The two of them traveled through the Tang Dynasty to open a supermarket, and the little Sizi was sup
Chapter 413 The Little Princess Prepares Her Own Food!
The little princess wiped her drool with her tiny hand, then took a bite of the pork cracklings.
"Wow~ Little Nang~ This smells so good~ It's amazing~"
The little princess exclaimed in surprise, then took another bite.
The crispy pork cracklings become more and more fragrant with each chew, and the aroma of the oil mixed with the saltiness is simply irresistible.
The little princess chewed quickly, her cheeks bulging like a little hamster storing food.
"It's so good!" the little princess mumbled between chews, her short legs swinging happily.
Seeing the little princess's adorable appearance, Xiao Ran's heart softened. He picked up a few more pieces of appropriately sized food and put them into her bowl, instructing her, "Eat slowly, Sizi. There's still plenty left. Be careful not to burn yourself."
The little princess nodded, her little mouth still moving.
Li Shimin also picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, nodding, "Not bad, I have eaten this kind of fried pork crackling before, but none of them are as delicious as today's."
Empress Zhangsun was also tempted by the aroma. She took a small bite and nodded in praise: "The heat control is excellent. It's crispy but not burnt, oily but not greasy. The salt sprinkled on it enhances the aroma even more."
Xiao Ruoying and Li Lizhi had already started eating. The pork cracklings in the bowls of Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang were a bit too big, so they hadn't cooled down yet and they could only keep blowing on them.
After finishing another piece of pork cracklings, the little princess looked at Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang, then at the remaining pork cracklings in her own bowl, and put a piece in each of their bowls.
"Second Sister~ Seventeenth Sister~ Seventh Duck~ This isn't hot~"
Princess Chengyang smiled gently at the little princess, "Thank you, Sizi."
Princess Gaoyang even put the pork cracklings directly into her mouth, exclaiming, "These pork cracklings are so delicious!"
A bowl of pork cracklings was disappearing at a visible rate. The little princess was eating with great enthusiasm, and some oil stains got on her mouth, nose, and even her little face, but she was completely immersed in the delicious and fragrant pork cracklings.
Xiao Ran picked up a wet wipe from the side. "Sizi, look up and wipe your face. Your face is all oily from eating."
The little princess obediently looked up as Xiao Ran wiped her face, but her eyes remained fixed on the bowl, unwilling to look away.
Xiao Ran wiped it clean and then let the little princess continue eating.
No matter how clean it is now, it will get dirty again when the little princess continues to eat.
"Alright, Sizi, keep eating," Xiao Ran said.
The little princess quickly picked up her chopsticks and ate another piece of pork cracklings.
However, although pork cracklings are fragrant, they are made from rendered fat, and eating too much can be greasy. After the little princess ate seven or eight pieces, her pace gradually slowed down. She patted her round little belly, her brows furrowed slightly, and whispered to Xiao Ran, "Little darling~ I don't want to eat seven anymore~"
That's what she said, but the little princess's eyes were still fixed on the pork cracklings in the bowl. Thinking of the crispy and fragrant smell of the pork cracklings, the little princess's mouth watered again, but she couldn't eat them because they were too greasy.
The little princess pouted, "Little rascal~ why can't I get out of bed~"
Xiao Ran chuckled and pinched the little princess's cheek. "This is made of oil. No matter how fragrant it is, you'll get tired of it if you eat too much. Does Sizi feel nauseous or have an upset stomach right now?"
The little princess shook her head, "No, I just feel a bit hungry, but I'm not full!"
Clearly, the little princess didn't understand why she couldn't eat even though her stomach wasn't full.
Xiao Ran said, "Eating too much isn't good either. Let's eat next time."
Although the little princess said that her stomach was not upset, Xiao Ran still asked Yu Shu to boil a pot of hawthorn water for her to drink. Not only the little princess, but they could also drink it together, which would help to cut through the greasiness.
After drinking it, the little princess was visibly much happier.
The greasiness subsided, but the little princess could no longer eat the pork cracklings. Just then, the little princesses of Chengyang and Gaoyang also stopped eating them, so the three little princesses went to play hand in hand.
After a while, Yu Shu and Xiang Cao finished rendering the remaining pork fat. In addition to another pot of golden and shiny pork cracklings, they also got more than half a pot of clear, slightly yellow, and not completely solidified pork fat. After the pork fat cools down, it will turn into a snow-white solid. It is excellent for stir-frying, mixing with rice, or making desserts.
