The two of them traveled through the Tang Dynasty to open a supermarket, and the little Sizi was sup

When I woke up from my nap, the bamboo rat was already stewed.

The little princess pulled Xiao Ran along and rushed to the kitchen.

"Can a mouse be spicy or not?"

The little princess couldn't help but drool when she thought about Xiao Ran saying that bamboo rats were delicious.

Bamboo rats were indeed edible. By this time, the bamboo rats had been chopped into pieces, making them unrecognizable. Even Li Lizhi, who had initially been somewhat resistant, became curious.

"Is this bamboo rat really edible?" Li Li asked.

Although she rationally knew that the bamboo rat was definitely edible, Li Lizhi still asked again.

Xiao Ran brought the stewed bamboo rat to the table, first serving a bowl to each of the three little princesses, and then serving himself a piece. To be honest, this was also his first time eating bamboo rat.

After the food was divided, Xiao Ran looked at Li Lizhi and said, "It's okay, of course you can eat it. And look, after it's chopped up like this, you can't tell at all that it was a bamboo rat. Just pretend you don't know what's inside."

After hearing what Xiao Ran said, Li Lizhi was not so resistant anymore.

By this time, the little princess was already eating bamboo rat meat.

"Sizi, how is it? Is this bamboo rat delicious?" Xiao Ran asked.

The little princess, with meat in her mouth, nodded repeatedly.

"Good! Spicy and delicious!"

Xiao Ran looked at the bamboo rat meat in the bowl, thought for a moment, and then boldly took a bite. To his surprise, it tasted pretty good.

Xiao Ruoying has always been bold, and she had already started eating.

Now only Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang remain.

Princess Yuzhang was very self-aware. Regardless of whether she could tell that the creature was a bamboo rat or whether it tasted good or not, she simply couldn't accept it. So she didn't force herself to eat it, no matter how delicious it was.

Li Lizhi was different. She hesitated for a long time, and finally, with a look of resignation, she took a small bite.

“This looks pretty delicious,” Li Lizhi said.

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Lizhi looked at the meat in the bowl again, and suddenly closed her eyes.

"But this is a bamboo rat, it looks just like a mouse."

As she spoke, Li Lizhi closed her eyes and took another bite, "But it's so delicious."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Lizhi's expression instantly became very conflicted.

"No, that's a rat!"

Her indecisive look made Xiao Ran laugh.

"Changle, if we don't want this to be a bamboo rat, we can just treat it as chicken."

Li Lizhi closed her eyes, trying to convince herself.

Xiao Ran looked at the little princess again. The little princess didn't seem scared at all, and her mouth was covered in oil from eating.

Seeing that the little princess had finished another piece, Xiao Ran asked, "Is Sizi scared?"

The little princess bit into a piece of meat, her eyes filled with confusion as she looked at Xiao Ran.

"What the heck? Why are you scared?"

Xiao Ran said, "Is that a bamboo rat in your bowl? Aren't you afraid, Si Zi?"

In fact, the little princess never saw what a bamboo rat looked like; to her, bamboo rat was just a name.

So the little princess shook her head, "No! Mice are good at this! I'm not afraid of being pinched!"

Xiao Ran laughed, "So, as long as it tastes good, that's all that matters."

Li Lizhi, who was eating while feeling scared, was amused by the little princess's words.

A single bamboo rat doesn't yield much when stewed, and since there were many of them, it was enough for everyone to share, so they finished eating quickly.

After finishing her meal, the little princess licked her lips.

"Little Nang-kun~ I'm going to play~"

The little princess led the Chengyang little princess and the Gaoyang little princess into the courtyard.

The bamboo shoots that Xiao Ran and the others dug up were also lying in the yard, and the outer bamboo shoot skins had not yet been peeled off.

This was originally supposed to be Yu Shu and Xiang Cao's job, but they were busy stewing bamboo rats and didn't have time to do it.

Looking at the pile of bamboo shoots, the little princess ran off to find Xiao Ran again.

"Little Nangjun~ Seven Bamboo Shoots Duck~"

Seeing the little princess's greedy eating habits, Xiao Ran leaned over and touched her belly.

"Isn't Sizi already full? Why does he want to eat more?"

The little princess shook her head, "No~ We'll be at seven tonight~"

The little princess wasn't unaware of hunger or fullness; she was simply thinking about dinner.

Xiao Ran looked at the bamboo shoots in the yard and smiled, "Okay, how about we eat bamboo shoots tonight?"

The little princess nodded repeatedly, and then took the Chengyang little princess and the Gaoyang little princess to play again.

Xiao Ran and his group brought back quite a lot of bamboo shoots, more than they could possibly finish in one meal. So Yu Shu and Xiang Cao discussed making the rest into pickles.

