Chapter 37: Befriending
"My aunt said that I was young and didn't know how to be polite, and I was afraid that I would make a mistake and make you unhappy, so I asked her to accompany me." Xie Wanqing patiently explained to her.
"I think you're very good, where don't you know the etiquette, and besides, I don't care about so many false courtesies, what do you care about so many false courtesies when two children intersect." Sun Xiaoxiao said nonchalantly.
Sun Xiaoxiao is eight years old this year, only one year older than Xie Wanqing. As the daughter of the general's mansion, since she was a child, there have been many daughters of unknown families rushing to make friends with her, she is naturally hearty, but not stupid, which people are flattering and which people are sincere She can see at a glance, so until now, there are no friends to talk to.
The last time I saw Xie Wanqing at the Discernment Conference, the two talked very happily, she was quick to talk, and Xie Wanqing was also blunt, so the two soon became friends.
But this invitation is not all Sun Xiaoxiao's meaning.
If it was according to her meaning, she must have asked Xie Wanqing to go out for autumn and ride a horse to wander around the countryside on the outskirts of the city, how could she be bored in the general's mansion.
"Actually, inviting you here today is also what my mother meant." She looked at Xie Wanqing and said cautiously, afraid that she would be unhappy.
Sun Xiaoxiao's mother, that is the wife of the General's Mansion, but she has never crossed paths with the Lady of the General's Mansion, whether she has known each other in her previous life or in this life, how can she be invited? She is just a concubine, how can He De be invited by the General's Mansion?
Xie Wanqing was puzzled in her heart, twisted her eyebrows and asked, "I don't know what the general's wife means?" ”
"Don't you know?" Sun Xiaoxiao looked at her in surprise.
"Know what?"
Seeing the look of doubt on Xie Wanqing's face, Sun Xiaoxiao finally confirmed that Xie Wanqing was indeed still in the dark now.
"Now it's spread all over the outside, Xie Wanqing, the second lady of the Hou Mansion of Anyang, has been praised by the protector of the country, I don't know what kind of strange woman she is." Sun Xiaoxiao smiled at her teasingly.
What a strange woman, Xie Wanqing is now just a little girl who is one year younger than her, and she is still a milk doll. She thought it was funny when she thought about the rumors outside. The more those people spread the word, the more they didn't like it, and they said that Xie Wanqing was like a fairy.
Xie Wanqing was confused by Sun Xiaoxiao, "Dare to ask who the Protector Mage is?" She asked, puzzled. She didn't remember who the Great Zhou Emperor had canonized as a protector.
"Don't you know Master Dufa?" Sun Xiaoxiao looked at her strangely, Xie Wanqing's news was too closed.
It's better to say that Xie Wanqing hasn't heard of the comments from the market that came later, but she doesn't even know about such a big thing as Dufa being named a national teacher.
But what Sun Xiaoxiao didn't know was that although the people of Da Zhou were open, it was not out of place for the girls to walk outside, but the daughter of a wealthy family only occasionally went out to walk on the street, and they had a lot to learn and didn't have so much time; Second, if the young ladies learn badly outside, their temperament will be wild, and they will want to run out all day long, which is terrible, so they are all controlled by their grandmothers.
Sun Xiaoxiao was born in the General's Mansion, there are not so many rules and regulations in the mansion, and the old lady and the general's wife are also determined by her temperament, so she often goes to wander on the street, and she has to find out the ins and outs of any news outside. I like to listen to those gossips to relieve boredom.
But Xie Wanqing is different, a concubine detained in the backyard, powerless, and she doesn't know anything about the news outside.
"Master Watatsu...... It's a fate to meet once, could it be that he is ......" Xie Wanqing suddenly remembered that in the previous life, Dufa was also a protector mage, but she didn't go to the discernment conference at that time, nor did she know Dufa, so naturally she didn't intersect, so she was not impressed.
It's no wonder that when she met at Shouxi Academy this time, she always felt that the name Dufa was impressive. But I couldn't remember it for a while.
Sun Xiaoxiao nodded at her: "Yes, yes, Master Dufa was named the Protector of the Country not long ago, and all the magnates in the capital knew the name Dufa for a while." Not long ago, Master Dufa was invited by the Shouxi Academy, but he only stayed for less than half an hour before throwing off his sleeves and leaving, saying that he had no chance with them, and it was better to have a good chat with you at the discernment conference. ”
"What?" Xie Wanqing looked suspicious.
"So, now there are rumors outside about how powerful you are, and many people are thinking about you, but I just preempted you." Sun Xiaoxiao joked.
Xie Wanqing was not angry when she heard her say this, Sun Xiaoxiao is the noble concubine of the General's Mansion, coupled with her temperament, even if this invitation is mixed with some of the general's wife, but Sun Xiaoxiao must agree to it, otherwise she will not go to the gate of the General's Mansion to pick up people in person.
"Then how do you know that I'm not here to slap you today?" Xie Wanqing raised her eyebrows and said.
Sun Xiaoxiao laughed out loud when she saw this, poked her forehead with her finger and said, "Then let's take what we need, and don't dislike anyone." ”
What Sun Xiaoxiao hates the most is that someone is twisting and turning with her, talking about rules and etiquette, so Xie Wanqing jokes with her so straightforwardly, but it is right to her heart.
The two of them chatted happily here, but Xie Wanyun was left aside, and she didn't know how many complaints she had in her heart. But it's not good to come forward and disturb, Sun Xiaoxiao doesn't like her, Xie Wanyun can see it. Naturally, he will no longer be stupid enough to come forward to attract suspicion. Now that the two of them finally finished talking, they continued to follow the two to Sun Xiaoxiao's courtyard.
The General's Mansion is small in people, and although it occupies a small area, it still looks open and empty. The three of them walked for a while before they arrived at Sun Xiaoxiao's courtyard.
Different from Xie Wanqing's yard, Sun Xiaoxiao's yard has a special weapons room, with knives, guns and sticks, it is said that the general specially built it for her, Sun Xiaoxiao will learn whichever one she likes.
"Well, haven't you seen it?" Sun Xiaoxiao pointed to the shelves full of weapons and showed them.
Xie Wanqing shook her head, she really hadn't seen it.
As soon as she talked about weapons, Sun Xiaoxiao was full of energy, and she pulled Xie Wanqing to introduce her to those weapons one by one, what they were, how to use them, and how they came to them, and they were carefully explained one by one.
General Sun has a son and a daughter under his knees, Sun Xiaoxiao is the eldest daughter, and the son is young. What he likes the most is Sun Xiaoxiao's temperament, follow him, and he is smart, so he has been spoiled by Sun Xiaoxiao since he was a child.
If it weren't for the general's wife and the old lady reminding her on the side, as the concubine of the general's mansion, Sun Xiaoxiao still had to learn some etiquette and rules, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, otherwise she would inevitably be ridiculed by other nobles when she went out. General Sun is afraid that he is going to take Sun Xiaoxiao to the frontier to raise him.
Therefore, although Xie Sun smiled and laughed, the teacher of Shouxi Academy blew his nose and glared, and he took advantage of the end of the year to sue him every year.
