, so that you, the fourth sister, can also taste such delicious braised pork!"

"Okay, thank you Seventh Sister for thinking of me."

Princess Duan Ning did not ask her whether what she said was true or not, but just agreed gently like coaxing a child. Chu Daidai thought that the other party was a genius who was particularly good at food like himself, so he was more happy to chat with her.

"I will probably hold various banquets in the future. Fourth sister, I will invite you to play often in the future, okay?"

Master Chu was extremely happy to have found another sister who could give him a gift. Princess Duan Ning, who received the other party's sincerity, also nodded with emotion.

"Okay. As long as Seventh Sister doesn't despise your Fourth Sister for being unlucky, I will try my best to support you."

"I don't mind it!"

As for gifts, you can accept any you want. How much is too much? Even a mosquito leg is still meat, no matter how small it is. What's there to dislike?

It's amazing that these two sisters have different trains of thought and talk about irrelevant things, but they can still have a harmonious atmosphere which is very rare. It's really not easy.

If someone very tactless hadn't come and interrupted this harmony, Chu Daidai would still be the beautiful and well-behaved Princess Rongchang.

But now?

She blinked her eyes and looked at the old lady in green clothes who suddenly walked in opposite her. She always felt that the hairpins on her hair must be very valuable.

Pei bowed perfunctorily to the two princesses, and then, with her face expressionless as usual, she used words to control Princess Duanning.

"Your Highness, you have been staying at the Prince Consort's place for more than a month. This is really against the rules! Today is the last time I come to ask you to come. If Your Highness still does not follow me back to the Princess's Mansion, then I will have no choice but to report it to the clan leader!"

Princess Duanning gasped several times due to breathlessness, clenched and unclenched her fists, unclenched and clenched them again, and made several efforts in her heart before she replied in a low voice.

"Aunt, I don't want to go back yet. Can you let me stay for a while longer?"

"absurd!"

Pei's sharp eyebrows raised, making people feel a little scared for some reason.

"There are so many princesses in the royal family. Can you tell me which one of them abandoned the princess's residence and moved into the prince consort's residence instead?

What you are doing now has already broken the rules. Don't you know it in your heart? How will people from other princesses' mansions view our Princess Duan Ning's mansion? It is because I did not teach you well that you are so willful and reckless! "

She knew that what the other party said was right, but Princess Duan Ning really didn't want to go back now, so she lowered her head and remained silent, just tightly clenching her sleeves in silent refusal.

Pei's brows were tightly furrowed, and her eyes were full of disappointment towards Princess Duanning.

"If you really like your husband, you can summon him twice more in the future. You are the king and he is the minister. Why do you have to lower yourself to accommodate a lowly minister? It is really self-deprecating..."

"aunt!"

Princess Duan Ning suddenly interrupted her. Even though she was shaking with anger, her good upbringing still did not allow her to speak ill of her aunt. She could only try her best to argue with her and maintain her dignity as a princess.

"My husband is my husband, not a subordinate! I moved to the Marquis of Jingling's mansion to recuperate with the permission of the Empress Dowager. How can you belittle yourself? If you continue to speak so recklessly, I will go to the palace to ask the Empress Dowager to seek justice for me."

She was born with a soft personality and her family background was not as prominent as her other sisters, so she could not learn their strength. But she loved her husband and could not bear to see him being looked down upon.

Feeling contradicted, Pei looked at her coldly. Princess Duanning, who had been cowardly for more than twenty years, would only disobey the rules and be undisciplined when it came to men. She was really abominable!

She snorted coldly.

"As long as you can afford to lose this person, you can go to the palace to complain about me! I have a mouth, so I will naturally go to the clan leader to argue about right and wrong.

Do you dare to say that you moved out of the princess's mansion against the rules not for the sake of pleasure?

You think I am too strict as your auntie? Why don't you think you are a princess but you are so unruly and spend all day thinking about men...ah!"

All the unpleasant words that were not finished disappeared after a scream.

Chu Chi looked at the fourth sister she had just acknowledged. Her face became paler and paler as she listened to the other party's words. Even if she didn't understand, she knew that this old woman was bullying her!

"How dare you bully my fourth sister?"

The tiger-head shoes arrogantly stepped on the old woman in brocade clothes, and there was an annoyance in her eyes as if she had been snatched away from a tiger's mouth.

I just targeted the sucker and haven’t even received the gift yet. How can I let others bully me?

None of the doors!

"Rongchang..."

Princess Duanning, who had lost face in front of her sister, stood up awkwardly and tried to pull the other person's sleeve, but she didn't know what to say.

Pei, who was being stepped on, shouted angrily.

"Princess Rongchang, I am not only Princess Duanning's aunt in charge of etiquette, but also an elder in your clan! As a princess of the royal family, not only do you not respect your elders, but you also dare to beat me up? I will definitely file a complaint with the clan leader!"

Pei was so angry that she was shaking all over. She never dreamed that she, who had lived a respectable life all her life, would one day be trampled under the feet of a junior!