Although this was their first time making it, it was just a few bamboo shoots. Even if they accidentally ruined it, it wouldn't matter. They should always try new things.

Even Xiao Ran went to help.

First, peel off the outer skin of the bamboo shoots, then cut them into strips.

The three little princesses were running and jumping in the courtyard when they saw Xiao Ran and his group of people come out and sit together. The little princesses quickly ran over.

"Little Nang~ What are you guys doing~"

Xiao Ran pointed to the bamboo shoots on the ground.

"We're preparing bamboo shoots, Sizi, do you want to come and help?"

The little princess sat down next to Xiao Ran, "I want a duck~"

As she spoke, the little princess imitated Xiao Ran's actions, peeling off the bamboo shoot skin layer by layer.

Peeling bamboo shoots is very simple and stress-relieving; the little princess treated it like a game.

In the courtyard, a group of people sat together peeling bamboo shoots and chatting, and laughter could be heard from time to time.

Hearing this voice, Empress Zhangsun upstairs also revealed a gentle smile.

"That's wonderful," Empress Zhangsun said with a smile.

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Yes, that's wonderful."

The couple smiled at each other, and Empress Zhangsun suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, did you eat the bamboo rat?"

Li Shimin laughed heartily, "Of course I'll eat it. I'm not afraid of that stuff."

Xiao Ran served Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun a bowl of bamboo rats. There was nothing wrong with that, since neither Li Shimin nor Empress Zhangsun knew what bamboo rats were. But the problem was that Li Shimin was very curious.

Upon hearing Xiao Ran mention bamboo rats, he was puzzled, wondering what bamboo rats were. So he looked it up. After seeing the pictures, Li Shimin didn't react much, but Empress Zhangsun found it hard to accept. In the end, Empress Zhangsun didn't touch any of them and let Li Shimin eat them all.

However, Empress Zhangsun did not expect that Li Shimin would actually eat it.

"Your Majesty, don't you find this hard to accept?" Empress Zhangsun asked.

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "Back when we were fighting, what kind of hardship didn't we endure? This is nothing but bamboo rats. Besides, they taste pretty good."

Empress Zhangsun remained silent. She could endure hardship herself, but this was different from suffering.

However, Empress Zhangsun didn't say much in the end, but instead talked to Li Shimin about other topics.

Downstairs, Xiao Ran and the others had almost finished preparing the bamboo shoots; the rest was up to Yu Shu and Xiangcao.

"Little Nangjun~ I want to see Yangyang~"

"it is good."

Xiao Ran turned on the TV and let the three little princesses watch cartoons. The Sheep Boy cartoon has more than 500 episodes in total. Even though the three little princesses didn't watch it all the time and interspersed it with other cartoons, this cartoon is now coming to an end.

Even after watching the final episode, the little princess was still a little unsatisfied.

"Little Nang-kun~ I still want to see Yang Yang and Duck~"

Xiao Ran thought for a moment and said, "How about we look at other Sheep and Goat series instead?"

Although this animated series only has a little over 500 episodes, there are many other series and franchises.

The little princess didn't care about any particular series, as long as she could watch it, so she happily agreed.

Xiao Ran searched on TV and clicked on "Brave the City of Four Seasons".

Many new characters appeared in the film, and the three little princesses watched it with great interest.

Seeing that they were watching intently, Xiao Ran began to attend to his own business.

There are some goods to be purchased from the Tang Dynasty. The potatoes are growing very well, but we don't know if the sweet potatoes are still diseased. There's also the matter of cement, but this is something that Li Shimin and Li Chengqian are discussing, and it has nothing to do with Xiao Ran.

In short, Xiao Ran had already told them his ideas. As for how to implement them, that would depend on their own ideas.

Soon, it was time for dinner.

Tonight's dinner will feature bamboo shoots as the main dish.

The little princess picked up a piece of braised bamboo shoots, put it in her mouth, and chewed it.

"Good, good, crispy duck!"

The little princess really liked the taste and texture of braised bamboo shoots.

Besides braised bamboo shoots, there were also stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots, and so on. The little princess ate to her heart's content.

Li Lizhi also said, "These bamboo shoots are really delicious. They feel fresher than the ones that my husband bought a few days ago."

Xiao Ran laughed and said, "That's right. Although that uncle said he dug it up that day, he was just saying it casually. If he really went there that day, he wouldn't have had time to set up a stall. So it must have been dug up the day before at the earliest. Anyway, you can't tell."

Li Lizhi nodded, "That's true."

After dinner, the three little princesses went to watch cartoons again.

Xiao Ran then took out the jigsaw puzzle.