Looking at the lard, Xiao Ran suddenly remembered something delicious. Perfect timing, they hadn't had dinner yet, now they had something to eat.
Although pork cracklings can't be eaten as a meal, I just ate them and I'm not hungry yet.
The three little princesses went off to play. Xiao Ran looked at Empress Zhangsun and asked with concern, "Auntie, were you too sick of the pork cracklings when we were eating them?"
Empress Zhangsun smiled and shook her head, "Don't worry, I'm not a rhinoceros, I won't get sick of it."
Xiao Ran was relieved, and then looked at the hawthorn water in Empress Zhangsun's hand.
"My aunt remembers that you shouldn't drink too much hawthorn water."
Empress Zhangsun nodded with a smile again.
Pregnant women are advised to avoid hawthorn, but it's not like they can't eat any at all. So, it's fine for Empress Zhangsun to drink a couple of sips of hawthorn water. Xiao Ran was just giving her a heads-up.
Empress Zhangsun was naturally aware of all this, but she also knew that it was Xiao Ran's way of showing concern for her, so she accepted it with a gentle expression.
Yu Shu and Xiangcao poured the lard into the jar and then started stir-frying pork cracklings. However, apart from this stir-fry with pork cracklings, the rest of the dishes were all vegetarian, since the pork cracklings were already oily enough.
Soon, the stir-fried dishes were ready, and the rice was served.
Xiao Ran ladled out a bowl of porridge and asked, "Who wants rice mixed with lard?"
The aroma of rice mixed with lard immediately caught Xiao Ruoying's attention, and she was the first to respond, "Brother, give me a bowl!"
Xiao Ran nodded and poured some still-uncured lard onto the freshly cooked rice. The lard melted instantly upon contact with the heat, seeping into the gaps between every grain of rice and releasing an even more enticing aroma of oil. Then, Xiao Ran drizzled a little soy sauce on top and sprinkled some chopped green onions on top. The lard rice was ready.
"Thank you, brother."
Xiao Ruoying eagerly reached out and took it, then mixed the rice again and took a big bite.
"It tastes just like it did when I was a kid! It smells so good!"
Xiao Ruoying's expression is very similar to that of the little princess. She even gave up chopsticks and switched to using a spoon.
The little princess swallowed hard, "Little Nang-jun~ I also want some pork lard rice~"
"Okay, give Sizi a bowl too."
As he spoke, Xiao Ran also mixed a bowl of rice for the little princess, but he didn't put in as much lard. One reason was that children's stomachs are a bit weak, and another was that the little princess had already been too full of grease, so it was better for her to eat less now.
The little princess picked up a spoon, scooped up a big mouthful of rice, and her eyes instantly lit up like searchlights.
"This is so delicious!" The little princess thought this pork lard rice was even tastier than pork cracklings!
Xiao Ruoying nodded frantically, "Yes, this pork lard rice is the most delicious."
Finally, everyone at the table ordered a bowl of rice mixed with lard, and before the lard could even be used to cook any dishes, quite a bit of it was already gone.
After dinner, Xiao Ran took the little princess to wash her hands and face, and then watched the three little princesses continue to play with building blocks, even playing house with the blocks, and giving each block a name.
Although they might forget which building block was which in a little while, the three little princesses still had a lot of fun. "Sizi, let's go to sleep," Xiao Ran said.
The little princess put down the building blocks she was holding.
"I'm so excited! Wait till I wake up!"
As she spoke, the little princess, along with the Chengyang little princess and the Gaoyang little princess, put all the building blocks in their hands into the box, closed the lid, and placed it in the toy cabinet. Then they ran towards Xiao Ran and took his hand.
"Time for bed~"
After washing up, Xiao Ran and the little princess lay down on the bed and slept soundly through the night.
The next day, after waking up in the morning, I did the same familiar routine of choosing clothes and applying lotion, and then went to eat.
During the meal, the little princess saw the jar containing lard.
"Little Nang-kun~ What's this?"
The little princess pointed to the jar and said.
Xiao Ran glanced at it and said, "Sizi, have you forgotten? This is the jar used to store yesterday's lard."
The little princess nodded, "Is that so? Then can we still have pork lard rice today?"
There's nothing wrong with granting this request.
"Of course, you can eat whatever you want."
Upon hearing this, the little princess immediately smiled happily.
After breakfast, the three little princesses took their little backpacks and went to the snack cabinet.
Previously, Xiao Ran would pack snacks for the three little princesses, but now the three little princesses get them themselves.
