"Wow, this door is so short, it must be a dog hole!" Liu Zhenying marveled at the short door.

The others also curiously stretched their heads to look to the other side of the door, and saw four feet appear at the door. Two tall men in blue school uniforms were looking at them curiously.

"Oh, sister Yining actually has two fathers." Shi Yaoyao said in surprise.

Wang Cheng: “…”

Lin Yuzan: "..."

Little Yining pushed through the crowd, put his hands on his hips and said, "Those are my father and uncle, and this is not a dog hole."

"Sister Yining has an uncle?"

Everyone seemed to have discovered something special. They squatted at the secret door and looked at Lin Yuzan and Wang Cheng with silly smiles, "Uncle, hello, uncle."

"You called them the wrong name. It should be uncle or aunt." another person corrected.

"Shouldn't we call him uncle? He looks much younger than my dad." another person said.

Lin Yuzan and Wang Cheng looked at each other, both with helplessness in their eyes. These little girls were too noisy.

"Are you my daughter's classmates?" Lin Yuzan asked first.

"Yes, yes, uncle. We heard that you were also in the girls' school, so we came to visit you." Shangguan Ruyi said. She also took out a jade pendant from her arms and stretched it out from the secret door to give gifts to the two of them.

Both of them burst into laughter when they saw this scene.

"We didn't know you were coming and didn't prepare any gifts. Miss, please take back the jade pendant!" Wang Cheng said with a smile.

"Oh, then..." Shangguan Ruyi stuffed the jade pendant into little Yining's hand and said, "Give it to sister Yining as a gift!"

Others also stuffed the things they brought into Xiao Yining's arms.

Linglong Courtyard was crowded with more than ten people at once, and it became quite lively. As they were still young, they were not very polite, and the two adults did not care.

Wang Cheng also asked the college servant to help him go to the cafeteria to buy some delicious pastries.

These young ladies had never tasted the cakes from Yunfei Academy. Little Yining lived alone in Linglong Courtyard, so she only had to go back when she was on patrol. There was no one to care about her, so everyone moved chairs to the courtyard and learned from the adults to make tea and enjoy the scenery.

Lin Yuzan and Wang Cheng also moved chairs and sat in the yard. They could not read tonight because those little girls asked some strange questions through the secret door, and they had to answer them one by one.

"The pastries in Yunfei Academy are not as delicious as those here. Sister Yining, have you brought our pastries to your father and uncle?" Jin Xingman asked. Her father was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and he also loved to eat. He often asked people to send her delicious food. She was a particularly favored girl in the family. She had a good temper and would bring delicious food to share with everyone when she found it.

"I took it." Xiao Yining would go to the canteen every day to get some food, and the aunts there would give her an extra portion when they saw her. Then they would divide the cakes into two portions, one for Aunt Zhao and Qiu Yi, and one for Dad and Uncle.

"By the way, has your family heard any news that the prince was fined one year's salary and was scolded by the emperor?" Liu Zhenying appeared with a new gossip.

Xiao Yining ate snacks while looking at her. This girl really is a know-it-all and knows all the news.

"The prince is rich and is not afraid of a salary reduction." Jin Xingman said while eating snacks.

"If only I knew why the prince was scolded!" Liu Zhenying said with great regret.

How could they possibly know about royal affairs? However, it was already impressive that Liu Zhenying knew about the prince being scolded.

Little Yining was also very curious about why the prince was being scolded, but this prince... was destined to die early. He died half a year after his father's death and did not even have an heir. In the end, the third prince Sheng Hongyue, who was less than ten years old, ascended the throne, and the male protagonist was officially promoted to regent, starting a shameless life with the female protagonist.

Lin Yuzan and Wang Cheng were both stunned when they heard the unexpected news, but they were not surprised. The prince was indeed much more mediocre than the current emperor, and it was common for him to be scolded. If he had not occupied the position of the eldest son, he would have been replaced long ago.

The little girl always talked a lot, and she let the two know some of the officials' backyard affairs. The two smiled helplessly again. Is this a small intelligence network or a bureau set up by Sister Qing? However, this also shows that Sister Qing is doing well in the girls' school, which makes the two adults feel a little relieved.

