"Mom!" they both said in unison.

"Well, Chen'er, Jin'er, this is Her Royal Highness the Princess. Please pay your respects."

The two of them hadn't reacted yet, but their mouths moved faster than their brains, "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Be flat!"

"Thank you, Princess."

The two of them stared at them blankly, wondering why the eldest princess came to the Xie family?

However, it was just a fleeting thought and had nothing to do with them anyway.

"Mom, this is milk tea, less ice and less sugar. My second sister and I took two sips and it was absolutely delicious." Bai Chen recalled the refreshing feeling just now and was so happy.

Bai Jin also placed the dishes he brought back on the table in the pavilion, "Mom, Shuanghua asked me to bring these to you. She said they are new dishes in the restaurant, so I wanted you to try them."

Yun Zhihan couldn't wait any longer, "Princess, try it."

"Good." Murong Yu picked up the chopsticks, took a bite and put it into his mouth, nodding and praising, "This dish tastes very unique, like a dish I had when I was a child."

After saying that, she took a few more bites.

Biyu was surprised. Her young lady ate very little in the palace and was very picky. How come she changed so quickly after coming to the Xie family?

Yun Zhihan saw that she was eating happily, then looked at her eldest son beside her, and then looked at the eldest princess quietly, her face flushed and ears, at a loss.

Alas, this child is really hard to take care of, and the mother has to do it herself.

"Yuan'er, what are you doing there? Why don't you quickly scoop a spoonful of milk tea for the princess to taste?"

Boom!

Murong Yu and Xie Baiyuan's heartbeats quickened at the same time. They accidentally glanced at each other and immediately looked away.

"Yes, mother."

He walked over to the two of them, picked up an expensive celadon cup, scooped a spoonful of milk tea into it, but because his heart was beating too fast, his hands shook and he spilled the milk tea all over himself.

Seeing how nervous he was, Murong Yu chuckled and smiled brightly.

Seeing his unpresentable appearance, Yun Zhihan couldn't help but said disdainfully, "You'll pay for the milk tea later, okay?"

Xie Baiyuan looked at his mother aggrievedly, not daring to complain, "I know, mother."

After hearing this, Murong Yu laughed even harder. On the one hand, she felt sympathy for Master Xie, and on the other hand, she thought it was very interesting that the mother and son got along with each other and were not restrained at all.

Bai Yuan placed the milk tea in front of Murong Yu tremblingly, "Your Highness, Princess, please enjoy your meal."

"Thank you so much, sir."

He smiled knowingly and stepped back.

Murong Yu took a sip of the milk tea and it tasted great, except that the sugar content was a bit too much.

"This milk tea has a unique taste. It would be better if it were lighter."

Yun Zhihan's eyes lit up and she smiled, "Princess, I'm afraid it's not that the milk tea is too sweet, but that your mind is playing tricks on you, right?"

As soon as the words came out, Murong Yu blushed and lowered her head to scold, "Madam Xie, are you making fun of me?"

Yun Zhihan didn't dare to do that, and hurriedly explained, "I don't dare."

But he had to speak up for his son, "Princess, please don't blame me. My son has only known how to study since he was young, and he knows nothing else."

What this means is that you need to be patient. The child is still good, but he is not very smart when it comes to emotions.

"Madam Xie is too modest. Mr. Xie behaved neither servilely nor arrogantly in the court today. He is deeply loved by the emperor, who appointed him as a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. Speaking of which, I should also congratulate Madam Xie."

Yun Zhihan quickly stood up and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, and the Princess for your kindness."

"Mrs. Xie, please stand up quickly. Today we are just friends reminiscing about the past. There is no need to be so polite."

"Yes! Princess."

Yun Zhihan saw a few kids standing there stupidly, not knowing what to do, so he ordered, "Bo Chen, go tell Shuang Hua that the restaurant's new dishes and milk tea taste great and can be sold now."

"I'll go right away."

Xie Bochen turned around and ran out. It was too restrictive here and he was not used to it.

She continued to instruct, "Jin'er, the Princess, Guard Jiang, and Miss Biyu are honored guests today. Please help me entertain Guard Jiang and don't neglect him."

"Ah?" Bai Jin was a little surprised. He was a man, shouldn't the eldest brother or the third brother entertain him? Why did he choose himself?

Yun Zhihan saw that she didn't understand, so he winked at her.

This kid, you have read so many books, why don't you put them into practice? Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. This good man is right in front of you, you must not miss the opportunity.

Xie Baijin seemed to understand his mother's intention and could only agree with a wry smile.

"and many more!"

"What else do you want, mother?"

"Bring a cup of milk tea to Guard Jiang."

"understood."

After Xie Baijin walked away, Yun Zhihan asked in a low voice, "Princess, how old is Guard Jiang this year?"

"Twenty-three years old. Why? Madam Xie suddenly asked about him?"

"My daughter is sixteen years old and has reached the age of marriage. I wonder if Guard Jiang has any engagement?"

After Murong Yu understood Yun Zhihan's intention, she answered enthusiastically, "No, Guard Jiang is currently the Chief of the Imperial Guards. He is a person trusted by my father and is loyal and reliable. It's just that this family background..."

"What does the Princess mean?"

Yun Zhihan feels that character is the most important thing, and family background doesn’t matter.

"He is a child my grandmother picked up. She took pity on him and kept him by her side. But don't worry, Madam Xie. My grandmother will never treat him badly in terms of betrothal gifts."

"Princess, this is still a work in progress. I just want to say that as long as Guard Jiang has good character, the rest doesn't matter."

Murong Yu assured, "Madam Xie, rest assured. Guard Jiang is like my brother. Although he has a poor background, he never forgets his roots and never loses his essence. He is someone who can be trusted."

Yun Zhihan silently gave a thumbs up, "I feel relieved with the princess' words."

At this time, Jiang Feng was sitting on the grass, looking into the distance, wondering what he was thinking. A voice pulled him out of his distracted state.

"Guard Jiang."

"Huh? Who are you?" Jiang Feng asked coldly.

"I am Xie Baiyuan's sister, Xie Baijin."

"Miss Xie, what do you want from me?" His expression was still cold.

"My mother was worried that the hospitality was not good enough, so she asked me to bring a cup of milk tea for Guard Jiang to try."

"Women drink it?"

Jiang Feng frowned. He just heard them say that milk tea is sweet and girls will like it very much. But how can a grown man like women's things? Humph! What a joke.

"Thank you, Miss. Please take it back. I have already drunk some tea and I am not thirsty." After saying that, he continued to be in a daze.

Seeing his arrogant look, Xie Baijin lost her patience. Ever since she read "The Art of War", she began to sneer at such arrogant and boastful men. Why is he pretending for no reason?

Women drink it? Why? Is there a difference between the water that men and women drink?

Although Xie Baijin was angry, it was her mother's order after all. Besides, the man was the eldest princess's bodyguard. She was not ready to die yet, so she had no choice but to go forward.