"Sizi, shall we get a bag of beef jerky?" Princess Gaoyang said.
The little princess nodded and took out a bag of beef jerky.
This beef jerky wasn't the kind that came in a big package on brown paper when Li Yuan sent it back. Instead, it was beef jerky that Yu Shu and Xiang Cao later repackaged in sealed bags, with about ten pieces in each bag, which was more than enough for the three little princesses.
A bag of beef jerky was placed inside, and then the three little princesses scanned the snack cabinet.
"We brought this candy~" The little princess took out the wax bottle candy.
This candy box was very large, and of course the three little princesses couldn't take it all.
Xiao Ran usually trains the three little princesses' practical skills, so he doesn't help them and just lets them decide what to do.
The little princess looked at the wax bottle candy, and then at Xiao Ran.
"Little Pouch~ I want this bag~"
The little princess picked up the sealed bag containing beef jerky and shook it.
Xiao Ran smiled, "Okay, I'll get it for Si Zi right away."
As he spoke, Xiao Ran went to the kitchen and took out a sealed bag.
The little princess took the sealed bag and started filling it with wax candy along with the other little princesses, Chengyang and Gaoyang. When the little princess saw the largest mooncake inside, her little hands were itching to grab it.
"Second sister~ Seventeenth sister~ Let's get this duck~" the little princess said, pointing to the mooncake wax bottle candy.
Princess Gaoyang quickly shook her head, "Sizi, that's too big, can you finish it by yourself?"
Just as the little princess was about to say that she could, Princess Gaoyang added, "Besides, our break time is only ten minutes, and it's a little longer during the long break, but can you finish eating in that time?"
Although the little princess loves to eat and her little mouth is never still, she is too small to eat much even if she keeps talking.
Moreover, the little princess was able to listen to what he was told. Hearing what Princess Gaoyang said, she took her hand off the big mooncake.
Princess Chengyang picked up a wax bottle candy with a rose on it. "Sizi, shall we take this? We can finish it, and it's pretty too."
These rose wax bottle candies can be eaten in about two bites each, so you don't have to worry about them being too small and accidentally swallowing them after chewing them, or not being able to finish them. Plus, they're pretty and fit the aesthetic of a little princess.
"Okay~ We want this~" the little princess said, picking out several rose-shaped wax candies and some shapeless, ball-shaped wax candies, and finally putting them into two sealed bags.
After putting the wax bottle candy into their schoolbags, the three little princesses took a small box to the kitchen, filled it with a few pieces of rice cake that had just been baked that morning, and put them into their schoolbags.
Finally, they asked Xiao Ran to open the refrigerator for them, and each of them took out a small peach and a bottle of milk before they were done.
The snacks were distributed in the backpacks of the three little princesses. The little princess patted her backpack full of snacks and took Xiao Ran's hand.
"Little Nang-kun~ We're off to school, ducks~"
The little princess smiled happily. She quite liked going to school. Although she couldn't play or look for Xiao Ran during class, she also made many friends.
Xiao Ran led a group of people to the kindergarten. When they arrived, classes had not yet started, but there were already quite a few children inside.
After all, there's nothing to do at home, so it's better to come to kindergarten and play with other children.
Nowadays, most families who attend kindergarten have similar recreational facilities at home, such as swings and slides. Since they have been attending kindergarten for some time now, these facilities are no longer so novel to them.
Although the facilities themselves aren't that fun, they become fun when you have a lot of friends.
So when Xiao Ran and the others arrived, they heard a burst of laughter and cheerful chatter.
The scene became even more lively when the little princess appeared.
The little princess is adorable, young, and the class monitor, so she is very popular in her class.
Just then, they saw the little princess coming over, and a group of children greeted her one by one, to which the little princess returned the greetings with a smile.
Xiao Ran first led the three little princesses to the classroom and put down their schoolbags. The little princesses took out wax bottles of candy from their schoolbags and looked at Xiao Ran.
"Little Nang-kun~ I want to have a seven-duck feast with my friends~"
It was just some candy, so Xiao Ran naturally wouldn't object. However, he still cautioned, "You can share it with your friends, but don't eat too much of this candy, or your teeth will rot."
As he spoke, fearing that the little princess might not understand the seriousness of the matter, Xiao Ran emphasized, "If her teeth are rotten, Si Zi won't be able to eat delicious food anymore."
The little princess quickly covered her mouth, "Wojidao~ Wobuqiduoduo~"
Xiao Ran nodded in satisfaction. (End of Chapter)