Xiao Yining and her group of children also found this interesting and decided to visit the sisters they knew in the girls' school from today. As a member of the group, Xiao Yining also wanted to go with them, but the gift was just a messy lace she made herself, but with practice, she can now make beautiful lace. Her lace also won expensive gifts from the sisters, which was quite a bargain.

Although the nobles in Yanjing were divided into distinct factions, they would not embarrass the young girls. They would politely invite them to drink tea and give them some small gifts. Xiao Yining also met Pu Fanmeng, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, who slapped the hostess on her first day at the girls' school.

Jin Xingman threw herself into her arms and said, "Cousin, I miss you so much. As the saying goes, a day without seeing you feels like three years. We haven't seen each other for more than ten years."

Pu Fanmeng pushed her away in disgust, patted her clothes, and pointed at the cakes that had been prepared long ago, "Just sit there and eat. I knew that a little girl like you would bring your classmates to bully me."

Jin Xingman stuck out her tongue and led everyone to sit on the ground.

Little Yining glanced secretly at the elder sister, then picked up the cake and stuffed it into his little mouth.

Pu Fanmeng looked at this little sister she had never seen before with curiosity. She was well-behaved, dressed neatly, and ate elegantly. She nodded secretly. She was indeed a polite girl. She was much quieter than those children of the same age. No wonder her sisters said that this little girl was shy and quiet, much better than their own sisters.

Little Yining didn't know that visiting someone's room could improve her impression, so she kept glancing outside. Just now, Jin Xingman said that Leng Mengwan lived next door to her cousin.

Oh my god, these two are neighbors. They see each other every day. Will they quarrel every day?

The answer is of course not.

Leng Mengwan listened to the noise coming from next door, thought about the rumors in the girls' school in recent days, and pushed the door open and walked out.

Xiao Yining watched the female lead approaching gracefully. She didn't know if it was because she had already had a very bad impression of her, and now she only felt that she was pretentious. She withdrew her gaze, and even the cake in her mouth didn't feel sweet anymore.

"Sister Meng, why didn't you tell me that a distinguished guest had come? I'll do my best to play the role of host." Leng Mengwan said with a smile. The nanny behind her came in with a plate with cute animal-shaped pastries on it.

I have to say that the heroine has grasped the children's psychology very well. Little Yining's classmates couldn't help but reach out for such cute pastries, and even Yu Ke, the daughter of the richest man, couldn't take her eyes off.

Pu Fanmeng glared at the visitor and said sarcastically, "As expected of you, the granddaughter of King Yu, you can even make such exquisite pastries. I think King Yu is very satisfied with you."

"If Sister Meng is envious, I can also report it to grandfather. It depends on whether grandfather is willing to have another goddaughter." Leng Mengwan was rich after all and was not afraid of her at all.

Pu Fanmeng was so angry that she twisted her handkerchief and wanted to go up and teach him a lesson, but was stopped by the nanny who was accompanying her in the family.

The few little ones who were guests here felt that the atmosphere was not good, so they all sat down and didn't even dare to put food in their mouths.

Don't be fooled by them showing off during their breaks, they are actually very timid.

"Look at Sister Meng's angry look. She scared the younger sisters. Come and eat quickly. This is made by my nanny. She used to serve the Empress Dowager her meals." Leng Mengwan said.

Another nanny from the palace.

Yu Ke couldn't help but look at Lin Yining. Her nanny was also from the palace and seemed to be very familiar with the eunuch chief.

Xiao Yining also looked at the old nanny behind Leng Mengwan. It seemed that the hero really cared about the heroine. They had only been together for a few days, but he had already found a nanny who could save her face, and who was by the side of the empress dowager.

Leng Mengwan glanced at the girls gathered around the low table, and then set her eyes on Lin Yining. "Sister Yining, why don't you eat it? The Queen Mother also praised this cake!"

Only then did everyone notice that Lin Yining's hands were empty and he didn't even touch the pastries that Leng Mengwan brought him.

Xiao Yining: ...If this guy doesn't cut her, you won't be able to sleep tonight, right?

Little Yining thought about the wash basin he received a few days ago, raised his head and said softly, "My father said that we should not accept gifts from people we don't like, and the same applies to food."

I don't like you, it's very clear.

Leng Mengwan's face darkened, and her eyes darkened when she looked at little Yining, then returned to normal, and she just smiled, "Yining is so straightforward."