Seeing the puzzle, Xiao Ruoying said helplessly, "No, brother, you haven't given up on this puzzle yet?"

Xiao Ran nodded, "Let's take our time piecing it together."

Xiao Ruoying had no choice but to join in and help with the work.

After such a long period of effort, we're now about halfway through the puzzle.

It's all thanks to whoever had nothing better to do that they took it out and put it together so quickly.

Otherwise, you want it to end up like this? Just wait and see.

The three little princesses sat in front of the TV watching cartoons, while Xiao Ran and his group sat on the floor doing a jigsaw puzzle. The puzzle was only put away when Xiao Ran realized it was getting late and it was time to go to bed.

"Sizi, let's go upstairs to sleep," Xiao Ran called to the little princess.

The little princess peeked out from the sofa and held up a finger at Xiao Ran.

"Little Nang-kun~ I want to see more~ How about just the last episode~"

Seeing the little princess's adorable and charming manner, how could Xiao Ran possibly refuse?

Xiao Ran walked to the little princess's side, picked her up and put her on his lap, saying, "Okay, but this is the last episode. After we watch it, we'll go to sleep."

The little princess nodded.

Xiao Ruoying, Li Lizhi, and Princess Yuzhang also came to join in the fun.

Compared to its main storyline, the other stories in this animated series are more mature. In fact, it can be said that it is no longer just for children; adults can also watch it without finding it childish.

After the cartoon episode ended, the little princess hugged Xiao Ran's neck and went to sleep obediently.

However, Xiao Ruoying seemed completely absorbed in watching. Xiao Ran sighed and looked at Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang.

"How about Fanyin and Seventeen sleep with me tonight too?"

Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang nodded happily and followed Xiao Ran upstairs.

After a night.

When Xiao Ran opened his eyes the next day, he saw the three little princesses lying on the bed, one next to the other, with Princess Gaoyang's legs resting on Princess Chengyang's stomach.

Princess Chengyang frowned slightly, clearly feeling uncomfortable being pressed down by Princess Gaoyang's legs, but she was powerless to resist.

If we're talking about comfort, the little princess is the one sleeping the most comfortably; she's even drooling.

"Sizi Fanyin Seventeen, wake up." Xiao Ran patted each of the three little princesses.

The little princess was already used to this routine, so she was the first to wake up.

"Little Nang-jun~" The little princess rubbed her eyes.

Xiao Ran laughed and said, "Si Zi is awake. Quickly wipe your mouth; you're drooling in your sleep."

The little princess wiped her mouth and found it was indeed wet.

“Hehe~ Little Nangjun~ Wash your hands~” the little princess said to Xiao Ran.

"it is good."

Xiao Ran first carried the little princess down, and the little princess walked towards the bathroom by herself.

At this moment, Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang also woke up.

Xiao Ran laughed and said, "You two little lazybones have finally woken up."

Princess Chengyang removed Princess Gaoyang's leg from her body and then greeted Xiao Ran.

"Good morning, brother," said the little princess of Chengyang.

Xiao Ran pinched the face of the little princess of Chengyang.

"Good morning, Fanyin. Go wash up quickly. Sizi is in the bathroom too."

Princess Chengyang obediently got out of bed.

Next up is Princess Gaoyang.

"Good morning, bro!"

Princess Gaoyang yawned and said, "Brother, I'm going to wash up!"

With that, Princess Gaoyang got out of bed and went to the bathroom.

Soon, all three little princesses had finished washing up.

Xiao Ran applied the baby cream that Xiao Ruoying had bought for the three of them.

The little princess smelled her hands and took a deep breath.

"It smells so good!"

As she spoke, the little princess leaned close to the face of the Chengyang little princess and smelled it again.

"Second sister smells so good too~"

Princess Gaoyang raised her hand, "Sizi, come and smell me, see if I smell good?"

The little princess obediently sniffed it, then clapped her hands and said, "Seventeenth Sister smells good too~"

After applying baby cream to the three little princesses, Xiao Ran took them downstairs for dinner.

I don't plan to go out today, so I didn't change the three little princesses' clothes; they're still wearing their pajamas.

The little princess's pajamas are bunny-themed, they look adorable, and she loves them very much.

After taking the three little princesses downstairs, Yu Shu and Xiangcao made vegetable porridge for breakfast. Of course, it contained not only vegetables, but also mushrooms, carrots, dried scallops, and diced meat, making it very flavorful. The rice even popped into tiny grains, and every bite was fragrant.

Besides porridge, Yu Shu and Xiang Cao also bought fried dough sticks, soy milk, and steamed xiaolongbao (soup dumplings). (End of Chapter)
