Chapter 216 Fighting for the Sister
Chapter 216 Fighting for the Sister
“Mother, you can question your son’s taste, but you can’t question his cooking. Sister Xue’s cooking is the best in the world.”
Xu Zijun patted her chest and said confidently, making Xue Li feel embarrassed.
The food my elder sister cooks is indeed quite good, but Xu Zijun's words are far too boastful, showing no humility whatsoever. I feel really embarrassed for her.
"What good food did you eat, my little rascal? Even your mother wants to try it."
Princess Qiling knew her youngest son best. Her Jun'er had eaten all sorts of good things. Whether it was something that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, or swam in the water, he could get it as soon as he wanted it. He was not an ignorant child.
Just who was Miss Xue? She had only met Jun'er once, yet Jun'er praised her as the best girl in the world.
She did develop some interest in the Xue family's young lady.
"When I finish eating and come back, if there are any leftovers, I will ask Sister Xue if I can pack them up and bring them back to Mother."
"Leftovers?! Xu Zijun, how dare you let your mother eat leftovers!"
Princess Qingyue stared wide-eyed at Xu Zijun in disbelief.
She grew increasingly disgusted with her younger brother, especially after comparing him to the young master of the Xue family. She felt that her brother had only come to seek revenge.
"So what if it's leftovers? Second Sister wants some, but we haven't had any yet."
Xu Zijun turned her head away haughtily, ignoring her completely.
"Princess, don't listen to Xu Zijun's nonsense. My elder sister always cooks food that is never left over, not even the soup."
Xue Li's words were even more hurtful than Xu Zijun's, implying that even if you wanted to eat leftovers, you couldn't get any.
"This princess would like to taste what the food made by Miss Xue tastes like. Since there are no leftovers, this princess will reluctantly go with you to the General's Mansion to taste it for herself."
Princess Qingyue is pure, kind, lively, and righteous. However, she and her brother are alike and have no resistance to food.
Hearing her younger brother's words, she decided to swallow her pride and visit the General Zhenguo's mansion. She could bring some gifts, and she wouldn't let them suffer any loss.
"no!"
Xu Zijun glared at her, looking at her warily as if she were a thief, which made Princess Qingyue so angry that she wanted to hit him with a feather duster again.
"Why not!"
"Second sister, don't you have any idea how much you can eat? You can eat the equivalent of three people's food, how can that be enough for others?"
Xu Zijun stiffened her neck, refusing to compromise in the slightest.
"How could I possibly eat enough for three people? You brat, do you want a beating? If it's really not enough, just have Miss Xue cook more food."
Princess Qingyue blushed, clearly lacking confidence.
Doesn't she have any pride? This brat dared to expose her shortcomings in front of outsiders; it really infuriated her.
"Cooking too much food will tire Sister Xue out, and Jun'er can't bear to do that."
Xu Zijun shook her head seriously, almost making Princess Qingyue so angry she died.
“Mother! Can you believe what Xu Zijun is saying? I don’t want him as my younger brother anymore.”
"Mother, Jun'er wants Sister Xue to be my sister."
The siblings, singing in unison, made Princess Qiling so worried she wanted to rub her forehead.
"no!"
Xue Li spoke with righteous indignation.
"why?"
"why?"
The siblings turned their gazes to him simultaneously and asked in unison.
"Elder sister can only be Li'er's older sister."
The little guy was taking it very seriously with a childlike expression.
